NOT AN ORIGINAL DISCOVERY
Writer Thought That He Had Found
Jones, But He Was Very Late to
Get In the Field.

Several years ago ! wrote an essay
dred Worst Books" For a place in
the list l selected a book in my H.
brary entitled Poems on Several Oc-
casions, published in 1749, by one
Jones, a poet whose name was un-
known to me till perused his verse.
The pages were so fresh that l cher
ished the belief that / was the only
reader in a century and half. l had
the pride Of possession in Jones.
1t was some time after that l came
across, in Walpole's letters, an allusion
to my esteemed poet. 1t seems that
Colley Cibber, when he thought he was
dying, wrote to the prime minister
recommending the bearer, Mr.. Henry
Jones, for the vacant laurel. Lord
Chesterfield will tell you more of him. y
l was never more astonished in my
life than when l visualized the situa-
ton, and saw my friend Jones "the
bearer" of a demand for the reversion
to the laureateship.
1t seemed that Walpole was equally
surprised, and when he next met Lord
Chesterfield the eager question was
Who is Jones, and why should he be
recommended for the position Of poet
laureate? Lord Chesterfield answered
"a better poet would not take the
post and worse ought not to have
it." 1t appears that Jones was ar
Irish bricklayer and had made it his
custom to work a certain number oi
| hours according to an undertaking
rule. He would lay layer of brick
and then compose line of poetry, an,
so on till his days task was over
This accounts for the marvellous even
ness Of his verse.
This was but small discovery bu
1t gave real pleasure, for should
meet my Lord Chesterfield he and
would at once have a common interest

Scotland, collapsed and fell to the
ground, fortunately without injuring
any person. For several centuries the
Kelwining church, or abbey, had been
regarded as one Of the architectural
gems of Scotland and its steeple was
remarkable both for it's height and its
artistic design. The church dated
back to about the middle of the
twelfth century. In 1860 the edifice
suffered considerable damage at the
hands of jealous reformers, who, fired
by the sermons of John Knox, plum
dered and laid in ruins many of the
abbeys and monasteries throughout
Scotland. These acts of vandalism
formed part Of their campaign to
supplant Roman. Catholicism by
Professionalism, which they finally sue
ceeded in bringing about through an

CLING TO ANCIENT CUSTOMS
Among the Bedoulns Marriage Is Cele-
brated Much as 1t Was
Centuries Age.

A Bedouin bridegroom, on his we'd
ding day, must make his bride pres
ent of a silk handkerchief filled with
nuts, sweetmeats, little sugar cakes,
and marzipan, also five silver rings for
her fingers. An old pair of tellik
(Arab shoes) are purposely placed in
the room in which the lovers meet
He seizes one shoe, and she the other,
and whichever of them can hit the
other first will! be the ruler of the
household after. This is looked upon
as an unfailing sign, and there may
be something in it.
For seven days after the wedding
the bridegroom enjoys himself, wan
dering through the gardens of the
oasis, doing no work, always accom-
panied by group of his friends. But
on the seventh day he must keep a
sharp lookout, for on that day his
friends will try suddenly to play a
trick on him. If he escapes them, we'll
and good; then he can run to his
house and be safe. If not, they snatch
his clothes from him and beat him.
which seems a poor return for the
feasting and entertainment. But 1t Is
custom, and that Is the law of the
Medes and Persians to these people
who will not omit the smallest cere
mony handed down to them by their
forefathers.

SOME FREAKS OF GRATITUDE
Woman Found She Had Promised
Larger Reward Than She Could Be-

At New York subway station re-
Gently a woman lost $500 diamond
ring, which was duly restored to her
upon the advertised promise to pay
the finder reward of 5000. When the
ring was taken to the owner by the
finder she found that she had prom
ised more than she could fulfill with
cash. So she had to pawn the ring to
make good
This is not by any means solitary
case of odd recompensing incidents. A
few months ago Philadelphia woman
lost a pet dog. She advertised for
two weeks daily, offering a sum out Of
all proportion to the worth Of the anil
NAL according to current dog rates.
Her pet was brought to her door one
morning and the reward claimed be-
fore delivery. She was unable to pay
and was in tears when the finder re-
fused to accept her promise to pay
later as reason enough for leaving the
dog.
A compromise was reached at last.
She signed paper relinquishing all
rights to the dog for a period of six
months. The animals temporary own
er entered him in every dog show
within radius of thousand miles
and was reported to have made a tidy
sum in prizes.
The daughter of Western railroad
president was boating on Lake Michi-
gan last season, when, In exchanging
seats there was an upset, and she was
in peril for a time. A young fellow
jumped from nearby launch and res
cued her. Her father effusively
thanked the rescuer and asked him
how much cash he might have the
privilege of bestowing upon such q
brave man.
The young fellow Indignantly re-
fused to consider the value of his serv.
ice in dollars and cents When pressed
to name some other reward he finally
made it known that he'd sighed for q
pass on the presidents railroad all his
young life. He would take an annual
pass, but that was all. When the pres
| ident explained that it was not Lawful
to issue him one, he just said: "Al
right, good-by," and started off. But
the president induced him to come
back, and found way out Of the diff
Guilty by giving him a job on the rail
road in order that he might lawfully
| use a pass.
