French Dry Cleaning, Pressing and Repairing a Specialty, 315 Beltrami Avenue " Stories of Frederick the Great. In the course of some military evolu. tlons Frederick the Great of Prussia, irritated Ly some mistake.of ‘a captain, rdn after binr with bis stick In order to strike him. ‘The captain ran away. The next. morning the commanding.of- ficer:reported to the<king that the offi- cer in question, one of the most effi- clent In the regiment, bad sent in his Papers. “Tell, bim: to come to me.” sald® the King. ~ The offfcer; In great perturbation, came. “Good morning: major,” he. apostrophized: the officer, who: wastspeechless with sirprise. 1 wanted to tell you of your promotion, but you ran-so fast.1 could not catch yourup. Good morning.” Anotber time an-officer attempted to get u comrade into bad odor with the king by telling his majesty that.he was a drunkard. In a subSequent bat- tle the latter's fitness. was ‘conspicu ous, whereas his slanderer played a very poor purt. When afterward he defiled past the king at the head of his regiment his majesty called out to him in a voice of thunder, “The sooner you take to drink the better!” The Old Time Surgeon: Before aunesthetics were known the surgeon’s only expedient was to.abridge, his patient’s' sufferings by working rapidly. In tuls the old time surgeons- did wonders. They had a control and a surety in thelr hands that are now seldom found. One daythe celebrated surgeon Maisonneure had:to'amputate the leg of a poor devil. who began to how! in advance. “T'll give you my watch,” said the surgeon, “if the oper- ation lasts more than a minute.” The man accepted the offer, but was oblig- ed to forego the handsome watch, as the operation took less time than it re- quires to describe. To amputate an arm at the shoulder is a most difficult operation. Dr. Langenbeck of Ger: many did It in two minutes: A young physician who came to see himl per- form the opgration adjusted.his spec- tacles to. his nose so as not to losera single movement, but when the spec- tacles. were in place the operation was over and the severed arm: lay on the floor. Times have changed much since then. Dr. Johnson’s Church. St. Clement Danes: has never forgot- ten"the fact' that Johnson worshiped! within its walls. The pew in which he sat (it is in the north gallery, close to the. pulpit) is marked by a brass plate which was erected by the parish- foners in 1851, In December, 1884, the centenary of Dr: Johnson's death- was- obscrved by a memorial service, when & special address.was delivered by thae. Rev. Dr. Lindsay, at that time reetor of St. Clement Danes. Johnson's pew was on that occasion draped in violet. Johnson was always constant in his attendance at church on Good Friday and Easter day. On April 9, 1773, he went with Boswell. “His behavior,” writes Boswell, “was, as I had imagin ed to myself, solemnly devout. 1 shall never forget the tremulous earnestness with which he pronounced the awful petition in the litany, ‘In the hour of death and in the day of judgment, good Lord, deliver us!” "—London News. Fine Art of Letter Opening. In Russia -one letter in every ten passing through the post'is opened by the authorities as a matter of course. Indeed, the postal authorities of every country have experts who have raised letter opening to a fine art. Some kinds of paper can be, steamed open without leaving any traces, and this slmple operation is finished by re- burnishing the: flap with a bone instru- ment. In the case of a seal a matrix is taken by means of new bread be- fore breaking the: wax. When: other methods fail the envelope is placed be- tween pleces of wood with edge pro- jecting one-twentieth of‘an inch. The edge of the envelope is first flattened, then roughened and finally slit open. Later a hair line of strong white gum is applied and the edges united under pressure.—Loncon Chronicle. Charity and Prudence. The contradictions of life are many. An observant man remarked recently that he was prowling about a certain city square when he came upon a drinking: fountain which; bore:twa con- fiicting inseriptions. One, the original inscription on the fountain, was from the Bible, “And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Above this bung a placard, “‘Please do not waste the water.” — Youth’s Companion. Stewed Deers' Horns. Deers’ horns when young may form a dish for human consumption. Sir S. W. Baker writes, “When the large horns of the sambur, or wapiti, are growing they make an excellent dish, first scalded to divest them of down and then gently stewed with a good sauce and a few vegetables.”—London Malfl. Her Description. Muggins—Women have such queer ‘ways of expressing themselves! Bug- gins—Such as? Muggins—Well, my wife was telling .me about Miss Yel lowleaf and said she was a sight to behold and in the very next breath said she wasn't fit to be seen.—Phila- delphia Record. Rural Ameni Fair Passenger—But, good graclous, why didn’t the train stop here It is supposed to. Porter—Yes, miss, but the engine driver has quarreled with the station master.—Pele Mele. A Conclusion. “Her husband doesn’t smoke, drink. chew, swear or play cards.” “Iutroduce me. Widows are my spe- clalty.”—Hcuston Post. Among Those Present. Commenting with light irony ou the pretensions of a certain nouveau riche, a contributor to Paris Figaro ques- tions whether men of this type are any sillier than those of a past gener- ation who belonged to well known fawilies of long descent. “There was one of the family of Croy.” this contributor writes, “who was fond of showing an old painting of Noah entering the ark and crying out: 3 ‘Sauvez les paplers de la maison de Croy!” (Save the records of the bopse of Crov) ' 9508 € g e ey Managing the Weather. It may safely be said that control of the weather by sorcepérs was al- together dishelieved In hy?very, few persens i the:sixteenthicentury:. But if the bellef was, held wmore strongly along one coust line than another it was arouud- the , Baltie. rather than elsewhere. As:late us-1670:a.traveler tells us how, being becalmed off Fin- land, the captain sent ashore to buy aiwind from a wizard: The: fee wis 10 kroner (say 36 shillings) and a pound of tobacco. The wizard tied a ‘woolen. ragi withi. three knots in It to thesmast. . Untying the: first knot: pro- duces just the wind they want, south- west.

Norway’s Love For Bjornson. ‘What Bjornson wus to his own people is best made clenr by an inci- dent which occurred at his beloved Aulestad not long before he was forced to start on his final journey to Paris In search of auother lease of health and life. A regiment passed the piace in the course of a maneu- ver. Its commander sent word ahead to the poet asking him to review the soldiers as they marched by. Bjoru- son stood on the veranda of his house, surrounded by his entire family—a man who had ‘never held any public office,” mind you! As the troop ap- proached on the: highroad below offi- cers andimen gave the salute due:to a commanding geveral or a member of the royal bouse. But this was oot all. {rom. the rupldly? moving’ ranks rose one--mighty: shout' after’ auother—a spontaneous outburst of devotion and gratitude.such as it has been granted very- few. men the fortune to inspire: —Edward Bjorkman in American Re- view of Reviews. Figures of Speech. A well known' ventriloguist who had consented to give a performance in aid of charity heard- that certain members of* bis prospective audience were de- termined to warch the movements of his mouth with the closest scrutiny with a: view of confoundidg him. The} uight came, the attendants carried in three dummies on chalrs; and the artist made his appearance. His, performe ance was unusually successful, the muscles of his face giving no evidence of his art. The changes of voice.were marvelous, and the astonished crowd at the close of the exhibition gave him a rousing cheer. Again and again they called him back, and he express- ed his pleasure by innumerable bows. At last the cheering ceased, and he was permitted to retire. Scarcely had he: doge so. when the three “lay” fig- ures'got up-from- their chairs and walk- ed off the stage. The ventriloquist had employed three friends. to impersonate his‘usualmechanical figures. The “Bull.” The origin of the word “bull” as the definition of a confused utterance iIs doubtful. Some philologists say it comes from the French boule—"fraud” —and others. that it is derived from the Icelandic bull—“nonsense.” Many definitions have been attempted, but the best probably is that of Sydney Smith. Writing of the difference be- tween wit and “bulls,” he says: “Wit discovers real relations that are appar- ent; ‘bulls’ admit apparent relations that are not real. The stronger the apparent connection and the more com- plete the real ‘disconnection- of the ideas the greater the surprise and the better the ‘bull.’” Where Looks Don’t Matter. Apropos of a titled foreigner’s mar- rlage to a rich and rather plain Ameri- can girl a New Yorker said: “The eount has no cause to com- plain. The ethics of such a marriage as his are but the ethics of the matri- monial agency. “A man called at a matrimonial agency. “‘I' am interested,’ he said, ‘In the young lady who has $250,000 in her own right. Could you let me see her photograph? . *‘No; that is not the custom. the ageut replied. ‘In any case over $100,- 000 the: photograph is' never asked for.” Working Him. “I want the office; of course,” said the aspiring st: .esman, “but not unless I am the people’s choice.” “We can fix that, too.”” sald his cam- paign manager, “only you know it's a good deal more expensive to be the people’s choice than it Is to go in as the compromise candidate.”—Chicago Tribune. Friendship. Friendship is a vase which when it is flawed by heat or violence or acci- dent may as well be broken at ounce. It can pever be trusted again. The more graceful and ornamental it was the more clearly do we discern the hopelessness of restoring it to its for- wer state. . A Continued Story. “What did your wife say when you stayed out so late last night?” “l don’t know. She hasn't finisheds telling it all to me yet.”—Detroit; [’ree. Press. In this world it is not what we take up. but what we give up, that makes us rich, Beecher. “That’s the Way They All Do." An enthusiastic citizen about to visit Europe was rejoicing over the fact and the pleasure to come. “How delightful it will be." he sald to bis wife, “to tread the bounding bil- lows and inhale the invigorating oxy- gen of the sea, the sea, the boundless sea!l 1 long to see. it—to. breathe in great drafts of Hfe giving air. - I shall’ want to stand every moment on the Prow of thessteauier with my:mouth open”— 3 ““You probably will, dear." interrupt- ed 'his wife encouragingly, “That's the way all the ocean travelers do.”— Detroit News-Tribune, She Didn’t Mind. A girl with a”Gibson' face and a, green feather in her hat boarded a Chestnut, street car the other after: noon;” She carried something ini a . pa- per sack under her arm. 'The car was crowded with passengers; and no one offered to.rise. The girl' looked: worried. but set; her lips and grabbed at.a strap. Just then the car lurched, the girl made a wild effort to keep.on: her feet and: thraw: her bundle strrightin a large-man's lap. There was a’ peculiar grinding sound In the sack. and then something seeped out: that lonked susplclougly: like the yellow of an egg. “What in the thunder Is this stuff?" he started to y. when she sweetly remarked as’she clung to the strap: *Oh, never .mind waking ‘apologies. T can-get another dozen of eggs at our grocery.” The conductor removed the sack of eggs. and the man looked so savage that no one dared laugh.—Louisville Times. A Weekly Birthday. Dr. Marks, who for nuiny years was head of St. .Johu’s collége, Rangoon, which the young Bormese princes at tended. once granted a day’s holiday because it was Queen Vietoria’s birth- day.. The king nsked Dr. Marks what he meant by it. On hearlng the ex- planation he said graciously, “That's all right, but will you give them a holi- day on my birthday?” Dr. Marks said he certainly would if his majesty would inform him what } was the day on which the world. was blessed by his birth. “According to Burmese national cus- tom,” sald the king, “my birthday is every Tuesday!” ¢ The Pepper Vine. The most common and widely used of all spices is pepper. It is a native of the East Indies, but ‘Is now culti- vated In various parts of the tropical belt of this hemisphere. The plant Is a climber and has a smooth stem sometimes twelve feet long. The fruit is about the size of a pea and when ripe is of a bright red color. In culti- vation the plant is supported by poles. In some localities small trees are used instead of poles, for the best pepper i grown in a certain degree of shade. The Gentle Art. E “1 adore intelligence!" she cried. “So. do 1" said he. “All the same, thiough, beauty and intellect never go together.” % *And do you think me intellectual?”’ she faltered. “No," he confessed frankly. With a faint blush she murmured, “Flatterer” [.os Angeles Examiner. A Bright Student. During a recent esamination in the theology of the Old Testament the following question was asked a young clergyman: “What language did Ba. lnam’s ass speak?" After a mowment of thought a smile flashed across his face, and he wrote his answer. I look- ed at the paper. He had written, “As syrian.”—Lippincott’s. “NO REASON FOR IT, When Bamilis Citizens Shaw the Cer- tain Wav Out. » There can be no just reason why: any. rexdgr of this will continue 1o suffer the tortures-of an aching back, | jthe annoyance of urinary disorders.! the: dangers of diabetes; of - any. kidney ills when relief is so near at hand and the most positive prouf’ given that they can be cured.
