Business men are constantly being pestered by young men who seek pos tions through letters of recommend tion, often in the form of personal re- quests from fellow business men. One may well question whether these let- ters have any great “pulling” power after all. The Saturday Evening Dost tells of such an instance. After heing very politely dismissed by several managers with the stereotyped e: sion that there was not a vacancy present, the young man tore up the let- ters and went back to the place last visited. “What can I do for you now?”’ the manager asked in an annoyed tone. “Pardon me,” said the young man, “but I've just torn up those letters. Could you give me a job on my own hook?” The manager looked amused and said: “We need a young fellow to chip castings in the machine shop at $6 a week. If you like, you can have that until something better turns up.” “Yes, sir,” replied the job hunter. “I'm ready now.” Queen Sophia and Bismarck. Queen Sophia of the Netherlands, the first wife of King William III. of Hol- land, was too great a friend of Em- peror Napoleon III, the Empress Eu- genie and of France generally to take kindly to Bismarck. Before the big war of 1870 and probably some time after the Luxembourg squabble there was an international exhibition in Am- sterdam, which the queen visited. She was conducted over the whole place by the committee, and as they came to a certain section one of the members said, “Now your majesty will see the greatest enemy of Germany.” “Ah, Bismarck!” she cried, with some glee. The members stood aghast and never repeated this rash exclamation. The “greatest enemy” he had to exhibit was not, of course, Bismarck at all, but only a very much enlarged repro- duction of either the phylloxera or the Colorado beetle, which at that time did a great deal of harm to German agri- cuture.—Westminster Gazette. Placing the Responsibility. For six months or more the drug- gist's assistant had occupied his leisure moments by writing verses for the vil- lage paper, in the “poets’ corner” of ‘which publication they appeared anony- mously every Thursday, says the Youth’s Companion. On opening his copy of the Weekly Bugle one morning, and, turning first, as was his regular habit, to that particular corner, he was surprised and gratified beyond meas- ure to see his name in full appended to his latest poetical outbreak. He hastened to call at the office of the Bugle. “Mr. Stires,” he said to the editor, “I want to thank you for signing my name to my poem in this week’s paper. It encourages a fellow when he gets proper credit for his work.” “Oh, that's all right, Jobson,” re- sponded the editor. “We thought it was about time to place the responsi- bility for that poetry where it be- longed.” His “Richt” Name. From queer names and descriptions of things there follow as a natural sequence queer names and descriptions of people. Among a number of racy instances is one quoted by Mr. Fox- Davies, the well known authority on nomenclature, from Blackwood’s Mag- azine, of April, 1842. “In one of the Buchan fishing villages a stranger had occasion to call on a fisherman of the name of Alexander White. Meeting a girl, he asked, ‘Can ye tell me fa'r Sanny Fite lives? ‘Filk Sanny Fite?’ quoth she. ‘Muckle Sanny Fite? said he. ‘Filk muckle Sanny Fite? ‘Muckle lang Sanny Fite’ ‘Filk muckle lang Sanny Fite? ‘Muckle lang gleyed Sanny Fite!? shouted the exasperated man. ‘Oh, it's Goup-the-Lift ye're seeking,” answered the girl, ‘and fat the de’il for dinna ye speer for the mon by his richt name at ance? ” A Caustic Rejoinder, A physician who had for fifteen gears been one of the doctors of the Actors’ fund and who attended hun- dreds of actors with no compensation whatever, wrote to a prominent man- ager and asked for some theater tick- | ets. His request was refused, the man- ager asking what the doctor had ever done that he should be entitled to re- celve theater tickets gratis. The phy- siclan immediately replied. "His letter | contained a brief recital of his services to theatrical people. In conclusion he ! said: “Despite my services, as named | above, I should not have thought of asking you for tickets had it not been that upon the occaslon of the death of | Mr. Blank you assured me that if you could ever serve me in any way what- ‘ ever you would consider it a favor if I would call upon you. However, I bear you no ill will on account of your present action. I was very glad to at- tend Mr. Blank when he died in your box office, and I sheuld be happy to do as much for you at any time.” Tom Corwin's Education. The father of Tom Corwin, the fa- mous Kentucky statesman, orator and wit, felt that he was too poor to make a scholar of more than one child of his large family, and so the elder brother, Matthias, was kept at school and Thomas placed at hard work on the farm. The breaking of a leg proved a happy incident in the life of the boy, as the enforced confinement gave him time for devotion to his beloved books, and he committed a Latin grammar to memory. Upon his recovery he again importuned his father to send him to school and, meeting a refusal, deliber- ately broke his leg the second time that he might have leisure to study. His heroic determination to learn resulted in his being placed in the same instita- tion attended by his brother, where his natural ability and great industry gath- ered a thorough knowledge of the best English literature and a fair acquaint- ance with the Latin classics.—Ohio Magazine, Why Horses Shy. The horse shied at a piece of white paper, and the rider tumbled off into the mud. “It is well for the world,” said an automobilist, smiling, “that it is ceas- ing to use the horse for a servant. The horse is a half blind giant, with the mind of a baby. No wonder, then, that when we trust out lives in his keeping be is apt to go back on us. “His main trouble is his eyes. poor is the horse’s sight that he m takes a bank of snow for a fierce white beast. A mud puddle at his feet is a yawning chasm. A shadow flung across his path is a black terror seeking his life; hence the weakminded, nearsight- | ed, powerful horse goes through life beside himself with fear. He is no more to be trusted than a maniae, and, like a maniac, he sees a monster awaj ing him at every corner. Yet we get on his back, fools that we are.”—New Orleans Times-Democrat. So toothpick.

Thus we have been satisfied to account for the absorption of food from the alimentary canal by the laws of diffusion and osmosis. But we now know that, as re- gards osmosis, the wall of the intestine does not behave like a dead membrane. ‘We know that the intestinal wall is covered with epithelium and that every epithelial cell is in itself an organism, a living being with the most complex functions.
