VALUE QUEER RELICS HIGHLY
LARGE Sums Have Frequently Been
Paid for Articles That Many
Would Call GreWsome.

It is not every man, not every hero
worshiper, who would esteem the
tooth of his hero of more value than
diamonds. There is a ring belonging
to an English nobleman, in which the
place of honor, formerly occupied by
a diamond, is given to tooth that
once diI duty in a human jaw.
This tooth cost no less than three
thousand six hundred and fifty dol
lars; but it was the tooth of Sir Isaac
Newton. A relic collector sold 1t al
auction in 1916, and the noblemar
who bought it gave it the place of a
diamond in his favorite ring.
Another tooth, which so far excites
the veneration Of hero worshipers as
to be able to hold a court Of its OWE
and to draw from long distances 8
small host of followers, is one that
was originally hidden behind the lips
of Victor Hugo. It is kept at his
former residence in q glass case bear
ing the inscription, Tooth drawn fror:
the Jaw of Victor Hugo by the dentist
on Wednesday, August II, 1871, in the
gardens attached to the house Of
Madame Koch, at three o'clock in the
afternoon"
The wig Of literary man appears
to have been even more sought after
than his teeth. That which Sterne
wore while writing "Tristram Shandy
was sold soon after the writer's death
for ten thousand dollars; and tbs
favorite chair of Alexander Pope
brought five thousand dollars.
The most extravagant instance Of
literary hero worship is that of well
known Englishman, who constantly
wears a small locket attached to a
chain round his neck a part of the
charred skull of Shelley.-The Sunday
Magazine.

Chance for the Reformer.

The Chicago Evening Post opens up
vital question in ethics by wondering
how soon the time will come when the
POSTMASTER at banquet will feel at
liberty to squelch the speaker who has
overrun his time limit Here is a
chance for those earnest souls who
spend their leisure and other peoples
time by organizing societies for the
prevention Of things. We believe we
echo the soulful sentiments Of nearly
every experienced bon vivant in lay.
ing down the dictum that a proper
banquet should be one-fourth oratory
and three-fourths gustatory. When the
proportions are reversed-as usually
happens-there Is JOY in neither phase
of the things, and life becomes howl.
ing wilderness and a dreary waste.
Every banquet speaker should be
placed on an automatic platform
which would either collapse and drop
him into coal chute or gently wheel
him out of the dining room at the end
of 20 minutes. A banquet ought to be
something more than an endurance
contest.

BROTHERS MET As PAUPERS
Living Together Ten Years in English
Poorhouse, KinshlP Is Re-
yeaicd.

Two old paupers, who had been In
st. Olave's workhouse, Bermondsey,
one for ten and one for twelve years,
were smoking their pipes in the exer-
else yard when the conversation turn
ed on a street which was then being
pulled down, says the London Weekly
Telegraph.
"Ah!" said one, that's the street
where | was born" -
"Were you? Why, so was Il" said
the other. where did you live?
my mother kept the little corner
shop when l was boy"
why, so did mine," exclaimed the
other.
The men started at each other.
You've made a mistake. My mother
kept that shop-my mother, Anne
Brown" Then the men rose and look
ed into each others eyes. "Then you
must be Jack?" And you must be
Bill?" And the old men-one seventy
and the other seventy-three-g rasped
hands, knowing each other as broth
ers for the first time during their ten
years of fellow paupership.
This is the explanation, Jack, the
elder, went to sea when he was fif-
teen, and from that time troubled his
family no more. He couldn't write,
and he didn't find it convenient to
call in at Bermondsey, as he was new.
er near it. The second brother, when
he was nineteen, enlisted, deserted
and re-enlisted under false name
Under the latter he married, and when
he became a pauper he went to the
workhouse with it. The brothers had
net seen each other since one was
fifteen and the other twelve.
That is how they came to sit side
by side day by day in the workhouse
for ten years, without the slightes;
suspicion that the same mother bore
them both.

Old Houses.

A house at Winkel acquired for a
public museum is said to be the old
est dwelling in Germany, having been
built for the archbishop of Mayence
in $50. According to some authori-
ties the Fighting Cocks inn, st. AL
bans, which claims to be the oldest in
habited house in England, beats even
this record, having been built as a
boathouse to the monastery founded
at st. Adams by King Offa about 795.
1t has, however, not served as an inn
so long as some other buildings, such
as the Saracen's Head, Newark, the
Old Green Man, Erdington, the Seven
Stars, Witty Grove, Manchester, and
the Bell Finedon.-London Chronicle.

Uncle Ike to Dear Bertha.

Do you know Dear Bertha" or
"Uncle Ike?" If so you are. in po-
sition to do one or both favor and
incidentally aid the employees OF the
Winsted postofflce in the performance
Of their duties. There is card at the
Office for Bertha, and the message that
it contains is such that Postmaster
Glynn and his clerks are anxious to
have it reach its destination. The
message is as follows:

Stevenson on the Bible,

Frederic Harrison, in an address de-
livered many years ago to the Bodley
Literary society in Oxford, concluded
with these words: IF you care tc
know the best that our literature can
give in simple, noble prose-mark
learn, and inwardly digest the Holy
Scriptures in the English tongue" 1t
is interesting to learn what Robert
Louis Stevenson said regarding the
same theme. In recent lecture on
the author Of Kidnapped" by Oil
plant Smeaton, that well-known critic
and writer tells us how on one occa
sion, in the old Swanston days, his
friend said to him: Il say, Smeaton,
have you ever read finer prose than
in Ephesus and Philippians" Accord.
ing to the same authority, "R. L. 81
knew whole chapters of the Testament
by heart, but his supreme favorite
among the sacred writings was the
last fifteen chapters of the Book Of
Isaiah. In the Bible Stevenson found,
says Mr. Smeaton, the magic Of the
finest prose-Westmins Gazette.

GUM CHEWING AN OLD HABIT
Red Indians Are Said Thus to Have
Quenched Their Thirst In Fiji
teenth Century.

Gum chewing in the United States
appears to be general habit, as it
would take quite a few gum cheWers
to use up what is manufactured. More
than 80 million sticks of gum Is the
annual output Of American factories
All this stuff Is made of chicle
which comes from gum tree in the
tropics, the importation Of chicle into
the United States figuring up two mil
lion dollars year The chicle bust
ness has become big industry in the
republics to the south. The gum tree
is tapped very much the same as the
rubber tree.
Spanish explorers found the Indians
of this hemisphere chewing gum tt
quench their thirst away back in the
fifteenth century, and they reported
that it relieved exhaustion; but it was
1876 before gum chewing became q
habit among the nations, so at least
the gum makers say, being guided In
their opinions by the statistical rec
ords. Still, the oldest inhabitants say
they always. had gum. Resin or some
thing else must have been chewed be
fore the modern gum factory brought
out substitute that was better liked
Since that time the demand for thi:
commodity has increased to such ar
extent that importing firms have beer
obliged to search the markets and ex
plot the growing Of the tree in order
to obtain a supply sufficient to NEE
existing requirements.
