She Is usually pretty and attractive to the

goes to prove that there are hosts of
pretty young women to be fonnd
almost anywhere in America, but especially
do they thrive at fashionable summer re-

Terms Of endearment trip glibly from the

Harper's Young People.1
There is an old saying that We shonld not
count our chickens before they are Matched,
which is . very good old saying indeed, and
one that has been said in many different
ways. One of the most amusing ways of
putting it was that of the GreekAntisthenes,
who had been very much wearied by the
boasting of . young acquaintance of his of
hew rich he would be when a cargo of salt
fish he was expecting arrived from the Pom
tua The youth kept telling Antisthenes of
the presents he would give him and the
other attentions he would shower upon him,
when the Greek seized an empty mealbag
and led the braggart to dealer In -four.
"Fill this to the brim," he said to the
dealer.
/. The dealer did so, and Antisthenes, turn
ing ON his heel, started to leave the shop
without paying for the -four.
"Here" cried the dealer, "my money!
my money!
"Ahl said Antisthenea IT have none;
but-er-this young gentleman" (pointing
to the bosstful youth) "will pay for 1t when
his cargo of salt fish comes in.
The haste of the dealer to empty the -four
back into the bin and hurl the empty bag at
the retreating Antisthenes taught the
young man the lesson the wit desired him
to learn.

Growing Seeds by Electricity.

Renewed experiments in growing seeds in
electrified earth have been made by DR..
Sames Leicester, of Bristol, England, with
striking results. A small box filled with
soil was used, containing at each end cop
per and zinc plate Joined outside by cop
per wire. The slow chemical action on the
zinc sent constant electric current through
the soil to the copper. Ten different kinds
of seeds were tried and they all grew in the
box with extraordinary rapidity.

Anamusing anecdote Of the dock strike
is related by MIR. John Burns. IL is
story Of two suits Of clothes. One day
the newness Of Mr.. Burns attire aroused
the suspicious Of Il political adversary,
who accused him on the strength of this
evidence of making fine thing out OF
the poor dockers." Hereupon MIR. Burns
insisted ON relating the history Of his
new suit. Ii was very simple Mime.
Tussaud being desirous OF adding wax
model Of Mr.. Burns to her collection.
she expressed wish to present him
faithfully Fin his habit as he lived
Very WE'LL" said Mr. Burns: s'but IL
you want 10 take my clothes, IL Is only
fair to give me another rigout.r So she
did and hence the gloss of novelty.
The explanation was accepted, but
some time afterward Mr. Burns once
more appeared in new suit. which was
so evidently not the same suit that bis
old antagonist sarcastically shouted,
You didn't get them at Mime Tus-
saud's." This time It appears the scoffer
was correct. Ii appeared that Mr.. Louis
Tussaud had alao set up model of Mr..
Burns in his rival establishment, in Re
gent street. and he. too. desired to strip
the dockers champion Of his garments.
In common fairness, the latter was
bound to stipnlate for the same terms.
Thus. once more, the explanation was
simple. The suspicious suit was not
Mime. Tussaud's. but il was Tussaud
suit for all that. san Francisco Argo-
