Crushing the Citrate.

One Of the first tasks they set the
new curate, who was handicapped by
youth and inexperience, was to investl-
gate the bona fides of a 'widow wo-
man" who had applied to the church
for help. He departed nervously on
his errand and knocked, as i'll luck
would have it, at the wrong door.
''How long has your poor husband
been dead, my good woman? What
number Of children have you? Are
any Of them working? If so, what
amount of money are they earning
altogether" were the questions he
fired, like shots from q revolver, at
the slatternly woman who answered
his summons. Il presume I am adj

Comets In Olden DAYS.

People nowadays do not regard the
comet as one Of those signs that fore
run the death or fall of kings, but the
superstition was still current in the
time Of Queen Elizabeth, though, to
the amaZement of her courtiers, the
queen calmly scorned it. It was also
thought that If the sovereign would re-
frain from looking at the malignant
celestial passerby no harm would come
to her. On one occasion Elizabeths
attendants shut and curtained her win
dows, but her majesty, as might have
been expected, with "a courage an
swerable to the greatness of. her es-
tate," caused them to be opened, cry
ing as she looked up: "Jacta est alea-
the die is castv Then, like King Knut
on the seashore, she read her people
homily, asserting that her "steadfast
hope and confidence were too firmly
planted in the providence Of God to be
blasted or affrighted with those beams
which either had no ground in nature
whereupon to rise or at least no war
rant in Scripture to portend the mis-
haps Of princes"

The Doctors ims nination.

II have IL good story on one Of Wash

prominent clubman, addressing some
friends in the billiard room of the Met.
rOpolitan club MY eyes had trou-
bled me for some months, and finally !
went to see the doctor about them.
After thorough examination he
said that the muscles were badly
strained, and then he gave me pre-
scription for drops to be used in my
eyes three times a day. When | left
he gave me an appointment for that
day week. as he said he could not ex.
anime my eyes for glasses until they
were in their normal condition.
''Well. l mislaid that blessed pre-
scription, and as l was particularly
busy that week l had no time to get
another copy. SO in some trepidation
kept my second appointment.
"As the doctor examined my eyes
hesitated a moment about telling him
I had not used the drops, when he took
the words out Of my mouth and the
breath out of my body by remarking
with pleased emphasis:
"'Your eyes are very much i'm
proved That medicine. which gave
you is certainly wonderful. It always
has such prompt and satisfactory re-
suits

I wasn't quite sure how he would take
the joke. You see. he may not have a
sense of humor."- Washington Star.

Queen Elizabeth as an Ale Drinker.

Queen Elizabeth as an Ale Drinker.
There is, an amusing letter, written
by the Earl Of Leicester to Lord Bur
leigh as to the lack Of sufficiently
strong ale for the queen at Hatfield
''There is not one drop of good drink
for her here. We were fain to send
to London and Kenilworth and divers
other places where ale was. Her own
beer was so strong as there was no
man able to drink it," Ale and bread
were the chief items of the royal
breakfast. The quantity of ale con-
sumed by ladies at breakfast in those
days was considerable, for in the reign
of Henry VIII. the maids of honor
were allowed for breakfast zone Chef
loafe, one manchet, two gallons of ale
and pitcher Of wine." A Lady Lucy
made mighty tonic of the national
brew. Her breakfast was chine OF
beef, loaf and gallon Of ale, and
for her pillow meal posset porridge,
generous cut of mutton, loaf and a
gallon Of ale.-Westminster Gazette.

Disraeli's Nuptial Joke.

There was little joke between them
DisraeN and his wife, which l heard
from the late dean of Salisbury. "You
know I married you for your money"
Disraeli would say to her. "Oh, yes,
but If you were to marry me again you
would marry me for lover was the
regular reply, "Oh, yesv' her husband
would exclaim, and the little nuptial
comedy ended.
But what DisraeH said to Bernal o.
borne once about his marriage is much
better worth the telling. It was at a
dinner party after dinner when the
men were alone. what did you mar
~ her forT' Osborne asked in his
characteristic way. Disraeli twiddled
his wineglass in the pause that fol-
lowed this point blank inquiry. Then
he lifted his head slowly and looked
the other very expressively in the
face. "For a reason" he said, (which
you could never understand = graft
