His Evil eve ouailetl the 1talians.

One Of the many superstitious fears
that render the laborers from sunny
Italy so generally docile was recently
taken advantage of by shrewd Irish
foreman employed on a public job.
There was misunderstanding likely
to result in a general strike, and he.
assembled the men together, listen
ing patiently to their statement of
grievances. When they concluded,
he called to his side the bookkeeper
Of the contractor, a man with pene-
trating dark eyes. one of them quite
still because it was artificial The
foreman stated with emphasis the
only terms upon which he would
compromise, and the bookkeeper
kept his ''evil eye" fixed on the
crowd. The terms were accepted
without a murmur, and the crowd
hastily dispersed. The bookkeeper
was entirely unconscious Of perform
ing any part in determining the con-
ersy.-Philadelphia Record.

DR.. Bones wife was awakened by
a noise in her room the other night,
and whe1s she sat up in bed she saw
the doctor standing over the arm
chair in the room. He had towel
tied around one of the legs of the
chair, and with handsaw he was
cutting it in half. Mrs. B. ex-
claimed:
Henry, what in the name of COM
mon sense are you doing9"
''H-s-s-h, replied the doctor, you'll
wake the patient. You hold the chic
reform to his nose while / take his
leg off. I'm about half through the
bone now" -
Then Mrs. Bones got out of bed
and shook him and pinched him I'M
til he woke. Then he exclaimed:
"Hows the patients"
Mrs. Bones merely said, Come to
bed, you idiot, and stop hacking up
the furniture.
Gracious, Maria, I" said the doctor
as he collected his scattered senses,

fracture? There's 10 guinea fee

And Bones went to bed feeling as
if he was an injured man at having
lost that money.-London Tit Bits.

When got there was pleased to
ind Chat lie rad invited four others,
all about my own age, and we had a
rare time Of We were all seated
round the fire+on night in the coy
study, when uncle told us a remin-
iscence of his schooldays, which
think is worth repeating.
He was showing lis his prizes-for
i must tell you that he had been
famous runner in his day, and had
won races from some of the most
noted sprinters of his time-when l
noticed an old silver cup, much in
ferior to the other prizes, and asked
him what it was. Then he told me
the following story:
AS you know, was educated at
Marlborough school, and in the same
town was rival school commonly
known as 'F!etchersR All the fell
lows for miles around attended these
esta blishments,. and it was pretty GER
tain that a boy who was unknown at
Marlborough was File tcherite to
the backbone Between the boys of
these seats of learning there was
keen rivalry, and if one house accom-
plished anything worthy of note, the
boys of the other did everything in
their power to excel it.
At the time / am speakin of, l was
at the head of the first class, and
this, in spite of the fact that there
were older fellows in the school, and
who, have no hesitation in saying,
were gifted with far more talent than
/ was, and could, if they had always
applied themselves, have easily left
me far behind.
Just before the Christi mas holidays,
the principal gave out a notice that
the oliver scholars hip, worth about
$500 year for three years, fell va
can't at the end of the next year, and
he added that he would be pleased to
receive the names Of any intending
councillors.
AS this exhibition was only open to
fellows under seventeen, all the older
boys in the school we're, of course,
excluded; but as I was under the pre-
scribed age, decided to enter; not
that I wanted the scholarship Or the
money, but just for the glory of the
school, and in order to prevent any
Fletcher boy from gaining the honor.
About six weeks before the .exami-
nation came off [ received letter
from my father, in which he men
toned, incidentally, that one of
Fletchers fellows, who came from
near my home, was gong in for the
oliver He also added that, although
he knew I was going in for it, he
hoped that this chap would pull it
off, as he came of pc or parents, and
if he did not get this $500 a year he
would have to give up all idea of going
to college.
r remember that laughed when l
read this and tho ught that he should
not have it if l could hel p it, but
somehow I could not get the chap out
of my head. It did not seem fair; 1T
was not like meeting him on equal
terms; had father to back me up
with money and influence, and he
had only his own industry and per-
severance to rely on.
weighed the matter over and over
in my mind, and advanced all sorts of
arguments-but it was no good, the
facts remained, and l decided to
withdraw, and leave him an open
field as far as I was concerned. When
l told the principal of my decision,

"l'm down on doctors - exclaimed
Colonel Billy Lyon. He meant it. His
tone proved the sincerity of his declara
ton and SO did the gesture by which
the declaration was accompanied.
"It was nearly month ago." said
the amiable colonel, ''that I was feel
ing very miserable. Sam Raymond
heard my daily complaints and watched
my daily decline. Billy said he at
last, you ought to see doctor. TO
blank with the doctors!' said !. But,
Billy he urged, If you have any re-
gard for me and our quarter of CEN
fury OF intimate friendship, you will
consult doctor without delay Of
course, when he put it that way, re-
Tented. He told me that DR.. Henrotin
was the doctor for me, and one morning
called at that gentleman s office.
cdr. Henrotin felt Of my pulse and
looked at my tongue and inquired about
all my symptoms. Then he made me
strip to the buff, and he went over and
around me with as much patience and
care as if had been an invalid all my
life.
"'Mr. Lyon he asked, ARE you a
hearty eater?'
"'I don't know that I am said I.
ITO be frank with you, think might
say that my appetite is fairly-only
fairly-good.'
Fairly good? Eh-yes. Well, sup
pose you tell me what constitutes an
average breakfast with you,' he sug-
gested.
"'Well, first, have some fruit, and
then some oatmeal and cream says I,
'and then chop with bacon, and three
boiled eggs and fried potato, with per-
haps buttered toast or mullins or hot
biscuit. I wind up generally with a
plate Of cakes and maple sirup.'
"'Ah, indeed! And what do you
have for luncheon?' he asked.
"'I go pretty light on luncheon, said
I. MY custom is to take consomme,
a bit Of fish, bird, salad and light
dessert-the whole washed down with
a bottle Of light wine Of some kind or
another.
"'And for dinner:' he asked.
For dinner said I, my menu is

for the meal by caviare sandwich and

riably take dozen on the half shell, a

ed by the conventional courses Of roasts,

moments. He looked thoughtful and
anxious. I really began to feel quite
alarmed.
