“I hope you came out of that last horse trade of yours with n clear conscience.” “Yes." answered Si Shilling, "but it kind o’ worries me. My conscience Is so ouusunlly clear that I can’t hc’p feelin’ I must o' got the wust o’ the trade.”—Washington Star.

Monkeyj Lise Scrapping. "Monkeys arc i.i a class by themselves.* said the firms mau. "If cue of them lias red hair he is sure to lie a dan iy serappor. The K‘St fighter is alwa- - the leader. They hang together and liow and seraie before the boss just like a good many people. Monkeys with red faces and Hat heads will v ..p the life out of those smaller than they are, but will run like the wind when it comes to an even break. A monkey riot Is a funny ; i>ectacle. Even in the ratne cage you will find groups herded together as if there was some class distinction and the lines were drawn tightly, if two of the big ones come together In a row the others generally stand off and let them have It out, but If any of the little ones get to scrapph’g then the father and mother are apt to mix In, and the next step Is a general re..-. We separate them by turning on th ■ hose and punish them by locking up the den so that they cannot get any peanuts from the crowd and hold back their meals. This plan puts them on their good behavior for awhile at least The monkey likes to eat and likes to be noticed.”

Slightly Mixed. They had just set up housekeeping and were working on the plan of economy. The bathtub needed a coat of varnish. Ho promised to attend to it if stie would order the varnish. “You’ll find the varnish In the closet with the groceries, dear,” she said a day or so later, “and the can opener in the knife drawer." He opened the can and, according to his contract, applied the coat of varnish and then left It to dry. The soup for dinner that day had to be abandoned, for somehow it possessed a peculiar paint shop odor that was nauseating. After dinner he took her to inspect ids work on the bathtali. Now that it had dried it had n certain unnatural appearance. The top and sides were streaked, and here and there little lumps clung to it “The man said that was the best varnish," lie explained, taking up the can of varnish for an examination, "but—why, dear, you have varnished the bathtub with the ox tall soup!” "Then It was the varnish we ate, dear," he added, horror stricken. — Lipplneott’s. A Model Hotel "Boots.” It was in a Dublin hotel, and as I closed the bedroom door, says a writer in the Manchester Guardian, I noticed that tlie end of one of my boot laces was inside the room, the boot to which it was attached having been placed as usual outside. When I awoke next morning the boot lace end was still there, and 1 opened the door expecting to find that the boots had not been cleaned, but I was wrong. A very careful hotel servant, a very model among “boots,” had found the lace tightly gripped by the door and rather than disturb me had carefully removed It from the lace holes and carried away the lioot. Presently 1 heard n quiet noise outside the door. The mo lei boots had brought my l>oot.s back again and was Industriously relacing that one which he bad unlaced.

Cheese In the Middle Ages. Cheese must have been a rather dear or scarce nrticle of food in lafi— for it is recorded In the "Black Books" of the Honorable Society of Lincoln’s Inn that at Easter term. 1T<02, it was “agreed by the governors and lieucliers this term that if any one of the society shall hereafter cut cheese 1m moderately at the time of dinner or supper or diall give cheese to any servant or to any other or shall carry it away from the table at any time he shall pay 4 pence for each offense. The butlers of the society shall presort such defaulters weekly under pain of expulsion from office."—Law Times.

Her Test. “When a young man proposes yon should always be careful and test his love,” cautioned the conservative chaperon. "But I go one better, auntie,” twittered the pretty girl. "Do you see tills tiny bottle?” "Yes. Does it contain perfume?" "No; It contains acid. I test the engagement ring.”

Not Very Funny. "I did my best to be entertaining,” said the young man in a voice of sor row. “Did you succeed?” "I’m afraid not. I recited Hamlet’s soliloquy. She looked at me reproachfully for several seconds and then ex claimed. "I don’t think that’s very funny!”—London Telegraph.

His Conscience. "He’s forever prating aliout what bis conscience tells him. What docs his conscience tell him, anyway?” “Apparently it usually tells him what awful sinners his neighbors are.”— Catholic Standard and Times.

Where She Gets Her Ideal. She—I wonder if you are just the kind of man I want. H<—What kind of man do you want? She—1 can hard ly describe him to you. He—Don’t try What’s the name of the book?—St Louis Post-Dispatch.

To Hold Him. Nan—That’s a beautiful solitaire Dick gave you. I wonder if you know what n fickle young man lie is? Fan— Indeed I do! That’s why I made him give mo such an expensive one.—Chi cago Tribune.

A Sad Break. “Our credit man made a bad bre:"; yesterday.” “What was it?” “He told n dumb man that his word was as good ns his bond.” — Detroit free Press.

"force Girts and a Bungalow. By C. B. LEWIS.

Copyrighted 1 . by Associated Literary Press.

The three girls-PI'rence, Molly and Edith—began talking up that bungalow Id January, and long enough before the first April shower they had all their plans i>orfe< ted. It was to be a unique and romantic summer outing. Florence’s father wned a farm on the bay. A frame house had boen erected for the tenant, and an old log house stood vacant In a romantic spot. It was, as Fiorence Informed her two girl chums, a dear, lovely, sweet, just-too-nlce-for-anythlng old log house. It would make such a bungalow ns could not be found for twenty miles up and down the coast. On the hill forty rods back of the log house was the new dwelling, occupied by Farmer Jones, his good, fat wife and his lean son Jacob. The girls would take their meals there and have . no cooking or dishwashing to do. When they wanted to roast clams and potatoes they could build a fire on the shore. Just three girls and no crowds, no i dressing for dinner, no keeping the hair curled: Just three girls, t>oating. fishing and swinging In their hammocks and cantering o’er the dewy grass In the morning: no cards, no bouquets, no flirtations; the fat Mrs. Jones for chaperon, the lean Jacob to run errands, old Jones to drive Into the village once a week after kerosene and baking powder and their mail—the very thought of it produced thrills. Well. It nil came about. They went down early in July to remain for two months. Word had tieen sent to Jones that they wished to nugh it and that he must not remove any of the romance. He obeyed orders. He built three rude bunk-, put In an old table and three chairs and furnished a lamp There were a few panes of glass in the windows, and he did not add to the number; there were a few holes in the roof, and he did not cover them; there was half an acre of pigweeds around tlie house, and he did not mow them down. Mr Joins was romantic himself and appreciated the sentiment In others Tlie outing started off with “How charming!” “How Ideal!” and “How very romantic!” Then the throe girls got their liends together and took a solemn vow It was that they would remain iiiitll tlie very Inst day of August and that In the Interval they would not encourage any young man to address them any young man except Jacob, from whom they learned that young m. ii came that way at In tervnls to fish In the bay. The bungalow was a success from the start. On tlie first night It rained, and the water dripiied down through a dozen leaks; on the second night a con came and put her head through one of tlie windows to see what strange cattle had arrived and taken possession; on the third an owl alighted on the rooftree and uttered three whoops, and they were folio wed by three exclamations of "Murder!” “Po lice!” and "Help!” On tlie fourth day Jacob appeared with a pitcher of buttermilk and some startling news He had discovered n young lunu had gone Into camp n short quarter of a mile away. He had with him a tent, a boat, plenty of provisions and cooking utensils. It looked ns if lie Intended to stay right there all summer. Jacob had entered the young man’s camp and asked him to please move two miles farther up or down. The young inun had glared at him and kept on rending a volume of poetry. The news created Inteuse excitement at once. An indignation meeting was at once called, and it was resolved “that the young mau has got to go and that we wait upon him In a liody and tell him so.” Jacob bravely offered his help, but it was declined “The body” marched straight for the enemy’s camp, each face wearing a look of determination. The enemy ••ns silting down smoking a pipe, but ou their arrival he rose up and doffed his cap and stood at respectful attention. Miss Florence was spok- man. aud after a slight shiver she announced: "Sir. this is my father’s property, and you are a trespasser. I have to request that you kindly go away.” "But it happens to be my property,” replied the stranger, with a smile. "Your father’s farm ends at the creek there.” “But—but we are three girls, sir.” The young man bowed to ike three in turn. “Aud we have a bungalow and do not wish to be disturbed.” "I shall take great pleasure in not disturbing you.” “But can’t you understand, sir, that we are on our vacation and don’t want any men around?” "Sorry, young ladles—extremely sorry—but I am on my vacation and don’t want any females around. I will agree to keep my distance If you will keep yours. I have camped here for the past three years ou account of this spring." The delegation walked back to the bungalow without a word. Then the meeting was called lo order again, and Miss Florence asked what further steps were deemed necessary to rid themselves of the presence of the Impudent intruder. “Why, if it’s his land he has a right there, hasn’t lie?” Ingenuously queried Molly. ."And I didn’t expect to see such a good looking young man,” sighed Edith. "Are you girls going to turn traitor?" demanded the chairman in Indignant

♦ones. "He may be good looking, and he may Is? on his own land, but he’s no gentleman. A gentleman would have conseuted to move Ids camp even ten . miles if kindly requested by three girls | who were camping by themselves. If j he thiuks we are going away instead i he’ll find himself very much mistaken, j We must snub him on every possible occasion." When Farmer Jones was appealed to he sai.l he gue -ed the young man was within his rig.it . When young Jacob was toid tlie iesnit of the cull at his ! camp he offered to go over and chuck | the intruder i:i;o ihe bay and hold him there, but v. i • counsel prevailed, and the bungalow < uce more settled down j to peace and romance. Not for long, however. After breakfast two mornings later’ Florence went down to the shore for a row to find tlie boat missing. The tide had floated it off during the night. As she stood there wondering about tides and skiffs and Intruders the young man of tlie camp came rowing up In his own lioat and towing the missing craft. He leaped ashore, raised his cap and drew the skiff upon the sands. Then he entered his own craft without a word and rowed away. At dinner that evening Mrs. Jones proudly placed a dish of fried squirrels on the table. The girls welcomed It with little screams of delight. Miss Florence had half finished her dinner when she rememliered having seen the Intruder with u gun on his shoulder In the edge of the woods that afternoon. She suddenly lost her appetite and whispered to the girl on cither hand: "You may bow your neck to tlie tyrant’s yoke if you will, but as for me— never 1" "But such a deep, rich voice as he has!” “And such eyes and teeth!" At the breakfast next morning there was excellent fish ou the table—fish caught that morning, as Mrs. Jones proudly announced. The girls “pitched In," but after five minutes Miss Florence refused further fish. It came to her like a flash that the impudent intruder must have furnished the supply. She looked at her chums in cold illsdain, but Mi s Molly clasped her hands and rolled her eyes. "Ob. I knew he must lie a gentleman the first moment I set eyes on him.” "And how terrible it would have been had vve driven him away from here."

added Edith. They were traitors to the cause, but their conduct only made Florence the firmer In her determination. Fate knows when to mind her own business and when to Interfere with that of otli ers. In tiiis ease she held off for a couple of weeks. Miss Florence went out crabbing by herself. She planned to lie by herself so as to snub the Intruder If lie came within ten rods of her. It Is useless to speculate on how a girl and a lioat get upset on bay. lake or river. They do, and that's all there Is about It. Florence v as after the big gest crab of the century when she suddenly found her If sinking down to n watery grave. She didn’t know when the intruder came rushing down in his skiff and leaped overboard to her res cue. She didn't know whuu she was carried ashore and up to the Joneses' house When she tli! recover she heard sobs and sighs all around her. and as she tr'isl to sit up she heard Molly exclaim: “Oh. goody, goody! She will live! He has saved her life!” "And If she doesn't marry him she's an ungrateful wretch!” added Edith. “Why. we’ve known for two whole days that he was a son of Senator Blake and one of the nicest young men in the world!”

Job Still Open. The proprietor of a London restaurant advertised for a cook. The first to apply for the berth appeared to be in every way suitable. But before engaging him the restaurant keeper inquired If he could give him a tip for the 2:30 race. The cook's eyes brightened. He whispered a "dead cert.” and mentioned that he had 5 shillings on the horse himself. That was enough. The proprietor gave him n lecture on the evils of betting and showed him the door. As he went out lie saw another man about to enter. "Are you going to apply for the Job: he asked "Well, if you are asked if you know anything about racing, say you can’t tell a Derb} winner from a coster’s donkey.” 1 he mau took the advice, was engaged and commenced his duties. Presently the proprietor rushed to the speaking tube and yelled to the new cook: “Calf’s head oue.” Instantly the reply came: ‘Did be, by George? What was second and third?"

The Chinese Waiter. The chief glory of au average Chinese Inn is the waiter. This indlspen sable functionary is the guardian of all your Interests for the time being, aud when you are not looking he dives Into secrets and matters of your own that seem to amuse and enlighten him to your inconvenience aud annoyance. Like his confreres in other and more enlightened countries, lie hardly ever separates himself from the Inevitable napkin, but his badge of waitership is a very practical article with him. With It In summer lie mops Ids damp brow or Imre shoulders, while In winter wrapped about his head, it protects him from rain and wind. The Chinese waiter’s napkin Is put to all kinds of uses besides those just mentioned It Is used as a dishcloth, a mop with which to wipe the floor, n cloth for cleaning and wiping down tables and a duster. But Chinese landlords are very reasonable in their charges, which la a measure compensate for the unpleasantness of living In their Inns.
