Poor PENS Sarcasm.

for he had stayed an hour later than
usual at his cuban objectionable
offense in Mrs. P.'s eyes. That ener-
getic lady, having vltuperated her
spouse in the hall as he took on his
great coat, at last stopped for breath.
1t was then that poor Pen tried the
effect of sarcasm.

mouth and that street door,"
Difference between--No," said
Mrs. p, taken off her guard.

He Goes Before You.

He goes before you, o my heart!
Fear not to follow where He leads;
He knows the strength each task de-
mands .l.
He knows the grace each trial needs.
He's Just a little farther on
Along the dark and lonely way.
His bleeding footprints you may trace,
He goes before you all the day.
He goes before YOU o my heart!
Through deepest depth, Ger highest
height;
He knows where turks the ambushed foe,
And what the battles you must hght;
He sees the pitfalls you Will meet.
The place where you Will faint or taH;
The WEAKNESS, the pain, the tears
He goes before, He knows 1t all.
He goes before you, o my heart!
He does not ask that you shall bear
A single pang He has not borne,
A single grief He does not share;
He beckons on through toll and woe,
Through storm or calm or tempest
And YOU shall see Him. as he said.
For He shall lead you home at last.
He goes before you, o my heart!
Still follow on through gain or loss,
And for the Joy that's set before,
Despise the shame. endure the cross;
The path your falt'ring steps must take
Is one His nail-plerced feet have trod;
Through garden, mount and rlven TOMB
He goes before you up to God. ,,

Collecting ThimbIes a Fad.

II you have lost your thimble sus-
pect your best friend. If it is an old
thimble that you have had around the
house for long time, and which you
would not exchange for a dozen new
ones, suspect her all the more. 1t is
the fad in New York now to collect
thimbles. Like all fads, it will proba-
bly, run for a year before women and
girls who get the thimble habit tire of
It. Furthermore, it is the vogue to
appropriate your friends thimble If
you cannot get it in any other way.
You can atone for it by making little
present to her.
Women are as chary Of presenting
their old thimbles as men are of CIV
ing away pipes that have comforted
them in weary hours. But thimbles
must be collected somehow. Mrs. Cor
nelius Vanderbilt is said to have the
best collection of thimbles in New
York, but with her 1t has been a labor
Of years. One Of her thimbles orig
inally adorned the finger Of Queen
Elizabeth of England. She has one
that belonged to Queen Victoria and
one from the former Princess OF
Wales now Queen Alexandra.

THOSE "PIEcEs OF EIGHT"
Real Value Of oft-Quoted Spanish
Monetary Unit.

Real Value Of oft-ouoted Spanish
Monetary Unit.
A reader of the Times inquiries as
to the value of ninety pieces Of
eight" This sum is mentioned several
times in the document filed in the
state library, at the Capitol. relating
to the discovery of small part OF
Capt. Kids treasure which was
secreted in a house in Stonington by
two of his pirates. The Century Die
tionary gives the following:
"Pieces of eight-The Spanish peso
duro (hard dollar bearing the numer-
al eight, and of the value Of eight
reals. The commercial sign for dol
lar 90 is supposed to have reference
to this eight, the vertical strokes rep.
resenti-g the pillars Of Hercules,
which was formerly stamped on some
dollars"
Under the word dollar" the follow.
Ing is given:
"Dollar-The name applied to the
large silver coin Of Spain, the cele-
brated Spanish dollar or peso, also
called pillar dollar (from its figure
of the Pillar of Hercules) and piece
Of eight, as containing eight reals"
The value of the ninety pieces OF
eight" would therefore have been
equal to the value of ninety Spanish
dollars at the time the document was
drawn up, which was 1699.-Hartford
Times.

EYES INCREASE IN SIZE.
Visual Defects Frequently NeutrallEs
After Middle Ace.

visual DeIectS frequently NeutTd'@V
After Middle Age.
A conversation with a prominent
halter developed the fact that among
men of large affairs where decided
executive ability and strong mental
equipment were requisite, it was COM
mon to find an increase in the craniai
development. A more detailed inves.
tigation among some of the large
metropolitan hatters revealed the fact
that many Of them had for years, by
means of an automatic measuring de-
vice, kept records Of peculiarities or
the cranial outline of many Of our
prominent men, which had led to the
discovery Ito which, however, little
Importance had been attached) that
the skull often shows decided In
crease in size after middle age.
Thus, If it Is fact that the human
eye depends largely upon the sur
rounding bony structure for its size
and proportion, 1t can readily be seen
that, in the case of an eye which pre-
sents abnormal visual conditions, due
to an inadequate development, the in
crease in the size Of the skull referred
to, accompanied as 1t usually is BY
generally improved physical condi-
tions, would naturally tend to a cor
responding increase in the size of the
eyeball, thereby contributing to q
possible naturalization Of the visual
defect.

improved since Tudor times. The
CHASTITY spectacle of many of the trees

about London bridge and Temple Bar

see men sitting in the pillory peltcd
with rotten eggs and probably inclrd-

noses and ears for expressing too
freely their opinions, political and re-
llgious.
The drains were in appalling condi-
ton. The innumerable churchyards
were so full of collins that they often
projected through the turf. Bear and
bull batting, dog fights and boxing
matches were attended even by royal

FISH HARD TO KILL.
lncased In Mud, II Can Be Carried
Across the World.

lneased In Mud, II Can Be Carried
Across the World.
A very unusual demonstration was
recently given by Prof. Denny to his
students at Firth college, Sheffield.
Among the most ancient animals still
lnhabiting our planet is the so-called
mud fish of Africa. This creature is
worthy of our respect, II only In con-
slderation of its antiquity, which
dates far back In the early ages OF
the world. The most striking feature
Of the mud fish is the possession OF
lungs as we'll as gills. On the ap-
proach of the dry season, in its nat
ural haunts in Central Africa, 1t hol.
lows a chamber In the mud and en-
tiers upon a rest extending over many
months, during which time 1t is with.
out access to water, and breathes only
air.
While In the mud these creatures
may be dug up and survive even after
a Journey across the world In this dry
state. Prof. DERRY received one OF
these mud blocb7 not long ago. In
the presence of the students the hard
block was placed in warm water and
after being thus exposed for nearly
two hours the FISH that went to
sleep in tropical ! ca many m tbs
before. awoke ard ne forth from
its temporary serultfTc to find it-sli

YaoW Not Their Value.

Thackeray has said that If women
knew their power they could marry
any man they wanted. This is just
where the trouble les; they do not
know their power, nor understand
wherein their charms lie OF course
there are exceptions to this rule;
there are many who understand only
too we'll and WELD their scepters-
or their swords-with too dexterous
a hand. But there are those who I'M
dervalue themselves, are too retiring,
and let the happiness which is meant
for them slip from their hands.
