THIS AND THAT.

The reason a woman looks COO!
on hot day is she isn't.
A girl can enjoy going anywhere
with her brother if he hates to have
her do it.
One years work of a mans brain
may be ruined by his tongue in q

Every minister has his favorite

Women talk constantly, hoping
thereby to say something at some
time that will really make hit.
If at last you don't succeed it may
be due to the fact that you didn't
try, try again quite often enough.
Talk is said to be cheap, but the
man who talks too much has to pay
for it at high rates sooner or later.

some man say it's a shame to take

A Grateful Son-in-Law.

Fl. H. Rogers, On his return Vo!-
age from Bermuda last month SAID
one evening in the smoking room OF
his travelling companion, Mark
Twain:
'sHe is an incorrigible humorist,
Even in his most emotional moments
he can't help being funny.
"When he married in Elmira IN
1870 his father-in-law made him a
present of a fine, well-furnisheo
house in Buffalo.
'"The present came as a surprise
Mark Twain knew nothing of it till,
amid a party of relatives and friends,
he was shown over the luxurious
place. Then, when they told him
it was his, tears filled his eyes.
"But he was still the humorist.
and turning to his father-in-law he
said, though in voice that trembled
a little:
Mr.. Langdon, whenever you're
in Buffalo, if it's as much as twice
a year, you are to come right up
here and take tea. You can stay all
night, too, if you want to, and it
shan't cost you cent. Washing.

Women's Signs Danish Fish.

The living brook trout that used to
disport in the fountain in the summer
garden of the Plaza have been trans
planted because some of the women
wept at the sight of some of the
speckled beauties making their exit
to the kitchen.
The trout used to disport them
selves in marble fountain. amid
rocks and watercress. A dainty Dip
net lay on the edge Of the fountain
and guests were permitted to capture
any trout in the water.
At first this was huge success and
delighted the guests. But finally the
women guests used to. turn away,
overcome by the. sorrows of the fishes.

CONTEMPLATING INSANITY.
A New Sort-Unf1attering Estimate
of Hospital Corps.

VI hoSpitdI NohRS'
Such is the lack of State or local
supervision over the hospitals for the
insane in South Carolina that it was
left to United States secret service
men to discover the fact that the
State Insane Asylum at Columbia
had a counterfeiting plant running
at profitable speed. The perhaps
unique discovery was made that one
of the patients, man dangerously
if not hopelessly insane, is an expert
counterfeiter of silver coins. 1t IS
hardly supposable that the head
authorities of the asylum would have
allowed him to ply his trade in the
institution, but the attendants in di-
rect charge of this man knew OF his
ability, and allowed him to exercise
it-for a reason. They got him the
molds and the material and set him
at work, circulating the product
themselves and making, presumably,
what there was in 1t.
Though this is a new direction for
display of the depravity of the class
of men employed in many hospitals
for the insane as attendants, this
discovery will give little surprise to
those who know the general char
acter of these men. They are lack
ing in principle. A man who will
wilfully abuse those helplessly and
often harmlessly insane will rob his
grandmother-or circulate counter
felt money, if he gets hold of it

Probably few people knoW that
this country contains number of
parishes SO small that their popula-
ton can be housed under one:or two
roofs. For instance, Upper ,Eldon,
near Stockbridge, consists of two
houses, which with an eleventh CEN
fury church and tiny Gods acre"
in the middle of farmyard .adjoin-
ing one of the dwellings,, comprise
the whole parish. Not much larger
is the population of Lullington;. five
miles f!O.l EAstbourne. Small as~its
church is-the interior dimensions
are only 16 square feet-ft Is quite
large enough for the Inhabitants
In Grove, near Leighton Buzzard,
there are only about dozen .inhabi-
tants. the parish containing a mod
ern farmhouse, two cottages, ami a
tiny church. At Rhyd, in Flintshire,
while there are only three adult in
habitants.> the village contains five
cottages and one shop; till recently
there were two licensed houses; zone
of which still remains.-Tit-Bits

er it advisable to heed even the dicta
of Solomon and the injunctions Of
Paul? We can hardly believe this to
be the case even in the Lenten period.
AS we have advised frequently, neith-
er the wise king nor the eloquent
apostle was suitably equipped by ex-
perience and association for the guild
ing of womankind; one had too many
wives, the other had none; wherefore
the viewpoint of each, though varying
widely from that Of the other, was
preiudiced and untrustworthy. The
very petulance of Solomon's language
in expressing preference for life in a
corner of the housetop' rather than
with a brawling woman in a wide
house suggests the likelihood of an
annoying experience still fresh in
mind, else he would not have dwelt
with so much particularly upon the
size of the mansion"

CUCKOO AND OTHER NESTS.

CUCKOO AND OTHER NESTS.
On the afternoon OF May % l by
chance discovered in a hedge near
where I was at work in my garden
hedge sparrow's nest containing three
eggs. For a couple of hours or so
previous to this find l had noticed
the appearance and temperance Of
cuckoo in the same corner. of the
garden.
On finding the nest it at once
struck me that the cuckoo probably
had business to transact at this par
ticular nest, and that l by my near
presence was unwittingly preventing
its being carried out. l accordingly
retired some 100 feet distant, and sat
down with a pair of opera glasses to
watch events. In a few minutes the
cuckoo was back and in the nest.
On emerging at the end of about
minute it perched a short distance
from the nest, with one Of the hedge
sparrow's eggs in its beak. This it
proceeded to break up and, l think,
eat. Shortly afterward it flew away.
On going to the nest l found there
the cuckOo'S egg and the two remain
ing sparrow's eggs. I also picked up
the broken shell Of the third spar
rows egg.
The following points are of inter-
est: The nest was apparently known
to the cuckoo before its visit on this
particular afternoon. It's attempts to
reach it, though frustrated, were ga
ti7ltly repeated until successful. The
cs~ vas laid in the nest and was not
carried there in the birds beak. 1t
distracted and destroyed one egg
from the nest The nest is in the
midst of many gardens and houses.
Why should it be accepted in prefer
eGce to the more numerous and more
easily accessible nests in the open
country 50 Near at hand?-Cor-
respondence The Field.

caught her fancy, and large flock
now paddles in the lagoons of the
Wharton estate at Lenox, Mass. Mrs.
Wharton's especial delight, however.
is her swan exhibit. Her aesthetic
nature was moved by the decorative
effect of tame swans on English es-
tates, and as a result she is now
engaged in swan culture at Lenox.

Mrs. Wharton Is giving time to a
French reading room, where she
keeps many of the French periodicals
for the use of her friends. She has
arranged for lectures in French, and
her tendency in this direction OF late

Hen.

Henry Bittz, of Fairfield, N. j., is
grevng over the death of his old
Plymouth Rock hen, nct"d in the
neighborhood as the peaC> -" or Of
his barnyard. No fighting am =; its
occupants was allowed, and ii any
of the young roosters tried to indulge
in that pastime, they got sound
thrashing from the old Plymouth
Rock.
Yesterday, however. two swapping
turtles; brought to the barnyard by
the Bittz boys, began fighting. and
the old hen, true to her principles,
jumped in between the belligerents
to stop them. Seeing they had
common enemy, the combatants both
tackled her, and it was not long be-
fore each turtle had seized leg of
old Onyx and she had been thrown
to the ground.
Bittz, who heard the hens cries
and ran to- her assistance, was COM

the shape of a twisted turban, like
the first empire, a short lace scarf
being used, its ends hanging down
one side to the shoulder, while rope
of pearls festooned it, the orange
blossoms thrust in as an afterthought
a charming thought-at one side.
From her shoulders hung the long
court train of unlined point lace,
while her gown was of liberty satin
twisted about her figure in close
spiral, and ending in a long scarf
like trail that hung decidedly quite
to one side, balanced by the lace veil,
which trailed partially on the car
petings of purple velvet streWn with
white roses laid down for her feet.
The gown was draped at one side OF
the front to show the slipper, which
was of white satin, tied with white
satin ribbons about a pale pink silk
stocking.
Another bride, who wore a null
veil, had it punched into a tall mob
cap above a wreath of orange BIOS

behind, where one side hung in sort
of fiat cascade, showing a facing of
silver gauze, a broad silver galloon
entirely bordering its hem. At the
back, where the stuff laid on the floor

tipped with silver tassels that trailed

you have not you have missed about

Carnegie stands for libraries; Mrs.

Says Americans Are. Always Talking

that the best of the American speak

Curious Mexican Indians.

Buried in the heart of a civilized,
powerful. and progressive foreign
people, little handful of Indians
have lived for 800 years, and have
contrived to keep during all that
time their national characteristics,
their traditions. and their individ-
uality. If you seek them you will
find them in Amatlan de los Reyes,
village in the State of Vera Cruz,
Mexico. They are the Amatecas. The
Amatecas are perhaps the only people
in the republic who have succeeded
IN retaining for themselves what is
practically self-government.
