send-Grim automobile law, which pro
vides for the registration of machines

HELPED THE CABMAN.
But Not Because He Had Driven Him
Years Before.
A ver.v old man mice called to see
Lord Strnlhcona at Ills tillkes and ex
plained as tin 1 reason <>f his visit that
he way the cahuian who drove him to
his ship when he set sail for Canada
long years before.
Lord Strathcona was Interested hi
this reminiscence of his youth and lis
toned to the ancient jehu when he
went 011 In a tearful voice to complain
that death had just deprived him of
one of two grandsons and that he
himself had fallen on evil times.
Lord Strathcona soothed the old fel
low's sorrows with a little money.
Again, after a time, (lie old man
called on Lord Strathcona and this
time told him that both Ills grandsons
were down with typhoid fever and, as
Lord Strathcona had helped him be
fore, perhaps he would again. After
some gossiping chat about Scotland
Lord Strathcona again comforted the
old man with a little money.
When he had gone an official who
had overheard the conversation said:
"I hope you did not give that man
any money. Lord Strathcona. When
he saw you before one of liis two
grandsons was dead. Now he says
both are ill with typhoid fever."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Jones,"
said the high commissioner, with a
twinkle in his eye, "but do you know
when I left Scotland for Canada I had
110 cab to take me to the ship, but
just wheeled down my things myself
to the dock in a barrow."—London Tit-

A SECRET SIGNAL
TH« Tailor's Comment While Measur
ing a Customer.
"Did you ever notice how tlie tailors
while measuring a man for a suit of
clothes mix in a few letters occasional
ly among the numbers?" asked a down
town lawyer recently of a friend.
"Whenever I have been measured for
a suit of clothes the tailor always said
S. B. L.in a subdued voice as he
took the measure for the length of my
trousers. I often wondered what this
secret signal meant and on one occa
sion made so hold as to ask, but was
put aside in some casual way, which
plainly showed me that the tailor did
not wish me to know the meaning of
the mysterious S. B. L.
"Well, I never knew what these let
ters meant until one day not long ago,
when I stumbled across the solution
quite by accident. I was waiting to
have my measure taken while a strap
ping big fellow was on the rack. As
he measured the length of the trou
sers leg the tailor said, '33, S. B. L.'
" 'Yes,' came back the reply from the
big fellow, 'and bowlegged too.'
"All these years tailors have been
accusing me of being 'slightly bow
legged,' and I had never caught on
until I was practically told the an

God be thanked for books! They are
the voices of the distant and the dead

of past ages. Books are true levelers.
They give to all who will faithfully
use them tlie society, the spiritual
presence, of the best and greatest of

no matter though the prosperous of
my own time will not enter my ob

will enter and take up their abode un
der my roof—lf Milton will cross my
threshold to sing to me of paradise,
and Shakespeare to ripen to me the
world of imagination and the work
ings of the human heart, and Frank

wisdom—l shall not pine for want of
Intellectual companionship, and I may
become a cultivated man, though ex

Rssult cf Poor Writing.
The Duke of Wellington, through
misreading a badly written letter,
made a ludicrous blunder. This letter
was written by C. J. London, a botan
ical author, who wrote to the duke re
questing the privilege of seeing his
beautiful beeches. The duke misread
the signature for that of C. J. Bloom
field, bishop of London, and wrote In
reply: "My lord, I shall always be glad
to see you at Strattofleldsaye, and my
servant shall show you as many pairs
of my breeches as you tuny choose to

her attending the funeral, although
her sister, Mrs. Mack, and husband,
Chus. E. Crandel attended the last sad
rile*. We copy the following account
"I tiit funeral from the DuHois Daily
Journal :
Funeral services over the late William Hou
sel .Miller were held from tlie family residence,

o'clock. The services were conducted by Rev.

deceased had been a resident of Dußois, sever
al years ago being employed by the Jefferson
Supply company, which position he held for
about .is years, and later was employed by
Alex Crawford and served him in the capacity of
meat cutter for nearly three years.
He was a great sufferer from asthma and had
to resign his position with Mr. Crawford and
went to Kansas City, Colorado and Michigan in
the hope of regaining his health. His health
did improve to some extent and he returned to
DuHois about 18 months ago. The disease of
which he suffered returned and a complication
set in, rendering him almost helpless for months
at a time.
I During Mr. Miller's illness no one ever heard
him complain, always having a cheerful word
lor all his friends, who were legion as shown
by their tokens of esteem and sympathy during
his illness and deatn. He was aconsistent mem
ber of the Presbyterian church at this place and
attended divine service whenever he was able
to. At his own request last September the pas
tor and a member of the church administered
to him the sacraments of the Lord's supper at
his home.
The meat markets of Dußois were requested
to close during the afternoon of the funeral and
they with one accord responded to the request.
He is survived by a widow and one son ; mother,
two brothers, Abram and flus, of Philadelphia ;
three sisters, Mrs. Crandell, of Emporium,
Mrs. Chailes Diehl, of Camden and Mrs. Henry
Mack of Philadelphia.
Several friends or the deceased from Reynolds
ville attended thefuneral.
Many gifts of out flowers were evidence of the
deceased's popularity. Undertaker Moore had
charge of the funeral arrangements."
