Shopping Traits.

A London paper quotes a shopgirl
as saying that the Englishwonan can
generally be persuaded to take this
or that, whether she wants it or not,
and that she does not often see that
she gets value for her money. The
English are also courteous and consid-
crate. 1t appears that Americans, on
the other hand, give the greatest trou-
bic Of all. They are afraid of being
cheated, they want to make sure be-
fore they buy that they could not get
the same thing for less money else
where, and they are never courteous.
AS shoppers it is Frenchwomen, how
ever, who command the greatest adj
miratiOn, we are told. They always
know exactly what they want and
will take nothing else.

Asked Judge to Break News.

One Of the most picturesque figures
of the New York bar, says Success,
was the late Thomas Nolan, a lawyer
whose witty retOrts furnished subjects
for merriment at many lawyers
gathering. Now, Nolan was at one
time counsel for a poor widow who
was suing construction company for
the death of her husband. The case
had been placed upon the "day calen-
dar," but had been frequently post
poned, and Mrs. Moriarity, by the
time she had made her fifth call, was
in an exceedingly disturbed frame Of
mind. Consequently, the tones Of
Nolan's rich brogue were more than
usually fervid as he fought against the
sixth adjournment.
II am sorry" said Justice Dugfo,
'but your opponent has shown me
good cause for the adjournment, Mr..
Nolan, and the case will, therefore,
go over until tomorrow
Every we'll, sor," said the barrister,
sweetly, "but might l ask wan person
al favor Of this coort?"
Certainly, sir; with pleasure.
"Will your honor kindly sthep down
to my office and just tell Mrs. Mortar
ity that you have adjourned the case?'

was killed OH the railroad at Wilke )
barre, Pennsylvania, and the usual
brief description was published. Four
weeks elapsed before the body was
identified, and i'll that time the author
tiles received letters from one hun
dred and twenty mothers, each of
whom saw in the description some
likeness to a missing son. Men are
good deal alike, and that is nothing
to be proud of; but that mothers are
alike also, pitiful, forgiving, unchang-
ing, infinitely kind, is something for
which to thank God.

he declined to allow his name to be
used in connection with "Comus," as
the mask later came to be konwn. A
few weeks ago a statue Of the poet
was set up in front of st. Giles
Church, London, where he lies buried.

ant Of the earl for whom "Comus'
was written, felt herself honOred by
being chosen to unveil the statue of
him she called "a friend Of my an

pedigree was not to be compared with
the distinction that comes with intel
lectual gifts. AS the statue stands
near the site of the town house of
the Bridgewaters, it was thought fit

sented at Ludlow Castle on Michael

ago.

Once an cid Apache Indian, when
asked the question why his people

deer, for his people were hungry.
After walking all day he saw a

German health officers who have
been investigating conditions in the
railroad trains of that country have ar
rived at the rather surprising concu-
sion that one runs more risk in travel
ing second class on the railways of
the empire than III taking thirdc class
carriages. The reason for this is that
the third-class cars have uncushioned
wooden benches, which do not harbol
as many germs as do the cushions pro
vided in the second-class cars. In this
country there has been action taken
in some Of the States absolutely for
bidding the use of plush or any SINH
lar material as covering for car
seats.
