John Ruskan and Newman Hall.

While his church was building Mr..
Newman Hall had an amusing bout
with Mr.. John Ruskin. He went and
asked the seer's advice as to how to
erect church which should not only
be commodious, but beautiful; not only
sheltering from rain and sun, but In
spring happy thoughts and holy emo
tons.
He replied-as he had already writ
ten-"that we should not build up
stones, but gather together a few peo-
pie who would not steal or tell ties.'
II said," writes the pastor, "that we
had many hundreds of such and needed
building where under shelter they
might worship and be taught. He re-
peated his opinion, and / said had
made mistake in troubling him, as I
thought 1 was speaking to the author
of Stones Of Venice Whereupon Mr..
Ruskin made the singular reply:
mo, you are not. Every one who
does something in teaching men passes
through three stages of life. At first he
teaches what is inaccurate, then he un-
learns it, and lastly he teaches the
truth-which stage have now reach
ed"

Too Much For the Sheriff.

An Irish widow with quick wit one
day received call from sheriff who
had writ to serve on her. According
to the story. the widow saved the day
by some rapid fire counting which took
the sheriff by surprise when he called
at her house and began in formal fash
ion:
Madam, have an attachment for
you"
''My dear SIR she said, blushing,
"your attachment is reciprocated."
"You don't understand me- You must
proceed to court" said the sheriff.
well, know It's leap year, but
prefer to let you do the counting your
self. Men are much better at that than
women"
Mrs. Phelan, this is no time for fool
ing. The justice is waiting"
"The justice waiting! Well, then,
suppose I must go. but the thing is so
sudden. and besides I'd prefer a priest
to do IL"

why Meerschaum co1or..

Meerschaum would not color at all
but for the fact that it is boiled in
wax. If used in its natural state, it
would quickly become soiled, the ma
terial being so porous that it absorbs
the slightest moisture from the hand or
anything it comes in contact with. But
the wax fills up the pores and gives the
meerschaum sort of enamel. A pipe
that has been spoiled by oyerheating
so that it will not color can be reboiled
in wax and restored to some extent.
This kind of work is done in the trade
by experts, for it requires great skill.

BROKEN LANGUAGE.
We Understand 1t Much Better Than

One is astonished that the Partisan,
the London man and the Berliner can
not understand any one who speaks his

English of the laundries and the truly
awful middle of those who start with
potpourri called ''yiddish" and end
by massacring English with it.
In Paris if you merely shift the en-
phasis from the last syllable, where 1t
is always placed in French, to the first
syllable, even the most familiar French
words fall like so much Greek upon the
unyielding French ears. In London If
you say, It'll come back at noon,'' they
declare you ga foreigner" because you
did not say midday but if you took
any real liberty with their tongue and
should say, Il will back again by dinner

average Englishman to understand
Chaldaic. 1t is the same in Berlin.

cities.-New York Mail and Express.

Any Old Thing, From Money to a

The spaniard at Home.

The Spaniard at home is not under
standable. He loves flowers and car
ries pistol; he is passionately fond of
the theater, but does not keep quiet
that he or his neighbors may hear; he
is charmingly courteous and inexcusa-
bly, cruel; he shares his bread and wine
with every stranger and stabs friend
over trifle. Such are the traits of
some. The bullfight is the favorite
amusement of this class, and the bull
fight, though declining somewhat in
popularity, is yet the national diver
sion.

We live BY our blood, and on

There is nothing else to live
on or by.
When strength is full and

treshed, bone muscle and brain.
IN body and mind, with con
tlnual flow of itch blood.
This is health.
When weak, in low spirits,
no cheer, no spring, when rest
IS not rest and sleep is not

is poor; there is little nutri-
ment in it.
