SOME FAMILY, THAT!

From the New Orleans Picayune.
According to Wilmington. Del. dis
patch, there is patriarch in that vicinity
who on Christmas Day entertained at
dinner his thirty-two children, besides a
bevy Of grandchildren and great-grand-
children too numerous to mentions 1t
took eight large turkeys to provide the
piece de resistance for this memorable
dinner. besides there were the customary
trimmings in equal abundance.
The paterfamilias who gathered this
numerous flock around him is no weak
ling. He has been married three times
and led his last wife to the altar nine
years ago, when he was sixty-five. since
which he has added seven children, in
cluding twins to the family circle. Such
a man would have been given a pension
in the good old days when kings and
princes considered big families as the
mainstay Of the State.
DIR. Osler might take courage from this
exhibition Of vitality and virility and re-
wise his theory that men who reach
sixty should be chloroformed. Ex-Presi-
dent Roosevelt will also find in this big
family a powerful argument against raee
suicide.

Curious ideas some people have Of
patents" New York cpal dealer said
"A man came in here the other day and
wanted to know il we ever heard of
boring holes in the logs we sell for open
wood fires, because. he said, IL the idea
was new he was going to get patent on
it.
Il asked him what might be the use
of boring holes in the logs; to hang
them up? He said every one liked to see
the blaze in an open wood fire and when
1t got low they polled 1t or put on fresh
logs just to see some more flame. II
you bored an inch hole through the mid
die Of log and put 1t on the fire with the
hole vertical 1t would form a kind of
chimney, and you would have q cheer
ful little Jet Of flame coming up through
it until the log was completely burned
away.
II tried 1t when got home that night,
and sure enough he was right. But the
