St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1902-08-06

When Macmonnies, the American
sculptor, was young man working In
Paris, Falguiere, the famous French
sculptor, on one occasion entered his
ateler and found there a beautiful
Diana that had been for months "on
the stocks" and was approaching a
perfection measurably satisfactory to
the sculptor himself.
Falguiere became so absorbed in the
work before him as to forget that 1t
was not his own. He began to twist
and pull the dainty limbs Of Diana this
way and that, to punch her in the ribs,
turn her queenly head-for she was
then only in clay, Of course and sus-
ceptible to mpressions-unti at last
he had produced the very pose he de-
sired. "There, my friend; I like her
better So" he cried and skipped out OF
the studio.
He had really intended to do Mac
monnies a favor and had indeed paid
him the greatest compliment of which
he was capable, but the young sculp-
tor was in distress, for on comparing
the remodeled Diana with a photo
graph Of Falguieres statue of the
same character he found the French
man had unconsciously made a prac-
teal replica of the other Macmon-
MES did not rest until he had restored
his statue to it's original pose.

How She Made q Profit.

In Paris a gentleman who Is very
fond of fine paintings bought for $1,000
francs a work entitled 1.-THE Bride Of
Abydos" and was congratulating him
self on becoming it's possessor when he
suddenly remembered that his wife
disliked very much to see him spend
his money in this manner.
"How can avoid a scene?" he asked
himself. IF 1 say that the painting
cost $4,000 francs, there will be an
awful time, and so I'd better say 1000.
No; I'll say 4,000."
By this time he had reached home,
and when he saw his wife he told her
unblushingly that he had just secured
a beautiful work of art for the nomi-
nal sum Of 5000 francs. At this good
news she seemed more disconnected
than pleased, but said nothing, and
the painting was hung up.
Next day the gentleman was obliged
to go to the south of France, and when
he returned after a weeks absence
his wife met him with beaming coun-
tenance and said: 1--WE done a good
stroke Of business while you were
away. You know that painting you
bought for 5000 francs? Well, I sold
it yesterday for $500, clear profit of
1900 francs"

Reason and Instinct.

A certain north country miner was
particularly proud of a clever little
dog he possessed. At times he was apt
to claim a little too much for his pet,
and one morning a neighbor was en-
deavoring to point out the difference
between instinct and reason when an
amusing interruption occurred.
A seedy looking tramp turned the
corner, and the dog, without so much
as a word from his master, sprang into
the road and offered battle.
There you are" laughed the miner
as the dog snapped and snarled round
the heels of the tramp; "'e don't ike
the look of the chap. That's instinct.
Suddenly the tramp turned and kick
ed the dog into an adjacent field.
"There you are" calculated the min
er's friend grimly. "The chap don't
like the look of the dog. An that's
reason. "-London Tit-Bits.

Shifting the Responsibility.

An Irishman who traded in small
wares kept a donkey cart, with which
he visited the different villages. On
one occasion he came to bridge where
a toll was levied.
He found to his disappointment he
had not enough money to pay it.
A bright thought struck him. He I'M
harnessed the donkey and put it into
the cart. Then, getting between the
shafts himself, he pulled the cart with
the donkey standing in it on to the
bridge.
In due course he was hailed by the
toll collector.
"Hey, man" cried the latter.
"Whaurs your toll?'
"Begorra," said the Irishman, "just
ask the droiver."

When the late Bishop Hare was pre-
siding over a Methodist Episcopal
church in New York city, large re-
ception was given in his honor, to
which a brother of his, lawyer, who
closely resembled the bishop, was in

During the evening a member of the
conference who had never met the
bishops brother approached him and,
shaking him warmly by the hand, SAID:
"Good evening, Bishop Hare. L
greatly enjoyed the sermon you gave
us today. 1t is just what this church
needs"
"You are mistaken in the person,
said the brother, smiling, as he pointed
to the bishop on the opposite side OF
the room, that is the man who preach

and on this he took out letters patent
Apparently he had some slight mlsglv-

A Literary KIeptomaniac.

Among French writers no one car
ried the profession of the literary brig
and to such an extent as Nine. de Gen
lis. In 1880 her evil ways brought her
into the courts of law under very dis
creditable circumstances. Bout, the
publisher of a series of manuals, en-
gagged her for the sum of 916 to write
a Manuel Encyclopedique de ZEN
fance." The manuscript, which had
been paid for. was on the point of be-
ing printed when it was discovered to
be an exact copy of a book of the same
kind published in 1920 by M. Dasscha.
l do not find it easy to understand the
audacity of a writer who would perpe-
trate a fraud of such enormity or the
imbecility which would suppose that
1t would not easily be detected.
Another time she contributed to a
Paris newspaper feuilleton which
turned out to be a close reproduction
of a romance printed some twenty
years before. Surely the poor woman
suffered from literary kleptomania.-

Hard Lessons In Good Manners.

School chaff is wholesome in most
cases, but it may cramp what should
not be cramped. AS to the chaff which
a man gives and gets at a university,
however, we do not think there can be
two opinions. 1t must do good, and 1t
has not the opportunity of doing harm.
Only those receive it who lay them
selves open to receive it. The quiet
man who wishes to read or to think
apart need hardly ever come into con-
tact with his fellows unless he so
chooses. The staggering or bump
tious man, the opinionated man, the
offensive man-these are certain to be
chaffed, and the chaff usually goes
home; not at once perhaps but 1t usu-
ally gets there in the end with salts
factory consequences. The personal
remark may be rude, but rudeness is
often a very salutary weapon. 1t is
certainly one of the most valuable in
struments of English education. In
deed it may seem strange thing to
say, but it is surely true that contin-
ued experience of calculated, formu-
larized and well intentioned rudeness
teaches people to be polite.-London
