Of a sleepy looking youth he asked the question, “What construc- tien is that at the top of page 127’ “I don’t know,” was the prompt re- piy. “Why not?” thundered the professor. “T have been harping on that construc- tion all term.” 2 ] know you have. professor,” -was the soft reply, “but I haven’t caught the tune yet.” Embarrassing Question.

England” is the tendency to democracy prevailing in ber boys’ schools. Par- ents can be assured, it is said, that no pampering will fall to the lot of their sons, however exalted may be their rank or great their possessions. An English paper tells the story of -an Indian official of high rank calling upon the house ‘master in a famous public school, where a young prince, son of a rajah, was being educated. This official brought a special message from hi; master, the rajah, to the ef- fect that he wanted no favors or ex- ceptional treatment of any sort ex- tended to his son on account of his ex- alted birth. “You may set the mind of the rajah at rest on that score,” said the house master, struggling to keep back his smile before the dignified anxiety of the Indian official. “If the authorities were inclined to discriminate in the prince’s favor, the boys of the school would set the matter right. Among them generally the rajah’s son an- swers to the name of ‘Nigger, and 1 understand that with his intimates he is familiarly known as ‘Coal Scuttle.’” Sinister Motives. Two men—William Jones and John Smith—were neighbors and deadly en- emies. They often crossed swords in court and out of it, and Jones, being what might be called more clever than Smith, invariably got the better of the encounter. In the end so cowed was Smith that the slightest move on the part of Jones made him nervous and suspicious, and with the remark, “I wonder what object he has in this?” he called up all his reserve faculties to combat the fresh attack which poor Jones never contemplated. One day a friend called on Smith and greeted him with: “Well, old man, have you heard the news?”’ |, “No,” said Smith. “What news?” “Jones is dead. He died last night at midnight,” replied the other. Smith paused, drew a hard breath, raised his hand to his forehead and thought, then blurted out: “Dead, did you say—Jones dead? Great heavens! I wonder what object he has in this?” Lights His Pipe In a Gale. I write as one who has smoked in his time more matches than most people, and it will be understood how I regard the bus driver’s ability in lighting a pipe. A gale may be blowing, the horses requiring special attention, his left eye engaged on the reflection of the omnibus in shop windows, a pas- .| senger inquiring who won the Derby in 1884, constables issuing directions with the right arm, a fare hailing him from the pavement, and amid all these distractions he can strike one wooden match, hold it in the curve of his hand and the tobacco is well alight. Also while hats are blowing about the streets in the manner of leaves in au- tumn his headgear never goes from its place, rarely: moves from the angle de- cided on the first journey. I have al° ways assumed that he takes it off at night before retiring to rest, but to part with it must mean a terrible wrench.—London Express. Spontini’s Decorations. Casparo Spontini, the composer, re- garded himself in the light of a demi- god, and when inspirations crowded upon him he donned a wide, toga- like gown of white silk with a border of gold and a fez of white silk em- broidered in gold from which a heavy tassel hung down. With great dignity ‘he ‘sat down before his desk, and if a grain of dust was visible on the paper on which he penned his music he rang the bell impatiently for his servant to remove the obstacle. Spon- tini owned so many medals and deco- rations that they could no longer be accommodated on his breast. At a grand musical reunion at Halle an old musician remarked to a comrade, “See how many decorations Spontini has, while Mozart has not one.” Spon- tini, who overheard it, replied quickly, “Mozart, my dear friend, does not need them.” A South African Animal. : There is a curious looking animal in South Africa that looks for all the world like a piece of toast with four legs, a head and a tail. 1t resembles a pussy cat about the forehead and ears, but its nose is distinctly that of a rat, while its tail is not very dis- similar to that of a fox. This strange animal is called the aard wolf and doubtless dwells in South Africa 'be- cause, judged by his looks, he would not be admitted into good animail so- clety anywhere else. Why He Desired a Cannon. It is related that an Indian chief once approached General Crook and wanted to borrow a cannon. “Do you expect me to loan you a esnnon with which to kill my sel{. diers?” the old veteran inquired. “No,” the chief replied; “kill soldiers with a club. Want cannon to kill cow- boys.” Thermometer Down. Among the good old ways of “merrie Figure it Out For Yourself. If you want a hard case there is the case of ‘a man who late at night bought a bottle of whisky at a public house—price, 3s. 6d.—says the London Globe. He handed over a five pound note, and the publican would not change it. “All right,” said the cus- tomer. “Give me the whisky and 16s. 6d. and keep my five pound note.” Next imorning the customer came in, planked down four sovereigns and said, “Give me back my five pound note and we shall be straight.” The publican and the sinner looked at each other.: Can you tell at a glance which got the better of the bargain when the customer went nwsy with his five pound note in his pocket? The ‘question puzzled a whole office full . of literary, financial, sporting, philosophical- and editorial men—until it reached a girl of eighteen who is en- gaged in dealing with cash. All the rest were calculating on paper and reaching the result by devious ways. The cash girl saw it in a flash of the eye. Do you? Shut your eyes and do it in five seconds if you wish to beat the cash girl. Wonderful Victoria Falls. “It is well nigh impossible to de- scribe a scene of such wonder, such wildness,” says Lady Sarah Wilson in ber “South African Memories” of the Victoria falls. But she gives this graphic description: “Standing on a point flush' with the river before it makes its headlong leap, we gazed- first on the swirling water losing it- self in snowy spray which beat re- lentlessly on face and clothes while the great volume was noisily disap- pearing to unknown and terrifying depths. The sightseer tries to look across, to strain his eyes and to see beyond that white mist “which ob- scures everything, but it is an impos- sible task, and he can but guess the width: of the falls, slightly horseshoe in shape, from the green trees which seem so far away on the opposite bank and are only caught sight of now and then as the wind causes the spray to lift. At the same time his attention is fixed by a new wonder— the mucls talked of rainbow. Never varying, never changing, that perfect shaped arc is surely more typical of eternity there than anywhere else.” Curran and Lord Clare. Curran, the Irish advocate, was on terms of intense enmity with Lord Clare, the Irish lord chancellor, with - whom, when a member of the bar, he fought a duel and whose hostility to him on the bench, he always said. caused him losses in his profession- al income which he could not esti- mate at less than £30,000. The inci- dents attendant on this disagreement were at times ludicrous in the extreme. One day when it was known that Cur- Jran was to make an elaborate state- metit i clumcery Lord Clare brought a large “Newfoundland dog to the bench with him and during the prog- ress of the most material part of the rasecbegan in full court to fondle the animal. Curran stopped at once. “Go on, go on, Mr. Curran!” said Lord Clare. “Oh, I beg a thousand pardons, my lord! I really took it for granted that your lordship was engaged in con- sultation!” Two Smart Actors. In a popuiar historic drama the ae- tor who takes the part of Napoleon is required to 'read aloud a document of considerable Jength which is brought to him by General Berthier. This, being written at length, is seldom com- mitted to memory. A short time ago, however, the property master at an English theater mislaid the document, and Napoleon, who was new to the part, received instead a blank sheet of paper. For a moment he was aghast; then, eager to escape from his pre- DANGER IN DELAY, Kidney. Diseases Are Too Dangerous for Bemidji People to Neglect. The great danger of kidney troubles is that they got a firm hold before the sufferer recognizes them. Health is gradually undetermined.
