The excuses which are given by chill
dren in order to escape from some dis
tasteful duty are often exceedingly in
genious and even witty. Johnny was
afraid of the dark. His mother was try
ing to induce him to go to bed without
her accompanying him. Johnny was
averse to this. The boy was the owner
Of little bantam hen and 10 chickens,
so his mother used these as a sort of ar
gument to convince him of his folly in
being afraid of the dark.
"Why, Johnny, just think of your
chickens, how bravely they go off to bed
every night without a thought of the
dark, and you, a great big boy, are afraid
to, go up stairs alone"
Johnny was silent for moment and
then said;
But, mamma, don't you see the rea-
son that the chickens are willing to go
to bed In the dark is because the old hen
goes with 'em, and so think you ought
to go with me."-Boston Journal.

Philadelphia Ministers Use Typewriters

Several ministers of churches in this
city have learned the art of typewriting.
and instead of using pen and ink when
inditing sermons employ the means pop
ular with business men. A reporter a
few Sundays ago called on a pastor of a
prosperous up town congregation for an
abstract of his sermon. The lively music
of typewriter was the only sound which
broke the silence of the anteroom in the
sacred edifce. But no fair haired damsel
presided over the machine-only the di-
vine, who was industriously completing

To review the work OF Columbus
without referring to that of Vespucius
and Magellan would leave the story OF
new sea and world discovery discon-
nected and incomplete. This will be
patent when it is remembered that
though believer in the rotundity Of the
earth, it was not Columbus but Magel-
Ian who first physically demonstrated
that fact by circumnavigation. And Ma
gellan might have failed but for the pre-
vious work of Vespucius. The latter
had explored the Atlantic coast OF South
America farther south than any OF his
predecessors and the south Atlantic
ocean eastward to the islands of South
Georgia, nearly to the parallel OF Cape
Horn.
By this journey Vespucius demonstrat-
ed with Il considerable degree of Ger.
tainty that the strait. which had for some
wears been looked for. leading to the
elusive unknown sea that bounded the
eastern coast Of Asia. was not to be found
through the new lands of the west north
of 81 degrees south. at all events. The
mouth of the AIIaZon. the bays of Hlc

NOT ANY "PRAlER.
Somebody Took Liberties With
the Motto on the States
Great Seal.
The Enrolled Law Reads "Ora y Plata
Instead Of ''OrO
Plata"

The legislature Of Montana or one OF |
its enrolling clerks made curious mis- |
take on the bill providing for a great
seal for the state of Montana. The en-
rolled copy of the bill requires that un-
der the design on the seal shall appear
the words Ora Y Plata" This motto
was intended to represent the mineral
characteristics of Montana. and it was
meant that the literal translation OF the
Spanish words should be gold and sill
ver." This is what they would have
meant had the legend on the old terri
torial seal been followed and the words
"Ora \ Plata" If Ora means any
thing in Spanish il means prayer. On
the other hand "Oro" means gold.
So to translate the motto as it appears
in the bill signed by the governor would
make the motto Of Montana Prayer
and Silver But while Montanians are
no more backward in yielding up the
first than the hills of the state are in
giving up the second. it was not the in
tention of those who drew up the design
for the seal to have any such motto up
on it. Gold and Silver" was what was
intended. or as the words on the old seal
