He knew from experience that the vet eran financier rarely in the spring and fall misses one of these “clear¬ ings out.” Hr.

The gallant knight flinched slightly be¬ neath the steady gaze.

Then he hove two. “You did not,” repeated his maj¬ esty. “I know you did not. The trouble is that in knotical parlance you did not knot fast enough.” The king’s features relaxed as he relieved himself of ibis humorous sally, and, taking Sir Thomas by the arm, he permitted one eyelid to slightly droop as they passed down the corridor and through door.—Cleveland a green baize swinging i Plain Dealer. Paris and Snails. j Some alarm is expressed hv ccr tain Paris epicures because the sup pi of snails of the finest quality s to be falling off to a serious extent. This apprehension, how ever, will cause no distress upon an extended scale, as the taste for the deliberate creature that carries his house upon his back has not been worldwide. In fact, it has never gained much ground outside of the Latin race, and beyond the borders of France itself the number of gour mets who have extolled the snail as a table delicacy of the most desir able sort has not made a long list, But snails are clean feeders. Why should there be anywhere a preju dice against them among the eaters of lobsters and crabs, of sty fed pigs and of the bulging legs of gog gle eyed bullfrogs? Sinking Creek Has Sunk Again. The disappearance of Sinking crock, a large mountain stream in v Pendleton county, W. Va., has mys titled the people and has caused financial loss. It furnished power fur several mills, but has suddenly disappeared. Some weeks ago the water in the stream began to fall and now the bed is almost dry. There has been plenty of rain, and the only explanation of the,stream’s disappearance is that it has worn its way through into a subterranean cavern and joined one of the under ground streams. Old citizens say that the creek disappeared in the j same manner many years ago by finding a subterranean outlet. This i incident gave the name to the creek. —Baltimore Sun. Long Drawn Out. Wien the French academy was founded in 1635, it started to make : a dictionary of the language. This was first published in 1691 and a seventh edition in ISIS. But about forty years ago a new dictionary was begun, th.e nation appropriating nearly $13,000 yearly to carry it on. So far the academy has not got be yond the letter A, and to stir it up there is talk of withdrawing the na tional grant unless better speed is shown. ». Kipling Story. As a preface to his attack upon the recent army appointments in England Rudyard Kipling tells a stcry of a man who was carrying a bag and of whom a fellow traveler asked what it was that the bag contained. “Mongooses,” was the answer. “My brother sees snakes, and I’m taking the mongooses up to them.” “But your brother doesn’t see real snakes?” “No; I but these aren’t real mongooses.” WEEKLY — BANS Ell- When you feel that life is hardly worth the candle take a dose of i ham her! a in’s Stomach and Liver Tablets.

There was the “old woman” to he reckoned with in the shoe, but G.

Gt i PLAYHOUSE IN A BOTTLE. from Omaha, where it was once on exhibition in the Transmississippi exposition. It is made of wood. At Omaha it did double work as advertising agent for the firm whose goods it represented and as a candy booth. It was shipped back to Mr. Vinton, who built it, to be smashed up for firewood. But the ever alert young Vintons heard of it, and then they pleaded until he promised them the bottle for a playhouse. Though a ten foot section of the neck was left out and another ‘section from the bottom, the cork is still high enough so that when the little fellows wake up they house can see the cork of their play through their second floor windows. The bottle has a door large enough for them to enter, though the children are sure there would be more fun in crawling in and out where the cork fits in the neck. At least ten small children cart get into the bottle and imagine to their hearts’ content that they are sirup and pickles and everything else that they can’t have much of.— Detroit Journal. Young Clockmakers. Atlanta, Ga., boasts of some in¬ genious and ambitious boys since two lads of that place, the older but fourteen and the younger eleven, have designed and constructed a clock that is a wonder of painstak¬ ing work. It contains over 300 pieces of wood, all of them cut from boards with a smail foot power scroll saw and afterward sandpapered and put together with screws and mucilage. The clock rey resents a cathedral, from the dome of which a bell peals forth the hours of the day. Inside the building the columns and statu¬ ary of a cathedral are reproduced in wood. The clock is fifty-one inches high and twenty-one inches wide at the base, and the contrast in colors is decidedly pretty, the wood used be¬ ing maple, white holly and walnut. The figures on the dial were cut from walnut with a pocketknife aud look attractive on the white holly. of Notwithstanding the the simplicity tools used, the boys have suc¬ ceeded in producing a timepiece of which they may be justly proud.— American Boy. Was Moses a Cowboy? Fred heard his father talking about a cattle stampede in the west, where the cowboys were caught in the great rush and some of them trampled to death. After a minute or two of ’profound thought he said: ‘Tapa. was Moses a cowboy"'” “No, Fred. Why do you ask?” “Well, I’ve always heard of him as being in the bulrushes!” 5ale Notice.
