Only a highly civil trod and very wealthy people con HI have erected Angkor-Wat, a very different race from the Anamlte of modern days.

He Get the Trout. A story dealing with a large trout that was rising regularly and frequently Is told In •How to Fish: A Tree tine on Trout and Trout Fishers." This la the story: "lie was going up and down, up and down, up and down; not as ihe Insects offered themselves, but a's It suited bis composure that he should take a midge from the abundance. One youth was casting at the trout; another was looking on. t-ald the angler. Til have that Osh whether he takes It or not' 'HowT his friend asked. TU throw the fly Into his mouth.' The trout went on rising: the angler went on casting. I perceived the angler’s notion. It was that If lie kept casting eccnra*ely and the (rout continued lo rise in the regular manner mentioned, the fly would ere long fall at the very moment when a midge was being taken. This reckoning was justified. The large trout was hooked and landed by s fly that had been cast Into his mouth.”

Old Fashioned Oratory. "We don't have no alcb forensic oratory os we used to have.” said the old settler. "I-ajvyera nowadays don’t orate. They only Just talk. Take old BUI K. Simmons of Ran Clair. If BUI was defendin' a lowly chicken thief he'd apeak with the tongue of angels. 1'U never forglt the peroration of his Impassioned philippic In the day Ball case atmut the poisoned cat. It runs-like this here.” The little, thin old man rose, reared back In a deflaut attitude and shouted In the cracked treble of age: “ 'Bestin' upon the couch of republican liberty as 1 do. covered with the blanket of constitutional panoply as I am and protected by the aegis of American equality as I feel myself to be. I despise the buzzln' of the professional Inseck who has Just sot down and defy bis attempt to penetrate with puny sting the Interstices of me 1mtrin” Xew York Press.
