Preachinn and Practice.

In Gladstone Lady Dorothy Neville
found a conversationalist after her OWL
heart. She sang his praises many
times in her "reminiscences. and once
she told this anecdote of his methods
of self protection at public gatherings:
II remember his talking about the
safety of the times and how public
men could now go unguarded every
where. while he was sitting at a din
ner table with two detectives provided
by Scotland Yard in order to watch
over him standing in the room, while
another was upstairs ready to mix with
the guests 1T the party which was aft
erward to he given. The Grand Old
Mans two guardians at the dinner
were dressed as footmen, one standing
Immediately behind his chair, while
the other took up position directly
opposite on the other side of the table"

at the piano. with his back unsupport-
ed. that his spine was permanently in
jured. He never composed except when
seated at the piano. and he always had
the lights turned out when he was i'm
provising. A public audience unnerved
him to such an extent that he could
not properly interpret the music before
him. Seated in the midst of small
select circle. he easily extemporized
and improvised. He talked" to his
piano whenever he was melancholy.
He thought more of his manservant
and his cat than he did Of his intimate
friends. Chopin had a superstitious

The Actors Triumph.

In 1915 the Boulevarde du Temple
was the heart of the theatrical world
of Paris In the ten theaters that lin
ed that comparatively short thorough
fare so much blood was shed on the
stage every evening at the popular
plays that it was known as the Boule-
varde du Crime.
The audience became so passionate
ly devoted to some Of the characters
interpreted for their pleasure that they
sometimes showed quite fierce hostility
to the actors who had to take parts
inimical to them. One night. for in
stance. BRAND. who had represented
Hudson Lowe in a scene on the island
of St. Helena when Napoleon was i'm
prisOned there. was seized by some
roughs as he left the theater and flung
into the basin of the Chateau d Eau.
This quite delighted him. and he gloat-
ed over it as a triumph when he was
telling the tragic-comic incident the
next day.-BoOkman.

700 Slow

A rather diffidenI young man met a
pretty girl last winter in Bermuda.
He danced with her. he wheeled with
her to hotel for stra wberries and
cream. and he bathed with her in the
pretty blue pool with its lining of azure
tiles.
But he didn't propose. Was he too
bashful? The girl one afternoon in a
tea garden offered to read his future
and, holding his big brown hand in her
slim white one. she murmured as her
finger moved delicately across his
palm:
"This line indicates that before you
lies-happiness."
She paused. with downcast eyes. But
nothing followed. The young man sat
beside her. grinning sheepishly. Her
lip curled in disdain. and she added in
a clear. cold voice:
but this line indicates that you'll
never overtake that future. You're too
slow."-New York Tribune.

blade is bent over a block of wood.

five inches in diameter 1t is then bent
in the opposite direction. Afterward
the blade is struck on an oak block
and tested on sides and edges. Final
ly it is dipped in oil and bent While
it is bent the oil is wiped off. If the
blade is cracked. even though the de-
fects might be otherwise invisible to
the eye, the oil in the minute crevices
will be forced to the surface when the
blade is Strengthened, and the defects
will instantly be revealed by slight
streaks of oil little wider than hair.

as nature can make them, and from the
time they are caught and packed until
they are placed before human beings
