Auuo'a Practical Side.

It may not be generally known that
Victor Hugo used to draft the adver-
tisements of his own books, instead Of
leaving the task to his publishers. His
correspondence with his Belgian pub
fishers gives the following example Of
the great novelist's advertising style:
"After the middle ages, the present
time: Such is the subject Of Victor
Hugo's double study. What he did
for Gothic art in 'Notre Dame de Paris
that he has done for the modern world
in Les Miserables.' The two books
figure in his scheme Of work as two
mirrors rejecting the whole human
life" An encouraging example to
those young authors who cannot make
up their minds how much modesty is
enjoined by the best literary tradi-
tions.-London Globe.

The housekeeper, most dependable,
valuable helper, of more than average
good sense and judgment, said: Mrs.
Black, If you'll let me can keep your
children from having whooping cough.
I've kept lots of children from having
It, but I wouldn't do it without telling
you first"
"Well, Martha, what is it?''
"You catch live mouse and kill and
dress it and stuff it and bake 1t and
feed it to the children. 1t isn't bad :"
take, and Of course they don't know
what it ia. That would spoil the
charm"
To my friends exclamation Of horror
she replied with conviction, 1--WE given
It to lots of children, and never one Of
them had whooping cough."-Mary
