1t is customary on the continent Of
Europe to charge extra for heating a
bedroom, no matter how bitter the
weather but it remained for a New
England hotel keeper to charge double
rates for heating a room for two.

is in a town so remote from civilization
that 'Uncle Toms Cabin" is the only

Human Labor at Great Attitudes.

Investigation among the workmen on
the Peruvian Central railroad has
brought some curious facts to light con-
cerning the capabilities of men to labor
in rarefed atmosphere. The line starts
at Lima, in latitude ~ degrees, and the
highest point reached by the road is at
the tunnel of Galeria, which is 15, 645
feet above sea level From deductions
made by the investigators, it appears
that the men were able to perform a
fair "sea level" days work at any place
along the route where the altitude was
not greater than 5000 or 10000 feet,
providing they had gradually worked up
to that height from lower levels. At
attitudes above 10, 900 feet and under
12, 900 the amount of work performed
by each man showed a sudden falling
off of from one-fourth to one-third, and
at from 13, 900 to 1000 feet 100 men
could do no more work than 80 would
at sea level. st. Louis Republic.

The World on a Side Wall.

On the wall of one of the big down
town steamship companies offices is a
huge map representing the earth. On
this are miniature ships about two
inches long, representing in the aggre-
gate the company's feet. From day to
day, according to the average rate OF
speed of the vessel, the dummy is moved
in her course so that any one looking up
at the wall can tell exactly where every
vessel is, or rather ought to be, at the
moment. OF course storms or accidents
may vary the actual and supposed posi-
tion, but when things go right with the
vessel the owners are apt to get cable
announcing the arrival Of the ship at
her port ON the same day that, accord
ing to the dummy, she ought to have
reached it.-New York Mail and Ex-
press.

Half Married For Half an Hour.

At Dunmow parish church the. we'd
ding Of coal porter with young
woman formerly employed at the vicar
age was interrupted in curious man
ner. The bride and groom were kneel-
ing at the chancel steps for the first part
Of the ceremony, and as they rose to go
to the communion rails to complete the
rite the best man, probably thinking it
was all over, hurriedly snatohed kiss
from the bride in accordance with an
old custom which is still observed in
many country towns. The officiating
clergyman, the Rev. G. c. Naters Gu
rate in charge, was most indignant at the
proceedings and ordered the wedding
party to leave the church for half an
hour. The partially married couple lin
gered about the precincts for that period
of time when the offended clergyman
returned, and after admonishing the
best man, who was the BRIDES brother
in-law, for his levity in interrupting
the service in the manner he had he
proceeded to finish the ceremony.

What's In a Name?

The custom Of naming flats after
their builders or owners is a growing
one and sometimes results in a curious
combination. Just below me are two
new flathouses, built last summer. One
was named albert, and ON the plate
glass front door of the adjoining one
was the word Madeira" it having
been built by patriotic gentleman
who names his flathouses after various
wines. But the latter was sold TO man
named Hawkins, who forthwith put his
own name up. So now the combination
is complimentary to the old time and
widely known White House coachman,

Ancient Musical Instruments.

In the Metropolitan Museum of Art
In New York city there is an interesting
collection Of musi cal instruments of all
nations, many of which belong to past
centuries. They lie silently in the glass
cases The strings of mandolins and
lutes that made sweet music in days
gone by are broken and twisted, and
the fingers that once swept them have
passed away, but still the air seems
trembling with melody. Imagination
pictures the banquet hall, the summer
nights when the troubadour sang songs
under his ladylove's window, or the
Bedouin camp in the desert, where the
flute and guitar were played during the
evening hour of repose. There are in
struments here of all characters-rude
violins and banjos fashioned by savage
hands, and dainty Tyres inlaid with gold
and mother of pearl, instruments which
have played their part in ancient cere-
monies in faraway India and China, in
the castles of the middle ages and in the
African wilderness. 1t is interesting to
note that all nations have tried to make
instruments to please the eye as we'll
as to produce sweet sounds. The stringed
instruments and flutes of savage races
are often grotesque and even ugly to
civilized eyes, but the poor savage did
his best. He carved his instruments as
well as he could and also adorned it
with whatever precious trinlzets he had
in his possession. H. S. Conant in St
Nicholas.

IS II TO LOVE OR TO BE Lovepl

Who cares for love n one may lover
In thet the rapture lies.
What rsalSs a heart that It be won
If it may win the prize2
Thee Is no heart which stays at hUnno,
Contented to be sought,
But, ever restless. seeks to win
The heart where love is fought.
Yet hearts are not all conquerors.
Sometimes a doubling one
Is overcome, and as n slave
Its Intercourse is run.
The heart thus conquered may submit
And seldom will rebel,
But dreams of triumph come to 1t
Contentment to dispel.
How oft in story and in song
We read of those who die
For those they Lowell They take no thought
OF other reason why.
But is there in the crown of love
Great sacrifice, this gem
OF martyrdom-thlt any die
For those who most love them2

A Pass From Almost a Stranger.

The man about town who is always
nodding to people and making himself
agreeable even to comparative strangers
had a little experience the other day
which goes to prove that politeness and
civility sometimes pay in financial
as well as social sense He was stand
ing in the railroad station in Baltimore,
waiting for the train to New York,
when he noticed man who kept glanc-
ing at him. Every time he looked in
the direction of the stranger he noticed
that his eyes were turned toward him.
Strolling over that way, he bowed to
the stranger.

thought you recognized me- "
