In politics the plurality Is the great est of more than two numbers and is also the excess of the highest number of votes cast for any one candidate over the next highest number. When a candidate receives out of 10,000 rotes cast 4.000 and two other candidates receive respectively 8,600 and 2,500, the first Is elected by a plurality, though he bas received less than a majority of the tfhole vote, and be is said to have a plurality of SO0 totes. If the numbers are 6,000, 3,000 and 1.000, the majority is 2,000 and the plurality is 3.000. A majority, there fore, must be more than half the en tire vote cast, and a candidate's ma jority la, then, the difference between the number of votes be received and the combined number of votes cast for all other candidates; bis plurality is the difference between his own num ber and the number received by the candidate nearest to him. Oftentimes a candidate receives a plurality, but not a majority. Unless there is a tie there is always a plurality. rath-finder. Why Sailors Don't Swim. "Yon think It's strange, do you." said the sailor, "that us shellbacks can hardly ever swim?" "Strange and almost criminal," re plied the druggist firmly. "Sailors who can't swim I don't understand it at all." Tte sailor frowned. ' "Supposln'," he said, "on a cold, black night you found yourself in the sea, not a spar left of the wreck, every shipmate drowned, nothln' any where but the cold, the blackness, the bitter water. In them conditions." be said, "what would you ruther do swim and swim and swim In agony till you died or sink right down and die at wunst?" . "I think I'd rather die at once." said the druggist shuddering. "So sailors think." said the other, "and It's to spare themselves possible long hours of agony that they like not to learn to swim. And they encourage their sons not to learn, too. If there's any likelihood of the lads follerin' the sea." New Orleans Times-Democrat. The Moral of Playing Cards. Tlaylng cards have had their moral side. It may surprise you to know. At the Blenheim club In London, lecturing on the subject of playing cards from the point of view of the collector, Mr. Alfred Whitman said that the most valuable packs were' those that taught Biblical history er Inculcated moral lessons. In Italy in the eighteenth cen tury it was customary to Issue packs of cards with Old Testament scenes engraved upon them. In Germany of the. same period playing cards with fables to which morals were attached were customary. French playing cards of the time of Louis XIV. were used to teach geography and history, while in the England of Elizabeth and the Stu arts playing cards were used as po lltlcal pamphlets. Most valuable were cards Issued In France at the time of the French revolution, when figures of Genius, Liberty and Equality took the place of kings, queens and knaves. London Saturday Review. He Has Two Signatures. There is one New York business man who is reasonably proof against the forger, as he has two signatures and the forger must first get hold of one of his bank checks to get any action. Seeing the signature on a letter or ho tel register would do the forger no good. The bank would not recognize It "I don't particularly fear the forger," the business man admitted, "but my two signatures make me feel safer Just the same. I am surprised that everybody doesn't hit on the same plan. It's very easy after you get the knack of signing your name two sep arate and distinct ways." New York Globe. Hard to Do Without Pockets. "The most annoying thing In navy life for a recruit Is the absence of side pockets in the uniform trousers," said a yeoman at the navy recruiting sta tion. "The average man doesn't realize how strong Is the custom of thrusting bis hands in his trousers pockets until he dons a pair without pockets. I've worn the navy uniform four years now, nnd I frequently fiud myself try ing to put my bauds In my pockets." Kansas City Times. The Points Were There. Little Clara's parents often discuss reincarnation,, and the small maiden has acquired some of the phraseology. "Mamma,." she said one day, "my kit tle must have been a paper of pins In a- previous state of existence." "Why do yon think so?" asked her mother. "Because I can feel some of them In her toes yet" was the logical reply. An Iron Tip. Teacher Johnny, can you tell me how iron was first discovered? Johnny Yes, sir.

Senator LaFollette Is Incensed at the Interpretations placed on the sen ate rules by Vice President Fairbanks. The Wisconsin senator says he will go before the country with the story.
