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.
