Sine wa. ThoroughIy sati.aed.

1t takes a good deal to disturb the
equanimity of a thoroughly well ordered
mind, as the following incident illus
trates:
Old Aunt Sally Pratt, all her life a
resident of a certain New England vii
lage, was one day sitting by her f~avorite
window in an upper chamber of her
house. The afternoon was warm and
Aunt Sally suddenly dropped asleep.
The window was open, and, ten minutes
later, the old lady fell forward, and, to
the borrow of several persons who saw
her, she fell out of the window to the
ground below. When picked up she
gathered herself together in an amazingly
short time, glanced up at the window and
said calmly:
well, well; I've often set at that
winder n wondered how it'd feel to go
a-tumblin' out it, and now I know.
Well, well, WE'LL Queer how things do
turn out sometimes.n
The fact that she had turned herself
out of the window gave her no concern,
although she narrowly escaped being
killed.-Detroit Free Press.

The simple city man who has labored
hard for six days, and needs really to lie
on his back n day in the week and rest,
dresses on this hot Sunday morning more
deliberately and painfully than ever. He
puts on more starch and more stiffness.
So does his wife; SO do the children.
They then go forth in the hot sun to seek
for pleasure. They do not get it in the
streets. They board the car. The car is
crowded with other stiff and starched,
hot and flushed Sunday pleasure seekers.
There is no pleasure on the car. They
go, then, on board the excursion boat.
1t is rammed, damned and crammed
with pleasure skekers. The air is warm
from a thousand human corporal fur
naces so near together, and the shady
seats are all claimed. Little pleasure is
found there. They land at the s'summer
garden" They toll up a steep hill. They
toll down again at night. The boat is
not now crowded; it is packed. 1t is
compressed with tired bodies. They ar
rive in the city. Everything is now ar
irving in the city. There are waits for
cars, and cars more crowded than ever,
and nothing but stand up seats. They
get home at last, long after dark. 1t has
been a bard days work, and on Monday
morning the simple man of the house,
who doth not 'foresee the evil and hide
himself, wonders why he feels SO tired
and jaded.-Prentice Milford in New
York Star.

A matrimonial discovery on the east
side is that of a store kept by a woman
who, as a feature of her business in
ladies' underwear, rents out the linen
portions of bridal outfits. She enables a
girl of moderate to go on n
tour, or to spend the honeymoon in
town, happy in the wearing of those por-
tions of a trousseau as elegant us might
content a Fifth avenue belle. Fine text
ures, elaborate embroidery, and all the
whimsical frills known to lingerie, are at
her command on rental. At an outlay
Of five or six dollars she can buy a
months use of these beautiful and soul
satisfying garments. The proprietor said
that she was doing very well in that line.
She had in stock dozen outfits, as cheap
as So to as dear as $40 per month, and
most of the time they were hired out.
She altered them to fit her customers,
and freshened them up by new embellish-
ments as fast as they showed year.

Tiny Pipes for Women.

The question, do nice women smoker
brings up a very pretty implement with
which they may smoke if they so choose.
The latest novelty exhibited In a Broad
way jewelry store Is a tiny pipe that
only a woman could carry to her lips.
Its stem Is a trife shorter and smaller in
diameter than the average meerschaum
and is made of gold set with garnets,
moonstones and emeralds. The mouth
piece is Of yellow and pink veined onyx,
and the bowl, which might hold half a
thimbleful, is heavily set with small
gems. The toy is worth something like
800, and at a gilt edged fine affair when
cigars are brought In with the coffee, if
q lady chooses to remain at the close of
dinner, it may make a prettier combina-
ton than beauty and the cigarette.
The jeweler says that the first pipe of
this sort was made to order for a woman
of some social position, and that he has
had four or five calls for them since. The
talk of ladies smoking is much exagge-
rated, however. There are numbers of
Cubans and Spaniards and some French
women Of beauty and position who buy
cigarettes in person, smoke them at din
ners and offer them to lady friends in
their boudoirs. But they are only i'm
porting a foreign custom, which does not
strike any strong root here.-New York
Mail and Express.

In Guatemala chocolate has always
been made in the form of round cakes OF
varying thickness, and during the adj
ministration of President Carrera, who
governed from 1910 to 1865, the fertile
Jesuitical brain discovered a new use for
these chocolate cakes. AT this time
throughout Central America the Jesuits
were very wealthy and powerful. See
ing the clouds gathering which burst
with such fury upon them in Barrios'
rise, they determined 20 transfer their
immense stores Of gold to European and
other foreign stations of their order, but
there existed a heavy export duty ON
gold. To evade this they decided to ship
chocolate, and in the secrecy of their
their own houses they nodded thirty
two ounces of gold into each cake of
chocolate, placed the cargoes ON pack
mules under trusted men, and sent them
to Livingston, the nearest port, for ship
ment to Europe. A vigilant officer at
that port discovered the fraud, and the
government conficated the entire lot,
over $400, 900, and, strangely enough,
had strength enough to refuse to return
1t. The same idea was not tried again,
but who knows how many times it had
succeeded before2-Cor. New York Times.

The rule to study closely and c%ontinu-
ously is a mistake. The 'hard STUDENT
of whom we hear is a blunder. 1 go SO
far as to say the true rule of study is to
apply the mind only when work is easy,
and when you are prepared beforehand
to make it easy. Those who labor twelve,
or ever ten hours a day, could accom-
plish more if they labored, with discre-
ton, four hours or five hours or six
hours a days, divided into two sections
of three hours each. In reality there Is
nothing a man will find SO very easy as
brain work if he is in condition. Under
stand, it is precisely Like any other con-
tesla race or a rowing match or as In
a horse race-''condition" is the first
thing to be looked after. Healthy and
judicious brain work is both easy and
delightful, and it should never be per-
formed when it is not SON. Maurice,
NJ. D., in Globe-D Democrat.

The explanation once offered, that the
-Iosaic prohibition of certain animals,
especially the hog, as food, was founded
in profound hygienic wisdom, is not now
considered satisfactory. Pork in good
condition is recognized to be as healthful
food as other meats in the same condi-
ton throughout the world, and it is now
eaten with the same immunity in Syria
as in Ohio. The modern Israelites offer
most interesting notes to the ethnologist
by their continued preservation, in the
midst of a high civilization. of the re-
ligious taboo of savagery. This rite has
had paramount influence beyond that of
their written doctrines, in their segrega-
ton from the nations in which they have
sojourned; and, now hat it is becoming
less strictly observed, there are evidences
of their ceasing to be a peculiar people

l believe it is well established that some
of the social and associated creatures
have a code of punishment. / have seen
sparrows deliberately join in the punish
ment of q rogue. At least so it seemed
to me, although I could not discover the
special fault of the delinquent. 1t is
especially interesting to see the indigna-
ton exceedingly by all the birds when a
prowling hawk has despoiled a nest.
Come onl" shouts the king bird; and

1t was early in March, long years ago,
when n of the pioneer settlers of Ok
ford county made up his mind to move
his family from Massachusetts to that
f~avorite region. He had seven little ones
and feared they could not endure SO long
a journey and the piercing cold. How
do you think he took care of them? The
father obtained from n neighbor a great
basket. twelve feet by six, and four feet
high. 1t was fitted on an OK sled and
was made for the purpose of transporting
grass seed. The seven little ones were
packed in straw in this basket, like 80
many kittens or pigs, and made the jour-
ney safe and warm. The basket is yet
preserved by the pioneers descendants.
