A young man of ieculiar propensities rushed up to the ticket agent in the rail road station one day last week and said in a rat her excited voice: "Is that thetraia lor Springfield?" "Yes, sir," responjs-1 the ageut. "Does it always stand on that second track?" "Yes, sir; the Springfield train always stands on the same track." "Well, what time does it goes?" "You have just seven minutes." "Does it always go exactly on the scratch?" "Yes, usually, unless something is wrong." "How much is a ticket to AVorcestcr?" "One dollar, and you haven't long to fool, either," said the agent, reaching for the piece of cardboard from the slot, ex pecting a sale. "Then a person ought to be in here some time) before time for her to pull out?" "Yes. It, is better to have a few minutes to go on." "About how much time do you think is a safe allowance?" "That depends entirely on the person." "And how long does it take to run over to Springfield?" "Some trains run it in 2; . hours, others three hours; but here is your ticket." "Oh, well, 1 don't want it now. Some of the folks are goin over to Worcester about Thauksgivin, and beiu's I was in today I thought I'd catch on to the workings of things so the lolks wouldn't get excited when they come down to go day before Thauksgivin. That's all. Much obliged for the informal ion." Boston Herald. "Keeps Nothing to Himself.' -Life. An Inducement. "That is a picture of the old Puritans go ing to church, Hobby," said Mr. Xorris im pressively. "Here you see them tramping through the snow in single file, every man with his gun thrown over his shoulder, ready for in stant use in ca.-e of an attack." "What did they have to carry guns for?" asked llobhy, with interest. "To keep off the Indians," replied Mr. Xorris. "That is the kind of men that built up this country. Not the bitterest cold, nor the heaviest snow, nor the fact that they went in extreme peril of their lives could prevent them from performing their re ligious duties. Just think of our sturdy, pious forefathers when you don't feel like going to church and remember the hard ships they endured to enjoy the privilege of worshiping on Sunday, a privilege which I am afraid you are inclined to hold too lightly." "Pooh!" observed Hobby. "I'd go to church every day in the week if I could get a shot at an Indian on the way." Harper's Drawer. A Xew Thing. They had come in from a long walk through several buildings, an old man and his patient wife. And they were compar ing notes about the sights they had seen. "Emily," he said, "there's one thing we've passed a good many times today that I'd like to see. I kept thinking maybe you'd see it and say something about it lirst, because you often say that I am liable to get fooled." "What was it, pa?" asked the kind look ing old mother. "The Exit," said the old gentleman, clearing his throat. "I've seen it on door ways and gates, and I reckon it must be something new." Then, as she handed pa half a sandwich and a slice of bread smeared with black berry jam, she replied with a sincerity that was refreshing: "We'll look it up tomorrow, and if it isn't one of those awful dances they talk about on the Midway and it doesn't cost too much we'll take it in. I'll make a memorandum of it, pa." Chicago Tribune. CongresBman Allen's Latest. Congressman John Allen called on the president the other day. While there Allen asked the president how much the new baby weighed. "Nineteen pounds and a quarter," the president, a bit absentmind ed, replied. But he immediately corrected himself and said, "Nine and a quarter." Allen laughed and said it reminded him of a story. "A fellow down our way came into the club one night and said to a friend: 'I am the proud father of a new baby. What'U you have?' 'A cigar,' the friend replied. 'How much does it weigh?' 'Four pounds,' said the father. 'Oh, thunder!' the friend exclaimed; 'give me a cigarette.' " Chicago Post. Musical.

Midget swears, too; swears like a pirate. The family understand him, but they report that his language is too terrible to be repeated. When things dou't go to suit him, he retires under a bed or sofa and lies there rolling off oaths ol fearful description for hours. A young man who was attentive to Midget's young mistress unintentionally offended him, but the dog got even. He actually broke off the match, lie knew the regu lar nights on which the youth appeared, and at au early hour would ensconce himself under the parlor sofa, from which coign of vantage he would growl forth such volleys of personal and pro fane remarks that the prospective lover became intimidated and ceased his at tentions. In recognition of these serv ices Midget's master gave him a beauti ful silver collar. Louisville Courier Journal. A leserter's Good Fortune. A deserter is not always a deserter, even though branded with a great big "D," according to the laws of Queen Victoria's realm. Some time ago a well known English resident of Wilmington, Del., applied to the British consul here for a pension, claiming to have served his country in an Australian regiment. He admitted having had his breast branded with a rad iron, with the letter "D," which marked him forever as a de serter, but claimed to have rejoined his regiment after his punishment and served out the term of enlistment. The British home office found that he was right, and the pension has come to him after a long wait. Philadelphia Rec ord. And It Would Kemain 11 is.
