There was much discussion of the | matter, and it was finally decided that one of the elders—who had great lo- cal reputation as a man of parts— should be deputed to settle the ques- tion. On the next Sabbath the uncon- scious offender again made her ap- pearance and again produced the trum- pet, whereupon the chosen elder rose from his seat and marched down the alsle to where the old lady sat, and, entreating her with an upraised finger, said. sternly: “The first toot—ye're oot!"—Har- per's. A Good Inheritance. No boy or girl can ever come to be utterly bad who remembers only love and tenderness and unselfishness and sweetness as associated with father and mother in the old-time home. Give them manly and womanly examples, give them training, give them the in- spiration of devoted lives, glve them these higher, deeper things. Do not care 8o much as to whether you are accumulating money, so that you can leave them a fortune. I really believe that the chances are against that's be- Ing a blessing for a boy. But leave them an accumulated fortune of mem- orles and inspirations and examples and hopes, so that they are rich in brain and heart and soul and service. Then, i you happen to leave them the lortune besides, if they have all these, the fortune will be shorn of its possi- bilitles of evil, and will become an | fnstrument of the higher and nobler | good.—Minot J. Savage. Was He Dellrious? “Almost every man,” says a Baltl- more spacialist, “learns sooner or later to think of his doctor as one of his best friends, but this fact does not hinder the world from laughing at the profession. “‘How is our patient this morning?’ asked a physician, a fellow-graduate of mine, of a patient’s brother. “‘Oh, he's much worse,’ came from | the other in a tone of dejection. ‘He's been delirfous for several hours. At three o'clock he sald: “What an old woman that doetor of mine is!” and he hasn’t made a rational remark since.’ “—Lippincott's.

LONDON'S WEALTH AND POVERTY Sad 'Extremes That Prevall In the World's Richest City, The London county council, accord- ing to yearly custom, has just pub- lished some suggestive statistics. In them the British capital is put down as probably the wealthiest ecity in the world. Tts property is insured against fire for about six billions of dollars. It takes about 419,037 tons of killed meat and 58,735 live cattle, 375,950 sheep, 174,332 tons of fish and 80,826,- 330 gallons of milk to feed the popula- tion, which uses 82,152,249,000 gallons of water for drinking and other pur- poses.

Mexican Audlences Evidently Lull. Patience of Americans. Here is a nmews item the like of which one does not find in the news- papers of the United States. It comes from the City of Mexico and describes the exciting incident at Queretaro: “Yesterday's bulifight,” the reader is informed, “was wretched, and start- ed a row. The management announced that the bulls would be first-class, but those which appeared were very small and showed no fight whatever. Four of these ridiculous beasts' were sent back to the corral, another barely { qualified, and only one turned_out to be a real bull. “The public, unable to repress its indignation, laid hold of everything it could get its hands on and threw it into the bull ring, causing serious “In the midst of the excitement the announcement was made that the management had been fined $100, but this was not sufficient to allay the public indignation. The manager of the bull ring was compelled to hide owing to the fact that some of the most excited individuals in the audi- ence were making a diligent search for him. “It was a tremendous row, as we re- marked before, and would have had more serious censequences had not the Fifth corps of rural police ar- rived on the scene most opportunely. The policemen made the discontented audience disperse, and then mounted guard over the bull ring and the resi- dence of the manager.” CHANCE FOR SETTLEMENT GONE. Basso Might Have Decided Vexed Question, But He Didn't. The choir began the hymn. When they came to the line: “Neither are they afraid,” the composer of the music had so written it that it had to be repeated first by the soprano, then by the alto, and finally by the bass. The soprano seemed to be of conserva- tive taste and sang the line: “Nee-ther are they afraid.” Apparently the alto had departed from the usage of her forefathers, for when she brought out the words they became “Ni-ther are they afraid,” and it became a serious question which side the bass would take. The bass was an Irishman. Out rolled his rich voice: “Nay-ther are they afraid.” So the question of usage still re- mained unsettled. The Wise Fly. In a lecture on flies before the Royal hotographic society of London, F. P. Smith said that with a little patience flies could be trained, and he showed some cinematograph records of flies lying on their backs twirling minia- ture dumb-belis, balancing weights bigger than themselves, climbing re- volving wheels, and acting as nurse- maids, holding dum bables. Ac- balanced ittle machines were used for training the flies, and the only discomfcrt to the insect, said the lecturer, was involved in its being imprisoned for a day or two. On being released, a2!though its wings were un- injured, it had no desire to fly, but showed tractableness and readiness to these extraordinary gyra tions instead. - S T g of Emerson was a notable 'sufferer from the vagaries of memory. His bi- ographer relates that he met him one day in Boston, apparently at a loss for something, and asked him where he ‘was going. “To dine,” said Emerson, “with a very old and dear friend. I know where she lives, but I hope she won't ask me her name,” and then he proceeded to describe her as “the mother of the wife of the young man —the tall man—who speaks so well,” and so on, until, his interlocutor guessed to whom he was referrins. Even the names of common objects often failed him completely. On one occasion, when he wanted an umbrel- la, he sald: “I can't tell its name, but I can tell its history. Strangers take it away.” This' failing of Emerson led to a pathetic scene when he attended Longfellow’s funeral, and remarked as he gazed at the coffin: “He was a sweet and beautiful soul; but I have entirely forgotten his name.” i AT AR VT GREAT: MEN LAY SIDE BY SIDE.‘ | Proof of Philosopher’s Words That “Fame Is a Bubble.” Before engaging our carriage for a drive in Richmond we especially em- phasized our desire for a well-informed driver, as we were strangers in the city. We soon discovered the utter ignorance of the one assigned us, but the climax came at the entrance to Hollywood cemetery. “You, of course, know where the graves of the presidents are and will drive directly to them?” I mildly sug- gested. “Presidents!” he echoed. “What presidents? T didn't know any were buried here.” Testily reminded to learn at once, he stopped a man driving on a load of dirt. ’ “The presidents!” he smilingly an- swered. “Sure.

Mr. Philanthropist was passing a bakery, when he ol a little girl gazing with longing eyes at some cakes displayed in the window. The youngster's wistful gaze was too much for Mr. Philapthropist, so he took immedfate measures to satisfy her longing. When she had in short order dis- posed of a rich bit of pastry she calm- 1y asked for another. “I should like very much to give you another,” sald the kiadly man, “but I'm . afraid it would make you sick.” “Get it for me, anyway,” quickly re- sponded thelittle girl. “I can git all the med-cine I need at the dispensary for nuthin".” The Secret of Happiness. The moment we set about the task of making every human being we come in contact with better for know- ing us—more cheerful, more ecoura- geous, and with greater faith in the ment we begin to attain the third pur pose of life—persvnal happiness. Would you possess the maglo secret of the alchemist which trans- forms all things to gold? 1t is unselfishness—or, to use & bet- ter word, selflessness. He who goes forth bent upon being always kind, always helpful, in the little daily events of life, will find all skies tinted with gold, all his nights set with stars, and unexpected flow- ers of pleasure springing up in his pathway. And all his tears shall turn into smiles. Dogs to Match. The late dowager empress of China was the most powerful personage of the day, yet between the lines of a re- cent imperial edict a delightfully fem- inine bias is easlly discoverable. Her majesty, who was the supreme authority on the standard qualifica- tions of the little Pekingese spaniel, which is exclusively reserved for im- perial use, gave an order thus: “For the color, let it be like that of a lion, a sable-gold, to be carried in the | sleeve of a- golden robe, or the color of a red orof a black bear, or white, or striped like a dragon, so that there may be a dog appropriate to every cos- tume."—Youth's Companion. “Lady,” said Plodding Pete, provided, “T sald me out wid de wood-choppin’.” “That's what you sald.” “An’ I'm & man of me word.” “Then why don't you reach for the ax and go to work?” “Lady, 1 merely took de contract.

STOMACH CENTER OF HUMAN *F-ALL ESE SECONAR The success which has followed L. T. Cooper during the past year with His new preparation, Cooper's Now Discovery, is unparalleled. Cooper has a novel theory. He belleves that the human stomach is directly re- nsible for most disease. To quote his own words from an interview ufi- on his arrival in an eastern city: “The average man or womarn cannot be sick it the stomach is working properly. To be sure, there are diseases of a virulent nature, such as cancer, tuber- culosis, diabetes, ete. which are organic, and are not traceable to the stomach, but even fevers can, in nine cases out of ten, be traced to some- thing taken into the stomach. All of this half-sick, nervous exhaustion that is now so common, is caused by stomachic conditions, and it is because my remedy will and does regulate the stomach that I am meeting such suc- cess.
