A Visit From Dean Swift.

The Irish reformer, Father Math-
ew, used to tell of q remarkable visit
made to his grandfather by Dean
Swift. Mr.. Mathew lived near Dub
lin and invited the eccentric dean to
dine and spend the night at his
house. A large party of the neigh
boring gentry were hidden to meet
him.
The dean drove up to the house,
and summoning the butler asked the
names of the guests.
Tell your master, :" he shouted, 81
will meet no such people, and drove
away in fury. Before he reached
the lodge gates, however, he changed
his mind, returned, alighted and de-
manded to be shown to his room.
When his host came to him, Swift
said, II am willing to accept your
hospitality, but will not meet your
guests"
He was told that his meals should
be served in his room, as if he were
at home. He remained thus isolated
for two days, then came down in
high good humor, joined the party
and extended his visit for four
months.-Youth's Companion.

In Male Attire For Thirty Years.

A strange case of male impersona-
ton Shas been discovered at one of
the hospitals in Paris. An elderly
person dressed as a man, giving the
name of Victor Beillet, was admitted
as an impatient When the surgeon
in charge proceeded to an examina-
ton, Beillet objected. 1t was then
found that the patient was woman,
and DIR. Dreyfus ordered her removal
to the female ward. Beillet was
formerly a messenger at the Office of
the "Agence Havas." At her lodg-
ings in the Rue pAbbe Gregore,
where she had lived for nearly 80
years, no suspicion of her real sex
had been aroused. London Tit Bits.

Using Live Decoys.

The manner of using live decoys
may prove of some interest. The
geese are genuine wild ones, taken
when young or possibly Matched and
raised by the owner. The birds have
the first joint of their wing taken of,
making it impossible for them to fiy
any great distance. Around the leg,
just above the foot, they wear a
leather strap made into slip moose.
This is never taken off. To this is
tied, when using them, rope 8 or 10
feet long with a stake attached.
When placing these decoys, we
wade, using hip boots, of course, to
about two feet of water, pushing the
stake well into the bottom and plac.
ing tuft of sod near by about six
or seven inches from the surface, so
that they may stand on it and not be-
come too wearied from constantly
floating or swimming. 1t is sur
prising how accustomed these birds
get to the gun being fired over them.
It is somewhat similar to hunting
dog. They know what they are
there. for, do their duty and never
finch at the report. forest and

Poor Praise For an Actor.

A London critic went all the way
to Manchester to see Beerbohm Tree
play Hamlet. 1t was agreed that
he should lunch with Tree after the
performance, and so he did. But
Tree, who was ripe for fluctuations,
was nightly disturbed because his
guest made no reference to the play
on the contrary, seemed rather to
evade discussion of the performance.
So, as the guest was departing, Tree
followed him through the door and
called to him as he descended the
stairs, ''Oh, say, old man, what did
you think of 'Hamletg"
To this the departing guest an,
swered, Wonderful play, old man
most wonderful play ever written. "

The Birth of the Restaurant.

The restaurant is of comparatively
modern origin. The first French
revolution, at the close of the last
century, witnessed its birth. Pre-
vious to that time the best cooks were
in the employ of the nobility, whose
ruin threatened them with equal dis
aster. A happy inspiration, however,
led them to open places of public en-
tertainment, which leaped at once in
to immense popular favor, inasmuch
as previously, while the French peo-
pie were endowed with the instincts
OF delicate cookery, they were unable
to crafty their tastes through the
absence of resorts available for the
purpose.
The proprietors of many of these
establishments quickly acquired
widespread fame and large wealth.
Coincident with the birth of the res
taurant i'll France, an immense i'm
pulse was given to the publication of
popular treatises on the art of cook
cry composed by the most famous
cooks. These were rapidly dissent
mated among the people, who, gifted
with a natural genius for gastron-
omy, promptly availed of the new
sources of knowledge to perfect
themselves in an art of which they
have become the foremost opponents
of the world. Among these publica-
tons was the Almanach DIES Gour-
mands, established in 1904, one of
the classics of culinary learning

Criticisms of Modern school Crowdin~


A man has this to say about the
way children are pushed on at the
public schools "A niece of mine
was graduated in neighboring city
from the high school, In class of
20 20 failed to pass the examinations.
1t seems to me this fact should
warn those in charge of the schools
OF the danger of trying to do too
much. The effect of the system is
to keep the scholars all on a dead
level as near as possible, and those
whose minds are not destroyed by
the strain to which they are subject
ed will probably make good average
citizens.
But what good is to come of it
ana This filling the memory at the
expense of the reflective faculties
with a lot of statistical information,
any part of which when needed can
be ascertained in five minutes from
an encyclopedia, is certainly not ben
eficial in training the intellect. The
long hours required for study leave
no time for outdoor exercise, without
which the most brilliant intellect is
of little worth. A large percentage
of the prominent men of the country
are those whose schooling has con-
sisted in part at least of prelim-
mary drill on the farm or in the
workshop, which has developed them
physically. Ny own girls go to the
public schools. I wish they didn't,
but my wife thinks they ought to
keep at it, and all I can do is to pro
vide bicycles, swings, a boat and ev-
I can think of to keep them
out of doors. New York Times.

Combs Made of Blood.

There is large factory in a small
town near Chicago, employing about
100 workers, which is given over to
the manufacture of articles from
waste animal blood. At certain sea.
sons of the year this unique factory
uses quite 10000 gallons of fresh
blood per day. 1t is first converted
into thin sheets by evaporation and
certain chemical processes and aft
erward worked up into variety of
articles such as combs, buttons, ear
rings, belt clasps, bracelets, etc.
Tons of these articles are sent to all
parts Of the world every year. San

when mansfield wanted Praise.

1t is said that Henry Irving sat
through one of Richard Mansfeld's
performances of Richard Ill" Aft
er the play he went back of the cur
tain, and upon invitation visited
Mansfield's dressing room. Mans
field was much exhausted by the per-
Torrance and was tanning himself
industriously. The appearance of Mr..
Irving revived him and refreshed
him to degree. He was sure that
Irving had come to congratulate him.
But all that Irving did or said was to
slap Mansfield playfully upon the
shoulder, exclaiming in his peculiarly
Irving way, "Aha, you sweat r'-Eu-

Turning the Tables.

A sweet faced maiden LADY who
srlll has hopes sat beside bright lit
tie fellow in an elevated car the other
afternoon making friendly overtures
TO mis- pleased parents by compliment
ing the boy on his accomplishments.
She had asked him a good MANY
questions about almost everything
she could think of as they speeded
toward Harlem. To these the little
chap had replied with frank serious.
ness peculiar to children.
so you are going to the park this
afternoon? Do you love the parkY''
"Oh, yes" he replied, then added
after pause, "but papa don't like
it."
mo? And why don't he like it?"
T-l-papa says it bores him, and
he don't like it."
People in the vicinity smiled at the
fathers expense, and the maiden lady
appeared to be greatly amused. The
child saw this and followed it up.
Papa didn't want to come but
mamma said"-
What mamma said was cut short
by vigorous shake from that indi-
vldual, who had all along regarded
the strange lady with disapproval
and now frowned. The passengers
looked disappointed. The maiden
lady looked a trif1e malicious.
How old are youa" she finally in
quired, with her sweetest smile.
I'm 5. How old are your'
Mamma smiled this time, and the
gentlemen opposite elevated their
newspapers to conceal their agita-
ton. The maiden lady gazed out of
the window thoughtfully. Maybe
she was trying to figure it up. But
she didn't answer the child's ques-
tion.-New York Herald.

Effect of Gas on Furniture.

Gas consumers often complain that
books, furniture and pictures are in
jured by the small quantity of sui
phur which, despite all precautions,
passes through the burners. But DR..
Odling, F. R. S., and Professor Lewis,
in giving evidence before Lord Sand
ford's committee on the Crystal
Palace gas bill, declared that this
idea was an error. The damage was
not due to the sulphur, but to the
heated zone of the atmosphere above
the chandelier. The sulphurous in
gredient was so small that four or
binary lucifer matches struck in the
course of six hours would yield as
