CAUUHT' BY A ICU3AK.:
How It Put the Faetilr Queer
Plight Before tSie iilnlatcr.
MiissMacgillicutldje's new kodak came
home from dowr.-town late Saturday
nigtit. .If there had been light enough
she wou!d nave 'done a lof of snap
shooting' before she went to bed, but
as kodaks don't work after dark she
was obliged to wait til! morning'.
As soon as breakfast was over she
picked up her new toy and made pic
tures ot the dog and the cat until her
mother protested so vigorously against
Eiiuh oaip'oyment on Sunday morning'
that she had to desist. When the old
folks' had pone to church, however.
Miss Maegillienddie remaining at home
because of a slight indisposition, the
kodak was trotted out again. The
young lady bad tried, though, of pho
tographing such commonplace sub
jects as the dog and the cat, so she sent,
to fhe house of a couple of friends and
asked them to come over and pose for
her. They came and were photor
graphed in numerous poses, but "the
young artist wanted something live
ly and characteristic.
"You girls are always playing cards,"
she said; "why shouldn't I photograph
yon in the midst of a game. You'll
have to sit still only three or four min
utes, 'and you can easily do tiiat."
The other girls acquiesced, and the
cards and a set of poker chips were
spread out on a lapboard between
them. After the necessary posing and
squinting to get everything in proper
focus, the cap was removed from the
kodak. ,
Unfortunately Miss Macgillicuddie
had taken no account of time during
their morning's experiments, and the
expose was not more than a minute old
when the front door opened and in
walked her father and mother, accom
panied by the new minister, whom they
had brought to Sunday dinner. The
first thing they saw, of course, on en
tering the house, was'the poker game
between the two young women, and
the minister, discreetly looking away
as soon as possible, failed to discover
the kodak. Mrs. Macgillicuddie was
embarrassed beyond expression by the
sight and hurried away to her room,
where she shed bitter tears. Mr. Mac
gillicuddie, however, tried to make ex
planation, but only succeeded in mak
ing matters worse.
"Not really a card game, I assure
you, Mr. Fourthly," he stammered in
an embarrassed fashion. "Girls only
practicing with their new kodak."
The rattling of the cards and chips
as the girls tried to scramble them out
of sight, seemed to disprove this state
ment, however, and Mr. Fourthly put
an end to it by saying, coldly:
"Least said about that is' surest
mended, lam sure, Mr. Macgillicuddie."
He left the house as soon after din
ner as he decently could without any
one having the courage to make good
the explanation. Chicago Times-Herald.

A TOOTH OF GOLD.
The Truthful Naaratlon of a. Dentist
Who Knew Ilia Business.
The man in the chair of torture was
remonstrating with the doctor of den
tal surgery.
"That's all right," said the dentist,
"but you are foolish not to let me build
that tooth up with gold for you."
"What's the use? It will cost me $40,
you say, and I cannot afford to eat my
five-dollar-a-week board bill with a $40
tooth. It is too much dead capital."
"Is it?" smiled the dentist. "Listen
to a story. About ten years ago I was
trying to make a living in the west in
partnership with a fellow who wasn't
any . luckier than I was. We worked
around to the north where the winters
are as bad as they are in the Klondike,
and our funds kept getting' lower and
lower until starvation sat dowm to table
with us. The weather was getting
colder, too, and the last wagon train
out was booked for the following Sun
day, then two days away. It was our
last chance, for to remain there for the
four months till the trail was open meant
death sure. The price to go with the
train was $25 each. Just .what $25
amounts to you will never know until
you need it as badly as we did.
"We hadn't a cant on earth and noth
ing to put up to get one with. It was
indeed a cold day for both of us. By
Saturday noon we had given up all hope
of getting out, and we had retired to
our shanty to drowin our sorrow in a
quart of whisky we had discovered, no
matter how. As we sat gazing in stu
pid despair at each. other with the full
bottle between us, my partner grinned
a .ghastly grin and the gleam of the gold
in his filled teeth caught my eye. I con
cealed my feelings quietly and asked
him how many teeth he had filled. He
told me there were six, and one of them
was nearly a solid gold tooth and had
cost him $50. In a minute I had com
municated my ideas to him, and in an
other minute I had my tools, for I bad
been studying dentistry then, at work
in his mouth, digging a way like a miner.
It was a rich field, and in half an hour I
had out every bit of gold in those teeth
of his and had beaten it up into a wad
that we took to the owner of a saloon
who knew what raw gold was worth.
He looked it over and offered $60 for the
wad.
"My partner kept his mouth shut and
eo did I, and when the train moved out
with its wagons next day we had our
place in the 'front row and fire dollars
apiece spending money. Six months
Inter we struck luck and I filled my part
ner's teeth and never charged him a
cent." . ."
"Go on with mine," said the man in
the chair, "and charge me the same."

Enartnecr of a F"at Trsia, Receives
' ' Fright Which He Can't Forget.
"The nervous .strain on the engineer
of a fast train is something enormous,"
said one of them the other day, reports
the Detroit Free Press. "Xot only the
lives of the passengers are at stake,
but there is the constant fear of iun
ning over someone on the track. ' An
accident, no -matter how innocent the
engineer, is always a kind of hoodoo.
What was my first-accident? I shall
never forget it. If it had been traced
on my mind with a streak of lightning
it couldn't have made a more lasting
impression.
"It happened one bright moonlight
night in November. We were spinning
over the rails at full speed across the
country where there were few people
passing at that time of night, when I
looked out and saw the figure of a man
lying across the track not ten feet in
front of the engine. I stopped quick as
possible, but too late, of course. We
had run over him, and the lifeless body
was under the wheels. We got out to
look for him, and found his hat, a piece
of his coat sleeve and one of his shoes,
but the rest seemed to be further back
under the train. I backed up the en
gine and got out to look again. There
lay the body,- I nearly fainted when I
saw its distorted form. I felt like a
murderer. Did I know the man? No,
not personally'. He was a scarecrow
from a neighboring corn field."
THE ORIGINAL HANDY MAN.
He Lives In California and Is a Jack
of All Trades.
In one of Frank It. Stockton's amus
ing stories there is a character of a jack-of-all-trades
and general-utility man,
who is good at everything. He can do
anything, from building a house to a
hencoop, and is just as handy in most
other lines as in that of carpenter.
Mr. Stockton might have got the ma
terial for this 'character from a man
who lives in National City, Cal., says the
Philadelphia Times. He is willing to do
anything from nursing a sick person to
building a church. There is no sort of
work in which he will not engage if
paid for jt, and he is versatile'enough to
make himself useful in pretty nearly
anything he undertakes.
That he is- slever, not only with his
hands, but with his pen, is proved by
the following advertisement, which he
inserted in a. newspaper in his town :
THE ORIGINAL,
HANDY MAN!
Still lives and loves to labor.
Makes Door and Window Screens, Files
Saws, Sharpens Cutlery and Pits Keys.
Repairs and Polishes Furniture, Makes
X Store Fixtures and Does Gen- .
erel Jobbing. .
He is at home in the sick room to offer
consolation to those who mourn, and pa
tiently nurses by day or night the sick in
body. Gcd bless the Handy man and keep
him safe.
He may be found at his old knoll on Street
8, near Avenue 2.

Schoolhouse work. . ' . :
MARK TWAIN'S STUTTER,
'Joseph Hatton Discusses His Pleas
ant Impediment.
Joseph Hatton, in his "Cigarette Pa
pers," thus breezily writes of America's
humorist:
"Do you recall what a pleasant, tan-,
talizing- stutter Mark Twain has? It is
really not a stutter, nor a stammer, but
just a -drawl and a hesitation. Charles
Lamb's was a real stutter. Lord Dun
dreary's was a good imitation. .
"The most captivating impediment'
was that of Mr. Travers, of New York.
'Why, Mr. Travers,' said a lady, 'you
stammer more in New York than you
did in Baltimore.' 'B b bigger place,'
stammered Travers. 'A chestnut!' you
say? Well, what of it? There are
chestnuts and chestnuts. If you have
heard Mark Twain lecture you know
with what effect' he uses his little pe
culiarity of speech. The point that
broke the general titter into a hearty
laugh when first he appeared in town
was concerning that very cold moun
tain in Fiji, where, he said, 'it is so cold
up there that people can't f-peak the
truth.' ' When the audience had done
smiling, he added: 'I know because I
have been there.' The wit of a story
should be in the tail; American humor
has often the peculiar artfulness of a
double-hinged tail; and you get two
laugh instead of one."
