friend to be prudent and not betray
her sympathy for the south. They
were ushcred into the presence Of Mr..
Lincoln, aud the object for which they
had come was stated. The tall, grave
man bent down to the little maiden
and, looking searchingly into her face,
said:
"You are loyal. Of courseT'

tated n moment and then, with n face
eloquent with emotion and honest as
his own. she replied:

Apropos of notices on houses, a cor
respondent of the Westminster Gazette
relates that a man in Scotland wished
to have cut over the door of new

called a house of prayer" He left the

Some believe that the fork was In
use all over Europe as early as the
year 500 A. D.. but If they were their use
and the fork itself were lost sight OF
up to about the beginning Of the seven
teenth century, when it was either dis
covered or rediscovered and popular
lied. Walton, Weems and other anti
quarlans hold to the earlier date, be-
cause q stone vessel containing coins
of the middle ages and some iron forks
was found at Sevington, England, In
the year 1894.

The Monument WI, n Misflt.


A stately granite shaft had been
erected in the cemetery Of a Massa-
chusetts town In memory Of a man
whose life had been anything but
praiseworthy. None the less the monu-
ment was one of the sights to be shown
to a stranger. and one day a former
resident of the town who had been
away for many years returned and was
taken to see the granite obelisk. He
was no stranger to the faults and fail
ings of the man whom 1t eulogized
with its gilded inscription and, after
silent contemplation of the shaft on all
sides. he said, "Well, if it's for good
ness, it's too big, and if it's for badness
it's not big enough. New Haven

Obtaining Heirs In China.

The practical Chinese have adopted q
simple way OF obtaining heirs where
there are no legal ones-the adoption
of children who belong to side branches
of the family. In this way the family
line is kept intact. In the absence OF
male descendants in the side branches
of the family the sons Of strangers are
adopted. The Chinese prefer this meth.
cd to marrying second wives.

Ted on the Instant

The Reason Lizzie Could Not Marry
Ted on the Instant
Late I'm the sixties actors still had
their costumes carried to and from the
theater in champagne baskets by the
basket boy" and the very first and
most important duty of the actor or
actress after rehearsal was to get the
basket ready and place it outside the
door: then only one might feel free.
Well. Cupid had been taking a little
aier behind the scenes, and young
comedian had been stricken with love
for n bit of a girl who danced between
the first play and the farce. One day
he saw the old leader of the orchestra
tap her cheek with his bow, and the
awful familiarity was too much TO be
endured silently. He walked nome
with her, and in the boarding house
hall he spoke. \ minister's name was
mentioned. a number, street, some
thing about license. Nothing seemed
very clear except his love and his de-
sire to get married at once, at once!
"Oh. Lizzie. will you marry me? Dear
little Lizzie, will you?' he implored.
And Lizzie, who was about the height
of a nine-year-old child, but was full
sixteen, very pink and very pleased
looked cOyly up, then modestly down
and answered, I'm awfully glad you
love me, Ted, but - but, really you
know, you'll have to wait little"
Down went Ted's face. Wait" he
cried in a tragic voice. Wait! Good
kingdom. Why? What for? How
long?" And Lizzie, with wide, reproach-
full blue eyes. said, why, Ted, you
know we'll enough you'll have to wait
till get my basket ready!-Clara Nor
ris In McClure's Magazine.

Chrysanthemums in Japan are train
ed into numerous quaint shapes, like
the old English yew trees, in the forms
Of peacocks, etc. In Tokyo there are
gardens filled with life sized figures
made entirely of the flowers and leaves,
the faces being masks, and these chrys-
anthemum figures accurately represent
court ladies. warriors. children and an
imals, one of the favorite characters
being a young lady with Il fox's tail
peeping from under her dress and a
mask which by the touch Of string
turns into rcynard's head.

fess plainly that events have con-
trolled me-" During his term Of office
he was one day called very weak"

conclusion that he knew when to fol

OWNED with nicely when he could
take q step in advance. He made an
effort to keep on good terms with con-
gress. and he differed with that body

sity came, decisively. While he had
consideration for those who did not
agree with him, and while he acted al
ways with a regard to proportion, he
was nevertheless a strong and self
confident executive. - James Ford

a certain parish are said to have strong

study and suggested a change Of ben

In the peculiarly harsh. str.Gcrt voice
that so sadly married his preaching, "if
you insist on knowing. it's your voice
they complain of they don't like your

lordship was preaching, and as he
went out he said, What n fine sermon,
but what an unfortunate voice."

can factory in the world.
The hve-gallon can turned out at
the Devoe is q marvel of evolution.
The present methods of manufacture
are almst entirely the work of Her
man Miller, known in Standard circles
AS the father of the five gallon can"
The machinery for making the can
has been SO developed that while, in
1865, when Mr.. Miller began his work,
one man and a boy so,lered $50 cans
in a day; in 1850, thre men made 5000,
and since 1893 three men have made
24.000 1t is en- actual fact that a tin
can is made by Miller in just about
THO time 1T takes to walk from the
point in the factory where the sheets
of tin are unloaded to the point where
the finished article Is filled with oil.
