BLIND TO GOOD LUCK.

Fable Of the Weary Farmer and the
IA ~ Golden piow.:s ssasa,
There was once a Benevolent Fairy
who was accustomed to doing Good
Deeds in whimsical Ways. Ono day
she was flying across the country to
attend a meeting Of the A. 0. B. r.
when she noticed Farmer lab0ringI I'm
the Fields. His horse was Attenuated
and Decepit. and his pillow was Heavy
and Old Fashioned. Often he would
pause and wipe the sweat from his
brow. Plainly he was having q Hard
Time. Sxsssss sEsssSsH s
The Benevolent Fairy watched him
a moment and observed his Haggard
Look and his general air Of Misery.
Suddenly an Idea came to her-tO
make this man Rich, so that he would
no longer have to delve and struggle
to exc out Bare Living. So she
swooped down and touched the plow
with her wand-she was, Of course, in
visible-and instantly it was changed
to Solid Gold. Then with an amused
but kindly backward glance the Benev-
client Fairy went on her way.
A year later, remembering the &C.
currence, she flew over to see how the
Farmer was enjoying his Good For
tune. She found him in the Fields,
blowing laboriously,; and if anything
he and his surroundings looked Mean
er and More Miserable than they had
before. Much surprised. the Fairy

murmur:

The Benevolent Fairy eyed him Pity

pillow with her wand, and 1t again be-

A Well Deserved snub.

On one occasion an English gentle
man called to see Lord Westmorelandl
on particular business. He was at
breakfast and, receiving him with his
usual urbanity, asked the object of his
visit. The gentleman said that he felt
somewhat aggrieved, as he had brought
an official letter Of Introduction to him
from the foreign Office and, having
learned that his lordship had given
great dinner the night before, was sur
prised and hurt at receiving no invita-
ton. Lord Westmoreland exclaimed,
with his usual heartiness: God bless
me, sir, / am really quite distressed.
I think l received the letter Of which
you speak. I will send for it." Ac-
cordingly the letter was brought to
him, and on reading 1t he said to the
stranger: ''Ah, / thought so! There,
sir, is the letter, but there Is no men
ton of dinner In it." On which the
gentleman rose and backed out of the
room in confusion.

the Boston merchant that there must

other articles besides nails. He was

The Property Man Knew.

An English actor tells good story
of the old days Of the touring f1tup
companies. They were at Oldham
playing a melodrama called Current
Cash." One Of the properties essential
to the piece was light rowing scull,
with which the hero had to push him
self off into the stream. When the
company reached Oldham the oar was
missing, but the property man prom
ised to have one ready for the even
ing's performance. says the Pail Mall
Gazette. That afternoon. with evident
pride, he produced from the sacred re-
cesses of his room real human skull.
and when it was pointed out to him
that 1t was hardly what was required
he declared in naughty tones:
eff that skulls good enough for
Hamlet it ought to be good enough
for a piece like Current Cash."

And keep on adding more.

And look our scrapbooks DER.
Then there's that little call to pay,
A book to be returned;
Storm windows to be put away,
A ton of rubbish burned.
There's little Johnny's car to mend
And MabeI's doll to patch,

LibsIina Old England.

According to General Pillet Of
France, the author Of "L'angleterre
vue Londres ct dams ses Proviaces,"
published in 1915, wife murderers q
hundred years ago generally went
scot free in England. In this engag
ing work the author says that "the
murder of a married woman by her
husband is hardly recognized as a
crime. If by some rare chance the
guilty husband is brought to justice
he is bound to be acquitted. This ac-
counts for the heavy death rate among
women In England. Most English
men of fifty have been married at
least three times" Pillet bad been
prisoner of war in England and pub
nshed this work in revenge. 1t was
30 full of Hbelous statements that its
circulation was forbidden by the
French government, and the few
copies available brought very high
prices.
Apparently the English did not con-
slider the work very dangerous, as a
copy was secured for the British mu-
scum.
