"I have seen a good many drowning accidents," said an old sea captain, "and I have seen a good many queer rewards. Once a young man rescued a young widow's little son from the sea. The widow, In her gratitude, asked for the young man's photograph. He sent it to her, and two months later he received a magnificent painting, by Smith, that showed the scene of the rescue accurately, with the little boy and him, both perfect likenesses, strug­ gling like mad in the water. "A farmer, one of the Plnkertons told me, came from the west to meet a gold brick man. As the farmer and the swindler crossed on the ferry the swindler fell overboard, and the farmer rescued him. He was so grateful that he gave the farmer a brick of solid silver. "I saved a pretty girl from drowning in my youth," the captain ended. "She gave me a present that weighed 130 pounds. She gave me herself, and I've still got her. She may not be in as good condition now as she was then, but in my eyes somehow she Is as sweet and pretty as she ever was."-- Philadelphia Bulletin. Koran and Bible. Concerning the alleged resemblance between Christianity and Mohammed­ anism Rev. Napier Malcolm, in "Five Years In a Persian Town," says: "There are really not many resem­ blances to note. An officer of Indian troops replied to a Mussulman's sug­ gestion that there were resemblances between the two religions, 'There la hardly a single practical point where Mussulmans and Christians are not en­ tirely at issue,' whereupon the Mus­ sulman said: 'Sahib, you have read your Bible and have also read the Koran. I always make that remark to Christians. I made it to a padre the other day, and they almost always say: "Very true. Mohammedanism has a great deal in common with Chris­ tianity." ^yell, sahib, when they say that, I know that they have not read the Koran and that they have not read their Bibles.' »• From Jail to the Bench. Francis Pemberton (1025-97) was Im­ prisoned in the Fleet for debts con­ tracted during a period of youthful ex­ travagance. While In Jail he applied himself to the study of law and came to be regarded as a kind of legal oracle by his fellow prisoners, who nicknamed him Counselor. With the fees they gave him for legal advice he bought books to continue his studies. He then prevailed upon his creditors to grant his release from prison that he might the sooner earn money to pay off his debts. Called to the bar in 1G54, after a brilliant career in the palace court at Westminster and subsequently in the house of lords, he became a puisne judge. He was knighted in 1675 and ultimately, on the dismissal of Scroggs, was made lord chief Justice in 1681. Don't forget the dance at Lily Lake Wednesday, Oct. 4. Are" you about to have an auction ?
