Joseph Medill of the Chicago Tribune was somewhat deaf, although his abil- Ity at times to hear what was said in an ordinary tone of voice was frequent- ly remarked. It is related of him that he dropped into the business depart- ment of the office one day to make an inquiry about something that had oc- curred to him, and a young man who had been in his employ only a few months undertook in a loud tome of voice to enlighten him. “What did you say?’ asked Mr. Me- dtll, putting his hand to his ear. The young man repeated the ques- tion in a still louder voice. “I can’t hear you,” sald the editor. “Oh, Thase yourself around the block, you old granny!” muttered the impa- Hent employee just above his breath, “I am not an old granny,” sald Mr, Medill, turning away, “and I shall not shase myself around the block.” [ The fresh young maa made imme- diate arrangements to say goodby to his job, but the great editor probably thought that the lesson he had re- ceived was, sufficlent and did not dis- turb him. ' A Famous London Tavern. — The Mermaid was the name of'a fa- mous London tavern frequented by noted lterary men and actors during the reign of Queen Elizabeth. All the wit and talent of the time assembled there for convivial enjoyment. Au- thors have made it the scene of great mind combats between such men as Shakespeare, Ben Johnson, Beaumont, Fletcher, Selden, Carew, Donne and others of reverential memory. It was the gathering place of the celebrated Mermaid club, the origin of which is ascribed to Sir Walter Raleigh. The Mermaid tavern was located in Bread street and was handily reached from three thoroughfares, so that it has been often referred to in various ways. The Mermaid in Bread street, the Mer- maid in Friday street and the Mermald in Cheap street were, however, all one and the same. It was the nearest to Bread street. The Mermaid was de- stroyed in the great London fire. There were other Mermald tayerns, one in but it is inferred that he is scanning | Cheapside and another in Cornhil, but the political horizon: and may 'gef actively into the fight. s they had no such associations as clung The Baptist Ladies’ Aid will meet | T. J. Welsh, president of the T. J.| Educated. 2 Mrs. 8. was in a Richmond hospital, and she was lonely, so welcomed the advent of a very black and very lan- guid maid who came in one morning to wipe up the floor. Some one new to talk to, 50 no time was lost. * “I have not seen you working around here before. Aren’t you.a new girl?”’ Edmonia willingly let the cloth slip back into the bucket and sat flat upon the floor before answering. “Yas’m, I's new. I's jest washin’ up de floor. But I don’t work. I's edji- kated.” “And where were you- educated?” was the next question. . “In a seminary.” Then, with a burst of confidence: “There was me an’ an- other girl workin' in a house. She was cook, an’ I was chambermaid, an’ we had great times about who would git de prize, but I beat” Then, after a pause, “She was easy to beat, ‘cause she got smothered to death with gas de night before de ’zaminations come off."—Cleveland Leader." A Pair of Poets. Hearlng a noise in the street before his house one morning, Robert Brown- ing, the poet, went to his window and saw a great crowd gazing at some Chinamen in gorgeous costumes who were just leaving their carriages to mount his steps. Presently they were announced as the Chinese minister at the court of St. James and his suit. A solemn presentation having taken place, Browning said to the interpreter, “May I ask to what I am indebted for the honor of his excellency’s visit?” The interpreter replied, “His excellen- cy is a poet in his own country.” Thereupon the two poets shook hands heartily. Browning then sald, “May I ask to what branch of poetry his ex- cellency devotes himself?' To which the interpreter answered, “His exeel- lency devotes himself to poetical enig- mas.” At this Browning, recognizing fully the comic element in the sltua- tion, extended his hand most cordially, saying: “His excellency is thrice wel- come. He is a brother indeed!” When the Sun Grows Cold. Dr, Fridjof Nansen predicts the fate of the earth in the far distant future, when the sun grows cold. The sim- ple, low organisms, he says, will prob- ably live longest, until even they dis- appear. Finally, he says, all water on the earth’s surface will freeze and the oceans will be transformed into ice to the bottom. Some time later the car bonic acid of the atmosphere will be- gin to fall on the surface of the earth in the form of snow. Sqme time after that the temperature on the surface will have reached about 330 degrees below zero F. New oceans will then be formed by the atmosphere being turned Into liquid, and the atmosphere of that future earth will be only hy- drogen and heltum. The sun will go through the same process. It will con- tinue in its way as a dark star through space, accompanied by the planets. Priority. The wagons of “the greatest show on earth” passed up the avenue at daybreak. Thelr incessant rumble soon awakened ten-year-old Billle and his five-year-old brother Robert. Thelr mother felgned sleep as the two white robed figures crept past her bed into the hall on the way to Investigate. Robert struggled manfully with the unaccus- tomed task of putting on his clothes, “Wait for me, Billie,” his mother heard him beg. “You'll get ahead of me.” “Get mother to help you,” counseled Blllte, who was having troubles of his own. Mother started to the rescue and then paused as she heard the voice of her younger, guarded, but anxious and insistent: “You ask her, Billle. You've known her longer than I have.”—Everybody's. Her Luck. By a strange cofncidence a muct married woman lost three husbands in succession through fatal accidents in the mine. Naturally her case excited wuch interest, and she had many sym- pathetic callers, to all of whom she made the same reply. “Ah, yes, It's very hard,” she sald “but in the midst of my .sorrow I've always had somethin’ to be thankfu! for.

TLIMBER OFFICE| Blindfold Buying The man who rushes blindly into the first yard he comes to when he buys lumber will never get round shouldered carrying the money he saves by such tactics. B Those who reason that all lumber is alike because it looks alike, have several more guesses coming. There's as much difference in lumber as there is in shoes or clothes, and you don't buy those with your eyes shut, do you? As lumber is supposed to last a long time, quality should be the first consideration in buying. ‘Your money talks here, of course, but what you get for your money, talks more yet, Our rule of quality first—then price—satisfaction always—doesn't leave any chance of blindfold lumber buying at this yard.
