It is all part of our tendency to be kind and, considerate to lawbreakers; to think of the family of the man who has killed somebody Instead of consid ering the family of his victim; to lay Btress on the devotion of the relatives of the man who has looted a bank, rather than to take into account the broken depositors and their sharp suf ferings. Hence the general approval of the fantastic extension of the par doning power, which meets with no real, sane disapproval. New York Evening Sun. Will Inherit at Sixty-Five. The will of Mrs. Mary Olmstead of Brooklyn, filed in the surrogate's office in Kings county recently, makes a provision that none of the legatees are to receive their share of the es tate until they reach the age of sixty five years, except in the case of the two grandchildren, who will receive their share when they become thirty- five years of age.

They Burled Bill When It Was Other Twin Who Drowned, Said Mark Twain. Once upon a time Mark Twain was interviewed. After various questions the interviewer came to the question of relatives, and from then on, accord ing to Twain's own version of things, the conversation ran thus: "Who is this picture on the wall? Isn't that a brother of yours?" "Oh, yes, yes! Now that you remind me of it, that was a brother of mine. That's William, Bill we called him. Poor old Bill!" "Why, is he dead, then?" "Ah, well, I suppose so. We never could tell. There was a great mystery about it." "That was very, very sad. He disap peared, then?" "Well, yes, in a general sort of way. We buried him." "Buried him! Buried him without knowing whether he was dead or not?" "Oh, no! Not that. He was dead enough." "Well, I confess that I can't under stand this. If you buried him and you knew he was dead " "No, no! We only thought he waa, "Oh, I see, he came to life again." "I bet he didn't." "Well, I never heard anything like this. Somebody was dead. Somebody was buried. Now, where was the mys tery?" "That's Just it. That's it exactly! You see, we were twins defunct and I; and we got mixed in the bathtub when we were only two weeks old and one of us was drowned; but we didn't knoV which. Some think it was Bill; some think it was me." "Well, that was remarkable. What do you think?" "Goodness knows! I would give whole worlds to know. This solemn, this awful mystery has cast a gloom over my whole life. But I will tell you a secret now, which I have never re vealed to any creature before. One of us had a peculiar mark, a large mole, on the back of his left hand; that was me. That child was the one that was drowned. So, you see, they made an awful blunder. I was drowned, but they went and buried the wrong child. Sh-h-h-h-h, don't say a thing about it where the family can hear it. It's a very sore spot." Zi Drop of Blood Or a little water from the human system when thoroughly tested by the chief chemist at Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., tells the story of impoverished blood nervous exhaustion or some kidney trouble.

Pierre giving the best medical advice possible without cost to those who wish to write and make a full statement of symptoms.

The carrier snail is to the sea what the junkman is to the land. It receives its name from its habit of carrying for eign objects on its back. Nothing comes amiss to the carrier snail if it is not too big. Cast-off shells of small molluscs, bits of broken coral, tiny stones, and even fragments of broken glass dropped overboard from passing vessels are cemented firmly to the edges of the growing shell. Nor is it satisfied when the shell 'is completely covered, but continues to add to its col lection by fastening new pieces to the old ones already piled upon its back until it is no longer able to move be neath its burden. As it is an inhabitant of tropical wa ters swarming with voracious fish, crabs, etc., there is method in its mad ness; its hungry enemies pass it by un able to distinguish it from the rocks and shells on the eea bottom. Some of the snails show a preference for tiny pebbles all of one shape and equal size, others accumulate only shells of one kind, and one picked up off the coast of Japan had its portable house entirely roofed with glass. IN THE POULTRY YARD. Keep up the fight against lice. Dust the hens frequently with In nect powder, especially the hen that has a brood of chicks. Cold rains will kill the ohicks. See that they are under shelter whenever a storm occurs. Feed your fowls in such a way that they will get exercise in obtaining it. Exercise increases the appetite, aids digestion ftnd promotes a healthy con dition generally. Bits of meat carried out with brine from the barrel and left on the ground will give hens serious bowel trouble Don't risk it Wanted the Saliva. A woman living in a Bniall town sear Butte, Mont, purchased from an art dealer there a water-color outfit, with printed directions for its use. These directions included, among oth er things, instructions to moisten the brushes for the first time with saliva. In a day or two the dealer received the following note: "Dear Sir The outfit is complete as ordered, except the saliva. Yours tru'y, Mrs. Blank." Warship as Mussel Bed.

Mixed Metaphor. The famous commingling of meta phors beginning, "I smell a rat; I shall nip him in the bud." has been surpassed.

It is a nursery for the cultivation of trees suitable for use as umbrella handles, walking sticks and alpenstocks. Nearly 500 acres of ground are given over to ash, oak, chestnut and maplo saplings. One year after planting these are cut off near the root so as to make them grow several branches, which are then kept free from sec ondary stems. The most curious part of the indus try comes the following year. In cisions are made in the bark, thus en graving upon it various designs. When the bark is stripped these designs are found traced on the wood. At the end of the third year the branches are cut, stripped of their bark, bent into various shapes and sent to the manu facturers. Certain forms of handles are shaped while the branches are till growing. Popular Magazine. Y FLY KSLIIR DAIS plaM4Mribreat trMU and kill. .11 , flic Neat, clran, inrnamrnul, convert ienl.ctieap.

A currant of water will flow back and forth in a tide-water river, but on the Island of Cephalonla, near Greece, says Popular Mechanics, la the curious phenomena of a river steadily flowing inward from the sea and disappearing. All rivers naturally flow toward the lower levels to the sea, and this curious Instance on the island in the Mediterranean Is not du plicated anywhere else In the world so far as is known. The sea, which Is almost tideless, enters the land at four points where the coast Is practically on a level with the surface of the sea. These four streams unite to form the little river that flows inland until it finally dis appears in the limestone rocks and sinks into the earth. The volume of the river is too great to be removed by evaporation and the question is, Where does it go? As He Frequently Is. "I always agree with my husband." "Very sweet of you." , "Except, of course, when he la In the wrontr." Moth Balls and Moles. Our new lawn was completely ruined by ground moles, and many dollars' worth of bulbs which we set out were eaten.

These drove them away completely the odor of the balls permeating the ground. Woman's Home Companion. me fjiaest Map.
