Relieved. It v..-.s :: long ride through a desolate an;l dimgerurs country, and the politician s tight to relieve Hie monotony by philosophic musings on his recent vlet sy and embarrassments that even success brings. "Hold up your hands!'’ The stagecoach gave a lurch and stopped. The ray of light that shot into the vehicle turned the spattering rain into myriads of evanescent gems. "What do you want?” asked the politician. with a firmness that showed that he bud faced danger before. "Your money.” “Here it is.” "Your watch and diamond ring.” “They are yours.” "I must say you’re good natured anyhow,” said one of the highwaymen. "Not at all. Are you sure that's all you desire?” “What in thunder did you think we wanted?” "I was afraid"—and the politician's voice trembled a little—"you wanted an office!”—Philadelphia North American. Insect Pests In Braill. I should lake a small gang of practical coffee planters from Ceylon with good digestions to be not ’afraid of chigoes, ticks and Berne dies, to say nothing of ttie dear little mosquito. The writer bad extracted during four years in Brazil no loss than 200 chigoes from underneath every toe nail of both feet. Os all the vile insects on earth the Berne fly Is the worst. She lays tier eggs Inside your flesh ami hatches three very ugly insects an inch long witli three rings of bristles round the body and with sharp nippers. They take about six weeks to develop under your skin, then commence to turn somersaults just when you want to go to sleep after a hard day's work In the sun. The natives of Brazil adopt a novel way of extracting the brute when full grown. They tie on a piece of raw pork and the Berne comes out of your skin and takes a header Into the piece of pigskin.—Ceylon Observer. 1.1 llunK I lintix's “Souvenir.'’ When LI Hung Chang was In Purls, be went to visit the Credit Lyonnais and showed lively Interest In Its halls.

The governor < I the Credit Lyonnais went to the mln later of foreign affairs with a list of the bonds and naked what he was to do It was agreed that It would not do to ask LI to give them up. and the foreign office refunded bls “souvenir de Purls!"

The only railroad in Indiana that has no debt is the electric line from Indianapolis to Franklin, a distance of twenty-three miles.
