Such trivial things make up the
tragedies of modern life.
The day before yesterday was
Dicks birthday. 1t was also a legal
holiday.
Dick was still away and had evil
IDENTIFY forgotten all about his birth
day, for he had said nothing about it
in any one of his few kilograms.
Father Waverly, however, seemed to
be getting along very well, he was no
better, but he seemed no worse; Jack
was well enough to help Mary an
hour or two a day at the shop; Aunt
Mary was still with her friends at her
own house, so l thought would sur
prise Dick on his birthday.
He wired me he had changed his
plans a little and would be in Cincin-
natl for a day or two. l decided l
would take the sleeper down and sur
prise him in the early morning before
he had time to get away to his work.
l had just finished my new suit
which had braided very elabOriHely.
I had it made at a little tailOr's that
a friend recommended and he let me
do all the hand work" on it myself,
so it was not an expensive frock, al
though Eliene tells me it looks quite
as well as hers, which she bought in
New York on her way here and for
which she paid $3.50.
1 was very anxious to show it to
Dick and anticipated much Joy in
showing it to him for the first time
on his birthday. I also baked him
cake after an old recipe Of my moth
er's and decorated it with his name
and date of his birth.
brought him a half dozen pair
of silk socks with ties to match and
set out on my journey with a glad
heart.

Mr.. Edie. You must not say such
things of Dick to Madge. But just

husband with my sudden appearance
when he is out of town."
Good girl" said Edie, enthusiast.
ticaIly, perhaps had better ask you
to marry me now and make sure that
l shall have a wife who is discretion
itself"
This is so sudden" said MoIlie
dimphng, "but l am very glad, al
though have to break your heart by
refusing, that you agree with me that
discretion is one of the best qualities
a wife can have, especially when she
is discreet in not letting her husband
Know how much she knows about
him and how much more she sus-
pects."
The conversation rather startled
me for it had never entered my mind
that DICK might not be delighted to
see me.
However, l dismissed the thought.
Of course he would be glad to see me.

proposal and its laughing answer.

Old Measurement, Of Time.

Sand glasses for measuring time
were made as soon as the art OF
blowing glass had been perfected by
the people of Byzantium. These
glasses were used for all sorts OF
purposes, for cooking and for making
speeches, but their most important
use was at sea In order that ones
position at sea might be figured, 1t
was important in those early days to
know the vessels speed. The earliest
method was to throw over a heavy
piece of wood of shape that resisted
being dragged through the sea, and
with string tied to it. The string
had knots in it and the block of wood
was called log. The knots were SO
arranged that when one of them ran
through ones fingers in half minute
measured by sand glass IT indicated
that the vessel was going at the speed
of one nautical mile in an hour.

Dogs Last Hours indefinitely Post

Say His Prayers.

A little dog, unlicensed, had been
found in the streets and taken to the
pound He was an affectionate animal
and greatly endeared himself to all
about the place. They called him
Chum, and he joyfully responded
whenever his name was spoken. AS
the days passed, other poor, homeless
dogs we're put to death Finally came
Chum's last day of grace, and no one
had come to claim him.
The next morning dawned, and the
man who was to kill Chum called him
into the yard. Chum danced and
wagged his tail, no doubt thinking
something good was in store for him
The man then said, We'll, Chummy,
your time has come. You'd better say
your prayers" a.,
Immediately the little forepaws
we're crossed, the little head bowed
and Chum said his prayers. AS the
little body was still in this attitude OF
reverence a step was heard. The at
tendant looked up and saw the super
intendent standing there. There were
tears in the eyes Of each.
Chum is still living; but instead OF
being nobody's dog he is now every

HAD RIGHT BREAKFAST IDEA
In Days When overeatInu Was Com
mon, EngIIshman's Menu Was
Worthy Of Praise.

Queen Elizabeth, 1t lie said, ate sew
eral kinds Of salt fish, and sometimes
beef and mutton for breakfast, and
then topped OF with aSgood deal of wine
and ale OF course, she lived in the
days before tea and coffee and choco-
late we're used in England-hence the
alcoholic beverage for breakfast. Most
OF Elizabeth's subjects ate as grossly
at breakfast as she did, and 1t is our
habit to believe that there were no
old-time advocates of the light break
fast which most of us have come to &C
cept as the normal one today.
But at the time Of Elizabeth there
lived one Dr. Tobias Venner who was
an ardent advocate OF the light break
fast In fact, good old Doctor Venner
advocated no breakfast at all for those
whose work in life was not especially
active. To those whose work was
active Doctor Venner was somewhat
lenient and advised little breakfast
Says he:
'If any man desire a.light, norishing
and comfortable breakfast, l know
none better than a couple Of poached
eggs, seasoned with little sauce and
few corns of pepper, eating there
with little bread and butter, and
drinking after good draught of claret
wine.'
Substitute coffee for claret wine and
you have a breakfast which a physi-
clan of the day might recommend to a
man who has been overeating.

You can buy pullets and chickens for

from the cold and fog OF his native
London. He decided to try Antioch.
This Englishman lived In the lap OF

According to the Ashland Clipper a

which seemed to be the signal for the
stalled ruralite to heave another stone.

Ambulances.

Ambulances date from the closing
years of the eighteenth century. Prior
to that time surgical assistance did
not reach the battlefield till the day
after the engagement, or later, when,
to large proportion of the wounded,
1t was of no avail About 1892 Larrey
introduced the flying field hospitals,
capable of moving from place to place
with speed, like the flying artillery
of the time. Nobly assisted by Napo-
leon, Larrey brought his system to a
fair degree of perfection. It was not
until the great Civil war in the United
States, however, that the ambulance
system reached thorough organiZa
ton. Since then the system has, OF
course. received many important i'm
provements.

in 1887, long before the society was
ever thought about, was one Sir VIII

Of Rumsey, Hampshire, England. That
he is worthy of canonization As the
patron saint Of the order finds proof
In his last will and testament, wherein
he says, foreseeing the many evils
that may arise from injudiciOus gifts:
"As for beggars by trade and election,
I give them nothing. As for impOtents
by the hand Of God, the public ought
to maintain them. As for those who
compassionate the sufferings of any
object, let them relieve themselves by
relieving such sufferers. Z.

His Estate Was Amerigo Vespueei'

His Estate Was Amerigo Vespucers
Amedeo Bassi, the Chicago grand
opera tenor, has an estate near Flor
ence, Italy, which once belonged to
Amerigo Vespucci. The villa, known
as La Sfacciata" is mentioned in the
history of Florence as far back as
1406. When the villa came into the
possession of the artist his wife or
dered extensive repairs and altera
tons. The grand salon is remarkable
for its mural decorations and its
magnificent collections of medieval
arms from Flanders, France and
Italy. Signor Bassi goes in for farm
ing in an amateur way, and has plant.

and large number of American fruit
