WHY SHE LIKED VENUS.
Housemaid's Preference Had Very
Practical Basis.


"a practical point of view will in
fiuence even an artistic judgment"
said the lady with the Burne-Jones
chignon, "as l discovered the other
day when my new servant seemed to
take such interest in the objects of
art in my parlor as no maid of the
many who have preceded her in the
house ever showed. Pleased with her
really intelligent interest in my pic
lures and bric-a-brac, l took pains to
show her the best points of each OBJ
ject, and really l found the task a
pleasant and unique experience But
| wish now that had not asked her,
as did at the end of the impromptu
exhibition, which of the objects she
liked best
This is the one 1 like best,
ma'am,' said Mary, pointing with her
feather buster to the armless Venus
of Milo.
"Well,' thought l, this is getting
more and more interesting. Here is
Mary showing high artistic judgment
"'And why do you like the Venus
best, Mary? / asked, anxious to hear
her estimate of the famous statue
Why, sure. ma'am. it's the aisiest
to doost!' replied Mary, and hastily
closed the private view"

TRAVEL BY SPECIAL TRAINS.
Mode of Conveyance Attracts Little
Attention To-day.


Attention To-day.
Special trains are becoming so fire.
quent now that they attract little at
tention, except they make record runs
for long distance or unless there is
some trouble collecting payment for
them" said veteran railroad man.
"Ten years ago, when 1 was division
superintendent on one of the big trunk
lines running out of New York, a
special train was an event that never
failed to get mention in the newspa-
pers. Stationmasters required ample
Eotice to get one in readiness. and
there was great fuss making ar
rangements all along the line. At any
of the big railroad terminals in any
city now a man can get a special
engine and car to chase a fiief almost
as easy as he can check his trunk
Only few minutes notice is required
and right of way is obtained for 100
or 200 lines along the line without
noticeably disturbing schedule runs
A man who has to keep an important
business engagement, or woman
hurrying to sick husband, pays 500
or double that sum for a special with
as little concern as paying supper
check in a swell hotel. We live in
a rapid and extravagant age, and grow
accustomed to such things"

caustic Criticism.

The said neighbor, while in a prepare
tory school. concluded that he would
one day startle the world with his
lofty literary style.
Having devoured many works of
rhetoric, he finally landed in Harvard,
where he determined to begin with
his startling" tactics. He prepared.
at great length, an essay that he says
he considered Q masterpiece of sub
lime and lofty style. When it came
back he was quite astonished to find
the following brief criticism written
across it's face in large blue-pencil
letters:

CARRYING IT TOO FAR.
irishman Had Travelled Too Lcng a
Distance fer a Joke.


The late George T. Cline, the eccen.
trio. Chicago millionaire, had a pas
sion for violins and Irishmea. Though
on himself he would never spend
more than fifteen or twenty cents a
day. he would readily pay $4,000 or
$4,000 for a vinlin, and he thought
nothing of buying Irishmen sun,ptu-
GUS dinners, with champagne, in
order to hear them talk in their
musical brogue.
An Irishman once played Colonel
Cline false. He stole pair of boots
from him. Discovering his theft the
millionaire pursued the Irishman,
overtaking him as he was about to
enter a pawnshop with the boots in
his hand
Those are my boots; you have
stolen them" said Colonel Cline.
Sure, it was only a joke" said the
Irishman
But the inexorable millionaire haul
ed the thief before a magistrate, and
here again the man repeated:
ut was only a joke, your honor"
only a joke, hey?" said the magis-
trate. well, Mr.. Cline, how far
away from your house had he carried
the boots when you overlook him?"
Over mile, sir" replied the mil
lionaire
Held for court" said the magis-
trate. This is a case of carrying the
joke too far" - =.

And care-worn brows forget to frown.

That they have had in pins all night.

And by clean collars they're oppressed
When Sunday comes.
When Sunday comes how grand to sit.
when you have dined among your kind
To read a bit. and doze a bit,
Until they bring the supper in.
With music of the jingling spoon
And saucer, while the kettle huns
An extra pleasing Sabbath tune
