They are telling story in Washing
1 ton about the new secretary of the
navy. Mr.. Moody was riding on one
OF the Boston surface cars and was
! standing on the platform on the side
next the gate that protected passen-
gers from cars coming on the other
track. A WOman-a Boston woman
came to the door of the car, and as it
stopped started to move toward the
gate, which was hidden from her by
the men standing before it.
"Other side, please, lady," said the
conductor. He was ignored as only a
born and bred bostOnian can ignore
man. The woman took another step
toward the gate.
"You must get off on the other side"
said the conductor.
II wish to get off on this side," came
the answer in tones that CONCEALED the
official into momentary silence. Before
he could either explain or expostulate
Mr.. Moody came to the conductors
assistance.
'Stand to one side gentlemen" he
remarked quietly. THE lady wants to
climb over the gate."-New York
Times.
Efficacy of Prayer.
Rabbi Joseph KrauskOpf, comment
ing upon one of the papers read at the
recent Jewish chautauqua in Atlantic
| City, said he was in complete agree
ment with the premises that parents
cannot be too watchful of the religious
spirit in growing children. He cited
case of two boys, brothers, whose
family was strictly religious. One of
the lads tumbled into bed without the
usual prayer. and was addressed re-
provingly by the other

An Embarrassing Attachment.

i Care of Linen.
! The well-regulated linen closet
should have it's napkins and cloths ar
ranged in sets matching in quality and
/ design 1t is good idea to arrange
| the napkins folded on folding cloth
i and tie them in a. fat package with
ribbon fastening around from all
! sides. Care should be taken that
| household linen, not only napery, but
! towels and bed linen, is rotated in
! service. Sometimes the bottom of the
| pile of towels, sheets or pillow cases
| is not touched for months, the upper
pieces Of the piles being conveniently
taken off constantly and replaced by
themselves as they come from the
weekly laundering. 1t will be found
/ much more economical to take them in
! turn, as in this way they wear alike
and much longer than if in constant
! use.-Chicago Post.

Why They We're Pretty.
Mrs Blank, who keeps summer
boarders, had bought her butter for
some months of a neighbor named
Jones, living not far distant. The but
ter was made into pretty little half
pound pats and so peculiarly marked
and Ornamented that one day, when
Sally Jones had brought the butter,
| as usual Mrs. T lank said to her in
the presence of several of the board
ers:
''HOw does your mother make all
these strange marks on the butter, Sal
lyw
"Oh, she does that with her false
teeth, ma'am'' was the frank and
paralyzing reply.-Lippincott's
