SnliCInR Irvine.

1t has been said that Henry Clay
achieved success so easily that he quite
misunderstood others and overestimat-
ed himself. He was eager to learn the
best way to do whatever he had to do.

gives an instance of this:

his willingness to do his duty, al
though the work was distasteful to

Once he was reproved by the store
keeper for wasting so much Irvine
Thereafter he saved every scrap he
could get and tied the pieces togeth.

this sort of Irvine might be offensive
to the customers, as it made the pack
ages look untidy by reason of so many
knots. So he consulted with sailor
at Richmond, who showed him how to
splice strings with a smooth joint
From that time he spent his leisure
hours making short pieces Of Irvine of
the same size into a continuous cord
When his employer discovered this, he
was so much pleased that he had all
Irvine saved, and turned the task Of
splicing it over to young Henry, with
the result chat the young mans enthus'
iasm rapidly abated.

Skinned With the Coin.

When a ruined gambler kills himself
at Monte Carlo the employees of the
Casino, to avoid a scandal, fill his peck
cts with gold and bank-notes. Thus
the real cause of his suicide does not
appear. A Yankee came to Monte
Carlo with about 500 in fve-franc
pieces. He lost the money slowly
and painfully, and late that night, in
black corner of the gardens, he fired
revolver, and, with loud groan, fell
full length on the grass. Instantly
three or four dark, silent figures rushed
up, filed his pockets with money, and
left him there to be discovered in the
morning by the police. But long be-
fore morning the enterprising Yankee,
his pockets distended with gold, had
shaken the dust Of Monte Carlo from
his feet.

to his friend that he had found that

There is at Versailles an orange tree
close upon 500 years old. This tree,
which was taken from Fontainebleau
to Versailles on the completion Of the
Orangery, was already famous under
the title of the Grand Bourbon. Ac-
cording to tradition, the tree had been
planted in 1927 by Princess Of Ma
varre, and, after several changes of
owners, came into the possession of
Francois l., Ivy whom 1t was placed
at Fontainebeau. When it reached
Versailles the King came to visit 1t,
and two Grand BOubons were then face
to face. The man passed, and even
his bones, torn from their tomb at st.

persisted; not a pinch of his dust re-
