Catching Book Titles.

Most readers would be at loss to
discover the source Of some book titles
and would forget If they ever knew
that 1.-THE World Well Lost" is Dor
rowed from Dryden, that "A Dream
and a Forgetting" is WORDSWORTH
phrase and that it was Othello who
loved Not Wisely. but Too Well" We
might add that in spite Of the famili-
arity of the famous "Elegy" not one
reader in ten will trace Mr.. Hardy's
Ear From the Madding Crowd" to
Gray or will connect "One of Three"
with the mariner who held the we'd
ding guest with his glttering eye. Mr..
Hardy's titles, like Howells', are al
most invariably attractive. "a Pair of
Blue Eyes" 1.-TWO on a Tower" and

After experiencing two or three

it enjoy yesterday.
The fair commenced yesterday after

large number of children present to-

The high dive did not come off as
was expected, and the little ones were
greatly disappointed. However, they
soon forgot about this free attraction
as there were so many other things tc
attract their attention
Last night che park was simply
crowded with people and every one OF

Little Emerson-Mamma, / find NO
marginal note in elucidatlon of this
expression, which observe frequently
to occur in my volume of FAIRY Tale
Classics"-'with bated breath" What
is the proper Interpretation OF the
phrase?
Mamma-"With bated BREATH" my
son, commonly occurs in fairy tales.
Your father often returns from pisca-
torial excursions with bated breath.
The phrase in such instances, howev-
er, has no significance as applying to
the bait employed to allure the fish,
but is merely an elastic term Of du-
bious meaning and suspicious origin,
utilized, as / have already intimated,
simply because of the sanction which
1t has gained by customary usage in
fairy tales generally. Do you compre-

In 1S49 or 1850 Charlotte Bronte
wrote of Thackeray: ITO me the broad
brow seems to express intellect. Ger
tain lines about the nose and cheek be-
tray the satirist and the cynic; the
mouth indicates a childlike simplicity,
perhaps even a degree of irresoluteness
In consistency-weakn in short, but
q weakness not unamiable." And Mr..
Motley, writing to his wife in 1853,
said: Il believe you have never seen
Thackeray. He has the appearance of
colossal infant-SmoOth, white, shin
ing, ringlcty hair, tlaXen, alas, with adj
Vancing years; Il roundish face with IL
little dab of nose, upon which it is Il
perpetual wonder how he keeps his
spcctacles."
This broken nose was always source
of amusement to Thackeray himself.
He caricatured 1t in his drawing. he
frequently alluded to it in his speech
and in his letters, and he was fond of
repeating Douglas JcTold's remark to
him when he was to stand as godfather
to friends son, Lord, Thackeray, l

Curly shaytnEs,

A shaving of wood curls up owing
to contraction on one side and eXpan-
sion on the other. This expansion is
accelerated by what is known as he
back iron or cap iron which is used
in most planes.
The object of this cap iron" Is to
break the ~shavings into short lengths
and to prevent the cutting iron" from
tearing or splitting the fbers of the
wood. which lie always more or less
in a slanting direction.
The nearer the edge of the back
iron is placed to the edge of the cut
ting iron the shorter the shavings are
broken off. These are smooth on n
side, and the serrations on the other
correspond with the distance between
the edges of the two irons.
All wood, too, is formed in circular
rings, such as can be seen In the sec
ton of any tree trunk. 1t follows,
therefore. that when the rings of wood
are cut across. as they are to a certain
extern in the act of planning, they are
relieved from tension, and curl up in
the endeavor to expand themselves.

For@st. and Human vitality.

One has but to look back through his
tory to see how closely related is the
forest to human vitality. 1t was in the
forests of Thessaly that the early
Greeks received their energy that later
Powered into genius. 1t was the forest
jewellers of Germany that conquered
decadent Rome and later gave to Spain
the vigor that swept back the Moor
and brought under her flag almost the
whole known world. But today what
is Greece. what is Italy, what is Spain?
They have been stripped of their for
ests, those nurseries of vigor. and their
decay has set in. Everywhere the law
holds good. 1t is in the forest that the
manhood is nourished which builds up
great civilizations. But cities arise,
trees are swept away, and the inevita-
BILE decline sets in. Forests nee de-
stroyed cannot return, and v all the
sites of ancient civilization are blowing
the desert sands.-Arthur Goodby in
New York Times.

The winner of a prize of a guinea
offered by the London academy to the
person who should select the three
most pregnant and felicitous sentences
from any authors. chose the following
three quotations. The first was from
Ruskin:
Fancy plays like a squirrel in its
circular prison and is happy; but mag
ination is a pilgrim on the earth-and
her home is in heaven" The second
sentence was taken from the works of
Mazzini: 'DiscOuragement is but dis
enchanted egotism." The third was
the following from Robert Louis Ste
venson: THE true wisdom is to be al
ways seasonable, aud to change with
a good grace in changing circum-
stances. To love p%iaythings well as a
child. to lead an adventurous and hon
orable youth and to settle when the
time arrives into a green and smiling
age is to be a good artist in life and
deserve well of yourself and your
neighbor."

DIR. Andrew Wilson writes: "If We
assumed that flowers were merely
evolved to crafty human senses we
should be entertaining a woefully linn
tied view of nature. The botanist will
tell you that everything about a flower
is meant to favor one end. That end
IS the production of seeds and the prop
agation of the species. The colors of
flowers-nay. yer the little splashes of
a hue or tint seen on Il petal-are in
tended to attract insects that they may
carry off the fertilizing dust, or pollen,
to other flowers of the same or near
species and thus insure a sturdier race
as the result of cross fertilization. II
Is to this end also that your flowers are
many of them sweet scented. The per-
fume is another kind of invitation to
the insect world. The honey they Sc
crete forms a third attraction-the
most practical of all, perhaps. Then
the arrangement of the flowers on the
stalk. the times of opening and shut
ting of the flowers and the position Of
the stamens and pistils are all so many
features whereby nature is giving each
plant q help on the way"

BABIES IN SIAM.
They All Receive the Same Name,
Dang Mt Birth.

Dang ut Birth.
All babies in Siam receive the same
name at birth. says Ernest Young. the
author of THE Kingdom of the Yellow
Robe" This name is Dang. which
means red, and it is the only designa-
ton vouchsafed the newcomer for some
months. For several years they wear
no clothing, though perhaps a string Of
beads or bracelets or anklets as orna-
mcnt. At a child's birth a cord that
has been blessed by the priests is tied
around the outside of the house, and
three balls Of rice are thrown In lucky
directions" by three old women, who
are always present at such a time and
whose business it is to solicit for the
little one the patronage and protection
of sundry guardian angels. The cord
and the scattering about the premises
of a certain kind of native fruit are
supposed TO be ~efIicacious in preventing
the entrance of evil spirits. AS a mat
ter of fact, what with the heat Of the
climate and the cleansing fires kin
died in portable earthenware stoves
and the presence of many people in the
small, low ceilinged rooms. the atmOs-
phere is so stihingly hot and uncom-
Portable that it is doubtful whether
even evil wanderers from below would
care to stop there long.

A FLIGHT FROM RUSSIA.
whatTeanyson's Father knew About
Emperor Pau1's Assassination.


shortly after the assassination OF
Emperor Paul of Russia Tennyson, the
father of the poet, dined with Lord st.
Helens, the British ambassador, in
Moscow. Several Russian officers OF
high rank whose names he did not
know were also guests. During dinner
a guarded reference was made to the
emperors death. why do you speak
90 gingerly about a matter so notori-
eus?' cried Tennyson impulsively, lean
ing across his neighbor, a Russian
whose breast was covered with orders.
we know very well In England that
the Emperor Paul was murdered.
Count Zoboff knocked him down, and
Benningsen and Count Pahlen stran-
gled him" There was a strained 81
lence; then the ambassador abruptly
changed the subject. As the guests
filed out into an adjoining room Lord
st. Helens drew Tennyson aside.
Don't go into the next room," he
whispered, ''but fly for your life. The
nan next you. across whose breast
you leaned. was Count Pahlen. and
Zoboff was also at the table" He gave
q few hurried directions, and Tenny-
son rushed off. threw his clothes into a
~portmanteau and fed behind fast
horses to Odessa, still in evening garb,
though the cold vas intense. He lay
hidden for weeks and at last. in the
disguise of a servant, was smuggled
on board an English frigate.

living in Sofia, "our streets are full Of

they are very cheap, as the peasants

to 20 lusor ($4) a month for one who
cooks, washes and irons. Girls are Of

Practically the responsibility ceases

pier, or as soon, to be exact, as she is

the authority of the marine superin-
tendent. who is in command of the
piers and tugs and harbor front equip

of the docking of all vessels.
To bring "A giant liner to rest at her

of the tide, the Roadway impaired by
her engines before they stop. the depth
of the water, must all be taken into
consideration, for the quarters are mar

Harder Work.

When the clever writer and carica-

George Bernard Shaw as dramatic crit
ic of the London Saturday Review, he
was told by the manager that Shaw
was getting such and such play. "Of

enced," the manager added. You can
scarcely expect so much"
"Oh, yes, ! shall" rejoined Mr.. Beer
bohm decisively. Indeed, l shall ex-
