Barker. | A Changed His Taste. The Empress Kugenie, whom Napo- leon III. chose to share his throne, had a ready wit, ahich, although it never veiled a sneer, often confused those on whom it was directed. The late Dr. T. W. Evans tells in his reminiscences the story of a distinguished senator, who, on being asked what he thought of the speech in which Napoleon had declared his marriage intention to the deputies, replied: “A fine speech—excellent! But I pre- fer the sauce to the fish,” meaning that Napoleon’s words were better than his choosing of a bride. Some weeks later, at a dinner given at the Tuileries, this senator was seat- ed next to the empress, who, observ- ing that after having been helped-to to him, smiling roguishly: “Monsieur, I thought it was the sauce you liked and not the fish.” ‘With rare presence of mind the sena- tor hesitated but a moment. 4 “A mistake, madam,” he said, “for which I am now trying to make amends.” The Corner Days. Some aged country folk like to take note of what they call the corner days —the 20th of March and the 20th of September—when the sun crosses the line and the days and nights are of equal length and the 20th of June (the longest day of the year) and the 20th of December (the shortest). After the 20th of June they say, “When the days grow shorter the weather grows hot- ter,” and after Dec. 20, “As the days begin to lengthen the cold begins to strengthen.” Levi Beebe, a noted old weather prophet, who used to watch the weath- er from his eyrie on Beartown moun- tain, southern Berkshire, Mass., made prophecies which were greatly prized. He made his prognostications from a study of the winds, the clear, cloudy and stormy days for ten days each side of the corner days and multiplied them by 3 to tell the weather for each suc- ceeding quarter, and he made some marvelous guesses.—New York Press. Time and the Man. Some one may suggest that if Crom- well and Napoleon Bonaparte and Bis- marck and George Washington and Abraham Lincoln haé not appeared to do the work they did others would have arisen equally capable of doing it, though perhaps in a different way. To this suggestion there are two answers. One is that it is pure conjecture, The other answer is that history shows us many occasions when the great man was needed, and when the need of him was acutely felt, and yet when he did not appear. The greatness of some men s largely due to favoring condi- tions. Other men, perhaps more bril- liant, achieve less than their powers seemed to promise because they were not quite in key with their own age. Perhaps they were ahead of it—James Bryce in Pall Mall Gazette. Great Events From Little Causes. While staying at the court of Fred- erick II. of Prussia Voltaire presented Mme. de Pompadour’s compliments to the king, who scornfully replied, “Je ne la connais pas.” Out of vengeance for so much insult, as she deemed it, madame induced the weakminded Lou- is XV. to convert his country’s long standing hostility against Austria into friendship. A Franco-Austrian army then took the ‘fleld against Prussia, and as It was an easy matter for ma- da.ce to enlist the practical sympathy of Elizabeth of Russia; who had been the subject of Frederick’s indiscreet remarks also, half a raillion lives were lost.—London Notes and Queries. = He Came Back at Her. “Many * mendicants,” said a New York charity official, “are humbugs, and we do well to refuse their requests they sometimes give us in return. 1 remember the case of a farmer's wife who refused a tramp a night’s lodging. “‘Well, then, ma’am,’ said the tramp, ‘would you mind if I slept in that big meadow there behind your barn? * “‘No, sald the.woman, ‘you may sleep there if you like.’ “‘One thing more, ma’am,” said the tramp, ‘before I say good night. Will you please have me called at 4 o’clock sharp? I want to catch the cattle train to market.’ ” Italian Diet. The low resisting power of the Ital- fan, even among the more favored classes, to the assaults of disease has long been ascribed to the profession of the well nigh farinaceous and legu- minous fare on which he subsists—the call on the heart in the later stages of pneumonia, for example, too often find- ing inadequate response from the de- fect of the muscle forming constituents in the diet of the patient.— London Lancet. Geography. “I'd like to see that young Japanese prince.” “A Japanese prince! Where is he?” “Ob, he’s traveling incognito.” “Is he? I'm so dreadfully weak about geographical names. That's in Manchuria, isn’t it?’—Chums. Physical Geographj. ‘The following answer was recently given in a geography examination in reply to the question, “From what di« rection do most of our ralns come?” - Most of our rains come straight down, but some of them come side- ways. % 7 A Safety Match. “Papa; what is a safety match?” Mr. Henpecked = (looking carefully about to see if his wife is within hear- ing)—A safety match, son, is when a baldheaded man marries an armless ‘woman! 5 w o e - - Little girls believe in the man in moon, big girls In the man in the hon- eymoon. g ' the turbot he declined the sauce, sald1- for help.
