E. A. Barker. Crushing the Curate. One of the first tasks they set the new curate, who was handicapped by youth and inexperience, was to investi- gate the bona fides of a “widow wo- man” who had applied to the church for help. He departed nervously on his' errand and knocked, as ill luck would have it, at the wrong door. “How long has your poor husband been dead, my good woman? What number of chlldren have you? Are any of them working? If so, what amount of money are they earning altogether?” were the questions he fired, like shots from a revolver, at the slatternly woman who answered his summons. “I presume I am ad- @ressing Mrs. Harriet Smith?”’ he add- ed, noticing with alarm that she look- ed angry. “No, you ain’t,” answered the woman enappishly. *“My name is Selina Jack- son, my bairns go to school and my ‘usband’s doin’ what is necessary to a plateful of steak and onions at this very moment. Would you like to know anything else? Where I was born? ‘When I was baptized? At what age I started courtin’? Perhaps,” she con- cluded sarcastically, rolling her tatter- ed sleeve up above the elbow, “you'd like to see my vaccination mark before you go?” But the bashful curate was already in full flight.—Liverpool Mercury. Disraeli's Nuptial Joke. There was a little Joke between them (Disraell and his wife) which I heard from the late dean of Salisbury. “You know I married you for your money,” Disraeli would say to her. “Oh, yes, but If you were to marry me again you would marry me for lovel” was the regular reply, “Oh, yes!” her husband would exclalm, and the little nuptial comedy ended. But what Disraell said to Bernal Os- borne once about his marriage is much better worth the telling. It was at a dinner party after dinner when the men were alone. “What did you mar- ty her for?’ Osborne asked in his characteristic way. Disraeli’ twiddled his wineglass in the pause that fol- lowed this point blank inquiry. Then he lifted his head slowly and looked the other very expressively in the face. “For a reason,” he sald, “which you could never understand — gratl- tude.”—From “Lord Beaconsfleld and Other Tory Memories,” by T. E. Keb- bel. B 8treet Car Strikes Wagon.

Wednesday, No- ¢ The Doctor's Imagination. 3 “I have n good story on one of Wash Ington’s best known ocullsts,” said a prominent clubma addressing some friends in the bill room of the Met- ropolitan club. *“My eyes had trou- bled me for some months, and finally 1 went to see the doctor about them. “After a thorough examination he sald fhat fhe muscles were badly strained, and then he gave me a pre- scription for drops to be used In my eyes (hree times a day. When I lef( he gave me an appointment for that day week, as he said he could not ex- amine my eyes for glasses until they were In their normal condition. “Well, I mislaid that blessed pre- | scription, and as 1 was particularly busy that week I had no time to get another copy. So in some trepidation I kept my second appointment. “As the doctor examined my eyes 1 hesitated a moment about telling him I had not used the drops, when he took the words out of my mouth and the breath out of my body by remarking with pleaséd emphasis: “‘Your cyes are very much im- proved. That medicine: which 1 gave you is certalnly wonderful. It always has such prompt and satisfactory re- sults. “It was all T could do to keep silent,” concluded the speaker, laughing. “But I wasn’t quite sure how he would take | the joke. You see, he may not have a sense of humor.”"—Washington Star. Comets In Olden Days. People nowadays do not regard the comet as one of those signs that fore- run the death or fall of kings, but the superstition was still current in the time of Queen Elizabeth, though, to the amazement of her courtlers, the queen calmly scorned it. It was also thought that if the sovereign would re- frain from looking at the malignant celestlal passerby no harm would come to her. On one occasion Elizabeth's attendants shut and curtained her win- dows, but her majesty, as might have been expected, with “a courage an- swerable to the greatness of, her es- tate,” caused them to be opened, cry- ing as she looked up: “Jacta est alea— the dle is cast!” Then, like King Knut on the seashore, she read her people a homily, asserting that her “steadfast hope and confidence were too firmly planted in the providence of God to be blasted or affrighted with those beams which either had no ground in nature whereupon to rise or at least no war- rant in Scripture to portend the mis- haps of princes.” Queen Elizabeth as an Ale Drinker. There is an amusing letter written by the Earl of Leicester to Lord Bur- leigh as to the lack of sufficiently strong ale for the queen at Hatfield. “There is not one drop of good drink for her here. We were fain to send to London and Kenilworth and divers other places where ale was. Her own beer was so strong as there was no man able to drink it.” Ale and bread were the chief items of the royal breakfast. The quantity of ale con- sumed by ladies at breakfast in those days was considerable, for in the reign of Henry VIIL the maids of honor were allowed for breakfast “one chet loafe, one manchet, two gallons of ale and a pitcher of wine.” A Lady Lucy made a mighty tonic of the national brew. Her breakfast was a chine of beef, a loaf and a gallon of ale, and for her pillow meal a posset porridge, a generous cut of mutton, a loaf and a gallon of ale.—Westminster Gazette. The Smelts Were Biting. John Quincy Adams of Massachu- setts, third of that name, was very fond of fishing and not especially fond of his legal profession. One day, the story runs, a case in which he was counsel was down for trial in a Mas- sachusetts court. Mr. Adams did not make his appearance, but sent a letter to the judge. That worthy gentleman read it and then postponed the case with the announcement: “Mr. Adams is detained on impor- tant business.” It was afterward learned by a col- league of Adams that the letter read as follows: “Dear Judge—For the sake of old Izaak Walton, please continue my case till Friday. The smelts are biting, and I can't leave.” The Owe Sheridans. Richard Brinsley Butler Sheridan, the great Irishman, was all his life long in dire straits for money, and when he died in 1816 the bailiffs were actually in possession of his house. Sheridan’s forbears had been O'Sher- idans. “Why,” asked on one occasfon: his little son—“why have we not the O’ as well as they?” “Heaven only knows,” was the fa- ther’s reply. “We ought to have it, for we owe everybody.” Only One of a Kind. “Why do you think he is such a re- [ markable man?” “He’s the only one I ever knew wha had nerve enough to make the re- rponses in the marriage service loud enough so that any one could hear hirn.”—Chicago Post.
