WHERE CHARITY AVAS WASTED.
Tha Young Woman Found Appear
anros Count for Naught.
A young woman who has been do
ing missionary work on the East
Side of New York City had an expe
rience that came near ending her
charltnble efforts. On one windy
cold day she met In the street three
Italian children, two girls and a boy.
who were barefooted. She stopped
them and they told her that their
parents couldn't . buy them shoes,
they were so poor.
The charitably Inclined young
woman first fitted them wit with
stockings and then bought them
three pairs of shoes. The children
started for home looking very hnp
py. The next dny she met one of
the girls on the street.
"Won't you come and visit us?"
asked the girl.
"I'd be pleased to," said the mis
sionary, who felt that what she had
done was appreciated. "Where do
you live?"
"Oh, you'll have to go out to En
glewood, N. J., said the little girl.
"We're going to move to-morrow.

It Xever Hove Him.
Mlcah Jarrett was a Bhrewd horse
trader to the day of his death. He
was sllehtlv deaf, and used his deaf
ness In his business to no small de
gree.
One day he sold an old horse to a
neighboring farmer, who thought he
haS found a great bargain. He
changed his mind, however, when.
after driving his new purchase a few
miles, the beast emitted a series of
explosions strongly resembling the
exhaust of a locomotive.
Straightway he drove to "Gampy,"
who was sharpening a knife In hla
dooryard, his son Abner turning the
grindstone. The disgruntled pur
chaser began a long tirade, which
was perfectly audible to the old man.
who, however, simulated great deaf
ness and finally remarked. "Hey?"
"You're a skin!" howled his
neighbor.
"Hey?"
"I say you're a skin. This hoss
got the heaves!"
"Hey?"
ne b goi me neaves: Heaves, i
heaves, heaves!" I
The old man looked at him calmly,
then, Indicating his son, he said gen
tly, "Never hove me. Hove Abner
once."
Was a Born Financier.
Bobby's father had given him a
ten cent piece and a quarter of a
dollar, telling him he might put one
or the other on the contribution
plate, says the Boston Post.
"Which did you give, Bobby?" his
father asked when the boy came
home from church.
"Well, father, I thought at first I
ought to put In the quarter," said
Bobby, "but then Just In time I re
membered 'The Lord loveth a cheer
ful giver,' and I knew I could give
the ten cent piece a great deal more
eheerfully, so I put that In."
Knew Him Well.
"When you go to New Zealand, I
wish you would Inquire after my
great-grandfather, Jeremiah Thomp
son." "Certainly," said the traveller,
and wherever he went lie asked for
news of the ancestor, but without
avail.
One day he was Introduced to a
fine old Maori of advanced age.
"Did you ever meet with nn Eng
lishman named Jeremiah Thomp
son?" he asked.
A smile passed over the Maori's
face. "Meet him?" he repeated.
"Why, I ate him!"
Guessing at It.
"To-morrow'B Mr. Lovvett's birth
day," said Hobble.
"Yes," said Hlsle, "and Bister
Edith savs she sent him a pair of
military hair brushes. Say, what are
they, anyway?"
"Give It up," replied Bobble. "I
don't even know what 'military hair
Is. Somethln' fierce and red, I
guess." Philadelphia Press.

Fo Terrier's Pnlnta.
The fox terrier is the most Intelligent
of all the smaller breeds, nnd there Is
hardly a trick that he cannot learn In
a very few lessons. He is usually
healthy, makes the best kind of n
watch dog, and his ability to catcb nnd
kill rats and other vermlu is another
story. In symmetry, size nnd character
the dog must present a generally gay,
lively and active nppenrance. TheT
rler, like the foxhound, must on no ac
count be "leggy," nor must he be too
short In the leg. He should stand like
a cleverly made hunter, covering a lot
of ground, yet with a short back, ns
before stated. He will then attain the
highest degree of propelling power, to
gether with the greatest length of
stride that Is compatible with the
length nf Ills body. Weight Is not a cer
talu criterion of a terrier's fitness for
his work general shnpe, size and con
tour are the main points, and If a dog
can gallop and stay and follow bis fox
up a drain it matters little what his
weight Is to n pound or so, thouglv
roughly speaking. It may be said that
he should not scale over twenty pounds.

Foxy Tenant.
At one time there lived In Wor
cester, Mass., nn old negro, who hnd
a tremendous Influence, religious and
political, in the settlement where he
lived. He occupied n little house
owned by n prominent banker, but had
successfully evaded the payment of
rent for niiiiiy years. No trouble
came, however, until the bnnker was
nominated to run for n political ofnYe.
The next day the old negro came hob
bling Into his office.
"Well, Sam." said the banker, "I
suppose you've come In to pay me
some rent."
"Oh. no, boss," replied the old man
"I'se just come in to s-iy I's glad yo Is
nominated, and will tell de res' of dese
no 'count nlgsiors to vote fo' yo, and
to mention to yo at de same time dat
