GOT A NEEDED LESSON.
Maria Forgot the Salt and Her Enc
plOyer Gave Her Som eft ing
for Her Memory.

The forgetfulness of servants is the bane
of all housekeepers. A London merchant
has servant who, although possessing many
good qualities, was at first very fergetful.
This fault was especially annoying at meal
times, when something essential was sure
to be lacking from the table, relates the
New York Times.
One day the family were seated at the
table and the bell was rung as usual. The
girl hurried to the dinirg-room
Maria said Herr ;, Just run and
fetch the big stepladder down from the attic
and bring it here"
Maria, who had been disturbed at her
dinner, gave a grunt of dissatisfaction,
but ran up the three flights OF stairs te
fetch down the ladder In about five
minutes she returned to the room painting
with her exertion.
'Now," said Herr B, 'tput it up at
that end of the room and climb to the top"
Maria did as she was told, and when
she was at the top Herr B quietly eb-
served
Maria, you have now got better view
than we have; just look around and ',ell
us if you can see any salt on the table.
My wife and | could not find it,
This settled the business. Maria has.

Most people think Iceland is more
noted for it's ice than for anything else.
On the contrary, Iceland has abundant
meadows, on the verdure of which live
f1ocl1s of sheep and herds of cattle
and ponies, while the soil produces in
abundance potatoes, cabbage and tur-
nips. The climate is neither extreme
1y cold nor in summer extremely hot,
as is the case in some northern 1ocali-
ties. There are glaciers, but they
form no icebergs, and the sea around
the island is never frozen.

1t was in a downtown theater recently,
and the climax of tragedy was approach

ment, the villain, lolling in a summer
garden, had been challenged to a duel with

empty on table thirty feet away.
The hero turned with a supercilious glance
and looked

SO intent upon seeing that none of its
laconic force was lost on the audience that
he must have been slow with the action
Just as his revolver appeared from a rear
pocket and was rising in the villains right
hand.

The neck of the bottle burst in a dozen

in his hand, stood there with fallen jaw and
lowering arm, while the gallery simply
went to pieces in the delirium of its joy
