Pretty Close

A certain elderly lady was in a fairly good position and lived in one of tha suburbs of large town. One morn. ng she went to her butcher with . basket filled with wooden skewers. She told him she had saved them that they had been weighed to her as meat ard that she had brought them to recei, :. their weight back again in meat. ,s there man bold enough to carry ecoa- omy so far?
 Perhaps the meannesscs of moan people are more often actuated by feelings of avarice than by those ot economy. Ii would be difficult, for h. stance, to find worse case than tlle following: An old man once wrote 8 letter to a friend, and wishing to save his stamp. he ordered his servant to take it to its address. It was rainiug, and the girl wore new dress that she was afraid of spelling. She looked into the street. saw boy she knew, and, calling out to him, she said, Deliver this letter for me, and l will give you a penny The miser heard the offer and said, Give me the penny. and will carry the letter myself" What is more. he did so.-London Captain.

If the average person were asked what was the strongest living thing ii h probable that he would name the uon or some such huge denizen of the forest and would not even think of the massertivc b!valve. But so great is the power possessed by the oyster that to open it force equal to 1,319.5 times the weight of It's shell-less body Is re, Quired. The shell-less Inpet pulls 1884 times it's own weight when in the air and about double when measured in the water. The Mediterranean COG. kle Venus vurrucosa> can exert pull ing power equal to 2,O11 times the weight of it's own body. If the human being possessed strength as great in proportion as that the average man would be able to lift the enormous weight of 2976,0oo pounds, pulling in the same degree as the limpet And If the man pulled in the same proportion. ate degree as the cookie he would sus. tain weight of no less than 3,1o6,5 pounds

Ev. cry one at the table preferred the beef, with the exception of ColoEels Ward and Ian Hamilton. who ostentat.ously carved generous slices from the "horse- desh." The dinner was nearly over when one of the servants whisper ed @ communication to Ward. Up he sprang

The object is to check the tranSferation of moisture by offering sS small q surface as pos sible tn the dry air For the same rea- son the roots of desert plants usually run deep into the soil so that they can suck up all the available moisture In some instances the leaves assume a vertical position and thus avoid the direct rays of the burning desert sun.

A Elqhtina "super."

The following little gem was one of the experiences of Mir. Benson, the shakespearean actor:
 MT. Benson made professional visit to Dublin, and the rehearsals included the due training of a body of stage assistants to represent the hurried ly retracting supporters of Richard "Crook back" when that monarch sue cumbed to the onslaught of Richmond on the field of Bosworth. On the night of the first performance of the tragedy the army that was to fly stubbornly refused to leave the field or to ac knowledge being vanquished, but turn. ing upon the forces of Richmond gave them severe drubbing. Nothing could be found to tame them to proper submission till one of the rank and file said:

his cigar, lay down on the line in front
Of the engine.
He announced that he would remain
