Taking Off the Hat.

If man is not in the habit of tax
ing off his hat to any woman GER
tainly no individual woman can feel
affronted at the omission. But there
are times when woman has reason
to feel Indignation instance, when
a young man is more punctilious in
lifting his hat when observers are
around than he is when no one is in
sight.
The inference is that he is being
polite for the benefit of other people
and not out Of respect for the woman
he meets. 1t is usually this same
young man who sometimes forgets
to lift his hat to his women friends
when they happen to be in rainy day
costume. Good clothes are evidently
at a premium with im.-Manches-

One of Whittier,s Letters.

Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, in paper
on Whittier in The Century, quotes
the following extract among others
from the poets letters to her:
Thus far the summer has not
brought me the release from pain and
weakness which l expected. I am
only comfortable when body and
mind are idle. Time passes so swiftly,
there is SO much l want to say and

a Rural Region Near New York.


just west of the Hudson and above
Weehawken is a region as rural and
antique as any $50 miles from New
York. Although this region is almost
within rife shot of Riverside drive it
is sparsely settled and difficult of ac-
cess. Its inhabitants are descended
from Dutch settlers, who found their
way into the region after better and
more accessible lands had been occu-
pied. 1t was part of this district that
was bought up ten or fifteen years
ago by a syndicate including William
Walter Phelps and Rutherford B.
Hayes. The expected developments
never followed, and those of the syn
dlcate who were not rich enough to
hold on sold out to those who could
afford to wait. Mr.. Phelps now holds
a great deal of the syndicate's orig
inal purchase. ga
One of the purchasers has held on
to his land amid all sorts of difficult
ties and at the expense of much self
sacrifice on the part of himself and
his family. The prophecy that re-
gion so near New York must in ten
years have population of many
thousands has fallen ludicrously
short of fulfillment as even now the
inhabitants scarcely number more
than they did twenty-five years ago.

An Aeronaut,s Terrible Fxperiepce

During the year 1894 Gay-Lussac
made a balloon ascension alone in
which he reached a height of $4,000
feet. This ascension was made from
one of the many pleasure resorts of
Paris in the heat of summer. When
he quilted the earth the Fahrenheit
thermometer registered Sc dogs. in
the shade; within an hour he was in
an atmosphere that only showed
pressure of thirteen inches on his
barometer, while the thermometer
marked IS dogs. below zerol The
lack of atmospheric pressure caused
the blood to flow from his eyes, nose,
mouth and ears, and the extreme cold
gave him rigor from which he never
fully recovered.-St Louis Republic.

MultipIes of Nine and SIX.

Possibly it was the belief in the
supposed influence of nine and SIX
on mems lives that originally gave
rise to the custom of granting leases
for multiples of seven and nine years.
Never for an even hundred or
thousand, for fear of the power of
the evil one. Nine, the trinity of the
trinities, is the perfect plural, and is
credited with mystic properties. As
might be supposed, therefore, many
superstitions are connected with it.

The Greek Year.

The Greek year consisted of three
seasons only. Prometheus enumer-
ates them. They had no sign, says
he, "of winter, of flowery spring, of
fruitful summer" In ancient Ger
many similar division of the year
prevailed, for Tacitus makes the
caustic remark that among the Ger
mans winter, spring and summer
have meaning and a name, but to
that people the name and blessings
of autumn are alike unknown.
1t is not likely, then, that our Sax
on forefathers were acquainted with
the last named season, and our very
term autumn is an echo of the Ro.
man tongue. Gentleman's Maya

THE DOOR TO THE HOUSE.

There were idle thoughts came in the door
And warmed their little toes,
And did more mischief about the house
Than any one living knows.
Ihey scratched the tables and broke the chairs
And soiled the floor and wall,
for motto was written above the door,
There's welcome here for ALL"
"4en the master saw the mischief done
he closed it with hope and fear,
And he wrote ,.bove instead, Let none
Save good thoughts enter here"
And the good little thoughts came trooping in
When he drove the others out.
Ihey cleaned the walls and they swept the floor.
And sang as they moved about
And last of all an angel came
with wings and a shining face,
And above the door he wrote. .Here love
Has found DIV c1ng place"

A Politician Tells How ''To Eat Crow"

The origin of the expression ito eat

town clubhouse ON evening recently,
and one white headed old politician
accounted for it in this way.
Years ago." he said, "a soldier
stationed on Governors island wan

thepasture lands just north of Cham

he spied a crow hopping about among
the cows, and he instantly aimed his
gun at it and shot it dead AS he did
so ragged little boy, who had been
watching him dashed off with wild
yell in the direction of distant
house. The soldier laughed at what
he thought to be the boys terror at
the report of the gun, and laying it
down carefully at the foot of the tree
he went to pick up the crow.
After that something else at
tracted his attention, and he did not
think of his gun again till he heard
an angry voice behind him, and turn
ing around he found himself gazing
straight down the barrel. A furious
Dutchman was at the other end of the
gun. The soldier had shot the Dutch
mans pet crow, the boy had borne
testimony to the deed, and now for
the penalty. F Aff 4 f
"Sparlng you the recital of the
heated conversation which followed.
the result was that the Dutchman
spared the soldiers life only on con-
dition that he would straightway eat
the crow he had shot. The soldier
argued vehemently, but to no pur-
pose. He finally secured permission
to pluck the crow and cook it a little
over a fire made with few chips.
Then he began to eat, but before he
had eaten more than half of the car
rion bird he became SO sick that he
swore he would rather be shot than
finish it. .a. 4r So

took the gun, but instead of begon-

Dutchman's head and vowed to blow
his grains out if he did not at once
eat the other half of the crow. The
Dutchman was compelled by fear of
death to swallow the rest of the loath-
some flesh, and then the soldier de-
parted, leaving the injured Dutch
man ready to burst with rage and
chagrin.
THE latter swore vengeance. and
next day appeared on Governors
island and made complaint to the
commandant that one of the soldiers
had wantonly shot his tame crow.
The commandant told the Dutchman
to pick out the offender and heshould
bepunished. The Dutchman pointed
to a soldier not far away and identi-
fed him.
Calling the soldier to him, the
commandant said sternly, Did YOU
