Aunt Dinah, plantation born and
reared, went to a nearby town to ""hire
out" She was very promptly hired
by a young housewife, who, seeing her
lack of familiarity with modern house
holds, started to train fier.
She showed Aunt Dinah her small
silver-service bell there were no elec
tric bells In the old-fnHhloned house
and told her that when It was rung
she must como luto the dining room.
Aunt Dlnnh said she understood. A
few days luter the mistress was seated
on tho broad veranda with a friend
when she henrd a tremendous clangor
from the direction of the kitchen. It
came nearer swiftly and soon Identi
fied itself as the sound of a large neu.
Puzzled, the housewife entered the
hall and there Btood Aunt Dinan,
swinging a largo dinner bell vigorous
ly, "Why, what on earth is the mat
ter, Aunt DlnuhT' she ganped. "Why
are you ringing that bell?"
"Well. Miss Mary. I thought dat was
the way folks called each other In dls
here house. Didn't you snow me yo
bell the other day? I found dls one
In de cupboard and I wanted you ngui
quick In de kitchen, so I rung hit"

At a home In North Delaware street
the man of the house gathered two or
more bushels of nuts last fall ond put
them in the attic His wife spends
most of her time at the office with
him, so the house Is empty every day.
However, recently the wife remained
home one day nnd heard a terrific
noise In the attic. Investigating she
found two squirrels rushing around
,ke mad, trying to get out a closed
window. They had gnaw .....

NEEDED A THOROUGH SOUSING
Evil Spirit of Hackman Could Not Be

gent Methods.
Doctor P.rown, a negro evangelist,
was a firm believer In the ancient cus
tom of river baptism, and converts
whom he baptized in this manner sel
dom forgot It. A few years ago he
held n christening In a New Jersey
town on the hanks of the Delaware
river, where a dozen or more converts
worn assembled, awaiting their turris
to ho Immersed. Atnone them was a
hackmnn, who evinced a lively inter
est In the ceremony.
"Why does the good doctor," he
asked of a fellow convert, "duck some
of them folks two times an. other
more?"
"He ducks 'em once," explained hta
friend, "for every new name they're
goln' to have."
"Is that possible?" the hackman re
plied. "I was goln' to call myself
Thomas Jefferson Lincoln Anderson,
but I guess Torn' will be "bout long
nuff."
This conversation was overheard by
the sharp ears of Doctor Brown,evho
Anally beckoned the hackman to come
forward.
"Yo name, please?" he Inquired In
a deep bass voice.
"Jess baptize me Tom,' that's 'nult,"
the candidate replied, as the evangel
ist, tnkinir him none too irently by the
neck, piloted him far out into the
stream, where he ducked him not once
hut hnlf n dozen times with such ra
pidity and vigor that a few minutes
later the hackman found himself on
the shore, coughing, sputtering and
fighting for breath. The ceremony was
soon over, and when he had recovered
his strength he made his way to the
side of Doctor Brown.
"What fo you duck me that way?"
hi ilnmnniVd In aecrleved tones. "I
come here to be baptized, not to be
drowned."
"My good man," replied Doctor
Brown, "you was so filled with the
devil I had to use a powerful lot ot
water to wash him out of yo' system."
Never before have we had such a re
sponse as during these Prosperity Days.

SCUTARI HAS LONG HISTORY
Known as "Geneva of the Balkans" It
Is One of the Oldest Cities
In Europe.
Scutari, principal city of Albania,
scenlcnlly suggests Geneva, nestling
between the limpid waters of Lake
Scutari and the mountains of north

greater part of the year, rising to
form an Alp-llke background. Instead

sharp-pointed prow and stern rising

propel It by short, quick
thPlr strokes by a wiici
