Mark Twain once expressed a desire
to attend the annual dinner Of the
GridirOn Club of correspondents in
Washington; but when an invitation
was sent him, his regrets were received
by return mail. Meeting a member Of
the club later, he complained that he
had been neglected. When informed
that an invitation had been sent him
and his regrets received. Mr.. Clemens
scratched his head, as though in per-
pleXity for a moment, and then said:
"ThOse were ISaac's regrets" "WhO is
Isaac?" "He's my keeper. Hes the
man my wife hired to prevent me hav-
ing any more fun" Mark then eX-
planned that Isaac opened all his let
ters and invitations, wrote answers,
which in the case of invitations always
consisted Of regrets, and then burned
them. When asked what is Isaac's
other name, the humorist replied, sad

Blunt Old Bismarck.

much In the habit Of bullying. One
evening, when at large social gather
Ing. Bismarck and Prokesch, surround.

were discussing a protocol based on
certain equivocations, Prokesch said,
looking straight at Bismarck: IF that
were not true, then 1, in the name OF
my imperial master, should have been
guilty Of lyingw Returning his gaze
without a symptom of faltering, "Pre-
cisely so, your excellency," slowly said
Bismarck. The group, thunderstruck
and embarrassed, scarcely knew which
way to turn Prokesch moved away;

A Big Mistake.

The biggest mistake and tie funniest
I ever knew merchant to make was
when one of my friends concluded 10
snend $40 to have illustrated signs
paintcd on fences and barns in the
country. The pictures were all humor-
GUS and in colors, to be painted on
white background. One was Dullfrog
reaching out after bug; another dog,
catching O fellow by the seat OF his
pants. and another a snake and BIRD.
n sort of a take-off on The "early Dlrd
catches the first worm" Well, the
PAINTER used whitewash and cheap
colors. After the first rain the bull
frog picture and the words OF the adj
yertisement got wonderfully Dlended
together. and the bull dog was made
to chew the advertisers name instead
of the other fellows trousers; at least
that is the way the blur made 1t ap-
near. After the second rain there was
only O vague sort Of an indication OF
an advertisement, the water having
washed out some words and letters and
leaving others untouched. For in
stance. the line purchase your bug
giles" on one sign appeared as "Chase

Soldering in the Orchestra

The last echo Of one of Sousa's over
lures was just dying away over the
sandhills south Of the Fair grounds
when Gen. Schofield stepped in front or
the band and saluted the distinguished
leader. Sousa returned the salute and
sent one of his men to escort the Cen
eral I'D into the band stand. THAT mu-
sic was beautiful-beautifulw eXclaim-
ed the General, as he shook Sousa's
hand warmly. 81 am astOnished, sir,
that you get such results with so little
discipline. There is nothing that SOusa
brides himself more on than being one
of the strictest of disciplinarians, and
he was naturally nettled at the Gener-
ais criticism. "Why, General, my men
are under perfect control. I'm sure they
are thoroughly drilled, and / can hard
ly believe that there is any lack of dis
cipline. / haven't noticed it," mo,
that's just it; you don't see it, persisted
the General. 81 saw it, though. Do you
know that as soon as you turn your
back on one side of your band to shake
your baton at the other those fellows
all quit playing? OF course, You don't
see it, for as soon as you turn around
they begin again. Franciso

Eggs

Among reptiles the eggs exhibit great
variety. The eggs of the alligator are
elongated and almost cylindrical,
evenly rounded at both ends, and about
the size Of an ordinary ducks egg.
The eggs Of the sea turtle are as large
as a small apple, rounded, and have
flexible shell. Those Of the swapping
turtle are much smaller, but also
rounded. Those of the terrapins and
other genera are OblOng, as also are
those of lizards. In common black and
yellow-dotted American fresh-water
terrapins, and in the painted terrapin,
the eggs require four years of growth
before they are laid. Take seven
year-Old turtle of this kind. 1t will
contain only very small eggs, all of uni
form size. An eight-year-Old tortoise
of the same kind will have two sets Of
eggs, one larger and one smaller One
of nine years will have three sets Of
eggs, the oldest set being the size Of a
small pea. A tortoise Of ten will have
four sets of eggs, and in that year she
will lay for the first time, and give
birth to the most mature sets.

Moderate eating through life does
nuch to retard old age. 4 diet con-
tanning minimum amount Of earthly
particles preserves the system from
functional blOckages. OsSitic matter
deposited in the body through long
years of unthinking diet must be dis
solved as far as practicable. Attention
must be given to the drinking water;
much of it contains lime in excessive
proportion, or other mineral clements.
Distilled water and acid fruits are eftl-
caciOus and the least harmful. Their
chemical action retards the stiffening
of the joints, rheumatism and, in fact,
old age. The daily use Of distilled wa
ter is, after middle life, one Of the most
important means of preventing secre-
tions and the arrangement of health.
This rule observed, and taking plenty
of fruit especially juicy uncooked ap-
pies, avoiding all foods rich in earthly
salts. physical decay or deterioration
will be kept at bay.

PREPARING FOR WAR.
