The Tempter Won. When the late Baron Nordenskjold {vas at Ceylon on the way home from his journey along the northern coast of Siberia he received a telegram from the Russian government asking him whether he would accept from the czar a certain decoration as an appre~ ciation of his services to Russia. ¥at many days the famous explorer way- ered, as he was a member of Bjar. sterne Bjornson’s Anti-decoration club, whose members were solemnly pledged never to accept any decoration from anybody: Nordenskjold, however, could not resist the temptation, so he replied to the telegram in the affirmative. It is not hard to imagine his disappoint. ment when, upon reaching home, a friend of his, a high official, told him the fotlowing: “The Russian govern- ment was well aware of your antago- nistic views in regard to decorations and had, therefore, placed in readiness 800,000 rubles to be paid you in: the event of your refusing to accept the insignia, but before paying that sum they wanted to try your firmness. Rus- sla is certainly grateful to you for your failure to live up to your pledge.” Death Was a Live One. While on the way to the race track in New Orleans one day several winters ago an undertaker named Mr. Dooley passed a funeral procession on its way to the cemetery. Dooley had a friend with bhim, another Irishman, who ex- claimed, “Sure, death always wins.” There happened to be a horse entered that day named Death, and he won ‘with ridiculous ease, Dooley winning a good bet on him. Dooley told all his friends of the incident, and they all went out to the course the next time Death was entered. He won every time he started for thirteen races. It was near getaway day, when every one was packing up ready to take the last train for New York. The horse was sold that afternoon at an auction sale, and the buyer was Mr. Dooley. He hitched him a month later to a hearse, and the horse became fright- ened and ran away and was not stop- ped until the graveyard was reached. After the burial Dooley had the horse shot and butied near the cemetery. “You're a dead one now, Death,” said Dooley, “but a live one in those thir- teen races.”’—Baltimore American. The Fashion of the House. A servant girl happened to be en- gaged at a farwbouse where the mis- tress was known to have a hasty tem- per. On the first Saturday night the girl was at the farmhouse she was told by the mistress to clean the boots ready for Sunday. The mistress on coming into the kitchen later on saw that the girl had cleaned her own boots first. So she took them up and threw them into a tub of water that was standing by and bounced out of the kitchen. The girl said nothing, but when she had cleaned the other boots she threw them also into the water. “Whatever possessed you to do-that, girl?” asked the mistress on coming again in the kitchen. The girl simply replied: “Well, ma’am, please ma’am, I thought it was the fashion of the house, ma’am!”"—London Tit-Bits. Saved by Her Voice. ‘When traveling to Paris with some other ladies on one occasion Mme. Grisi had a thrilling adventure. At a small wayside station a man entered the carriage, and it soon became evi- dent from his threatening gestures and ecceutric behavior that he was a dangerous lunatic. Though her com- panions were panic stricken, Mme. Grisi retained complete presence of mind and with the utmost composure began to sing. At once the maniac was quiet. His whole attention was riveted on that magnificent voice, and he remained the most appreciative of listeners until the train reached the next station, where he was secured. It transpired subsequently that he was a maniac with homicidal tendencies who had escaped from an asylum. “Peddler’s Acre.” Lambeth *“0ld” church has numer- ous historic monuments, and in one of the windows is the full length figure of a peddler with his pack, staff and dog. This is supposed to represent the unknown person who presented “Peddler’s acre” to the parish upon condition that his portrait and that of his beloved canine companion should be preserved in the church and that his dog should be buried in conse- crated ground.—London Saturday Re- view. A Jolt. A middle aged matron addressed a middle aged woman who sat mext to her in the street car, whom she thought she recognized as an ac- quaintance of her girlhood. “Pardon me,” she said, “but wasn’t your maiden name Blank?’ “It is,” was the icy reply.—New York Sun. Surely Not. Mariner (relating some of his active service adventures)—An’ me an' my mates was lost in the virgin forest— virgin, so to speak, because the hand- of man had never before set foot there. Good Luck. Mr. Juggins—A black cat came to our back fence last night. Mrs. Jug- gins—Did it bring you good luck? Mr. Juggins—That’s what it did. T hit it the very first time I fired. Heor Pet Name. Judge—What is your name? Young ‘Wife—Caroline Augusta Emma. Judge —And how are you generally called? Young Wife (bashfully)—My sweet ducky. Dead as a Doornail. The phrase “dead as a doornall” originated in this way. In early days. when door knockers were common, the plate upon which-the knocker struck was sometimes called a nail. In the course of years it was, struck so often that all life was supposed to be knocked out of it; therefore when It became necessary to refer to anything: hopelessly lifeless it was merely an emphatic expression to say that it was “as dead as a doornail.”—Home Notes. - Different From & Mountain. A certain Philadelphian who is at once a mir'ster of the gospel and a registercd physiciaa had an amusing experjence in his attempt to corner a Christian Scientist. Every time they met this - Scientist took occasion to scoft at medical science and to dwell upon the wonders that could be per~ forrl tarongh falth. “You are convinced that through faith you can do anything.” said the medical man one day. “Yes,” he replied; “faith will move mountains.” ‘A week later he was in the doctor’s office with a swollen jaw, due to tooth- ache. “What, you here?” the doctor ex- claimed, with feigned astonishment. “Oh, doctor,” he said, “1 have suf- fered agony all through the night. 1 simply can’t stand this pain any longer!” “Have you tried faith?” the physi- cian asked him. “You know you told me faith could move mountains.” “But this is a cavity, doctor.” Pleasing the Sultan. Kaid Belton told the following story, which illustrates exactly the attitude of the sultan of -Morocco toward the French: One day the sultan asked a lady, the wife of his dentist, to play one of the planos that were in the room of the palace. She played several pieces,-one of them at length catching the sultan's fancy, whereupon the following little dlalogue took place: Sultan — That piece is very nice. ‘What is it called? Dentist—It is the “March on Cadiz.” It was written to commemorate the Spaniards driving the French out of Spain. Sultan—What! Spain? Dentist—Yes. Sultan—How many of them? ‘Dentist—About 200.000. Suitan (in a surprised tone)—And the Spaniards drove them out? Dentist—Yes, every one of them, There was a slight pause while the sultan was thinking hard, and then: Sultan (quietly)—Play it again. ‘Were the French in His Interference. The twists and turns taken by fak- ing horse dealers to get out of their bad- bargains are proverbial. A little incident lllustrative of the tribe took place recently at a stable on North Broad street, where an irresponsible settler -had succeeded in palming off a defective horse on, a too easy buyer. The new owner turned up with the horse a few days after the purchase and angrily exclaimed, “Didn’t you say this horse was perfectly safe and wouldn’t trouble anybody ?” er coolly asked, “What's the matter with the horse?” The dupe replied: “You know well enough. He inter- feres badly.”” With a curt “Well, he doesn’t interfere with anybody but himself, does he?’ the fake dealer brushed the matter aside, and the pur- chaser found himself without a reme- dy.—Philadelphia Record. A Great Military Feat, Nonza, in Corslea, 1s very proud of the story of a great military feat per- formed there long ago. It is told in “Romantic Corsica,”” by George Ren- wick, The French in 1768 had subjugated all the northern cape with the excep- tion of the tower of Nonza, which for a considerable time sustained a close slege. Attacking parties were driven back by a fierce fire, but at last the garrison agreed to surrender if allow- ed to march out with all the honors of war. This was conceded, and old Captain Cascella appeared, staggering under a load of muskets and pistols. “Why is the garrison so long in com- ing out?’ asked the French com- mander. “It is here, sir,” replied Cascella. *1 am the garrison.” Glass Solvent. Hydrofluoric acid is an acld com- pound of hydrogen and fluorine. It may be prepared by the action of sul- phuric acid upon cryolite in an ap- propriate apparatus made of lead or platinum. It may thus be readily ob- tained in a liquid form and is color- less. Its vapors are exceedingly poi- sonous, and the liquid itself, even when mixed with more or less water, causes severe swellings on the skin. Great care must therefore be taken in working with this acid. Hydrofluoric acid dissolves glass, forming hydro- fluosilicic acid with its silica; hence its use for making etchings on glass.— Exchange. They Come Later. The Young Wife (showing her furni- ture)—Here’s the rocking chair for the parlor. Isn't it just lovely? Mrs. Old- ley (rather critically)—But I don't see any rockers, dear. The Young Wife— Oh, they’ll be here next month. You see, we are buying the chair on the installment plan, and we have paid for the rockers yet.—Chicago News. Well Settled. Riggs—Did your wife's father settle anything' on you when you married his daughter? Briggs—You bet he did. He gettled himself on us, and we ca get rid of him.—Boston Transeript.

An old gentleman accustomed to walk around St. Jng)e park every day was once asked by’ nd if he still took his usual walk. “No, sir.” replled the old man; “I cannot do as much now.

I only go halfway around and back again.”—House- keeper h Nothlnz 1s ‘more dllzrlcetu] than in. l!nceflty -Clmo, i The deal- |7 The Start.- “Bromley, T hear you are going' to | start housekeeping?”’ “Yes, Dallinggot.” “What have you got toward lt'i" “A wife."—Stray Storles.
