THE WRONG MAN.
The
Trtlliln MlsUk of a
Disturbed
!loukollr.
It was wash day at the house of the Fer
gusons. The clothes had been In souk for
. tnoni than an hour. The lau miry lady In
the basement caino up stairs torcort thut
the soap, which had been ordered early
that morning, had not come yet.
"Lycurgus," said Mrs. Fergusou. "you
will have to go to the grocery and get It.
We can't wait any longer."
Mr. Ferguson went tntbe grocer's, whose
placo of business was seven blocks nway.
"How does It happen," lie demanded
fiercely, "that the soap my wife ordered
three hours ago hasn't comu yet r"
"She ordered a lot of atuff at thu same
time," said onu of the clerks, "and we fllle;)
the order as quick as we could. The Uij
with the delivery wagon laon the way there
now."
Mr. Ferguson went bock home. Mrs.
Ferguson reported that the grocer's boy
had come and had delivered everything she
bad ordered except the soap. It IiimI leen
overlooked somehow.
Mr. Ferguson, boiling over with wrath,,
was about to start on another trip for that
soap, when the laundry lady tmulu her ajn
penrauco again. -
"There's a man at the back door," she
said, "with an order book In his hand. I
think it's the grocer himself."
Then Mr. Ferguson went to the back
door.
"You've come yourself this time, have
your" ho shouted
"Yes, sir," said tho man.
"Got that soapr"
"No. sir, but"
"You haven't! Do you know, sir, that
wo have been waiting all this morning foi
a few bars of cheap, common, yellow soap,
slrf Do you know that I'vu bad to inula
atrip to your storo on purpose for that
soap myself and then did not get It 1 What
kind of way it that for a man to do busi
nesaf Wu could have waited an hourot
two longer for thu lettuce iintl the cocoa
nut and thu strawberries and the can of
tomatoes"
"Hut"
"And there wasn't tiny particular hurry
for thu broom and the scrubbing brush
and the peck of potatoes, lint wu wanted
that soap. Tbo girl's been waiting for It
for two or three hours"
"Hut I"
"And a whole washing is going to ruin
for want of It! I won't stand It! You
can't play a trick like that on niu a second
tlmo. Wo'vu only Iwoii in this housu two
weekS, and wo have got all our groceries'
from you. Wu hnvu ordered something
every time the boy has comu around. We
have spent more than twenty dollars at
your store, mid we're not going to spend
any more. You'vu got every cent out of
us you're going to get. We shall try somo
other grocer. You will find It doesn't pay
to"
"Will you let me say just u word?"
"It won't do any good, sir. My mind is
niadu up. What do you want to sayr"
"I'm the Iceman." Chicago Tribune.
He Was I'hll(.c.,lilc.
"I am very sorry," remarked tho wife,
when the waitress brought In n huge cube
of corned beef and placed it on the table,
"that wu have no mustard in thu house."
"It Is really terrible," replied tho hus
band; "lint come to think of it, wu haven't
any champagne In the cellar, have wer"
"No," said the wife.
"And I don't suppose we have such a
thing as a bottle of pickled walnuts be
tween tho roof and thu coal bin, have wef"
"No, wu have not."
"And I supposuif I were to start at thu
present moment on a still hunt I couldn't
Hud such a thing as a venison stew from
onu end of the house to the other, would It"
"You would not."
"And now tUnt I think of it, there is no
money In thu house. Is therer"
"Not a cent."
"Nor a bond nor a share of stock upon
wilch a dollar could bu raised at short no
ticer" "Not one," said thu wifu impatiently.
"Then let's try to be happy. If wu can
exist without champagne, pickled wal
nuts, stewed venison, money, bonds and
stocks, don't you think wu ought to le
able to pull along without mustard?"
"I think wu ought," said thu wifu cheer
fully. "Then let's try to. I could go all my
life without mustard, couldn't your"
"Yes."
"Then don't npologlzu any further for
its absence. Just try to Imaglnu that
thero Is no such thing as mustard in the
world, and think how much worso it would
be if wu had lots of mustard and no corned
beef."
And then they fell to in philosophic si
lence. Detroit Free Press.
Not Guilty, but
'Rasttts had no Imsliiess in New York nt

shiftless and raKed sort, a type of the

He stood ill) in a bewildered fashion
when his case was called, only remember
Ing that he had been told to plead not
guilty.
"JedKe," ho bef-atl obsequiously. "Pzo

"Hold on," said tho officer at his elbow,
"you'll have a chancu in time."

"Well," smiled the judge, "are you

"Pzo not guilty, Jedge. Lawyer ho say

'Rastus stopped and turned abruptly in
response to u tug at his coat tails. The old
negro lient over to listen to tho whispered
instructions of his lawyer, and then
straightened up and faced the court again.
"Not guilty, ser," he announced.
"Not guilty, eh?"

He Knew All About It.
One of the men whoaru always suro and
never inaku mistakes recently stopped at a
western hotel. On going to his room for
thu night he charged thu landlord to call
him In time for an early train. "Now
don't you forget. Thu &:f!0. That's thu
train I want."
"Hut the 3:!10" began tho landlord.
"Never you mlt.d anything about tho

tlmu to get It. That's what you're to do.

"All right." replied the landlord, a little
shortly.
At fi o'clock the next morning theru was
a tremendous thumping at the door of the
man who wanted to rUe for thu "Win." A
voice from within called "All right!" ami
the landlord retired to the office.
Tho traveler soon appeared dressed for
thu day's journey. As he paid his bill the
landlord huiulri'd brlelly:
"Getting an early start, iinltftyur"
"No. Always taku thu 5:ft0 when I gc
through here."
"One of the directors of thu roadr"
"No."
"Superintendent of division, mebbur"
"No. What arc you trying to get utr"
"Nothing. Only the MM) vvni taken olT
the time table yesterday, and the first reg
ular train doesn't pull out till 0:10. Didn't
know but you had somu ofllclal connec
tion wltli the road, and was going to pull
out on a special MIO all by yourself. Yoi.
I wouldn't let mu tell you last night, but
p'r'aps 'tain't too late now."
Thu man who "knew all about It"
walked out of the ofllco without a word,
anil the landlord smiled as he said to him
self, "In the language of .losh Hillings,
'It is better not tew kno so mutch then
tew kno so mutiny things tliet hain't so.' "

Little Sam had comu from the country
to visit his aunt In the city. On thu day
after Ills arrival an organ grinder came to
thu door. Sam ran In search of his aunt,
tliat she, ts), might hear thu music. She
followed him back to thu door and handed
him a nickel.
"Put that in thu plato on top of the or
gnu," shu said, "and the man will play an
other tune."
Sam did so and again enjoyed thu music.
Thu next Sunday his aunt took him to
church. During thu olTcrtory the organist
played n most beautiful selection. Sam
had never heard an organ In church before,
mid being a musical little fellow ho (inh
ered all over with enjoyment.
Ills aunt gave- him a nickel, and whis
pered that when thu gentleman who was
taking thu collection camu up lie must put
it in the plate. Sam dropped thu live cent
piece in with a great clatter, and looking
up into the gentleman's face with a bright
smile said, in the politest voice imaginable,
and quite audibly:
"Plcuse, sir, that is for another tune."
Smiles seemed to be contagious in that
