OF Savannah, Ga, with his pretty daugh-
ters, Miss Virginia l.. aud Miss Lillian Ham
lltou, have returned from a trip to the Vel
Iowstone Among their callers yesterday
at the Hotel Templeton was Miss Means, a
college acquaintance of Miss Virginia. Mr..
w. u. Peabody was quite attentive TO the
young ladies but be had allowed his usual
buoyant spirits to admit the supremacy Of
moods and the one that muddled his mind
was that the clerk had assigned him to the
dreaded number thirteen, When the Young
man " as missed few minutes Miss Lillian
would send the bell boy up to his room to
see whether he was dead. Mr.. Peabodv's
aversion to number thirteen Is not 30 chimer-
ical as it may appear. At Mammoth Hot
Springs he was assigned to the fatal num-
Der and be took two horrid chills from which
he has not yet fully recovered. Miss Lillian
was rude enough to tell the Herald repo rter
that she liked Savannah much better than
salt Lake, which is an offense which her
Utah friends will never forgive her."

the nature Of the Irish people when under

In the years Of his highest repnta.
ton, Daniel Webster was favored
with degree OF personal adulation
and "todying" which was not al
together agreeable to him.
1t is related that on one occasion.
when public reception was given to
him at a hotel in Boston, a particu-
larly obsequlous old ofiicer-sef ker was
introduced. The man fiattered Web.
ster and ground his own ak, bowling
and scraping, until the great man
was tired OF him, and bidding HIM
good-day, settled down into the near
est chair.
But the man, instead OF passing on
and giving chance to the next
conner, fingered near, and seemed to
have something still on his mind,
though he looked very blissful.
Webster observed this, and said, not
very good-naturally:
MAY / ask you, sir. il you want
anything more of me?"
"Oh--oh, mol" said the man, smirk-
ingly; "only, perhaps | may be per-
mitted to remark that am proud to
say that my hat is having the inesti-

In early English r was always
triIled, says a writer in Science, as it
continues to be In Scotland, where
most of the characteristics OF early
English are still prevalent. But in
modern English the trills have been
softened away wherever r follows a
vowel, until little is left of the r
but its vowel quality. We are accus-
toned to the entire omission Of it in
negro speech, where do and sto are all
that we hear for door and store; but
In educated utterances there is some
phonetic effect left in r even where
1t is least manifest. Such delicate
shades Of sound are the distinguish
ing marks of refinement in pronun-
citation, and they should be carefully
preserved by teachers and by writer's
on phonetics.

The trouble in love affairs Is. that
the parties to It love too much TO
love long.
How polite and gallant a man is
to the women OF the world who are
not related to him.
Most babies cry in church because
they are frightened BY the boisterous
talk Of the preacher.
There is nothing more profound
than pride, and, strange to say, moth
ing more ridiculous.
A woman's greatest rival in mans
heart Is the pleasure he enjoys in
having his own way.
A mans best friend to-day is often
the skeleton In his closet that tor
ments him the most tomorrow.
The best loved man is he who
gives the most; he Is also the one
least regarded when he stops giving.
One very good reason why a man
should tell the truth is that il is not
the tax on his memory that lie
would be-
Men judge mans religion by his
actions outside the church, and the
women Judge 1t by the brilliancy OF
his prayers within.
1t is all well enough to tell man
when he is ia trouble TO look on the
bright side; the rub is to find the
bright side to look ON.
Some men will not stop doing a
foolish thing, because II they did, it
would be an admission Oh their part

to die for sinners than to find any
man afterward who would admit that
he was one.
Men are brutes. They have better
times occasionally without their
wives, and tell them SO. Women are
hypocrites. They enjoy life without
their husbands once In a while, but
they will never admit that they are
not miserable without them.
We have noticed that the more
