“We feel ” aWestern editor is quoted
as writing, “that an apology is due to
widow Grimes. In our issue ot last
week we stated that she had eloped
with an eighteen-year old man. The
truth is that she was thrown from an
eight-year-old mare, which she was
riding in a lope, ami which slipped and
fell. Mistakes will happen in the best
regulated newspaper-offices, and we
are confident that when we state the
item was sent over a telephone wire, no
other apology will be needed.”
Not long ago, as an elderly couple
■were out walking, a lady on the opposite
side of the street slipped and fell down.
The old gentleman rushed across 1 lie
street, raised his hat, and offered to
assist her in any possible way. His
wife followed him across at a slow pace,
and witnessing his devotion to the stran
ger, shook her fist al him. “It’s ail
right—it’s all right!” he whispered
“Yes, I know it is!” she excla.med,
hotly. “Here’s an unknown woman
hurts her toe, and you plow across the
street to eat her up witli kindness. The
other day when I fell down-stairs, you
stood and laughed, and wanted to know
if 1 was uracticinaf for a circus.”

A farmer near Blakely, Ga., says
that his granaries are free from rats
because of a “ rat snake,” a great pet on
the plantation, who daily visits the corn
cribs and catches any stray and indis
creet rat that may be lodging among the
corn. When the snake becomes too
familiar the farmer wnips him soundly
with a light switch.
The Jewish Messenger cites some artistic

buss instead of a knife, as the scripture
states. A French artist has drawn the
Lord’s supper, with a table ornamented
with tumblers filled with cigar lighters.
