MR. JONES IM AN EMERGENCY.
Except for Single Unfortunate Inci
dent He Was Just the Man to
Deal with It.
When Jones reached home the other
night he found Mrs. .tones huddled up
In a corner of the sofa weeping, and
about four Inches of water ou the
kitchen floor.
The Joneses hadn't been married
very long, so lie contented himself
with a general remark concerning the
nonresourct fulness of women and
asked how It happened.
"The water pipe under tho sluk
burst," Mrs. Jones told him.
Jones smiled pityingly, walked de
liberately to the kitchen closet and
produced a wrench. Opening the cel
lar door with a confident air he de
scended to the region below.
After bumping at least seven ob
stacles he finally reached the wall and
reached out for the cock which he had
noticed in a pipe which traversed the
wall. He applied his wrench and shut
It off.
Patting himself on the back for be
ing able to cope with an emergency,
he started back upstairs. Just half
way up the steps he bumped into his
wife.
Mrs. Junes was the first to speak.
"O, dear." she said, "what In tho
world did you turn off the gas for?"

As the clergyman warmed up to bis

came from the rear with greater pow

by His Action.
A Philadelphia doctor has dlscov-
I ered n In aml iu w use for a nail Hie
J which Is likely to become much more
i prominent th;n the old use. A short
I lime ago this doctor was n guest at a
1 dinner In one or Philadelphia's limft
I exclusive houses. When the last
I course had been served and the clpars
' were being passed the doctor reached
j down Into his trousers and extracted
a penknife. Slowly he opened u lilailft.
Everybody casitod. Could it be that
Dr. would fo far forget himself
as to manicure his nails at the table?
All watched with bated broad). Slowly
(he doctor reached out and secured a
match which was near his place. Then
he deliberately struck his match on
the rot'fih part of the nail file and lit
his cii'.ar. The suspense was over nnd
the doctor had not coni'iiiitcd tli
frightful hr-aeh or etiquette which his
nss'.iciati s hud feared. Now the cus
tom Is Mircading fest. for it Is less ef
fort tiian It In to stand on one b'K tr
stri!;e the match on one's shoe, and
decidedly more elegant than the time
honored method or striking it on one's
trousers.
Probab'y True.
"Say," said the farmer, who was un
loading potatoes at the grocery, "do
you believe that story about little
Oortie Washington and the hatchet
ami the cherry tree?"
"Don't ask me," laughed the grocer.
"Well, I th'.nk It is probably trae.
Pve got a boy ten years old at home,
and after he had teased me for a ynr
or so I bought him a boy's ax."
"And did he cut down your favori'e
cherry tree?"
"He did a heap better than that
He cut down most of the apple or
chard orchard."
"And did he tell a lie about it?"
"None. Owned up like a llttlo
man."
"And, like Washington, you praised
him?"
"Unlike Washington, I didn't do
any such blamed thing. I gave him
a hiding on the spot, and have licked
him once a day since and am going
to keep it up until he is twenty-five
years old."

About seventeen years ago Thomas
A Eilisnii startled the world by carry
ing on leb graphic communication bi
tweeii a moving train n tit I stations
along the railroad without any wire
ctiiuit'ciion therewith. The system
employed was to mount a bonrd cov
eied wilb tinfoil edgewise on the car
roof. The tinfoil formed part of a
local telegraph circuit, which Induct
ively affected the telegraph wires
that paralleled the track, and In this
way the messages ' were made to
"leap" fruin the train to the telegraph
lines. The recent experiments on a
veil-known railroad where messages
were exchanged between an operator
on a fast-moving train ami operators
in Toledo. Elkhart and Chicago were
of a different character. The Hertzian
waves were used, which transmitted
the messages directly to the receiving
stations, and not to the telegraph
wires along the track.
