A gentleman who had bought an abandoned farm on the outskirts of a small town found a dilapidated ‘•carryall’’ in the bam, whose best days were evidently so far In the past that ho considered it quite worthless. “I might as well have this shabby old concern chopped up for kindling wood,” he remarked to the old town carpenter, who hod come out to the form with him to look tho bam and bouse over with a view to reshin gling them. "It's too disgraceful to have on tho promises." “What be you nay ini" demanded tho old carpenter, turning n shocked face upon tho reckless spoakor. “If you ain't got no ubo for that ‘shabby old consorn,' os you namo it, I sb’d bo plonsed to fetch it home with me when I go.

According to tradition, ICenith, tho legendary king of Scotland, was al lured to his death in n most novel manner. Konitli had slain a son and brother of Fcnnollu, who to be avenged ordered Wiltus, a famous silversmith, to construct a death dealing statue of silver. In its right band tho statuo hold u basin and in the left band an apple of pure gold, both sot with diamonds anil other precious stones. To touch the apple was to defy death, it being so arranged that any one guilty of such vandalism would be immediately riddlod by poisoned arrows shot from oponingB in the body of the statuo. Kenith was invited to inspoct tho wonder, and, as Fonnolla hod lmpoil. bo tried to pluck tho precious imita tion fruit. When his hand touched tho apple bo was wounded by tlie ar rows nnd died whore he fell.—Jew- elors’ Weekly. GO TO THE Surprise Store. ^thkre you find tg > ■' Jieau Goods ADMINISTRATORS’ SALE.
