Easily Managed.

House Hunter-But are you sure that
the cellar is perfectly dry:
Real Estate Dealer-Oh, you may be
sure of that, Never was a drop of wa
ter ever seen in it, even in the wettest
kind of weather.
House Hunter-Sorry about that. Do
you know l have a theory that a damp
cellar is the healthiest thing in the
world. In my opinion the water in a
cellar absorbs nOxiOus gases, and, be-
sides, it so moistens the whole atmos-
phere OF the house as to make it more
grateful TO the lungs.
Real Estate Dealer-Come to think
Of II, IL was that other house on the
other side OF the street that has the
dry cellar. The cellar in this house is
never free from water. Really, sir, l
think it VIII suit you immensely.-Bos-

Venice without Water.

Venice without water would hardly
be Venice at all. but we are assured
there Is n possibility that the pictur-
esque Venice of today may become a
city of the past, and eventually Venice
may be waterless.
According TO Professor Marinelli, the
regular increase in the delta of the
river Pc is such that in process Of
time the northern Adriatic will he dry.
and Venice will no more be upon the
sea. The annual surveys show that
the mean annual increase of the delta
during 40 years has been thrcc-tenths
Of a square mile.
An encroachment upon the sea Of
three-tenths of a mile in n year means
a large increase in n century. 1t ap-
pears that the total increase in six
centuries has been about 1913 square
miles. The Increase is continuing. and
the gulf OF Venice Is doomed TO dis
appear.
No immediate alarm need be felt. and
II will not be necessary to hurry on
TO Venice to take a farewell look at
the city in its present picturesQueness.
Professor MarineIIi calculates that be-
tween 100 and 100 centuries will elapse
before the entire northern Adriatic will
have become dry land-Youth's Com
panion.

That New York is Il big city which
the stranger seldom learns very well
was quite forcibly impressed upon a
certain we'll known Californian a few
days ago. He visits New York twice a
year and has long since learned to find
his way about.
He was charging about in the bust
ness district and suddenly remembered
that he wanted to telegraph to n friend
whose offices are at 1915 Broadway
The Californian dashed into the near
est telegraph office, wrote out his dis
patch and, covering it with the coin,
passed it through the wicket to the
receiver. The receiver smiled.
What is the matter?" demanded the
Californian.
why. this is 195 Broadway" said
the receiver, land your man is up just
one flight of stairs"
There was a confused period that
lasted about n second and when the
Californian got his nerve back he calm
ly said: 81 know that. Let it go any
way. I guess l can telegraph across
the room or this counter If l want to
and have the money. We do that thing
out i'm California every day for a joke"
The receiver may have been bluffed,
but as receivers go they are hard TO
impress.-San Francisco Chronicle.

How Lincoln Won His Wife.

Mr.. Lincoln used to take great de-
light in telling how he gained a knife
by his ugly looks. That has been pub
lished, but l have not seen another in
print telling how he gained his wife.
Mrs. Lincoln was a beautiful lad. at
tractive, sharp, witty and relished a
joke even at her own expense. She
was staying with her sister, Mrs. Ed
wards. She had not been there long
before everybody knew Miss Mary
Todd. She often said: when girl, 1
thought 1 would not marry until L
could get one of the handsomest men
IN the country. but since L became a
woman l learned l can't get such n
man, which has caused me to change
my mind. l have concluded now to
marry the ugliest looking man 1 can
find"
Later on Lincoln came to town. She
had never seen him before she met
him on the street. She was told who
he was and went home and told her
sister she had seen her man, 1.-The ugli-
est man 1 ever saw, Abraham Lin
coin, and I am going to set my cap for
him.
That became a common saying in
street gossip. When they We're mar
ried, instead Of taking a bridal trip,
they went to the Globe hotel, owned by
the writer and occupied by a tenant.
They took board at 81 a week. When
he got able. he bought a lot for $500
and built a four room house costing
less than $1,000. When he received
1000 from his great railroad case, he
spent 81, 800 Of 1t in putting n second
story on his house, and there he lived
until he went to Washington.-Thom
Lewis in Leslie's Weekly.
