4 MODEL WIFE.
NE Had . Good Deal to Try Her, but She
Wouidn,t Get Angry.

NE Had . Good Deal to Try Her, but She
wouidn't Get Angry.
The best natured woman in the world
resides insthe city Of Austin. She has
been married number Of years to q
man named Peterby, who Is one Of the
most disagreeable quarrelsome men
outside 81 the Texas legislature. And
yet Mr.. and Mrs. Peterby have never
had quarrel, for the reason that it is
impossible to make her angry. He has
scowled at her and occasionally waited
chair at her, just to see if she wouldn't
get angry, but he suffered disappoint-
ment in each and every instance. Peter
by had been Dragging to his friends
about what q good natured wife he has,
and Gilhooly offered to bet $50 that If
Peterby were to go home, raise a fuss
and pull the tabiecloth full Of dishes off
the table she would show signs Of tenn
per. He had tried that with his wife
once, but he never repeated the expert
ment
Peterby said he, didn I want to rob q
friend Of his money, hut he knew he
could win. AT last he made the bet.
The friend was to watch the proceedings
through q window Peterby came home
apparently Fighting drunk She saw
him coming, went out to the gate,
opened it, kissed him and assisted his
tottering steps into the house. He sat
down hard in the middle of the floor and
howled out:
"Confound your ugly picture, what
did you pull that chair from under me
for?"
ST hope You did not hurt yourself?"
she replied, smiling kindly. II was to
blame for It I am so awkward. But
I'll try and not do It again If You will
forgive ME this time" And she helped
him to his feet although she had moth
ing to do with his falling. He then sat
on the sofa, and sliding off on the floor
abused her like a pickpocket for lifting
up the other end Of the sofa. She said
she was sorry and finally led him to the
supper table. He threw plate at her,
but she lodged it and asked him If no
would take tea or coffee. Then the brute
seized the tablecloth, sat down on the
h0OI ut1u pulkctl tltc SiAouCo Ailtt WY
thing over him in one grand crash
Some women might have lost their tenn
per, but not SO with Mrs. Peterby. She
did not blubber like child; she did not
even sulk or pout With a pleasant smile,
she said:
"Well, George, this is new idea.
We have been married 10 years and
never eaten our supper on the floor;
Won't il be funi Just like those picnics
we used to 60 to before we were mar
ried," and then the angelic woman de-
hberately sat down on the floor along
side of the wretch, arranged the dishes
and fixed him up nice supper. This
broke him up He owned up he was only
fooling her and offered to give her $50
to get herself new dress with. She
took the money and bought him new
suit Of clothes and a box Of cigars with
it. Heaven will have to be repaired and
whitewashed before it is fit for that kind
Of o woman. -Tammany Times.

Saving Fund Versus Bank.

The New York Recorder tells a story
Of young man who was induced to join
a loan association, although somewhat
skeptical of their merits He resolved
as test to put by $1o'a month in the
loan association and similar sum each
month in a savings bank. At the end of
10 years he balanced his cash and found
that he had 81, 800 to his credit in the
association and only 81 in the bank.
This is accounted for by two circum.
stances, one being the dread Of fines if
delinquent in the association, the other
being that the book value of his associ-
alton stock was always so far ahead of
the savings bank account that when he
wished to expend any money he found
IL much less expensive to draw it out of
the bank, hence would not disturb his
shares in the association.

when There Were No plumbers.

Lord Fountainhall, in 1874, says that
there are no plumbers in Scotland, be-
cause there is no need for them. Happy
simplicity of our ancestors Now every
man should be his own plumber. No
man should be allowed to marry till he
has passed an, examination in plain and
fancy plumbing. Few know what to do
If the pipes are frozen or if the gas me-
ter is frozen. If you are practicing with
pistol, however, and casually cut gas

accident is, it must be admitted, less
frequent than sudden flood. Saturday

DIET OF THE GREAT.


Favorite Dishes of the Worlds nlustrious
Generals, Philosophers and Poets.
''Man is what he eats" said Feuer-
bach, the German philosopher, or, as he
expressed it in his native language,
der mensch ist was or isst, play of
words which is not without its deep
meaning. Mans food is never without
influence ON his temper, nor is the choice
he makes in his meals without certain
reflection of his character. John the
Baptist's eating locusts and wild honey
was indicative of his mind and motives,
as was Zoroaster's prediction for bread
and water crosses of his ethics and doc
trines. Plato was satisfied with honey,
bread, vegetables and fruit. Mohammed
preferred mutton and milk to all other
dishes and drinks Hannibal, the Cartha-
gilman warrior, lived ON olives, while
the Roman General Sulla's favorite
meats were wild ass, chickens drowned
in Falerian wine, ostrich brain and
snails.
Charles the Great was lover Of veni-
son. Henry " of France had glut-
tonous appetite for oysters; Frederick
the Great for polenta, a sort Of italian
pudding; Emperor William of Ger
many for Holsters and oysters. Napoleon
l was passionate drinker of coffee, of
which he took 30 to 25 cups daily.
Artists, poets and philosophers evince
a larger variety in the choice of their
meals and beverages. Goethe was very
fond of champagne, Schiller Of wine.
Klopstock INDUCED in rufae pastry,
smoked salmon and peas. Lessing's IA
vorite dish was lentil soup, a prediction
which he shared with Kant, while Leib-
nitz delighted in apple cake Torquato
Tasso was lover of sweet things and
heaped his salad with sugar. So did
Moses Mendelssohn, who mourned the
impossibility of sweetening sugar.
Byron took only one daily meal, con-
sisting principally of old Chester cheese,
pickles, red cabbage, wine or liquors
He used to drink great quantities of tea
Bismarck in his younger days was very
fond of hard boiled eggs and cognac,
which he preferred to "tpretzel and
beer" a beverage which he considers the
chief cause of German pothouse politics
and lack of resolute and harmonious &C
ton.
William II, the present emperor of
Germany, loves his wine and prefers the
sparkling juice of the Rhine, which not
infrequently loosens his tongue. Cham
payne he avoids, lest sit cause his heart
to run away with his head, " as he once
remarked, but probably because it is too
French for him-Baltimore Sun.

A Rottomless Lake In sweden.

In Thomas Nashe's '"Terrors of the
