Pryor. an The man who had been keeplng his seat In a Lexington avenue car, the seats of which were well occupied by women, spoke at last to the woman hanging on to a strap and who had been eying him intently for some time, “I know 1 ought to get up and let you have my seat, madam,” he said, “but I'm pledged against that sort of thing. 1 have just joined the ‘Sit Still club,’ an organization we have formed in Harlem, and if 1 should violate the solemn obligation I took when 1 be- came a member of that body I should be expelled and held up to the execra- tion of all other members.” “That s all right, sir,” replied’ the woman. “You mustn't mind my look- ing at you so hard. 1 am a member of the ‘Stand and Stare club.’ " After which she continued to stand and stare at him in such a fierce man- ner that he finally got up, waved her into his seat and said, “I guess I'll re- sign from my club and join yours right now, madam.”—New York Press. A Throne and a North Wind. Long had Gustavus Vasa .sought to rouse his fellow countrymen, the Swedes, against the infamous Danish tyrant Christian, whose memory will always be linked with that of the “blood bath” of Stockholm. But the brave Gustavus found his compatriots cowardly and slow. An outlaw him- self, no veice was raised in the assem- bly in his faver. He called upon the people to fight, but they sat sullen around him. Suddenly a cold wind rose from the north, and an old coun- tryman cried, “God approves of the designs of Vasa, for a north wind is always a happy presage.” These sim- ple words acted like magic. The men flew to arms and prayed Gustavus to lead them against the Danes. In a few days he had collected an army large and brave enough to give battle to the formidable troops of the king of Den- mark. Victory was theirs from the first, and the capture of Stockholm in 15623 placed the crown of Sweden upon Vasa’s head.—Pearson’s Weekly. West Pointers on the Battlefield. One thing of which all West Pointers felt proud was the brotherly love and kindness shown by both sides to fel- low graduates when taken prisoners or when otherwise in distress. I have heard the story told of Fitzhugh Lee that on one occasion when scouting with a squadron of cavalry in the de- batable country between Fairfax Courthouse and Alexandria he cap- tured a picket of a similar commander under Tom Height and learned that the latter was taking breakfast in a farmhouse. Fitz went in alone, found Tom at table with his back to the door, 80 he was able to get up to him and slap him on the* back before saying, “I think, Tom, you-might have put out one picket.” They took breakfast to- gether, and then Fitz sent an escort to conduct him to the Federal lines and bring back his horse, having of. course first paroled him. This was to save him from Libby prison.—General S. W. Ferguson in Metropolitan Magazine. Champagne Corks. Champagne corks are made of the very finest Catalonia corkwood. When the tree of that wood is planted, thirty years must elapse before it becomes fit for the first stripping of the bark, and even then the cork is of no use, belng much too coarse. After eight years more a second crop arrives, but that again is of but poor quality, and efght years more, making forty-six years in all, must pass before the grower can reap any material benefit from the tree. Then, again, the great- est care Is necessary for the manufac- ture of the best champagne corks be- cause should they be defective in size and shape the quality of the wine will suffer. For that reason they are mot made by machinery, like the ordinary cork, but are cut by hand, as finer ‘work can be done that way.—Philadel- phia Ledger.

Perhaps no more ardent lover of plc- tures ever lived than Cardinal Mazarin, minister of the regency during the mi- nority of Louis XIV. Being told that he had but two months to live, he was soon after seen in his nightecap and dressing gown, tottering along the gal- lery, pointing to his pletures, exclaim- ing: “Must I quit all these? Look at that Correggi; this ‘Venus’ of Titian; that incomparable ‘Deluge’ of Caraceci! Farewell, dear pictures, that I have loved so dearly and that cost me so much!” Exaggerated. Among the begging letters recently recelved at the office of a benevolent soclety was one running thus: “This unfortunate young man is the only son of a widow who died child- less, and his earnings maintain his aged father and infant brothers, whose sole support he 1s.” The secretary of the society wrote on the margin of the epistle the following note: “The circumstances of the case are evidently exaggerated.”—London Tat- ler.

The Poor Hungry Fish. “Here is an interesting thing that fappened last summer to a friend and myself,” said a New Yorker, *“We had gone on a fishing trip in a rowboat, but it seemed that either all the fish were at another place or were not hun- gry. We decided if those fish were not hungry we were. We had taken our luncheon, as wise fishermen will, and in order to keep the bread as fresh as possible had left it in loaf form. My friend asked me to pass it to him, and in doing so the loaf of bread went overboard. We made out the best we could without the bread and later row od to anotier place to fan, On ous! way back we passed the place whnere W3 lost our bread. Then we saw the sight of our lives. On each side of the loaf of bread stood a big fish, and for as far as we could see there was a great line of small fish, We wondered what It was, and then the thought dawned on us—those fish had formed a “bread line” and the two large fish 'Were dealing out the bread. After that we didn’t have the heart to try to catch any of those poor, hungry fish.” They Mu-( Be Hardy, An official of the department of agrl- culture veferred at a dinner in Wash. fogton to fhe amateur florists who spring up In the suburbs every spring by thousands. “More florists perhaps than flowers spring up,” he sald.
