There was just one less than there was disciples.” “Why, how do you know that? It is nowhere stated how many Pharisees there were.” “I thought everybody knew it,” said Bobby.. “The Bible says, ‘Beware of the ’leven of the Pharisees,’ doesn’t it?” —Youth’s Companion, e ———— g -_— O Saw Things.

Napoleon was pacing up and down one day before his quarters, planning probably some new scheme of con- quest. He dropped his glove, and a common soldier happening along pick- ed it up and returned it to him. “Thank you, captain,” said the em- peror absentmindedly, not thinking that the man was only a private. “Of which company, sire?” put in the soldier promptly, taking Napoleon at his word. “Come to me tonight and you shall receive your commission,” said the great commander. He knew that that common soldier had the presence of mind necessary to Monkeys Like Scrapping. “Monkey s are In,a class by them- selves,” said the circus man. “If ong of them has red hair he is sure to be a dandy scrapper. The best fighter is. 'always the leader. They hang togeth- er and bow and scrape before the boss. just like a good many people. Mon- keys with red faces and flat heads will whip the life out of those smaller than they are, but will run like the wind when it comes to an even break. A monkey riot is a funny spectacle. Even. in the same cage you will find groups- herded together as if there was soiie- class distinction and the lines were drawn tightly. If two of the big ones: come together In a row the others gen- erally stand off and let them have it out, but if any of the little ones get to scrapping then the father and mother are apt to mix in, and the nexj step is a general row. We separate them by turning on the hose and punish them by locking up the den so that they can- not get any peanuts from the crowd and hold back their meals. This plan puts them on their good behavior for awhile at least. The monkey likes to eat and likes to be noticed.” Slightly Mixed. T They had just set up househeepmg and were working on the plan of econ- omy. The bathtub needed a coat of varnish. Ie promised to aftend to it if she would order the varnish. “You'll find the varnish in the closet with the groceries, dear,” she said & day or so later, “and the can opener in the knife drawer.” He opened the can and, according to his contract, applied the coat of varnish and then left it to dry. The soup for dinner that day had %o be abandoned, for somehow it pos- sessed a peculiar paint shop odor that was nauseating. After dinner he took her to inspect his work on the ball- tab. Now that it had dried it had a certain unnatural appearance. The top and sides were streaked, and here and there little lumps clung to it. “The man said that was the best varnish,” she explained, taking up the can of varnish for an examination, “but—why, dear, you have varnished the bathtub with the ox tail soup!” “Then it was the varnish we ate, dear,” he added, horror stricken. — Lippincott’s. A Model Hotel “Boots.” It was in a Dublin hotel, and as T ‘closed the bedroom door, says a writer in the Manchester Guardian, I noticed that the end of one of my boot laces i was inside the room, the boot to whick it was attached having been placed as usual outside. When I awoke next | morning the boot lace end was still there, and I opened the door expectinz to find that the boots had not beer cleaned, but I was wrong. A very careful hotel servant, a very model among “boots,” had found the lace tightly gripped by the door and rather than disturb me had carefully removed i it from the lace holes and ecarried away the boot. Presently I heard a quiet noise outside the door. The model boots had brought my boots back again and was industriously re- lacing that one which he had unlaced. Cheese In the Middle Ages. Cheese must have been a rather dear or scarce article of food in 1502, for it is recorded in the “Black Books” of the Honorable Society of Lincoin's Ipa that at Easter term, 1502, it was “agreed by the governors and bench- ers this term that if any one of the so- clety shall hLereafter cut cheese im- moderately at the time of dinner or supper or shall give cheese to any servant or to any other or shall carry it away from the table at any time he shall pay 4 pence for each offense. The butlers of the society shall pre- sent such defaulters weekly under pahn of expulsion from office.”—Law Times. Her Test. “When a young man proposes you should always be careful and test his 1ove,” cautioned the conservative chap- eron. “But I go one better, auntie,” twit- tered the pretty girl. “Do you see this tiny bottle?” “Yes. Does it contain perfume?” “No; it coutaius acid. T test the en- gagement ring.” Not Very Funny. “] did my best to be entertaining,” said the young man in a voice of sor- TowW. “Did you succeed?” “'m afraid not. I recited Hamlet's soliloquy. She looked at me reproach- fully for several seconds and then ex- { claimed, “I don’t think that's very funny!”’—London Telegraph. i His Conscience. “He's forever prating about what his conscience tells him. What does his conscience tell him, anyway?” “Apparently it usually tells him what awful sinners his neighbors are.— Catholic Standard and Times. Where She Gets Her Ideal.
