Some Familiar Quotations.

Waipote, the prime minister of the
Georges, is misquoted in the expression
"All men have their price" He never
said SO, and entertained no such narrow
views of mankind. He was referring tc
certain persons, and said, "All these
men have their price" money is
the root of all evil" is another misquotec
quotation. and wide deviation from
the truth. The love of money is the
root Of all evil" is the correct quotation
"Love me little, love me long" is q
household phrase sometimes supposed tc
have originated with Charles Reade, be.
cause he wrote novel by that name.
Those who are familiar with the poets
know that the expression originated
with Christopher Marlowe, and is found
in his jew of Malta" 1t was after
ward given new impetus by Rober
Observation-Disclosures Ledger.

Webster's Income,

The legal profession of the present lay
will be surprised to learn that Mr.. Web
ster, the greatest American lawyer of
his time. made but $15, 900 year by his
practice. But the fees of counsel be-
tween 1910 and 1850 were not what they
have been since. an
In 1848 accompanied client to Mr..
Websters office in Boston and asked
him to name a retaining fee in an i'm
portant patent case. He said he thought
a couple of hundred dollars would do.
When the case was tried his fee was only
$1,000 On another occasion paid him
a retaining fee Of $4,000 for the nroprie-
tors of the Goodyear india rubber pat
emit
His fee for arguing the great equity
cause of Goodyear versus Day in the cir
cult court of the United States for the
district of New Jersey, by which he es-
tablished the validity of the Goodyear
patent, was $4,000. This was in the
spring of 1862, and was the last case he
ever argued.
His professional income from 1918 to
1923. during which period he was out of
congress, averaged, l think. $4,000 a
year.-Cor. New York Sun.

The Monogram Must Go.

A momentary fancy prevailing among
fashionables shows an entire discarding
OF the long cherished monogram. No
longer do artistically entwined initials
decorate cardcases, portemonnaies, etc.
Form dictates that whether for change
purse, memorandum book or satchel, an
antique silver coin shall be sunk in the
leather on the upper corner of the arti-
Gle. The crest of the owner is boldly
engraved on the bit of metal, while let
tered like motto the name runs around
it in quaint characters. Smart folks,
scrupulously observant of fashions va
carries, also confne their selections of
note paper to mauve gray and very soft
blue, the colors being invariably EN-
bossed with silver. Shaded colors are a
novelty, but conservative and possibly
the best style women still hold to ivory
toned paper and silver lettering as pref

A Two Hundred Dollar Speech.

a certain well known German ply
stefan of the south side was the victim of
his own 'previousness" the other day.
He had successfully treated wealthy
lady's daughter for diphtheria. and the
lady was extremely grateful for ut. When
the child was thoroughly we'll mother
and daughter appeared at the physicians
office. The little girl shyly handed the
physician a neat little knit purse, while
the lady went on to say: For having
saved my child, doctor. want to pre-
sent you with this purse.
But, said the physician, after an en-
barrassing pause. 81 have sent yoa bill
for $780,
The lady flushed, then said qaietly:
Let me have the purse, please.
She took two 800 bills out of it and
returned it to him with the remark:
There are $500 in there now. so your
bill is paid" and left the room.
Now the doctor is cursing his clumsy
tongue for the bad break it made. That
little speech cost him $20O.-St. Leuis

Father and Sea-.

!. A fine young fellow was disinherited
by his father, well to do grazier and
cattle dealer, for marrying a domestic
servant in the village. The father not
only cut him out of his will, but turned
him out of the house and dismissed him
from his employment The young man
took service in the county police, and
was shortly appointed to his own vii
lage. But in a year or two he inherited
a snug fortune from brother of his
fathers, with whom the latter had a
deadly feud, and the old grazier was so
put out at his sons good fortune that he
cut his throat Almost the last work
the son had to do before leaving the
police force to enjoy his legacy was to
attend the inquest of his father Off
ciaily.- London Tit-Bits.

Diphtheria Taken from a Kitten.

p. {. Coleman. Of Colorado, Tex,
states that after residence Of five years
at Colorado he saw the first case of diph-
liberia. A child Of four years. living
thirty miles distant in the country, and
with DO neighbor within six miles, had
diphtheria. followed by paralysis. The
child was far away from any source of
human contagion and had rarely seen
other children. The father stated that
TWO kittens had recently died from what
seemed to be the same disease, and the
child had frequently kissed them. DR..
Coleman does not doubt that the diph-
iberia was contracted from them. DIR.

Ia fashionable boarding stable in

pet of him, and never visits the stable
without taking him some apples, carrots,
or sugar, of which he is extremely fond
In neighboring stall is the horse of her
friend, an animal rejoicing in the name
of Phil. Tatters and Phil are on good
terms, but the former sometimes throws
his ears back and manifests jealousy

apple or CARROT, gives one to Phil. One

apple to Phil
When Tatters had gone to his stall
she offered him an apple, bat he refused
to take it. and turned his head from her
IN disgust. For half an hour she coaxed
him, but to no purpose. Then the groom
tried to induce him to take it, and then
another groom made the same effort, but
all In vain. Take the apple he would
not, nor would he recognize his mistress
in any way.
His ears dropped and he had the ap

His heart was broken, not so much be
