There is no reason why a man who

Blessings of an Alphabet.

Few people realize" said a college
professor, that the twenty-six symbols
that we call the alphabet represent sin
gly or in combination all the sounds Of
all the languages upon earth. By form
ing letters into words we are able to
embody thought, to render it visible,
audible, perpetual and ubiquitous. EN-
balmed in writing, the intellect may
thus enjoy a species of Immortality
upon eas'h. and every man may paint
an impcrishable portrait of his own
mind immeasurably' more instructive
and interesting to posterity than those
fleeing likenesses of face and form in
trusted to canvas or even to bronze ana
marble What myriads have passed
away. leaving not wreck behind them,
while the mental features of some con-
temporary writer survive in all the
freshness and integrity with which
they were first traced Literary paint
ing is the greatest of all delineation!
For it we may thank the alphabet and
the Phoenicians for the alphabet
1T was Gibbon, | think who said
that Phoenicia and Palestine would
ever live in the memory of mankind
since America as well as all Europe
had received an alphabet from one and
a religion from the other"

The Man Who Tired carlyle.

There is a story of Carlyle in his old
age having taken the following fare
well in his broadcast Scotch of 4 Young
friend who had had him in charge for
walks and who. while almost always
adapting himself to Carlyle's mood,
had on Il single occasion ventured TO
disagree with him: Il would have you
TO know. young man. that you have the
capacity of being the greatest bore in
ChriStcndom." The boredom had con
sisted solely IN the rather negative sin
of not having been convinced of the
truth of one of Carlyle's dogmas, sin
all the more hcinous because. instead
of standing boldly up to Carlyle and de
claring his doctrine utterly perverse,
the companion had betrayed his weak
ness 10y I'm apologize tone.
Now, Carlyle liked disciples, and he
respected antagonists, but he could not
endure being merely thwarted without
being thoroughly reused. He felt in
that case that he had made no impress
sion at all on his interlocutor; that he
had neither won him nor excited him
to resistance And nothing bored him
so much as that. OF course it is only
exceptionally dcspotic minds that are
bored in this way.--London Spectator.

The history of the casting of statues

Benvenutn Cellini cast his great Per

the rest of the process to some faithful
workmen who understood his plans.
Finally, however, one Of them came

Eccentric Wagon wheel.

A very interesting paradox is the one
concerning an ordinary wagon wheel,
which is solid and rigid, yet when fast
ened on its axle on a wagon when the
wagon moves part of the circumference
of the wheel which is in contact with
the ground is for an instant at absolute
rest, while the point directly perpen-
dicular to it is flying along at high
rate of speed. The two points horizon
tai with the center of the wheel are
travelling pretty fast. but only half as
fast as the topmost point, and as the
up going horizontal point increases in
speed the down going one slows up I'M
til it is at rest for a moment when in
contact with the ground. Yet the wheel
is one solid piece and there are only
two points going at the same rate Of
speed at the same time. Yet if the
wheel is taken off the axle and rolled
down an incline every point of the cir
conference moves at the same rate of
speed.

degree, her daughter having married
an English lord the Earl of Yarmouth.
The late William Thaw provided in
his will that Harry should not come
into his share of the family's 100000
600 fortune before reaching the age of
thirty five. He thought in this way to
curb his sons money spending propen-
sites. According to the will Harry
was to have the comparatively small
sum of $1,000 year from the estate
as an income in the meantime. But
Mrs. Thaw managed to provide that
his income should be $4,000 a year
through the consent of the other heirs.
When his attachment to Miss Nesbit
became known it was said he would
forfeit the additional ST. 800 year by
marrying her. The report that he had
married her in spite of this condition
OF facts was circulated. but on arrival
in this country few days ago Mr.
ThaN refused to confirm it.

In ''Thrums" lived il merchant tailor
who ordered from a friend, book
agent complete set of an encyclo-
pedia which was being published in
monthly parts. All went well till the
deliveG of the last volume, which
proved to be about one-half larger
than any of the others. Delivery was
refused on the ground that the vol
ume was not according to sample and
broke the uniformity of the set. Mr.
Comrie Thompson was then acting
sheriff substitute for Forfarshire, and
the resulting case came before him
The plaintiff stated his case and Nh
Thompson then advised the defendant
to take delivery, adding:
Now, Mr.. -, don't be foolish. II
the book is larger they don't propose
to charge you anything extra, and you
ought to consider you are having o
bargain"
"Well," pleaded the defendant, I'm
a tailor, and if your lordship were to
order coat from me, and l quoted a

q half size bigger than you wanted it,
you would, have no doubt, refuse de-
livery. And might then say: Don't
be foolish, sheriff. The coat, it's true,
is much larger than you want, but the
cloth is the same, and l won't make
any extra charge. You ought to con-
slider you are having a bargain"
This rather tickled the court, which
expressed its appreciation of the point
