Pty ——rma ,dinner at the overrubicund and fishy high-class Compliments A@r Death, There {8 a German proverh 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, I8 fairly true In a general sense, and if we required any proof or confirmation the epltaphs in ceme- terles, churchyards and churches would readlly furnish it.

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 injurlously 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, “Not 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. Cautious. A five-year-old girl was very {l], and, noticing the anxlety of her parent, she said, “Mamma, do you think I'm going todie?” “No, my dear,” replied the mother, “we think you will soon be better.” “Well,” said the little one, “I'd like to die and go to heaven on a visit if I was sure I could come back if I didn't like the place.”—Chicago News. Lord Young's Wit. Looking across the table of a public eyes of his neighbor opposite, Lord Young, who was a famous lawyer, in- | auired who the owner of the vinous countenance might be and was told he was the president of a water trust. | “Aye” said Lord Young. “Well, he | looks like a man that could be trusted | with any amount of water!” Some one told Lord Young that the house of lords had on appeal afirmed a decision of his. “It may be right, after all,” was his lordship’s reply. Lions and Fowl, “There 15 a peculiar thing about Hons,” sald a hunter who has trapped big game In Africa for menageries. “They will not eat the flesh of a fowl. You might tempt them with canvas- back duck or the daintiest squab, but they would refuse it. I remember once having a swan which had broken Its wing. We killed 1t, dressed it care- fully and threw it Into the cage of the lons, but they would not touch it, and it finally bad to be taken out and thrown away. I have repeatedly put plgeons alive into the cage just to see what they would do. 1 have thrown grain down among the lions and the plgeons have actually got down and hopped around the big brutes, even hopping on their backs, the lions mak- ing no attempt to disturb them, even seeming to enjoy their companionship. There is something rather strange about this which it is difficult to ex plain.” He Placed an Order. A small, sharp faced boy, one of whose eyelids had an inclination to droop in a chronic wink, entered a tallor shop in upper Broadway, ap- proached the proprietor and silently handed him a button. The tailor took 1t and looked puzzled. “What's this for?” he asked. “I don’t want it. I've got plenty of but- tons.” “Dat’s all right,” said the youngster. “But yer want business, don’t yer?” “Yes “Well, just sew a pair o’ pants on dat button.” The small boy was half way up the block before the tailor reached the door.—New York Globe, It Was Still There. The story is told of a clergyman, who, after he had finished his sermon, heard one of his congregation say, “Yes it was a good sermon, but he stole it.” A short time afterward the preacher called on the man, resented the accusa- tion and asked him to retract what he had said. 4 “I am not,” answered the man, “like- ly to take back anything that I have said, but In this case I will, for on re- turning home and referring to the book ‘whence I thought you had taken your " | sermon, I found that it was still there.” —8t. Louis Rspublh?.; The Deadheads. “What started the riot at the per- formance of ‘Hamlet’ last night?” “Ham held the skull and said, ‘Alas, poor Yorick, you are not the only dead bead In the house’” — Pearson's Weekly. Her Way. “There’s a young woman who makes little things count.” “How does she do it?” “Teaches arithmetic in a primary school.” Forgetful. “I suppose,” sald the beautiful girl, “that you often burn the midnight ofl?” “No,” replied the poet. “I hang my hat on the doorknob, so the landlady can't look through the keyhole and ecatch me burning the gas.”—Judge.
