KNOWLEDGE ENOUGH.
Although She Was from Boston She
Cared Not for a Higher Sub
Ject Than Beans.

Notwithstanding her nose turned up, there
were specs on 1t, and she was from Boston,
which may be considered to be competent
testimony that heredity isn't everything
She was visiting in Brooklyn before the hot
spell and the first young man she met was
one who prides himself on his intellectuals
Whether anyone else does or not is another
story. AS it happened, the young man had
an opportunity shortly after the meeting
to talk with the young woman alone, and he
did not fail to throw few brains at her.
"Ah, Miss Sophia" he said, with a soulful
yearn in his gentle voice, Il presume you at
tend several Of the numerous schools of phil
osophy in whial Boston is so rich and Brook
lyn is so poor?

None whatever. fear" and she really
seemed to be sorry to have been so careless
OF her golden, glorious opportunities.
And does not the subjective idealism of
existence in delightful Boston profoundly
affect the reality of your Ego?"
so far have not observed that it did, !"
she said, apologetically.
How can it be possible?" he exclaimed.
The sphere of your knowledge must be far

No, she answered, measuring her words

THE APPARENT REASON.
She Readily Accounted for the Con-
slant Wearing of the
HalOs.

Dotty sat on a stool beside her mother
looking at the pictures in an old church
book. There were angels and cherubim
and harplsts galore, and in them the child
found much to interest her. The last pic
ture in the book was of dozen or more
angels floating on the clouds. Above the
head of each shone the symbolic halo. Those
halos bothered Dotty. She had never seen
such head dress and she was perpexed.
After minutes thought she held the book
up to her mother and said: "See, mamma,
the ladies what's got wings and funny things
on their heads"
dear" she said.
and what's the funny rings on their
heads, mammal" the child asked
Those are halos, Dotty."
Does they wear them always, mamma :?
Does all angels wear them?"
Eyes, Dotty. All angels wear them and
they wear them all the time"
When they's in the house,"
"Yes, Dotty"
When they's asleep"
Eyes"
Il guess they wears their halos all the
time, mamma, cause they're afraid if they
took 'em off and hung 'em on the hat rack
they'd get broke, don't hey?"-Detroit Free

tumbling to the deck; but the mainsail
the schooner canted over the boom had
swung out-board and the cap of it and
foot or two of sail hung even under
water. l thought this made it still more
dangerous; yet the strain was so heavy
that | half feared to meddle. At last
| got my knife and cut the halyardy.
The peak dropped instantly, a great
belly of loose canvas hoated broad upon
the water, and since, pull as / liked,
could not bulge the downhaul, that
was the extent of what | could accom-
plish For the rest, the ''Hispaniola'
must trust to luck, like myself.
BY this time the whole anchorage had
fallen into shadow-the last rays, re-
member, falling through a glade of the
wood and shining, bright as jewels, on
the flowery mantle of the wreck. 1t
began to be chill, the tide was rapidly
fleeting seaward, the schooner settling
more and more on her beam-ends.
/ scrambled forward and looked over.
1t seemed shallow enough and, holding
the cut hawser in both hands for a last
security, let myself drop softly over
board. The water scarcely reached my
waist, the sand was firm and covered
with ripple marks, and waded ashore
in great spirits, leaving the "Hispani-
ola" on her side, with her Eainsail trail
ing wide upon the surface of the bay
About the same time the sun went fair

the dusk among the tossing pines.
At least, and at last, | was off the
sea, nor had l returned thence empty
handed. There lay the schooner, clear
at last from buccaneers and ready for
our own men to board and get to sea
again. l had nothing nearer my fancy
than to get home to the stockade and
boast of my achievements. Possibly
might be blamed bit for my truantry
but the recapture of the "Hispaniola'
was a clinching answer, and l hoped
that even Capt. Smollett would con.
fess I had not lost my time.
So thinking, and in famous spirits.
began to set my face homeward for the
block-house and my companions. Ire

rivers which drain into Capt. Kidd's
anchorage ran from the two-peaked hill
upon my left, and | bent my course

A Farmcr's Repartee.

A story Is told of Rutherford B.
Hayes that while attending school at
Kenyon college he was in the habit of
taking daily walks in the country.
These trips were shared by two inti-
mate companions who were of fun
loving disposition, which frequently
got them into trouble. On one occa-
sion they more than met their match
in repartee in an old farmer whom
they met on the highway. The long
white beard of the farmer gave him
patriarchial appearance. and while he
was approaching the students they
arranged to give him a "jollying,"
which eventually terminated in the
discontinue of the youths. One Of
them doffed his hat with great respect
as he said: Good morning, Father
Abraham" The second saluted the
farmer saying: Good morning. Father
Isaac" Hayes, not to be outdone in
politeness, extended his hand as he
said: Good morning, Father Jacob"
Ignoring the outstretched hand Of
Hayes the farmer replied: Gentle
men, you are mistaken in the man. I
am neither Abraham. Isaac nor Jacob,
but Saul, the son of Kish, who was
sent ont to seek his fathers asses,
and 10! | have found them."-Detroit
