Brighten Up Your Face.
Did you ever try to brighten
up your face and thereby scatter
sunshine upon all around you?
If not, the best prescription we
know is what is known as
“Smiles,” Read the following
and see if it won’t have the de-
sired effect: ,
Robert Clark, the artist, tells
this story: One^day while out
walking with a friend of his,
this friend complained of the
toothache and asked Mr. Cterke
what he could advise him to buy,
as they were in front of a drug
store.
“Why,” said Clarke, “the last
time I had the toothache I went
home and my wife kissed it away
from me."
After a moment’s pause his
friend said: “Is your wife home
now?”

A strapping lad of 12 was reg-
istered at one of the public
schools of Philadelphia, says a
writer in Lippincott’s. He read-
ily gave the several facts called
for, but he did not know whether
his birthday fell on the 10th of
November or' December. The
principal was surprised at this
display of ignorance on the part
ot so old a child, and he asked
bow it came to pass that he
hadn’t learned the date of his
birth. “I wasn’t born,” said the
boy, “I had a stepmother.”

The following story is told of
of Bishop Niles, ot New Hamp-
shire, while he was in Boston at-
tending the Episcopal convention:
The bishop, who is a very tall,
heavy man, was seated on one ot
the low settees in the public gar-
den, and when he started to get
up found that he had great diffi-
culty in regaining his feet.
While in the midst of his strug-
gles a wee tot of a girl came
along and offered her assistance.
The bishop ceased trying to arise,
and, after surveying the little
>girl critically, replied that she
was too small to help. The lit-
tle girl persisted that she could
help, but the bishop was ji/st as
sure that she could not.
“Well,” said the little girl, fi-
nally, “I’ve helped grandpa lots
of times when he was lots diunk-
er than you are.”

The kindness and generosity
of Colonel Robert G. Ingersol
won for him many friends who
could not but deeply regret his
opinions. Among them was
Henry Ward Beecher. In the
study of the famous preacher
was an elaborate celestial globe,
which had been sent him with
the compliments of some manu-
facturer. On its surface, in deli-
cate workmanship, were raised
figures of the constellations and
of the stars which compose them.
The globe struck Ingersoll’s
fancy. He turned it round and
round, examining it with admi-
ration. “This is just what I
want,” he said: “Who made it?”
“Who made it, do you say, colo-
nel?” repeated Beecher. “Who
made this globe? Why, nobody,
of course; it just happened.”
Quite recently a local draper
took a well known farmer’s son
as an apprentice to the business.'
One day a lady came into the
the shop and asked the lad for a
piece of si.k. He laid a variety
before her for selection, but he
became a little confused when
she demurred at the price.
After ibe customer had left the
draper said:
“Now, John, vou must show
more business tact. You should
have told the lady that owing to
a blight on the silk worm cocoon
silks were hardly obtainable.”
On the following day another
lady came in and requisitioned
John’s services for a dozen knots
of tape. Again the prices in
this rather exclusive shop were
complained of, but this time
John was equal to the occasion.
“You see, madam,” he suavely
lied, “there has been a threat
rcety of the tape worms this
hence the advance in
z
year
prices.”
John had no more trouble with
that customer.—London Express.

Cabbage Snake Not Poisonous.
In Friday’s News was an ar-
ticle about the cabbage snake in
which it was stated that that lit-
tle reptile was poisonous. The
state entomologist seems to dis-
agree with us as to the poisonous
nature of the little pest, as will
be seen from the following article
which appeared in the Honey
Grove Signal. Before you read
the article, however, we wish to
say that while it may not be
poisonous, at the same time we
are of the opinion that there are
other things that make more de-
sirable seasoning for cabbage,
and if you have anything else we
would advise its use in preference
to “Mercis albicans.” If you de-
sire, read the article:
Mr. J. W.- Crews, residing near
Dial, whose wife found one of
the now famous “cabbage
snakes” in a cabbage head a week
or so ago, sent the specimen to
the state entomologist and re-
ceived the following reply whicfi
he handed us for publication:
‘lYour cabbage worm at hand.
This little animal is very closely
related to the common Horsehair
Snake, which superstitious peo-
ple regard to have originated

charged with killing A. Mc-

defendant was given a 20 years?

to the higher court and reversed
and remanded. The venue was
changed from Lamar to Delta,
and the case was tried at Cooper
a few days ago. The defendant
was convicted ot manslaughter
and given a sentence of five
years in the pen. It is stated
that a motion for a new trial will
be made, and if that is refused,
the case will again be appealed.
