A Rather Rough Experience That Taught
 an Artist a Lesson.

4 Rather Rough Experience That Taught
 Artist Lesson.
 An artist who is we'll known in northern city used occasionally to put on his shabbiest clothes and penetrate to the slums ill search of inspiration for his brush. On one of these excursions he stopped to watch the efforts of rag ged urchin who was disfguring the pavement of a squalid street with a piece of soft blue stone, and, although the figures which the lad drew were grotesque, the artist was struck with their originality and began to take an interest in their development.
 That's right, my boy Make your lines clear and never mind the details. Championl What You don It know how to sketch that old mans head? Then give me the chalk. I'll show you. ?
 The next moment the enthusiastic artist was en his knees, and with the piece of stone had quickly drawn Q clever picture Before he could com, mence another sketch, however, he felt stunning blow on the head, and a shrill female voice cried:
 'Take yer bloomin hook, ye great, good for nought hulk What I've mean by messin up t'fags at I've just wash ed? Tain t no wonder at t kids do it when a senseless old idiot like yerself sets 'em t'example. Be off, or I'll SCOUT tpavement wi yer ugly carcass.
 The artist hurriedly lodged another boot sprang to his feet, and, without waiting to argue the matter, sneaked ignominiously off. He VOWS that he will mind his own business when next he goes stunning. London Telegraph.

THAT FAMILY CLOSET.
And the Various Kinds of Skeletons That
 Abide Therein.

Every family has its skeleton. We know that, of course, anatomical speei- mems, neatly put together and stored away in secure cupboard, of which only family members have the key-a skeleton key, probably. Only when the family is alone, with no visitors about, does it go to the door cautiously and unlock it and bring the bony occupant forth. The family knows it's own skele- ton, but outsiders are supposed to be in total ignorance of its existence, and if they are wiser than people think them and of course they always are--it is only point of politeness to pretend to be blind and deaf.
 Of how many kinds are family skele- tons? The Joneses possessed an uncle who died insane. You can't go near the Jones cupboard. or, in other words, even hint at the subject of hereditary insanity in their presence, without the skeleton audibly knocking its bones to- gether and all the Joneses turning pale. You can t mention Turkish bonds to the Browns without their jaws suddenly falling you can t think why. And when drink statistics form the cheerful sub ject of conversation at the Robinsons' table you observe with wonder that all the family grow uncomfortable and writhe in their chairs You haven't the faintest notion why, but the skeleton has,
 met a man once at dinner party who was perfectly sane upon every S,nitl+ oarfl, N,,f md AIak 1a was the opposite. He could talk about politics, science, art, Shakespeare and the musical glasses, but if by any chance the conversation touched on dueling he went straight off his head then and there.
 Dueling was the skeleton in his cup. board, and the reason was one that can not be enlarged upon here. On one day ill every year he shut himself up in his house and was not seen by mortal eye. That was the one day when his skele- ton came out and stalked about.
 Many people have what seems to the general public harmless enough skele- ton, but it is real and ghastly to them- selves. 1t is of humble origin. It is sur prising the pains people will take to conceal that their grandfathers were poor, but honest, the lies they will tell (which only proves that the grandpar- ent's qualities have not descended in the direct line) and the meannesses they will indulge in, i'll the pitiable effort to hide the fact that two generations ago they kept small greengrocer's shop or wore plush and powder After all the longer the line the more certain it is to contain ancestors who won their bread by the sweat of tbeir face.
 If all the world were not descended from the same grand old gardener, :, there might be mora common sense in trying to forget honest toil.-English Exchange.

Miss Caroline Hamilton Pier was married to John Henry Roemer at Mil waukee recently. Not only are bride and groom lawyers, but the ceremony was performed by the brides mother in her capacity as court commissioner, and the two sisters of the bride, who served as bridesmaids, are also lawyers. The bride herself was graduated from the Wisconsin Law school in 1891 and has praeticed with her two sisters since that time. The mother, who was the elder member of the firm, has been practi- tioner since 1889, and the father. Colo nel Colwert K. Pier. who died in 1S95, was also member of the bar.

4 GREAT ADVOCATE.
Good Stories of George Wood, Lawyss
 of Many Years Ago.

There are still some members of the New York bar who remember George Wood, the contemporary of Daniel Lord, Ogden Hoffman, William Kent, James T. Brady and other distinguish. ed lawyers of many years ago. The ven- erable Benjamin D. Silliman has de- scribed George Wood as being conspic. uous for his great learning, his wonder ful power i'll stating his cases and his mathematical power in argument. He was great advocate. Frederic R. Cou- dert some time ago told the following story of MT. Wood: ''I can remember, looking back to early boyhood, that yen- erable figure and recall speaking to one of his contemporaries about him. The person to whom l spoke said, Yes, a client of mine got an opinion from George Wood once. Well, I said, how was it done, how much did he charger for even in those early days the professional instinct asserted itself. I will tell you, my friend replied. My client went to him and said, "Mr. Wood, would like to have your opin- ion on these papers. , "Give me the pa-
 
 pers and come back tomorrow, said the great lawyer. The papers were produced and the client departed. The next day he presented himself before MT. Wood, and the latter said, Fifty dollars, :" and nothing more. The client was in- telligent and assumed that he should pay him that sum, which he did. After waiting awhile he asked, "What about my papers, MT. Wood?'' tThey are not worth d-n,' replied MT. Wood, and be made no further comment on the case.
 David Dudley Field used to relate the following: George Wood was the personifcation of logic and cold as marble. I was sitting beside him in court one day when he arose to argue case, and as he arose his eoattails caught the back of the chair and hung over it. Wood stood up and spoke, I should think, for fully two hours, but never once did those eoattails move.
 "On one occasion a young lawyer who had engaged George Wood to try 8 case was asked, How did the judge charge the jury? .Oh, George Wood charged the jury. was the reply. "- New York Times.

NUTTREES.
Plant the Nuts, and the Trees Will Grow.
 After Awhile.

Plant the Nuts, and the Trees Will Grow
 After Awhile.
 The age at which any nut trees come into bearing depends on the care given to the trees Some authorities state that 15 or 20 years are necessary to bring them into full bearing from the time the nut is planted. This is a mistake, as trees that have been we'll cared for should bear a bushel of nuts in ten years, and the quantity will increase rapidly each year after that time.
 Some persons may enjoy raising these trees from seed. To be sure it is rather a sllw process, but it is interesting work When planting the nuts, if they have thin shells be perfectly sure that they have not dried out at all. The best plan is to get them as soon as they ripen and plant them at once. When this is not possible, keep them in moist sand or in sawdust until they can be started. Butternuts, walnuts, hickory nuts and filberts, being hard shelled, will keep in growing condition much longer, but should be planted i'll the fall, as they germinate better when allowed to freeze as that cracks the shell.
 The fall planting is nature's own plan, and the nearer we follow her ways the better results we may expect An other thing, do not plant the nuts deep Nature drops them on the surface and gives them a thick covering of leaves in which the dirt catches as it blows about, then the SHOW covers all and helps the leaves to decay and form covering of leaf mold for the tree to grow in.
 It is not practicable for any of us to try to raise all these kinds of nuts, but select the ones most likely to succeed in our climate, and by proper care and at- tention make a success of it. We may not reap the benefit of our labors, but our children will and theirs after them. -Viok's Magazine.
