a}; Mr. Jimsmith Bepnlses an Agent. ’ Mr. Jimsmith, the lawyer, whose rame is a honsthold word in Chicago, recently mat-ed into a beautiful suburb- an home. He is highly pleased with it in a general way, but so many agents call upon him that he finds it rather a bore. The other day he opened the door to 12 agents before the afternoon was half ever, and when he was sum- moned to the door for the thirteenth time he was mad enough to fight a herd of porcupines. A tall, sadeyed man, dressed in black, confronted him and started to say something, but Mr. Jim- amith interrupted him: “You don't need to tell me what you have to sell, because I don't want it; I don't need a burglar proof clock. nor a bootjack that has a. music box in it, nor a stem winding can opener: I don't" “ My dear sir. you are mis" “Oh, you don't need to ‘dear sir’ MILLINEHY HILLINERY Jlfrs.

J OB PRINTING- Thcre is a cat out in Colorado which has probably viewed mom scenery in the Rocky Mountain region than any other member of the feline species. It was the Special pct. of the wife of the engineer of a freight locomotive, and it accompanies him on every trip he make-I When the train umch one of its long waits at the depot the cat will go in search of fun or mice, and at some of the most used junctions it is quite a local pet. When the engine is running, the cat sits in the cab or on the coal. and as its for is jet black. its beauty is not greatly impaired by its peculiar surâ€" roundings. I’ussy must have travelled many thousand miles. for it has been doing duty many years and has never been known to miss a trip. The tirat journey or two lhcre was much difiiculty about keeping the animal from jumping off, but there is none now, nor does the owuer bother hims‘eli'about ascertaining whether his feline passenger is aboard or not. The absolute indifiercuce of cats to persons and their attachment to places and environment is seen in this inâ€" fliction, for when last year the engineer got injured in a “rock and was laid up for three months. the cat stayed around the shops until the engine was repaired and then resumed her rides with the substitute eugineer.â€"-S(.

A few days ago the Brink of England presented a return to the House of Cour mons showing that there Wore notes of theirs to the amount of nearly £10000 that wore issued more than forty yo:er ago and had never been presented for payment. Bank notes, like other slips of paper, occasionally get destroyed by accident. Tile Bank ol England has always proudly dcclim-d to take advan- ~ tage of any accidents befalling their notes, provided they can be as.~urcd ol the good faith of those who appeal to them. Among, the curiosities of Threadâ€" needlc street they have, or they had, not a great while ago, in a little glazed , frame displayed on the wall. the charred remains ofa note that had been taken out of the fire of Chicago. As a note it had been completely burned, but the material of which Bank of Eng-laud notes are made is of such a character that it was still poSsiblo to establish the fact that it really had been a bond, and the numbtr and value were still discern iblc. It was therefore cashed. ~â€"¢-o-â€"- One of the Queerest Villages. One of the most curious settlements is at McAdam Junction, near the Eastâ€" ern Maine border. Half a dozon old, condemned freight ears have been re- trieved from their trucks and are snug- gled together in a bizarre village. Fam- ilies live therein, and children play about the doors. The squat little Shan- tytowu makes Waiting at that dreary junction even more dcpressing. Another feature of the landscape is the Canadian Pacific “ boncyard." Nearly a score of crippled, condemned and partially divâ€" mountcd locomotives stand about in the field, wholly unprotected from the. ch. ments. Perhaps they're not \vorth root'- ing, but it strikes a thrifty soul rathrr queerly to see what represents probably 8500.000 of outlay nearly buried in ice and snow and utterly neglectedâ€"Lewis» (on Journal. â€"-â€"-~â€"-o + o ‘ The Bullfrog’s Stolen Dinner. Here is the quot-rest bullfrog story on record: A youth who lives at High Shoals says that his father’s cowa fre- quently came up at night with the ap- pearance of having been milked. His father got tired of it and sent him to the pasture with the cows to catch the thief. He spent the day near enough to the cows to watch them, he thought, but at night it was still evident that the cows had been milked again. He was scolded and sent back with them the next day. About 11 o'clock, he says, a cow went into the canes and lowed. 'lIe crept through the brush and caught the thief in the act, and he proved to be a bulll'rog as large as a hat. The frog was hanging on to the cow's udder and seemed to be enjoying, his dinner im- mensely.â€"â€";S'avunnuh News. -~-‘~- -«~~ â€".-oâ€". â€" _.~__. How Cigar Ashes Can Be Utilized.
