A LONG WAY HOME,
An old Confederate soldier who
lived in Denver entertained a lot of
the men from his regiment when
they came up from Mississippi on
an excursion.
The colonel was hospitable and
kept his brothers in arms until they
were all broke. Then they borrowed
anywhere from five dollars to a hun-
dred each to get back on and the
colonel lent it gladly. Each one
promised to send the money back as
soon as he got home.
Two years later he was talking
about the excursion.
"Them's mighty good fighters,
every one of 'etn," he said, "but thev
was all lost on the way back. I don't
reckon they ever did get home."—

On the other afternoon a horse and
truck became stuck In the soft earth
thrown aside by the workmen repa
vlng the street, says the Philadelphia
Ledger. The truckman swore at the
horse and the policeman swore at the
truckman.
A mounted policeman of the traffic
squad rode up and sat on his well-
groomed horse—himself a well
groomed rider—while he leisurely
took in the situation When the po-
liceman on foot had exhausted his vo-
cabulary and had also failed to coax
the horse by the rein, he turned an
appealing eye to the brother of the
more distinguished service on the
horse.
"Say Flannery," said the mounted
policeman, raising an immaculate
white-gloved hand to his well-trimmed
moustache and gently stroking the
hirsute adornment, "you're handier to
it than me. Lay holt o' the wheel and
give it a yank."
Two minutes later the horse and
truck were on their way, the police-
man on foot was ruefully regarding
the mud on his big hands, and the j There
brother of the equestrian service was
trotting down the street among the
automobiles, still stroking his care-
fully trimmed moustache with his im-
maculate white-gloved digits!
"You never heard of tacking on
wall paper? Oh. dear! yes," said Mr
Flat dweller, "we often do that. We
don't put the paper on with tacks
originally, but we tack it on In ma-
king repairs.
\ ou know how the paper curls
away from the wall sometimes, stiff
and hard with the paste on it? Some-
times if it k left that way pieces of
the harS paper may be broken oft.
Well, you couldn't very well paste
that paper down again, because you
couldn't make any paste strong
enough to take out the curl and make
the paper hold; and then with paste,
even if It would hold, you might not
niake a nice job of It around the
Joints, might get on too much paste
and so get some of it on the outside
of the paper So we just tack down
the curled up paper and tack on the
pieces that may have fallen off
Hut don t the tack heads show in
the paper? N'o, not at all, not—
ahem!—as wp do the tacking That's
where the fine art of tacking on pa
per, as we practice It, comes In.
a pattern on the paper and
sure to III here and there more or less
dark places In the coloring and we
eimply drive the tacks In the dark
spots, where they don't show."
Day of Hard Labor Has Gone By, Ac-
cording to This Tiller of
the Soil.
A Jackson county farmer, serving
on the jury recently, stood in the hall
way of the Criminal court building a
day or two ago, stretching and yawn-
ing. and complaining about not get
ting t'nough exercise out on the farm.
"You fellows around the city do a
lot of walking and shifting about," the
farmer commented to a city man.
"When I was on the farm plowing
and cultivating the soil I had no com-
plaint to make about not getting
enough exercise," was the suggestive
comment of the city man. -
"You lived away back there at a
time when a man followed the plow
and lifted it around at the end of the
furrows, after having carried it to the
field on his back, and such things,"
the farmer explained. "We ride and
plow these days, you know. 'Most
everybody else is done by machin-
ery. \\ hy, we have to construct a
gymnasium on the farm to get a little
•■xercise when we get up in the morn-
ings and before we go to bed at
night."
'1 hen he stretched and yawned
again, while the city man kicked him
self—metaphorically for having to
work so hard.—Kansas City Star.

and quavered, as he drew from his
wallet a yellow bill. "Friend, will you
kindly give me five silver dollars in
exchange for this memento of the
good old confederate days?"
The clerk glanced quickly at the
proffered bill, smiled to himself, tossed
it into the drawer, and counted out
the five dollars. When the guileless-
looking individual had gone, the clerk
examined the bill he had just taken
in He found that it was, or was not,
a good U. S. bill. Either way you

How Far Can You See?
What Is the farthest limit to which
the human vision can reach? Power
in his book. "The Eye and Sight,"
o see the star,
Alcor, situated at the tail of the Great
Bear, as the test. Indeed, the Arabs
call it the Test star. It is most ex-
ceptionable to be able to see Jupiter's
satellites with the naked eye, though
one or two cases are recorded, the
third satellite being the most distinct.
Peruvians are said to be the longest
sighted race on earth. Humboldt re-
cords a case where these Indians per-
ceived a human figure 18 miles away,
being able to recognize that it was
human and clad in white. This is
probably th. i>.. rd lor far sight.
