FOR GQODNESS SAKE - WERENF YoU SCARED STIFF - BEING WE DROVE QVER IN THE ATTICS RICH IN TREASURES Storerooms of Ancient New England Houses Hold Dearly Prized Mém- ories of Days Gone By. Ascend to a typical New England .attic and view the conglomerate col- lection’' before your eyes. In one cor- ner, perhaps, is the- enormous pail which years ago held an ample supply of rich wedding cake or pound cake. On the long wooden shelf above it re- posed at one time fruity mince pies. and plum pudding to last the family throughout the entire winter. Lift tenderly the cover of yonder trunk and inhale gratefully the fra- grance of sweet lavender and attar of roses that is wafted upward. Should you unearth a wedding gown, undoubtedly you will find a veil which completed the costume, a veil so love- ly with the needlework and exquisite embroidery that to gaze upon it is a Joy. find within their attics one of the lus- trous shawls brought long ago from the Orient. From India there were the gorgeous affairs of vivid scarlet worked in designs of black and gold, from China shawls Fich with elaborate embroidery and those of camel’s hair with its white center and staid bor- der of palm leaves in blue and black. | One of the most interesting treas- ures remained unnoticed in one attic for more than forty years, one of the three most important pictorial wall papers ever designed. The paper is soft gray with each scene framed like a picture, and depicts the escapades of Don Quisote and Sancho Panza from the time they feft home until their return. DIDN'T HELP MATTERS MUCH Hotel Propr!:{or's Explanation Prob- ably Left the Lady More In- dignant Than Before. The proprietor of a certain hotel in Jersey is not only one of the kindest and best-hearted of men, but also one of the most profane, He swears with- out knowing,“and means no offense, He spends but little time in the office and is practically unknown to many of the guests. "One day, however, he was In conversation with the manager when a lady interrupted them. “I want my room changed,” she said. “It is on the side overlooking the kitch- en, and I am annoyed by the swearing of some man there every morning. I am a church woman and will not stand it another day.” The remarks were addressed to the manager, for she did not know the pro- prietor or that the one who did the swearing was he. “Do you happen to know who that man is?” he asked, before the manager could reply. “No,” she answered. “I do not.” “Well, I do,” the proprietor replied, and he dovsn't mean any more when he swears than you do when you get down on your knees to pray.”—Phila- delphia Ledger.

They are generally con- sidered to be the artist's masterpfece. The Rigki Sequence. ““A topline quotation in a contempo- rary runs: ‘Tell me my faults and mend your own. Before starting any other mending, neighhor, suppose we first mend the motto so as to get the proper sequence. Isn't this better: “Mend your own faults ahd then tell me mine.’ "—Boston Transeript.
