SIGN WELL PAID FOR.
One Thousand Dollars Word for
Railroad Crossing Warning.

At the Franklin Inn, literary club
of Philadelphia, a young poet. licking
his lips, said that Conan Doyle was
paid one dollar a word.
THAT is nothing" said one OF the
Reading railroad advertising men, Il
know of a case where a man was paid
$1,000 a word. Our line used to
have at its grade crossings a very
long and complicated sign that began:
Beware of the engine and cars, and
then this sign went on with lot OF
injunctions and warnings that would
have taken five minutes to read. In
number of accident cases the claim
ants for damages declared that our
long signs were not clear warnings.
Therefore the line decided at last to
get a new grade crossing sign. and
Judge Paxson was engaged to write
one.
1.-THE sign that Judge Paxson wrote
cost $1,000 a word. but 1t was a
classic 1t remains a classic. 1t has
been copied everywhere. 1t is as
well haown among us as Father, !
cannoi .ell lie,' or England expects
every IAN to, do his duty"
Tai What was the sign?p the poet
askoi niDatientIy,
"T, Sign that cost $1,000 a word,
or ses4s in all,'' said the railroad
man. vas the famous 'Railrond

WAY TO TELL A DIAMOND.
j4efui Hint for Lovers of These Beau.
tiful Stones.

Che jeweler made a small dot, like
period, on piece Of white paper
With a lead pencil. Then he held .
large diamond over the dot.
Look through this" he said.
Through the diamond the dot looked
precisely the same as before.
Now look through this" he shii,
taking up another stone.
Through the second stone the dot
was transformed to three dots.
There" the jeweler said. rs an
easy way for the average man to tell
a real diamond from an imitation. A
dot on a piece Of paper, looked at
through real diamond, is the same
as before; but, looked at through a
fake, It shows double or triple, or II
appears blurred, scattered"

MlRTH IN THE HOUSEHOLD.
DlssoIves Gloom and Brings Sunshine,
Says Writer.

Fortunate is the family where the
mother is the FIRST to see joke and
to lead the mirth. In too many homes
her sole share in the merriment IS
wan smile. accompanied. perhaps.
by a dismal remark that she doesn't
see much to laugh at
Nothing helps busy housewife
through her press of cares like the
ability to laugh long and heartily.
A humorous rhyme, a conundrum, or
q smart repartee cheers up a dull
