The masons who build the houses build In top-boots, red shirts niid pink trousers; the houses are painted red or green or blue; the churches are like the temples of sav age idols, tortured into every unnatur al shape and colored every glaring color " His Shaving Mug In a Tree. Tlio Webb City correspondent sends this "belated but interesting1 item" regarding a storm which took place near Neck City a few days ago: "J. N. Scott was not at home on tins night of the storm last week, hav ing gone to a neighbor's, some little distance away, and being prevailed upon to stay all night on account of the threatening weather. When he arrived at what should have been Ms home next morning he found that his new two-room house had disap peared, not a trace of It was visible anywhere fn the vicinity. His shaving mug and brush, which were in the house at the time of the storm, have been four;."'. In a tree two miles away. This leads Mr. Scott to believe that if he had been in tho house at the time he would have had a long and perilous trip." Kansas City Juitrnai. Finger Print Identification of Slaves. The identification of criminals by means of finger prints introduced in recent years in European police and penal establishments is paralleled by a similar custom which hns been used in Coren for centuries to identify fe male slaves. In a paper recently rend before tho .Anthropological society of London, by a missionary from Corea, it was stated that in the deeds of sale of slaves the hand of the latter was placed on the sheet of paper on which bo deed was inscribed, and an outline of tho fingers and thumb was traced, while, in addi tion, an impression Wi'S made of each fii.ger. Such impressions, which nat nrallj furnished a complete iilentifiia- tiou, date liave been found on deeds thr.t back 1.200 years. Harper's Wi ckly. Small Collections. The lale Mr. M. A.

Huston Globe. Angora Goats Good Foragers. Tho ability of angora goats to rough it is shown by the experience of N. D. l'owors of Troy, N.

This spring six of them were found in the mountain forests in good condition, having got a living by browsing ou bark and twigs. Violins Artificially Aged. It hns been discovered that the ag ing of a violin can be artificially se cured by exposing tho wood to X-rays. The beautiful tone which has hereto fore resulted from a natural aging of the wood for fifty or sixty years can thus be obtained in a single day. Boys Clothed Statue of Venus.

SAYS THE OWL. Mcst men kick more from habit than from necessity. Triplets are throe ih'nes lu life for 'vhich i:u man is prepared. The Ktage-struel; youth should think twice before attempting to act. Solomon knew but little when com pared with what some men think they know. Gossip has about as much use for truth as a blind man has for spec tacles. A woman (hinks she is ehnritahlo when she lets her husband have her own way. There are many peeks of trouble in store for tho man who marries a stren uous woman. After tolling young people to ni'irry inly for love tho minister proceeds lo marry for money. Even tho woman who lays down the law to her husband Is willing to let him lay down the carpets. Sometimes a woman who is a slave to fashion marries a man who Ik averse to the encourarement of slavery. Some men may have had monkey ancestors, but those who are alwavs butting in probably descended from goats. MISSOURI HOMESPUN PHILOSO PHY. The home of idlcner.s is the dovH'E recruiting oflice.

A man should be upright; not be kept upright. Consider tho wise, what, they shun ..nil what they cleave to. If it is not somjily, do it not; if it i;i not true, speak it not. The universe is change; our life is what our thoughts make !t. Forward, as occasion offers. Never look around to see whether any shall nolo It. The longest lived and the shortest lived man, when they come to die, lose one and tho same thing. J.et every act and speeoh and pur I ose be flamed at if this moment thou nilghtest take thy leave of life. As for life, it. Is a battle and a (.ojotirning in a strange land, but, tho fame that comes after It Is oblivion. Always take tho short cut; and that Is the rational- one. Therefore say and do everything according to soundest reason. Do not as one that hath ten thou sand years to live; death is nigh at hf.nd; while thou Uveal, while thou l-.ust time, he Rood. RACE TRACK ECHOES. Where there's a racehorse there's a query. Nothing succeeds like winning bets in sequence. The searchlight of publicity seldom bines on a two-dollar bankroll. 1-oslng wagers aro usually re 1'oarred;; winning ones constitute tho performance proper. A word to the wise may be stifle cienl. but It remains for a tip to lie delivered with telling effect.
