Willie appeared one day with a fine apple. “‘I'll give you thls apple,’ he said to a little girl, ‘for twenty kis¥es.’ “The little girl was amazed. That was_not at all like Willie. -Neverthe- less she consented, “‘Shut your eyes,’ said Willle. ‘Sit down here and shut your eyes. And, mind you, if you open them. the bar- galn is off.’ “The little girl obeyed, and-slowly, very slowly, the kisses began to fall upon her lips. One, two, three, four (a long pause), five, slx (another long pause), seven (pause), eight, nine, ten (intolerable pause). *‘Oh, Willie, hurry? “‘I'm.not Willle, “The little girl opened her eyes in astonishment and-drew back her pretty mouth from the advancing lips of a strange boy, a very common, shabby sort of boy, whom she had never seen before. “‘Why, where’s Willie?'.she cried. “‘He's down the street’ was the re- ply, ‘sellin’ yer kisses for two apples aplece. Better shut yer eyes again. The next three boys is terrible ugly.’” --S8t. Louis Republic. On the Verge. He considered It a parental duty to see that his daughter kept only the very best marriageable company. “Mary,” said her father, “you have been going with that Mitchell fellow for more than a year now. This court- ship must come to a termination.” “Oh, pa, how can you talk so? He 1s, oh, .80 sweet and nice!” “Ah!” And the fond father arched his eyebrows. “Sweet and nice, eh? Has he proposed?”’ X “Well, pa, not exactly.” And the girl hung her head and fingered the drapery of her dress. “He hasn’t-ex- actly proposed; but, then, last evening, when we were out walking, we passed by a nice little house, and he said, ‘That’s the kind of cottage I am. going to live in some day,’ and I sald ‘Yes,” and then he glanced at-me and squeezed my band, Then, just as we got by, 1 glanced back at the cottage, and—and I squeezed his hand, pa.” “Oh, ah, I see! Well, we'll try. him another week or two.” — London Tit- Bits. > His Feelings Were Hurt. 3 It Is strange how unreasonable some people are In business—how unreason: able and how Inconsiderate of the feel- Ings of others. As an example, there i the case of ‘a fidelity company in New York which suddenly and arbitrarily canceled the-bond it had issued for a man attached in a fiduclary capacity to an important concern. It was the most natural thing in the world for the man to display some feeling and to demand to know the reason for such actlon. And the inconsiderate head of the bonding company wrote him to this effect: “Because you were convicted of for- gery under another name in the year —— and served a term in the state prison at — The reclpient of the mnote felt so nurt that he couldn’t reply. He still 18 silent.—New York Globe. A Singer's Avarice, We hear a great deal about the enor- mous. salaries paid to famous. prima donnas nowadays, and we also .hear a great deal about thelr. charity and good nature. In the reign of Queen .Anne one of the most-celebrated singers was Mrs. Tofts; who had a veritable craze for money making as well as a great deal of personal conceit. . Pope, who never spared any persons or ohjects that he satirized, wrote an epigram that must have greatly annoyed the avaricious singer: So bright is thy beauty, so chumlng thy son; Asshadidrawn both-the beasts anditheir Orpheus along, But such Is thy avarice and such is thy pride That the beasts must have starved and the 'poet-have dled. —London Standard: Chamois:Maker Is a ‘Magician.

The hours dragged on, evening ar- rived, and the old gentleman obstinate- ly held.out. The- other jurors wearily arranged themselves to make a night of it. From time to time the old gentle- man would contemplatively suck the head of the cane. Finally he fell asleep, and the cane dropped.heavily to the floor. Then one. of the jurymen plcked it up and found, to his surprise, that it was nearly tull of Irish whisky. The eleven passed the cane round, relleved It of its con- tents and then awakened its slumber- Ing owner: Slowly he lifted the cane to his ‘mouth, looked at his watch and then arose with the announcement, “Boys, I'm afther changin’ me moind.” —London Telegraph, Navel Oranges. 2 Posstbly not every one has heard‘the| ‘anecdote about the dear old mother whose son bad been. promoted to be first lleutenant {n the nayy. He sent ber a box of:fine mavel oranges from Florida and this brief note: 5 Dear Mother—Just. a handful of navel oranges, something you'will'find especial. ly choice. Devotedly, - Speaking of Jack to some guests at the house a few nights later as ‘they were enjoying the oranges, she remark- { |} ed: “Just the very best boy in all the world, dear, dear Jack.

Still it sounds all the same when you speak it”—New York Press, A Remariable ‘Sulolde. A man who had visited ‘Paris ‘was telling of an extraordinary sufcide he bad heard of in that gay city. “He was a Frenchman, who was nothing it not original,” -said the teller of the tale, “and even when he grew despond- ent he planned his death is a most original fashion. ‘He locked the door) of his room in the Rue Nitot and, re- moving. the weights of the window cord, fastened them ‘to the window: itself, He ad@ed to the weight of the window by attaching:six fiatirons. On the sill he adjusted a large trlangular bread knife, such as is used by chefs, and.made ready a-small balloon, capa- ble of lifting fifty pounds. The in- genious Frenchman then put his head| out of the window after attaching the| balloon to his neck and by releasing the clamp that held the window cut his. head off completely with the impro- vised guillotine. The :decapitated body was @iscovered several days later, but it was not until the balloon and the head were found a week later in the fleld of a peasant, eighteen miles from Parls, that the method of suicide was really known.” Inheritance: of the Blind, The blind chiid—the deaf blind chiid —has inherited the mind of seeing and hearing ancestors, a mind measured to five senses. Therefore he must be in- fluenced, even if it be unknown to him- self, by the light, color, song, which have been transmitted through the language he is taught, for the cham- bers of the mind are ready to recelve that Jlanguage. The brain of the race 1s so: permeated with color that it dyes even the speech of the blind, Every object I.think of is stained with the hue that belongs to it by association and memory. The experience of the deaf blind person in a world of seeing, hearing people Is like that of a sailor on an island where the inhabitants speak a language unknown to him, ‘whose life is unlike that.he has lived. He 18 one; they are many. There i8 no chance of compromise. He must learn to see with their eyes, to hear with thelr ears, to think their thoughts, to follow their ideals.—Helen Keller in Century. Sheridan's:Star Actor. ‘When Sheridan was a manager he even indulged in such catering to the public taste as offering to the public'a dog plece by Reynolds, entitled “The Caravan; or, The Driver and the Dog.” Of its first presentation It 1s recorded that Sherldan after witnessing the per- formance 'suddenly -entered the green- room, shouting: “YWhere is he? Where 18 my guardian angel?” Presuming he meant to congratulate the author, Reynolds replied, “Here Iam!” “Pooh, replied Sheridan, “I don’t mean you; I mean the dog.” Later one Dignum, who played in the piece, approached Sheridan one night with woeful counte- nance, saying: “Sir, there 18 no guard- ing against illness. It is truly lamenta- ble to stop the run of a successful play like this, but really”— “Really what?” cried Sheridan, interrupting him. “I am so unwell that I cannot go on longer than tonight.” ““You!” exclaimed Sheridan. “My good fellow, you terri- fied ‘me. I thought you were going to say the dog was 11" Old. Maps-of Louisiana. An interesting exhibit in the Lou- islana State museum'is a collection of } old maps that show the state of Lou- Islana extendlng ‘from ‘Canada, which was then called New France, on-the north to ‘the gulf of Mexico on the south and from: Virginia and Carolina on the east to the Paclfic on the west, These maps were printed in Italy and Holland and France and were evident- ly largely works of fancy and imagina- tion on the part of the.geographers, as they depict mountaln ranges where none exists and lakes and rivers dis- tributed around-in places where they are not found today. One of -the most charming of these maps represents the Mississippl river as making a graceful turn along what is now the roadbed of the Louisville and Nashville rallroad and emptying Into the:gulf in Florida. Along & strip of this country about ‘where English Lookout and peaceful Bay St. Louis are located 1s a fear- some spot marked as the land of the man eaters.—New Orleans Picayune. The Plant. There is a strange wild plant In Gua- deloupe called the “life plant” If a leaf be broken off and pinned by the stem to the wall of a warm room, each of the angles between the curves of the leaf murgin soon throws out-a number of very white tentacles, or roots, and soon a tiny new plant begins to sprout and.in thecourse of a week or two at- tains a height of two or three Inches. ‘When the old leaf shrivels, the.new plant Is cut of and planted. When carefully culivated, the life plant pro- duces curious red and yellow blossoms. As a plant freak- it certainly is as in- teresting as ithe everlasting plant of Mexico. A Coveted Picture. Some years ago a western man en- tered J. G. Brown’s studio and seemed to. gain satisfaction in finding its fa- millar features unchanged. He told the artist that in his boyhood he had ‘worked in the streets of New York and, with others of his class, had served as a model for one of the pictures. of street boys, He had gome west and had prospered and now had returned with a desire to become the owner of the group picture in which he and some of his boylsh cronies appeared. He wanted it as a reminder of the struggles .of his boyhood. He looked back on those days as belng quite as happy as any he had ever known. The plcture, says W. Howard Standish, dis- cussing J. G. Brown, a painter-of hum- ble folk, had long .ago-been sold, and, although the would be: purchaser offer- ed to glve his check for $25,000 for the work, the artist was. unable to supply any clew to its whereabouts.—New ‘Broadway Magazine. Why Go to Bed? It seems to me we make a mistake in ger:lcflbmg special hours for going to and for getting up. Why should we thus gorge ourselves with slumber? ‘Why should we not follow the example of the dog and take an occasional nap when we have. nothing better to do? ‘Why should we:go to:bed when we don’t feel sleepy? Why should we not take forty winks when inclined there- to? It strikes me there is too much method .and -regularity about our som- niferous. arrangements. — Ashby-Sterry in London Graphic. To His Benefit. A Tennessee congressman enjoys telling a story of a darky in his dis- trict ' who in a way is something of a philosopher. Some one was saying to Mose one day: “You’re always in trouble, Mose. ‘Why can’t.you try to do better? You’re a likely sort of darky, and you could get.along very-well if only you'd behave yourself—keep a ‘steady jJob Instead of drinking bad whisky and getting your- self behind the bars half the time.” “Excuse.me,-boss,” sald Mose, with a grin, “but it looks to me like I makes more ‘money this 'way. When I works bard I gets §7 a month and my board: ‘When 1 gets-arrested the jedge he says to me that it will be $10 or thirty days.
