The former are thrust upon her and the latter are the best she can .buy with her allowances. By and by, if the thing keeps up, we. may expect to see the divorce cases written up in the society col umns of the newspapers just like the weddings. The' case of the young woman who is serving a term of Eight months in the Fulton 00. ehuingang for vagran cy, and who refuses a pardon unless an old woman who befriended her is pardoned also, reveals the pathetic Side of proverty of which the multi tude rarely hear. Never lose faith in human nature. This is a good place to be in, right hero on this old earth. Lots of nice folks here. too. The throuble is that munv of us got a notion that we are the only good people left in the world. But we are not. When we get to thinking that way, it is a sure sign we need to t ake a trip out. into the world and see what is going on there. GIRI.B just because u young man nas a buggy and a horse that can go fast, do not conclude that he is just the man you must have for a hus band. Takes something more than that to make a sensible girl haopy. Look fora man. Don’t be in a hurry. There are lots of thorn in the world, only it takes a little time to find them. Governor Folk of Missouri was caught, in the act of accepting a bribe in exchange for a pardon. The pris ioner was sent to jail for six years for false registration, but does not seem to have understood what he was doing. His wife, with her three chil dren, came to see the governor, but he was still in doubt. The prison er's 5-year-old daughter approached him timidly and said, “If you let my papa go I’ll give you a kiss." The governor replied a trifle huskily ; “All right, little girl, you shall take him home with you." Sometimes Just But Often Severe. i There is no doubt that many judi cial officers use their powers for ap. pression, or to gain applause, and sometimes they overshoot the mark, here is a conspicuous cue. Last week a nigger in Atlanta swapped a watch for a horse. It afterwards turned out that the horse was lazy or tired and lay down in the street and re fused to budge. After using all manner of p ersuasion known to be usually effective, and failing to move him tha nigger swapped him to another nig ger for the promise of a drink of whis key. At this junction a policeman came on the scene, and failing to get either nigger to own the horse, had it killed, and carried the niggers to Judge Broiles court, where they were promptly fined f0.75 each. Where the puzzle comes iu is what had eith er nigger done to merit a fioe.^ The Recorder’s court in Atlanta may be a factor in restraining crime but It smacks of tyranny and oppression, md there are others of the same kind.

A Fiery Speech. William O’Brien in Ins “Bccollec tions” gives this picture of Timothy Ilealy’s first appearance in parliament: “A quarter of an hour after he took his sent ns member for Wexford be started up to make bis maiden speecli -tlny of frame, sardonic of visage, ids hands in his breeches pockets, as coolly insolent as a Parisian gamin, as entirely de testable as a small Diogenes, peering over ttie rims of his pincenez as from his till), through bilious eyes over his contemptible audience-—and horrified tin* house of commons with the follow ing exordium: ‘Mr. Speaker, if the noble marquis (Ilartington) thinks he is going to bully us with his high and mighty Cavendish ways, all I can tell him is he will find himself knocked into a cocked hat in a jiffy, and we will have to put him to the necessity of wip ing tin* blood of all the Cavendishes from his noble nose a good many times before he disposes of us.’ ” A Singular Dream. A singular dream is related in a well known British magazine. A woman suffering from anxiety caused by re duced circumstances dreamed that she went to church. “The people began to go out one by one. I looked around and inquired why they were leaving tl>e church. They said: ‘To look for the magic bird in the churchyard. You will always have luck if you find it.’ I thought I would try to find it. went out and swept away the fallen leaves nml found a speckled thrush, and ns soon as I took It up it dropped £1 in my hand. The next morning I went into our back garden and there among the fallen leaves was the speckled thrush, which had Just been killed by a cat. It was yet warm. Isa%. ‘Here is the magic bird, and the money I know will come by post.’ The hope was justified, for £1 came in the morn ing ami a check from a friend in the evening.” The Unexpected. A curious story is that of the late Colonel Harry MeCnlmont of the Brit ish army. He was a poor man when he went to the reading of his uncle’s will, hoping that perhaps the departed might have remembered him to the extent of an old watch. True euough, the lawyer read out the words, “To my nephew, Harry McCalmont, I leave my watch and chain.” The legatee was satisfied, and, leaning back, he drowsed, lulled by the monotonous tones of the lawyer as he read through the long Instrument. At the close he arose to go. “1 congratulate you,” said the solicitor. “I don’t know why you should,” said the other. “You are residuary legatee,” remarked the law yer. “You will have £4.000 annually for the first five years from this date, and afterward you will inherit some £7,000,000.” Point of Resemblance.

It is perfectly well knowu to every one that water constantly dropping upon a stone will wear It away. aiuS( there is a trite old proverb regarding tills fact. The force of a single drop of water falling from a height is not groat, but the results of this tiny blow when it is many' times repeated are astounding. There is a story of one l>oor wretch who was bound with his hack to a stone wall and had a stream of water “of the bigness of a mans finger” directed on to his bare head, the water falling from a height of about eighteen feet. The receptacle from which this apparently harmless stream trickled was a barrel holding only twenty gallons, but before the water had more than half run out the man was dead, with a hole in his skull which exposed the brain.—Popular Me chanics.

The Thames has been the cause of much controversy. Its name has been variously stated as Tame3es, Tamese, Tamises (at the juncture of the Isis and Tame, near Dorchester), Tamisa, Tamesa, Thamisia, Tliamesis and final ly Isis (where it flows between the Ox fordshire and the Buckinghamshire shores). Tlius at Oxford it is still of ten called the Isis until it receives the shallow' river Tame just below Doches ter, from which point it is called Thames. Historians trace this error to an early attempted division of the Latin word Tamesis into two words, Tame esis or Tame isis, suggested per haps by the existence of the Tame iu Buckinghamshire. The Saxons called it the Thames, ancient maps and docu ments designating it Thamesis Fluvius. —From “Iu Thameslaud.V Fresh Air. Fresh air clears the cobwebs from the brain, puts new strength into the muscles, anew life into the blood, a new lightness into the step. It brushes away the petty ills that bother every day life and helps one to bear with greater patience. It strengthens the shoulders for the burdens that are laid upon them. It makes the hardest work lighter and the hardest day brighter. Easy. ‘‘Well,” pondered the new answers-to correspondents editor: “I wonder how to answer this. Here’s a subscriber who wants to know what’s a good thing to take ink stains out of white flannel.” “That’s easy,” replied the sporting editor* “a pair of scissors.”^ The Ambitious Boy. A hoy at seventeen can practically determine for himself whether he will lie a simple burden bearer for others as long as ho lives, a leech on society or whether he will be a broadminded, useful and successful man. If the boy at this age has no ambition to be anybody and is content to simply let things flicker and take iiis chance with others just like him, frittering away his opportunities to acquire knowledge and caring only for the trivialities of life, he can make up his mind to carry a hod, ride the brake beam of a freight car or dodge the police ns long as he lives, or he can resolve to lie a in the highest sense, seek every means! for physical, mental and moral growth! and development and must graduate! Into the ever widening field of utility and success. It matters little what his boyhood environment may be, if he but has the ambition and well ground ed purpose he will climb out of it.— Pittsburg Press. Cinderella. It was in ancient Egypt that the story of Cinderella originated. Moderns, however, owe the familiar nursery story directly to the Frenchman, Charles Perrault, whose “Cindrillon” appeared at the end of the seventeenth century. Perrault took his Cinderella from earlier versions, which came no doubt from the story of Rhodopis’ bath. That Egyptian beauty had prepared to bathe when an eagle swooped on one of her slippers, carried it to Memphis and dropped, it on the lap of King Psammeticbus as he sat administering justice. He admired it, had Egypt searched for its owner, married her and lived happy ever after.
