The District Schcolmastep.

There IL one thing in this base
ment world that I always look upor
with mixed feelings Of pity and re
spect
But there IL one man in this world
to whom | always take Off mi hat
and remain uncovered until he gets
! safely bv. and that IL the dssrik
schoolmaster.
When I meet him, I look upor
him as master just returned from
the stake, or on his wy there to be
cooked,
| He leads a more lonesum and
singul life than an old batchelor,
a nd a more anxious one than an old
made.
He IL remembered just about as
long effeckatelli as a gide-b board IL
by a travelling pedIur.
| If he undertakes to make hiz
scholarz luv him, the chances are he
will neglect their lurnin, and if he
don't lick UNI now and then pretty
often, theigh will soon lick him.
The dislrikt schoolmaster ain t
got a friend on the fat side ov the
globe. The boys SNOWFALL him
during recess, the gurls put water
in hiz hardie, and the school com
mittee make him wurk for half the
money a bar tender gets, and board
him round the naborhood. where
| they Civ him rye cofy sweetened
with molasses tew drink, and cod
| fish balls two or three times a day
for his vittils.
Don't talk to me about the
pashunce ov the anshunt Jobe.
Jobe had pretty plenty ov blles all
owes him; no doubt they were all ov
one breed
Every young one in the distrikt
school IL a bile oy different breed.
and every yung one needs different
kind of poultiss to get good head
on him.
Emmy man who has KEEP distrikt
school fer tea years, and has board
| ed around the naborhood, ought TO
be mayer general, and hsve pen
shun for the rest ov hiz nateral
days, and a boss and wagin to du

ROMAN MILLlONAiRES.
The Phenomenon of Mammoth For
tunes Not New Thing.

The Phenomenon of Mammoth For
tunes Not New Thing.
While it is not a very tangible con-
ISOLATION to those of us who belong to
the less favored class commercially,
there Is at least sort of historic COM
fort in knowing that the phenomenon
of mammoth fortunes is not new
thing
A magazine writer goes back to an
cient Rome, when there were no rail-
roads or trusts or corporations, and
gives some figures ON the individual
fortunes of that day which might look
attractive even to some of our modern
plutocrats.
Seneca, the philosopher and author,
was worth $17,50O,O0O; Lentulus, the
augur, $16.600,000; Crassus, the poll
tician who formed with Caesar and
POmpey the first triumvirate, had a
landed estate of more than $S,000,000;
the emperor Tiberius left fortune Of
$11SOO0,000, which the depraved Calig-
ula got rid of in less than year. A
dozen others had possessions that ran
into the millions.
1t is true that these Romans did not
make these fortunes in what we
would call regular commercial opera
tons. But they got the money, and
they held on to it, which is about all
that can safely be said of possessions
that run into seven figures IN any age
or country.
And, speaking Of campaign contribu-
lions and so forth, julius Caesar once
presented the consul Paulus with $780,
600 merely as a token Of esteem and
coupled with the hope that Paulus
would do the right thing in a certain
political matter that was pending. The
argument was effective with Paulus,
and neither he nor Caesar suffered any
In popularity.
There are many things under the
sun that are not new.-Omaha World

NAILED TO THE CROSS.
The Two Thieves That Were Cruel
fled With the Saviour.

The Two Thieves That Were Cruel
fed With the Saviour.
In nine out Of ten pictures of the cru
cif1xion where Christ's two companions
in death are represented they are pic
tured as having been fastened to the
cross with thongs or cords. The ques-
ton naturally arises, Were the thieves
In reality bound to their different in
struments of torture while the blessed
Saviour was nailed to his? And, if so,
which mode Of death was considered
the more gnominiOus-binding or nail
ing? The remoteness of the event and
the fact that in this case historical truth
may have been sacrificed to pictorial
effect make the above questions hard
ones to answer. The early writer's al
most invariably refer to the thieves as
having been nailed to the cross, while
the early picture makers adhered to
the general rule of representing them
as having been tied or bound to their
separate crosses.
If we are to give any credence to the
story Of the holy Empress Helen and
her reputed discovery OF, the three
crosses in the year 32S A. D., the two
thieves were nailed to their crosses in
a manner similar to that observed in
the crucifixion of the Saviour. This
conclusion has been settled upon for
this reason: When the three crosses
were disinterred from the mound in
which tradition said they had been
buried, that upon which Christ had
suffered was only distinguished from
the other two by the miracles it per-
formed. This would certainly suffice
to prove that all three of the instru-
ments Of torture bore similar nail
marks and that the tradition Of Christ
being the only one nailed was not
known at that time.-St Louis Repub-
lie.

First Matrimonial Agency.

The title Matrimonial Agencies and
Advertisements" ought to attract at
tention in our time, when requests for
marriage fill the journals in the form
of gross or jocular and sometimes seri-
Gus announcements. That may seem
to be a new phenomenon Of modern
life, yet NJ Henri d'Almeras in La
Revue Hebdomadaire says the real
originator of this industry was one Vii
laume. In the last days Of the empire
he set up in Paris a sort of universal
agency, which would supply furnished
apartments, domestics, wives and hus-
bands.-Journal de ST. Petersburg.

The Tally Stick.

An old time way of proving ones
right to the payment Of money loaned
was by tally sticks. A plain stick was
used, and when man loaned a sum a
stick was broken, and the creditor and
debtor each took a part. When the
time for payment came the man who
had the stick which fitted exactly to
the stick held by the creditor received
the money. Two sticks never break
In exactly the same shape, so there
was never any dispute about who had
q right to the money.

Their Reward.

DR.. Strachan, bishop Of Toronto, was
waited upon by two churchwardens,
who complained that their clergyman
wearied his congregation by repeating
the same sermon. He had preached it
twelve times. The bishop asked for
the text. Neither of the churchwardens
could remember. go back" said the
bishop sternly, "and ask your clergy
man to preach, the sermon once more
and then come hack and tell me the
text."
