Standish, an artist, uses Mary, his
wife, as the model for his painting OF
the Madonna. When the connoisseur and
the parishioner came to inspect the pic
ture, the connoisseur recognizes in the
model an old paramour, and tells the
husband so. The husband, while sur
prised, fails to disclose his identity and
the visitors purchase the picture. After
their departure, the artist upbraids his
wife. She tells him of her long sc-
quantance with the connoisseur and
how. for five years she believed herself
legally married to him. But the hus-

The Auqef Fish.

The ahger fish, half fish, half
crab, is the terror of all vessels but
ironclads that use the south seas.
This creature, which is not bigger
than an almond, has a proboscis
like an enlarged gnat sting that can
bore through even sheet iron. Au-
ger fish frequent many Of the la
goons of the coral islands and bur-
row holes for themselves in the
coral, but they have a perverse
habit of doing the same thing to
ships lying at anchor, and the dam
age generally shows itself when
next the vessel is at sea in bad
weather, with disastrous results.

The Bayonet.

Like most other inventions, the
bayonet was the result of a mo-
ment's grim necessity. A regiment
of Basque soldiers from Bayonne
found itself in the thick of a fight
with all the ammunition gone. They
had muskets and swords, and the
situation suggested wiring the sword
to the barrel of the gun, so that
they could gain at least that much
advantage over the enemy in the
hand to hand contest which was
their only hope. With a sudden
rush they charged the opposing
force, and by means of their longer
reach they gained a notable vic
tory. Whether this be fact or mere
tradition, it is certain that the city
of Bayonne developed a new and
profitable industry, that of manu-
featuring bayonets, whose advan-
tage was so apparent that they we're
adopted by all Civilized" nations.

How One Observer Describes Wash.
inaton and Its Social Life.

Washington is essentially the city
of the social practitioner, of the
climber, of snobs and of snuhs. Ev-
erybody is trying by hook or crook
to better his social position, which
is as praiseworthy as an effort to
better himself financially or rhySic-
ally. And yet the climber is always
joke.
A woman whose husband has a
subcabinet job and who takes her
self very seriously in consequence
called up an old resident one day
with "Good morning, Mrs. Jones.
How can l get people like the Dan
vers to come to my parties"
The resident lady grinned huge
grin into the telephone.
"Why, Pm sure I don't know: If
you aren't acquainted with Mrs.
Danvers and she doesn't make any
overtures to you I don't believe it
would be possible to get her to come
to your parties"
The near cabinet woman uttered
an exclamation of disgust. '1'd like
to know what's the good of the posi-
ton we've acquired in Washington
if I can't work it to get in with the
kind of people l want"
A newly rich woman in town with
a whole fleet of motorcars and no
need of a nerve tonic breaks into
many of the smartest homes by a
system entirely her own.
She finds out when a motorless
friend, of assured social position,
however, is invited to swagger re-
ception or ball, to which she herself
has received no card.
She COOS softly over the tele-
phone: 'Nly dear Mrs. jenkins, if
you are going to the British en-
bassy tonight, won't YOU give me
the pleasure of going with me in
my car? I'll call for you at TO-"
The motorless matron usually
falls into the trap, all unsuspicious
that she is making herself socially
responsible for an arch schemer who
has no entree.-Daisy Ayers in Lou
isville Courier-J Journal.

Coins Turned to Snakes.

A money trick of Hindu jugglert
invariably causes great amusement
to every one who sees it except the
victim of the joke. The jugglel
takes three copper coins and places
them in the palm of some one in
the group of spectators, bidding him
hold them as tightly as he can. By
and by it seems to the holder Of the
coins that they are swelling and
growing hot. They seem to be NOV.
ing about. He holds his hand closed
as long as he can and then opens it,
always with a gasp of fright, fol-
there wriggling about are three tiny
snakes.-New York Tribune.
