Sickenzie, & THE TAILOR & SMUGGLING A S(OV&E. “Speaking of smuggling,” time federal deputy, “I'll tell you a cu- rious little story. Shortly after the opening of one of the Mexican roads, never mind which, a locomotive engi- neer got married to a native belle in the town at the lower end of his run _ and set up housekeeping. Among oth- er things they needed was a cooking stove. He could get exactly what they wanted on the American side, but the duty on hardware of that kind was ex- tremely high, and he racked his brains to think of some way to slip it down to his home without paying the exorbi- tant tariff. “A cooking stove is about as easy to smuggle as a baby elephant, but at last he struck a brilliant scheme, and on his next trip he simply lashed the thing to the pilot of his engine. It looked as much out of place as a piano on top of a hearse, but the yardmen were conveniently blind, and he pulled out in triumph. When he stopped at the customs office, the Mexican offi- cials stared at the stove in amazement, but they concluded at once that it was some new Yankee device in connection with the locomotive and asked no ques- tions for fear of betraying their igno- rance of up to date machinery. The consequence was that the engineer got his stove without paying a cent of duty.” Dace Was Enough. The young man who was trying te make the St. Joe boat was about two minutes late as he tore along River street. He could see the steamer hands casting off the ropes as he drew nearer, and, bumping amazed citizens out of his way, he rushed for the dock. The gangplank had been hauled in, and the nose of the steamer had swung six feet out into the river when he finally reached the water’s edge. But that did not deter him. He was going to spend Sunday in Michigan or know why. With a giant swing he tossed his va- ise aboard and then jumped for the tearner. Ile caught a rope and a post and } fast. Every officer on the ted to sce him drop into the river, and hells jangled noisily as the captain peered over the side. When he saw the intrepid passenger was safe, the captain was twice as mad as if le dropped into the water. Shaking had nad his fist at him angrily. he yelled: “Tiere. you. by jiminy crickets, don't you ever do that again!” hauled himself time and, turning a look of scorn at the captain, said: “\What do you think I'm going to do jum! k and try it ovyer?’—Chica- go Chronicle. rhe passenger had aboard by this Fhe Blood Red Banner. Royal aud national colors vary with nations and times; but since Cain slew Abel blood red has been the sign of re- volt. In the earliest revolt known te | Listory, when the Persians rose against | their king 4,000 years ago, they were led by a blood red banner, and during + the riots which took place in Paris the men in the blood red caps were follow- ed by the mob. A blood red flag waved over Bunker Nill when the Americans fought us for liberty, and it was the emblem of the German peasants in their great upris- ings in 1424, 1492 and 1525. Blood red was the color of the trade union flags during the middle ages, and it formed the background of the emblem of the Swiss confederacy in 1315. Through the whole of French and every other national history those striking in their own ways for liberty have worn the blood her cap and hail- ed the blood red banner as their leader. It is a curious fact that never has a monarch chosen it as his color. It bas been left sacred to revolutionists.—Lon- dop Answers, . a The end ofthe vear lots of subscriptions iothe Family Herald and Weekly Star.
