Bound to Be Unlucky,

A man whose wife has her pet su- perstitions'' confessed recently what happened when he attempted to humor her He owned, and frequently wore, an opal stickpin. The opal is consid. cred an "unlucky" stone. At any rate, whenever anything annoying, distress ing or accidental occurred, the opal was blamed.
 "At last" the husband declared, a business deal in which I ventured small part of my capital went to smash, and of course my wife insisted that the opal was to blame.
 Not everybody connected with the business wore an opal!' my friend said.
 "'No, but one opal was enough re- turned my wife, calmly.
 You know what the constant drip ping of water does to a stone-it wear the stone away. That is precisel what constant nagging will do ;a the common sense of any man. I was convinced in half-hearted way against my own better judgment.
 "So, partly believing, partly disbe- lieviug, I went to jeweler, who hap pened to be a friend of mine, slapped the opal down on his counter, and said: Here, give me anything you choose for this and it is yours. I'm tired of it.
 "I don't want to give you anything for it, he replied, after examining 1t carefully. It's glass
 "I returned home rejoicing, really glad that my gem had proved spuri- ous My wife, however, only shrugged her shoulders and said: But just think how much worse your luck would have been had that opal been genuipe,' '"-Chicago News.

 The news spread that Miss Gertrude Gordon was about to marry and the proud father was asked to tell all about it.
 It was this way" he said "Ot course you all know about the big weddings l gave each of my five mar ried children. There was never any thing like the Gordon weddings. Well, this morning Gertie comes to me and this is what she says to me:
 Pop she says, how much does it cost you every time one of the chil- dren gets married? She meant for the hall and the entertainment. Well, l figured it out and told her $6,0O0.
 Pop says that smart girl to me, how would you like to make $l,000?'
 You're on,' says to Gertie. Show me how
 "Por,' she says, I tell you. You give me s5,0O0 and you keep the $1 ,O0o. l will get married quietly in the house and you don't spend the s6,000.' What answer did l make? What foolish question! I told her to go ahead.
 Miss Gordon is to marry Adolph Rothenberg, a hat manufacturer March 2, in her fathers home, 2026 Seventh avenue.
 '' I tell you,' said Gertie to me, how I think we can spend the s5,000,' | Gordon continued. If my husband buys goods on 30 days notice l can pay the cash and thus make the dis count Then she said that after five years they could have fine tin wed ding in a hall. Now do you wonder that I am happy with such sensible daughter at home? I tell you we are pl oud of her."-New York World.
