House Numbers. Before the advent of the house nun- ber only business signs, coats of arms and bouse names marked the different buildings. Then, in London, for in- stance, one had to look for Mr. Jones, should he desire to call upon that man. in, say. “Whitechapel, not far frow the Blue Boar.” It is thought Berlin in 1795 was the first city to employ. the numbering system. The German innovators did not put odd numbers on one side of their streets and even pumbers on the other. They merely started from the Brandenburg gate and numbered straight ahead. taking no account of change of street. As they proceeded. therefore. the num- bers grew higher, the height to which they attained being limited only by the supply of bouses. The first house they numbered was No. 1, the last the number that betokened the total num ber of houses in the city.—St. Louis Republic. Prompter.

Fields, the | publisher, was making a collection of the writings of De Quincey. The es- says were widely scattered in various periodicals and were often hard-to | Identify. Mr. Fields knew Rufus | Choate as a devoted student -of De Quincey and wrote him one day ask- ing his opinion as to a certain article. Was It by De Quincey or not? | Mr. Choate replled that it certainly | was. There could be no mistaking the style of the piece. A few weeks later Mr. Choate recelved through Mr. Flelds a letter from De Quincey deny- ing nbsolutely and somewhat indig- nantly the nuthorship of the article. But Choate was not of the stuff to | yleld his opinion for a trifle like that. He wrote to Mr. Fields: “I still believe that De Quincey wrote | the essay. De Quincey to the contrary | notwithstanding.” | Doubtless Mr. Flelds read the note with a smiling comment, “That's just like Choate’s confidence in his own Judgment!” Months elapsed. One day there came 1 letéer from De Quincey containing a humble apology for his previous blun- der. By chance he had found in his | desk the manuscript of the very article in question. Written as it had been | years before, it had passed entirely from his mind. “and you may tell your young Boston lawyer,” he concluded, “that he knows my style better than I know it myself.” A Primitive View of the Bullfrog. The frogs in America, it must here be observed, make a most singular oofse, some of them being sbsolutely whistling, while others croak so loud Iy that it is difficult at times to tel | whether the sound proceeds from a | calf or a frog. I have more than once been deceived by the noise when walk- ing in a meadow. These last frogs are called bullfrogs. They mostly keep {n pairs and are never found but whers there is good water. Thelr bodies are from four to seven inches long, and their legs are in proportion. They are extremely active and take prodigious leaps.—From an Old Book of Travels. . A Loan In Fancy. “You won't run any risk in lending me u thousand francs. 1 am writing a novel that is sure to go. You know as well as | do what an imagination 1 have.” “Well, you'd better imagine that I have lent you the money, then.”—Pele Mele. Saving Their Clothes. “1 have noticed.” the manager of a hotel said. where almost every man who stops has a valet and every wom- an one or more maids, “that people nowadays avoid a valet or maid that is of their owr size. If a man is small he gets a big valet, and if he is tall his valet will be tiny. It is the same | way with the women in regard to their | maids. The reason is to keep servants | from wearing their masters’ or mis- tresses’ clothes. And it is not only outside clot but shjrts, neckties and underwear they appropri- ate. [ have seen men engage valets often, and I know that size is the first item taken into consideration.”—New. York Sun. The Worm Turned.

Then it got to be a weekly occurrence. Finally he got to thinking that he was solid enough with her to go -out be- inf tween the acts, and so he did. For several weeks he worked this and met with no rebuff. But she was thinking a lot, even though she wasn’t saying anything. One evening she said, “Why don't you go to the smoking room to smoke instead of going to the lobby?” “Is—is there a smoking room in- side?’ he asked. “Of course. You always say that you are going out to smoke, and 1t seems so useless to have to take your hat and coat every time. And if you thought of it beforehand you could buy those cigarettes that you seem to like—the .ones that smell like cloves, you know—before you come.” He is wondering if she is as wise as it seems or as innocent as it appears.-- Boston Traveler. Used Another Man’s Legs. In the hall of the house of represent- atives there is a painting of George ‘Washington. He looks a most com- manding person, with the stature of a giant and a faultless physique. But looking at the portrait recently a pub- lic man commented: | “That is a good deal of a sham.| George Washington never looked Tlike | that, though I've no doubt he would | have been proud to appear so magnifi- |-cent. “Notice the legs,” the speaker con- tinued “They are perfect beauties, | but they are not Washington's.

We guarantee Cole’s Radiant Heater to hold fire 36 hours. Cole’s Radiant Heater is the first perfect combination stove made, giving the user a stove which can be converted into a suc- cessful soft coal cr wood burner by removing the magazine which can be done by removing three bolts. This feature is most appreciated by the user who wishes to burn soft coal, wood, corn cobs or other light fuels, when it is impossible to get hard coal or when all day and night fires are not required. The inside construction is scientifically correct for burning hard coal. Hard coal burns bestin a straight up and down fire pot, it feeds better. Hard coal does not swell while burning as soft coal does, therefore does not require a tapered fire pot.. The fire pot is heavy to insure durabil- ity. It is made having teeth on the bottom to allow air to enter the fuel at the side as well as up through the grates. This insures a more equal fire bed, and a cleaner combustion of the faei. : Come in and allow us to show you the feat- ures which make Cole’s Radiant hest of all har coal heaters—Price $22.00 to $38.00. ® : M.
