CHOCK FULL OF FUN?
Siovr *n Athletic Parson Amused and i
Surprised a Cowboy.
'A capital story is told of n uni
versity man who was the stroke par
Of his crew and an invincible athlete
9ii the football field.
He entered the ministry und spent
_ears in missionary labor in the far
wrest. Walking one day through a
frontier town, a cowboy, bent on
having a lark, stepped up to him
2tnd said :
"Pafson, you don't have esough
tun. Tak? a drink."
\ The minisUrr declined.
\ I ("Well, parson/'* he said, <syou
annst have some fui). Here's a card
feaioon. Take a hand in a game/"
The minister declined.
1 i "Parson," said the cowboy,
, you'll dio if you don't have ?omo
*un."
And he knocked the parson'* hat
iftt his head and hit him on the ear.
The old athlete's spirit rose. The
science which hod been learned in
earlier days and forgotten for a
?quarter of a century was aroused,
*nd a blow on the jaw of that cow
boy sent him sprawling in the street.
The parson walked over him as
5f he had been a door rug, picked
liim up and dusted the side of the.
?ouse with him and then threw him
in the road.
As the ambulance was carrying
th? cowboy off he raised his head
feebly and said:
"Parson, what did you fool me
?or? You are chock full of fun."?

THE CANDY MAN IN MEXICO.
lo Has an Ancient History Dating
Back to the Aztecs.
The streut candy peddler is one
?f the things that attract the atten
tion of the tourist ou his first or
Tivol in Mexico, says Modern Mexi
co. As the climate is warm enough
to be out of doora all ?ie year
around, the candy vender is to be
found at his post from one year's
end to the other, including Sun
days> Saturdays and feast days. The
candy man boa a very cucient his
tory. The Aztecs were very fond of
sweets, of which they understood the
art of making very many kinds and
varieties. The soldiers of Cortes
tell us that on their way to this city
from A'cra Cruz on that memorable
march against the city of the Aztecs
they were met along the way by
venders who sold sweats of many
kinds, which became very agreeablo
to the taste when onco they had got
accustomed to them. Tb$ candy
vender takes up his place at tho cor
ner of a street, where he remains all
day from early morning till late at""]
night. As a general thing, too, you
may find him in the same place all
the year round. Once a vender has
possession of a certain place the pth
er venders recognize his right and
do not molest him with competition.
Sometimes a vender will sell only
one kind of candy. In this case he
in all probability makes it himself.
,However, many venders have lately
been* seized with the,- progressive
spirit of the times and display quite
s little stock in trade of kinds of
sweets, most of which are not known
outside of Mexico.
Tho candy vender generally has a
small foi ding table about 1% by
2% feet in dimensions. On this he
piles all his wares. Therefore you
have no trouble in finding exactly
what you want, for there it is all
spread.out before you*.. If you do
not find itHhere you need not make
further inquiries. Tho vender will
?Gt? iiiivu it.
There are over a thousand street j
candy venders in the City of* Mexico..
Some of th?se have push carts, an
inspiration of the new ago of mod-1
ern Mexico. These are generally ]
more ambitious than their fellows
and generally go about from fair to .
fair. They are to be found about
the better markets and the plazas
on feast days, and they generally
hang around outside the schools,
where they sell to the children on
school days. Some of these venders,
who Ere generally young fellows,
have made considerable money.
Unnecessary Pr?caution.
The woman member of the vil

Pettiman's, which was ta ask him to
whitewash . his pigsties inBide and

"They will look so much better/' ;
she urged artfully, "and, besides, it
is hygienic, healthy, you knjpw/'
. Mr. Pettiman, sini!umg>?takerl a
horny forefinger, then crooked it.
"You come 'long o' me," he said,
and led the way to the sties.
"There 1'-* he went on, vfith a gra

porkers sunk in the mud. ' "There

Colonel and Kernel*
; Colonel Carr's gardener was going
through tho woods belonging to his
master when he saw a man gather
ing nuts. As the colonel had given
strict orders that this was not to bo
p?fmitted, the gardener accosted tho
man.
"I've orders to keep all these nuts
for the colonel this year.'3
"That's all right," said the man. ]
"I'm a-getting 'era for tho kernel"
A week later the gardener came
"across, the same man again.
? "Xook here," He said angrily.
"You're not getting theso nuts for

HOW COFFEE GROWS.
fcititudc Makes a Big Difference In Size
and Color of tho Beans.
Up to 1G9? tho sole source of tho
toffco supply was Arabia, but iu
that year it was introduced into
Java by the governor g?n?ral of tho
island, and the clinmte was found
to be so well adapted to it that culti
vation was begun on a largo scale.
One of the first plants grown in
Java was sent to the botanical gar
dens at Amsterdam, and seed from '
it Avas sent to Surinam, resulting in
its introduction into that country
in 1718. Ten years later it found
its way to the West Indies, and from
that time its cultivation has been
general throughout the inhabited
portions of the tropics. The regions
best adapted to its culture aro well
watered mountain slopes, varying
from 1,000 to 1,000 feet in altitude
and between tho parallels of 15 de- j
grees north and 15 degrees south
latitude.
According to the altitude at which
it is grown, the colfee bean varies
in size and color, that from tho
highlands being email and light
green and nearer the coast of a yel
low -tinge and much larger. Tito
wild trees of Liberia, which flourish
in lowlands, produce the largest
beans known, which are, however,
inferior in quality,. as is the cose
with the majority of the African
product. Eastern coffee generally
may be distinguished by its yellow
color and large beans as compared
with the smaller green berries of
Central and South American
growth.
In its wild state the coffee tree is
slender, reaching a height of twelve
to twenty feet, but under cultivation
it is pruned to grow not more than 1
six or eight feet high. The leaves
resemble those of the laurel, though
not so dry and thick, and are ever
green, while the flowers are some
what like tho jasmine. Tho trees
are completely cohered ?T?tu blos
soms, which perfume the whole
countryside. The fruit resembles
the cherry very much, especially
when ripe, when it is a dark purple.
Curing a Smoker.
A wise mother, caught her little
boy smoking a cigarette the other I
day. Instead of inverting him over ;
her knee and nearly spanking tho'
life out of him she said:
"Johnny, dear, I 6ee you aie get- ;
ting quite a big little man. Como
away 'in, and I will give you one of j
papa's great big cigars to smoke." j
So Bhe marched Johnny away into
papa's study 'and sat him down to
sm?kejme of papa's cigars. |
She sat down opposite and watch
ed, while his lips grew white and his
eyes yellow and his bauds dropped
helplessly, and as?a little later she .
ministered to .him she had the satis
faction of receiving, his 'vehement
promise that he would never, naver
smoke again until he was older.-^

On* Experience Enough.
When four-year-old Gertrude had
cried for four succe^Vivnighta with
toothache and none of the family
had bean able to sleep well papa
took her to the dentist and had the
offending tooth drawn. Gertrude
willingly submitted to tho operation,
not knowing the pain connected
with, it, but was very indignant at
her father after it was all over.
Some time afterward she had a
canker core on her upper gum, and
while at the breakfast table she bit
upon a crust of feread and could not
avoid an exclamation of pain.
"What's the matter now?" asked
papa. I
"Well," was the answer, "I have
a sore gum, but you aren't going to
have it pulled out"

Ago and Gray Hair,
As age advances tho- hair grows
gray by a natural process, but this
may be much: hastened by severe
anxiety or other causes, and in manyv
instances nremature blanching of
the hair is hereditary. As the change
is taking place hairs may often be
found which are white at their
bases, but retain their color at their
ends. Brown-Sequard kept a con
stant watch on some of the hairs of
hia own beard while it was turning ;
gray and found that at times an en
tire hair'would change in the course
ota night.' This loss of color seems
to bo duo partly to a loss of power
to produce pigment and partly to
th% presence of air in tho hair
shafts. : :" . ' - ;, _ ; )g:

A COURAGEOUS RAT.
Ho Won His Freedom by His. Plucky
Fight For Light.
This i? tho story of a rat that '
showed a courage and strength of
mind in tho presence of, great dan
ger. Tile man who telis the talo
had gone down to the river one even
ing to fish and heard the rat full
into a well near by, in which the
surface of the water wus nbout live
feet down. "Tho rat could not
climb up the sides und was reduced
to eitting on a bent bit of pipe. He
was fairly trapped. As the colony
of rats of winch ho wus a member
had committed many recent atroci
ties, among other things murdering
young ducks and chiekens at the
farm ta well as stealing eggs and
slaughtering infant rabbits, it was
deemed that the rat ought to be kill
ed. I swept him oil the pipe in the
net, but he ran up the handle as
quick us lightning, and as I had no
fancy for completing the ladder
with m}' hand and arm I shook him
back into the well. I then rather
reluctantly decided to drown him,
though it was a cold blooded pro
ceeding, and I did not much like it.
"So tho lamp was 'shone' on to
the water, from which the* rat had
now emerged. He was again sit
ting on his pipe. You can see far
deeper down into the water with a
light at night than you can in tho
sunlight in the daytime, and when I
caught the rat in the net and push
ed the latter down below water,
with tho open part of tho net
against the nut side of the well, I
saw the rat swim around in the net
looking for a hole. All this took
some time, and it could get no
breath. But this did not disturb
it. It then appeared with its feet
upward, and I thought it was dead.
But a person with mo said, 'No, ho
is biting through the net,* This was
tho case^ Tho rat was holding on
with all four feet nod biting through
the net, made of dressed fishing
line, on the top side.
"I shook the net and pushed it
down lower. Again the rat began
its efforts an?V" bit through several
strands till it got its head and
shoulders out. All this time it was
under water. Such courage and
coolness must have caused admira
tion even in a rat catcher, and I
promptly pulled up the net and de
termined to give the rat his life. It
was not quite exhausted even then,
bat sat on the grass in the light of
the lamp, half m the net and half
out, with its head up and its eyes
open. I shook it free from the
mesheB, when it .eat up and had a
good look at us and then sneaked
off into some cover by the bank."
Took It With His Meal*.
A doctor tells of a very stout pa
tient who came to him about reduc
ing his weight, says tho editor of
Modern Medical Science.' The doc
tor drew up a careful dietary con
sisting of dry toast, boiled and
various'other things calculated to
keep a man from accumulating fat.
At the end of a month the pa
tient returned stouter than ever.
The physician was astonished and
asked the man what lie had been
eating.
' "Just what you prescribed," w?
?|?eanswer.
-'Anything else?"
"Why, of course. I ate my regu
lar meals as usual."
Just For a Moment.
In the early days In Iowa, writes
a correspondent of the Youth's
Companion, a village school was
held in a room of a farmhouse. .The
former, Mr. Jennings, told the pu
pils that they must not molest his
Dees.
They were obedient children and
respected tho farmer's rights. More
over, since most of them went bare
foot, they were not anxious to stir
up trouble in the hives.
One day a little girl went to Mr.
Jennings and made this naive ex
planation: "Please, Mr. Jennings,
my brother Willie otepped on a bee,
but it was en accident, and ho got
right off." '
