Private Interview.
One may sometimes be made to see the
nselessness of a foolish habit by bein;
laade the victim of similar behavior on
the part of another. Here is an example
of being paid "in one s own coin:"
A landlord in a country village was
busily employed at his desk when a
farmer came to the door and asked to
see him.
The man was asked his errand, but he
persisted that be must see the hotel
keeper alone. The latter stopnel out
side, when the farmer mojioned him to
loiiow ana walked around to the rear
of the hotel.
When they were well around the cor
ner the farmer stated that he wished to
buy a cow and had heard that the land
lord had one to sell.
"Come on, said the other, ami led the
:y through a garden, a patch of pota
toes, and after ciKiibing a fence, through
a muddy barnyard and into the hotel
barn.
When they were inside the landlord
put his mouth near tlie other's ear and
whispered:
"Say, neighbor, I've sold my cow!"

Nickname at College.
With students the range of sobriquets
is wide and varied, a condition due tothe
close relations between tlie nicknamer
and the nicknamed. Some well defined
rules obtain, however, which show there
is some method in this phase of undir-
graduate madness. Surnames often
carry the same nicknames, although the
persons may not be related, and may be
separated by five or ten years in the time
of their residence at college. For in
stance, Jones, '79, is dubbed "Buck," I
and the chances are excellent that Jones,
89, will receive the same nickname.
v ny, no one Knows, Dut it is a curious
instance of persistent personality. Again, J
nicknames received previously at school
os at heme count for naught, for the j
collegian is no respecter of traditions
outside of the college world. So "Billy"
becomes "Sister," "Jack" is transformed I
into "Reddy," "Joe" is elevated into I

A Swedish engineer has invented a
novel method of blasting by electricity.
He employs a volta arc produced be
tween two carbon rods placed parallel.
When the arc is moved close to the spot
where blasting is to be effected an in
tense local heat is created, followed by
expansiou, which has the effect of split
ting the rock.
