GAMB LERS' LUCK.
A Joke Which Brought a l ortoae t«
Its iouocrnt Victim.
Having lost every cent of his ready
money at the gaining tables, an Eng¬
lish visitor at Monte Carlo wired a
pathetic appeal for help to a friend id
England. Two days later he received
a letter addressed in the friend's hand¬
writing which on being opened reveal¬
ed a five pound note.
Without pausing to rend the letter,
the plunger hastened to -Ciro's, the fa¬
tuous restaurant in the Gules:Ie Charles
III., and changed his "fiver”, into
French money. From Ciro's he went
straight iuto the Casino, where, ex¬
periencing an extraordinary run of
luck, he not merely retrieved all his
previous losses, but g:\lued a substan¬
tial increase into the bargain.
Weary of play, he retired with a few
cronies to Ciro's again to celebrate the
occasion. The usually genial M. Ciro
met him at the door of his establish¬
ment with if flood of reproaches and
upbraidings. The five pound note was
bad! He waved It angrily in the
plunger’s face—mais oul, it was false,
this five pound note!
The pluugcr took the guilty "fiver”
und scrutinized it carefully. It was
one of the sham bank notes issued by
Sir Augustus Harris and bore on Its
face an advertisement of the Drury
Lane pantomime. The English friend,
himself as “broke" as the Monte Carlo
plunger, had posted him the flagrantly
worthless note as a joke—a joke which
had the plunger taken the trouble to
examine the "fiver” or reud Its cover¬
ing letter he would have seen only too
clearly himself. It was fortunate that
he did not do so. He merely puid Giro
his £5 and, Inviting the pacified res¬
taurateur to share in the champagne,
pretended that the whole affair was aa
Intentional witticism.
The conceit of a croupier, who fondly
Imagined that he understood the Eng¬
lish language, was iustrumeutal In pre¬
senting another and far less experi¬
enced Britisher with 1,000 francs.
This gentleman, handing a 1,000 franc
billet to the croupier in Question, ask¬
ed for plaques in exchange for it.
Plaques are the large five louts gold
pieces peculiar to Monaco. The crou¬
pier, fancying that the player had said
“black" and was requesting him to
place the note on the "black” com¬
partment of tile cloth, did so unob¬
served. Black duly turned up, und the
croupier politely handed 2,000 francs
to the surprised’ Britisher.—Ward Muir
In Chambers’ Journal.
POINTED PARAGRAPHS.
Ignorance may not be bliss, but it Is
often contentment.
Everybody has trouble of some kind.
What is the nature of yours?
The average Wish is about as valua¬
ble ns die check of a bankrupt.
People are confronted every day with
little problems and do not know what
to do with them.
Some men s Idea of perseverance Is to
see how long they can cherish ill feel¬
ing for some real or fancied grievance.
No matter how busy g, man Is he
thinks he Isn't wasting tlriie If he takes
an hour to prove he was right In a
most trifling question.
After you have worked hard and
saved your money It makes you mad to
bo approached by a man who his spent
his und be Invited to go Into a scheme
that Is solely for Ills benefit.—Atchison
Globe.
Queer Drummers.
“There’s a story," said a drummer,
“about a commercial traveler whose
Hue was tunnels und post holes for
fences. Him 1 never met. I did meet
once, though, a drummer seliiag Iron
churches ami suspension bridges. An¬
other time 1 met a drummer who said
his line was pupils. What did he mean
by pupils? He meant, I found, glass
eyes for stuffed animals, for dolls and
for human beings. One- of this man's
favorite amusements was to oi»en his
sample case and ask the people present
to pick out tile eye that best matched
their own. The people made awful
mistakes in tills, for nobody, it seems,
knows the color of his own eyes.”—
Cincinnati Enquirer.
What Father Does.
Mothers may talk, work, struggle to
make their sons models by which to
shape u new heaven and a new earth.
But the boy's world is In the man
who Is his father, and the boy believes
tliat whatever may he right on Sun¬
days or at prayer times the things that
are really good, that really count In
life, are what father does. Moreover,
it Is what father does which defines
the means with which the boy shall
work, the sphere wherein Ida efforts
shall be shaped. In a word, what fa¬
ther does Is the beginning as It Is the
end of the hoy’s achievements.—Har¬
per’s Bazar.
Prppucioufl Fox.
Charter James Fox Is probably the
only man who ever made a maiden
speech in the commons while still a
youth in Ids teens. He was nineteen
when he took his seat for Midburst,
and within a few months he had made
three excellent speeches. And yet
even gt this early age Fox used fre¬
quently to sit up all night drinking and
gambling.
An Explanation Wonted.
“I’d like to know," began the thought¬
ful boarder.
“Would like to know what?” asked
the boarder who knew It all.
“I'd like to know how ‘matches are
made in heaven’ when they keep all
the brimstone in the other plac'e."—Chi¬
cago News.
