Hll Query. Wilfred was taken to the lake, which was entirely frozen over, and the smooth ice glittered in the sunlight. It was the first time the little fellow had Seen this body of water covered with Ice, and, after viewing It for a few minutes, he turned to his mother and asked funocently: “Say, mamma, who put the Iid on the lake?’—Circle. A certain Chinese { having told his men to huve two ingots of gokl sent to his treasury for pu- chase, the shopmen brought thom In and In answer to the query of the tao- tal told him that the price was so much In taels, but added. “This is the or- dinary price, but for your honor we will knock off one-balf of the price.™ Then the taotal sald to his underlings; “Seeing that they are to sell to me at only one-half price, just give them back one Ingot of gold and put the other In my treasury, and thus thelr’ account Is settled. Goodby.” So the underlings of the yamen did so, ‘but still the shopmen hung around walt- Ing. The taotal asked them why they were waliting, when their account had been already settled, Said the shop- men, “When did your honor pay your humble servants?’ Then the magis- trate answered with a very fierce alr: “Tajo nu ts-al” (Impertinent slaves), “did you not say that these two gold Ingots were half price to me? Then ald I not give you back one Ingot and keep the other and thus settle your ac- count without the least Injustice ac- cording to your own proposition? So be off with you or my lictors will give you a taste of the scourge.”—Harper's Weekly. Al (n .mg\wtrutc A Singular Calculation. It would require, according to the calculations of a sclentist, the power of a 10,000 horsepower engine about 70,000,000,000 years to lift the earth a foot in height, and to do this work, allowing thirteen pounds of water per horsepower -per hour, would require some 10,000,000,000,000,000,000 gallons of water, or more than would be dis- charged at the mouth of the Mississip- pl in 6,000 years. This would be enough, the writer estimates, to cover the entire surface of the earth to a depth of not less than 300 feet, to convert which into steam, using good boilers, would require some 4,000,000,- 000,000,000 tons of coal. If the latter quantity of the mineral was loaded on cars of twenty tons each it would de- mand 200,000,000,000,000 such cars. If the latter were thirty feet long and all coupled together in one {irain it would reach around the earth 45,000, 000 times and, if running twenty-five miles per hour, would consume 25,000,- 000 years in running the length of it- self. So much for figures. “Crocodile Tears.” The phrase “crocodile tears” owes its origin to the imagination of some of the old travelers, who invented the fable that the crocodile weeps over its prey. One of the earliest English globe trotters to mention this fiction was Sir John Mandeville, who in his “Travels” (1499), speaking of “ZAtthiop,” “Ynde” and an “Yle clept Silla,” says: “That Lond {s full of Serpents and of Cokadrilles. These Cokadrilles ben a manner of Long Serpente, zalowe and rayed aboven, and had four Feete and schorte Thyes and, grete Nayles as Clees or Talonns, and there ben sume that had five Fadme in length and sume of six and a halfendal. And in the nyght thel dwellen In the Water and on the Day won upon the Lond. Theise Serpentes slue men, and thel eten hem weypnge, and when thei eten thei moven the over Jowe and noughte the nether Jowe, and thei have no tonge.”—St. Louis Republic. Me and My Father. The commercial traveler flicked the dust off his boots, straightened his tie and entered the emporium of Mr. Brown, the village grocer. He was new to the district, otherwise he would not have made the error which we now'| divulge. Behind the counter was a young gentleman of fourteen, with bulging eyes and a high collar. To him the traveler addressed himself. “My boy,” he said, “is Mr. Brown mr “I'm Mr. Brown,” the boy replied. “But possibly you want to see old Mr. Brown, my father. I'll get him.” And as the boy went in search of his prematurely aged parent it dawned upon the traveler that this is indeed an age of young men.—London An- swers. Ideals. He kissed her hand. She withdrew it hastily and gazed re- proachfully at him. “I didn’t think it of you!” she said, almost tearfully. “I had always con- sidered you a young man with ideals, and”’— “I-1I am sorry if I have offended,” he stammered. “I"— “Well,” she sald bitterly, “I certain- Iy expected you to alm higher.” 8o he took heart and made new res- olutions and things.—Brooklyn Eagle. Safe. Mrs. Smith—Yes, my little five-year- old girl is a great help in my house- keeping. Mrs. Randall-Why, what can such a child do to help? Mrs. Smith—She goes down and tells the cook for me whenever we're going to have company.—Harper’'s Bazar. Delicately Put. He would not say that she painted, powdered and all that. He was too much of a gentleman for that. “Still I may as well confess,” he #ald, “that she impressed me as one who ‘thinks she can improve upon the Lord's handiwork.” The Plagiari “Father,” sald Rollo, plagiarist?” “A plagiarist, my son, is a klepto- maniac who lacks the courage to take anything which the police could be called on {o protect.”— Star.

Chief among the many objects of in- terest In the gardens of Easton Lodge, Dunmow, the residence of the Earl and Countess of Warwick, Is the magnifi- cent lilac tree which occuples a con- spicuous position on the terrace. This tree s the finest specimen of Its kind In the United Kingdom. It has a cir- cumference of 120 feet and a height of sixteen feet, and it has so dense a growth and blooms so profusely that when in flower it forms a huge bou- quet of lilac-blossoms, ‘The lilac is that commonly known as the Perstan and described by the bo |+ AEIsLE T8 e T ‘Washington 1 2 TR Dut T 13 ot a native of elthm Persia or China, but was ralsed in the Rouen botanlc gar- den In 1705 by the hybridization of the true Pevsian lilac and the common 114 lac of British gardens.

T was told at 8:30 It was time for luncheon, writes an American tin- smith working In Leipzig. On stating that I did not care to.eat, he told me that It would be better if I did no work, so 1 sat down for half an hour and watched the others. At noon we had'an hour and a half and at 4 o’clock fifteen minutes for lunch. It may be of interest to some read- ers to know what the German eats. For his first breakfast he generally has a milk roll and a cup of coffee. The second breakfast is almost always a slice of bread with lard or goose oll, a plece of sausage or cheese and a bottle of beer. For dinner he has two slices of bread as above, with a her- ring or large green pickle, cheese or sausage and another bottle of heer. For lunch another bottle of beer and a milk roll.

Among the tombs near the old Ar- lington mansion on the Chesapeake is the mausoleum of John Custis, the father of Martha Washington’s first husband. It bears this suggestive in- seription: Beneath this Marbla Tomb lles ye Body of the Honorable John Custis, Esq.
