'1 his M ly 25, 1!I07 li. P. Bailer, Adm. Julia Redding, How to Stop Runaways. The policeman had stopped the run away very neatly. Now, though puff ing a little, lie was quite calm. “It’s nothing to stop a runaway.” he said as lie wiped his foam covered hands. “It is like jumping on or off a moving car—dead easy when you know how. What you want to do when you see a runaway tearing toward you is not to stand still, but to run all your might in the same way the nag's n-go lng. Then, when it catches up to you, you grab the bridle and keep a-run ning. Then you are not thrown, you are not trampled on, and in a minute or two the horse slows down. I’ve stopped a dozen runaways without an accident. It’s part of our training, and the policeman who would refuse to take n chance would be disgraced the same as a soldier who would refuse to fight.”—New I York Press. V/aked Him Up. “Faro!” Tho passenger gave no heed. “Fare, please!” Still was the passenger oblivious. “By the ejaculatory term ‘fare,’ ” said tire conductor. “I imply no refer ence to the state of the weather, the complexion of the admirable blond you observe in the contiguous seat, nor even to the quality of service vouch safed by this philanthropic corpora tion. I merely allude in a manner per haps lacking in delicacy, but not in conciseness, to the monetary obligation sot up by your presence in this ear and suggest that, without contempering your celerity with cunctation. you liquidate.” At this point the passenger emerged from his trance.—Columbus Dispatch. Tres Fountain. An extraordinary curiosity is to bo seen in the Swiss village of Gunten. on Lake Thun. It takes the form of a nat ural tree fountain, the water flowing continuously from a spout high up in the tree. About twenty years ago the water from a spring was conducted through a shaft, and the supply pipe was directed through the cut trunk of a young poplar tree which was rammed in the ground. After a short time the trunk rooted, branches followed, and now there is a splendid top growth. Friendship. Friendship Is a vase which when it is flawed by boat or violence or acci dent may as well be broken at once. It never can be trusted after. The more graceful and ornamental it was the more clearly do we discern the hopelessness of restoring it to Its former state. Coarse stoues, if they are fractured, may be cemented again; precious ones, never.—Landor. Greet Laughers. The giant laughers have been men— Shakespeare and Rabelais. I do not regard Cervantes and Sterne as laugh ers. They are smilers. They are not Jolly roarers and guffawers. They are not fat, rotund, jovial hilarities. They are thin. lean, ironic smiles. A smile Is a diluted laugh. Sterne is a diluted Rabelais.—James Douglas in M. A. I\ —■** T ■ Customs of Brittany. Brittany alone, of all the provinces of France, seems to have preserved its types anil individuality. To be Breton is by no means to be French. The old men to this day shatter in the Celtic tongue. The Breton mother when not nt work in the fields sits In the door of her cottage plying the distaff and recit ing the old legends and quaint folk songs to the white coifed baby beside her.

Tho Men of the West. * In the broad west work, even the humblest—raising a roof, making the desert blossom—has almost the thrill of creation, as all necessary work has if one can isolate it* enough to see clearly its dignity. So, there, do the strong, kindly men stand out—clean, refreshing as the air of their high pla teaus, solid and reassuring as the mountains from which they have taken strength. They are ours, these men. and their generations yet unborn. In their presence one may puff aside the talk of graft and selfishness, the music hall cynicism that Yankee Doodle has become Yankee boodle. This is our country—these our people. It is good now and then to get down to the ground.—Outing Magazine. Colors or Lakes. Some lakes are distinctly blue. Others present various shades of green, so that iiv some cases they are hardly dis tinguishable from the level, grass cov ered banks. A few are almost black. The lake of Geneva is azure hued. Both Lake Constance and the lake of Lucerne are green. The color of the Mediterranean has been called Indigo. The lake of Brienz is greenish yellow, and Its neighbor. Lake Thun, is blue. Putting Something In It. An Irishman who had started pho tography went into a shop to purchase a small bottle in which to mix some of his solutions. Seeing one he want ed, he asked how much it would be. “Well,” said the chemist, “it will be twopence as it is, but if you want any thing in it I won’t charge you for the bottle.” “Faith, sor." said Pat, “til*® put a cork in it” -Loudon Queen.

A London exquisite had gone into a west end restaurant and w ns? far from pleased with the way in which his or der was filled. “Do you call that a veal cutlet?” ho demanded of the waiter. “Why. such a cutlet as that is an insult to every self respecting calf in the British em pire.” The waiter bung his head for a mo ment, but recovered himself and said in a tone of respectful apology: “I really didn’t intemd to insult y o% sir!”—London Answers.
