\ Conscientious Cab Driver.

A famous English actor once under
took to take part in a certain amateur
performance at Richmond, but as he
had to act the same evening in the
first piece at the Haymarket as Lord
Fopling, he had not much time to
lose He accordingly stepped from
the theater into a cab in his stage attire
and used the vehicle, on his way to
Waterloo station, as dressing-room,
taking out of his carpet bag the smock
frock and CATERS in which he was to
play his role later on. He had not a
minute to spare, and, throwing his
fare to the cabman, was about to rush
into the booking Office, when he found
himself pinioned from behind the
driver had got him fast.
"Let me go, you fool. I have paid
YOU sixpence more than your fare al
ready Hang your siSpence! You
are a murderer! Police, police!' The
actor was. soon in custody, and this
was his accuser's story. "This country
man has murdered nobleman VINO
engaged my 'keb' in the Haymarket:'
It took some time to explain matters
and in the meantime the actor lost his

HOW YOU KNOW IT.
Clear and Indisputable Meaning of
Much misunderstood Word.

Clear and Indisputable Meaning of a
Much misunderstood Word.
In learned circles of the East there
has developed controversy on the
subject of the true meaning of the word
jag" The Century Dictionary's def
nltlon,. "as much liquor as one can
carry, is both attacked and defended
Among those who have taken active
part in the debate is Dr. Edward Eggles-
ton. New Englanders of the old sort
will generally modify the Century Die
tionary's definition. A Gag" is not
as much as can be carried, but is small,
or, as one may say, imperfect load. A
jag OF hay'' means remainder load,
or part of load raked together and
thrown on wagon without being sys-
tematically built up at the corners as
is full load. A jag Of wood" is less
than full cord, in fact an unmeasured
amount. The term jag" as applied to
drinks, should therefore mean a small,
unsystematic, unconsidered drunk"
thrown in unmeasured, and by no
means up to the full tonnage or ca
pacity of the vehicle.-Ka1asas Citg Star.

Brace the Nerves

sedatives and opiates won't do it. These
nervines do not make the nerves strong, and
failing to do this fall short of producing the
essential of their quietude-vigor. And while
in extreme cases~and these only--of nervous
irritation such drugs may be advisable, theil
frequent use is highly pre- judicial to the
in order TO renew their quoting effect IL
creased and dangerous doses eventually be

is an efficient substitute for such pernicious
ing, strengthening them. The connection be
tween weakness of the nervous system and
that of the organs of digestion is a strong and
a healthful impulse to the digestive and as
similating functions, promotes throughout the
whole system vigor in which the nerves come
in fora large share. Use the Bitters in malaria

Helen Gould's Charity.

Miss Helen Gould has purchased
what is known as the ''Liberty Preston
house and lot at Robbery, Delaware
County, adjoining the Gould Memorial
Church, for 81, 500. She has decided a
strip twenty feet wide to the Reformed
Society. It is said Miss Gould will use
the house as home for poor and friend
less children of New York City. The
exterior work on the Memorial Church
is practically finished and the work oil
completing the interior will be pushed,
SO that the dedication can be held in
the early summer.

leaves the Hartford the only ship of the
oio navy which is exempt from relega-
tlon to the "bone-yard," and puts the
pollcy OF sentiment in the naming of
our War-shlps very close to utter ex-
JUNCTION. Hereafter our ships will be
named after states and cities, in the or
der OF their size.
Sentiment plays an important part in
war, and there are many who regret
this change. There are regiments in
the British army which proudly carry
names that are lustrous with the glory
OF historic deeds, and there are
ships in the British navy which are
named for vessels of the past which
carried the Union Jack to victory in
great sea fights. It would please
thousands of Americans if the
Navy Department were to perpet-
uate such names as Constitution
kearsarge and Hartford in the nomen-
clature Of our war-ships. How it would
thrill the American sailor to see a Bon
Homme Richard steam into line in a
fleet of American iron-clads !
Sentiment is powerful incentive to
action in war, and it plays an important
part in molding the policies of nations

occurrences as that just reported from

A Costly Jewel.

The most expensive ruby that has
ever been imported into this country
was one that, at wholesale, cost $50, 900.
1t was retailed toa wealthy Californian
for almost double that price. A greater
number of engagement rings are pur-
chased during the months of February
and April than any other months of the
year. The reason for this cannot be
elucidated, unless it is because Febru-
airy is the month previous to Lent and
April the month following.
