arIde,a Love of a cIax PIpe.

Rather than give up smoking her cherished clay pipe an Irish bride named Johanna Wood has left the workhouse at Faversham, Kent Her husband, who was also an inmate of the workhouse, has left with her.
 With a careless disregard of the fact that they were both practically destitute, the man and the woman, whose ages are respectively sixty-two and forty-nine, were married on De cember Il. The honeymoon was spent at the workhouse.
 "Mrs. Wood" stated one of the workhouse officials yesterday, "seem- ed to find her greatest source of pleas ure in tobacco. She smoked clay pipe and would not have parted with It for anything. On being taxed with smoking :n the workhouse she said: I cannot do without my pipe; have smoked since I was little girl She was told that she must either give up smoking or leave the workhouse. She elected to take the latter course and left with her husband. d."-London Daily Mail.

An the sams to HIm.

When Clifford Pinchot and Miles Poindexter were up in Alaska last summer, they had guide who was a hearty eater. He ate all the time he was cooking, continued to eat while Pinchot and Poindexter were at their meal, and would still be eat ing long after the others had ceased picking their teeth.
 The guide was particularly fond of grouse, which are moderately plentiful in some parts of Alaska. Pinchot and Poindexter would eat a grouse apiece, but the guide would consume four or five, with apparent relish Senator Poindexter felt that the thing to do was to shoot more grouse and give the guide his fill. They didn't get a shot at any grouse right away, but Poindexter kept in practice by bring ing down couple of sea gulIs. A sea gull is about as delicate a morsel as a turkey buzzard, or a harpy. Later in the day Pinchot saw some feathers scattered about the camp.
 What happened to those gqlIs?" he inquired.
 "Oh," replied the guide with a yawn, T got tired seein' 'em around and ] just ct 'em."

Matters of the Memory.

Savages have good memories. They rarely make false or erroneous mo. ton. They have mastered their sur roundings and there are no new things to distract their attention. They keep their memory cells un- crowded. The civilized man is at great disadvantage. He sees some new thing every hour. His brain cells are a veritable. dancing, whirling, seething nest of memories. It is not any great wonder that he cannot re- call the one he needs just when he needs it.
