The peasant went to complain to Massoud Mirza, the shah’s oldest son. whose ear is always open to the lowest. After listening to his plaint he said; “Well, you shall have justice. I will test this matter to the core. Bring in the soldier." The gor mandizing soldier was brought in. “Cut this man's belly open," he said to the executioner. “If there is a melon inside,” he added to the peasant, “you will get your money; if not, olf goes your head.” The soldier was cut open, the melon found and the peasant paid.— San Fran REAL ESTATE AGENCY If you want to buy or sell Farm property in Sumter or surrounding counties Address MEK It ELL C A LLO W A Y Am mucus Ga. 3nio, ■WILLIAM IBEACH.

The following story is told about the beginning of Gounod's career as a musi cian; Gounod’s parents did not at all fancy his taking up music. They took counsel on the subject with the head master of' the school which their son at tended, with the following result: “Your son become a minister? Never, sir,” re plied the master. “He has a decided aptitude for Latin and Greek." The next day Master Charlie was called in M. Poirson’s study. “Well, sir, they teil me you’ve been caught writing music.” “Oh, yes, I want to be a musician.” “You a musician? Why, that's no pro fession at all. But here is some paper and a pen. Write me a new air on the words from .Joseph, ‘Scarcely merged from infancy.’ Then we shall see what you can do,” said the professor, de lighted at the cleverness of his device. It was the noon recess. Before the hell rang to resume studies Gounod was back with his page black with crochets and quavers. “What, already!”said the pro fessor. “Well, sing it." Gounod sat down to the piano and sang, and the tears soon began to gather in the head master’s eyes. He embraced his pupil and exclaimed; “Ma foil let them say what they please, you shall study music,” —Albany Express. Tlieir Soft Snap Was Short. “Ha! ha! hut!" laughed a Coachman and a Professor as they were merrily swing ing in the breeze in the top of a tree. “We are having a good time of it and feel sorry for you miserable fellows who are compelled to lie huddled together in a flybook. An Angler fastened us on a piece of gut, and in trying to make a J->ng cast the brown hackle at the end caught in a branch of this tree and it is there safely imbedded. The Angler tugged at us for a time and then the line broke and we are enjoying ourselves. He cannot reach us here, and our long days of imprisonment in a fly nook, suc ceeded by being dragged over the water and whirled around in tho air, are passed.” The Coachman and Professor tliought they had attained the height of happi ness, and they enjoyed themselves for a number of days. Then came rain, and this was followed by sleet and snow, and the gut which held them rotted and the Coachman and Professor dropped to the ground, where they were trampled in the mire by the cattle. They no longer envied their brethren in the tlybook, and amid longings and regrets they ended a miserable existence.—New York Herald. Not .S(|iiard. The Teuton is often a long time in learning American idioms. One who had been here for a year or more, and who could speak some English before his arrival, a very short and corpulent man, by the way, went to his grocer’s and paid a bill which had been standing for sev eral weeks. “Now you are all square, Hans.” “I vas vat?" “You are square,” I said. “1 vas square?" "Yes—you are all square now.” flans was silent for a moment, then with reddening face and flashing eyes he brought his plump fist down upon the counter and said: “See here, mine front, 1 vil haf no more poorness mit you. I treat you like a shentleman, 1 pay my pill, und you make a shoke of me—you say 1 vas square ven I know 1 vas round as a parrel. 1 dond like such sliokcs.

Awhile ago Dr. Finsch saw hens j scratching around in New Guinea vil- j luges, and lie learned that the domestic fowl is good for nothing except feathers, j The natives could hardly conceive that human beings could eat such a creature, j and the bare idea of lunching on eggs was enough to make a respectable Pa puan ill Chicken feathers, however, particularly if white,heighten thechanus | of the fair sex when tastefully disposed in their abundant frizzes, und so, after a! )’ t liese K tf nllB l,inlrt "'r re n ;, K ln “ ,l M wholly , , m vain.—•“Antipodean . l ravels. ________ _ _ s«vei Antidote. ln tliesedavs of the prevalent .abuse of tobacco it is well to know that many | habitual tobacco users have been cured I by . tno . loliowiii^ j- ,. plan , ,,,, Dinse who , , Miiioke i their first cigarette, say. at ? o'clock in the morning, begin putting it off just ten minutes past the hour for a few days, tlu'n make it fifteen or twenty min utes. and soon until it will h»> noon und then night before the first one is smoked.

Progress un der general parliamentary law is slow. 4 he machinery runs along smoothly enough so long as no democrat resists it workings, but the least obstruction stops it and then there is a parrot and monkey time before it gets stalled again. Of course, this is fun for the Democrats hut is annoying to the Republicans and worse than annoying to the speaker. It is simply making his life a burden. There have beeen tv> o skirmishes tins week. In ilie® hist instance Mr. j,Bbmd star led the trou Je on a decision denying the right to demand tellers, He appeal ed and the day was only saved by the somewhat doubtful victory of laying the appeal on (he table. Mr. Cannon saved the day by that motion. Mr. Holman started the second row. He took an appeal on the ground that a bill reported from the Judiciary Commit tee appropriating money for a peniten tiary must first be considered in Com mitt< ejof the whole. jThe House refused to over-rule the Speaker. Then the ma chinery moved again. The new rules are looked for with anx iety and a strong desire oil both sides to ha ve some adequate system of procedure, by a strict party vote the house commit tee on elections on Wednesday conduced to report in favor of unseating Jackson the Demoor tic accredited Representa tive from West Virginia, and declaring Smith, the Republican contestant, enti tled to the member-hip. Of t he seven teen contested election cases in the h use this is the fiist one readied, and as is generally the case the verdict is purely’ a party matter on both sides. Whatever merit there may’ be in the case each party votes lor its own man. This fact was so generally recognized that the committee on the final hearing of the case, a ter a short review of the matter, decided that it would be use.'es to dissect the evidence taken, as several da vs would be consum ed in the process, and the members were well enough acquainted with the facts ane legal points involved, anyway. There will, of course, be two reports presented to the house, a majority and a minority report. Jackson thus will hold his seat but a shot*, time in comparison with most most members who take their seats and are afterward unsuccessful in contests. There have been cases in recent years. when members held their seats into the H . ct:n <) session and were then only unseat, ed at the very close. This however never occurs where the member first recognized does not belong to the dofhinant power. Right amusing these powers of contests. Every few weeks the Past-master Gen eral gives a personal hearing l o some del egation from n near by town in the inter est of a particular candidate for post master. The railroad fare and the time consumed are both light, and the making up of a delegation is as easy as organiz ing a country surprise party. It is when two of these delegations lock horns that the real tug of war begins. For two mortal hours this week, Mr. Wanamaker listened to the orators representing four different candidates for Easton, Mary land. who were all present. The solemn looking delegations sat ranged about tho walls of the room and made havoc of the water cooler and eyed the Post-Master General, as the oratory tloyed. The Supreme court is giving a hearing this we?k. to a case in which the State ot North Caronna w . sued by a citizen of that State to compel the payment of cer tain special tax bonds issued in 186!).
