Always Something to Learn.

President Eliot was arguing IN favor
of education by showing how before
the kindergarteners Wednesday night.
He illustrated his point by descrlb-
Ing the training of medical students,
and concluded by telling Of an old
friend of his who had suddenly become
deaf in one ear.
"How did this happen?" l asked
him.
''Well, I was blowing my nose the
other day when I felt something snap
in my ear, followed by an aching and
dullness.
"When the doctor came he said the
drum had split and asked how | did
it,"
"T only blew my nose told the
doctor.
"'Well, had you opened your mouth
when you blew your nose you would
not now have a damaged eardrum,'
was the medico's reply
''You see, my friend had lived seven
ty years and had never been shown
how to blow his nose," concluded Presi-
dent Eliot The application was ap-
preciated and greeted with great
burst of laughter.-Boston Journal.

Another Flame

A man who had lost his much-be-
loved wife consulted stone mason IN
regard to the erection of tombstone
with a suitable epitaph After having
a number of lines suggested, he finally
selected the following: '"The light OF
my life has gone out"
A short time afterward the Widower
fell in love with very charming girl,
to whom he became engaged. He i'm
mediately felt concerned about the
epitaph upon the tombstone Of his for
mer wife, and again consulted the
stone mason, to whom he explained
the circumstances, and stated that the
epitaph would have to be changed. He
intended to leave town, returning on
the day OF the wedding, and implored
the mason to take the matter in hand
and alter the epitaph so that the feel
ings of his prospective wife would not
be hurt. This the mason promised to
do, and when the widOwer returned he
visited the grave at once, finding that
the mason had been true to his word,
the epitaph now appearing: 1.-The light
of my life has gone out, but l have an
other match. Philadelphia Times.
