Razorback bogs are known to be exceedingly Tlcious, aDd if you bad been surrounded by a drove of them you would have never seen morning. They would have eaten you up. even to the pawn ticket for your m atch." The tall tragedian scratched his chin Jn deep meditation. "No, me lord, you are wrong," he said finally. "There are exceptions In all cases. You see, these happened to be safety razorback hogs." Chicago News. Mixed Barries.

Worried. "Why," asked the good man's wife, "are you so thoughtful? You look as If something disagreeable had happened." "Perhaps," he replied, "I am foolish to feel as I do about It. My congregation has raised a purse for the purpose of sending me to Europe." "And are you sorry it isn't large enough to enable you to take me with you? Don't let that cause you to feel depressed. It will be very lonely here without you, but I know you need the rest, and I shall be cheered by the Ihought that you will return refreshed In mind and body." "It is very good of you to look at it in that way, my dear. I appreciate your feeling. But the gentleman who made the presentation speech said he was sorry the. amount that had been raised was not larger so that I might be able to remain away longer, and somehow It seemed to be that the applause was more hearty at that point than anywhere else in the' course of his remarks."

Would Have Done the Same. Rev. George B. Macdonald, a Wesleyan clergyman, was Kipling's maternal grandfather. It is related of this bright Macdonald that in the days when he was courting the lady whom he afterward married the father-in-law to be an aged Methodist, with extremely strict notions in regard to the proprieties was injudicious enough on one occasion to enter the parlor without giving any warning of his approach. The consequence was that he found the sweethearts occupying a single chair. Deeply shocked by this spectacle the old man solemnly said: "Mr. Macdonald, when I was courting Mrs. Brown she sat on one side of the room and I on the other." Macdonald's reply was: "That's what I should have done if I had been courting Mrs. Brown."

The Retort Worthy. Major Throckmorton, an Innkeeper of

Louisville la ante Dellum days, was one of the most interesting characters that ever helped to make life worth living oT history worth reading. Ue ejected Charles Dickens, the great English novelist, from his . hotel, and he made at least one retort worthy to be handed down from generation to generation. "Get this man's horse," said the major to hisTiostler (the man had Insulted one of the major's guests) "that little Arkansas pony."

The Arbitrators at Work. He was a man of peace, and he came upon two youths in a back street fighting. Accordingly he pushed through the crowd and persuaded the combatants to desist "Let me beg of you, my good fellows," earnestly besought the peacemaker, "to settle your dispute by arbitration. Each of you choose half a dozen friends t6 arbitrate." "Hurrah!" yelled the crowd. "Do as the gentleman sez, bboys." Having seen the twelve arbitrators selected to the satisfaction of both sides, the man of peace went on his way rejoicing In the thought of having once again prevailed upon brute force to yield to peaceful argument. Half an hour later he returned that way and was horriSed to find the whole street fighting, while in the distance police whistles could be heard blowing and police seen rushing to the spot from all quarters. "Good gracious! What Is the matter now?" a.sked the peacemaker.

"Shure. :o:r." was the reply, "the
