A Very ForRetful Pernon.


"It's curious how fergitful some folks
are, now amt III" inquired Mr.. Jakes, the
village plumber, carpenter and sheriff
in q ruminative tone. There's people
that'll fergit arrants an jobs an bills an
days o. the week an so on, an I've even
heard tell of folks that would fergit
their own names now an agin.'
eyes, I've heard mention made of Jest
sech cases, said Abijah Snow, who was
watching Mr.. Jakes solder u good sized
hole in the bottom of the Snow teakettle.
well, ! b'lieve there's woman in
this town beats 'em all fer fergittin,"
said Mr.. Jakes.
Who's that" inquired his customer,
with mild interest.
"It's Mis- Willard Franklin" replied
Mr.. Jakes. "She's got inter the habit of
comm over to our house twice week,
or sometimes oftener, as t happens. An
it's queer thing, but if you'll b'lieve
me, she sets an sets and fergits all about
Willard till we've had a good square
dinner, an within 10 minutes after we've
cleared everythin off'n the table she'll
recllect him an start fer home"
Mr. Jakes shot one glance at Mr. Snow,
and Mr.. Snow returned it as he said
slowly:
"S'pose the fact of Wizards bein sech
a scanty pervider an your spreadin a
lib'ral table could hev anythin to dc

''They say you can't ever tell what

Peculiarities of the Letter o.

The letter Q is a superiuous alphabetic
characters nondescript of the worst sort,
and of no more real value in expressing or
helping to express our thoughts in writing
than one of the Chinese word signs would
be. 1t never ends an English word and
cannot begin one without the aid of the let
ter u, being invariably followed by the last
mentioned letter in all words belonging to
our language. The man doesn't live that
can tell the "why'' of the peculiar relation
of the letters q and u, or why the former
was given it's curious name. Some argue
that it's name was applied because of the
tail or cue at the bottom of the letter, but
the original q. when sounded just as it is
today, was made without the cue, the char
scter much resembling the English sign
for pounds (e).-St. Louis Republic.

The buttons on coats. ETC., are placed on
the right side and the shed of the hair in
boys to the left evidently to suit manip-
ulation by the right hand. The great
philosopher Newton records that at
first he confined his astronomical OBJ
servations to his right eye, but afterward
he managed to train his left, But there
are persons who could not do this, owing
TO the unequal strength of their eyes. -

The Kanlrs Thought 1t a Joke.


once took some Kaffirs from their
desolate island home in the Himalayan
gorges beyond the mountain ranges to
the more civilized south. Like most
savages, they looked with stupid indif-
ference at the marvels about them, and
once only were they excited by an Incl
dent which opened their eyesto what
they considered q most extraordinary
and unnatural state of things.
They were descending road when
one of them chanced to remark that he
was hungry, and the English "sahib"
bought him some food at wayside
shop. The Kafir saw the money change
hands.
"How is thisr' he inquired in sur
prise. "Do you have to pay for food in
this countryF'
Certainly"
"What countryl' cried the man in
amazement. Then after pondering
awhile he continued doubtfully: "Sup-
pose man had no money in this coun-
try. He might starver'
sit is quite possible"
The Kafir shook with uncomfortable
laughter. It was the best joke he had
ever heard. He then explained the ridic-
ulous system to his companions, and they
roared in chorus. -"Where Three EN-

The Desire For Happiness,

There are some stars that we cannot
SEQ at all when we look straight at them,
but which become visible when we look
to one side. So there are things that we
cannot get when we try directly for
them, but which presently fall into our
laps if only we try hard enough for
something else. Everybody knows it is
that way with happiness. Make it a
primary object, and it leads you a doubt
full chase, but ignore it in the rational
pursuit of something else, and presently
you may find it perched unnoticed on
your shoulder liko bird whose tail has
felt the traditional influence of salt.
So, Of course, the very first essential
to the achievement of happiness of any
durable sort is to rise above the necessity
Of being happy at all. 1t may be con-
ducive to this sort of achievement to re-
member that great spirits in all times
have found in their own involuntary dis
content spur to exaltedA1fndeavor.
Neither Lincoln nor Balzac nor Carlyle
was happy man, but they put the saddle
and bride ON their own depression and
rode it under whip and spur into immor-
tality. Columbus himself had low spir-
its, and Socrates and the judicious Hook
er both had Xantippes. Exchange.

Raising Talking Parrots.

The talking powers of a parrot depend
to a great extent on it's being taken. in
hand at a very early age. This would
be one advantage Of rearing these birds
in confinement Under such conditions
also it would be practicable to vastly
improve the speaking faculty by mating
the best takers together for generations
Thus would be produced such feathered
conversationists as are unknown up to
date. 1t would certainly be profitable
to breed and raise the parrots known as
Carolina parrakeets. These are rare now
and bring high prices, though they used
to be very common as far north as Penn
sylvania and Illinois. At present the
few survivors are almost wholly con-
fined to scattered localities in Florida
and the Indian Territory. They have
been successfully bred in captivity. The
green Australian parrakeets of the sort
used by strolling fortune tellers on the
streets are among the easiest of birds
to rear.-Washington Star.

The Farmers srissiou.

A plaster image which commands an
extraordinary sale in the country dis
tricts of Germany represents society
thus:
On the steps of sort Of stairway
which ascends to a little level landing
and then comes down again are seven
human figures. One represents the en-
peror, with scepter and crown; another,
q noblemAn bearing sword; another, a
priest in his cassock; another, a helmeted
and armed SOLDIER, another, beggar
with staff and pouch, and last of all, at
the foot of the ladder, a farmer or peas
ant carrying heavy sack of grain.
Upon each Of these figures there is O
little legend which represents what each
character is supposed to be saying.
The emperor--who, by the way, is not
the highest placed figure in the group,
that honor having been reserved for the
Jew--says, II govern you ALL"
The nobleman says, 81 lord it over you

and wait for assistance or death.
Walker could not have stirred without
making noise and awakening the cobra,
which would have undoubtedly struck
Jeffries and killed him. Never was q
lad nearer death, and never had man q
more miraculous escape, for If it had
not been that the attendant arrived and
acted as he did, Jeffries would have un-
doubtedly entered the valley of the
shadow, the gates of which he had
almost seen.
Gungeet was presented with medal
and clasp for conspicuous bravery in
saving life and was promoted to posi-
tion as first-class hospital attendant at
the Lock hospital, Calcutta.
Walker and Jeffries were soon after
wards sent to Bombay, en- route to Eng
land, where on their arrival they were

Trinity,s Bronze Doors.

Two Of the three bronze doors which
William Waldorf Astor has given to
Trinity church. in New York, have been
put in places in the side portals of the
church and already have attracted the
attention of many visitors. Each door
is the independent conception of o sculp-
tor, while all three are parts of the plan
of an architect. Richard M. Hunt drew
the architectural design into which the
doors are fitted. To Carl Bitter was as
signed the great front portal. His work
is now under way, having been delayed
by the sculptor's occupation in the deco
ration of the Administration building at
the Worlds fair. When he has finished
his panels and the front door is cast in
bronze, it will be swung, and the whole
will be formally dedicated. New York

THE CRIMINAL EYE.
Frequently an Aid to tho Detective In
Following Gases.

Frequently an Aid to tho Detective In
Following Gases.
Eyes are the most certain revealers of
tho criminal nature. Many an expert
detective tells q criminal by just one
glance-not at him, but from him. The
criminal eye varies greatly in setting,
but not SO much in color. Sometimes it
is deeply placed in the head, as if it tried
to hide, fearing the result Of its own in
voluntary revelations. Sometimes it is
bulgy, protrusive like frog and heavy
lidded. Such eyes. taken in connection
with some other signs, denote treache-y,
lechery, loquacity, mendacity and gen
eral cruelty, with just enough cowardice
to prevent the criminal from doing muir
der except insidiously or through others
OF the criminal eye there are many re-
markable anecdotes. The murderer
Francesconi had little about him to in
dicate the ferocity that ambushed in his
breast. His forehead was high and
smooth; his beard was plentiful To
most people he rendered himself rather
companionable by certain cheap face
tiousness that often masquerades as wit,
and on account of this social quality
Francesconi's conceit was tolerated, and
his huge egotism did not have its full
chance to repel people.
But years before his crime young
girl-afterward the Countess della Roc
ca--who had never left home and who
lacked experience Of life, recoiled from
him violently when introduced and re-
fused to endure his presence. When
questioned why she behaved thus to-
ward one who stood SO high socially, she
answered. eff that man has not already
murdered people, he will do So" This
girlish prophecy very soon came true,
and when Lombroso inquired by what
sign she had foretold she replied: "The
eyes. saw him in his eyes. Henry
Austin in Donahoe's Magazine.
