The sixteenth century is that in which the walking stick became not merely a useful implement, but an ar- ticle of fashion, dignity and luxury. In the seventeenth century it was gol headed and made of rare woods. It ‘was a slgn of leadership, For a long perlod there was little variety among Englishmen in the ma- terial used for the majority of walking sticks. The “onken towel” as it was pleasantly termed when an enemy was to be “rubbed down,” shared popular- Ity with the crab tree cudgel, which, among rural folk especlally, was much valued and classic from the conflict in “Hudibras,” when— With many o stiff thwack, many a bang, Hard crab tree on old iron rang. Classie, too, s that stout oakean stick which sturdy Dr. Johnson, who, like Knox, “never feared the face of living man,” provided himself with when he ‘went to the pit of the little theater in the Haymarket in full view of Foote, who had announced his intention of “taking him off” on the stage, an In- tention which in view of the stick he did not carry into effect.—Gentleman’s ‘Magazine. Linked Eyebrows. It is popularly belleved that If one’s eyebrows mect it indicates deceit. Charles Kingsley indorses this bellef, but Tennyson has other ideas and poetically speaks of “married brows.” In Turkey meecting eyebrows are greatly admired, and the women use artificlal means to bring the brows to this condition, and if art cannot In- duce thin eyebrows to grow they make up by drawing a black line with paste. It would appear that the Greeks ad- mired brows which almost met, and the fashionable Inhabitants of Rome not only approved of them, but re- sorted to pigments to make up the lack which sometimes existed. Some proverbs state that the person whose eyebrows meet will always have good luck, while others state ex- actly the reverse. The Chinese say that “people whose eyebrows meet can never hope to attain to the aig- nity of a minister or state,” and in Greeco of today the man whase brows meet is sald to be a vamplire, while in’ Denmark and Germany it is sald he 18 a werewolf.—London Standard. A Rhymed Wedding. According to the Mexico Ledger, John Stoble, a Wellston magistrate, united a negro couple with this cere- mony: Jim, will you take Bet Without any regret To love and to cherlsh Till one of you perish And is lnid under the sod, 8o help. you God? Jim having given the usual affirma- tive answer, Judge Stoble turned to Bet: Bet, will you take Jim And qling to him, Both out and in, Through thick and thin, Holding him to your heart, Till death do you part? Bet modestly acquiesced, and the mnewly married couple were dismissed with this benediction: | Through life's alternative joy and strife 1 now pronounce you man and wife. Go up life's hill till you get to the. level And salute your bride, you dusky devil! Made Over Prescriptions. “There is onc loss sustalned by drug- gists that very few people know about,” sald the experienced clerk. “That is in the prescriptions that have to be made over, the same as clerks, stenographers, writers and artists, no matter how painstaking, frequently have to do their work over. The most careful drug clerk in existence Is bound to make mistakes sometimes in meas- uring and mixing. He may pour in too much of some kind of liquid or sift in too much of a certaln powder. In most cases the overdose would not real- ly affect the value of the medicine, but the conscientious clerk isn’t going to take any chances on murdering any- body, so he throws away the whole’| mixture and makes up another pre- seription.”—New York Globe. History In July. In at least four countries perhaps the most important event in thelr histories was recorded in July—namely, the es- tablishment of thelr independence. In our own history we have the memora- ble Fourth of July, while the patriotic efforts of the liberator Simon Bolivar for the Independence of Venezuela ‘were consummated on July 5, Colombia ridding herself of the Spanish yoke on July 20. Then there is France, with her July 14, marking the date when the suffering French people stormed the famed and fearsome Bastille. The Spanish forces at Santago, Cuba, ca- pitulated on July 16. At His Expense. She—Jack told me that that hospital was bullt entirely at his expense, Is it possible? He—Well, Jack’s uncle cut him off with a hundred dollars and left the rest of his money to bufld the hospital. The God of Murderers. In a certain motntain village called Laltuk, on the northwest frontler of Burma, 1s a sacred pool, in which is sald to live a nat—{. e, a demon— called Shearpanlal, who is the guard- lan spirit of murderers. When a mur- der 1s committed anywhere In these hills, the water of this pool is reported to turn blood red. Now, when this happens it 1s a warn- ing sign to the villagers, who are the wardens of the pool, to be on their guard lest the murderer, whoever he may be and from whatever village he may come unobserved, succeed In reaching the pool, for the Chin law or custom 1s that if a murderer manages to elude the “avengers of blood” (who are usually some near blood relatives of the victim) and the vigilance of the guardians of the pool and succeeds in gaining it and washes his hands in its blood red water, which as soon as this occurs resumes its usual appearance, testifying that the god of murder is appeased, he is absolved from his blood gulltiness and is thereafter a free man, and no one may henceforth molest him. On the other hand, if he were over- taken by his pursuers or were he pre- vented by the village guardians from reaching the pool he would speedily pay the penalty of his crime with his life.—London Answers. Proper Way to Ride. “The fatigue of a long journey of which persons often complaln,” sald an experienced traveler, “is quite un- necessary and comes from an uncon- sclous effort to carry the train Instead of letting the traln carry us. This I8 in resisting the motion instead of re- laxing and ylelding to it. In a rall- road car one should always rest the feet on the rall of the seat in front, if such Is provided, as to keep the feet off the floor lessens the vibration that is conveyed to the body and prevents just that much strain. In a Pullman, where foot rests are not usually pro- vided, a bag will do as well for a footstool if nothing else is to be had. ‘The body, while you are sitting in a car, should be as completely relaxed as possible. Until one attempts this relaxation on a railroad car it Is not noticed how tense Is the effort to re- sist the motion, all of which Is in ai- rect accordance with modern physical culture, which has discovered that true repose goes further than mere nonaction.” It Worked All Right. One day a barber’s shop in Liverpool had but one empty chair. A man wear- ing a very big hat and walking with a great deal of swagger, entered, hung his hat on a peg and then, drawing a revolver, turned to the idle man and sald: “I want a shave—just a common shave. I want no talk. Don't ask me if I want my hair cut or a sham- poo. Don't speak of the weather or politles. If you speak to me, I'll shoot.” He took the chair, held the revolver across his legs and was shaved with promptness and dispatch. ‘When he got up he returned the shooter to his pocket, put on his hat and after a broad chuckle to the cashler sald: “That’s the way to keep a barber quiet. Ile didn't utter a word.” *“No, sir; he couldn't.” “Couldn't?” “No, sir; he's deaf and dumb.”—Liv- erpool Mercury. Weary Widowhcod. The death of the husland not only blights the life of a Bengali widow, but makes the rest of her existence a state of unmitigated misery and prl- vations. She Is required to fast on every eleventh day of the moon, when she Is debarred from all sorts of food and drink for twenty-four hours. Her sufferings from thirst on hot days of summer are extremely painful, but she must go through them. The widow must live on one meal a day and eschew meat and fish. She must re- nounce ornaments and all sorts of lux- urles. The idea of such a state of misery of his widow keeps a man from hazardous enterprises, not be- cause he is afrald to dle, but because his death means so much misery to his wife.—East Indian Mirror. Naming the Picture. The artist was of the impressfonist school. He had just given the last touches to n purple and blue canvas when his wife came Into the studlo. “My dear,” said he, “this Is the land- scape I wanted you to suggest a title for.” “Why not call It ‘Home? ” she said after a long look. “‘Home? Why?” “Because there’s no place like it she replied meekly.—Glasgow Times. The Same Medicine. “Doctor, do you remember three years ago that you predicted positively that I would be a dead man in six weeks?” “Why, yes, I"— “Well, I've got a friend in the next room who is despondent about him- self. Just tell him there is no hope for bim, will you?”" Betting In the Nursery. “Mamma,” said her boy, “I Just made a bet.” “What was it?” she asked. “I bet Billy my cap agalnst two shoe buttons that you'd give me a penny to get some apples with. You don't want me to lose my cap, do you?”’ He got the penny.—Philadelphia In- quirer. A Vegetarian. First Deacon—Our new pastor must be a vegetarian. Second Deacon—Why do you think 80? First Deacon—There doesn’t seem to be any meat in his sermons.—Phila- delphia Fedger. How's This?
