""Doing along the treat th et&sc tart
noon," says ths Vermilion (S. 13.) Repub
lican, "wa saw a woman out In a yard
whipping a rarpet on the line with a mop.
The woman's drrss gaped badly at the
waist and her dishevelled hair was partly
crowned by a red handkerchief knotted at
the corners. Her eye flashed and the dirt
flew. Ones the strings of the mop lovingly
caught-her about the neek. Before we were
out of earshot her timid hubby came to the
door and asked her how many loaves he
should cut the dough Into. She gave him
the magic number, told him to grease the
knife, see what the baby was into and fix
up a good tire. House cleaning time

- Patrick J. McNamara, ones a pugilist of

terror to the police at times. One of these
times srrlved lust week when h created a
panic In his neighborhood, tossed out sev
erul policemen as though they were feather
weights, and was not subdued until a squad
of policemen had made a combined attack
on him. McN-uuara was let off easily on
his promliM to go to an asylum. He re
turned next day, went to tha saloon and
for th cash register. His wife ordered
him to desist. McNamara refused. Fifteen
nun-ales later be pra at lbs pollcs sta

blood streaming from his ear. He asked
for a warrant for his wife, whom he ac
cused of knocking him out. She appeared,
acknowledged the accusation and paid her

and a pound of (lour for 1 cents. What does
that make?"
There v. as iiltnce for a moment. Then a

class raised her hund.
"I know, teacher," she said. "Pound

"Johnny," said the teacher to a smell
pupil whose face and hands were badly
soiled, "you didn't wash this morning, I!J
you?"
"No, ma'am,' replied the truthful
Johnny,
"Why not?" asked tha teacher,
