EXPRESSIVE PHRASES.
Tlin*<- Which Foreigners. Cumin, Itt
Anirrlrit Learn lu l«* First.
What are the moat expressive phrases
In colloquial English? Of the dozens
that Klip off English speaking tongues
In the course of u day sotne must be
better suited for their purpose and
more characteristic of the race that
originated them than others. Win ij
foreigners come to this country, they
catch certain expressions almost Inline
dlntely ond long before they can at
tempt to speak the language have
made them part of their vocabulary
It would seem that these phrases must
be the most expressive In English and
that they are peculiar to the language
and "till a lung felt want." slnee for
vlgners seize so eagerly upon them.
Every man or woman who lands In
this country Is saying, "Hurry up!" In
two montha. In whatever quarter of
the city one may walk. Italian or tier
man or Jewish, mothers will be dls
patching their offspring on errands, us
lng their native speech, but closing
their orders with the magic "Hurry
up!” How delightfully characteristic
of the nation Is the phrase! It Is lint
to be woudered at that the newcomers
from the slow moving old world tind
that they have brought over uuthitig to
equal It.
"All right" rlvuls "hurry up." not
because foreign tongues lack similar
expressions, blit because there Is a Jol
ly. hall fellow well met air about "All
right" lucklug In other phrases of tlit
same character. I hen. too, "All right'
takes the place not only of "Hood." bill
of "Ye*” and "I understand" and of a
dozen other phrases which In other
languages require separate expressions
The ihlrd phrase, which alone shares
the popularity of the first two. Is. "It's
nice.” This should lie Interesting to
purists who wish to restrict "idee” to
Its first and original meaning of "ex
act." No word of ancestry sufficiently
aristocratic to please them takes the
place of “idee" In Its colloquial mean
ing. and foreigners clasp It with Joy.
wholly Ignorant of the fact that they
nre outraging the feelings of anybody
by so doing. Other phrases besides
“Hurry up." “All right” mid "It's idee"
captivate the fancy of the newly land
ed, hut fhese three relgu supreme.—
New York Tribune.
They Were Not Indlnns.
It Is said that when the first Chinese
came to California the Indians were
very curious about them. A dispute
arose among some of them as to wlmt
country the strangers might hall from
and whether or uot they were Indians'
The Indians, wise us the Puritans of
old, decided to apply the water test.
If the accused swam, they were
witches: If they drowned, they were
innocent.
One day a party of Indlnns met a
party of Chlunmen approaching a lit
tle stream. The strangers approached
the bridge nnd started ncross. The In
dians. too. filed ncross nnd. meeting
the Chinamen In midstream, pushed
two of them Into the angry, spoondug
-current below. The test was conclu
sive. They could uot swim. They
were not Indians.
How to Detect ■ Chenp Shoe.
"It takes a rainy spell to show up a
cheap shoe," says a shoe dealer. “It
can be spotted by au observer on n
rainy day. though It may have conic
within an hour from the store. Watch
the feet of people the next time It rains,
ami you can pick out the luexpenslvc
shoes. A chenp shoe always slips when
-the pavements are wet. Artificial stoue
pavements especially show them up.
The sole of a cheap, common shoe Is
>nuidc of Imitation leather, eonqioRod of
•pressed pujaT, nnd water softens It nnd
nmk.es the wearer slide along while
walking. You can always tell a cheap
.shoe m this way."- Indianapolis News
The lireslral Surrender.
The greatest surrender lu the annuls
of warfare was that of Met* on Oct.
27. 1870. As a fortified place Metz,
with Its surrounding fortt, was pructl-
catty Imprc-uahle. but bad generalship
permitted It to be completely surround
ed tiud cut off. The surrender Included
2 field marshals, U(J generals, G.OCO offi
cers of lower degree, over 400 guns,
100 mitrailleuses, nearly 00 standards
and 173,000 rank and file.
It Is easy enough to smile when yon
tread upon rose leaves, but try It when
each step leaves blood prluts upon the
thorns. Some of the lines lu your face
may curve downward then.

Europeans habitually-forget that ev
try Mussulman Is more or less of n
missionary—that Is, he Intensely de
sires to secure converts from non-Mus-
tuliuon people!!. Such converts uot
only Increase his own cham-e of heav

All the emotions which Impel a Chris

until prosclytlsui has become n pas

Mussulman a fury of ardor which in

Loaded With Pat.
In the good old days when we were
greatly pestered by a neighbor’s sow,
or mule, or bull, or dog. Invading our
premises nnd taking unwarranted lib
ertles we loaded the old shotgun with
powder and fat meat and, after serving
due notice upon said neighbor and said
notice being Ignored, set out to uphold
the first law of nature, self defense.
The amount of execution that can be
done by a wnd of fnt meat on top of n
good charge of powder Is amazing
Wherever It strikes hnlr nnd hide dis
appear. It seldom If ever kills, but
leaves scars that time docs uot obliter
ate. The fnt being salty, causes excru
ciating pain, which lingers long In
memory, und the stricken animal does
not offend ugalu.
A tallow candle can he shot through
n two Inch oak board without Injury to
tlie candle. In like manner a tallow
bullet If driven by a sufficient charge of
powder would penetrate n man’s body
and grease him so well Internally that
he would not care to go dueling again
A glancing shot would plow ugly fur
rows In the skin.—New York Tress.
Two Unities.
Porfirlo Diaz gained national promi
nence nnd won Ills spurs at the battle
of Puebla, where the Liberal forces
made u gallant but Ineffectual stand
against the French who had Invaded
Mexico for the purpose of erecting a
throne for Maximilian. Notwithstand
ing the fnct that the Mexican forces
were defopted, their defense ugnlust
superior numbers was so gallant that
the anniversary of the battle of the 5th
of May became a national holiday tn
-Mexico.
A brusque American once asked the
president, “Why do you Mexicans cele
brate a defeat when you know that the
French finally took Puebla?"
President Diaz, with a twinkle In Ills
eye, replied, "Perhaps we have Imitated
the Americans even to the extent of
celebrating our defeats, for I have been
told that the British defeated the col
onists at Bunker Hill, and yet you built
a monument to commemorate the
event"
Scotch Economy.
A Scottish noble lord, famed among
his friends for his saving, or. ns he
would have put It himself. Ills careful
propensities, went out one day shooting
in his broad moors, accompanied only
by his keeper. After an afternoon's
hard work he sat down to rest and,
ruefully contemplating his bag. observ
ed thoughtfully, “And to think that
each brace has cost me. first and last,
at least 15 shillings. Dounld!”
“Eh, eh!" answered Donald consol
ingly. “Then It’s « mnircy yere hard

It’s a nice bit ye’ve saved, I'm think
