Hp Was Willing to Vow Yengeaac on All the Sex. Luther Biirbank, the plant wizard once showed to the students of Stan ford university an apple that was sweet on one side and sour on th other. "This apple shows us," Mr. Dur ban!; said, "how different treatments will have different effects. It shows how environment causes the most radical changes." He smiled. "As In apples, so In men," he said. "There used to live In Santa Rosa a pood, kind man, but unfor tunately he married a shrewish wife, and the woman changed his nature. "One morning, after his wife had called him a good-for-nothing loafer and snatched his breakfast away, he started off, hungry and sore for work. "A sour-looking woman entered the car he was on. She got Into a violent dispute with the conductor over her change. Finally, red with rage, she looked about her and said: " '19 there a gentleman In this car who will stand by and see a lady ln- ulted?' "The hungry man whose nature had been spoiled rose eagerly. " 'Yes, madam,' he Bald, 'I will.' " Outlined the Program. The Mission workers on the Fast Side of New York City frequently see hunierous as well as the sadder side of life. A man prominent In reform work recounts the experience of a certain young woman, new to the task, who set about posting herself as to the conditions In a neighbor hood near Avenue A. The ambitious missionary had en tered the house of an Irishwoman, and had made some preliminary in quiries, when she was suddenly In terrupted by the woman, who said: "Say, yuse Is fresh at dls business, aln"t youse?" The amateur In mission work blushingly admitted such to be the case, adding, "I have never visited you before, Mrs. Muldoon." "Thin," explained the Irishwoman, "I tell ye what to do. You sit down In that chair there, ye read ine a short psalm, ye gives me fifty cents, an' thin ye goes." Felt Sure of It. The Governor of Oregon, In one of his speeches at the Irrigation con gress according to the Magazine of Fun, told the following story apropos of the political situation in Idaho. "While coming into Boise on the train," said he, "I met a Swede, and the rest of us fell Into conversation. I asked him if he knew Governor Gooding. " 'Ya-as,' he drawled; 'I think I know Gooding. He pretty gude fel ler.' " 'Do you know Stockslager, the Democratic candidate for governorT' I asked. ; "'Ya-as,' he replied; 'I fink I know Stockslager. He pretty gude feller.' "Well, who do you think hag the best show?" asked the Governor. J " 'Well,' answered the Swede, 'I Vlnk Ringllng Brothers have the best how.' " How She Answered. Tess George wanted to know last alght whether the roses on your cheeks were real. Bess Well, what did you say? Tess Nothing I merely winked. A Species. "Mrs. Kwlvvery Is one of those anticipatory people, and I simply can't carry on a conversation with her without getting so nervous I felt as though I should fly to pieces," says the lady with the jade brooch. "Anticipatory?" asks the lady without any long gloves. "How Is that?" "She listens faster than you talk to her." Life. The First Thing. "What Is the first thing to learn bout running a motor car?" asked llie curious friond. "Economy in everything else," an swered the man who is -always get ting Into trouble. Washington Star.

A rallrnt Snnke. One does not often attribute the vir tue of patience to a sunke. "Letters From a Surgeon," however, contain an anecdote in which its existence is evi dent. Dr. Perry, surgeon of the Twen tieth Massachusetts, wakened In cnnip one morning to find himself tightly held in the clutch of Dr. Haywnrd, his senior otfleer. "Don't move, John, till I say three!" ordered the senior sharply. "Then seize my hands nud spring to your feet. One, two, three!" At the word Dr. Perry jumped, and he never nuule u cleaner leap. lie was Just In time to see a moccasin dive un der the coat which he had been using for a pillow. Armed with sticks, they dragged the coat away, but saw only the hole into which the snake had gild ed. The surgeon had accidentally block ed the entrance to the reptile's abode, and It had lain nil colled under the back of his neck, waiting patiently for him to move so It could enter. The Wrong Man. "Now, my dear sir," said the life as surance agent persuasively, "I wonder If I might put before you one or two powerful reasons why you should In sure your life '!" "Certainly, my dear sir." replied the victim; "lire away. I shall lie delighted to listen to you." Accordingly the life assurance man delivered a lecture of nearly half nn hour's duration on the advantages of life assurance, setting forth all ths rea sons why his listener should insure hi life Immediately for a large amount. When he was done the other man said: "Well, that's not bad, but nothing new." "Nothing new?" asked the life assur nneo man. "What do you mean?" "uh, well," said the other, "you see, I'm fl life assurance agent myself, and I wanted to see If you had any new Ideas to give me." A good way to teach a child to 'be have Is to behave yourself.
