Those Of us who like Friday for vari-
GUS reasons, but chiefly because it leads
up to Saturday, upon which day schools
are closed, will be pleased to hear that
it is not half so unlucky day as Mon.
day, the day school opens again. A Ger
man statistician, feeling that Friday had
been q much maligned day, determined
to make scientific investigation of the
matter, and found that it is not Friday
but Monday that is the most unfortunate
of the week days.
According to his Investigations 1874
per cent. of all accidents occur on Mon.
day, 1851 per cent. on Tuesday, 1881 per
cent. on Wednesday. 15.47 per cent. on
Thursday, 1888 per cent. on Friday,
1888 per cent. on Saturday and only 2. 80
per cent. on Sunday. So you see Friday
isn't so bad q day after all.--Harper's

Absence Of Real Children In Literature.
The wise mentors in conventional lit
erature virtually tell you that child liter
ature wants no real children in it; that
the real child's example of defective
grammar and lack Of elegant department
would furnish to Its little patrician pa
irons suggestions very hurtful indeed to
their higher morals, tendencies and am
bitions. Then, although the general pub
lie couldn't for the life of it see why or
how, and might even be reminded that
it was just such rowdying child
itself, and that its father-the father
of his country-was just such child,
that Abraham Lincoln was just such
lovable, lawless child, all-all Of
this argument would avail not in
the least, since the elegantly minded
purveyors Of child literature cannot pos
sibly tolerate the presence Of any but the
refined children--the very proper chill
dren--the studiously thoughtful. poeti
children-and these must be kept sa!
from the communicating touch Of our
rough and tumble. little fellows in "hod
den gray" with frowzy heads. begrimed
but laughing faces, and such awful,
awful vulgarities Of naturalness, and
crimes OF simplicity, and brazen faith
and trust. and love Of life and everybody

Iwas travelling In Kansas in the early

When john WAS in pouht.

John was a coachman who took life
most seriously. and being very particu.
lar would return frequently in the course
of the day to make sure that he under.
stood the orders that had been given him
in the morning. One afternoon he pre-.
sented himself before his mistress and
began:
MRS. T. Oi'm not quite certain en-
to Mr.. T---'s ordher this mornin. Oi
was droiyin him to the thrain, an he no.
ticed that the horse was lame, an he
told me to do somethin to him, mum;
but sure O don't know whittier he told
me to shoe him or to shoot him. Mebbe
ye can till me-"
A shoeing was evidently required, but
the execution Of the order and likewise
Of the horse was deferred until Mr.. T
returned. d.-Harper's Young People,

A Small Legal Fec.

The smallest fee ever taken by an Eng
lish counsel was sixpence. that fee hav-
ing ON one occasion been taken by the
late Sir John Holker. Barristers' fees
were In olden times much less than
those now paid. An entry occurs in the
church wardeus' accounts Of st. Mar
garet's. Westminster. for 1916. showing
that fee Of three shillings and eight
pence, with fourpence for his dinner.
was paid to Rohert Fylpott, counsel,
learned in the law, for his advice.
In Mares GLOSSARY" barrister's fee
was stated to be an angel. or ten shil-
lings. These are somewhat different
figures to the 800 guineas paid to Sir
Charles Russell three or four years ago
at the Leeds assizes for less than three
hours's work, or at the rate Of over three
guineas a minute. Tit-Bits.

Di.u.e Of the Hat.

A. London correspondent complains
that he cannot take his walks abroad
with his head uncovered without being
exposed to gibes and fouts and sneers
and treated as lunatic. Sand yet" he
asks. ''who but the halter would suffer

avoid colds in the head. It Is q mistake
