Ethics of Odd Jobbers.
That a code of ethics exists among
men of all work was discovered re-
cently by a Woodlawn householder
who hired & man to beat her rugs.
She had seen the man loafing on the
corner and asked him if he wanted a
job. He said he was a truckman, and
that he received 75 cents an hour when
employed. He was engaged to beat
the rugs at that figure. Finishing with
the rugs, the householder asked him
if he would put in three or four more
bours scrubbing the kitchen floor. He
certainly would not, although he need-
ed the money. That was woman's
work, he said, and he did not do it
even at home. His wife had to do
that.—Exchange.
Canada Wars on Beavers.
Beavers have become so destructive
along the St. Lawrence river that own-
ers of islands in Canadian and Unit-
ed States waters have been given per-
mission by the Dominion government
to exterminate them on the Canadian
side of the boundary.
An experienced trapper has been en-
gaged for the season and will make
his headquarters on Dlllingham’s fs-
land.
Beavers have not been seen along
tha St. Lawrence before in a quarter
of a century, They are protected by
game laws on the New York side of the
river.

WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY
Why One Young Chicago Matron Has
Had Her Phone Taken From
the Party Line.
The inconvenience of a party line
telephone was amusingly illustrated
in the home of a young couple in the
suburbs not long ago, relates the Chi-
cago Journal.
The telephone instrument for some
reason was located in a large closet.
A hard shower came up suddenly while
the six-year-old son was at Kkinder-
garten, and as it was near closing time
and Bobby was all unprepared for rain
his mother went to the telephone to
order a taxi to call for him. Much
to her annoyance, when she took down
the receiver she heard unmistakable
Indications of a lengthy conversation:
“Take a cup of sugar, two eggs . .
but rather than lose her opportunity
of putting in Mer call as soon as the
conversation ceased she remained in
the closet. Impatiently she waited,
taking down the receiver at short in-
tervals, only to hear: “Then bake in
a slow oven J and “No, this
recipe never fails. I always use it
. .? but was finally rewarded by
hearing the tinal “Goodby, call me up
again when we can have time for a
long visit,” After at last giving her
order to the taxi man she emerged
from the closet hot and cross, only to
find that the sun was shining brightly.
Ten minutes later up drove Bobby in
state. all smiles and enthusiasm at
his unexpected treat. That was the
last straw. The telephone still re-
mains in the closet, but the party line
is no more.
FOOR REWARD FOR BRAVERY
Evident!y the Police in Some Parts of
France Have Queer Notions and
Are Not Strong on Common Sense.
Passengers on the Bordeaux-Cette
express in France were saved from a
holdup by a masked bandit owing to
the pluck of a railroad man who hap-
pened to be traveling on the train.
Feigning sleep he waited until the
bandit was leaning over him. Then
suddenly he pulled a revolver and cov-
ered the outlaw, who was then dis-
armed and arrested by the passengers.
The latter were surprised to learn next
day that this smart act is being re-
warded by a fine of one franc and the
confiscation of the revolver—the local
police authorities having found noth-
ing better to do than prosecute for the
possession of firearms without a 1i-
cense. To this must he added a sum
of about fifty francs for the legal costs
of the case,
It seems that the local police who
would not have caught the bandit in
a score of years, have few cases In
which they can prosecute and are glad
to jump at every opportunity to show
their zeal.

Women Won't Eat Standing.
“Women are making a howl about
their rights, and they are doing right
well in their efforiz to be men,” re-
marked the old grouch, “but they are
not taking full advantage of their op-
portunities. They are smoking cigar-
ettes und rolling their own. they have
their shoes shined regular shine
parlors, they run their own automa-
biles—those who have 'em—they wear
wrist watches and they carry fountain
pens that won't write. But they are
overlooking the right to eat vertically.
They refuse to stand up while they
inhale their soup ane imbibe their
pastry. Go into these restaurants
that have stand-up tables and look
for a woman tackling her food in a
vertical position. She just isn’t. She
never will be entirely emancipated
until she can eat and run without get-
ting up.”
A Faithful Sexten.
“It may be questioned,” says a
southern man, “if important person-
ages derive as much satisfaction from
their greatness as do some lesser
holders of authority that magnify
their office. In my town there is an
amusing old colored sexton, a most ef-
ficient one, too, who is a very odd char-
acter,
“About a month gfier the coming of
a new minister to his church he was
met in the street by an old parish-
fener who asked:
“Well, Moses, how is the new min-
ister going to do? .
“40h, said Moses, ‘we is gittin’ him
into shape by degrees.’ ”

Would Sacrifice Tooth for Dime.
Carroll had a tooth pulled and
through some miraculous agency
known only to mothers and fathers
that tooth placed under his pillow at
night had turned into a silver dime.
Not many days later Carroll pre-
sented himse!f at his father's office
and demanded that another tooth be
pulled. Upon father’s refusal Carroll
erew insistent and finally between
sobs of grief he explained:
“Walter hasn't any kite, and kites
cost 10 cents at the book store, and I
wanted you to pull my tooth so I
could put it under my pillow tonight,
and then in the morning I would have
a dime and sould buy Walter a kite.”
Unanimous.
In one of the towns of the Pacific
coast a distinct earthquake shock was
felt recently, and when the municipal
building rocked perceptibly the city
fathers, then in session, left without
bothering about the usual formulas.
The clerk, a man of rules and regu-
lations, was hard put to it to give his
minutes the proper official tone, Finally
he evolved this masterpiece:
“On motion of the city hall, the
council adjourned.”—The American
Legion Weekly:
SUFFERED WITHOUT A GROAN
Aimost Unbelievable Story of Fortitude
Exhibited by Mortally Wounded
Sioux Indian Brave.
American Horse—a splendid example
of the Sioux, stalwart, broad-chested
and imperious—had been shot through
the abdomen and his intestines were
protruding from the wound. But his
wife hastened to him and wrapped a
shawl about his middle to hold them
in.
With never a word of complaint he
walked the distance to a camp fire and
sat down. It was some little time,
says Adventure Magazine, before the
surgeons tending the wounded, white
&nd red, reached him. An operation
was Recessary. American Horse de-
clined chloroform in the tepee to which
he had been removed. He had his own
palliative. He spoke a few words to
his wife, who scuttled out and re
turned with a short piece of hard
wood. This he thrust between his
teeth; he motioned the surgeons to
proceed.
During the terrible work upon him
the sweat stood out upon his fore-
head, he bit deeply into the stick, but
he uttered never a groan, nor did he
fiinch. As he well knew, the wound
was mortal; but he insisted upon sit-
ting up, until just before dawn, he fell
back—he died as silently as he had
suffered. He was man and Indian to
the end.
The annals of the plains are filled
with heroism, but there is no instance
more striking in bare simplicity and
naked fortitude than this end of Amer-
ican Horse, who fought the good fight
"and lost.
BREAKFASTS, BIG AND LITTLE
Really Makes Little Difference, Pro
vided Requisite Amount of Exer-
cise Is Taken.
Hearty breakfasts are recommended
after being frowned on by many dieti-
tians for long. Appetite, like con-
| sclence, was whispering the truth all
the time. And those who “basely yield-
ed and distended their rosy morning
cheeks with wads of sirup-dripping
buckwheat cakes and gobs of ham
and eggs, went right on keeping those
rosy cheeks; while the pale flowers
of abstinence who niggardly and dole
fully lifted to their sad mouths the
breakfast provender irrigated with
skim milk, grew no less pale if not
more So.
One must interject distinctly here,
that the robust and roseate, also made
their muscular activity consume the
heavy fuel their appetites demanded;
for a generous breakfast should not be
coddled by a whole day in an easy
chair or even In a swivel one.
Eat what you like, but hike, hike,
hike. “Shall T be carried to the skies
on flowery beds of ease?’ Precisely
“that is Where one will be carried quite
promptly by heavy meals and no exer-
cise—St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
