One of the most profound remarks ever made by that profound philoso- pher, Thackeray, was when he passed two tubs of oysters side by side, and he saw one was labeled “1s. a dozen” and the other “1s. 3d. a dozen.” He ex- claimed, “How those oysters must hate each other!” ‘Well, “even an oyster may be crossed in love,” and Willlam Dean Howells has another tale to tell anent the psy- chology of the oyster. At one of the little suppers that the poet Longfellow gave to the brilliant Cambridge. circle James Russell Lowell paused with the pepper box poised above his plate of oysters to say whimsically, “It’s as- tonlshlng how these fellows love pep- ‘Dear me! You don’t say so!” ejacu- lated a nice, prosy old gentleman who used to sleep through the suppers. The temptation was too strong to be resist- ed, and Lowell was fairly launched Into an account of how a red pepper accldentally ‘dropped into a basket of oysters had been drawn out with half & dozen of the bivalves clinging to it when the ever gentle Longtellow inter- posed to save his matter of fact old friend. The Old Master. Mistress (to new servant)—I must Ampress upon you, when you go to the room, not to try to get-the dirt off ‘0ld. Master’ with & wet.rag, cloth onl; should study the names of past lord mayors of London. Besides one or two ‘| that are merely uncommon and did not belong to men of any distinction, such ‘as Sir Richard Spaa, mayor in there are some that deserve no- tHice also for the sake of those who bore them. There was Sir John Brugges in 1520, whose ancestor fought at Agin- when, curiously enough, the name had the more modern form of . There was Alderman Mica- Jah Perry in 1789, who laid the first stone of the Mansion House, and S8ir Benjamin Hamet, who was fined £1,000 in 1707 for refusing to act as mayor— positively a cheap way of getting out of it. The most aDDroprlately named lord mayor seems, however, to have been the cheerful Sir Robert Viner, who en- tertained Charles II. and drank the king’s health so often as to become un- duly merry. The king tactfully sought to retire, but Viner plucked him by the sleeve and vowed he should “stay and take the other bottle!” IL, never at a loss, complied, murmur- ing, “He that is drunk is as great as a king.”—St. James' Gazette, Awed by the Beau. ‘When Beau Brummel, the celebrated dandy, was, in consequence of his fallen fortunes, residing at Calais, he had occasion to visit Paris. Through the kindness of the consul at the for- mer place he was enabled to accom- pany a king’s messenger to the capital and thus travel free of expense. When the messenger returned, the consul was curious to know how he and his aris- tocratic companion had fraternized upon the road. “What kind of a trav- eling companion did you find Mr. Brummel?” asked he. “Oh, a very pleasant one, indeed, sir; very pleas- ant,” replied the messenger. “Ah! And what did he say?’ “Say, sir? Noth- ing! He slept the whole way.” “Slept the whole way! Do you call that be- ing pleasant? Perhaps he snored!” The messenger acknowledged that Brummel did so, but immediately, as if fearful of .casting an ‘improper re- flection upon so great a personage, he added, with great gravity, “Yet I can assure you, sir, Mr. Brummel snored very much like a gentleman!”—Argo- naut. The Flight of a Great Nebula. One of the most striking spectacles revealed by telescopes is that of the great nebula in Orion. In the com- plexity of its glowing streams, spirals and strangely shaped masses, inter- cepted by yawning black gaps and sprinkled over with stars arranged in suggestive groups and lines, it has few rivals in the heavens. The impres- slon of astonishment made by the sight of this nebula is heightened by knowl- edge of its enormous size. The entire solar system would appear as a tiny speck beside it. Yet this tremendous aggregation of nebulous clouds and starry swarms has been proved by the researches of the(astronomers of the Lick observatory to be flylng away from the earth and the sun at the rate of eleven miles in every second. But 80 vast is its distance that a hundred years reveal no visual effects of the great nebula’s swift retreat. If it were near by it would seem to become rap- idly smaller.—Chicago Record Herald. ‘What He Did Know. B8t. Thomas’ Episcopal church, in Fifth avenue, has under its jurisdic- tlon an east side chapel. One ¢f the features of the chapel is a gymnasium, in which boys are trained in all of the branches of physical culture. Some of the boys are quicker in this sért of tralning than they are in the more polite talk of the west side boys. The rector of 8t. Thomas’, the Rev. Dr. Stires, visits the chapel fregfent: ly and is fond of talking with| the lads about their work. He said to one little fellow who_hails from near| the Bast river: “Well, my son, they tell me you won quite a victory in your last concest with. the boys of a rival school.” “I don’t know ’bout that, but w'en we went up ag'in dat bunch from St. Pat’s we put it all over ’em, and dey alr’t never peeped since.’—New York Sun. The Ugliest Beast. Probably the ugliest beast in the world is a monkey, a grewsome look- .Ing animal called the bearded saki. This is so utterly grotesque a beast that it would scarcely be safe to let a child or nervous person see it. The ugliness is not of an amusing kind, but of an evil, sinister nature. The beast has a sort of beard and a countenance unlike anything else in shape and lines. The monkey itself 18 not partic- ularly savage, but is so hideous that the natives of its country, South Amer- {ca, say that no beast of prey, however hungry, will tackle it. Even a hungry Jaguar will starve in a cageful of sakis. ed a Chance. “But, Tommy,” said his mother, “you asked for two cakes and I gave them to you. Aren’t you satisfied?” “No, I ain’t,”” growled Tommy. “You was 80 easy I'm kickin’ meself now ’cause I didn’t ask fur four.’—Phila- delphia Press. Driven to Drink. Artist—My next picture at the acad: emy will be entitled “Driven to Drink.” His Friend—Ah, some powerful por- trayal of baffled passion, I suppose? Artist—Oh, no; it's a horse approach- ing a water trough! No Heredity About It. Gerald—My father was an old salt. Geraldine—That’s funny. You are & young fresh. A covetous man makes no friends.— Cingalese Proverb. At the End of the Voyage. Jonah disembarked. “The ouly trip I don't have to tip the ‘stoward,” he exclaimed. Therewith he regarded the whale Ralf approvingly.—New York Sun. < Different Points of View. “It's ha¥d to be poor,” sighed the ug.p-ulmm. t's queer,” replied the mgged optimist. “I always found it easy How Could She Do It? § The homely forms of speech used by fhe country people with whom little Baith and her mother boarded last summer were frequently very puzzling to the child. One evening the farmer’s wife, in talking for a few minutes with Edlth’s mother, remarked that, as she was very tired that night, she would “go to roost with the chickens.” When Edith’s bedtime arrived a Ht- tle later the youngster was nowhere to be found. . After considerable search she was discovered sltting on a large stone near the chicken house, quletly watching the fowl as they came in one by one. “Edith,” called her mother, “what are you doing there? I've been look- ing for you everywhere; it’s time to go to bed.” “I know, mother,” was the reply, “but they’re nearly all in now, so she’ll e here soon, I guess.” “Who are in and who will be there? Charles | ‘What on earth are you talking about, child?” asked the mystified mother, “Why,” explained Edith, rather im- patiently, “you know Mrs. — said she ‘was going to roost with the chickens tonight, and I'm walting to see how she does it.” Eating Test For Cooks, In a certain employment agency ten cooks out of a job waited one after- noon last week for a situation to turn up. Presently a well gowned woman ‘who was short of servants applied at the desk for the desired help. The manager referred her to the ten cooks, The woman interviewed each of them in turn with unsatisfactory results. “Not one of them,” she explained to the manager of the agency, “likes to eat the things that we like.” “But what difference’ does that make?” asked the manager. “They are no doubt good girls for all that.” “Yet they wouldn’t suit me,” the wo- man replied decisively. “My family have very pronounced tastes in cook- ery, and my experience has taught me that only a cook who likes the same dishes that we like can prepare them satisfactorily. That is a matter of sim- ple common sense. It stands to reason that any dish a cook likes will turn out better than one she doesn’t like; consequently I will do the work my- self till I find a girl whose tastes agree with ours.”--Philadelphia Ledger. Nature and the Barnacle. In the barnacle we have a unique and wonderful case of a creature that can afford as age comes on to dispense with the eyesight that was so useful in youth. For the young and old barnacle are as different one from the other as fishes from seaweed. In the heyday of life the barnacle swims about the sea, seeking its food with the aid of its eyes and generally leading a roaming existence. Later in life, how- ever, It grows tired of this aimless ‘wandering and settles down to worry ships’ captains by attaching itself to the keel of their craft and defying the much advertised powers of various pre: ventive paints. Once, then, the barna- cle has become a fixture, whether on ships or sharks, its eyesight Is of no more use. It cannot seek its food, and it cannot shun its foes, for it never more Will move. Therefore its eyes become superfluous and, according to nature’s invariable rule in such cases, disappear. Lived to Fight Another Day. Frederick the Great simply lost his head at Molwitz, his first battle. Had he not been a king it is safe to say that he would have been shot at the mnext sunrise. In the heat of the carnage he got an idea that the army under his command was being over- ‘whelmed, so he put the spurs to his horse and dashed headlong among his soldiers. He rode many miles before he stopped in his wild flight. Late at night he was discovered hiding in an old mill, awaiting, as he thought, cap- ture by the enemy. Then he discov- ered that the army he deserted had won the battle. As Frederick was a prince, everybody tried to forget the incident just as quickly as possible, and after that, when the king went to ‘war, he was just as brave as any oth- er soldler. On the Verge of Prostration. “What else have you got?’ asked Cholly, looking languidly over the bill of fare for something to tempt his jad- ed appetite. “Well,” replied the waitress, have hot biscuits too.” “That’ll do,” sald Cholly, resting his intellect by tossing the bill of fare aside. “Bring me a hot biscuit stew.” —Chicago Tribune. “we Rebuttal Testimony.
