But how can he know what will comfort woe

Thy life has been free from sorrow or care;
Hast thou the courage 10 suffer, and share
The grief and pain Of others, to gain

The poet made answer, Il have no fear

Pocketbooks in Letter Boxes.

From time to time pocketbooks are
found in the pillar boxes. Pickpockets
have taken this way Of returning to their
owners whom they have robbed the valu-
able contents of pocketbooks, generally
papers, which are of no use to any one
but the owner. The thieves in this way
get rid of articles which might lead to
their conviction, and at the same time
assuage the losses of the pocketbooks
in some measure. They of course have
NO time to do up package, bat drop
the articles into the most convenient
boxes.-London Tit-Bits.

To Tell Pure SILK.

If you wish to purchase by sample and
to test the quality of silk take ten fibers
of the filling of any silk, and if on break
ing they show feathery dry and lack
luster condition. and discolor the fingers
in handling, you may at once be sure OF
the presence of dye and of artificial
weighing.
Or take a small portion of the fibers
between the thumb and forefnger and
gently roll them over and over, and you
will soon detect the gum, mineral, soap
etc., should their be any, or their alb.
sence.
Another simple but effective way 10
test the purity of silk is to burn small
quantity of the fibers Pure silk will
instantly crisp, leaving onlya pure char
coal. Heavily dyed silk will shoulder
leaving greasy yellow ash.
If you cannot break the ten strands
and if they do not discolor the fingers at
the point of contract, you may be well
assured that you have pure silk, that il
honest in its make and durable in the
wear.-Detroit Free Press.

Oaths in Oldeh Times.

The Roman oath of olden times was
made with great solemnity and elabora-
tion. In Roman mythology Juno, max
ing promise to sleep, strengthened it
by taking the heavens in one hand and
the earth in the other. Greeks and Ro-
mans swore by their gods, by the Styx, by
Olympus, by hell, by their sacred springs
wells and rivers, and by the sun and the
moon. Their oaths were of much value
and meaning during the early days of the
republic, butworthless after they became
corrupt.
Oaths lost their sanctity and became
colloquial or profane at a very early time
among the Jews. Greek ladies swore
daintily by Venus, Diana and Juno, and
now and then by some male god whose
name was frequently taken in vain by
their hege lords. The French monarchs
too, had their own peculiar forms Of
oaths. st. Louis Republic

The PRAYER should Have .

The Prayer Should Have Been Answered.
A member of certain Massachusetts
parish. prominent for his thrift and per-
sonal consequence, was also notorious
for his overbearing assumptions and
pompous airs Under the distress and
fright of dangerous illness he "put up
notes" on several successive Sundays,
and after his recovery, according to u.s.
age, he offered note, to be read by the
minister, expressive of his thanks.
The minister was somewhat "large'
in this part of his prayer, recalling the
danger and the previous petitions of the
esquire" and returning his grateful ac'
acknowledgements with the prayer that the
experience might be blessed to the spirit
ual welfare of the restored man. He
closed with these words:
"And we pray, o Lord, that thy serv
ant may be cured of that ungodly strut

Two Glasses of Gypsies.

The gypsies of today are divided up
into the full blooded or tent gypsies, and
the Kairengroes or house dwellers, who
keep their gypsy blood a secret. This
division of the race shows that they are
gradually yielding to the pressure OF
outside influences, and the complete ex'
tinction of their national identity will
simply be a matter of time.-George
