“Joint Tariff*
If a tariff quotes a through rato hi
which two or more railroads are in-
volved, it is known as a joint tariff
and is filed with the interstate com-
merce commission—that is, if the com-
modity starts with one carrier ant
terminates with another a joint tariff
is necessary.

Kentucky’s Famous
As we were getting ready to pull
out ’ of Lexington the other day, a
traffic cop, who was grinning from ear
to ear, stopped to tell us what it
was all about. He said a car bearing
a Michigan license pulled up to the
curb and the woman driver hailed
him. She wanted to know about all
the historic and interesting spots
around the Blue Grass city.. He told
her where they were and how to
reach them, and then she said:

Lures for Collectors
The objects of the modern col-
lector’s quest are often, to the lay-
man, inexplicably curious. An Item
which was sold at auction only re-
cently, and found a ready purchaser
at $850, was the traveling organ which
James II used for his chapel when
encamped on Hounslow Heath. Among
the objects lately sold at Sotheby’s
were such unusual treasures as a
Sixteenth century German woodman’s
hatchet, complete with maker’s marks,
and what might, to the uninitiate, ap-
pear to be a blunt steel rapier with
the half-length figure of a girl as
handle. It is actually, however, that
great rarity, an official measure of the
king’s alnager, an ancient functionary
whose duties were to inspect and
measure cloth. His office was abol-
ished in the reign of William III.—

Historic Salute Chape’Ie
Saint Louis of France wanted to
build a shrine worthy of containing
sacred relics of the crown of thorns
and the true cross which he had
brought from the Holy land in one
of his crusades. So he built La Sainte
Chapelle in Paris in the purest gothic,
which was at its height in his day. It
is hard to believe that it is now six
hundred and fifty years old. having '
survived three tires, the Revolution
arid the Commune. Restorations have,
of course, taken place, but thousands
of American tourists will agree that
this one gem of architecture is worth
the whole trip across the Atlantic. Its
rose window stays in the memory as
long as life lasts.

It is evident that the premier talked
not of politics that day to Charles
Dickens, hut of literature. And he
made of him a friend. Disraeli was
always making friends—just like that.

One Guess About What
She Was Going to Say
A very7 short woman said to a mil-
linery assistant who came forward to
serve her. “I’ve come in to buy a hat,
but I don’t want you to tell me that
any particular shape adds to my
height. I’ve had to listen to that so
many times that it makes me feel as
if I were dumpy. And I’m not dumpy,
am I?”
“No, indeed,” replied the assistant,
who promised that, no matter how
many hats the customer tried on, she
would say nothing about her size.
The woman tried on hat after hat,
and then at last she selected a shape
that suited the assistant, who ex-
pressed honest admiration.
“You couldn't find anything more
becoming. It suits the way you wear
your hair and the quill adds to your—”
She clapped a hand over her mouth.
“Well?” asked the customer, indig-
nantly.
“Your literary appearance,” finished
the tactful assistant.

• Scotsman’s Rise
The manager of an Aberdeen firm
called his bookkeeper into his private
room.
“Sandy,” he said, “the accountant
is leaving and I’m gaun tae gie you
his job.”
The young bookkeeper's face lit up
with expectation.
“Thank you, sir,” be replied,
what will the salary be now?”
The manager shook his head.
“The same as you’re gettin’, but
ye’ll ha’e a hat-peg to yourself now,”
he returned.—London Answers.

Ole Almost Deserved
to Get Away With It
One night, just before closing up
time, Ole Olsen came running into
the general store, hatless, coatless
and breathless, and dropping on his
knees yelled: “Yon, Yon, hide me,
hide me! Ye sheriff’s after me!”
“I’ve no place to hide ye here, Ole,”
Yon Yonson, the proprietor, said.
“You moost, you moost,” screamed
Ole.
“Crawl into that gunny-sack, then,”
said Yon.
He had no sooner gotten hid than

asked.

Messina Rightly Claims
Most Wonderful Clock
Messina, one of the most important
towns in Sicily, is regaining the glories
it lost in the appalling earthquake
some 22 years ago. One of the most
striking of its new buildings is a tower
which contains the most wonderful
clock in the world.
The tower is surmounted by a bronze
lion holding the city flag in its front
paws. At midday the lion lashes its
tail, waves the' flag, and roars. A
bronze cock placed below the lion
crows a greeting to sunrise, noou, and
sunset. Two arched recesses contain
the bells upon which the hours are
struck by figures of Diana and Clar-
enza, the heroines who save the city
from being sacked by the French after
the Sicilian Vespers in 12S2.
On each of the four sides of the
tower is a luminous dial eight feet in
diameter upon which are displayed
the phases of the moon, a perpetual
calendar, and the movements of the
planets round' the sun.
Below the clock face is a stage upon
which mechanical figures enact scenes
appropriate to the great feasts of the
church.—London Tit-Bits.

without lying.
Then the sheriff went nosing around
and pretty soon he spotted the gunny-
sack over in the corner. “What’s in
here?” he asked.
“Oh, joost some old harness and
sleighbells,” said Yon.
With that the sheriff gave the sack
an awful boot.
