those houses that advertise homo com.
forts and \ motherly landlady, which
generally means that she is person
who will pry into ones private affairs
and read long letters left lying about
This particular landlady happens to re-
gard drinking and smoking as particu-
lar devices Of the devil, so when my
friend began to praise a new brand Of
tobacco ut the dinner table the other
night she saw her chance and promptly
Clipped into the conversation.
Smoking makes men utterly selfish, "
she said, as starter, enunciating her
words as if she were saving ice into
symmetrical blocks.
Ny friend was dazed for q moment,
for no had not much experience with
people who denouncc everything as
wrong which they do not personally
fancy. but he quickly recovered and an.
swered: Possibly so, but after all it's
stand OF, for abstinence from smoking
seems to make people deucedly impolite.
Or possibly you indulge little? So
many of the ladies enjoy their cigarettes
nowadays"

When there Is q choice Of roads to n.

the shortest which should be chosen.
The desire for money is o legitimate
one. for money is the key which unlocks
many opportunities. But tho ways
which men take TO acquire il are too
numerous to recount and OTTER with
every difference Of character. There are
men who firmly resolve to obtain wealth

getting hold Of tne driver one day, they
inquired if he knew who his fare was,
when he told them he did not. The stu
dents informed him that he was one Of
tho most famous and eccentric writers
Of the day, and, giving him book, ad-
vised him to appear to be reading il
whenever Carlyle approached the stand.
Cabhy, without any suspicion. acted
on their advice, and when the old sage

Perfectly sure" said the jchu conf

something in praise of the book, he
added, why, sir, it's almost as good
as The Newgate Calendar" p.
The grim old Dumfricsian glared at
him, granted out something, turned alb
rupt,y around and engaged the next
cab. From that day CARLYLE never looked
at him, but stuck to the second man,

A writer on lion hunting tells how
Hassau, a quick wittcd Somali. found
his way out Of q very serious difficulty.
He had been down in the waterless
plains and was on the way home, driv.
ing some camels before him. 1t was q
very dry year, and, although this was
tho rainy season, he had been unable 10
find any water to give his pony.
The result was that, having been rid.
den hard for two or three days, with Lit.
tie or no water to drink. the pony sue.
cumbed entirely and ut last lay down
about 90 miles from the wells. No
amount Of persuasion, or even beating,
would get the creature on its legs again.
Hassan was in despair. He knew that
there were no vessels ut the wells in
which he might carry water back to
the pony, and it seemed to him % il
nothing could be done to save it. At
last he thought Of plan. He drove the
camels ut top speed to the wells. gave
them as much water a they could
drink and then hurried them ON again.
He found the pony where he had left
It. growing rapidly weaker. He imme.
diately killed the camels, cut them open
and took the water from their stomachs
The pony was eager enough to drink it.
and after the draft it revived sum.
ciently to struggle on to the wells.
In o few days it had completely re.
covered. In telling the story Hassan
always added that he could get plenty
Of camels, and whether that were 70 on
not he would rather have cut the
threats Of 100 than sacrifice his beloved
