"Voti Il.vc no idea of the an novauccs wo have to suffer from V I the traveling public, and espco i.i'.ly from the travel ing sales-! men. Let me give you an in stance of it." Tims spoke a tall, full-lcmled conductor, whose heart I had won by the oiTt of a two-for-live-cent Flora de Cabanas. 'As inv train stopped cue I SJ day between Eidtkuhueii and Toscu two traveling salesmen entered a second-class cormpart , in nt. They st opposite each other and one of the two placed 11 pretty heavy trunk upon the seat ne.t to him. 4 'Look here,' says I 'you'll have to take that trunk oil"' the seat.' " 'No,' says he, 'I will not take it down.' 'Well,' says I, 'we will see. "Will you take that trunk down, yes or no?' " Ila!' laughed he, 'you are jesting my good man.' " 'None of your familiarity,5 snvs I, ano-rily. 'I shall inform the baggage master. ''As at this very moment the ! train bean to move I had to J defer informing against the of- fender until the next station. ! As soon as it was reached I rushed into the compartment full of rare and asked: 'Now, will you take that trunk ilownT ""j Mease do not bonier me with that trunk, or I shall com plain of you at head quarters!" roared the passenger in a voice of thunder. I never met with such impudence before, but as the train stopped for a couple of minutes omy 1 had again to wait till the coming station. There 1 informed the station master of the case. He entered the compartment, saying: "'Sir. the conductor is in the right, and I have to demand of you to remove the trunk or leave the train.' " '1 shall neither take it down nor leave the train,' answered f!;e passenger, and as we were already five minutes late I had just I fine to wire the masttr to the next station. ''1 enjoyed in advance the scene at at the next stttion. Up on our arrival the chief at that b-talion said to the passenge: "'T have to ask you to leave this train at once." " 'Sir,' rejoined the now thor oughly infuriated passenger, what do you want of iiif! I have paid for my ticket, and have done nothing reprehensi ble whatever, and yet this mis erable hireling has not ceased to bother and insult me.' Owing to this quarrel the train was now ten midates late. I shall do that under no circumstance whatever.' scream ed the passenger, whose frontal veins stood out like whip-cord from his dark forehead. "At this junctio.i the head bao-i'n"! mastor entered the car land, trying to conciliate tiie i wair!u:'r tlendits, t-aid in a -Hut why did you not take the trunk oif the scat? Don't X i you s-ees tliat owing to youi j Mubbornness the train is now ! ten minutes late?' i "Hut why on earth should I : take this trunk down? There's j no power that can compel me !' j "All three of the raiiro.d olii- eiuls now apiuoached the im-- ceiifror to eieel him. v.h- n tlr; other passenger, who had been an amused eye-witness So the. quarrel, sail quietly: "Hut why should he, indeed, be com pelled to take it down? It is my trunk and not his.,? "Tableau Boston Courier. The more you practice what you know, the more you shall know what to ractice. THE WISDOM OF THE MULE. He Knows When it is Noon and He Knows When it is Sunday. S ntifiu Aracrkr.n. Working adimals, .such as lior ses and mules, are generally kept o a cotton plantation in a large opjn pen. ' In the center there is a feed shed, containing a trough for corn and a rafter for fodder overhead. Stock is fed only twice a day noon and night. By sun-up on workdays the plow hands appear, each to catch his "critter," and the forty or fifty mutes at their sight move in utter confusion around the shed, hiding behind one another. lint how is it on Sundavs? There I reigns then an Arcadian peace in the pen. Each mule is paired oil with his 'chum," (a selective affinity no doubt) in an angle of the rail fence, head and tail to gether. The object is a practical exemplification of the golden rule. To enjey an untroubled siesta, each head secures immu nity from the Uy pest by a close proximity to his friend's "perpet uum mobile." Farm hands may go in and out without producing the least sign of alarm. But. should bridles appear, that dis turbs only masters saddle or sad dle or carriage horses. As to the mules, no extra twitch in the tail or ear shows the least suspi cion that their owner could possi bly be the victim of a mistake. With eyes dropping and head on a level with that of his neighbor's tail, his somnolent torpor is a picture of trust ami safety. lie knows it 13 Sunday. I remem ber well the amused look of my foreman. Essex, when ashing him for his opinion on the sub ject: "Why. in course,.' said he, "uey kr.u.vs it's Sunday." 1'ertinent to the above query is the other: l)u animals know noontime? For the sake of a lively scene let us some forenoon uo isito a la rue i'..ld. Presently we are startled from our reverie by unearthly "Ee-hung, ee-hung, ce-ce-huug, hung, .hung." It is the Xestor of the four-foolers that calls thus: 'Time for refresh m.'nts" a signal similarly sec onded and approved in sucewsvion by forty others. We look at our timepiece, and, sure enough, the large hand is about covering the smaller. It is noon. The mule, however, i some minutes ahead of time, and re ensues a fear ful ( oiiUi't. for t lie mastery I e tween bin: and the driver, which the distant diuncr.horn only end;. Now. how is it the mule knows nocnt-time? Docs he rely on the infallibility of his timepiece, that warns hini that it needs winding? Or has he noticed his equally hungry partner. Samlo, who, when reaching the end of a row. halts a moment. - and, turning face northward, anxiuuslv scans the shadow at his feet? Or is the sensitiveness of his lack So delicate that he can discriminate U'twcen oblique and vertical rays? We are prone to mystify, and. bt cause are unniHing to grant brute creation tiie power of rea soning, we call their actions that surprise us "mstin-t." In the bar'nvard. stable and. field we never observe this quality of in stinct in the young, it is only the old that become wide by ex perience.

"Fergy, dear," began his wife when he came home io dinner, the other evening, "Christmas will sooti be here. "Remarkable !" ejaculated Ferguson. ,'i)o you know what 1 want?" she continued without heeding the scornful remark. "The earth with a shawl strap to carry it, probably." "S'o, Fergy, all 1 want is Que of those beautiful litte watch es. "A watch! What in thunder do you want a watch for?" "So that I won't become an gry with you, Fergy," said Mrs. Montgomery as she wound her arm tenderly about his neck. "Every night for a week 1'vo heard the clock strike two be fore yon came home. I know the clock can't be right, and I want the gong removed. If I have a watch wc won't need the gon," Mr. Montgomery did not wait for Christmas." He bought the watch next day. Minneap olis Journal. An awkward young country man leaned over the counter at the county clerks office yester day and in a stammering man ner answered the questions nec essary to procure a marriage li cense. Evidently this was his first investment in the matrimo nial market. "When queries re garding the prospective bride were reached his embarrassment became more painful. Her name aud ajn were given after some hesitation. "White or black?" asked the clerk writing the word "white" without -waituig fqrthQ anyor,, "Black;" was the unexpected reply, after a momentary pause. "Then you cannot have a li cense," said the clcVk, dropping his pen. -Why not?" "Deeriuse it is agninst the law for. a while person to marry one of the colored race" "( ih, she's liot colored," an swered the swain, us a new light dawned on his bofudclled mind, "I mean that she is dark complexioned."
