The beauty of a novelist's plot is an
unexpected denouement, says 'awtl'tt
tournnl. In like manner the outsider,
at any rate, is specially dhevted when
a jest takes an unlooked-for turn, and
perhaps victimizes the original jester.
In the course of one of his journeys
Sir Richard Purlon entered a Persian
village disguised as a fakir. The make
up was perfect, and. moreover, t he part
was being played by a skillful and con
summate actor.
Sir Kichiml was familiar with eastern
ways, lie knew what he had to do
and how to do it. but the humor
seized him to figure as a holy man of
phenomenal powers and to trick the
simple Persian further. lie had ob
tained the grant of a house in the
village. and he secretly wrote up a text
from the koran on the outside of his
door; it was done in phosphorus, and
burton waited for darkness, when he
expected to enjoy his jest and reap new
advantage of notoriety, but the furor
led to a catastrophe and the joke made
burton homeless. Every one wanted a
relic of the house which could show
such a marvelous sign, and it was torn
down about the fakir's ears.
.V writer in a popular monthly men
tions the e;ise of a kinsman of his own,
who was a .schoolboy at Harrow. Out
in the fields one day he went to the
assistance of a portly farmer on horse
back, who could not easily open a gate
and did not care to put his horse to it.
This was an act vhieh indicated a
well - conditioned mind: the farmer
thanked hi:n and asked his name. The
youth at once saw an opportunity for a
good joke.
"Green." said the Harrovian.
'"What is your father"
"A cheesemonger in London, in
Theobald's road rather a small shop."
was the wholly imaginative answer.
"Vou are a capital young chap; I
sha'u't .forget you," said the farmer.
And he left the youth chuckling over
the incident ami the sell."
1 ears passed, and the lively :.:--:
of the Harrow scholar proved io have
cost him a fortune. The newspapers
had advertisements for a young gen
tleman of the name of Green, whose
father some time kept a cheesemonger's
shop in Theobald's road, ami to whom
a large legacy was devised in recogni
tion of a service rendered at Harrow
about ten years before. As the pub
lished clew to identity was wholly
false and mistaken. through an ill-timed
levity, the money could never be
claimed.
In the correspondence of Sir John
Iiurgoyne there is the story of a girl's
warlike jest that recoiled. It was dur
ing the height of the Crimean battle
storm. A young lady was correspond
ing with an officer at the front. She
wrote in a lively fashion, and. she asked
that when Menschikoff was taken her
soldier friend would be sure to seDd
her one of the buttons off the prince's
coat. It so chanced in the fortunes
of the campaign that the letter con
taining this paragraph fell into Rus
sian hands, and reached Menschikoff
himself.
The commander-in-chief was grimly
equal to the occasion. . He .returned
the letter to its writer, and with it he
inclosed a coat button and a message
intimating that, as he might not be
taken prisoner for some time, he pre
ferred to avoid delay and oblige the
lady at once.

Liniment.
A Cure for the Ailments of Man and Beast
A long-tested pain reliever.
Its use is almost universal by the Housewife, the Farmer, the
Stock Raiser, and by- every one requiring an effective
liniment.
No other application compares with it in efficacy.
This well-known remedy has stood the test of years; almost
generations.
No medicine chest is complete without a bottle of Mustang
Liniment.
Occasions arise for its use almost every day.
All druggists and dealers have it.
