"I should think," said Mrs.
Smith, "that it would be a
difficult feat. How in the
world do you suppose he over
learned to do such a thing?
Must have belonged to a tire

"There's two customers fur

The two strangers walked
slowly to the rear of the store
warmed themselves for a
minute, and then one of them
said:
"We've been having, an
argument, over in our store
on Lake streeet, and as there's

A WORD FOR TFE PRIVATES
The tremendous mortally
among the British officers in
the engagements in tho Sou
dan is not so much a proof ot'
the courage ol the officers as
it is the bad management, of
the army. There is a dispro
portion of officers killed and
wounded because there is a
disproportion of officers in I he
expedition. When the expe-
dition started it was looked on
asak¡1"1 "f ""'J' infernal idiot questions that

can be no doubt that more of
them were sent than were
needed. A wur department
which allows itself to be in-
fluenced by the personal pre-
ferences of regimental officers
in organizing a Soudan ex-
pedition has no sense of its
responsibility. As for the
courage shown in leading
charges and rushing into
danger we do not understand
why an offieer who takes a
place in the front lino shows
any more courage than the
private who faces death beside
him.-St1 Louis Post Dispatch.

"Where were you when the
first shot was tired?" asked a
lawyer of a female witness in
a shooting scrape. 'T was ly-

where was your husband?"
"Ho was lying down on the
back gallery." "And where
were your children1?" "They
were all lying in bed fast
asleep." "Any other members
of your family lying down ?"
"Not that I know of; but if my

His theory is to place a piece
of copper above ihe tongue
and one of zinc beneath it,
and then by closing the eyes
and letting the tips of the
pieces of metal touch each
other a flash of light can be
