to lx away, a former archdeacon of
Suffolk was. It is related, sh-wn round
by the cler:-. 0:i itrrl vinyr nt the church

growing In It.
"Ieur, Ueur!" said the arcbdeacon.
"I can't approve cf this. I really did
not think Mr. would bave planted
wheat in tbe cburcbyard."
"That's just what I told parson,"
said tbe clerk. "I soya," says I, "ye
didn't ought to have wheated it; yo
ought to bave tatered it!"
When Wives Were Sold.
A century or so ago wife selling was
not an uncommon event in England,
as the following item, which appeared
In the London News of Nov. 21, 1801,
would show:
"On Friday a coal porter exhibited
his wife In Sniithfleld, with a baiter
round her neck, for sale. He demand
ed a guinea for her, but she hung on
band for some time, until a man of
good appearance made the purchase,
and packing her, halter and all, into a
hackney coach drove for Blackfrlars
bridge, amid tbe huzzas of the mob."
The Left Over Baby.
A woman went into a big department
store and checked her baby while she
shopped. When she went tc get her
baby, she found she had lost her check.
The manager said she would have to
wait and when all the other babies
were taken out she could have tbe one
that was left, but the baby left over
was a colored baby. This was all
right, however, as the woman was col
ored. Atchison Globe.

INSURED FOR A MILLION.
Heir, ot Grain Kins Peavey Will
Receive Howe Sain.
One million dollars will shortly be
paid by the Mutual Life Insurance
company of New York to the heirs of
Frank II. Peavey of Minneapolis, a
millionaire grain man, who died re
cently in Chicago of pneumonia, says
tbe New York Herald. Mr. Peavey
was fifty-two years old and was cred
ited with being the largest owner of
grain elevators in the world. He bad
been ill only ten days.
On April 28, 1900, Mr. Teavey was
insured in the Mutual Life Insurance
company for $1,000,000, taking out a
twenty year payment policy. Tbe an
nual premium was $48,390, and as Mr.
Peavey's death occurred just one year,
eight months and two days after the
J policy was issued only two payments,
amounting to $90,780, had been made.
ijTbrough Mr. Peavey's death his estate
therefore increased by $903,220.
J s Shortly before Mr. Peavey took out
the million dollar policy he was exaui
tiied by a special medical board under
tie direction of Dr. Grenville M. White,
' the chief medical director of the com
pany. After a painstaking examina
tion the board reported the applicant
in perfect health.
I A few weeks ago Mr. Peavey was in
New York and visited tbe home office
of the company in Nassau street. One
of tjie officers said that be then ap-
pea red to be in the most robust health,
being "a- splendid specimen of physical
manhood, in response to a query con
ceruing his health Mr. Peavey replied.
"I am enjoying my usual good health
and fully anticipate living until the ex
piration of my miilfon dollar policy In
1920."
Insurance companies rarely assume
such large risks upo an individual
i life. Geprge W. VandeiihUt is known,
! however, to have a policy for $1,000,-
000 iu tbe Mutual. In taking such risks
the company always reinsures a part
of the amount In other ca upanies, thus
diminishing its own r sk. Foreign
companies frequently ass une a part of
this risk, and by the dent i of Mr. Pea
vey several such compi hies will be
called upon, to settle their part of the
million dolKi.- policy. I
In Chlct?l it was learned that Mr.
Peavey, in nllditlon to the million dollar
policy, carried $500,000 on his life iu
various companies, the, policies rang
ing from $6,000 to $20,000. His estate,
it is said, is valued at $10,000,000.
BOY AIDS ANTHROPOLOGISTS
Indian Lad Fonnd Link Between Xa
vajoe. anf Alaskan Tlnncha.
The curiosity'of an educated Navajo
Indian boy couicrning on old tradition
of his tribe hi-led to the discovery
that "the Navajies of Arizona and the
Tinneh Indians of Alaska are branches
of the same original tribe, says a Hele
na (Mou.) dispatch to tbe New York
Journal. This fact is made known by
the Rev. Father George de la Motte,
superior general of the Jesuit missions
in Alaska.
"This discovery was made," said Fa
ther de la Motte, "through the curiosi
ty of a young Navajo Indian who had
beeu told a tradition of the tribe band
ed down from father to son for many
generations that tbe Navajoes tit one
time inhabited a cold country.
"This boy read something In a maga
zine concerning the Tlnueh Indians.
The word 'Tiniieh' iu the Navajo lan
guage means 'man.' He became so In
terested that he wrote to a missionary
in Alaska, mentioning a number of
Navajo words and their meanings. It
was found that the same words arid
eame meanings were found in the Tin
neb language. .
"Other tribol peculiarities were com
pared, with the result that it lias been
established beyoud reasonable doubt
that the Navajoes and Tinnehs are off
shoots of the same original stock."
This discovery is of immense value
and interest to anthropologists and
strongly confirms a long believed theo
ry that the American Indians migrated
from tiie north to their hunting
grounds on tills continent, displacing
the original Inhabitants of America,
and that, furthermore, they originally
came from Asia.

A f liliininnn's Protest.
The Peking Gazette, speaking of Chi
nese in fcrelgn lands, says:
"We dress and speak differently from
foreigners, just as foreigners do who
come to China. But nobody in the
streets cf.lls us 'Chinese devils.' The
children in the streets wish to see how
long our cues are, but the police,
seeing them annoy us, scatter them.
When we go into a shop to buy any
thing, we are treated with even more
consideration than their own people.
We enter their homes, it is the same.
They seek to please us In every way,
show us curios or play the organ or
piano for us. The writer has been to
Ffffaee, England, America, Japan,
Spain and South America and stayed
years, and everywhere he was treated
with the same courtesy."
It is to be feared that some Chinese
laundry men in this country would not
wholly indorse this view.
I.iuht Without Slsht.
Wa can "perceive" light without the
smallest aid from the retina. If the
optic nerve Is sufficiently excited to
reach the sensorium and create a dis
turbance at that center of the brain
where the optic nerve terminates, we
shall then see light and sparks. If,
moreover, the optic nerve is cut or mu
tilated in any way, we should see a
brilliant flash of light, though without
any sensation of pain. And so it is
with the other nerves. The auditory
nerve has only to be excited, not nec
essarily by sound, so as to reach its
center, the brain, and we shall hear a
sound. How many ghosts might not
be destroyed in this way? Chambers'
Journal.
The Danish Mascot.
The chimney sweeper Is the Danisji
mascot. You see him in gold or silver,
suspended on a lady's watch chain, in
stead of the "lucky pig" or horseshoe,
which is the English symbol of good
luck. He also appears on note paper
and postcards, implying that your cor
respondent wishes you a rise in life.
It is the old fashioned sweep that is
thus depicted he who had actually to
climb the chimney, his implements be
ing a four foot ladder, a short broom
and a rope.
American English.
We do not speak the English lan
guage in the way in which it Is spoken
by the people of England. We have
greatly changed, enlarged and perhaps
improved it in our usual progressive
way. The wonder lies in the notion of
Englishmen that their way of speaking
the language is the only way and that
our way is wrong. New York World.
