Lucky Thirteen.

Once there was man who found fhe number 13 most lucky for him. self. His name was John Hatfield, and he was a soldier in the army of William and Mary. doing guard duty at Windsor castle. One morning he was arrested on charge of having fallen asleep at his post before mid night. The court condemned him to die in spite of-or possibly because of the fact that he declared he had heard the great cathedral clock strike thir- teen times when it tolled off the hour of midnight. After the death sentence had been passed a score of persons came forward with the statement that on the night in question the clock had actually blundered in it's count, includ- ing the single stroke for the quarter hour with its hour stroke. It was re- ported to the king. upon investigation, that the striking apparatus was weak. and John Hatfield was promptly par doned.-St. Louis Globe-Democret.

The Lawyer'S Fable,

A barrister, who was possessed of an unusual loud voice was making an elo- quent address to jury. His case was fairly strong and his trumpet tones made the rafters ring. The jury looked thoughtful and much impressed.
 The opposing barrister had face like a hatchet and a thin, low voice. He began: "As listened to the thunderous appeals of my learned opponent recall ed fable. A lion and an ass entered into compact to slay the beasts of the field and share the spells. The ass was to go into the thicket and bray and frighten the animals out, while the lion was to lie in wait and kill the fugitives. We'll, the ass sought the darkest part of the jungle and, lifting up his awful voice, prayed and prayed and prayed. The ass was intoxicated with his own uproar, and thought he'd return to see what the lion thought thought of it. He found the lion pale ill the face and trembling. What do you think of that for braying?' said the ass. Don't you think I scared them?' Scare them ? repeated the lion in an agitated tone, Why you'd have scared me if I didn't know you were a jackass P'-Chicago Journal.

Monkeys and Microbes.

In the geological gardens in London the anthropoid apes have been kept alive during recent years by shutting them in behind glass not to protect the visitors from them. but to protect them from the visitors-that is to say, from the microbes that man harbors in his mouth. Man has more or less success fully learned how to disarm those in- yaders. but they will readily destroy those near relatives of his whose bod ies have not learned how to resist them. Mankind has no better friends than those who, like Metchnikof, teach us what to do and what not to do in arming and inuring ourselves against these sleepless and implacable but as- suredly doomed enemies of our kind.- Dr. c. W. Saleeby in Youths Compan- ion.

Some c,evea33., EocoIle-tions.


 MT. Safroni- in Sailor and BeachcUmber" ma..rS several reIer- ences to Robert Louis Stevenson. whom he saw on different occasions ill Samoa. In one place he writes:
 Stevenson was one of those men with keen face that made you feel bit reticent until he spoke, and then you discovered a human note in the voice that put you thoroughly at your ease. and as he spoke to q German sailor he picked up my violin and start ed to try and play some old folk mel ody. x He seemed fond of look ing over the ships side. gazing out to sea. and up at the stars. He was very friendly with all the sailors. went into the fo'c'stle. talked to the crew and was greatly interested in ship life"
 In another place he says:
 If I had seen and spoken to R. L. S. without knowing who he was should have thought he was a skipper or mate of some American or English ship. His manner was eaSy-in fact, almost rollicking at times.'

 From the press reports the garbags disposal condition in Denver is stench that reaches to heaven, yet Denver has a woman's civic club and woman S organization that is urging public office for women only, and Colorado has had women voters since 1893.

Seeinq Backward.

The hare can see objects behind as well as in front. It's eyes are large prominent and placed laterally. Its power of seeing things in the rear is very noticeable in touring, for, though the greyhound is mute while running. the hare is able to judge to a nicety the exact moment at which it will be best for it to double. The giraffe, which is a very timid animal, is ap- preached with the utmost difficulty on account of it's eyes being so placed that it can see both ways with equal facil- ity. This faculty enables it to direct with great precision the rapid storms of kicks with which it defends itself.

SUFFRAGE-PRO AND CON
Pro-.

It is a new departure in Connecticut three days. The reason for the change is that when it came to arranging the programme it was found absolutely inn possible to make room for the reports of all the work done during the last year and also for the other necessary business of the Convention in the usual limit of time-two days. The conven- tion will open on Tuesday, October 19, and on the evening of that day there will be dinner at the hotel Bond, when Mrs. M. Toscan Bennett will act as toastmistress. This will be followed by a reception at headquarters to which all the delegates and all Hartford suf- fragists will be invited. The public meeting which is always a feature of an Annual State Suffrage Convention will be held on the evening following "Wednesday, October 20, and the speaker will be Miss Helen Todd, of California.
 Miss Todd, who was one of the work CTS in the campaign which resulted in the winning of equal suffrage for the Californian women, has been working and speaking in the campaign all through this summer. She tells most thrillingly of the experiences of the workers in California, and her story of how the women waited for the results of the election is most dramatic and impressive. She also tells of the way in which California women have used the votes since they obtained it, and she explodes for ever the fallacy that women have more influence and are better able to get good measures passed by legislative bodies when they are voteless than when they are endowed with political power.

Red and Green Lichts.

1t is strange how the color of a light makes it more or less visible, irrespec- tive of his actual brilliancy. To test this place two lights O: the same power-two candles of the same size will do-in two tin boxes and in each box perforate a pin hole. Cover one pin hole with green glass and one with red and place them in Il perfectly dark room. To normal person the green light will appear five times brighter when viewed obliquely than when viewed directly, but the red light be- hayes in the opposite way. Most peo- pie will pick up the green light when looking in some other direction and will be quite conscious of its presence. but when they turn their eyes directly toward it they will not see it at all. The faint red light. on the other hand. will not be noticed at all until looked at directly, when it appears quite bright. but the instant the eyes are turned away from it it is gone.-St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Generals See Troops.

When the generals cars arrived there was no loud word or galloping about. The lakes of men gathered into straight edged battalions, the batteries aligned little, d squadron refined back or spurred up, but it was all as shiftly smooth as the certainty with which Il man used to the pistol draws and levels it at the required moment. A few peasant women saw the generals alight. The aeroplanes, which had been skimming as low as swallows along the front of the line-theirs must have been a superb yiew-ascended leisurely and waited on like hawks.
 Then followed the inspection, and one saw the two figures, tall and short. growing smaller side by side along the white road till far off among the cav airy they entered their cars again and moved along the horizon to another rise of the gray green plain.

 ~RAVELING with two chaulfeurs

 and there is always another of these iron men to relieve at the wheel. Nor can l decide whether an eX-pro- lessor of the German tongue or an cx- road racer who has lived six years abroad or brigadier makes the most thrusting drives through three mile stretches of military traffic repeated at half hour intervals.
 Sometimes it was motor ambulances strung all along level or supply trains )r those stern big guns coming around .orncrs with trees chained on their long backs to puzzle aeroplanes and their leafy big shell limhers snOrting behind them. In the rare breathing spaces men with rollers and road metal attacked the road. In peace the roads of France. thanks to the motor. were none too good. In war they stand in- cessant traffic far better than they did with the tourist. My impression after some 700 miles were printed off on me ut between sixty and seventy kilome- tcrs was of uniform excellence. Nor did come upon any smashes or break downs in tha+ distance, and they cer- tainly were trying them hard. Nor. which is the greater marvel, did we kill anybody. though we did miracles down streets to avoid babes. kittens and chickens
