Office, they overfowed upon tables and
chairs. At last they We're heaped upon
the foor-and still they came.
This superiority of women who
wanted him at length had curious
psychological effect on the advertiser.
He counted the letters and found there
were 5000 of them-fact! Then he be-
came SO bored and wearied of opening
marriage offers that he turned woman
hater-became disgruntled over the
whole feminine sex. He went away
from that Office, rented new one and
left orders that all letters coming to
the old address should be burned.
And still they kept coming!

German statlsticians with no great
burden of serious work on their shout
ders have been calculating what part
of a woman's life is spent in looking
at herself in mirror She begins, as
rule, at six years. From six to ten
she has a daily average of seven min
utes. From ten to fifteen she devotes
a quarter of an hour to her glass. At
twenty she certainly spends thirty
minutes daily admiring herself and
when past twenty whole hour. The
statisticians are tactful enough not TO
say when a woman begins to take less
interest in her personal appearance,
but women more than sixty years old
do not, they say, spend more than ten
minutes daily at their mirrors. All
this time reckoned up-it is simple
sum in multiplication-mak 1000
hours, or about ten months, at the mir
ror They then proceed to compare
the time which mana German man
-devotes to this occupation and come
to the conclusion that his average is
seven months.

The Breeding Stone.

There was a curious superstition
which prevailed in Essex half CEN
fury ago. 1t was believed that certain
stones possessed the power Of breeding
other stones. / remember being taken
by a man Of the upper laboring class
to see a well known breeding stone
which lay on the sward by the side of
a lane in the parish of South Weald,
near Brentwood 1t was seemingly a
water worn block of sandstone or pos
sibly, have since thought, of pudding
stone, which would explain great
deal.
1t was larger than a mans head,
with cup shaped cavity the size of a
small orange, in which lay a pebble
about as big as an acorn. was told
that this pebble continually grew lar
ger and that if 1t We're removed the
breeding stone would begin to breed
another 1t was evident that the man
firmly believed what he told me, and
he got quite angry when / ventured to
cast a doubt upon the story. Notes
and Queries.

If Men Were More COURTHOUSE

The reason the marriage advertiser
wins women so easily is that he knows
how to fascinate the feminine sex with
his pleasing manners, refined appear
ance and beautiful and delicate small
eourtesies. He is the pink of chiyalry,
showing a woman such Difference that
she concludes he regards her as su-
perior being, and is flattered out of her
senses. If good, honest men only knew
enough to show to their own wives the
chivalrous courtesy manifested by the
sleek rascal toward his victims the at
lection Of the wives would never
waver. SUSAN PEPPER.

A Daring Deed.

While the mutinous sepoys were at
tacking General Wheelers intrench-
ments at Cawnpur a shot from their
batteries blew UP the contents of a
two wheeled cart loaded with car
tridges. 1t also set fire to the wood
work of the cart, which was standing
in the place where the English ammu-
milton was stored. Both the mutineers
and the English saw that If the fire
was not extinguished there would soon
be d most disastrous explosion The
sepoy batteries therefore poured In a
deadly stream Of round shot to prevent
the English from putting out the flames.
A young lieutenant, Delaforse, unmov-
ed by the concentrated fire of shot,
threw himself under the blazing car
rage, tore away the burning wood
with bis hands and. throwing earth up
on the blazing brands, stifed the fire
before It could spread to the ammuni
ton. How he escaped the rain Of hui
lets Is incomprehensible.

One Matrimonial Advertisement.

Some time ago man in New York
city inserted in Sunday newspaper
an advertisement for a wife with
money. He was an adventurer, but he
had not reached the stage Of the man
who makes a luxurious living by multi
marrying.
Now, this is true story Of what
actually happened. Make no mistake
about that. The answers began to
pile up around the advertiser. They
came by the hundred, flooding the man
at every mail. Many even contained
photographs, and the letter writers
poured out to this stranger their whole
personal history in the most reckless
manner. The narrator OF the story

Give Time to Books.
After dinner the woman called on
two friends. They were a married cou-
pie. They had not been married so
very long.
The wife, who was suffering from a
slight cold, lay on the couch among the
pillows. She had on red kimono. She
was very pretty, with the red to match
in her cheeks. In her hands was a
book. 1t happened to be of the same
color as her kimon0, which was also
pretty. Attached to her book was a
tiny little electric light, with a shade.
The battery lay by her side.
The husband reseated himself at the
center table, By his side was an open
book with paper knife keeping the
place for him. 1t was under the read
ing lamp.
How long have you been married
now?' asked the woman as she took
her seat in a big armchair.
