would Have Done the Same.

Rudyard Kipling undoubtedly got his
wit from his maternal grandfather. the
Rev. George B. Macdonald, a Wesleyan
clergyman. 1t is related Of this bright
Macdonald that in the days when he
was counting the lady whom he after
ward married the father-in-law to be-
an aged Methodist with extremely strict
notions in regard to the proprieties-
was injudicious enough on one occasion
to enter the parlor without giving any
warning of his approach. The conse-
quence was that he found the sweet
hearts occupying single chair.
Deeply shocked by this spectacle the
cid man sclemnly said: ''Mr. Macdon-
aid, when was counting Mrs. Brown
she sat on one side of the room and
on the other !"
Macdonald sreply was: "That' g what
I should have done if l had been court

Famous House and Lot.

An article entitled Historic Homes
In Washington, by Catherine Cava.
nagh, in Munsey's, gives an interesting
narrative Of the home once occupied by
James G. Blaine The lot on which il
stood once belonged to Henry Clay, who
won it at game of cards, at which he
was always very lucky. On his wife be-
ing asked If her husbands gambling
did not make her anxious, she an
swered: 'Why should worry? Henry
generally wins. After keeping the lot
a short time he snapped it for Nal
tese jackass that Commodore Rodgers
brought home from a Mediterranean
cruise. He built the house. In it once
lived James x. Paulding, secretary Of
the navy under Van Buren,. Secretary
Seward bought 1t, and was living in il
when his assassination on the night OF
Lincolns murder was attempted. Sec
rotary Of War Belknap afterward re-
sided there, and finally Mr.. Blaine.

In the Cathedral Of Nantes, France,
there is monument to Francis III Of
Bretagne and his wife Margaret which
is considered one of the masterpieces of
French sculpture. 1t is over 800 years
old. and until twenty odd years ago no
one knew to whom to ascribe it. Then
by chance an old stone slab was discov-
cred in the same cathedral bearing the
following inscription:
81, Michel Colomb, was a poor for
saken boy whose only home was the
high road, where alone God and our
Bretagne saints watched over me. / Of
ten forgot to eat and drink while look
ing at the stonecutters who made the
beautiful stone crosses for the holy
place in the diocese of Leon, and my
self carved small images with wretch
ed knife, when worthy priests took
compassion upon me, fed me and said
to me: Work, thou little one, and look
as much as thou pleasest at the carved
belfry and at the beautiful work of the
guild (sculptors). Look at all this, love
the good God, the mild Saviour and the
blessed Virgin Mary. Then thy name
shall be honored in the diocese of Leon
and in the beautiful Bretagne. This I
did for long while that I might be-
come good workman, and then our
Duchess Anna gave me an order to cut
a monument to our gracious Duke
Francis II and the Duchess Margaret. "
