The Prevailing stuniditx.

The misfortunes Of Mr.. Oneslme
Matthew, who put 81, 200 in rubber
shoe which he hid so securely that he
was the only person who could not
find it, his quest for II and the arrest
Of a man charged with converting
to his own use the strange receptacle
and Its contents, were told In the
Transcript yesterday. They point a
moral, and for anybody but Mr.
Matthew they adorn tale. The
moral is that people who will not
trust banks with their money have
unlimited confidence in rubber shoes,
old coffee-pots, and stoves
A few weeks ago very aged and
very penurious woman, a resident OF
a New Jersey town, where she dwelt
alone with her conscience and seven
teen cats, was taken sick, and on a
search of her house being made by
the friends who rallied round her,
money and valuables to a consider
able amount were found In q rusty
old cofHee-pot on the top shelf Of a
cupboard. Quite recently two maiden
ladies In Maine, or Michigan, or Min
nesota, 1t matters not which, forgot
that they kept their money in a
stove and started a fire on chilly
day, to the immediate reduction OF
their available cash assets.
A few years ago a hotelkeeper in
Southern Massachusetts thought 1t
was the part OF wisdom to save up
gold. He had quite a golden store,
together with a comfortable quantity
Of greenbacks, under his feather bed
when his hotel burned down. The
gold melted, but the greenbacks went
up in smoke, and, as they did not
leave their numbers or other means
of Identification behind them, were a
total loss.
Possibly the fact that no one ever
heard of a rubber shoe or coffee pot
or cook stove plunderlng a bank aud
running off to Canada may make
them fayorltes with those who are
chronlcally distrustful, as otherwise
the preference for them as places Of
deposit for money is quite inexplica-
BILE. The use Of money by good
many heavy capitalists, who think
themselves very smart In adding to
to financial distrust and distress by
putting 1t away In safe-deposlt tins,
is not much brighter, for they are
only lengthening out their loss Of In
terest all the while. Boston Tran

The soldiers comet
Runny,s Blunder.

Bunny is the cutest little snow
white rabbit you ever saw. He is
quite tame, and he blinks at you very
wisely with his queer pink eyes. He
is very fond Of his little mistress,
she Is so good to him. He always
wants to be with her, and he will fol-
low her every opportunity he gets.
One morning little Mistress Mary and
her mamma we're going to ride to
town in the street cars to do some
shopping. Mary said goOd-by to
Bunny and left him, as she thought,
securely shut up in his little house,;
but Just as she and her mamma were
seated in the car, who do you suppose
jumped in after them? Why Mr..
Bunny, to be sure! And he was as
alarmed as his little mistress was
surprised. for when the Car began to
move, Mr.. Bunny wanted to get off.
He had never been In a car before,
and the motion frightened him. He
ran up and down the car and no one
could catch him. There was great
deal of laughing and talking at the
sight Of him; and the conductor had
to stop the car and let Mistress Mary
and her mamma get off and take
their mischievous pet back home.
This they did, and 1 can assure you
that when they left the house again
Mr.. Bunny was shut up so securely
that he had no chance Of getting out
and trying to steal a ride to town.

not say their names. He knows that
M stands for mamma and P for papa.
When he finds M on his blocks he
will point to mamma, and when he

finds P, he will point to papa. He
knows that N stands for nurse, and
D for doctor, and best of all, he
knows that S stands for sugar. Baby
kins is fond Of sugar, and wishes that
he could have the sugar bowl and eat
all he wanted to, instead Of having a
little tiny bit. One day when
mamma was helping him build his
blocks, he looked around for the
sugar bowl, but nursie had taken it
downstairs. So Babykins took a
block with the letter S on. Mamma,
he said, and pointed to S, smacking
his lips as he did when he had some
sugar. Mamma kissed him over and
over again, for being so wise. Now
Babyklns believes that is the way for
little boy who cannot talk, to ask
for sugar. -Babyland.

the garden or crawled or jumped into
the garden. Tenula did not. She
walked into the garden. 1t Is by SUCH
developments Of hidden impulses that
character can be gagged. In this
connection 1T Ia exceedingly import
ant to note that Tellula walked into
the garden. She did not walk over
1t or under 1t or around it or across
it, No, her physical and mental and
moral structure did not admit Of such
possibilities, Casting aside the vaga-'
rles, the whlms, the petty caprices
Of her sex, she walked into the gar,
den. All, how every act Of our lives
leaves its Impress on the characterI
This fact could hardly be demon
strated more forclbly than by Tellula's
action in walking into the garden.
She might have walked into a garden
any garden. But she didn't. Not
much. She walked into the garden.
How pregnant with possibilities is
this subtle distinction on Tellula's
part Finally, in order to gain a
clear understanding of the girls
character, the reader will observe
that Tellula walked into the garden,
AlasI How many women might have
walked into the duck pond or the
corn bin or the pig pen! Tellula did
not She walked into the garden.
We may wonder at the young girls
insight into the true nature Of things,
aud her marvellous judgment; but
then it must be remembered that
Tellula was not an ordinary girl.

Measuring the Power of Light.

The method of measuring the
candle-power Of light is simply to
move an object along graded scale,
away from the light, until 1t ceases
to cast a shadow; mark on the
scale at this point indicating the
candle-power of the flame. 1t is
apparent that the shadows thrown
are to a great extent dependent on
the intensity Of the light Thus
water-gas, which gives a more in
tense light to given area than coal
gas, casts a strong shadow in the
measuring machine, but when put
to practical use it does not illuminate
a room so well, not having so great
diffusive power as a cOal-gas light as
the same measured candle-power.
An analogous case is that of the
sixteen candle power incandescent
light. 1t is very intense, but does
not illuminate a room as well as a
gaslight ofeQual candle-power What
the public wants is better illumina-
tion, and it would seem that some
other standard should be devised
than the admittedly imperfect one
of candle-power.
