Sir Thomas More,s ttead.

When the wise and witty Sir Thorn
as More was beheaded his head was
stuck on a pole on London bridge,
where 1t was exposed for fourteen
days, much to the grief Of his daugh-
ter, Margaret Roper. who resolved to
secure 1t. Zone day." says Aubrey, "as
she was passing under the bridge, look
ing at her fathers head. she exclaim-
ed: That head has lain many a time In
my lap. Would to God 1t would fall
into my lap as | pass under! She had
her wish, and 1t did fall into her lap"
Probably she had bribed u OF the
keepers OF the bridge to throw 1t over
just as the boat approached. and the
exclamation was intended to avert the
suspicion of the boatmen. At all
events. she got possession of II and pre-
served 1t with great care In a leaden

RIGHT and Left Handed.

A college professor has figured 1t
out that If you are left handed it is a
sign that your ancestors were not
good fighters. says the Kansas City
Journal.
"Most persons are right handed"
says he. only one in every twenty
is left handed. Why are people right
handed? They may have been born
that way. 1t Is true. but why?
"Away back in the beginning the
chief occupation of man was fighting.
In battle he carried a SHE'D In one
hand and a weapon In the other. It
was not much work to- carry the
shield, but the quick action requi ell
by the hand and arm which did the
fighting soon developed TINT arm. IL
also developed the nerves and the half
Of the brain that governed the right
side Of the body. Those who shield
ed their left side. thus protecting the
heart. were the ones who usually
came out victorious. Down through
the ages this selection continued. the
right hand gradually becoming more
proficient"

Deep Grief.

Throughout his career as a newspa-
per reporter the young mans assign
ments had taken him into demonstra-
tive crowds whose periods OF noisy
demonstration 1t was his duty to time.
"Mr. A. finally appearing, the audience
cheered for fifteen minutes" Senator
X. finished his second joke amid laugh
ter that lasted for ten minutes" or AT
the close Of the speech the audience
%applauded wildly for thirteen minutes"
These and similar records OF the pub
lie pulse plentifully adorned nearly ev-
cry story the young man wrote. One
day he was sent to attend the funeral
of a rich and crusty tempered old gen.
tleman whose young wife had notorl-
ously repented her choice. The man
wound up his story of the funeral thus:
'In the silence that ensued the wild
ow wept for sixteen seconds."-Wash-

Tho canny Grocer.

The canny grocer sized up his rus
toner.
She had ordered six strictly fresh
eggs.
He took down the paper bag and, go
ing to the basket. picked them out.
Twisting the top of the bag together,
he handed 1t to the woman, who paid
him and went away.
The canny grocer smiled.
He had given the women seven eggs
when she ordered but six.
He knew that when she reached
home and found she had seven instead
Of six eggs she would be so delighted
with the supposition that she had over
reached him that she would entirely
disregard the fact that six Of the eggs
were storage and one was dubious.

ture.

The first time a boys head is shaved.
usually ut the age Of three or four, the
operation becomes quite a ceremony.
Prayers from the Koran are chanted
and a goat Is tremendously slain.
which seems to be rather unfortunate.
from the goats point Of view. The
barber of the east wears a long, smock
like garment, and round his waist he
fastens a towel. Depending from waist
to feet Is the razor strop. When the
shaving of a customer is completed,
the barber. with a bow. presents him
with a hand glass. No Moslem. how
ever, will look into a glass without first
invoking the name of the prophet, for
fear he might look on his own fea-
lures with undue admiration. As he
returns the glass to the barber the
piece of money in payment Is placed

Discovery Of speed Of LIGHT.

One of the greatest discoveries of
science is due to observation Of the
eclipses Of Jupiter's looms 1t was
found that when the earth was In the
part of its orbit nearest to Jupiter
these eclipses occurred sixteen minutes
earlier than when it was In the far
thermost part, whereas by all rules Of
astronomy they should have occurred
at the same minute each time. 1t was
deduced from this that the light was
not instantaneous and consequently
took sixteen minutes to traverse the
diameter OF the earth's orbit, a dis
lance OF about zoos 00. 900 miles. thus
giving to light a velocity OF $4,000
miles q second, which was accurately
shown later by other experiments
