PROVERBS OF PRIDE.
.aooCk, look at your legs!

Peacock look at your legs
Pride is the sworn enemy of content
Pride may lurk under threadbare coat
The nobler the blood, the less the pride.
proud look makes foul work of fair
face.
You gazed at the moon and fell into the
gutter.
1t is good pride to desire co be the best
of men
Pride leaves home on horseback but re-
turns on foot.
proud pauper and a rich miser are
contemplate beings
man may have a just esteem of him
self without being proud
Pride sleeps in gilded crown, content
ment in cotton nightcap.
Pride goeth before destruction and a
naughty spirit before fall.
And the devil did grin, for his darling
sin is pride that apes humility,
A little dog, a COW without horns and
a little man are generally proud
He who is puffed up with the first gale
Of prosperity will bend beneath the first
blast Of adversely.
The pride that holds its head high rarely
picks up anything, whereas modesty, like
a diver, gathers pearls by keeping his head
low

Orator O'ROnrke's Kick.

Jim O'Rourke, the famous "orator,
when i'll the League as Il member of the
New York baseball team never had the
reputation of being kicker, but upon
one occasion he made protest that
will always he remembered by players
who were ON the team with him. In

ers Jim hit ball over the fence. 1t
was foul by about foot, but Jeems,
thinking it was homo run, began to
tear around the bases like a runaway
horse. When he reached the plate in
breathless state, yet wearing look of
triumph on his classic countenance,
O'Rourke learned to his discontinue
that the umpire had called the ball
foul.
"Why, Philly," exclaimed Jim in
the mildest Of tones, "that wasn't
FOUL"
Yes, Jimmy, I'm sorry to say i,
was" said Powers, with assurance.
why, Phil" remarked Jim rather
seriously, sit was five feet fair
"Oh, no, it wasn't, Jim. 1t was
dead FOUL" explained the umpire
why, Mr.. PowersW protested the
orator, growing slightly warm under
the collar, 81 am conversant with the
oonglomeration of facts in this case,
and as my optical eyesight is of extreme
excellence am positive of your misin-
formation
This was n staegrre, for Powers, but
he struggled gamcly with this reply:
MIR. O'Rourke, you're not entitle;,
to home run. You must bat over
again.
"See here, Powers" calculated the
now thoroughly excited player, "I'll
not allow you to rob me in this matter. "
'See here, O'Rourke, retorted Pow
ers, ''if you give me any more talk I'll
have to fine you" Then O'Rourke
found solace in burst of eloquence
which sounded something like this:
why, you miserable, groveling,
sycophantic, phosphorescent, unconsti-
tutional viper. I've half mind to ex-
communicate, extradite, separate, eluci-
date, prevaricate and eject you from
this beautiful ball ground and this &C.
centric National league"
Powers was by this time tempted to
reverse his decision, but Q Rourke, who
was too quick for him, went out on a
fly ball. New York Sun.

How to Use BIOtting Paper.

1T is curious about blotting paper, "
said Mr. Dipperton, that it lasts Ion
ger if used on one side only. refer
now to the small piece of blotting paper
that we pick up and press upon the
freshly written lines by rubbing it with
the finger tips, Continual rubbing
makes the side that is rubbed upon
smooth and oily and less absorbent If
we turn the blotter over now and then
and get a fresh surface and rub indiffer-
emily on either side, we soon get both
sides more or less oily, and then it
doesn't blot perfectly ON either side 1t
is better to use it always the same side
down, so that whatever moisture may
be transferred from the finger tips is
kept all on one side. Thus used, the blot
ter will take up ink more satisfactorily
and for longer time than it would il
we kept turning it over "-Atlanta

MATCHES.

Wax matches are employed in Europe
to an extent vastly greater than in this
country.
An average Of eight matches for each
man, woman and child is used in the
United States daily.
The body of wax match is made by
drawing cotton strands, 90 or 80 a time,
through melted stearin.
1t costs more to strike match in France
than in any other civilized country, be-
cause the business is monopolized by the
government.
Sweden is the greatest match producing
country In the world, although the indus

the United States and elsewhere.
