Emporium, Pa., August Ist, 1903. 24-tf. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY i 6, 1908 London In 1734. In 1784 M. La Combo published a ! book entitled "A Picture of London," i in which, inter alia, be says,"The highroads thirty or forty miles round London are lilted with armed highway men and footpads." This was then pretty true, though the expression "filled" is somewhat of an exaggera tion. The medical student of fifty or | more years ago seems to have been an ticipated in 17S-1, for M. La Coml>e tells I us that brass knockers of doors, which cost from 12 shillings to 15 shil i lings, are stolen at night if the maid [ forgets to unscrew I hem," a precaution | which seems t<> have gone out of fash lon. M. La Combe in another part of his | book exclaims: "How are you changed, i Londoners! Your women are become j bold, Imperious and expensive. Bank rupts and beggars, coiners, spies and j informers, robbers and pickpockets j abound. The baker mixes alum in his bread. The brewer puts opium and I copper filling In his beer. The milk- J woman spoils her milk with snails." The Blood Red Banner. Royal and national colors vary with nations and times, but since Cain slew I Abel blood red lias been the sign of re ! volt. In the earliest revolt known to i history, when the Persians rose against j their king 4,000 years ago, they were i led by a blood red banner, and during ] the riots which took place in Paris the j men in the blood red caps were fol i lowed by the mob. A blood red flag ! waved over Bunker Hill when the j Americans fought for liberty, and It I was the emblem of the German pcas- I auts in their great uprisings in 1424, | 1402 and 1525. Blood red was the col- I or of the trades union flags during the j middle ages, and it framed the back ! ground of the emblem of the Swiss | confederacy in 1315. Through the | whole of French and every other na ! tional history those striking in their I own ways for liberty have worn the j blood red cap and hailed the blood red | banner as their leader. It is a curious fact that never lias a monarch chosen I It as his color.—London Answers. Naive Lying. A police official of New York, discuss j ing the case of a policeman found I guilty of protecting gambling houses, said: "The man lied too naively in defense i of his innocence. He was like a cur i penter employed by a newspaper friend of mine. My newspaper friend writes i a good deal at home, and, his study | being next to tin? nursery, this chil ! dren's noise disturbed him, and lie em i ployed a carpenter to make the wall | sound proof between the two rooms, j 'l'll fix it all right,' said the carpenter ! confidently. 'The best tiling to do will ! bo to line it with shavings.' He com | plctcd his job. then he called the liter- I ary man in. 'She's sound proof all right i now,' he said. 'We'll test her,' said the ! literary man. 'You stay here.' And, j going into the nursery, he called to the I carpenter in the study, 'Can you hoar j me?' 'No, sir; I can't,' was (lie prompt I reply."—New York Tribune. Was Entitled to Trouble. Lord Palmorston and Sir ,). Paget, ; who told the story, were walking down ! Bond street. A man came up and | saluted the statesman. "How do you do, Lord Palmorston?" "Ah, how do? Glad to seo you. , How's the old complaint?" The stranger's face clouded over, and i be shook his head. "So better." "Dear mo! So sorry! Glad to have ! met you. Good by.'' "Who's your friend?" asked Sir James when the stranger had gone. "No idea." "Why, you asked him about his old ; complaint." j "Pooh, pooh!" replied the other un j concernedly. "The old fellow's well i over sixty; bound to have something i the matter with him."—London Globe. The Archbishop Won. I)r. Whatoly, some time archbishop j of Dublin, once bad an encounter with ! a young aid-de-camp, and the primate | emerged victor. At dinner the soldier I asked this singular question, "Does ! your grace know the difference be- I tween an archbishop and an ass?" j "Sir, I do not," answered Dr. Whately. ! "One wears the cross on liis miter and j the other wears it on his back!" ex- I plained the tactless officer. "Do you know the difference between an aid do-camp and an ass?" asked the arch | bishop calmly in return. "No, your grace. I do not," wis the reply. "Nei j ther do 1!" said Ms grace.—Liverpool | Mercury. Greeley's Writing. During the early part of the nine | teenth century the bad writing of great I men became almost a byword. In fact, j poor writing was considered by some people as almost a sign of gonius. ! Horace Greeley was sucAi a poor writ er that Ids correspondents were some times obliged to guess at his meaning. It is related that a reporter on the New York Tribune who received a letter from Greeley discharging him present j ed it as a letter of recommendation to J the editor of another paper.

The pack liiule is quite ns much ad | institution as the team mule and is j absolutely indispensable In the moun tains. Mule packing is a tine art, and with a well trai led animal and a skill ful packer you can safely transport anything from a piano to a hag of oats. When the packer has finished ids job in an artistic manner, the animal may buck or back, kick or rear or roll, but he cannot rid himself of his burden, and he finally gives it up in despair. After two or three experiences he will submit to his destiny and fall into line with the rest of the train every morn ing to receive his load from the pack er. A well trained pack mule is at ways proud of his load, and if by any means it gets loose he will step quietly out of line and wait until the pack master comes along to tighten it. The most serious objection to the mule, which you sometimes find in hu man beings also, is the delusion that lie can sinp. One who has never beard a mule solo cannot appreciate the ex tent of his mistake; but, like evcry ! thing else about a mule, his song is I strictly original. It belongs to no other animal. No one can describe and no ! one can Imitate it.—New York Mail. Mixed Pickles. Tiishop Knox once explained that "Mr. Mclienna's sword was an over loaded pistol which, beinj? hung up in a tight corner lest it should burst, pre tended to be dead until it up and trotted home on tlie friendly back of the bishop of St. Asapli." But it is in political debate, especially in the bouse of commons, that the mixed metaphor flourishes most luxuriantly. "The flood gates of irreligion and intemperance are stalking arm in arm throughout the land." "This bill effects such a change that the last leap in the dark was a mere tlea bite." "That is the marrow of the educational act, and it will not be taken out by Dr. Clifford or anybody else. It is founded 011 a gran ite foundation and speaks in a voice not to be drowned in sectarian clam or." "The question of moisture in to bacco is a thorny subject and has long been a bone of contention."—Manches ter Guardian. Tulip Soup. "What makes this vegetable soup taste so different?" asked the young husband of the pretty bride. "Only the leeks you sent home," re plied the bride. "You remember you said you were going to order leeks." "I didn't order any leeks," growled the husband, but he finished his bowl of soup rather than disappoint her. That afternoon he stopped at the grocery store. "How did you come to send leeks up to my house this morning?" lie de [ manded. "I didn't order them." j "Great Scott! I>id you eat them?" j exclaimed the grocer, j "Sure, we ate them." "Oh. for land's sake. They were Mrs. Jackson's tulip bulbs. She left them on the counter and they got into vour basket b\ - mistake."- Detroit Free I ~ Press. A Queer Practice. A queer practice which is general throughout nil the tribes of Australia is the ribbing <-C the skin. When the children are still young long cuts are made across the chest, down the up per arm anil leg uiul even across the back and ribs. While the wound is quite fresh the cut is opened and a mixture of mud is grafted in, the i skin being pulled as far as possible over it. The skin eventually grows completely round the mud filling and forms ridges varying in length and st'.c from an ordinary lead pencil to the thickness of a man's little finger and ' extending from armpit to armpit. I am informed that while the healing process is ju'oing 011 the pain is ex quisite, but the result seems to satisfy all parties concerned.—London Stand ard. The Brave Butterfly. Here is an unorthodox story of King Solomon: One day a butterfly sat on th(> king's temple and boasted to his wife. "If I chose I could lift my wing a lid shiver tills building to the ground," he swaggered. Solomon, overhearing, sent for the boaster. "liow dare you?" he thundered. The butterfly groveled, "I did it to impress my wife." he pleaded. The great monarch was in stantly appeased and let him go. "What did Solomon say to you?" gasp ed a quivering wife live minutes later. "Oh, lie begged me not to do it," said the butterfly airily. And Solomon, again overhearing, smiled.—Chicago News. Wifely Curiosity. "Henry, dear, I tried on a suit of your clothes the other day.and it fitted me to perfection." "May I ask your object in taking such a liberty with my garments?" "Why, Belle Greene said she heard Tommy To!liver say that you wasn't much bigger than a shrimp, and I was just wondering how big a shrimp is."— Cleveland Plain Dealer. Alike In One Way. "He's quite wealthy and prominent how." said Mrs. Starvem, "and they say he rose practically from nothing." "Well, well!" remarked Mr. Border.
