Debt of Honor.

England, which is rich in gentlemen,
furnished, in the beginning of the pres.
ent century, good model OF that genius
which the world loves in Charles James
Fox, who added to his great abilities the
most social disposition and real love OF
men. A characteristic anecdutr is re.
lated Of the celebrated orator and states
man:
a tradesmau who had long dunned
Mr.. Fox for note of three hundred
suineas found him one day counting
gold, and demanded paymentof his long
due note,
81 cannot pay you now" said Fox. 81
owe this money to Sheridan; it is debt
Of honor. III an accident should happel
10 me he has nothing to show to main
tain his claim"
Then, said the creditor, Il chang
my debt into 4 debt of honor" and tor,
the note in pieces
Fox thanked the man for his conf
dence, and paid him, saying: His deb
was of older standing, and Sheridan
must wait"
Fox was the lover of liberty, friend OF
the Hindoo. friend of the African slave
he possessed great personal popularity
and Napoleon said of him, on the occa
sion of his visit to Paris in 1905: "Mr
Fox will always hold the first place in an
assembly at the Tuieries. =" - Youths

narnum's Ancient Anecdote.

Barnum himself is an infant in arms
us compared with the age of this story.
1t is about the meanest man on earth.
A grocer and general dealer advertised
a drink with each purchase. He took
trade. A mean man came in with
an egg worth cent and traded it for q
darning needle, also worth cent Then
he demanded his drink and took sherry.
He said he always had to have an egg in
his sherry and the dealer broke the egg
he had just received from him in the
sherry. 1t happened that the egg had
two yolis, and so the meanest man de-
manded two darning needles because of
the two yolks.-Detroit Free Press.

His PRAYER Answered.

A certain Chicago coal man enjoys
nothing more than he does a romp with
his two pretty boys. After supper ev
cry night he has great fun with them
One evening last week his wife was
taken sick, and he cut short the usual
romp, much to the disappointment Of
the boys, who had been looking forward
all day to his Homecoming. He told
them it was time for them to go to bed.
and, like obedient boys, they walked of
without a word of remonstrance. Silent
Iy they disrobed and prepared to retire
The larger boy said his prayer and found
his way between the sheets. Then the
little fellow knelt down by the bedside.
uttered his prayer and added: please,
God, make papa funny some more" And
the father, who had been waiting Just
outside the door to see that they retired
all right, overheard the petition and
went in and gave his two boys another
great romp. The little fellow then re-
tired in the firm belief that his prayer
had been answered. Chicago Herald.

prise in Tennessee.
A dignified looking stranger entered
the ticket office of the st. Louis, Iron
Mountain and Southern railroad yes
terday, and stated that he wished to
purchage tickets for himself and family
to Texas, and also wanted to ee-
cure rates for the transportation of a
carload of household furniture. Col
Harry Wilson waited on the gentleman,
and ascertained that his name was Mar
tin. He negotiated trade with him
for the tickets, ard referred him to the
freight office on Monroe street for infor-
nation about freight rates.
AS the stranger displayed a goodly
role of Doodle it was incumbent on Col.
Wilson to treat him with the considera-
ton due his importance, and so he told
Billy to take the colonel over and intro
duce him to Mr. BARLEY, and he took
care to lay the accent on the colonel.
Billy got the stranger safely over to
the freight Office, and in his politest
manner presented him to Win BARLEY
as follows "Mr. BARLEY, allow me to

Neteoroloel.ts and ElRel,, Tower

French mcteorologists, it appears, have
just discovered that the Eiffel tower will
prove far more valuable to them for OBJ
servation than was at first imagined.
Indeed, it ijaaid that it possesses most of
the advantages of an observatory built
upon a mountain. In confirmation of
this it is stated that recently, while a Sc
we're frost prevailed in the city, a strong,
warm breeze was blowing at the summit
Of the tower, and it was three days be-
fore rethistemperature reached the ground.
In no elevated observatory could such
direct vertical observations be made as
here. Photography will be pressed into
service at this elevated position, as a
matter of course.-Journal of Photog-

The Festive Frog.

A frog in the first stages of its career
gives no hint as to what it will eventu-
ally become. AS far as looks go one
would suppose it was going to be cat
fish 1t spends the first days of its ex-
istence swimming about in some pool,
industriously wagging the small tail
that is appended to one end of his little
round, egg-shaped body. BY and by a
pair of legs begin to stick out from
under its vest. These it uses for time
to kick with, and then moves them up
close to its collar to make way for its
long and esculant hind legs.
1t is then that the little bright eyed
fellow disclaims any further relationship
with his tail and even goes so far as to
cut its acquaintance entirely, and quits
the water forever except for bathing
purposes Taking up its abode on the
land, it soon grows into an article of
commerce much sought after and priced
by epicures. Philadelphia Times.

the most handsome fishes in our waters,

after. 1t is known to ichthyologists as

equaled in flavor by any other fish in

Inliarmonious Coins.

All coins out of harmony with our

stand on the order of their going.
The gold one dollar and the three dollar
pieces have practically gone out of cir

cent nickel. These three are not in har-
mony with our coinage system and mar

are too easily lost. Washington Star

A STORY OF THE BAREFOOT Boy"

On Haverhill's pleasant hill there played,
Some seventy years ago,
In turned up trousers, battered hat,
Patches and freckles and all that
The barefoot boy we know.
He roamed his berry fields content,
But while, from bush and brier,
The nimble feet got many scratch,
His wit, beneath It's homely thatch,
Aspired to something higher.
Over his dog-eared spelling book,
Or schoolboy composition,
Puz2ling his head with some hard sum,
Going for nuts, or gathering gum.
He cherished his ambition.
Kind nature smiled on that wise child,
Nor could her love deny him
The large fulfillment of his plan;
Since he who lifts his brother man
In turn is lifted by him.
He reached the starry nights of peace
Before his head was hoary;
And now at fourscore years again
The blessings of his fellow men
Watt him crown of glory.
