REASONING
IT OUT
Th* Girl Won, at Course, But
Not by Argument
“My, what a, loud one!” ijf&V&red
Herbert.
They sat up straight and listened
for mother's approaching footsteps, but
not a drum was heard, not a funeral
note.
Gertrude put her head back on Her
bert's shoulder.
“Mother didn't hear," she giggled.
“It’s a wonder,” said Herbert. "It
sounded like an old cow pulling her
foot out of a swamp.”
“Louder than that,” said Gertrude;
“it sounded like Old Bob the hackman
chirping his horse, and when old Bob
chirps his horse, you know, you can
hear him all over town.”
“Yes; 1 know,” said Herbert, “but
even so, he doesn't chirp his horse ns
loud as a cow pulls her foot out of a
swamp.”
“I'd like to know why not!”
“It stands to reason. Of course, Old
Bob makes a loud noise when he
chirps his hor«e; we'll all admit that;
but when an old cow pulls her foot out
of a swamp it Just naturally stands to
reason that she can make more noise
than ever Old Bob could!”
“No, Herbert.”
“Yes. Gertrude.**
No, Herbert.”
“Yes, Gertrude.**
“No.”
“Yes."
“No.”
"Yes” -
“Herbert Knight, I just want you to
understand that you don’t necessarily
know it all, even if you have been to
college, and I just want to tell you
again that if Old Bob was chirping his
horse at the same time that the old
cow was pulling her foot out of the
swamp, why, you just wouldn’t be able
to hear the old cow—that's all!”
“But, my dear girl—” ,
“Don't you call me your dear girl!"
“But, Gertrude! Listen! Listen to
reason! I love you dearly, but let the
basis of our love be reason! That is
the only enduring love! Now, when
Old Hob chirps his horse, how does
he make the sound. With his lips?
Very well, now let us say that Old
Bob's mouth is three inches wide.
Let us even say it is four, and that
when he chirps he presses his lips
together until the surface of contact
is four inches by one inch—a total of
four square inches. Now, on the othfer
hand, here’s the cow—”
“I just don't care! When Old Bob
chirps his horse—"
Must one moment, please. Now
here's the cow and we’ll say that her
hoof is three inches in diameter or,
say, nine inches in circumference.
Let us also say that it is three inches
high, so when her foot is in the swamp
there is a total contact surface of 27
square inches as against Old Bob's
four—”
“That makes no difference. When
Old Bob chirps his horse you can—”
“Of course it makes a difference.
And when you take into consideration
the fact that the cow has so much
more strength than Bob, and that her
foot is of such shape that it lends it
self most peculiarly and particularly
to the production of a loud, chirping
sound, why, then, my dear—"
“Don't you call me your dear!”
“But, Gertrude, your stand is so
ridiculous!"
She looked at him with a face like
ice.
“For the last time,” she coldly cried,
“I say that, it sounded like Old Bob
when he chirps his horse!”
He gazed back at her like a man who
is being sorely tried, but who will die
for his convictions.
“And I say,” he as coldly answered,
“that it sounded like an old cow pull
ing her foot out of a 6wamp.”
“I warn you now!” she cautioned
him. and with the air of one who fires
a last shot over an enemy's bow she
exclaimed: “Old Bob!"
“I cannot help it!” he decisively an
swered, and with the aspect of a man
nailing his colors to the mast he
clenched his teeth and returned: “Old
cow!"
“Old Bob!’ she cried.
“Old cow!" he firmly responded.
"Old Bob!"
“Old cow!”
"Bob!"
"Cow!”
“Bob!” *;
-Cow!" ;
She slowly took off his ring and
•lowly gave it to him, averting her
head suddenly and sobbing: “G-g-go!
G-g-go! I can never be yours!”
"Rut, ray dear girl! Gertrude! My
love! Listen to me! You must listen
xto me!”
“I’ want you to g-g-go away,” she
sobbed. “We could never be h-h-happy
together and I want you to g-g-go!”
I “But, Gertrude—couldn't you see
that I was—that I was only joking?”
She lifted her tearful face from her
handkerchief.
“Couldn’t you see how absurd ray ar
guments were?” he cried. “Why, of
course Old Bob chirps to his horse
louder than an old cow pulls her foot
out of a swamp! Of course he does!”
He took her hand, solemnly replaced
his ring, pressed her to him and as he
gave her another loud one she closed
her eyes in ecstasy and murmured to
herself over and over again:
“O, I can twist him around my lit
tle finger! O, I can twist him around
my little finger!"
TEMPTATIONS OF A MINISTER.
Questions of the Day Thrust Upon
Him in the Pulpit.
The temptation to be other than a
mere preacher comes to a minister,
not only from within his own mind,
from reading and observation, but the
people of his parish and his neighbor
hood thrust other suggestions upon
him. One parishioner wants his opin
ion on the Sunday closing law, an
other wants a book reviewed, another
likes to see his clergyman quoted in
i the local newspapers, the local papers
! like to get the ministers to discuss
I public questions.
In this way, as well as by original
thought, a minister has the questions
of the day thrust upon him. Not only
that, but there are many ministers of
great success and great influence who
have always faced the questions of
: the day, discussed them and fought
| for their interpretation of them.
So the minister who believes in
I preaching gospel and nothing but
: gospel is opposing some accepted facts
: as well as proposing a worthy theory.

The Shortest Hour.
“What is your shortest hour in the
I day?" asked a business man of an ac
quaintance. “Don't say you have
none. You have, although you may
not know it. Everybody has. Oi
course, reckoned by actual measure
ments, each hour is somposed of 6C
minutes, yet, notwithstanding that
chronological exactness, the hours
vary in length. My shortest hour is
from two to three o'clock in the aft
ernoon. I find upon inquiry that that
is the shortest period for many peo
First Canaries in Europe.
The first hint that can be found in
Europe of the forbears of our canaries
who “discourse sweet music” to us
winter and summer alike, is in Spain,
where we are told that in 1478 some
specimens were brought by Ilenry,
the navigator, on his return from one
of his voyages, during which he
landed at the Canary islands.
Africans Put on Clothes.
The natives of the African Gold
Coast, who, up until three months
ago, went about innocent of clothing
or cloths of any kind, are said by a
British publication to have quite sud
denly developed a desire to clothe
themselves, and supplies are being
furnished them from German Togo
; land.—Consular Report.
Apple Preserved in Lime.
A man in East Concord, N. H., re
cently unearthed an apple in a perfeo
state of preservation while digging ir
his yard. It was three or four feei
under ground and Imbedded in sorai
slacked lime, which was probablj
thrown away when the house was bulb
several years ago.

"Yes, she Is rather impressionable."
"Impressionable? 1 don’t see—”
”1 mean she’s liable to gat excited

’ ..•Caas.: .*s~ab i I ill....—
The Ills peculiar to women, take different forms.
Some ladies suffer, every month, from dark rings round their eyes, blotches on their skin and tired
feeling. Others suffer agonies of pain, that words can hardly express.
Whatever the symptoms, remember there is one medicine that will go beyond mere symptoms, and
act on the cause of their troubles, the weakened womanly organs.
