Many amusing anecdotes are told of Bishop Burnet’s absence of mind, but few perhaps are more striking and bave been less repeated‘than the fol- lowing, which Lord Orford used to re- late: Burnet was once dining with the Duchess of Marlborough after the great duke'’s disgrace. In the course of conversation, speaking of Marlbor- ough’s great qualities, great services and great fall, Burnet compared the duke with Belisarius, the great Ro- man. _ “But how in reason,” exclaimed the- duchess, ‘“‘could so great a general be abandoned?” “Ah, my lady, do you know what a cursed. brimstone of a wife he had?” The hearers, to the good Burnet's surprise, were confused and dumb struck with the force of'the parallel he discovered in the cases of the Roman and the Englishman.—St. James’ Ga- zette. - The Count Too Touching. In the long corridor of an uptown ho- tel they tell of a certain foreigner who until recently held court there of even- ings. At last he disappeared, and then each of the men who had nightly been entertained by his flow of anecdote and his abundance of witty stories con- fessed that he had lent the count various sums, ranging from $100 up. The total seemed so formidable that a movement was set on foot to bring the defaulter back, his whereabouts hav- ing been ascertained. But funds were needed for the purpose. One of the big men of Wall street who was a creditor on the count’s books to the ex- tent of $500 was approached for a sub- scription. “Not on your life!” said he. “I don’t want him back. Hell borrow more money from me if he gets in town. But I'll subscribe $25 toward a fund to send him back to France if he’ll agree to sail from Boston.”—New York Globe. An Unmentioned Ancestor. Mr. B. is very proud of his ancient lineage and never lets slip an opportu- nity to boast of it. At a dinner where he had been unusually rampant on this subject a fellow guest quieted him by remarking: “If you climb much farther up your family tree you will come face to face with the monkey.’ "—Phfludelphia Tn- quirer. _ o~ talian 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 Japamese prince! Where is he?” “Oh, he’s- traveling incognito.” “Is he? I'm so dreadfully weak about geographical names. That's in Manchuria, isn’t it?’—Chums. Physical Geographs. The following answer was recently given in a geography examination in reply to the question, “From what di- rection do-most of our rains come?” Most of our rains come straight down, -but some of them come side- ways. A Safety Match. “Papa, what is a safety match?” Mr. Henpecked (looking carefully about to see if his wife 13 within hear- ing)—A safety match, son, is when a _baldheaded man marries an armless woman! The Main Trouble. Wise—Oh, give us a rest for awhile, won’t you? Doubley—Well, every fel- low has a right to his opinion and— Wise—Yes, but the trouble is that he can’t be made to realize that there may be a wrong to it.—Indianapolis News.

After a man hg 1 in shops for ten or fiftecn years there is a great desire for o chanze. Some want to go out on a farm, others think that the invention of something that can be patented will solve the problem, while others want to own and run a shop The latter is really the true wechanic, but not necessarily the man who will get out the most or even the best work while working for a | boss, says Charles Ienry in the Work- ers’ Magazine. On the contrary, he will often be considered the lazy man by the foreman when the work is of an ever recurring character. Let, how- ever, some difficulty arise in connec- tion with a job or have some bard proposition to meet and he will always have a suggestion to offer that will help to solve theproblem, while the ordinary man and the hustler will stand around helpless and often dis- interested. He- will bave the elemen- tary laws of mechanics and physics at his finger tips, will 'know enough of electricity to allew him to discourse upon the subject in an intelligent man- ner, and he will be well posted upon the mechanical progress of the day. A Dressmaker of Yarmouth. In the churchyard of Caister, close to Yarmouth, is the grave of the “quiet, little, gentle voiced dress- maker,” of whom at her death in Oc- tober, 1843, the then bishop of Nor- wich said, “I would canonize Sarah Martin if I could.” Yarmouth reveres her to tiiis day. A stained glass win- dow has been placed to her memory in the parish church, where her prayer book is still preserved, while her jour- nal is one of the treasures of the pub- lic lbrary in the tollhouse. Under- neath this building was the miserable dungeon which served as the borough prison, and it was to the amelioration of the lot of the wretched prisoners that Sarah Martin devoted her life. Earning a bare subsistence of fifteen pence a day by toiling from early morning till far on into the night, she yet managed to give up one day in the week to her labor df love. She died in poverty, but the result of her life’s work was the reform of the prison system of Yarmouth.—London Chron- icle: Burned It Into Memory. One of the most characteristically eccentric things ever done by Gelett Burgess (and one of the few true sto- ries of him) was to spend three or four mica and green velvet a little model of an old New -England house, com- plete as to windows, curtains, lawn, garden, trees and even including a hammock with a tiny hat and summer novel and washing stretched out on a clothesline on the back stoop. This was for a dinner given to several lit- erary friends in New York, and when the coffee was served he deliberately set fire to the whole farm. His ex- planation was that had it been spared his guests might have forgotten the affair, but they would always remem- ber the destruction of the house. No one who ever saw the ittle house go up in smoke on its little hill of damp moss will ever forget it. The Misplaced Comma. “Some lawsuits of the highest im- portance have hinged upon the right placing of a comma,” said a judge. “When I first started to practice law a Missouri editor came to me in a peck of trouble to defend him against a threatened libel suit growing out of faulty punctuation. He had not meant to give some innocent young women the slightest offense when he wrote a story about ‘two young men who went " with their girls to attend a lecture and after they left, the girls got drunk.’ Putting that miserable- little comma out of its right place did the work, as it made the girls the ones who became inebriated instead of their escorts. I managed by proper diplomacy and the publication of a neat apology to stave off the damage suits, and afterward my editorial friend became an expert on punctuation.”—Baltimore American, Taunting. 0ld Noah hunted up a barrel stave and started off for the stern of the ark. “Where are you going?”’ asked Mrs. Noah, “I am going to whale that boy Ham,” replied Noah, with a frown. “But, my dear, the lad is only play- ing on his banjo.” “Yes, but it is the tune he is play- Ing.” “And what is the tune?’ “‘Walit Till the Sun Shines Lizzie.” —Chicago News. Angty Adjectives. Tt was not a young woman novelist, out Charles Sumner, of whom the late B. L. Godkin, the New York editor, sajd: He works his adjectives so hard that if they ever catch him alone they will murder him. Very Steady. Farmer Haye -That Jones boy that used to work for you wants me to give him a job. Is he steady? Farmer Beede—Well, if he was any_steadier be’d be motionless.—London Express. Poor Jack.
