I praised the other day In Qal-
veFion xne cowony auiurmiuiiu.
"The"" Cowboy automobile has
eome to stay," he said. "A
cowboy at the wheel can handle a hundred
' times as many steers as a cowboy in the
saddle."
"But the expense!" sold an English
rancher.
"It's cheaper In the Ions; run," said Col
onel Crowley. "I don't believe in cheese,
parlnf on these western plains of ours.
Cheeseparing out here, amid this boun
teous nature, looks as ridiculous as the
tactics of the Bt. Joseph mlrer.
"There are, you know, two famous mis
ers In 81. Joseph two old bachelors, of
course. The old miser called on the
younger the other night and found him

when he found there was a mortgage paper

read through he blew out the candle

little offended, askod.
" 'Now. my dear sir." said the host, "can't

course we can. and think how it saves the
cat die.'

sounds coming from his guest's chair
strange creaks and rustlings and at last

Prosecutor Bovel of Camden tells a
stcry which he says happened at Qnose
Keg Cove, on the New Jersey side ot
Pelaware bay. The farmers from miles
round take their families to the cove
in the summer for a picnic.
Last lummer among the crowd was one
Camden ccunty man who had drunk too
much 8alem county app'ejack. He mado
himself obnoxious, by going to the men
s they were with their womenfolk, and
shaking his fist under their noses, say
ing. "I can lick you. Come . out and
flgut." No one would fight, because he
was evidently drunk.'
Convinced that he had scared them all.
he walked up and down the beach, say
ing, "I can lick any one cn the beach."
He repeated this to every one he met
Finally an Inoffensive little family man
standing with a group Jumped Into him
and beat him Into submission. When he
was finally allowed to get up, the Cam
den mas struggled to bis faet, and. look

"Me and this little feller can lick any
man cn the beach."
Reasons for Ualttiasr Polplt.
Bishop Willard Francis Mallalieu of the
Methodist Episcopal church la opiosed to
the diminutive salaries that congregations,
able to do better, sometimes pay -their
pastors. "I once knew an excellent young
man," said he, one day In Boston. "He
was In the church, just married, on a small
salary, but contented and happy. Twelve
or fifteen years went by. I had lost sight
of this young minister forgotten him, as
we all do sometimes when suddenly I met
him on Tremont street, dressed well, but
not at all clerically.
"We shook hands. He sild he was doing
excellently.
" 'What church?' I said.
" 'Oh, he said, no church the wholesale
hat business.'
" 'But why did you leave the church?' I
asked.
" 'For seven reasons,' said he.
" 'And what,' said I, 'were they?'

Bpeaklng about the handwriting which
Is bard to read, an old-time conductor on
the Louisville Nashville railroad told a
story about James Outhrle. Mr. GuUirle,
besides being secretay of the treasury un
der James Buchanan, was also president of
the Louisville & Nashville railroad and a
resident of Louisville.
In the early days of railroading there
were no printed passes as at present, and
Mr. Outhrle would frequently write a pass
for a friend pn a scrap of paper. The con
ductors on the road would honor these, of
course, but one farmer carried a piece of
paper purposing to be a pass for a friend
on a scrap of paper. The conductor hon
ored It, but later grew suspicious, and one
day took It up. He carried it to the office
of President Outhrle and said:
"A farmer has been riding on this pass
for about a year. Do you want him lo
continue to use It?"
President Outhrle put on his glasses,
louked the paper over .carefully and aald:
"Why, this is not a pass. It is a receipt

a year ago." Louisville Courier-Journal.
Obrrlns; Doctor's Orders.
A prominent physician of Baltimore tel's
of an amusing experience of the early days
of his practice when he was residing In a
small town where by far the majority of
the workers were coal miners.
"1 was greatly distressed by the Insani
tary conditions prevailing In their cot
tageu," says the doctor, "und among ether
things I tried to explain to each household
the Importance of maintaining a whole
some atmosphere In the sleeping rooms. I
laid In a stock of thermometers, which
were distributed to the households where
they were mtst needed. I took pains to
point out to each family In turn Just how
the thermometer would indicate the proper
degree of temperature.
"As I was making the rounds ono day I
inquired of the woman at the head of one
establishment, wherein I observed my ther
mometer proudly displayed at the end of a
string, whether she had followed my In
structions. " 'Yes, sir," answered she, 'I'm very
careful about the temperature. I watch
the thing all the time as it hangs up
there.'
" 'What do you do when the tempera
ture rises above 68?'

Putting It Gently.
The sages of the general store were dis
cussing the veracity of old Si Perkins, when
Uncle Bill Abbott ambled in.
"What do you think about it, Uncle Bill?"
they asked him. "Would you call 81 Per
kins a liar?"
"Wall,"' answered Uncle Bill slowly, as he
thoughtfully studied the celling. "I don't
know as I'd go so far as to call him a
liar exactly, but I do know this much
when feedln' time comes. In order to get
any response from his hogs, he has to get
somebody else to call 'em for him." Every

Clergyman Sqnelches a Pantheist.
In the town where the Rev. Dr. Emmons
was pastor, lived a physician tinctured with
the grossest form of pantheism, who de
clared that if he ever met Dr. Emmons he
would easily floor him In argument. One
day they met at the bom of a patient. The
physician abruptly asked Dr. Emmons:
"How old are you, sir?"
The doctor, astonished at his rudeness,
quietly replied, "Sixty-two; may I ask, sir,
how long you have lived?"
"Since the creation," was the pantheist's
reply.
"Ah, I suppose, then, you were in the
garden of Eden with Adam and Eve?"
"I was there, sir."
"Well." said the wily divine, "we all
know there was third person present.

New Alternating Cnrrent Motor.
A Glasgow firm has placed on the mar
ket an alternating current Induction motor
ot novel design. Intended largely for tex
tile mills, although equally applicable to
other kinds of driving. In Induction motors
the main magnetic field between the rotor
and the stator revolves at a certain fixed
speed, and. electrically. It la Immaterial
whether the stator or the rotor revolves
with the. field. In starting an Induction
motor with the load on a great deal of
current is required. But In the new motor
the ordinary rotor which drives the shaft
ing and machines Is not started first; In
stead the ordinary stator la perm tted to
start, and, as It has no load, It takes very
little current. When It arrives at full speed
a brake Is gradually applied lo It. and as
Its speed falls the rotor gains speed In the
opposite direction of rotation, so as to
maintain the Kume relative speed between
them. Finally, wImui the ststor Is held fast
by the biakc, the rotor has aUiilurd Us full
speed, and this without taking an excessive
starting current.

lordship must go to Algiers or some winter
resort on the Riviera."
"Impossible," replied the bishop; "quite
Impossible. I have too much work to
get through."
"Well," said the doctor, "you must make
your choice. It's either Algiers or heaven."
"Dear me!" exclaimed the bishop with a
algh; "then I suppose It must be Algiers."
