break the record of political precocity,

The supreme court of Pennsylvania
has just rendered decision upholding
the be4uest made by Benjamin Frank
lin century ago to promote early mar.
riages. Franklin bequeathed 81 900
each to the cities Of Philadelphia
and Boston. to be lent upon matri-
mony to apprentices who wished to es-
tablish themselves in business. The
rate of interest to be charged was per
cent, and Franklin calculated that at
the end of hundred years the fund in
each city would amount to e131, 900
He directed that the odd 81 900 should
be spent by each city in public improve
ments and the remainder lent to young
married couples for another 100 years.
1t was then to be divided between the
city and the state.
A year ago last fall the first century
had rolled around, and the Philadel-
phia fund amounted to little less than
800, 900, while the Boston fund amount
ed to nearly 800, 900, or almost as much
as Franklin estimated. Meanwhile,
however, the apprenticeship system had
died out, while the Franklin family had
not, except as to public spirit. Two of
the descendants of the great thinker
seized the occasion to bring suit to set
aside the will and have the funds
turned over TO Franklin's natural heirs,
viz, themselves. There We're several
grounds upon which the heirs brought
this suit, the chief being that the will
established 'perpetuity," without be-
ing essentially charitable, inasmuch as
interest was charged to each recipient
of the fund
1t was also urged that the will should
be set aside because it was no longer
possible TO carry out one of its main
provisions, since apprentices had ceased
to exist. Both Of these grounds and all
Others the court rejects as inadequate to
sustain the claim of the contestants.
The two funds will therefore go on
compromising for another 100 years.

and cheering again. Guy took the lead
and kept it in the next two heats, though
hard pressed at times by Flying Jib in
the fourth heat and Mascot in the fifth.
The time in these last two heats was

There was loud and prolonged cheering

added that it was most remarkable race
as it was the fastest five-heat race on rec

had beaten the best previous harness race

Curious Tricks of Memory.

One of the queerest freaks of the mem- ory is the trick-often enough noted for that matter-which some peoples mem ories have of seeming to recall only the things that the mind never made any effort to remember, and letting go irrev- ocably all the things that the mind did consciously attempt to store up. Pos Ebly the Listener has once before told the story of friend of his, whose occu- patton is more or less literary. who can remember but one single piece of poetry, and that was a piece of doggerel that his seat mate in school once learnedi All the divine verse that he himself has oft en labored to commit is gone forever; but this piece of doggerel which the other boy labored to learn, but probably totally forgot in a month or & year, sticks fast in his mind.
 Everybody's memory has tendency to hold fast to mischief and nonsense and let serious and important things go. However, this very characteristic of the memory is thing that can be made use of if we know how to do it. If we are bright enough at the right time to take in these useful things somewhat after the easy and enjoyable fashion that we take the agreeable nonsense, the chances Ars that they wta ssisk hy sS.-Dostop T&6NnneiSS

Directions in England.

Speaking of up" and down" in England reminds me of friends ex- perience. On his arrival in Liverpool he wished to visit & hat store without delay. He was conveyed by fellow passenger to a large establishment, where hats were only one of a dozen things that were sold.
 "Where is the hat department?' in- quired the newcomer.
 "Clear up to the top, sir, as far as you can go," was the answer of the clerk ad- dressed, whose accompanying gesture showed that he did not mean the highest story of the building, but the extreme end of the shop.
 The next day my friend was In Ches- ter cathedral. It was Sunday and at the hour of service, and the place was pretty full. Looking about for a seat, he was accosted by verger, who in- formed him that "You can't get any seat, sir, unless you go clear down to the bottom" What the man meant by the "bottom" was the portion of the editice nearest the altar.
 Londoners also speak of the top and "bottom" of street, where New York CTS say "hoad" and "foot. Cor. New York Tribune.

A Youthful Artist Finds That She Does
 Not Have a Rosy Path to Travel
 She came to see me the other day, looking tired and miserable, and while she rested in my biggest and coziest chair pressed her to tell me what was wrong.
 "Well," she said finally, "I will tell you. It all comes from being Mrs. Blanks latest fad. You are surprised, but it's quite true. You know, Mrs. Blank, having nothing else to occupy her mind, is always slave to some fad or other. Once it was Browning, later on it was athletics and finally changed to china painting, and now l am her particular fad. You see, she met me when the china painting craze was on her, and as I have some little skill airl reputation as & china decorator s,.a came to see me frequently about iisr work. At last she veered aronnd from china painting to me. When Mrs. Blank first 'took me up" it was a matter of considerable rejoicing, not only to my fellow artists, but to myself.
 "Mrs. Blank is woman of wealth and prominence, and naturally any person whom she favored with her friendship and patronage would soon become well known and gain considerable custom. We'll, I've had a few orders-not many. You see, Mrs. Blanks friends are so we'll aware of her habit of going daft about something or other at recurrent inter- vals that they don't put much faith in her recommendations. However, it's quite as well, for shouldn't haSS time to do anything anyhow. l haven't had & chance to execute the orders did re- oeive.

Ideas are the thing-not la- bor.' Or she sends me 8 note to come to luncheon, as she wants to see me par ticularly, and then she keeps me there all day. What does she want? Nothing, except to talk to me. That's why she likes me. She likes to talk. Now you know I do not shine in conversation and I can listen till the heavens fall. We'll, she sits by the hour and pours into my ears the tale of her emotions, her ideas, her experiences, her views, her aspira- tions and her opinions of her neighbors.

woman,s Endurance of Pain.

"Men will receive frightful wounds without finching, then act like babies at the sight of the surgeons knife and needle. As rule the most robust nations bear pain with less fortitude than those noted for efeminacy. A na- tive of Bengal will look placidly on while you saw of his leg, while your bold Britisher must have an opiate be- fore getting tooth pulled.

HahituaI Postnr

Comparatively few persons have both sides of the body of perfectly similar proportions. One leg or one arm is shorter than the other. The two sides of the head are often of unequal size Few persons have ears of an equal size and symmetrically placed. The size and position of the eyes vary. In the mouth and throat also we find inequality, and the cartilage separating the two nasal cavities is oftener defected than yer tical.
 This condition of inequality in the two sides of the body Is called asym- metry.
 Those who have observed the effects of school life on body development must have noticed the influence of habitual pos ure on the symmetry and health of the body.
 There is tendency among school children, and especially among school girls, to assume habitual pastures both in sitting and standing. The habit of throwing all the weight of the body on one leg produces a corresponding throw ing of the upper part of the body toward the opposite side in order to establish the necessary equilibrium. This tends of course to curve the spinal column, on which the upper part of the body is supported.
 In this position the body and all the internal organs are thrown out of their normal vertical position, and the force of gravity still further exaggerates this result. Thus the muscles of the neck are unevenly exercised in the uncon- scious balancing of the head upon the vertebral column. Even the muscles of the face tend to become unevenly con tracted, and this in time develops con dition of asymmetry of the face.- Youths Companion.

The Smoke from the Sunset Gun.

Next to the sunsets and the daily de- parture of the white fleet of sound steamers, nothing that is seen from the span of tho Brooklyn bridge is better worth seeing than the firing of the evening gun at Castle William on Gov ernor's island. The flash is of startling brilliancy, and in calm weather it leaps nearly 800 feet from the mouth of the cannon.
