One of Ihe jiroposed legislative
measures resulting from the. recant
fire in Washington which destroyed
many priceless records 'is a hill intro
duced by Senator Smool, of Utuli, ,
Which, if passed, will make it unlaw

ernment. It will lie interesting to e
what, fate awaits the measure.'
If the. act were passed and enforc
ed strictly, it would prohibit the pres
ident or any of his guests from smok

forbid the members of Congress to

A man from (iosport culled" on
Squire Ilurtsock yesterday and asked
him what he would charge to perform
n marriage ceremony. "The squire
told him $1, and the mad said that
he could get the match solemnized
over at Quincy for fifty cents (50ci
and get a .prayer thrown In.

'We heard a I.n Grnndo niinlstor say
tho other day that if you put n barb
ed wire fence on each side of it you
couldn't keep some .men in' the-
straight nnd nnrrow path.
A CONFRSSION BY l!S,
OURSELVES.
In the first place, Mrs, Colyum had
ortu known better than to nsk me to
match that putticldcr shade of baby
ribbon.
"H ain't enough," I told her when
I nrrove home n few evenings no
with the .wrong kind. "It ain't
enough, Mrs. Colyum, that I shctild
toil six days a week as the Sanctum
to earn a livelihood "
"Whaswal?" Mrs.' CalyunV t)r6le' In.
"What kind of a 'hood did you say?"
"Livelihood, I repeater, wondering
if 1 had used the wrong word. Hul
the Little Colyum was sitting in the.
middle of the' floor on the dictionary,
I'liting her supper, we having sent her
high- chair to bo fixed, where Mrs.
Colyum hud pushed the bottom -nut of
it -fixing up her window shades. So
I let It go at that.
"How d'ye spell it?" Mrs.- Colynni
went on, and I could feel myself get
ting hot under the foliar.,
"It don't make no difference ho-.v
y' spell it," I Veplied back, "I eniyi il.
an' that orta he enough."
"Do you call the W.Rii you bi-unir
home lusit Sattidy n livelihood ?". she
kep. -on.
"Well, I'ni willin' t' admit," said I,
"that I don't get what I'm worth ati
the Sanctum, hut
"No, Junius," Mrs. Colyum said,
nuiet-like, "if yon work us hard .it
.lh Sanctum as you do ground home,
you certainly oNiri'l' get what you're
worth. If y' did, we'd all three he
out t' the pore farm now."
