Mr. Powers is one of the Pioneer citi- zens of this section and general re-| 5 gret is expressed over his determina- tion to move away. Origin of Expression “23” The origin of the expression ‘23” for you” is in dispute. Some claim that it came from Dickens’ novel, “A Tail of Two Cities,” where the hero was23 at the guillotine. But 23 is also the number that telegraphers use for ‘keep off the wire,” is the number of the insane ward at Bell- evue hospital, is the nuraber of verses in Genesis where Adam and Eve were yrdered out of Eden, and was the number of the rule in old base ball books giying the umpire authority to ject a player from the grounds.

Call for es | Lather of Soap Much Better Than . Using a Match. The folly of hunting for a leak in a gas pipe with a lighted match is not 80 much because of the danger of an explosion as of other damage, as is shown by the experience of a West Philadelphia householder last week. One or two small leaks were detected by going over all the pipes and hold- Ing a lighted match to them. The smell of gas ceased, but was replaced a few hours later by the smell of burning wood. Another visit to the cellar showed a charred floor joist a little distance above a gas pipe. Theve was no apparent cause for this until & very close examination discovered that a tiny jet of gas was issuing from the pipe beneath the beam. It was lighted, but was so small as to be blue in color and nearly invisible. It had been lighted by the match used fn the first investigation, but had not been noticed. “If that leak had happened to be in a lead joint instead of an iron con- nection,” said a gas man, “there would probably have been work for the fire department. The smallest vossible jet of lighted gas issuing through lead will-in time heat and melt the lead and make the leak larg- er, until a big flame is issuing. This may make a fire hours later, in the dead of night or at a time when no one is in the house. The only prop ,er way to look for these very small leaks is to paint the suspected pipe with a smooth soap lather. Just as in the case of a bicycle tire, the tint- est leak will blow a bubble in the lather, and there you are.”—Philadel- | phia Record. | LAST BOURBON AT VERSAILLES |Orange Tree Has Survived Rule of French Dynasty.

One of the greatest mistakes” of parents and those who have charge of children is that they are likely to allow the young onés too little time to sleep. With one excuse or anoth- er the youngsters are up later at night than they should be, and as they must be off to school betimes in ; the morning and there may be duties to perfo: they ate called before they have finisned their morning nap.

Few Women Faint. It is a curious fact, of general re mark, and observed not by physicians only, that fainting is less common han it used to be. It is rare that one sees a woman carried out of a church e~ theater, yet forty years ago it was a mafter of such common occurrence as barely to excite remark. This is due in very great measure to the out- door life young women lead in these days of tennis and golf and other sports. The heart and the circulation are strengthened by exercise in the open air and it takes a great shock to disorder the blood balance in the body of the modern woman. Scared by the Sentence. When the late Judge Newton of Southboro presided over the court in Westboro, he had before him one day gs. poor and illiterate Frenchman ac- cused of selling liquor. <As it was his first offense, he was fined $50, Evidently $50 was a fortune to the Frenchman, and it was also evident that he had a vague conception of | the seriousness of his crime, for, turn. ing a startled look on the judge, he exclaimed in wild tones: “For God’s sake, judge, why didn’t yer hung me?” —Boston Herald.
