One Thing to Fear. »
Uncle Joshua was a laconic and
hard headed old country man, who
never let the criticisms of his too
frank neighbors upset his equanimity.
At one of the sessions of the Village
club, which met every day In the post
office for the distribution of the five
o’clock mail, some of the men under¬
took to twit Uncle Joshua about a
tale then going the rounds of one of
his recent horse trades.
"They’re tellln’ all kinds of lies about
you. Josh,” jibed one young blade.
“Wot you goto* to do about it?”
“Do7” replied Uncle Joshua, coolly,
as he spat with unerring accuracy
through the open door. “Nothin’. I
don’t keer how many lies they tell
about me. It’s the truth I’m skeered
of.”—Judge.
Too Familiar.
A certain club has got a new hall
porter. One of the members met him
for the first time and looked him
over.
“Your face seems familiar,” he re¬
marked to the man. “Where have 1
seen you before?”
u I don’t know, T’m sure, sir.” was
the reply.
■ What were you before you came
here?” persisted the member. “Per¬
haps I knew you there.”
“I was a warden at the prison, sir.”
An Emergency Bell.
Hotel Visitor (coming from bath¬
room)— Here, I’ve been ringing for
ages.
Chambermaid—Which bell, sir?
“The bell over the bath."
“Oh, we pay no attention to that
bell, sir. That’s only put there to
case anyone feels faint."
Different Attainments.
“Wealth does not always bring do¬
mestic happiness.”
We must not expect too much," re¬
joined Miss Cayenne. “The fact that
a man can mAe money does not nec¬
essarily Imply that he can make love
with equal success.”—Washington Bve
nlng S'ar.

Schubert onloyed the/privifege of

fatally, in which played viola, his
brother Ferdinptfd /flolin. first violin, Ignu
the second the father the
cello. S jkubcrt’a l'uther was none too
iccuraje' In his playing In the family

Famous Old City.
The Hague has a population of
0.000. It to located In southern
ud. Jtf*9 a' seat fashionable of the Dutch and
handsome city with fine streets and
•venues and attract!** squares.
Foarts Always Popular.
Pearls were known to the ancient*
sad used by them for personal adorn
mont. ft to probabl* that they wore
pearl necklaces. It Is not definitely
known Just who was the first person
to wear one. Marco Polo, the famous
traveler of the Middle ages, describee
the king of Malabar ss wearing
Around bla neck a necklace made of
104 large pearls and rubles.
Odd Kind of Flah.
No fish is stranger than the llttl*
sea-horse. It has a body encased to
rings of bony mall, a horse-shaped
head set at right angles and a pro
hqnsile tall to grasp seaweed In whtafc
It hides. It always floats with Iva
queer head up and erect. Another pe¬
culiar thing about the sea-horse is
that the male fish carries the eggs In a
pouch situated under his tail until the
young are hatched and large enough
to look out for themselves.
Can’t Be Made to Work.
A good many so-called perpetna
motion machines have been invented
and the patent office records dlsclosi
hundreds of these. The chlet dlfflcultj
with all of them Is the same the fact
that they do not work, Sdentlsti
have shown that perpetual motion If
an Impossibility and Inventors an
wasting their time and energy by aft
tempting to produce such a machln*
that will work.

Fear and Anger.
Hear and anger are differently de¬
veloped In different animals. A frog
or and a Qjibbtt has only fear, while tigers
weaslea usually show only anger.
Gome men are built the same way.
Fear and finger are. therefore, op¬
posite moods, the first the impeller of
flight, the second of fight.
Rings of Trass.
The structure of the wood devtft
oped In the summer Is different from
that which Is developed to autumn,
and the alternation makes the lines of
growth show plainly. Some tropical
trees show no annular rings, probably
Indicating that the growth is identical
throughout the year
