A Cure That Faltered.

Samuel L. Clemens used to relate on the lecture platform a comedy of courtship that might well have served to illustrate his dictum that there are three kinds of funny stories-the witty story, which is French; the comic story, which is English, and the hu- morous story, which is American-and that the latter Is the only hard kind to tell. He recounted how young swain was rejected simply because of his embarrassing impeachment of speech, and how friend counscled his taking the whistling cure-wheneyer he felt q disposition to stutter just whistle. He tried 1t, and with such surprising success that in Q very few weeks he sought his lady to announce his com Dlete recovery. Unfortunately the eX- citement of the occasion proved too much, and those who have heard Mark Twain will recall how he would stand trembling on the platform, earnestly stuttering out of one side of his mouth and conscientiOusly whistiing out of the other, until his audience fairly groveled in mirth.-Washington Star.

Ape tho Three Monkeys.

In Japan almost every house has q statue of three monkeys. The hands of one are over his eyes, those of an- other are over his ears, and those of the third are over his mouth. See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, is the interpretation of them.
 There are great men in the world, but there are few great men who talk much. When they do talk they do not utter idle words, hence little evil creeps into their speech. There are loved men in the world, generous and pitytng, but they have no time to listen to gos- sip and evil communications There are other men who see evil, not through morbid curiosity, but with an eye to It's correction; nor do they impute evil and view with suspicion all human &C., tons except their own.
 Evil communications, seeing evil, hearing evil, speaking evil, corrupt hu- manlty. There are many who can af- ford to ape the three monkeys.-Phila- delphia Ledger.

 AGED SUFFERER

Mrs. Barbara Jaudos, who was stricken by paralysis several weeks ago, and had been helpless ever since, passed away quietly yester- day afternoon at 4:45 o'clock, at the age of 76 years. She was alone with her husband. Capt. Jandos, at the time of her death.
 Mrs. Jandos was a native of Bohemia and Was married to Capt. Jandos in 1860 at Elgin, III.

Husks of the ProdieaI Son.

It appears that the "husks" (siliquoe In Latin) which were fed to swine in the east and to which the prOdigal son was finally reduced were nothing more nor less than the large, podlIke fruit of the carob tree, whose botanical name Is Ceratonia siliQua. This plant per tains to the pea family, and the husks are sometimes nearly a foot in length.
 These husks contain very hard seeds resembling beans, which may be eaten with relish, although one would soon tire of them as a sole article of diet Occasionally these husks are to be found In England and this country in confectioners' shops, where they arc known as "St Johns bread"
 In the east in the old days the plant was regarded with disfavor, not be- cause 1t was thought to be unpalatable, but because of its association with swine. Together with the acorns of q species of oak called Quercus aegilops, 1t served as the principal food of pigs and hOgs.-Every Week.

Tall Hata of the Paet.

In spite of statements made to the contrary, tall hats were invented long before 1913. A MT. Toft of Tottenham, who died In 1767, left $50 to the gov ernors of the Tottenham free grammar school, the interest of which was to be devoted to the purchase of three tall hats as prizes for the three best boys.
 The hats used to be purchased from q natter in Bishopsgate street named Greenway for 24 shillings. But in 1911 he informed the governor that duty of 1 shilling each had been imposed and the cost raised to 27 shillings. The duty was again raised to shillings each and in 1913 to 2s. Cd. The duty was afterward repealed, but by that time the governors were purchasing Bibles instead of hats for the boys Pail Mall Gazette.
