WERE ALL WRONG
Wife Could Afford to Smile in Later
Years at Those Who Opposed
Her Marriage.

October &c, 1854, there were united
in marriage a pretty girl Of twenty,
Abigail Smith, daughter of minis
ter, to John Adams, young lawyer
without practice, himself the son OF
a rather poor farmer. The lady's
friends were not enthusiastic over the
match, as the girls forefathers were
all of literary or professional caste,
while the young lawyer could boast
of no connection but with the soil.
The parishioners were Outspoken in
their disapproval of the match, 1t be-
ing based largely on their suspicion of
lawyers in general.
The fiery old minister-father of Abb
gail promptly took exception to the
remarks. and the very next Sunday
announced his text as For John came
neither eating bread nor drinking
wine, and We say he hath a devil" The
minister's faith in his sOn-in-laW
proved we'll given, for the unknown
and clientless lawyer became the Sec
ond President of the United States.

BEASTS MAKE GOOD ON FILMS
parson Between Four-Footed and
Human Actors.

1t was said at a recent meeting Of
the London Geological society that the
plan Of making, and keeping on record,
films of rare animals had been entered
upon with considerable success, the
natural movements of the beasts hav-
ing been reproduced on the screen in
a most interesting and instructive
manner. 1t is indeed reasonable to
suppose that the four-legged film act
ors may even be more successful, from
an artistic standpoint, than their hui
man colleagues; first, because their
motions are naturally Ineligible with
out the accompaniment of spoken lam
guage; and second, because they cam
not be trained, as movie" performers
apparently are, to chop up their move
ments into limited number of stereo-
typed gestures, in more or less regular
sequence, which audiences presumably
know by heart and may anticipate
well in advance.-Christian Science

WHY THE CELT WAS PUZZLED
Visitors Inquiry Did Seem Unreason-
able in View of Statement He
Had Previously Made.

A well-known physician of New
York tells why he does not know
whence his ancestors came.
Now, he had always understood that
his ancestors were Scotch-Irish, and
on the strength of that belief had
prided himself on their royal blood.
Once it occurred to him to go and
have a look at the old place whence
they were supposed to have come.
When he arrived at what he believed
was the right district he appealed to
an old Irishman to tell him the exact
spot.
The Celt regarded him much as one
does a crazy man, and then said:
aye say that syour ancestors emf
grated from here 200 years ago? Then
why the deuce, sir, are ye lookin' for
them here now?

Perfect but Premature.

She had big brown eyes that were
both temperamental and intelligent.
She had thoroughbred nostrils which
dilated when she felt; and lips that
were scarlet. Many men had ex-
pressed admiration for her. She had
never loved.
He loved her. He was accustomed
to taking what he wanted. He ex-
pressed no admiration. He crushed
her to him and kissed the big brown
eyes and the scarlet lips.
She flew into a flaming rage and
sent him away, but
She sent for him.
She demanded an apology.
He tenderly kissed the big brown
eyes and scarlet lips.
She did not send him away.-From

And He Didn't See the Joke,

The subway train was sWaying from
side to side and the passenger who
hadn't got a strap to hang onto was
suffering as consequence.
Three times he landed On the lap
of a stout matron, who finally lost her
temper and inquired:
"Here, what are you doing? What
do you call yourself?'
"Well," came the smiling reply, 81
think I must now describe myself as
a lap-lander."
The joke appealed to the matron,
who not only forgave him, but decided
to retain his humor. She tried it first
on her husband. "Yes, DEAR" she
said, ''three times he landed on my
lap, and when 1 asked him what he
was he said he was an Eskimo"

George Luks, an artist, said at a
reception in New York:

keep them. AS for painters"
Mr.. Luks made a helpless gesture
and went on:
"a promising young painter said to

voice:
"My work is now hung on the line.
"Then a bitter thought struck him,

Improved Gunnery in the Navy.

Analysis Of the gunnery exercises of
the American navy during the past
year shows that the greatest progress
toward efficiency was made by vessels
of the battleship class, due to the
large number of men aboard such
ships and the comparative stability of
the personnel. The navy department
considers that battleship gunnery is
at present about equal to that of
foreign battleships. 1t is be-
lleved that next year vessels of
other classes will be brought up as re-
CARDS gunnery to the level of our
battleships.-Scientific American.
