Too Tempting.

The following anecdote is told of
Sir Philip Francis. who was great
'.gourmand. Once. at a city feast
he enviously watched his next neigh
bor who was busy eating a bowl of
turtle soup and keeping a piece of
green fat for the '.bonne bouche." Sir
Philip unable at last to resist it,
seized the delicate morsel with his
fork, and transferred it to his mouth.
and. then, giving the stranger his
card. said: Sir, am ready to make
you the most ample apology, or give
you the satisfaction of a gentleman.
but I must say you had no right to
throw such temptation in my way. :"

The Motb.r read the burial service.

The Mother Read the Burial Service.
Here is an incident Of Christian
burial in a Christian community
worthy to be read even by heathens.
We find it in the columns of one of
the Chicago dailies:
There was simple funeral at Oak
woods Cemetary yesterday. No priest
or minister was there to read the
burial service-only heart broken
mother who saw her only daughter go
to her grave. while a man who had
been stranger to both and the under
taker watched the silent grief as the
coffin was hidden under the clay.
Unfortunate Mamie Jennings. whose
body was taken from the lake off
Hyde Park Thanksgiving day, would
have gone to a paupers grave but for
the kindness of j. F. Luby. an
operator on the Open Board of Trade
who read the story of the suicide and
himself arranged for respectable
Christian burial The mother of the
girl is without money and but for the
aid of Mr.. Luby, who had known
neither, the girl would have been
buried by the county.
Mrs. Jennings claimed to have
asked Kendall Street Christian
church, where the girl attended SER
vices. to send a minister to conduct
the funeral There was no minister
present. however, and the mother.
rather than see her daughter buried
without religious observance. stood
beside the coffin of her daughter and
read portion of the eleventh chapter
of the gospel of St. John: For am
the resurrection and the life". She read
and there came the solemn amen from
the two who looked on in reverent
silence.
Snow had covered the mounds of
earth about the new made grave and
headstOnes were half hidden by the
mantle of white. Near by, long
line of carriages wound in and out
among the leaaess trees, following the
nearse containing the remains of a
daughter whose life had been passed
in the midst OF riches and of luxury.
Above her grave were heaped beauti-
full wreathes OF flowers until the
dark clay was hidden and sorrowing
friends stood by to soften the grief of
mother and father
At the other grave the mother gave
one look across the snow and then
placed little bunch of faded forget
me-nots on the grave of her child and
turned to where the one carriage
stood. There were no tears in her
eyes and she gave last look at the
mound and the poor Offering of flowers
she said: Thy will be done."- The
Chicago Sentinel.

SHE WAS NOT sOcIABLE.

She Failed to Inves tigate New Neigh

At the breakfast table yesterday
morning. says the Philadelphia Press.
Well said the brute to his
wife as he took his place. who are

What are you going to send the

Something must be the matter
