Declaring that he was waiting for a man, the stranger was soon lost in profound slumber.

That historic bit of ground known te the world as Boston Common has been the background of many a strange and picturesque scene. Surely not one of the varied events which have been acted upon it presents a quainter ple-| you eat like a horse’—New Orleans re than one which took place about 750. Mr. Francis Drake describes the occurrence in his article in “The Memo- rial, History of Boston” on “Life In Boston In the Provincial Period.” In}1720 an attempt was made in Bos- ton to encourage the art of spinning and to establish schools where the process could be taught to the poor. It was recommended ‘that twenty spin- ning wheels should be provided by the town. for the use of children sent from the allmshouse and a premium allowed of £5 for the first piece of linen spun and woven. In 1747 a soclety was organized for the encouragement of the industry, and the fourth anniversary was publicly celebrated. “In .the afternoon,” says an old ac- count, “300 young female f’instets, de- cently dressed, appeared on the com- mon with their spinning wheels. The wheels were placed in three rows, a female at each wheel. Weavers also appeared In garments of their own weaving. There was an immense num- ber of spectators.” The Size of Great Men. The Iron Duke has always been a mystery. I have read that he was six feet: four inches tall. I have read also that, he was only five feet six inches. Historians tell us he was anywhere from five feet six inches to five feet eleven: inches. There are some things seemingly very simple which it is im- possible to_establish. This is one of them. Historians are still guessing the height of Julius Caesar, the size of Hannibal’s; head, the weight of Alex- ander the (Great and the general di- mensions of Wolomon. Why, we are not even sure of the stature of George ‘Washington. Itimight be believed that Napoleon, Alexander the Great and Jay Gould'were of the same size, three bumptious little chaps. And it is com- mon beHef that Charlemagne, Erling the Bold, Frederick the Great, Robert Bruce, Sir Willlam' Wallace, General ‘Winfield Scott and Richard Coeur de Lion were all top notchers, “Old Fuss and Feathers®’ formed in the prodigal- ity of nature, leading in glirth and welght—New York Press. x This Day and Time. %Dis ybr day an’ time,” said Brother Whiiliams, “Is too much fer me.

Whar we’ll fetch up I A aocror, NOW eminent, was Gt one time serving as interne in one of the Philadelphia hospitals as well as hold- ing. his own with a coterie of rather gay friends. On a certain morning the physician awoke to find that he had sadly overslept. Sleepily donning his attire, he hastened to the hospital and goon a stalwart young Irishman claim- ed his attention. “Well, my man, what seems to be your trouble this morning?’ inquired the doctor, concealing a yawn and tak- ing the patient by the hand to examine his pulse. “Faith, sor, it's all in me breathin’, doctor. I can’t git me breath at all, at alL” “The pulse is normal, Pat, but let me examine the lung action a mo- ment,” replied the doctor, kneeling be- side the cot and laying his head on the Irishman’s chest. “Now let me hear you talk,” he continued, closing his eyes and listening attentively for sounds of pulmonary congestion. A moment of silence. “What will I be sayin’, doctor?” finally asked the patient. “Oh, say anything. Count. Count one, two, three and up, that way,” murmured the physician drowsily. “Wan, two, three, fure, five, six.” When the young doctor, with a start, opened his eyes, Pat was continuing weakly, “Tin hundred an’ sixty-nine, tin hundred an’ sivinty, tin hundred an’ sivinty-wan.”—Success. Taken Unawares. - It s likely that the most embarrass- ed man in New York could be found last Monday in a Sixth avenue store. He was a mild, Inoffensive looking man, He stood leaning over the bal- cony that surrounds the first floor of the store, looking with interest at the crowd below. Presently his eye alight- ed on a small boy who was being rush- ed from counter to counter in tow of a very large woman. Just as he look- ed down at the boy the boy looked up at him. Instinctively perceiving, with diabolle instinet, what would be his own youthful propensity if he occu- pied a similar point of vantage, the boy struck a beseeching attitude and called out in imploring accents: “Oh, mister; please, mister, don’t spit on mel” $ For a man with no intention of spit- ting on that particular boy or any one else the situation was certainly awk- wark, and the man retired in red faced confusion.—New York Times. Queer, but True. “For this here splurge,” said the ca- terer, “do the guests know one another well or are they jest passin’ acquaint- ances?” ““Oh, they are intimate friends, life- long friends.” “Then,” said the caterer, “Ill add 20 per cent to that estimate if you don’t mind.” “But I do mind. Why"— friends,” the caterer insisted. *T'd be out of pocket otherwise. A bunch of friends at a splurge always eat a fifth more than a bunch of passin’ acquaint- ances or strangers. Didn’t you mnever notice that?” he concluded as he recti- fied the bill. “You might have noticed it from your own experience.
