"Nevertheless It does seem Btrnnge thitt while everytlilnp; else In the world Iihh been ndViuicliiK, proKtesslnjj nnd InipiovliiK this old horse-power saw mill htiH remained stationary, absolute ly untouched by u slugle change that would bettor It." "If you Rentlelnen will excuso mo for cutting Into your conversation Instead of contlnuliiK to cut wood for a mlnujo I will cullKhten you n little nbout this business, which a cuius to trouble you so much." wild the man who had bcu busily cnRtiKed In pushing BthAa HKnlnst tho buzz saw. "Tho point lis right, here," continued tho mnn with tho saw, "you gentlemen are llylug jn little too fnr above the ground. In otlnfr words, you tlon't know what you arc talking about. You are complaining that a machine has not Improved when, its n mutter of tnct, It reached a state of perfection when both of" you wero children.

"I supposo you think thnt tho dawn of the twentieth century should have found these machines run by electric ity.

There you nre that Is the whole proposition In a nut shell.

Chicago Chronicle. World's largest Prison. I France's new prison at Fresnes, some I eight miles from l'arls, is tho largest In tho world. It takes the place of j three old prisons, s situated In a I healthy district nnd covers, with Us mnln buildings, tlower gardens and villa residence of ottlchUs, over half a siiuurc mile. The prison, unlike our penitentiaries, Is not built ou tho star plan, but con sists of tlvo rectangular blocks, ope of which Is the lutlrmary. The plan la the cellular nnd tho number of cells' renches the uugo total of 1,824. As, however, accommodation Is provided on the "association" system for 400 privileged prisoners, the total criminal capacity of the Fresnes prison la 2.SM.' lense. In some of the workshops this rule does not obtain. The reason for this apparent Inconsistency Is not clear. IlCHiiitl Cowotl tho Cnb Driver. Sir Wulter Besunt Is known In Eng land ns ond of the best amateur boxers in me lami. lie tins more than once given proor or the possession of both science nnd muscle, nnd although he Is by no means quarrelsome his friends discreetly avoid giving him ofTcnse. He Is credited with having once settled n disputed cab fare In n novel manner. Ho drove from Piccadilly to some place In the suburbs outside the radius. On getting down he tendered tho driver 3 shillings nnd (I pence, which was a lit tle ovor the proper fare. The man, however, wanted C shillings. Itcsant refused. , "I'd like to light you for It," said tho driver. "The very thing," snld Besant. "We'll have the light lu the buck garden. My brother will look on, hold the stakes and see fair." The cabman got down slowly, ns If he did not finite enre about It after all. He followed Into the garden, where there was a lovely bit of green turf. Besunt placed the f shillings In his friend's hands, took off his eont nnd waistcoat and rolled up his sleeves all with the air of cheerful alacrity. "Now, my friend." said he. "I nm rendy ns soon ns you nre." Ills nnxlety was grent, but It decreased ns ho watched the cabman's face express successively all the emotions of bounce, surprise, doubt, hesitation and abject cowardice. "No, no," he said at last. "Glmmo the three-nnd-slx. I know your tricks both of you. I've been done this wny before." Puzzles for tliu l'ostinan. The other day a fair Baltlmorenn gave a man relative two postal cards to mull.

Tho masculine relative didn't mall tho enrds; he took them buck to tho writer lustanter. "See here," ho said, "you can't ex pect thlugs directed In this careless fashion to reach their destination.
