In the Two Cases.
"Papa," asked the little boy, edo you
remember the first money you ever
earned?"
Yes" said papa. at was a nice,
new, shiny > cent piece that old Mr..
Gregg. the grocer, gave me for doing
about a quarters worth of work in car
lying a load Of potatoes into his cellar.
l worked all Saturday afternoon to
earn that nickel and when he paid me
ran three blocks home, tired as l was,
to show it"
"And did you put it in your little
bank?' asked the little boy.
NO; got fathers permission to
spend it just as | pleased. However,
kept it for three or four days, just to
have the satisfaction Of having money
of my owned, earned by my own exer-
tions. And if | could have bought all
the things | thought of buying with
that nickel | would have had about
$40 worth of books, toys, marbles and
what not. Finally made up my mind
What do you think boughtT
Il am sure can't guess" said the
little boy. "What did you buy, papa ?
# went to the bakery and bought a
custard pie"
"Why. papaI And you said grandma
always had custard pie at home ant
let you have slice Of it as soon as yOu
got home from school"
Eyes. used to get slice, but not &
whole pie, and she never let me eat i
the way wanted to. So went to the
bakery and bought my pie and borrow
ed a spoon from the baker and ate al
the custard and left the crust. nevel
had anything taste so good in all m!
life"
you never allow me to eat custarC
pie that way, papa" said the little boy

For many years a well known Phila-
delphia attorney has employed an original
method to gain revenge on a large prop
ertv owner who once defeated him in a
lawsuit. 1t started over the rental Of
niece of ground on Second street in
what was once the business center OF
Philadelphia. Under the original con
tract the lessee of the ground paid his
rental in 300 Spanish dollars. but a
dozen years ago the owner desired a
change in the specifications. For some
reason the lessee objected and engaged
the attorney in question when the owner
brought suit against him and was sus'
tanned by the court
Ever since. however, the attorney mas
employed his revengefu tactics. Be
fore the annual date of payment he sends
TO Mexico for 300 Spanish dollars, heavy
and unwieldy in size. On pay day he
waits until after banking hours, when he
secures wheelbarrOw and has the load
of heavy silver carted to the ground own
or. Banks are closed, and the owner Is
compelled to keep the silver at his owl
risk. He then brings suit, the attorne!
opposes him, and, although annually de
feated. the latter declares that the fur
of il is worth the trouble.-Philadelph

"Some time ago, when / was in Paris
attending the international congress Of
pharmacy" said DIR. Albert French Of
Pittsburg, 81 saw a statue unveiled to
Bertrand Pelletier and ]. r. Caventon,
renowned as pharmaceutical chemists.
Caventon was born in 1875 and studied
at the Paris School of Pharmacy. While
pharmacist at the st. Antoine hospital
he met Pelletier, and they elaborated in
their work Two years after discovering
brucine and strychnine they were able
to announce quinine. and with rare disin-
terestedness they made their work public
by presenting an account to the Paris
academy on Sept. II, 1920. In their
memoir they stated that they had sue
ceeded in isolating cinchOnine and quinine
from both red and yellow cinchOna bark
and described the therapeutic properties
Of these substances. In 1927 the Mont
you prize of the academy was awarded
TO them in honor of their valuable dis
cOvery, and now a monument represents
ing the two investigators stands to re-
mind observers of their joint cOntribu-
ton to science and humanity. There

French, "and / will wager that is news

it is a physician or student along this
peculiar line of study. "-Exchange.

When the shah of Persia goes a-visit-
ing. he creates CONSERVATION in the royal
and imperial households which are, for
diplomatic reasons, obliged to receive
him. The fact that among the priceless
gems and curios which adOrn his treasure
room in his place at Teheran is preserv-
cd such a curiosity as a toothbrush will
give an inkling of why the shah in shah
is not a desirable guest. Most Of his
gorgeous robes Of state he has made in
England, but of late has rather affected
the French shops. The story is told of
an enterDrising firm of French shiEtmak-
ers who on the occasion of the recent
visit of the shah to the French capital
thought to do good stroke Of business
by getting his patronage. To this end
they sent for the shah's inspection a

The fact of the matter is that every

decks himself not only with his own
individual honors and distinctions won
