Gaping Verses.


On going into the rooms of one of his
friends, who was absent. DR.. Mansel saw
on the table the opening lines Of q poem
In the following lofty style:

DR.. Watson, regius professor of divinity,
had at n time been tutor Of Trinity,
and when he was made bishop of Llandaff,
IN honest publican in Cambridge, who
kept an inn called the "Bishop Blaise,"
out of respect to DR.. Watson, changed his
sign and replaced the head of Bishop
Blaise by that of Bishop Watson. This
transfer drew from Mansel, who probably
had some grudge against the late tutor,
the following epigram:

La Grippe Successfully Treated.

Mr.. Jas. a. Jones, publisher of the
Leader, MeXia, Texas. "In the latter
case | used Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy, and I think with considerable
success, only being in bed IL little over
two days against ten days for the former
attack. The second attack I am salts

the first but for the use of this remedy

first case l was able to attend to bust

To Cure Creaky shoes.

Cheap shoes are not necessarily Of poor
material" said q shoe store clerk.
"Creaking often ocounts for the low
price. Cheap double soled shoes nearly
always oreak, and the reason is that the
two soles do not quite fit or one is of more
pliable material than the other, so that
they rub against each other. Among the
remedies usually tried is soaking the shoe
IN water or oil. This is effective for q
time, u the cure is only temporary. The
oreak invariably returns in q. few days.
However, there is' one certain and simple
remedy. 1t Is to drive three little wooden
pegs into the sole. The pegs prevent the
friction OF the soles. Any cobbler will, do
IL for you for 10 cents, and SO not only re.
store your own peace Of mind, but also

BRIGHT MOMENT IN A BOYS LIFE.

Amply Repaid by n Smile For His
Own Kindness.
Two girls attired in their matinee cos.
tunes were hurrying eastward for their
q They were both under one umbrella
and were talking eagerly and both at
once One Of them in pulling her hand
kerchief from her shopping bag tunlbled
0 big square letter out on to the muddy
pavement. She did not notice her loss,
but a small newsboy did. He was selling
q paper at the time, but he left his Gus
toner Instantly, swooped down on the let
ter and scampered at the top of his speed
after the girls.
Hi, LADY," he called. "Youse dropped
%somethin."
:. Tho girl in the dark blue costume who
carried the shopping bag turned, and the
boy held out the letter, but suddenly, no
ticing that 1t was muddy, he drew 1t quick.
ly back and wiped 1t carefully on the in
side of his ragged little jacket, then he let
the girl have it.
If the man who wrote the bold super
scription on tho muddy envelope ever got
a sweoter smile from the girl in blue than
she bestowed on the little newsboy, he is
to be envied.
"Thank you, very much,'' she said.
"1'm very, very much obliged to you"
The boy grinned broadly and sheepishly
made a fumbling attempt on the peak Of
his cap and backed off until he collided
with another youngster who had been
looking cynically on.
"Tryin to make a mashP'' asked the
cynic between puffs of q cigarette end.
"Doin the dood actp How much did she
give yer, BrasseyP''
Brassey made no reply for a moment.
He was looking after the girls, who had
nearly reached the street corner, and he
had n remnant of tho grin still lingering
about his dirty face. At tho corner the
girl i'll blue turned, nodded md waved
her hand, and Brassey waved a paper back
at her. When she and her companion got
into their car, Brassey turned to his ciga-
rette smoking colleague.
Didn't give me nawthin," he said.
"What'd she give me anythin fer?"
The cynic snorted. "Gec, you're a dead
one!" he remarked. you'd ought o.

you'd worked it right"
Brasscy looked at him with sovereign
contempt. YOU'RE q cheap skate, Z" he

In the Austrian Alps tho local dialects
20 vary as { o be unintelligible from n
district to another and yet have been Gull
tivated in passion plays and popular
poetry. Over and above these dialects are
ENTHUSIASTICALLY In lower Austria, but
oven round Vienna-Slav colonies, Czechs,

Czechs claim to be $50, 600. Slovenians
spread over three row lands-Styria,
Carinthia and Carniola-and dominate In
the last, which contains also Uscoks, Ro-
man Catholic Serbs; but the Slovenians
seem to be retreating before the Germans.
OF these a remarkable group occurs in
the barren Gottschoe country, southeast OF
Laybaoh, only inhabited since the four
teenth century. Here again we find q
yet rich in tales and poetry. Strange to
say, the %reawakoning of the Slovenian
race in the course of the last hundred
years seems to have been determined by
the first Napoleon, who replaced German

Illyrian provinces (six In number) by

THE HUMAN VOICE.
It's Quality Depends Upon How the
breath Is Managed.

It's Quality Depends Upon How the
Breath Is Managed.
Tho voice is produced by various organs,
which have functions of life tt, discharge
before and above speaking. These are
the lungs, tho windpipe, the throat and
the mouth. The lungs are the bellows of
this wonderful organ, viewed ms a wind
instrument. For It is both q wind, q
string and q reed instrument. It is of the
nature of all the sounding instruments
and is superior to each of them. We live
by breathing, and we must breathe wisely
to speak we'll. Speaking is a use of the
lungs which human beings have found
out.
The breathing to live is of the same ma.
ture as the function of the eye or the ear.
The breathing to speak has to be learned
If speaking is to be done we'll. To man.
age tho breath properly is the first re-
quircment of the art of speaking. To
compress and condense the air in the lungs
and then to force it straight at the vocal
organ in tho throat Is to manage the
breath properly. It is an artificial process.
There is deep breathing, called diaphrag-
matte or abdominal breathing; there Is
broad or wide breathing, called rib breath
ing, n there Is shallow breathing, called
COLLAR bone breathing. The full explana-
tion of breathing must be left for the in
structor. Suffice 1t to say that deep
breathing is the only possible breathing
for the true use Of the voice. Sound must
come without breath. Breath coming with
the sound exhausts itself too soon, and IL
makes the sound harsh. You have only
to try it to become conscious how the tone
Is affected by it.
Mr.. Sandlands tells us Of a very good
hint he got on this point. Hold a lighted
candle before your mouth while you are
giving forth the sound. II the flame
fickers, there is breath with the sound.
The flame will not flicker IL there Is only
sound.-Chambers' journal.

ANCIENT FEAsTs.
Much GluttonyA Among the Old Greeks
and PcrAinns.

Enormous fcasts wero spread at the
Persian and other Asiatic courts, and the
great Grecian conqueror of those regions
was once or twice in his dazzling career
more lavish than even the successor of
Caesar. But it was not u regular habit
with him, nor was reckless prodigality
ever a vice of his nation. OF course there
were exceptions, and that societies devoted
to luxurious living existed in Athens we
know from the works of Archestratus and
Atheneus, who wrote long poems to the
glory of cookery. Tho Hellenic epicures
were ingenious and often fantastic in their
ideas, but were not, as o rule, guilty of
gross extravaganza. They were fond Of
such conceits as having u whole pig served,
one side roasted and tho other boiled and
stuffed with a great variety of delicacies,
although the animal had never been cut
or separated in any way. Their cooks
were also skillful In preparing vegetables
to taste like meat.
A certain king had an Intense longing
for a fish called an "aphy," at a time
when he was so far away from the seq
that he did not suppose his desire could
possibly be gratitled, but his cook made
him an artificial "aphy'' out Of a turnip and
disguised it SO cleverly by sauces that the
was completely deceived. Occa-
s%ionally we hear of voracious gluttons
among the old Greeks. One of the most
noted was Philoxenus, who wished he had
a neck like o crane, SO that his enjoyment
of what he swallowed could be heightened
by several inches. This selfish fellow used
to keep his throat in training by gargling
1t with scalding water. Then he bribed
the cooke, wherever he. went, to send in all
the meals furiously hot; thus he finished
the best there was Of each dish before any
one else dared to touch a morsel. A fell
low guest was once so offended at this that
he refused to remain at the table of Phi.
loxenus, saying he had been invited to dine
with q man and not with an oven.-E. II.

board markets on to-day's level of
values 1t is limited that if the mar
kets abroad continue firm a consider
able amount of the new clip may be
taken for export; that is, If domestic
consumers do not come up to the price
