remembered as the victim Of an ex-
traordinary practical Joke played on
him by Dean Swift.
Against Partridge's almanac for 1IoS
the dean published a rival almanac,
predicting Partridge's death on March
80, about IL at night, OF raging fever.
And on March 50 appeared 4 pam
phlet giving an account Of the alma
mac makers death. with his confession
that he was an impostor. This was
followed by Swift's "Elegy on the
Death OF Mr.. Partridge" which so
completed the deception that the Sta
tioners' company struck Partridge OF
the rolls and applied for an injunction
against the publication OF almanacs in
his name.
Partridge advertised that he was
not only alive. but was also alive upon
March 70" Bur no one believed him.

KITCHEN TEACHES PARLoR.
By EDWIN A. NYE.

KATY and Hilda and Lena work in
your kitchen and in the kitchens or
your neighbors.
If you want to learn something in
teresting ask the postmaster OF your
town how much money these house
maids send during the year TO their
kin across the water.
You will be surprised.
The money goes by registered letter
10 the old country to be used in bring
ing father or mother or sister or broth
er TO this country. or TO pay doctors
or undertaker's bills, or TO buy com
forts for the old folks.
In saving this money the girls do
not regard their enforced fruSality as
4 sacrifice, but as a joy.
Compare the filial solicitude of these
strong muscled, deep chested. rosy
faced lasses with the ungrateful, even
heartless, conduct Of some native born
girls.
Is there something in the American
atmosphere that breeds insurrection
under the rooftree?
Certain il is that the old time family
discipline, respect for parental au-
thority. reverence and ready obedi-
ence are lacking in many families to-
day.
Maybe it is logical reaction.
Possibly the stern custom of for
mer generation was too severe. PCssi-
bly,. Anyway there is apparent nova
days a deplorable loosening of disci-
pline, disposition to push the parents
into a corner, a disregard of parental
authority.
In some places there is the open
sneer at parental direction.
Is 1t not SO?
Who that reads the newspapers is
not shocked at the frequent stories OF
ingratitude of children, or Worse
abandonment or abuse Of parents
The easy manner of loosening family
ties is appalling.
This is not vapid pessimism.

the project was undertaken, and
came astonishingly near sue

them, and only five rounds

demand, for the place was
strongly fortified and sarrisoned
by 1900 men. So the little band
withdrew up the river a few
miles, where it encountered
detachment of British soldiers.
A sharp fight ensued, during
which the leader of the Amer

A notable dwarf. who had long
lease of life over parts Of two centu-

told AS boy of fifteen, when he
was Just one inch higher than two
foot rule. Borulwaski was presented
to the Empress Maria Theresa, who
was so charmed by his good looks and
grace that she seated him on her lap
and gave him a hearty kiss. To the
queens question as to what he con-
sidered the most interesting sight in
Vienna the dwarf replied, What l
now behold. so little a man on the lap
of so great a lady" This speech rem
dered the little fellow a great favor

He became a special favorite of
Stanislaus IL, who took him to Eng
land and introduced him to George
Ill, and for more than half century
Borulwaski made his home at the
English court.
This dwarf, who at his tallest was
a yard and three inches, had a sister
whose head just reached her big broth
er's shoulders Borulwaski was not
only handsome and courtly man. but
a scholar of repute. He lived in five
reigns, and when he died, lacking only
two years Of reaching the century
mark, he was laid to rest in Durham,
