Fire Dogs Ancestry.

In regard to andirons a writer in
the Connoisseur points out the curious
fact that the older specimens rarely
come In pairs, but are of different
heights and sizes 1t was the custom
in the middle ages, it seems, to make
them uneven so as to facilitate the
moving and raising Of the huge blocks
employed for firewood. He continues:
According to Violet lie Due. since the
most remote ages, from Etruscan times
down to the Romans, such andirOns
were made of iron. In England and
irons are called fire dogs, and in the
Bargello there is splendid specimen
made in the form of crouching hounds
I hold that the andirons were in the
first Instance made in the shape of ami
mails lying at rest. shaped of clay or
stone, and 1t was much later that they
were made of iron, when they often
ended In animals heads, most often in
that of dogs.-EXchange

blood rushes to the stomach and heats
it, for heat is necessary to promote di-

trary, calls the blood from the stomach
to the surface of the body, and under
those conditions digestion cannot go on
Mental work should be
avoided, too, for a little while after
eating, as it takes the blood from the
stomach to the brain. The dumb AMI

A STORY OF RAPHAEL.
The Way the Great italian Painter
Once Settled a Bill.

The Way the Great italian Painter
Once Settled a Bill.
Raphael, the great Italian painter
whose celebrated Biblical pictures are
worth fabulous sums of money. was
not a rich man when young. He en-
countered some of the vicissitudes of
life, like many another genius. Once
when travelling he put up at an inn and
remained there unable to get away
through lack of funds to settle his bill.
The landlord grew suspicious that such
was the case, and his requests for a
settlement grew more and more press
ing. Finally young Raphael in desper-
alton resorted to the following device:
He carefully painted upon a table
in his room number of gold coins, and,
placing the table in a certain light that
gave them a startling effect, he packed
his few belongings and summoned his
host
There he exclaimed. with a lord
ly wave of his hand toward the table,
as enough to settle my bill and more
Now kindly show the way to the door"
The innkeeper, with many smiles and
bows. ushered his guest out and then
hastened back to gather up his gold.
His rage and CONSERVATION when he
discovered the fraud knew no bounds
until a wealthy English traveller, recog-
nizing the value of the art put in the |
work, gladly paid him ESQ for the table. !

There was once wise KING who
was awfully curious He was possessed
OF a desire to know everything, and
was continually asking questions In
deed. his thirst for knowledge carried
him 80 far that he wanted to know the
age Of every person he met But,
being a King, he was exceedingly POI
lite. and would resort to strategy to
gain his ends
One day there came to the court =
gray-haired professor, who amused the
King greatly. He told the monarch "A
number Of things that he never knew
before, and the King was delighted
But finally 1t came to the point where
the ruler wanted to know the age Of
the professor. SO he thought Of math-
ematical question.
"Ahemi !" said the King. II have an
interesting sum for you; it is a trial
In mental arithmetic. Think OF the
number of the month of your birth"
Now the professor was 60 years old
and had been born two days before
Christmas. so he thought Of II, Decem-
Der being the twelfth month.

your answer-1260. The month of your

Tt is said that all the precious stones
have been counterfelted, with more or
less success, except the opal. That stone
never has been. and perhaps never will
be, counterfeited, for the reason that 1t
is made up Of innumerable facets so
held together by cohesion as to refract
the light like a prism. 1t is this quail
escent effect. A few artificial opals
have been obtained in the laboratory,
but they seem to have been accidental,

A Common MispronuncIation.

One of the commonest mispronuncia-
tons in our language is the word "ener-
vate." Nearly everybody pronounces 1t
en-ervate with the accent on the first
syllable While that method is given
as secondary by Webster and the Cen
fury Dictionary, both give preference
to e-ner-vate. with the accent on the
second syllable. Worcester gives that
only. not allowing en-er-
vate. 1t is evident. therefore, that we
should say e-ner-vate.
