On the commons, near where A. T. McClure now lives on Main street, then owned by Archie Camph,-I I, were some apple trees on which some Tory sour apples grew. One eveninp MrB. Womer told George that she wanted him to get her a few of those apples the following morning to use in eome jelly she wanted to make. Tba night George dreamed that he hi3 climbed an apple tree and while knock ing apples off the tree a very cross looking old woman, with a broomstick in one hand, suddenly appeared under the tree and in no gentle tone demand ed that he come down out of the tree immediately, which he did as quickly as possible, and only by quick action escaped the broomstick. In the morn Jog, forgetting the dream, George wept after the apples and white on the tree Mrs. Archie Campbell suddenly appeared, with broomstick In hand, and the dream of the night before became a reality. He escaped the broomstick. . Sow venlr Pins, - One of the souvenirs on sale at var ious novelty stands in Raynoldsville bis week which has some local signifi cance, Is the "Big Stick" scarf pin.

Ogen:MEdelbltte,-2; Prop. A Dinner th Dramatist Served During the Siege of Paris. Viciorlen Snrdou, the (Iriunntlst, told the following story: "On Christmas day, 1ST0, that is to sny toward the end of the siege, I received leave of ab sence, having boiiilmrded the Prus sians across the river since early morn ing and repaired to a celebrated restau rant. On the way n stranger accosted nie. 'M. Snrdou, I have something for you,' indicating the basket he carried, 'provided you will pay enough for It What is it a curio?' I asked. 'Much better still; something for Christmas dinner,' he said, amL after a pause, whispered, 'A -calf's head.' Observing my incredulity, he uncovered the bus ket and showed me It admirable and fragrant, on a bed of parsley. I re solved to have it at any price, paid the then remarkably low price of 00 francs ($12) without grumbling and bade him .follow me to the restaurant, where I turned it over to the waiter with in structions to prepare it carefully for the dinner thnt I was giving. "In the midst of the dinner, after struggling with an unusually tough horse steak, I announced a surprise. 'What Is it?' my guests all exclaimed together. 'A htfm? Fried eels? Stuffed turkey?' 'No, something far better than that,' I said, Impressively. 'A calf's head!' My words were received with spontaneous cheering, As the smil ing waiter put in an appearance and carefully set down a large platter, to ward which all eyes were Instantly turned. Rut will miracles never cease? instead of the coveted calf's head there wfis n thick and greasy yel low liquid! " 'By the Jlpnl'3'!' I cried, turn ing fu'rlously'on the Tl- 'M-v 1,e,u,! My head!' 'Your head,' he "wweml submissively, 'there it is, nionsieu? 'What's that?' 'It has melted, mon sieur, melted down to thnt.' It turned out that the head was mnde of molded gelatin and so carefully imitated that the manufacturer, I have since heard, was able to dispose of thirty among gentry as naive as myself." Chicago News. "Manners Makyth Man." , William of Wykehnm, a fourteenth century bishop of the see 0f winches tor, was not only a rt clergyman and a great statesn but one o( tne greatest builder. J,f m(Wie ngeg. He was the Vnm.lee of Winchester col lege, whlcja ,g the oMegt of a tne Kn(?. ,lsn rtllc schools. He was the chief "Vhftect of the Cathedral of Winches ter, and when, the king wanted a new wing on his castle at Windsor he or dered WJ-kham to build it." Wyke ham was bo proud of his work that he chiseled on It, "Hoc fecit Wykeham" Wykehnm made this). At this the king was very, angry, for he thought he had Imllt the castle himself, and Wyke ham would perhaps have lost his head if he had not kept his wits about him. He explained that it was his greatest fflnry to be the builder of his king's palace and that the Inscription should read, "This was the making of Wyke ham." The translation was clever enough, nntV, though the king wnsrob nblv not deceived, Wykeham kept his head on his shoulders. Perhaps the king would have beeu sorry to lose so valuable a man. At any rote, you can see the Inscription to day from the north terrace, and the Incident throws no little light on the sincerity of the motto on the Winchester arms, "Man ners makyth man." Could See Through His Nose. Several authors at the end of the sixteenth and beginning of the seven teenth century mention a man who had lost both of his eyes, but could see through h!i nose. An account of hlni Is given in the "Occulus Artificinlls Teledioptrlcus" of Joannis Zahn. . It apiiears that be lived In the country and had the misfortune to lose his right eye when a child and his left when somewhat older by falling fron a cherry tree upon a spike which mu tllated bis nose and cheek. After the wound had healed he found that be could see through the cavity of his nose not merely the daylight, but the colors of the Sowers around him. Dur ing the next five or six years he learn ed to distinguish objects brought un der his nose. A French physiologist explained the phenomenon by suppos ing that the membranes, and particu larly the retina at the base of the eye, were sound and that an opening com municating with the nose permitted the light to reach the retina through the nose. It is well known that if light enters a dark room by a narrow aperture It will form an Image or pic tore on a screen there, und something of the kind happened in the case of the man who saw with his nose. Suffered For Her "Crime." In this "age of the child" such a sit uation as Is described below seems In credible. Yet It Is vouched for by Henry Blake In "Chronicles of New Haven Green." The adult of today might not regard the small offender as wholly lost to a sense of right and even If he did bis sympathy would not be with the sentence pronounced. A little girl was tried In New Haven In 1651 before the magistrates' court. Her offense was "prophane swearing." The language with which she was charged was the fiendish expression of "As I am a Christian." The child's mother by way of extenuation suggested -that her little daughter "learned her 111 car riage at Ooodwlfe Wlckham's, where she went -to school." One cannot won der that the frightened little culprit denied the charge. But even the child' ish terror did not soften the hearts of the righteous Judges. The denial made matter all the worse. The tiny de linquent was .found guilty, lectured with lurid warnings, fined 10 shillings (or profanity and ordered to be "whip per according to her years" for telling wjiBMeaBnsVsaMBaHnMHHn ) j t ' , ' ' " ' , ; , 'i ' t ' " , " "" Adam's Shoe Shop.
