Awful Fate of Inartletic Cutter*. Bad tailoring, like sin, makes men uncomfortable and unhappy, but good tailoring, like good actions, makes them feel at ease and glad they are living. The cutter of mi n's clothes should therefore always bear in mind the fact that he is a powerful influence in the world for good if he does good work, but for evil if his work is bad, and should keenly feel that he deserves honor for the one and <ii -grace for the other. If his work i- ba! his punishment, even though it m .y not fit the crime and make him utterly wretched, will surely so fill his days with shame, apprehension, shu iders of horror, snubs and insuits that he will almost hate himself and will wish in every waking hour that night will name and bring him forgetfulness and always through the night will long for day to escape in its light and bustle the biack torments and silent gnawings of a guilty conscience.—Tailor- and Cutter. Cutting a Queen Bee’* Win*. Dallas Lore Sharp describes a method of preventing Lees from swarming in the Country Calendar. Keep your queens clipped. Lay aside your sentiments. your fears of the Society For the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, your ideas that it hurts her. your fears of killing her—and get your scissors Seize her by one wing (if you can’t do better) and. bolding her gently against the frame, snip off one wing. This won't stop the swarming, but it will keep the bees from absconding, for the swarm won't go off without the queen while you are away. So you are often able to induce them to call off the strike and go back to work Clip your queens then, give the bees room, give them shade at the hottest hours if necessary, shake them if they show signs of swarming and keep the colonies strong. The Pictures of Paul Jones. “Paul .Tones.'' says a writer, "was portrayed in every costume that a pi rate could be expected to masquerade n. and bis whiskers were of the lon gest. blackest and curliest. He is por 'rayed in all degrees, from the sardonc gentleman cutthroat to the blood am wounds Bill Bowline type of tar, bin always with as much sofa pillow stuff ing as possible. One portrait presents him in a neat militia uniform, some thing like that of the time of the Mex can war and with the pattern of whis ters afterward known to fame aBurnsides.’ There seems to be on< point of accuracy in all these pictures if they are of the three-quarters or fui length. .Toi.es is always represented with a girdle full of pistols, a habit o< Iress to which he was accustomed.” Trninlng a Cow. T. P.’s London Weekly relates bow lajor Miles Malony of Rallyduff wa; mated one morning to see from hi; e iroom window a little lad driving a ow back and forward again and again ver a ditch and through a fence on his .nd. Hurriedly completing his toilet e rushed out to question the little tres •asser. “What are ye after with tbai ow? Is it to kill the beast ye want?' Kill her! FLure, it's to keep her alivi want." "Keep her alive?” "Sbure t's taicbing her to get her own living am. There isn't a ditch or since ii he barony that"!, held 1 er in afthe ve done wid her.” Then the majo nderstood. The cow. in sac t, was be ng taught to trespass in search of he iwn living. Stonewall Jaekfcou** Lookß, Stonewall Jackson's so-m was tai jaunt and angular. Hi- fe t ai.d hand were large, and his walk was singula) y ungraceful. He always s; >ke quic! ly. in short sentences devoi.; of ora; pent, but to the point.

The World and a Lirin*. It is an old cry that the world owes every man a living. This is a favorite rgument with the lazy and shiftless But the world owes none such a living If a man will not work be shall not ea is a mandate as old as the race Itself But there is another fundamenta sense in which the maxim that the world owes every man a living is pro soundly true. It owes every man r fair chance to earn a decent living And that is all that any self respecting man asks or wants.—Boston Post. Shattering Her Hope*.

Doable Lo««, “I hear you lost your heart up at Miss Sweetley's house the other even ing,” said the gossip. “Yes; and worse than that,” replied the practical lover, “I lost my uni brella.

A Drink Made Sall and Void. The Sunset Mas iziue tehs a st-wy o; the rehabilitation of the character of Johnson Sides, a noted Indian tern perance orator of bygone days: One day he was caught in the act of drinking a glass if wh sky and was fined. Neither Indians nor whites w uld listen then to his temperance 5;.,-e. lies. I’oor Johnson was in de-p.tir. One day. however, he had an inspiration. He asked Senator Doolin of the Nevada legislature to ii s b. e Lis sin by a t of legislature. Senator Doolin was agreeable, and introduced ami carried through "Senate Joint Concurrent Resolution No. 11,” which is as follows: “Resolved. By the senate, the people of the state of Nevada concurring, that the drink of whisky taken by Johns >u Sides on the 17th day of September in the city of Virginia, county of Story, be and is hereby declared null and void.” Thus was Johnson Sides made a good man again. He became at once a power among his own people, resumed bis advocacy of the cause of water and was listened to with great respect. —Cleveland Leader. VA hat a Diplomat la. The London Tall Mall Gazette dis cusses the word “diplomatist.” interpreting it as “one with a double duty and a double responsibility"—to his own country and the country that re ceives bim. The evolution of “diplomatist” from the Greek verb for “to double" is very curious. "Diploma,” a doubling, was specialized as a folded paper and particularly in Roman times an official passport or license. Thus “diplomatic science” down to the end of the eighteenth century meant the science of manuscripts and documents, which explains a modern writer’s strange remark that "there is not a shadow of diplomatic doubt thrown over the integrity of the third gispel." Dr. Murray’s Dictionary assigns the translation to tic y idem meaning to Leibnitz's “Co ’- x .’■•. 'is Gov.um Diplomaticus” ‘ eiitary c ■ ;e of inter national law) and ti e title of a similar French v rk. “D domatic” came to be considered as meaning "international documenta and then the "documentary” dr ped out. t nrhangirii < -*ljs RLisr*. “Circuses,” said ’hi id : .ng : las’er. “have developed, e five nd chang d. From the one ring >f the : ::-f they have grown to three r. rs. pin' an elevated stage, and there are many other improvements. Rut in one particular there has been no change since time began, and that is in the dimensions of the ring. A circus ring is always the same size—forty-two feet nine inches in diameter. Go where you will, you will never find a circus ring with different dimensions from that. A bareback rider can ride best in a ring of this size. All riders train !:> such a ring and all horses are trained in such a ring. There would be trouble for horses and men if the size of the ring should be changed. It would be like changing the size of the baseball diamond, only worse.” — Minneapolis Journal. Ants' Cow Shed*. One of the most interesting studies of insect life is the relationship between ants and plant lice, or *aphids. These plant liee supply honey dew from the juices which they take as food from plants. The ants are very fond of this sweet substance and care for the aphids in a manner that seems to us surprisingly intelligent. They sometimes carry them bodily to a better feeding ground and drive away certain of their enemies. It is claimed that they even build sheds of mud in tbe crotches of shrubs and small trees. On account of this insect relationship one may truthfully call the ants “farmers," the aphids “cows’ and these protecting mud cases “cow sheds.”—St. Nicholas. The Greatest Evil. The Persian author Saadi tells a story of thee sages—a Greek, an Indian ;nd a Persian—who in the presence of the Persian monarch debated this question. Os all evils incident to bu inanity which is the greatest? The Grecian declared, “Old age oppressed with poverty;” the Indian answered. “Pain with impatience.” while the Persian, bowing low. made answer. "The greatest evil. O king, that I can conceive is the couch of death without one good deed of life to light the dark some way.” Am**rl<-Hn Women'* Jewel*. To the average English woman her jewelry is merely an adjunct, having no particular connection with the rest of her toilet, but added at random. Not so with the transatlantic smart woman. She dresses to her jewels and has her gowns made to match them.— London Motorist and Traveler. Jack and Jill In Snrway. A writer on Norway says, "Our familiar nursery friends Jack and Jill are descendants of Hjuki and Bil. the ebbing and flowing tides, the tumbling crests of which, breaking one over another as the waves wash the shore, are rather aptly described in the nursery rhyme.” The Difference. Mrs. Shopleigh— What! Pay $14.99 for a hat like that? Why. it’s outrageous! Salesman—But you forget, madam, it has been especially reduced from sls. Mrs. S.—Oh. in that ease I'll take it. You see.
