Women One Man Hates,

One of the meanest of conversational
tricks is favorite one with women. A
fellow has something real nice and
clever to say. He is rounding up nicely
to it, when some chit of a woman takes
a gasp and says, "Oh, yes! know what
you mean," and, by lingo, says it. OF
course she gets all the credit. lido hate n
woman like that. She is the kind of
woman who says, "Ah. yes!' and then
goes off into poetic illustration of the
fact you have announced-somethin
nice and dreamy that she never could
have said by herself. hate that sort of
woman, making herself seem so clever
and bright and poetic and all that from
your brains.
She laughs before you have got your
funny story out and says, Eyes, isn't it
funny 1t makes it so easy for you to
so on, that does. Actually, sometimes
she will finish it for you. That is the
kind of woman l hate too. She is al
ways coming in with a "Yes, but" and
upsetting what you have said, or else
hauling out another side of it that YOU
didn't mean to have brought up. hate
women like that. say let women learn
to cook and sew frills, not talk like
idiots.-Washington Post.

Ancient Sacrifices to the Sea.

The navisators of antiquity, to whose
imaginative ignorance the ocean seemed
peopled and beset with chimeras dire
and supernatural agencies of all sorts,
used often to sacrifice human lives to
the mysterious water gods. Its regard
ed by tradition that Idomeneus, king of
Crete, vowed to sacrifice to Neptune the
first living thing he met after escaping
from a storm, and this happening to be
his son, he fulfilled his vow religiously.
Medea nearly became sacrifice during
the return voyage of the Argonauts.-

Wherein Liverpool Wa. posiruble.

was invited by an American friend
of mine in Liverpool to meet Hawthorne
soon after his arrival. His appearance
was very striking. his face handsome
and intellectual, and the large liquid
eyes We're full of latent fire and poetical
imagination. He was not only reticent,
but almost taciturn, and when he did
speak was apt to pause and then jerk
out the rest Of the sentence. Americans
have, as rule, very remarkable facil-
ity of expression. Here was curl
Gus exception. l remember condoling
with him for having exchanged Bos-
ton. the hub of creation, for uncongenial

pool is very pleasant place" (then a

surprised, and then suddenly the end Of

Street Car Companies Not Responsible.
An incident of special interest in con-
nection with the electric street car line
of Halle, Germany, is that the German
government stopped the running of the
electric cars Immediately after the open
ing ceremony, because they interfered
with the proper working of the tele-
grams and telephones. The case came
before the law courts and the judges de-
cided in favor of the railroad company,
stating that the streets of city were in
tended for general traffic, and that their
course could not be altered, but that the
postal authorities could easily make any
necessary deviation in the line of the
telegraph and telephone wires SO as to
place them beyond the influence of the
electric lines. which use the rails and
earth for the return circuit.-New York

A Married Mans First DUTY.

When young man ,narries his first
duty is to study how his wife may live
most beautifully and most honorably,
and for the longest number of years
Our homes ought to anticipate perma-
nence and have the common sense and
morals that win long continuance. There
can be no happiness like that of noble
home, no misery like that of a merely
coupling together of man and woman
for brief hard working and animal
existence. Every day should be lived
so as to add health. rather than to en-
feeble and weary. You may be sure
that If you cannot rise in the morning
with clear head and pure heart. there
Is little before you but disease and mis-
cry and discord.-Mary E. Spencer in
St. Louis Globe Democrat.

a south African Animal.

There is IA curious looking animal in
South Africa that looks for all the world
like a piece of toast with four legs, a
head and tail. 1t resembles pussy
cat about the forehead and ears, but its
nose is distinctly that of rat. while its
tail is not very dissimilar to that of a
fox. This strange animal is called the
aardwolf, and doubtless dwells in South
Africa because, judged by his looks. he
would not be admitted into good animal
society anywhere else.-Harper's Young

PITCH HOLES.

Merrily down the snowy road
Right smoothly glides the sleigh.
Lightly bearing its laughing load
Over the hills and away.
Then suddenly like tiger springs
With a crcak and sway and shrug;
1t bucks like u broncho, and wildly filings
Its riders about like useless things
Till they ycarn for pillows and cushions and
springs,
For fierce are the pangs tina, the pitch hole
brings
With its ug-ug-chug-kerc
So bargaincd with her as we glidcd oa
A kiss for each pitch hole there.
And, US smooth was the way we rode upon,
She thought my proposal fair
But q sudden change came over the miss

Where every rod meant n chuy and a kiss
And every pang was rewarded with bliss,
And NC pitched SO fast ! was like to miss
Oh. what could be sweeter or dearer than this
This g-chug-nck-smnck!
But no maiden ever could stand it long
Not the kissing, of course. but the track
And she pleaded at length that she wasn't
strong,
Aud asked to be taken back.
So we made another bargain there.
And sealed 1t with hug:
For kisses only when roads were fair,
And spectators not scattered here and there,
Nor pitch holes prevalent everywhere.
Though ever since have blessed in prayer

Hiram Was Not ut All Scared by tho
Noises Down Stairs.
1t was o'clock in the morning when
Mrs. Higinbotham shook her husband.
"Ugh," he responded unconsciously.
"Hiram! Hiram!' she exclaimed in n
whisper.
"U-ugh," he observed.
She gave him another shake.
"Hiram," she whispered, "there's rob-
bers down stairs"
"Ugh?" he ventured again, this time
with rising infection indicating that he
was gradually absorbing the idea that
something was wrong.
She gave him tremendous shake.
"Ugh," he almost shouted, sitting
straight up, "what in thundcr's the row,
Maria:'
She clapped her hand over his mouth.
"Sh-sh!" she whispered, there's
burglars down stairs"
cav" he growled, eve ought to he
thankful they are not up stairs. Go to

"Hiram, tell you," she insisted, with
another shake, there's burglars down
stairs. l heard them. You go down
and see what they want"
"Maria," he protested, "1ll do moth
ing of the sort. If they don't SEQ what
they want they can ask for it. That's
business"
"But you shall go down, Hiram, and
see," she urged and pleaded at the same
time.
II won't, tell you, Maria. Because
your father owns dry goods store is no
sign that believe it is no trouble to
show goods, and repeat, madam, if
those burglars want anything they've
got to wait Oh themselves. It's after
business hours anyway. You must
think we run an all night place. Go to
sleep, tell YOU"
Mrs. Higinbotham gave a sudden
clutch at his arm.
There" she nearly screamed. II hear
them coming up stairs now"
"Well, dear" he said soothingly,
you'd better jump up and put on
dress. 1t will never do in the world for
you to receive strange gentlemen in your
present attire"
We'll be murdered in our beds" she
walled.
"Do you really think you will" he in
quired with some interest.

suggested hesrtlessly. I'm willing to

asked, as if he had just that moment
discovered her grief.
you're a mean. horrid man, Hiram
Higinbotham," she said in her natural
voice, and she began to get out of bed.
"Where are you going, Maria%' he in
quired uneasily.
"Down stairs" she answered heroical-
". "As between you upstairs and the
burglars down stairs, prefer the bur-
glars" and down stairs she went, and the
black cat in the preserve closet upset
four jars of her finest ounces in its mad
effort to escape.
She screamed, but Hiram Higinbotham
made no sign; he knew he had forgotten
to put the cat in the cellar when he shut
the house up for the night and reported
to his wife that everything was all right.
