Compliments 7 g Death, There is a German proverb which says, “Man darf nur sterben um gelobt zu werden” (We need only die in order to get praised). This, we cannot help but admit, is fairly true in a general sense, and if we required any proof or confirmation the epitaphs in ceme- teries, churchyards and churches would readily furnish it. Indeed if we had no other testimony to go by than these pious inscriptions we might al- most fancy that men and women had arrived at such a state of perfection that they were little less than angels. Death, like time, is a great healer of wounds, a great soother of passions, a great calmer of turbulent thoughts, a slayer of enmity. He is the peace- maker par excellence, having caused the saying to galn general currency that we should say nothing of the dead but what is good. Among the laws of the “Twelve Tables,” compiled by the Decemvirl, there was one which, in fact, forbade to speak injuriously of the dead. It is in exchange for this doubtless that we are always doubly anxious and ready to vilify the living. —Westminster Gazette. A Spurgeon Ruse. Spurgeon, the famous English di- vine, once passed a’ stonemason who, after each stroke of his hammer, curs- ed and swore. Mr. Spurgeon laid his hand on his shoulder and, looking kind- ly at him, said: “You are an adept at swearing. Can you also pray?” ‘With another oath he replied, very likely.” Holding up 5 shillings, Mr. Spurgeon said if he would promise never to pray he would give him that. “That is easily earned,” said the man, with a fresh oath, and put it in his pocket. When Spurgeon left the man began to feel a little queer. When he went home his wife asked him what ailed him, and he told her. “It is Ju. das’ money,” sald the man, and on a sudden impulse he threw it into the fire. The wife found it and took it out and discovered who had given it to him. The man took it back to Spur- geon, who conversed long with him, warning him, and at length was the means of saving him. He became an attached member of his flock. “Not His Class. The head of a large mercantile house received not long ago a letter from a millionaire banker in the west asking that the latter’s son be placed in some business house where he could learn “things from the bottom up.”” The writer explained that his offspring was “no good at home.” Soon after the western millionaire recelved the following reply from his New York friend: Dear Sir—Your hopeful has arrived. I have given him employment in my est: lishment at $6 a week with others of class. One of these young men has just bought a $50,000 yacht, and another comes to the office in a $9,000 motor car. No doubt your son will find his surroundings oongenial, —Harper's Weekly. A Bad Cast. Mr. Lawhead—Why do you treat me 80 coldly? Why didn’t you answer the note I wrote you last Thursday? Miss Brushley—8ir, I don’t wish to haye anything more to say to you. You began your note by saying you “thought you would drop me a line.” 1 want you to understand that I'm not & fish.

Does it stimu- Majertic Webster. Theodnre Parker gave the following graphic description of Danlel Webster In the famous three hour sermon preached soon after Webster's death; He was a man of large mold, a | great body and a great brain. He | seemed made to last n hundred years. Bince Socrates there has seldom been u head so massively large save the 8to] features of Michael Angelc'.‘I Sinwe Charlemague 1 think there hag not heen such a grand figure {n all Chrlstendom. A large wan, decorous in dress, dignlfied In deportment, he walked as if he felt himself a king. The coal heavers and porters of London Jooked on him as oune of the great forces of the globe. They recognized a native king. In the senate of the United States he looked an emperor in that council. Even the majestic Cal- houn seemed common compared with him. Clay looked vulgar and Van Buren but a fox. What a mouth he had! It was a lion’s mouth, yet there ‘was a sweet grandeur in the smile and a woman's softness when he would. ‘What a brow it was! What eyes—llke charcoal fires in the bottom of a deep, dark well! His face was rugged with volcanic fires—great passions and great thoughts, “The front of Jove himself; an eye like Mars, to threaten and com- mand.” Came Near It. ‘Wit and humor are such elemental, fundamental things that it has al- ways been found difficult to analyze them. Upon some points, however, those who have essayed this™ puzzling task agree, for they all hold that wit is an intellectual, humor an emotional, quality; that wit is a perception of re- | semblance and humor a perception of contrast, of discrepancy, of incongru- ity. The incongruity is that which arises between the ideal and the fact, between theory and practice, between promise and performance, and perhaps it might be added that it is always or almost always a moral Incongruity. In the case both of wit and humor there is also a pléasurable surprise, a gentle shock which accompanies our percep- tlon of the hitherto unsuspected re- semblance or incongruity. A New England farmer was once describing In the presence of a very humane per- son the great age and debility of a horse that he formerly owned and used. “You ought to have killed him,” interrupted the humane person indig- nantly. “Well,” drawled the farmer, “we did—almost.”—Atlantic. A Strenuous Statesman. In his “Eclipse and O'Kelly” Theo- dore Andrea Cook tells a story of the English statesman and sport Fox. ‘He had wagered something about a waist- coat which could only be obtained in Paris; went off to Dover by night, caught the mail packet, posted to Par- is and back to Calals, and remembered he had a horse racing at Newmarket. He chartered a fishing boat bound for the eastern counties, just got to New- market in time for the race, took the post back to London and stopped on the way to dine. port and dice after dinner he was caught by a special messenger who had been tearing over half of England m search of him and reminded that he had to move to bring in a marriage bill in the house of commons. He rushed to the stables, reached the house in time to make 2 brilliant speech in re- ply to North and Durke and defeated |j North on a division by a single vote. The Bee's Feet. Naturalists say that the feet of the common working bee exhibit the curi- ous combination of a basket, a brush and a pair of pinchers. The brush, the hairs of which are arranged in sym- metrical rows, is seen only with a high. grade microscope. With this brush of fairy delicacy the bee brushes its vel- vet robe to remove the pollen dust with which it becomes loaded while suck-:| ing up the nectar of flowers. Another delicate apparatus is the spoon shaped appendage that receives the gleanings ‘» that the bee wishes to carry to the hive. Finally, by opening the. brush and the basket by means of a neat lit- tle hinge, the two become a pair of | pinchers, which render important serv- | ice in constructing the cells for the reception of the’ honey. Tinned Tongue. “Are you studying Esperanto, Mr. | E Idiot?” asked the linguist. “I am mnot,” said the idiot. “I can talk too much jn English if I want to.” | i “It is a very fine language,” said the linguist—“condensed, concise and easi- | 8 1y acquired.” “No doubt,” said the idiot. “But I don’t care for potted tongue.’—Broad- ‘way Magazine. The Other Captain. Captaln (witheringly to private)—My friend, you ought to be eating hay. Are there any more like you in your family? Private—I have only one brother, sir. Captain—Oh! And what is he? Private—Captalin, sir.—Bon Vi- vant. His Act of Charity. Mrs. Henpeque—So you did an act of charity to commemorate the twen- tleth anniversary of our wedding. Mr, Henpeque—Yes; 1 refused a raise in ealary to one of my clerks who wanted to get married.
