Senator Works owns property in this vicinity and Senator Clague ‘comes' on legal business. -and batés the esc: That there are more ways than-one of “killing a cat™ is a well known fact, but the newest of ways has been evolved from the fertile brain of a Germantown woman who is blessed with a stingy husband. 7This husband is generous enough in one sense of the word. His wife may have the best attire the stores afford charged to his account, but she may handle no money, | Women, in this man's opinion, know nothing of the value of a dollar. On leaving for his office in the morning he kisses her goodby and thrusts al quarter’s worth of trolley tickets into | her hand. Now milady goes shopping. buys a few necessities and a fifty dollar wrap for which she has no use whatever. Nest day she returns the latter, re-! celves a credit slip for $50 and betakes herself to the handkerchief counter, where she spends 50 cents, receiving $49.50 change. Placing some small change in her purse and stowing the roll of greenbacks in what she con- siders a safer receptacle, she leaves the shop feeling that she has made the best of a bad bargain.—Philadel- | phia Record. | | A Bald Fact. * It is common to deplore the lack of humor in a person. Yot the very want of wit may save a certain amount of embarr: nent, as was the case oo a certain occasion with President John- son. ‘“He was one day,” says a writer in Harper’s Magazine, *visiting my mother, and a friend, Mrs. Knox, a widow, came in. She had known Mr. | Johnson some years before, when he was a member of the legislature, but they bad not met since then. “After mutual recognition Mr. John- said: ‘How is Mr. Knox? 1 have not seen him lately.’ *“‘He has been dead six years,’ said Mrs. Knox., | *‘I thought I hadn't seen him on the street,’ said Mr. Johnson. “When Mrs. Knox left my mother said, laughing, ‘That was a fuony mis- take of yours about Mr. Knox.’ **What mistake did 1 make? said Johnson. ‘I said 1 hadn’t seen him on the street, and 1 hadn't."” Owning Your Home. “T bave always felt that upon prop- erly appointed and hecoming dwellings depends more than anything else the improvement of mankind.” said Benja- min Disraeli (Earl of Beaconstield). To sit in the evening in your comfortable armchair; to look naronnd you and know that everything you see there is your very own and that you have ob- tained it all so thar you practically do not feel the cost; to know also that if you, the breadwinner, were suddenly called away your home would still be your wife’s or your family’s—that is one of the pleasures of life, indeed. It is a pleasure which gives you new beart in your work ip the world. It sends you out every morning deter- mined to. get on and to earn. more money. and because of- that very deter- mination yon do become worth more money.—New York Press. A Handy Snuffbox. A curious story is told as to how the Rothschilds supported Carafa, the composer. The latter was far from rich. His principal income was de- | rived from a spuffbox. And this was the way of it: The snuffbox was given to the author of “La Prison d’Edim- bourgh” by Baron James de Rothschild as a token of esteem. Carafa sold it twenty-four hours later for 75 na- poleons 'to the same jeweler from whom it had been ‘bought. This be- came known to Rothschild, who gave it again to the musician on the follow- ing year. The next day it returned to the jeweler’s. The traffic continued till the death of the banker and longer still, for his sons kept up the tradi- tion. to the great satisfaction of Carafa, g Little Else. A London attorney named Else, rath- er diminutive in his stature and not particularly respectable in his charac- ter, once met Jekyll. “Sir,” said he, “T hear you have called me a pettifog- ging scoundrel. Have you done so, sir?” “Sir,” said Jekyll, with a look of con- tempt, “1 never said you were a pet- tifogger or a scoundrel, but I said you | were ‘little Else’”—Westminster Ga- zette. They Felt Hungry. She—Well, Clarence, dear, the sit- uation is not quite as rosy as it was pictured to us before marriage, is it? He—Well, not all together so, love. ‘She—1 wish—er—1 wish— He—What do you wish, dearest? She—I wish we had the rice and the old shoes they threw at us when we were married. | He Lumped. It. “My coffee is not quite sweet enough.” remarked he. “Well, it you don’t like it, I suppose you’ll have to lump it,” said she, with a smile, passing the loaf sugar his way. Fixed For the Future. Friend—Haven't you named the baby yet? Proud Mother—No; we must be very eareful to give him a nice one, be- cause there will be so many named after him when he is president. What Did He Mean?
