ing suburban friend, 40 cents seem tc
woman good deal to spend for few
moments, while to men, who are con-
stantly throwing dimes and more away
on cigars, drinks and the like, the sum is
of no value"
To which may be added the remark
heard not long ago of a man who is pos
sessed Of what might be called average
habits in the matter Of drinking and
smoking.
In that moment of genial introspection
which not infrequently assails a man
after glass or two of wine and in the
enveloping clouds of a good cigar he
was discussing with the partner of his
joys and sorrows the merits and demer-
its Of his manner of life.
"You are quite right, my DEAR" he re-
piled, as his wife finished little homily
on the injustice Of her trying to save so
cents on the quality of the children's un-
derwear while he tossed away dollar
q day in dimes and nickels for things
that did him no good. "You are quite

Pleading q Friends Case.

An excuse so absurd as to put an en-
tire courtroom in good humor was given
not long ago before an English magis-
trate. A name was called by the usher,
a voice answered, "'Erer and man
with lame leg stumped up to the table
and said the defendant could not appear.
"Why?" asked the magistrate.
"Well, your worship, he's i'll. He's
VERY bad indeed, SIR"
"What's the matter with himw
"He's got very bad leg, sir"
"What's the matter with it?"
"Well, your worspip, it's like this ere.
It's got wrong in the j'ints, SIR"
"Has he got rheumatism"
"Well, sir, faint that 'zackly. It's a
cork leg. and the spring in the j'int 'as
gone wrong"
The magistrate himself could not help
joining in the laughter which filled the
court ut the absurdity of one man with
a disjointed leg pleading the cause of a
similarly afflicted friend and at the dole
full tone in which he added:
~ do assure your worship that it's
VERY, VERY bad, and he can't walk"
The summons was held over until the
broken spring could be repaired, and the
advocate stumped out of court with a
smile on his face and making solid
sound which proved that all his own
''j'ints" were in good working order

Composer Gluck at Work.

When Gluck composed his immortal
works, a bottle of champagne was al
ways placed on either side Of the piano,
and its effervescence helped to inspire
the great arias Of "Iphigenia," "Armida'
and "Aloeste." When the final rehear-
sails were held of the "Iphigenia, Gluck
had not yet written the melody to the
Dance Of the Scythians." Naverre, the
the ballet master, becoming uneasy over
the delay, went to him one morning to
urge him to hurry it up. As he entered
the composers anteroom he heard unu-
sual and terrific noises emanating from
Gluck's library. He approached stealth
lily. and through crack in the door saw
Gluck In shirt sleeves, his face as red as
fire and distorted by horrible grimaces.
singing, gesticulating and jumping
about like madman. Naverre, fright
ened by the extraordinary spectacle,
pushed the door open. rAh, there you
are," exclaimed Gluck. "I am Just fin
ishing your dance and will let you have
1t right away" 1t was then that Gluck
had composed that grand orgie of the
savages which created such a profound
sensation on the stage.--St. Louis Post

Death From a Tootbache Cure.

Simon Kintzer, leading citizen Of
Hummeltown, had been suffering for
two days with toothache. On Monday
evening stranger called at his house
and said he was a travelling toothache
doctor and had magic cure which
would relieve the worst case in a short
time. He induced Kintzer to let him
try the cure on him. He applied some
strong liquid to the aching gum, and in
short time the pain became easier and
finally ceased. Kintzer gladly paid the
stranger his fee of 81, and the man went
away.
An hour later Kintzer's tooth began to
pain again, and soon he was in greater
agony than ever. His jaw became
swollen and badly infamed, and the pain
extended to his head and neck. EARLY
yesterday morning physician was sent
for, Kintzer having become insane from
pain. The doctor pronounced him suf-
fering from blood poisoning induced by
the stuff the stranger had used on his
gums. An hour later Kintzer died. No
one knows who was tho travelling dentist,
and no trace Of him has been found.
Kintzer was 81 years old.-Cor. Pitts

Miners Leaving the Comstock.

Owing to the recent frequent drafts in
the mines, Comstock miners are daily
leaving for new camps, and lately many
with their families have taken their de-
parture from the lode. The majority Of
the single men who turn their backs
upon this locality have no special point
in view, but wend their way to Butte,
Mon; Park City, U. t.; Vanderbilt,
Kootenai and other parts, not decided
where they will locate. Every depart
ing train carries away some miner whose
home has been on the Comstock for a
number of years. The mining popula-
ton of Virginia is gradually dwindling,
and it is doubtful whether the major
portion of those departing will ever re-
turn.-Virginia Nev.) Chronicle.
