Learned His Lesson Well.

STANLEY" said his mother, "1 do
not like to see you playing with such
dirty boys. The language they use,
too, is not fit for your ears. They
are not the boys for you to associate
with"
The boy looked at his mother a
minute, and then as his little head
was thrown back he gravely asked:
"Who am | that | should not as
sociate with those boys?"
The mother was perplexed an in
slant, and then she said:
"But, Stanley, dear, that is not
it at all. The boys are not clean.
Their clothes are dirty, and they
"Mother," said Stanley, quick as
flash, "you have been reading to
me about Abe Lincoln. Now, he
wasn't clean when he was a boy, and
he didn't wear fine clothes, and he

She had nothing to say, and In two
minutes Stanley was chasing around
with three Of the ragged, dirty, but
plucky urchins with whom he was
so fond of playing.

T attooina.

1t is quite common in FIJI and
Samoa for a man to bear upon his
arm or body certificate of his birth
which is practically indelible. Tat
tooing is carried on in these islands
to an absurd extent, and it is the
practice to tattoo on the hand of q
mother the date Of her children's
births. Sometimes an enthusiastic
father will tattoo the date Of the
birth on the child itself, and no mat
ter how long it lives tho certificate
will remain easily decipherable. In
some adjoining islands every child
is tattooed almost from head to foot
on its completing its twelfth year.
The result is very remarkable, espe-
cially if the child is growing rapidly,
20 that the spaces between the tat
too marks increase in size year by
year.

9IaVes of Fashion.

The aim of dressmakers is to
make money, and they find this easy,
as they have to deal with very silly
people. Each year they alter the
fashions and take care to do this in
a way that the dresses Of one year
cannot be adapted to that of the
next year Women are the slaves
of these intelligent harpies. They
blindly accept the fashions ordained
by them and seem to be entirely ig-
norant of the fact that what may
suit one woman does not suit all.
Drossmakers have very little taste.
Even If they have, it is warped by
their subordinating it to finance.
Occasionally the fashion which they
inaugurate is not absolutely ugly,
but it is always overloaded in order
that large price may be charged
for the costume.-London Truth.

Rest After Meals.

"After dinner sit awhile" is a
time honored saying. 1t is also a
very true and physiologically cor
rect one, for when our food is un-
dergoing digestion our body is doing
great deal of important work. If,
therefore, we persist in taking exer-
else after food we are really ''burn-
ing the candle at both ends" and
giving our body double work to do,
with the result that indigestion
sooner or later attacks us. We
should therefore rest after meals,
and before them as well, and the
feeling of rcstfulness and indisposi-
ton to work just after a meal is a
natural warning and indication that
we should seek repose at that time
not necessarily sleep, but quietness
and rest.

QUEER CHANCES
Odd Ways In Which Lost Jewels Havo
Been Recovered.


One of the most romantic stories
of stolen jewels occurred with Fan
ny Kemble for heroine. An impor-
tunate American danced attendance
upon her until one day she finally
and peremptorily bade him begone.
He gazed steadfastly at her for
moment. Then, seeing that she was
really in earnest, he flung a packet
upon the table. "Well," he said,
"you may at least take this" And
he turned upon his heel and left the
room, and she never saw him more.
OF course she opened the package
what woman would not? In it was
very beautiful jewel, which, as she
had not the address of the giver,
she had perforce to retain, but not
for long. Some one besides herself
appreciated its beauty and took it.
Years passed, and she had. ceased to
repine for its loss. Then she was
staying in Italy, and to her at Sor-
rento there came a peddler, who,
quite by chance, displayed before
her his pack Of trivial wares. There
among them, its value all unsuspect-
ed, lay the long lost jewel, with
nothing to tell how it came into the
possession of the hawker.
To match this story one must
turn to the experience of a Sussex
clergyman. A ring which was an
heirloom in his family was stolen
from his keeping. Eighteen years
passed, and not word was heard
concerning the article. Then it
turned up inside one of the fingers
Of glove lost at a bazaar in New
Zealand. The finder had promoted
the bazaar, was a relative of the
owner of the ring and was the only
person on that side of the world
who could have identified it. The
owner of the glove was one Of a
number of persons who had in turn
possessed the ring. 1t had passed
from hand to hand all around the
world, to come, at the antipodes, to
the only person who could stay its
further travels and restore it to the
rightful owner.-St. James Gazette.

Perhaps She Meant II.

'NIy dear" said Professor Hill
ker, after the talkative caller had
gone, 81 was surprised at an express
sion you used in bidding Mrs. Tung-
ley goodby."
"What was that ?" asked Mrs. Hill
hker.
"You said to her: Come again,
Mrs. Turnkey. We will be glad to
see you.'"
"What was wrong with that?"
at was not correct. You should
have said, we shall be glad to see
YOU"
"Why~
Because that would have been
stating the proposition as q fact.
What you said indicated q purpose
or determination and seemed to con-
vey the idea that it would require
an effort to be glad to see her."
The professors wife rubbed her
nose vigorously.
"How do you know" she said,
'that it doesn't require an effort ?"

Finger Nails Like Bird Claws.

To what extremes physical de-
formation, for the sake of comply
ing with certain fashions or as the
fulfillment of ascetic VOWS, can be
carried is explained by DR.. l. Ranke
OF Germany in his anatomical trea-
tise entitled 'Der Mensch." He
demonstrates that in all lands GER
tain forms Of malpractice have been
INDUCED in. In old Peru, for in
stance, little children were placed
under head press and their scalps
were shaped oblong. This was espe-
cially the case with the daughters of
the mobiles and with the members of
the royal families. The climax is
reached, however, in the case of the
Chinese ascetic who is set apart as
holy man to serve in the joss
house, who does not perform any
manual labor and permits his finger
nails, with the exception of those on
his index finger, to grow several
inches long. Finally they become
entangled and resemble somewhat
the claws of an old bird.

Hand Organ Monkeys.

Most OF the monkeys that travel
with shows and organ grinders come
from the isthmus of Panama. These
animals are captured by the natives
in rather curious way. They take
a cocoanut and cut hole in it large
enough to admit monkeys paw.
A string is then attached to the nut.
The monkey is very inquisitive
little animal, and when he sees one
of these nuts he inserts his paw
through the hole to find out what is
inside. When the paw is closed it
cannot be withdrawn, and as the
monkey has not sense enough to
open his paw the nut is dragged by
the string and the monkey with it
to within reach of the captors, who
throw net over the monkey and
in that way secure him.

Too Many For Him.

At the conclusion of the regular
lessons at certain Sunday school
the superintendent made a short ad-
dress to the assembled classes. At
the end of his remarks he said:
"Now, all you boys and girls that
would like to go to heaven when you
die hold up your hands"
Instantly every child had hand
in the air except one little fellow
sitting in the far corner, who, in
answer to the superintendent
question, Don't you want to go to
heaven?" replied, "No, stree, not if
that crowds a-goin'." Ladies'

ORIGIN OF WORDS.
Bonfire Gomez From Bone Fire and
Tawdry From St. Audrey.

Bonfire Ccmes From Bone Fire and
Tawdry From st. Audrey.
Was "bonfreD originally written
"bone fire" and were "bone fires" an
GENTLY so called from the burning Of
the martyrs? This is one theory of
the origin of the word. From an
cient times bonfires have formed
striking part of the celebration of
st. Johns. eve, or midsummer eve,
June "a, which was observed with
similar rites in every country in Eu
rope. Fires we're kindled in the
streets and market places of the
towns. The young people leaped
over the flames or threw flowers and
garlands into them with merry
shoutings and songs and dances. A
heathen origin is believed to be in
dicated by these acts. A writer
\ says: "On the whole it seems proba-
BILE that the druidic fires, around
which it was considered lucky to
leap and dance on the occasion of
the summer solstice, were built up of
contributions brought by every one
who wanted to secure his luck for
the coming year, and SO bonfire is
really boon fire."
Printers "pi" and the well known
American food staple of the same
name have common pathological
origin. A writer in the London
Chronicle says: GAIL the pies seem
to 60 back to the original one-the
magpie-in Latin, 'pica'-from
whose black and white aspect come
pied and 'piebald.' The old or
dinal or service book was called 'pi-
ca or 'pi' because of the appear
ance of the black letter type on the
white page, and the edible pie, hav-
ing equally mixed contents, may
have been christened after this by
medieval humor. Printers language
retains both plea for a kind of type
and 'pi' for type all jumbled up"
A curious bit of English history
is preserved in the word "tawdry."
1t acquired its present meaning from
the phrase "tawdry laccs," a corrup-
ton of "St. Audrey laces,' sold at
st. Audrey's fair, which was the
same as st. Ethelreda's fair. Ethel
reda was queen of Northumberland
and abbess Of Ely and died in the
year 679.
