HIS ACCOMPLICE.
The Obliging Old Lady Who H«lp*d
the Struggling Boy.
When a kind old lady In walking
along n north side residence street be
held n small boy struggling vainly to
roach something between the gratings
of a tall iron fence surrounding a pa
latial residence she paused to switch
ids operations. The object of bis quest
she discovered to be a handsome me.
chanlcnl toy, an automobile thnt would
run when wound up. The boy had «.
stick with which he was trying to puli
the machine toward him, but as ho
could scnrccly reach It tho strugglo ;
was well nigh hopeless.
"Let me try it." said the old lady. |
“My arm Is longer than yours.”
“All right," replied tho youngster, re
linquishing tho stick.
Getting down on her knoes, the old
lady, by dint of much stretching and
careful manipulation, gradually work
ed tho machine toward the fence ami
at last hud the satlafactlon of seeing
the little l*>y grasp It with eager fin
gers.
"Now," she Paid, "you must be more
•ireful and not let It get away from
you nealn."
"Gee,” said the boy, ”lt never got
away from me, an* It ain’t finin' to
neither."
"Wh-wh-why," faltered the old lady,
with the dawning of n horrible sus
picion. "Isn’t It yours?"
"You bet It's mine now," said the
kid. and awny he scampered, leaving
the good old lady alone with her con
science.—Atlanta Constitution.

DODGED THE DUELS.
Voltaire's Disastrous Attempts to Mak^
De Rohan Fight. J
Lfterary uien In dueling times and
countries have always boon rather
prone to get Into trouble from which
only a passage at arms could extjtfcnte
them. Voltaire had at various tutus a
nuirfbor of duels on his hands, but
counted among them two which did
not reach the expected climax.
One of these was his affair with the
Chevalier de Rohan Ohnbot. who goad
ed hi in to the point of fighting ami
then, instead of giving him the satis
faction demanded, had him lured Intc
a conch and soundly whippet} wltl
switches by some hirelings concealed
there.
Voltaire, after trying in vain to in
duce one of his noble friends to bach
him In his further pursuit of his en
emy. appealed to the municipal author
Ittes In these phrases: "I humbly rep
/esent that I havo been brutally as
saulted by the enurngeous Chevalier
de Rohan, aided by six cutthroats,
behind whom ho was bravely posted.
V.ver since that time I have sought to
restore not my honor, but his, a task
too difficult."
As this public affront failed to pro.
duec any effect, Voltaire hunted out
the chevalier one evening at the thea- I
ter and flung Insults In Ids face there. |
Itobnn at Inst consented to meet him, |
but contrived to let the nows reach
other members of the Rohan family. |
