A Fair Divide,

"The American publisher is supposed
to be very thrifty person." said the
Bostonian who had been making Eu
ropean trip, "but in Paris | came
across an instance to prove that the
Yankee isn'tin it. I was stopping at
hotel where q workman was sent for tt
solder leaking water pipe, and he hat
only got to work when he fell dead Of
heart disease. 1t was matter Of two
hours before his body was discovered
and it had hardly been taken away he
fore the plumber sent in his bill. III
had tackled on for the two hours thai
the man lay dead in the house! The
landlord refused to pay, and the case
went to court, and the verdict was:
GAS neither the employer nor thu
landlord was to blame for the mans
dying when he did the bill for extra II
to be reduced one-half.

There is an ancient and more or less sub

can write a letter without adding a post
script of more Importance than all the rest
of the missive. A witty Frenchman con-

charmingly written letter from a woman
whose handwriting he failed to recognize.
She was evidently acquainted with him,
for she wrote of persons and things In
which he was interested. At the end OF
some dozen pages of feminine prattle came
this postscript: You will see by my new
