from a school teacher: “Recently one of
m> boys came to school with two pack-
ages of cigarette papers. We put them
into a pint bottle and nearly filled it with
water; by Thursday it was a thick solu-
tion, so thick that the liquid would hardly
out of the bottle. The boys caught a
mouse and gave him about a third of a
.teaspoonful. He never lived to (eave the
boy’s hands. The boys were convinced
that it was poisonous, but the girls de-
clared that the boy squeezed the mouse
so hard that it died. So a day or two
later the boys came to the school with

Heavy rainfall: Allendale, S. C., 2.04.
Quite heavy rains fell over the eastern
portion of the cotton belt, but no rain fell
in the Little Rock and Oklahoma dis-
tricts, and only traces in the Galventun
and New Orleans districts. The temper-
atures fell considerably over the Atlanta
district, but elsewhere they did not change
greatly. -

SERVED THEM RIGHT.
Weimar Mercury.
Once upon a time there was a lot of
business men of a town who listened to
a liar who was trying to sell tffem a lot
of patent medicines, and who thought
that a local paper wasn’t much pumpkins,
and that they had better spend their
money in a red blaze write up, given
them in a paper published 200 miles from
the town. They believed him and each
gave him the required amount of orders,
and each received so many papers to dis-
tribute, but nobody about town or in the
country wanted the papers, and they were
finally thrown away, or used for wrap-
ping paper. The local paper was ne-
glected, the editor’s wife starved to death
trying to live on a diet of bed slats and
onions, and the editor shortly followed
her to heaven, where he was given a harp
and summoned to appear as a witness
against the business men of that town
and his delinquent subscribers on the day
of judgment. The town is now covered
with weeds and the business men and de-
linquents are waiting in fear and trem-
bling for Gabriel’s horn, for they know
they will have to meet that editor.

SUMMARY OF WEATHER.
The pressure has generally diminished
slightly over the east. A slight barometric
depression is central over eastern Iowa,
and a troughjike area of low pressure ex-
tends from the upper Ohio valley and the
southern Lake region southward to Ari-
zona. Slightly lower temperatures pre-
vail over the east. Over the lower Lake
region and the middle and lower Missis-
sippi valley it has grown warmer. Scat-
