A fter wearin’ a suit fer two years around the farm when I ’d come tew town, a.little girl’d yell out tew her maw, “ Muther. oh. muther, one of the rag carpets he z blew offen the line!” It wus tuff on a delicate temperament like me. One day three years ago, a spruce young guy sneaked me into a store marked “ Toggery,” and two entire out casts an’ vildins held me while this here spruce one crammed me violent- like into a suit of-n ew close, choaked. me with a dfirn biled shirt, an' set a flam-de-doodle hat on my head Then they dragged me in front av a glass an’ I sez, “ Whose the smart ap pearin’ gent storin’ at me in this here glass?” “ Uncle, it’s you,” stz the spruce guy. “ Holi spruce tree!” sez I, an’ my chest began tew buck up. Tew hours later, with a fine big black 5-cent ceegar burnm’ rank m my face, I laid down the whatswhat to one of them smarty apple buyers till he just scared-like signed a contract callin’ fer $2000 more fer my crop than I ever got.

A Raxorlasa Race. In all monarchies the killing o f the king or emperor, the Law Journal of London points out, "Is perhaps the gravest form o f high treason.” The Journal adds: “ In one country, Italy, sentence of death cannot be Imposed, a«d In 'Portugal we believe that capl-j tal punishment Is nobused. If not abol ished. Under the law o f treason of the United Kingdom, which has been applied to most o f the king's domin ions abroad, with or without statutory modifications, the killing o f the king Is a capital offence by the statute o f treasons. It Is there described as ‘com passing or Imagining the death o f our lord the king.’ By later legislation (of 1900) the elaborate provisions special to trials for treason do not apply to ivs- sassiuntlon of'th e sovereign or a direct attompt on his life, and such offenses are tried in the lam e manner as willful murder. The resurt Is that In sub-* stance, though not In form, the killing of the sovereign Is triable and punish- able In the same manner as the willful murder of a subject, but the crowu may direct the execution to be by de capitation Instead of hanglxg.” Arco.iij TjMe Ornaments Announcements of candidates of a ll. parties will be run ii i this column at I reasonable rates.
