THE SCHEME WORKED.
A lohrm« by Which Brown Qalctcd
111* Wife’s intplchtn,
To be perfectly honest. Brown does
not go to his Griswold street office
every night that he tells his wife he
Is going there. The business which he
says is pressing Is frequently lmugi
nary and the man whom he is going
to meet does not exist. He belongs
to n club, and clubs have their attrac¬
tions. Ho thought that his wife was
growing suspicious, and Brown is re¬
sourceful.
On the evening In question, as the
lawyers would say, ho told her that
theve was a matter of business that
could not possibly he deferred until the
next day. About 9 o’clock she nuswer
ed the 'phoue and was asked If Brown
was at home, and she replied that be
was nt his office.
"Guess uot,” was the alarming re¬
sponse. “1 was Just down there and
all looked dark ”
She rung off viciously, If women ever
do such things, ordered a coupe, told
the driver to go as fast ns the ordi¬
nance allows, kept tukiugon temper us
she went and flew up stairs to the
ollh-c as though a mouse were In hot
pursuit. Her husband met her smil¬
ingly. Insisted that she lmd given him
a delightful surprise, put his easiest
chair near the light, handed her a pa
per and apologized for having to re¬
sume work that would possibly keep
him till 3. She could not explain, she
could not keep awake, she was asham¬
ed of herself, and after lamely telling
him that she had dreamed that he was
ill she left.
In ten minutes he was at the club
. and shook hands with a man who smil¬

A Kina’* K«Ar of Wonun'i Bcnuty.
Charles XII of Sweden feared only
one power In the world, the power of
beauty; only a handsome woman could
boast of making him quail—she put
him to flight. He said; "So umuy he¬
roes have succumbed to the attractions
of tt beautiful face! Did not Alexan¬
der, my pet, burn u town to please a
ridiculous adventuress? I want my
life to be free from such weakness;
history must not find such a stain upon
St."
He was told one day that a young
girl had come to sue for justice on be¬
half of a blind octogenarian father
maltreated by soldiers. The first In¬
clination of the king, a strict disciplina¬
rian, was to rush straight to the plain¬
tiff. to hear the details of the misde¬
meanor for himself, but suddenly stop¬
ping he asked. “Is she good looking?"
And being assured that she was both
very young and unusually lovely, he
sent word that she must wear a veil,
otherwise be would not listen to her.—

The Presbyteriau Review tails of a
Scottish minister who reminded the
Lord in a prayer, “For. us thou Unow
est, men do uot gather grapes of thorns
nor tigs of the national emblem.”
"This delicate reference to the this¬
tle as the uational emblem of Scotland
is delicious.” says The Review, "but
how It would have surprised the writ
ers of the four gospels!"

"It’s always dangerous to jump at
conclusions." said the careful man.
"You're liable to make yourself ridicu¬
lous. to say the least."
"That’s right” replied the Jersey
commuter. “I jumped at the couclu
sion of a ferryboat once and missed
It"—Catholic Standard and Times.
