Queer Pronunciations.

There are many names of places in England that puzzle the stranger. Happisburgh, in Norfolk, for instance, Is pronounced Hazeboro, Abergavenny simply drops syllable and becomes Abervenny. and 1t Is alleged that St. Neots sounds more like Shoots than anything else. Cirencester seems to vary from Sister to Sizeter In Suf folk Waldringfield Is "Wunnerfur and Chelmondiston "Chimston," while in the adjoining county of Norfolk Hun stanton Is "Hunston," and in the west country Badgeworthy is "Badgery" and Cornwood "kernood" Hunting donshire claims the purest English, but they call Papworth "Parpor." And not far away is another village of beauty The motorist turned upon rough road and asked the intelligent laborer where 1t would take him. That road,' said the honest country man, wiping his brow, will take you to Ell, sir" The courageous motor, ist went on and found Ellsworth, which Is pronounced "Elser" Manchester Guardian.

Don'ts.

Don't attempt to punish all your enc
 nies at once. You can't do large business with small capital. Don't say 'I told you so." Two to one you never said word about it. Don't worry about another mans business
 A little selfishness Is sometimes com. mendable. Don't imagine that you can correct all the evils in the world
 A grain of sand is not prominent in 6 desert Don't mourn over fancted grievances: Blde your time, and real sorrow will come. Don't throw dust in your teachers eyes It will only in Jrre the pupil Don't worry about the fee crop. Keep cool and you will have enough. Don't borrow coach to please your wife Better make her a little sulky. Don't ina zine that every thing is weakening. Butter Is strong in this market Don't publish your acts of charity. The Lord will keep the account straight Don't color for a living It is sim. ply dyeing by inches.-Mark Twain.

The Dream of the Key,

Some small article had been lost-l forget now what; let us say a key-be. longing to one of two sisters who were travelling together. It could nowhere be found. But one night one of the sisters dreamed that she saw the key in the pocket of her travelling bag She told this dream on waking to the other And have you looked in the pocket" the sister asked. No, I have not" said she, flor the very good reason that there is no pocket in my travel ing bag" Well" said the other, "there is a pocket in mine l will just have look there on the chance" And there the key was found The infer ence Is that the dreamer had seen with the eye of sense. though not with the eye of observation, the key put Into the pocket Even when the key was so found she had no recollection of seeing 1t placed there, but the brain ton. In course of sleep it had stum bled on that record, and by good luck the sleeper on awaking chanced to re member the mental operation that had taken place during sleep. It is a sin gular and almost alarming reflection that our brains are stored with count less such records of which we know nothing nor ever shall know unless the association of ideas or some peculiar mental state brings them to our no
