Forgot He Was Married.

A story is told of newly welded couple
who were guests at the Kennedy House.
Chattanooga. The man registered like
this; August Buerger and wife" He re-
manned one day, and when he stepped up
TO ask the amount Of his bill Clerk Bay
less said it would be 81.
-Four dollars!" Mr.. Buerger said. "Why,
your rates are rather high, aren't they?"
mo, l guess not That's only 50 a
day."
"But 1 have been here only one day"
II know it, but it is 3d." Mr.. Bayless
replied.
How do you figure thatP" the newly
welded man asked as he leaned over the
counter with a frown of perplexity on his
otherwise blissful features.
"Well, there's yourself, one day, SO; and
there's your wife, one day, 50; two and
two make four"
Then the fellow slammed his fist down
on the register while crimson flush Of
blood suffused his cheeks.
well, I'll swear" he cried, 'if didn' t
forget all about her, I'll eat my hat. Here,
take this V, keep the change and say moth
ing about it, please"
But the clerk didn't keep the change, so
he didn't think there was any reason why
he shouldn't tell the story, which he did,
and thus it's told.-Hotel Reporter.

They Do, They Do.

''There must be IN the hearts of all chill
dren," said father, IAN innate love for
dirt They may be the children Of fiat
jewellers and living in q street in which
no blade Of grass ever peeps, but at the
first opportunity they take to the earth
with keen enjoyment. Let the authorities
tear up the street pavement and dig a
trench for water pipe. The ridge Of earth
that the men throw up is to the children q
mountain range Of delight. They dig in
it, and they toss it about, and bring water
out of their houses and make mud pies of
it gladly and as naturally as though they
had been born and reared in some place
where the earth comes to the surface.
Surely all children like to play in the
dirt. New York Sun.

Harmful to Neglect to Wear Glasses When
They Are Needed.

do you not think that much harm re-
suits from the use of improper glasses"
asked a representative of the Boston Her
aid of an oculist.
u think it Is very injurious to wear
glasses unsuitcd to the eyes 1t is also
very harmful to neglect to wear glasses
when the eyes require them.
There is hardly known ailment which
cannot be said in some cases to have its
origin in defective eyesight. Headache,
pains IN the back, nausea, vertigo, are all
symptoms of eye troubles"
us it possible to have an affection Of
the eyes without knowing itH"
YES, for the reason that 1t manifests
itself in 30 many different ways. Usual
ly, however, your family physician begins
to suspect something when he finds that
his remedies for your ailments have had
no effect. If you have periodic headaches,
sick headaches and the like, your physician
will probably send you to an ooulist."
If it is true, as there are many reasons
to believe, that these diseases are caused
by defective eyesight, then the eye becomes
much more important factor than q
mere visual organ, and we are able to see
that ''if the eye be evil' there is no esti-
mating chow great is that darkness"
Yet, notwithstanding the fact that the
eye is our best friend and that blindness is
generally considered the worst Of bodily
Affections, we continue our 'pennywise'
policy of reading the little tidbits in the
newspapers today and making up for it at
the end by the rebellion of the eyes against
such long continued abuse.
Then when we feel the need of some
compromise with nature VIC commit the
next worst fault Of selecting our own
glasses.
There is only one class Of people, " says
an eminent oculist, who can safely Sc
lect pair Of glasses without the advice of
q specialist, and that is the class who
have never had any trouble with their
eyes until the age of 40. Then it can usual
ly be assumed that the cause of failing
eyesight is increasing age, and this is cas-
lily corrected"
1T is especially dangerous" said my
doctor of the hospital, "for nearsighted
people to select their own glasses. In
nearly all cases they choose lens which
Is too strong, and this only increases the
error of refraction in the eye"
II have read that seven out Of every ten
persons have some error of refraction
which requires correction with glasses. Do
you think that defective eyesight is be-
coming more prevalent than formerlyH"
with advancing civilization, the doc
tor replied, 1.-THE causes for eye strain be-
come more numerous, and then, of course,
we know more about the eye and are able
to detect its faults more readily"

Tho Great Palace.

According to Bishop Liutprand Of Gre
mona, in his account of his embassy to
the court Of Nicephorus Phocas, the gold
en- chamber of Constantinople was the
most splendid part Of the whole palace.
If Justin rebuilt it, Theophilus and Con-
stantine VII did much for its decoration.
Theophilus made O silver table ''for the
accommodation of the guests and the
adornment Of the palace" in which so
many foreigners and courtiers Toasted with
the emperor. A great chandelier hung
from the center of the hall over the table.
The famous golden tree, so often men
toned in ACCOUNTS Of the palace, was con-
structed by Theophilus birds sitting
on the branches sung by some mechanism,
the air being supplied by concealed pas
sages" The walls were ornamented with
mirrors and colored tiles, "affording the
more pleasure to the guests owing to the
delicious nature Of the viands" Besides
making the silver doors-into the Triple
ton-Constantine VII ornamented the
walls and ceiling of the Chrysotriklinos
with flowers and leaves framed In silver
circles.
In the golden chamber the most strik-
ing object must have been the Pentapyr-
gion, Of which unluckily no accurate de-
scription has survived. 1t was "a mag
niflcent structure Of wood covered with
gold. Within and without it was hung
a great variety Of decorations, golden or
naments and the imperial robes" At the
feast Of Easter 1t was the custom that
small table should be placed for the en-
peror in the Pentapyrgion, while the for
eign ambassadors whom he invited dined
at the golden table below him. Thus it
would seem to have been a sort Of throne
arranged for the purposes of q dining hall

GYPSlES IN HUNGARY.
They Increase In Spite of Persecution and
Are Interchangeable.

In Hungary there are according to q
rough estimate, about $50, 900 gypsies,
vagabonds who wander about the country
with their carts and horses, accompanied
by their women and children, and though
at one time prosecuted as unbelievers and
hunted to death as sorcerers and PRISONERS
the cruel edicts which enjoined such treat
msnt were never sympathized in by the
Hungarian people. The result is that the
gypsies have increased, and in their own
thriftless, squalid fashion prospered de-
spite the hard usage they have received
at the hands of their rulers.
Indeed the Hungarian kings have more
than once protected them as poor wan
dering people without country and whom
oil the world rejected" and granted them
safe conducts to go wherever seemed good
to them with their troops Of donkeys and
horses. Joseph II Of Austria tried to set
tie them as agriculturists and had huts
built for them. But instead of occupying
the comfortable dwellings themselves they
stabbed their cattle In them and pitched
their tents outside. Then to prevent their
corn from sprouting they borFd it before
sowing, and though their children were
taken from them and trained up into
habits of work under Magyar and German
peasants these wildlings soon escaped and
Joined their parents without having learn
ed anything from their foroible apprentice
ship to civilization. 1t is affirmed that
gypsy who had actually risen to the rank
of an officer in the Austrian army disap-
peared one day and was found six months
afterward with band Of Zingari en-
camped on the heath.
A young Slovaok peasant fell in love
with and married gypsy girl, but IN. his
absence she escaped to the woods, and
when discovered was sleeping under the
skies and feeding on hedgehogs, after the
fashion Of the race from whom she had
been taken. The Abbe Liszt, charmed
with the talent for music displayed by
gypsy boy, took him to Paris and tried to
train the little lad. But all In vain. The
moment he saw his own people in Vienna
his delight was Understandable. There was
no longer any hope of keeping him undY
the restraint Of polite nfe.--

A Relic of the Past.

Scorpions are relics of prehistoric times
They have been in existence since the mid
die Silurian era, and through all the
changes in environment in the millions Of
years which have elapsed they have re-
manned practically the same in structural
character, in habit. There Is little, If any,
evidence that these animals, in the past
days of their history, have ever gained
livelihood by means other than those en-
ployed at the present day. But, though
abundance Of time has been granted them
to become specialized into any number Of
strange forms, they have retained Won
derful resemblance to the original genera.
Although the arms Of the sea constitute
barriers which scorpions cannot pass, and
although their means Of dispersal arc very
limited, the antiquity of the animal is SO
great that it has succeeded in distributing
itself over the greater part Of the globe,
outside Of the arctic areas, and before the
present period their distribution was even
greater. Ledger.

WHAT THE COMPOSER THOUGHT.
The Woman Took Him at His Word and
Reported 1t.

The Woman Took Him at His Word and
Reported 1t.
"Pagliacci" was to be given on one oc-
casion, but no ono knew of Leoncavallo's
arrival. "Ho went TO the door and bought
his ticket. The house was full and no one
recognized him. He listened, but natural
ly did not join in the loud applause which
greeted Misrepresentation. Next to him sat
q pretty young woman with lively dark
eyes, who beat her little hands as though
she was to be rewarded for it.
"'Signor, she said, turning to Leonca-
vallo, why do you not applaud Does the
opera not please youY
"'Not at all, came the answer Of the
composer, who enjoyed the possibility of
some fun at his own expense. 1t dis
pleases me. 1t is the work of beginner,
to say nothing worse.
"'Then you understand nothing about
music, replied the young woman.
''Oh, yes, I do And the composer
then began to talk Of the counterpoint and
other technical characteristics of the piece
with his fair neighbour And as to origi-
nality, he continued, there is none. See,
this motive was taken from - and he
whistled tune to correspond. That air
was stolen from Bizet and that from Bee
thoven,' he added as bar after bar was
chanted. He declined to admit that the
opera had single merit
after the curtain had fallen and the
young woman was about to leave the thea
ter, she turned again to her disconnected
neighbor and asked If the opinion ex-
pressed Of his opera was genuine one
and received an affirmative reply With
merry and malicious look she babe him
goodby.
{" On the following morning'-the COM
poser may be allowed to tell the ending of
the story himself-'I was still in bed when
the waiter brought me my coffee and one
of the morning papers 1 hurriedly
glanced through the journal, when my eye
fell on the headline, "Leoncavallo's Opin-
ion of His 'Pigliacci." 1 read it-and-
well, you may imagine my feelings at see
ing word for word what 1 had told my
pretty neighbor concerning the work on
the night before. She was a reporter of
the paper and had taken her revenge. 1
vowed then that I should never again say
an unfavorable word about my operas es-
pecially to ladies. st Louis Republic.

Soldiers and Kings.

Soldiers do not, as rule revolt The
modern organizers Of armies have con-
trived not only to make them terribly ef-
f1cient, but to inspire them with political
morality and sense of honor different from
that Of the nation, so that from the mo-
ment the recruit passes his first drill les
sons discipline becomes to him religion,
and he will fire on his father If ordered by
the minister of war. He becomes, in fact,
a member Of caste whose caste rule is
obedience and will no more revolt than
monks will revolt because they do not like
the abbot. If he is fairly fed and decently
treated, his military pride overpowers all
other impulses, at least until defeat arrives
in the field, and nothing gratifes that
pride more than to feel that he, and he
alone, visibly upholds the state We may
be utterly wrong, but we do not believe
that the possibility of military tyrannies
has passed away and think that when the
expected contest between tho republicans
and the thrones arrives the kings, If they
choose to fight, will make much harder
and longer battle of it than Is generally
imagined.-London Spectator.

III have heard Of eating snails and grub
worms" said L. D. Daniels, but never
knew Of but one man who ever ate angle
worms. He was a negro and preferred
the Shiny creatures to any dish that could
DO set before him. They were not prepar-
ed In any way before cooking, but placed
alive in a hot skillet, with the bottom
well CREASED and fried until they were crisp
and brown. They looked appotizing, but
I could never DO induced to cat any Of
them, notwithstanding the negro's evident
relish and the fact that they looked much
better than dish Of snails. ''-Cincinnati
