The Left Twin. The survivor of twing is sometimes eredited with curious powers, In folk- lore he takes his place with the sev- enth son and with the child born with a caul. All these are supposed to have either special powers of healing or in some cases to be gifted with the mys- terious power of second sight. “In Essex; England,” says W. G. Black in his book on “Folk Medicine,” “a child known familiarly as a ‘left twin'—l. e., a child who has survived its fellow twin—is thought to have the power of curing the thrush by blowing three times into the patient's mouth if the patient is of the opposite sex.” This Is folklore, pure and simple. Another tountry notion generally held is that If twins are boy and girl the latter will never become a mother. The physiology of the subject Is obseure, but there is probably ground for the bellef. Another idea not infrequently met with is that the Intelligence of twins Is below the average. It Is al- ways difficult to prove a negative, but it I8 very doubtful whether facts sup- port this notion of limited Intelligence to any extent whatever. It is much that their physical strength is likely to be something less than normal What's In a Name? “Come here, Bates!” roared Dr. Big- wig, head and only master of the Cramton village scheol. “I have today received—ahem!—a letter from Mr. Johnson informing me' that his son is unable to attend school in consequence of a thrashing you yesterday inflicted upon him. Is this a fact, Bates?” “N-n-no, sir!” quailed Bates. “I mev- er touch "im.” But Dr. Bigwig did not believe, and two minutes later Bates was asking for permission to stand up in class, the benches being of wood. On the following day Johnson re- turned, and Dr. Bigwig sought justifi- cation of his act before the whole | class. “Did you tell your father that Bates thrashed you?” he asked. “No, sIr,” piped the youth. The master’s countenance clouded. “But your father wrote to me, say- Ing that Bates did it!” he thundered. “I know ‘e did!” sniveled Johnson. “It were Billy Beauchamp did It, sir, but father couldn’t speel Beauchamp, S0 he wrote Bates.”—London Answers, His Desire to Reform. Discussing poverty on one occasion, the Dutch poet and economist Van Eeden said, “We want reform, and we ‘want it about as badly as a Dutch stu- -dent I knew in my youth. “This student’s chum said to him: “‘Look here, I'm tired of the life Pve been leading for the past two years. I'm going to reform. This morn- ing I shall attend a lecture.’ “My student, a confirmed idler, yawned, put down his pipe and an- swered: “Yes; it would be splendid to re- form, and yet the beer is very good here this morning, isn’t it? T tell you what we'll do. We'll let my dog Wil- helm decide whether we reform or not.’ “ ‘Wilhelm- decide! How will he do biag #‘Oh, 1t is very simple. We’ll tell the walter to bring a plece of sausage. We'll set the sausage before Wilhelm, and if he eats it we stay where we are. If he doesn’t, we reform and go to lectures.’ "—Washington_Star. A Telephone Opiate. The elder's wife was seriously fll, and the doctor advised rest and quiet. But the lady was very devoted- to church work and worried herself into hysteria because she could not attend services and hear her favorite pastor preach. ' “She must not leave the house,” ‘warned the doctor, “but you can easily arrange to have her hear the sermon by telephone.” The elder grasped the suggestion and made the necessary arrangements for transmitting the sermon into his wife’s room. At noon on the Sabbath the doctor called and asked, “How did it work?” “Fine,” declared the elder, rubbing his hands gleefully. “Ten minutes aft- er the sermon began she fell sound asléep.”—Philadelphia Ledger. His Criticism. Robert Louis Stevenson once took an eccentric acquaintance of his to hear Sir Charles Halle play the piano at St. James’ hall, London. Sir Charles was a musician of the most correct and severe British type, though a German by birth— After the concert was over they walked as far as the Marble arch. neither having spoken. Arrived there, the friend stopped and delivered him- | self thus: “The manner of the elderly statesman at the piano was somewhat austere and chilling.” And then they walked on. * Taking No Chances. A farmer who took much pride In the looks of his fattening pigs once purchased a pair from a neighbor. Upon delivery at the usual age of eight weeks they seemed to him rather small. Eying them dublously, he remarked dryly, “Guess I had better keep the cat shut up for a few days.” A Hard Stant. Mamma—Good gracious, What is the matter with Freddie Jones? Is the child baving a fit} Georgle—No, mamma. You know Fred- die stutters, and we bet be couldn’t say “altitudinosity” before Bobble ran twice nound the block.—Fuck. Georgle! The Servant Girl In Germany. In most-German households there ia no such thing as the strict division of labor insisted on here. Your cook will be delighted to make a blouse for you, and your nurse will turn out in the dining' room, while your chambermaid will take the child for an airing if you order it so. They are more human in their relation to their employers. The English servant fixes a gulf between herself and the most democratic mis- tress. The German brings her intimate Joys and sorrows to a good herrschaft and expects their sympathy. ‘When a girl has bad luck and en- gages with a bad herrschaft she is ‘worse off than in England because she Is more 1o the power of her employers and of the police than she would be here. She has to have a dienstbuch, an official book in which her age and personal appearance are registered. In this book her employers write her character. It Is under the control of the police and has to be shown to them when she leaves and when she enters a situation. It is hardly necessary to say that when a girl does anything seriously bad and her employers record it in the book the book gets “lost. Then the police interfere and make it extremely disagreeable for the girl. Restaurant Stories. “I don’t care for the vulgar type of restaurant story,” sald a New York ho- tel keeper, “I refer to that type where the guest shouts angrily to the waiter: “*‘Ugh, this steak is not fresh! What a horrible smell! Here, waiter, judge for yourself! “But, shaking his head, the walter points to the mext table and answers grimly: “‘Beg pardon, sir, you're quite wrong. It's the other gentleman’s fish? “Or the story of the man who com- plained about his planked shad, wind- ing up: “‘I hope you don’t think me unrea- sonable, waiter? “‘No, no, sir, the waiter answered. “You're the sixth person what has com- plained about that portion of shad.’ “On a somewhat higher plane are the meat stories. Thus a strange guest says: “ ‘Surely this isn’t a barber shop as well as a restaurant? I see a lot of razors lying about.’ “‘Oh, no, sir’ says the waiter. ‘Those are for the steak customers. Did you say steak, sir? ” Youthful Logie. Mrs. L, a young and inexperienced Sunday school teacher, was at times sorely perplexed how to answer the questions put to her by some of her unusually bright pupils, One day just after she had finished telling the chil- dren the story that Adam was the first man God created quiet reigned In the class room for several minutes. Sud- denly up jumped little Rosie and in a piping voice said, “Oh, teacher, you for- got to tell us whether God created Adam right away a man or a baby!” Embarrassed Mrs. L. looked up to the celling and then to the children for an Inspiration. Happily she quickly spied Betty’s little hand raised above the others eager to answer the question. “Teacher, I am surprised my sister Rosie should ask such a foolish ques- tlon. Why, God must have created Adam right away a big man, because if God had created him a baby he ‘would have had to have a mother to take care of him.” Thé 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 Solomon. Why, we are not even sure of the stature of George ‘Washington. It might be believed that Napoleon, Alexander the Great and Jay Gould were of the same size, three bumptious little chaps. And it is com- mon belief that Charlemagne, Erling the Bold, Frederick the Great, Robert Bruce, Sir William Wallace, General ‘Winfield Scott and Richard Coeur de Lion were all top notchers, “0Old Fuss and Feathers,” formed in the prodigal- ity of nature, leading in girth and weight—New York Press. ‘ This Day and Time. “Dis yer day an’ time,” sald Brother Williams, “is tob much fer-me.
