About Shocking.

We frequently hear the expression, sGod bless you" uttered after some one has sneezed. The expression. if we can believe Clodd in his Childhood of the World" dates back to the time of Jacob. We are told In Jewish lit- erature that previous to his time men sneezed but once in a lifetime and that was the end of them, for the shock slew them. Jacob prevailed In prayer and had the fatality set aside on the condition that among all the nations q sneeze should be hallowed by the words, "God bless youw In the "Jata- ka." one of the books of the Buddhist Scriptures, we read that the expres- sion was, May the blessed Lord all low you to liver'
 Buddha on one occasion while preaching to his disciples happened to sneeze. The priests gave vent to the exclamation, and Buddha lectured them for interrupting his discourse.
 ''If when person sneezes." he asked, "and you say, May he live! will he live the longer?"
 Certainly noti" cried the priests.
 And If you do not say 1t will he die any the soonerP'
 Certainly not!' was the reply.
 Then" said Buddha, from this time forth If any one sneeze and priest says, May you liyer he shall be guilty of transgression."

tonlshment, and without a word or gesture she seized the old blue jar and hurried from the room.
 Randall smiled the first real, soul felt, refreshing smile that he had indulged in for several months and vowed by the pigtail of the old slant eyed that he would stay rooted to the spot until Clementine returned.
 What she said to the genius of the jar as she flew up stairs with 1t only the mandarin can reveal.
 As Randall paced the parlor, pulling his mustache and wondering if Clemen- tines keen sense of humor would carry her safely through the trying hour, she came shamefacedly into the room, bear ing In one hand the blinking old man. darin and in the other the pleading let ter he had borne so long hid In his clever old bosom.
 Randall met the dear girl more than half way, and as she whimpered gently on his shoulder he promised never never, never to tell.
 And when they were married, if you believe me, that ridiculous old ginger Jar accompanied them on their wedding trip, and Randall packed the bosom ot the grotesque mandarin full of Clemen tines bridal roses, there to fade nno there forever to remain. Now, as Randall never told and Clementine never told, the entire responsibility of this revelation lies be tween you and me and the ginger jar.

The Big Ships of the Past.

Gigantic as are the sea monsters de- vised by the modern shipwright, we have not reached the dimensions of the Mannigafual of Tristan legend, whose masts were so high that a boy sent aloft to bear a hand" came down a gray headed man, whose deck was so spacious that the captain had to gallop about on horseback to give his orders and whose length was so great that when swinging In the channel her stern scraped the cliffsof Albion white, while her bowsprit swept the forts at Calais.
 But we have exceeded in some re- spects the dimensions of Ptolemy's great ship, which was APO feet long, 57 feet broad and T2 feet In depth of hold and which carried 1000 rowers and 5000 mariners, besides unnumbered soldiers and passengers. Of the great ship of Hiero. king of Syracuse. the di- mensions have not been recorded. but she was at least as large as Ptoiemy's, considering that her freightage was "6O,O measures of corn. 10000 jars of salt fish, 10000 talents weight of wool and of other cargo 20,000 talents, in ad- ditlon to the provisions required by the crew." and that she was so large no harbor in Sicily could contain her.

A WISH.

So let me hence Whose part in the world has been dreamed out
 and done One that hath fairly earned and spent, In pride of heart and jubilance of blood, Such wages, be they counted bad or good, As Time, the old taskmaster, was moved to pay, And having warred and suffered and passed on Those gifts the arbiters preferred and gave, Fare, grateful and content, Down the dim way, Whereby races innumerable have gone ".. Into the silent universe of the grave. '..1 Grateful for what hath been, For what my hand hath done, mine eyes have
 seen,
 My heart been privileged to know; With all my lips in love have brought To lips that yearned In love to them and wrought in the way of wrath and pity and sport and song Content, this miracle of being alive Dwindling, that I, thrice weary of worst and best May shed my duds and go From right and wrong And, ceasing to regret and long and strive, Accept the past and be forever at rest.
