A Financial Genius.
An old gentleman who had dis
mounted from his horse walked into
a wayside inn at Burley-in-Wharfe
dale and left the animal in charge
of a scantilv clad wrchin. On re
turning he found another poverty
stricken boy holding the horse. Ex
amining the little lad through his
eveglasses, he exclaimed:
“You're nof the boy 1 left with
my horsze!”
“No, ¢ir,” replied the boy; “I just
speckilated and bought him from
Yother lad for a penny.”
For his cendor the boy received
sixpence. — London Penny Maga
zine.
Domestic Courtesy.
At a Lambeth guardians’ and of
ficers’ dinner Mr. Frank Bryant told
a story of a Lambeth lad who was
qucstioned hy his schoolteacher as
to his father’s Christinn name.
Teacher—What’s vour name?
Bov—Jones,
“Your father’s name 7
“dones.”
“And his other name ?”
“Mr. Jones.”
“No, no! What does your moth
er call him ?” 5
“011 {fat head.” — London Ex
press.
Compensaticn.
When Wilson Hobart married
Hetty Lewis there were many peo
ple who predicted domestic troubles,
even tragedies, but they were mis
taken. The Hobarts were to all
appearances an unusually happy
couple.
“I reckon Hetty must have learn
ed to keep her temper better than
she used {O,” remarked one person
to whom this state of affairs was in
explicable. “You don’t look a bit
older than the day you were mar
ried, Wilson.” ;
“I don’t know as she has,” said
Mr. Hobart, with his slow smile. “]
tell her I guess she's got enough on
hand to last her. She needn’t save
any to accommodate me. And [ can
tell vou,” he added, with enthusi
asm, “it would take more than any
temper ever I saw to sour Hettyv's
bread or Licr cream pies.”—Youth's
Companion.
Inches of Time.
Beware of Josing or wasting inches
of time. They are the little foxes
that run away with many days. So
much can be done in them and with
them, often the very things for
which we sigh hopelessly. Fill them,
every one. Keep something handy
—something that fits the interval.
Remember a famous lawbook was
written because a Jord chancellor
chose not to be idle throughout the
fifteen minutes his wife made him
wait each day for dinner. Recall,
too, all the men, noble and eminent,
who have climbed to the heights by
saving inches of, time. All of us
cannot hope to become likewise em
wment, but we can reasonably and
exsily make ourselves happy with
things wrouzht in the fra:mentary
moments vhich ve micht unthrift
ily leave vocant.—Delineator.
f£. Nov.ng Appczl.
Fe war o motherless hoy and his
fother's ontv chiid, but,some of the
relatives Lad decided that he should
be sent to a '!m.\\' school !3(l_\' miles
fromx home, aud at last the father
had agreed to the plan. .
Forty-eight hours after his boy’s
departure the father received a let
ter, which was, although not fault
less as an example of spelling, so
much to the point and so in accord
with his own feelings that the plans
for the future were speedily read-
Justed.
“Dear father,” wrote the exile,
“it’s all right here, and I'm not
-hemesick, I believe, but life is very
short, and don’t you think you'd
better let us spend some more of it
together? Your affectionate son,
Thomas.”
FLORAL SUPERSTITIONS.
Country Beliefs About the Mints.
Flowers and Luck.
There is mothing which grows
around which there is more super
stition woven than the homely
mints. Not only is mint the crown
ing enticement of a julep and a
thing which makes sedate tabbies
gambol and roll Tike six-month-old
kittens; but, according to tradition,
the different mints have supernatu
ral properties, and there are good
and bad mints. Pennyroval, aside
from its qualification ¢s a flea dis
courager, 1s said to make a quarrel
some husband and wife stop bicker
ing if it is given to them by some
friend. Catnip, on the other hand,
when chewed creates quarrelsome
ness and is said to make even mild
and gentle people fierce. If catnip
is held in the hand until heated and
then put into the hand of another,
it will, so goes the superstition, so
control that person that he or she
cannot leave you so long as the cat
nip is retained in the hand.
Spearmint will prevent illness
so long as it is worn about the wrist.
If spearmint is mixed with salt and
applied to the bite of a mad dog,
the wound will heal, it is said. In the
olden days the children used to put
a bit of spearmint in the cots on
Christmas day, believing that at the
exact time when the Saviour was
born the mint would blossom.
The superstitions which cluster
around flowers are as many as there
are different flowers. It is consid
ered unlucky to gather flowers out
of season, as before and after the
season they are said to belong to
the fairies. The first wild flowers
which are gathered by a voung wom
an in the spring should spell the
initials of her future husband, if
the superstition holds true,
Here is a schedule of supersti
tions fbout finding the first flower
of the season:
If found on Monday, good luck
all the vear.
If found on Tuesday, large un
dertakings, which will be success
ful.
If found on Wednesday, a wed
ding in the family.
It found on Thursday, hard work
with little profit.
If found on "Briday, unexpecttd
wealth.
If found on Saturday, misfer
tunes.
If found on Sunday, best luck of
all.—New York Tribune.
