Garter Superstitions.

A worn garter is regarded by some
people as quite Il valuable present, for
it brings to its new wearer luck, or, at
any rate, is supposed to do so.
A bride should always wear a blue
silk garter at her wedding. Her garter
Is often given her by a friend who
has taken away it's newness by wear
ing it a few times, says Home Notes.
The wearing of the garter does not end
the ritual concerning it. After the
wedding ceremony it is either cut into
pieces or hidden. When it is hidden.
the bridesmaids hunt for it, and the
finder is assured of being happily mar
ried before the year is out. When it is
cut, it is divided among the brides
maids to give to each good luck and a
devoted husband. Sometimes the bride
bestows her garters on the first brides
maid, and in Germany each bridesmaid
receives a pair of blue white silk gar
ters from the bride.

Won by His Wit.

A story is told of an English clergy
man who owed his appointment to
rich living to lucky pun. lie was
tutor to the son of a nobleman and
had not long taken orders when he
attended the funeral of the rector of
the parish in which the nobleman's
seat was situated.
The father of his pupil was patron of
the living and was also present at the
funeral of the deceased rector. There
was Il young clergyman present also
whose grief was so demOnstrative that
the noble patron was much affected by
the sight and asked if the young man
was son of the deceased gentleman.
"Oh, dear, no, my lOrd-nO relation at
ALL" said the tutor.
mo relatiOnw exclaimed the noble
man in a surprised tone.
"NonP, my lord; he is the curate, and
think he is not weeping for the dead,
but for the living"
His lcrdship, who was something of
a wit and Il cynic himself, was so de-
lighted with the bonmOt that he con-
ferred the living upon the ready pun

Origin of "n Horn"

A western man at a fashionable bar
in New York called for a horn and
then had to tell the drink mixer that
it was whisky he wanted before he got
his order filled.

er, chow people in the east can't under

in Kentucky knows what IA horn is

a bystander.
"Well, along about 100 years ago the
first distillery ever established in Ten
nessee was set up in Davidson county.
1t was called the Red IIeifer, and the
customers who assembled at the STILL

speaking of a dram as a horn of the

Brotau,.IIness In Brockton.

Here is story told by Professor Bar
rett Wendell about DR.. William Ever
EFT: The latter was going out to
Brocktor one night to deliver an adj
dress and ran across Mr.. Wendell in
the Old Park square station. "Come
along, Wendell" he said. Il am going
out to BrOcktOn to speak. and | want
some one respectable to sit on the plat
form with me-" So the professor went
along.
When Everett arose to speak, the
hall, which was a large one, was only
passably well filled, and even the COM
paratively small number present began
to grow smaller as one by one people
slipped away. Mr.. Wendell began to
think that BrOcktOn must be Il singu-
larly cold hearted place when sudden
ly he noticed people coming in by twos
and threes and silently taking seats
wherever they could find them. Soon
the hall was full. with standing room
only, but still they came till the aisles
and walls were lined with interested
listeners.
The supposed dcsPrters had simply
gone out and told the people of Brock

answered proudly:
Having been three times solicited
by my fellow citizens to accept the

The Fishing otter.

The otter used by Scottish poachers
is one of the most deadly fishing instru-
ments known. In some waters is is far
more effective than a net. 1t may be
described as a water kite, which serves
to take out over the water a line bear
ing so or more flies. The otter itself is
a floating piece Of board loaded along
one edge to keep it upright. The pOach-
er walks along the side of loch or river,
letting out the fly decorated line as he
goes, the otter board gradually working
out toward the center. An enormous
area of water is fished at one time and
numbers of fish are killed.

Sicily n NaturnI Garden.

The natural fertility of Sicily is in
deed remarkable. Without the use of
fertilizers three different growths-
olives, vines and wheat-fourish in
close proximity, writes a correspondent
in the New York Post. Great sections
already artificlally watered are among
the garden spots of the world. The
"Piano del Cappucinni' at Trapani, on
the western shore, the far famed
"Conca rOro." near Palermo and the
eastern coast north of Catania are sec
tions which surpass in fertility the fa-
vored valleys of Tuscany. Already
100000 orange trees, or two-thirds
of the total number grown in Italy,
flourish on the island. while cotton and
linseed, the almond, the olive. the
carob and the mandarin are extensively
raised.

How They Do In China.

In China liquids are sold by weight
and grain by measure. John buys
soup by the pound and cloth by the

outside of his shop. but paints instead
motto or a list of his goods on his
vertical signboard. Some reassuring
remark is frequently added, such as
lone word hail." "A child two feet
high would not be cheated" Every
single article has to be bargained for,
and it is usual for the customer to
take his own measure and scales with
him.
When you engage a servant or make

Gus in some matters, yet, to do him

''It is not always because a cigar is
