Be Natural.

Holmes says that there are six peo-
pie present whenever two meet in con-
versation-the real A. the real B, A az
he sees himself, B as he sees himself,
A as B sees him and B as A sees him.
The remark comes back when one
goes out upon the street and considers
himself and the other people who pass.
particularly those who seem on the
slippery road to success. 1t is not they
themselves who go by; it is what they
would have other people think them.
If they are young and inexperienced
they must tighten up their faces with
an artificial solemnity; if they are get
ting on in years they must affect an
artificial snappiness. They wear their
outward aspects like clothes.
One feels like crying in the ears of
young men: BE natural. Live or die.
sink or swim, survive or perish. but be
yourselves. New York Globe.

His Little Lot.

There were some interesting episodes
in the life of Sir Charles Euan-Smith
Once in the market place OF an At
ghanistan town he was fired at by a
native He lodged complaint with
the ameer, who appeared to take no
notice of the incident, merely remark
ing, "That's all right" Sir Charles
complained again and met with the
same reply He still thought that the
ameer was treating serious matter
with less consideration than it deserv-
ed. but thought it advisable to say no
more on the subject. About week
afterward he was invited by the aTneer
to ride with him. They rode for some
distance outside the town. and they
passed gibbet after gibbet. At length
Sir Charles said, "Your highness has
been busy of late" "Oh. no." replied
the ameer: they are your little lot"
He had seized all the members of the
would be assassin's family and hanged
every one of them.

Fortunes In Earthinqs,

It is we'll known that shopkeeperS
make pounds by ignoring farthings or
by giving something for them that is
worth far less than farthing, but
where shopkeepers make the pounds
banks and the English government
make their hundreds of pounds. If a
farthing is due from You in takes you
are charged onepence On the other
hand, you are never paid onepe2ce for
a farthing.
The same principle is applied to frac
tions of pounds. Banks in reckoning
interest for themselves call any part
of FL a full pound. whereas in reckon
ing interest for you odd shillings are
left out Of account. Thus for de-
post OF 900 0s. lid. you would receive
interest on 200 only.
1t is amazing how the state profits
by not paying fractions of pence.
The government has a special FUND
in which are placed the fractions of
pence withheld in paying dividends on
government stock. This fund amount
ed to more than 100000 in ten years
before being used for other purposes.
As far as the government is concern
ed. farthings mean a lot.-London An
