Gambling.

The writer once spent Saturday
afternoon in the study of dignitary of
the church while the ecclesiastic strug-
gled in vain to frame an argument
against gambling to be presented to the
congregation on the morrow. He aban-
doned the attempt. Far be 1t from
literary journal to assert powers the
possession of which the professionally
religious are fain to disclaim, yet with
submission we even venture to believe
that at least one cogent and effective
argument lies against all forms of gam
bling-one. namely, based on the truth
that wealth. great or small. is a trust
and therefore may not be put in risk.
The moralist may declare that the
gambler gets, or at least wants to get,
something for nothing. Men will laugh.
They know better. The winner gave
his chance to lose for his winnings.
For his losses the winner got his
chance to win. But ask the speculator
whether he would gamble with trust
funds held by him for orphans and
then suggest to him the one great truth
that Is Selling hold of mems conscience,
the most hopeful sign In these perplex-
ed days Of social unrest, that men are
trustees of all that they call their own.

Life Insurance,

1t is an interesting fact that, what
ever the reason may be, life insurance
is much more popular in the United
States than in any other country. In
proportion to their numbers the Amer
lean people carry twice as much life
insurance as the Britishers, five times
as much as the Germans and eight
times as much as the French.
This is partly explained by the large
number of American policies issued to
serve other purposes than mere provi-
sion for the families of the insured.
The scope Of what may be called bust
ness as distinguished from family in
surance is constantly enlarging. A nov
el and interesting recent development
of 1t Is the insurance of the lives Of
Protestant ministers for large sums
which are made payable at their deaths
to their churches.-New York World.

Paying the Landlord.

The proprietor of one Of the new
apartment houses near Fifth avenue
has paid a rather heavy penalty for
having a cartoonist as one Of his ten
ants. The artist wanted some changes
made in the decoration of his apart
ment, and the proprietor declined to
make them. The proprietor's features
are pronounced, and he wears long,
flowing side whiskers. His face, dis
torted to suit the cartoonist's fancy,
has appeared nearly every week in one
of the comic papers. Sometimes the
proprietor figures as the villain and
again as the countryman who is bun
koed every week in the pages Of this
publication. The cartoonist let's the
whiskers grow from week to week;
then, just as his victim imagines that
they will grow so long that his friend
will not recognize him, the artist trims
the whiskers down again. The propri-
etor Of the apartment house has con-
cluded that the only way in which he
can get even with the cartoonist is to
put in bill for services as model.-New
York Sun.

EATING FISH.

1t is not good form to ask for a Sec
ond helping of fish.
1t is considered extremely bad form
to use a knife in dissecting fish.
A little modern fish knife. with an In
genious fork arrangement on one side,
is now made.
A bit of lemon is served with broiled
and baked fish, and it is in correct form
to use the fingers in expressing the
Juice.
Potatoes are considered a proper ac-
cessory to the fish course.
Sliced cucumbers, with plain French
dressing, are also served.
With a boiled fish the potatoes are
also usually boiled, cut into bits or
scooped out and garnished with little
melted butter and chopped parsley.
Never use the fingers to separate the
bones from the eatable portion Of fish.
The bones must be evaded with such
dexterity as one can command without
other aid than such as bit of bread
held in the left hand may furnish.

She is an intelligent woman, mind

A VERY CURIOUS BIRD.
The One Young Mark Twain Sprung
Upon the Scientists.

Inc one NOung MARK twain Sprun8
Upon the Scientists.
Mark Twain's father was an ornithol-
ogist. He had several friends who
were also enthusiasts on the subject of
birds. Whenever any one of them dis
covered a rara avis it was the custom
to have a consultation. Mark had been
a witness of several of these bird in
quests and had noted the delight the
old men took in discussing a new
found specimen. One day it occurred
to him to provide the Hannibal orni
biologists with real circus in the
form of bird. He killed crow and
also barnyard rooster. .Plucking out
the tail feathers of both the crow and
the rooster, he substituted the ROSTERS
tail feathers for those of the crow, pro-
ducing a unique effect. When he had
the specimen nicely prepared, he went
to his father and, handing it to him,
said
Here, father, is very curious bird
shot. l thought you would be inter-
ested in it."
The old gentleman gazed upon the
specimen with establishment. That
evening the ornithologists of Hannibal
were assembled in Mr.. Clemens par
Tor. The rare specimen was put before
them. The discussion was long and
learned. The opinions expressed were
various. One thought the bird was an
offshoot of the bird of paradise fam
lily; others had equally ridiculous no.
tons as to its ancestry. But there was
one who refused to be sweryed by the
popularity of the birds tail from the
judgment that it was of the crow fam
lily.
why, just look here" he said, lift
ing the bird by its tail feathers. He
got no further. The feathers came
out. There was quick closing of a
door. Mr.. Clemens started to leave
the room.

me few moments. will see Samuel
