What Allied Jones.

Brown and Jones used to be friends
real good friends-but there is a chasm
between them now. Jones didn't know
of 1t until Brown had passed him several
times without saluting, and then he de-
termined TO know what was wrong.
Hating him on the street. he began
See here, Brown, what's come over
You all of sudden? q
Sir" replied Brown, with freezing
dignity, as he drew himself up an extra
inch.
"What have 1 said or done to break
our friendship" continued Jones.
"Mr. Jones, You are not the sort OF
man supposed you to be-" answered
Brown.

ty convention?

vcntion? DO YOU remember that L said

"Oh, YES, You said that perhaps you

ton of County Treasurer.
"Yes, sir. l said that 1 was in the

"And l didn't get vote, sir-not

"No, l guess you didn't, and now You
blame me for it. Alas Brown, how hit

Why, sir, every man who attended a
ward caucus over three times knows that
when a candidate puts himself III the
hands of his friends they at once pro-
coed to hold funeral and bury the re-
mains ten feet deep"
Jones made motion as il to shake
hands and forgive all, but suddenly
changed his mind and walked on, care
fully placing each heel with thud, and
keeping his spinal column as stiff as a
poker.-Frce Press.

The inheritance of Vegetables.

Says a writer on dietary The NtCr-

the principles Necessary iur the grown
and support of the booty. ~ we'll aH ''

yidcd that he selects vegetables wiii' IA
contain all the essential clements named.
But he must for TINS purpose c"n,'ltne
the best cereals wheat or oats; or the
lcCIImes-hans. peas. or lentilS; or he
must swallow and digest a large weight
of vegetable matter of less nutritious
value, and, therefore, ut least containing
one element III large excess III order 1"
obtain all the elements he needs. Thus
the Irishman requires for his support ten
or eleven pounds of potatoes daily. which
contains chiefly starch, of which he con-
sumcs Il superiiuou> quantity, very little
nitrogen, and scarcely any fat ; hence he
obtains when he can some huttcrmllk or
bacon, or Il herring, to supply the de
iicicncv. The Highlander. living mann
lv on oatmeal. requires much smaller
weight; this gram contains not only
starch but much nitrogen, and ialr
amount of fat. although not quite sui
ticient for his purpose, which Is usually
supplied by adding milk or little bacon
to his diet. On the other hand, the
man who lives chiefly or largely on flesh
and eggs as well AS bread obtains pre-
cisely the same principles, but served
in a concentrated form, and weight of
about two or three pounds of such food
is IA full equivalent to the Irishman's ten
OF eleven pounds of potatoes and extras.
ACCORDING to the London Times, the
Sunday-schools of Great Britain are
lacking in discipline, and are noted for
the irregularitv in which the children
attend them. These schools are also de-
ficient in the picnic and festival element
which makes some American Sunday
schools attractive.

Care Of the Eyes.

The most serious trouhle with read

from thsa peculiar wssk, weak ewes

of readers and writersN&e careless, and
most Of thepn, sooner or later, pay the
penalty by being forced to give up night
work entirely-some to give mp reading,
except at short intervals, under the best
conditions, and now and then one loses
the eyesight entirely after it is too late
to take warning. Greek, German. short
hand, or any other characters differing
from the plain Roman type, make a
double danger. The custom is to laugh
at all warnings till pain or weakness
makes attention Imperative, and then it
is often too late to avert the mischief.
Few comprehend the vast number We
fippantly call a million, out it takes
million letters to make up fair-sizod
volume of 500 pages, forty lines to the
page. fifty letters to the line. 4 reader
makes an easy day of reading this, but
his eyes must go over thousand thou
sand letters We can do no better ser
vice to readers and writer's than to call
attention to this great danger of failing

| too good, for the eyes. Every tyro

from a plain, white surface is very try

are reported to indicate some yellowish

pers, inks that show little color on first
writing, faint lead pencil marks that can
be read only by straining the eyes, are
fruitful sources of mischief. So is bad
writing. The bad paper. ink and pen

good sense to use. The intelligent pub
lie should so clearly show its disgust at
the fine type, solid matter, poor paper
and poor printing which some publish

"What! what loafer dared make that

the old gent.
Yes, and he said you was a political
lickspittle."
LAND O gracious but wouldn't l

about five minutes !" wheezed the old
man, Is he hoped around.
II put up with that" continued the
boy, "and then he said you laid your

''' In memory's mellowed light we behold
not the thorns, we see only the beau

To be comfortable and contented,
spend less than yOu can earn-an art
which few have learned.
None more impatiently suffer injuries
than those who are always most forward
in doing them.
Pride is as loud beggar as want, and
great deal saucier. When You have
bought one fine thing. You must buy ten

A CITY Built or SheIls.

Perhaps you do not know that the
city Of Paris il built mostly of shells,
the cast-off houses of uncounted mill.
ions Of little creatures. Each shell is
not as big - . millet seed, and the lit
tie creatures lived in them ages ago.
There were 80 many Of them in the sea
that they settled into real mountains
became oemented together, and
now the mountains Of shells
form the quarries where most Of the
Paris building stone is procured.
The shells are shaped like that Of snail.
and are 90 plentiful in the Paris stone
that one (cubic) inch is said to contain
IS, 900 Of them. Besides this they are
found all over the world, not only in
stone. but in the sands on the shore.
