TIRED OF ‘‘TRIAL'’ MARRIAGE —— ' Colored Man Fell Into the Trap and Had Had Nothing But Tribulation. “T’anky, ash; t’anky!" gratefully •aid a ramshackle-looking colored citi zen who had percolated into the office of a prominent attorney of Polkvllle, Arkansas. "And die yuh am what yo’ kin do for muh, cuhnel, if yo* please; I wants to git dls trial marriage dat I’s Into busted up so’s I kin git out’n it BE’in." “Trial marriage ?’’ echoed the legal luminary. "Yassahl Dat’s what it's done been —a trial—fum de beginnin’ twell plumb ylt! Trial, sah—trial and trlb- bylation!—all de'time! And I knowed how 'twould be befo’ I got Into de trap.

FATTENER OF SPRING POETS Farmer Took Them Lean and Mourn ful and Taught Them Life le Worth Living. “That feller, settin’ on the fence yonder,” said the local historian of rural life, “has plowed more spring poets than any farmer in the settle ment.” “Plowed them?” “Yes; learn’t ’em how to plow—how to run a straight furrow and manage a Georgia mule. Plowed ’em, an’ fat tened ’em, and made ’em know that life’s wuth livin’. They come loafin' rpun\ lean as a razor-back shoat, ah’ hungry . an’ lonesome, tingin’ songs l>out trees an’ flowers, an’ cowbells, an* cool grass, an’ Lord knows what, an* that feller takes ’em in’ an’ aston ishes ’em with three meale a day— lets ’em hang roun’ easy, un’ rest up for a week, mebbe, then puts ’em to plowin’, with hoein’ on the side for recreation,' an’' before you know, they’re too fat to sing! "You see, these here poet-fellers never do none o’ that melancholy writin* or ’singin”, as they call It, ’cept when they’re short on vlttles, an’ as holler as a dead tree; then they feel that the world owes ’em a living’, but they ain’t gittin’ it, an’ midnight owls can’t heat ’em at com- plalnlh*. But you jest work ’em an* fattenv’em, an* there’s change in their dispositions an’ life looks, as bright as a.UorfehMght 'procession to ’em. 'bid der singin’ ’bout beautiful trees, they git healthy exercise euttin* ’em down, an' they soon find that a breakfast of ham an' eggs is fur an' away ahead of rose-leaves an’ dreama. “Here come two new ones—them leen-looking chaps, climbin’ the fence. Watch that farmar git ’em!“—Atlan ta Constitution. Down Where Itfe Hot. The deepest bobs in the world up to date is the boring begun ten yean ago at Csnchow. Silesia, with the ob ject of attaining a- depth of 9,509 me ters, and' which has now reached a depth of 2,240 meter* (7,842 feat). The bore is 44 centimeters in diam eter at the top, and diminishes pro gressively to five'centimeters. ' Meas urements'of temperature have been made regularly. At 2,220 meters the temperature le 88.4 degrees C. (182 degrees F.). This gives a “geother mic degree” (amount of descent cor responding to a rise of temperature of 1 degree C.) of 31.8 meters. The change of temperature does not pro ceed uniformly. In fact, an interest ing “temperature inversion” occurs be tween the depths of 840 and 730 me ters, where the temperature actually falls, with descent, about two degrees. —Scientific American.
