Amuiad Admiral Farragut.
Admiral Farragut had a keen
sense of humor, and on one voyage
it. It
pr
we had a chance to prove
was a ridiculous incide
incident, but
was a test of the admiral’s good
nature, and it happened at sea on
Thanksgiving day. The steward
had spent some time and expense in
paring a big turkey that had
n roasted to a turn, and he took
it from the oven that it might not
be overdone while he assisted in tbs
table decorations. The galley
steaming with the odors of turkey,
plum pudding and other delectable
viands, and the trusting steward
raised the galley hatch to let the
steam escape. He might have been
more suspicious if he had seen the
maintop men sniffing the galley
fnmee. They dropped a line while
an accomplice below gave two half
hitches aroqpd the big bird, and
away it went upward and aloft to
the main top.
When the steward came back he
found nothing but a little gravy left
in the pan. The turkey was missing,
and it now became his painful duty
to notify the captain. He awk­
wardly apologized for the missing
bird, but was not prepared for the
fury of tbe captain.
“ Who stole that turkey?” ex­
claimed Captain Pennock. The
welkin rang with his maledictions,
and he offered a reward for any in­
formation about tbe theft, but no
one aboard would be mean enough to
tell on the maintop men, and the
admiral, I believe, enjoyed the joke
as much as the men themselv
With Captain Pennock it was a dif­
ferent story, and wherever he
walked he was entertained with
cries and loud whispers, “ Who stole
that turkey?” The boom covers
made a good cabinet for those mys­
terious voices, “ Who stole that
turkey?” A ll points of the com­
pute disturbed him. Muffled tones
from behind the guns were echoed
more loudly in the rigging, “ Who
stole that turkey?” These saluta­
tions kept the captain turning from
one point to another; then the
boom covers would roll out again
the trying question, “ Who stole that
turkey?"
Pennock, at last exasperated be­
yond endurance, doubled up his fist,
and, indicating with a sweep o f the
horizon any or all offenders, he
shouted: “ Oh, you young rascals,
you! I 'll soon know who stole that
turkey, and I ’ll stop all shore lib­
erty until I do find the thief.”
I happened to be standing within
view o f the admiral when his voice
carried to the bridge, and I never
heard the admiral laugh so heartily
as he did then, when he thought he
was unobserved. H e enjoyed Pen-
nock's discomfiture as much as the
sailors, but was too good natured
to let Pennock discover it. With
the captain it was a serious thing,
but he never did find the culprit.—

A certain young woman has a
little sister who is much inclined
to ask numerous questions, and,
though she is sometimes a little
slow shout understanding things in
general, she is as quick to see a
point as most little girls of six. The
other day little sister asked big
sister the direction to the home of
a new acquaintance.
Big sister
tried her best to make the way
plain to no avail and finally, becom­
ing exasperated, exclaimed:
Oh, follow your nose, Nan, and
you will finally find the place.”
"W ell, if you ever follow vour
nose,” came the qnick retort, “ you
will go up and up and up and be
an angel by and by, which you’re
not now ”
Which reference to a nose in­
clined to be png ended the contro­
versy.

“T n in g to trace a cold is not
easy,’' said a health expert. “Many
if not moat of them are credited to
drafts. It is very unfortunate
that these cool currents of air, es­
pecially if the air is fresh, are so
generally and persistently maligned.
When grandma or father sneezes
mother looks at once for some open
door or window and it ia promptly
cloaad. If John or Mary has the
snivels in the morning nothing
seems clearer than that they slept
an open window. On the next
night the windows are kept dosed
and the
tl good, pure air ia kept out­
side for the birds and the squirrels.
*1 say it Is too bad that air in
motion has achieved such a bad rep­
utation. A cold ia a disease, and
only follows an infection, and the
infection can only come through the
or mouth. There is no ques­
tion about this. All doctors agree
on it, and it seems, at least to
in the profession, reasonable
and. simple. Your bands gather
all tbe t * r •*„ because djseaae
are ae common as weeds,
t your hand up to your nose
or mouth many times a day— it is a
habit—and a bad one. The germs
lodge in these entrances and at an
opportune time are taken into the
system. When a cold develops as
a result you wonder in what way
you have been indiscreet, and at
ones try to recall some draft or sod­
den cooling off.
“The best remedy for a cold is
to taka lots of fresh air— good, pure
food and enough exercise. The
best way to prevent a cold is to wash
your hands often and never to pat
your fingers either in your nose or
mouth. Remember that a cool or
hot or any current of fresh air
blowing on yoor back at night or in
the daytime can never infect jour
system and produce a cold. Colds
come from a germ.”— New York

A hansom cab while going through
a narrow London street was stopped
by a line of carriages on one aide
and by a stationary cart filled with
flowering plants on the other.
“Cabby" civilly requested the
driver of the cart to move on and
let him pass, but was answered with
a defiant grunt and sneer, where­

the cart and than slackened the
