a Pretty Little Story.

MANY hundred years ago, do not
remember just how far back, but histo-
" YoucheS for the truth of the tale,
there lived in Greece an humble potter
named Dibutades. This potter had
pretty daughter named CallirhOe. One
day, so the tale goes, a young man
named EvandeT was sent to school near
Dibutades. He saw and fell in love
with CalllrhOe. The result was that he
entered the employ of the maiden's
father as an apprentice to the trade.
This blissful dream continued for some
months. Then Evander's father learn
ed that his son had deserted his school
for a pOttcr'S workbench. The stern
parent sent for his son In stern haste.
As Evander stood in the humble dwell
ing bidding his beloved Callirhoe good
by, the shadow of his face fell on the
wall in strong relief. CalliThoe saw this
and seiZing piece of charcoal from
tripod which stood IN the loom, made
the youth stand motionlesS while she
sketched the outline on the wall in
black Then the last adieuS were said
and Evander haStened to his home.
When DibUtades entered the room he
saw the black hieroglyphics, as they
seemed to him, disfiguring the wall.
Calling to Callirhoe, he reproved her
severely for backing the white surface.
why, father she cried. '.just look at
the lines" Dlbutades did so and saw
the outlines Of Evander's face and
head. He ran at once and, procuring
some clay, made careful copy of the
outlines, shaping the profile. When he
saw what he had done be knew at once
that a new art had been discovered. To
make the story short, he began model
ing in clay fer medallions, and soon
went on to making statues and busts
by the same means, and in less than
year was rich and famous. CallirhOe,
il the meantime, though fattered by
her fathers success, could not forget the
lost Evander. Soon fame bore a report
that young man had been doing simi,
lar work in Etruria. Dibutades sent for
him, and CalliThOe then discovered that
the modeler was EYander. Well, the
pair were married, and ever since
sculptOrs have first modelled in wax.
There's a pretty story for the lady ad
mirers of sculpturing.

Smart Chinamen,

There were two short-sighted men,
Ching and Chang, who were always
quarreling rs to which of them could
see best. AS they heard there was to
be tablet erected at the gate of a
neighboring temple, they determined
they would visit it together on a given
day, and put the visual powers of each
TO the test. But, desiring to take ad-
vantage of the other, Ching went i'm
mediately to the temple alone ,and look
ing quite close to the tablet. saw an in
scriptlon with the words, ITO the great
man of the past and the future"
Chang also went soon afterwards,
prying yet closer, and in addition to the
inscription, ITO the great man of the
past and the future" read, in smaller
characters, This tablet is raised by the
family of Ling in honor of the great
man." On the day appointed for the
contest, standing at distance from
which neither could read. Ching ex-
claimed, "The inscription is, ITO the
great man of the past and the future. "
True" said Chang; but YOU have left
out a part of the inscription. which
can read but you cannot, and which is
written in small letters, Erected by
the family of Ling in honor of the great
man." There is no such inscription ,
said Chang. There is" said Ching.
So they waxed wroth, and, after abus-
ing one another, agreed to refer the
matter to the high priest of the temple.
He heard their story, and then quietly
said, "Gentlemen, there IS no tab. ct to
read; it was taken into the interior of
the temple yesterday.

BOTH the Mason s. Hamlin organs and
