POOR TROM BETTI 1
The Sad Tale of the Profnnor and
the Journalist.
Professor Trombetti, whose praises
were so much sung in the foreign press
ns knowing the greatest number of
languages of any one ever born, relates
an anecdote of himself which occurred
just after he was “discovered.” In
Rome he was so pestered by journal
ists that hts patience at last gave way,
and when c»:nered by the gentlemen
of the press his language became dis
tinctly lurid.
One day ns he was coming out of the
central postofflce a frank looking
young man stepped up to him, and,
holding out his hand, said: “I am so
glad to make your acquaintance; I
have been trying to And you for days.”
“And may I inquire with whom I nm
speaking?” “Why, I am X! Not a
near relation to be sure, but near
enough to offer you congratulations,”
etc. Professor Trombetti, reassured,
and glad to get hold of some one to
unburden himself to, took the stran
ger’s arm, and, as they went down the
street, gave, in emphatic terms, a
description of his sufferings, his opin
ion of journalists, and, incidentally,
much information about himself which
the papers had been vainly sighing for.
Finally they parted with an engage
ment for dinner the next evening.
That night the professor was sitting
tranquilly in a restaurant, the observed
of all observers, when suddenly he was
seen, to spring to his feet with a smoth
ered exclamation. His friends crowded
about for on explanation, but he could
only sit down weakly and point to his
newspaper, the Glornale d’ltalia.
There, in large print, were his impru
dent revelations of the afternoon. He
had been “done” by a Journalist—Pall
Mall Gazette.
THE PERFECT NUMBER.
From Time Immemorial Three Haa
Had Unusual Significance.
The perfect number of the Pythago
rean system, expressive of beginning,
middle and end, was the number three.
From time immemorial gteater promi
nence has been given to it than to any
other except seven. And as the symbol
of the Trinity its influence has waxed
more potent in recent times. It appears
over and over again in both the New
and Old Testaments. At the creation
of the world we find land, water and
sky, sun, moon and stars. Jonah was
three days and nights in the whale’s
belly, Christ three days in the tomb.
There were three patriarchs, Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob. Abraham entertained
three angels. Job had three friends.
Samuel was called three times. Sam
son deceived Delilah three times.
Three times Saul tried to kill David
with a javelin. Jonathan shot three ar
rows on David’s behalf. Daniel was
thrown into a den of three lions be
cause he prayed three times a day.
Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego were
rescued from a fiery furnace. The
commandments of the Lord were de
livered on the third day. St. Paul
speaks of faith, hope and charity.
Three wise men came to worship
Christ with presents three. Christ
spoke three times to Satan when he
was tempted. He prayed three times
before he was betrayed. Peter denied
him three times. He suffered three
hours of agony on the cross. The su
perscription was in three languages,
and three men were crucified. Christ
appeared three times to his disciples
and rose the third day.—New York
Herald.

French Conceit.
Etienne Dumont, writing ln-the early
part of the last century, said: “The
prevailing character of the French is
that of conceit Every member of the
assembly considered himself capable
of undertaking everything. I often
said that if you proposed to the first
hundred men you met in the streets of
Paris and to the same number in the
streets of London to undertake the
charge of the government ninety-nine
of them would accept in Paris and
ninety-nine would refuse inSLondon.”
The Tibetan Conactetnce.
The Tibetans offer dally prayers for
the minute insects which they have
swallowed inadvertently in their meat
and drink, and the formula insures the
rebirth of these microbes in heaven.
Yet they eat meat freely and square
their conscience with their appetite by
the pretext that the sin rests with the
outcast assassin, the public butcher,
who will be born in the next*lncama
tion as some tantalized spirit* or agon
ized demon. That, however. Is I his own
affair.
Optical Indecision.
The Daughter—No, mother, dear, I

sion, but a squint, never!—London Tat

THE CROWS OF INDIA
TK£V ARE THE ARCH VILLAINS CP
THE BIRD WORLD.
Two Specie* of the Feathered Vapa*
bond* Fxist Side by Side and Fly
Their Trick* of Iniquity la Coih
| mon—Larceny For the Love of It.
It Is Quite impossible for nny oire
■who has not sojourned in tlie “Lai#l \
of Regrets” to appreciate the impor
tant part played by crows in the dally
life of tlie Anglo-Indian. India with
out its crows is unthinkable; it could
only be likened to London without its
fogs. Wherever human beings ha\j»
their abodes there are multitudes ijf
corvidae to be found, for the Indian
crow is an inseparable appendage of
town and village. Two species exijt
side by side in India, the great black
bird known to Anglo-Indians as the
corby and the smaller gray necked spe
cies. Both birds lead lives of aimless
vagabondage; both are scoundrels df
the most pronounced type; botli ane
sinners beyond redemption. Did tlie
black crow exist alone it would Ub
held up as the emblem of all that ts
evil and mischievous. As things are, its
iniquities pale Into insignificance be
side those of Its gray necked cousin.
The very name of the latter bird is
sufficient to raise the ire of the right
eous man. To call the arch villain <$f
the bird world “the splendid” is mese
mockery of words. Jerdon, the famous
Indian naturalist, “often regrets thjt
such an Inappropriate specific nanfa
should have been applied to this spe
cies, for it tends to bring into ridicije
among the unscientific tlie system %
nomenclature.”
The Indian crow is able to utilise
most things. A Calcutta bird has
made Itself famous for all time tty
constructing a nest of the wires usdd
to secure the corks of soda water bot
tles. Bombay is very Jealous of Cifl
cutta, and the crows, of course, ape
their betters. The Bombay birds de
termined. not to be outdone by the
Calcutta corvidae. Accordingly one <jrf
the former promptly built her nest of
gold and silven spectacle frames stol
en from Messrs. Lawrence & Mayors
factory. The value of the materials
used In the construction of this nest
was estimated at £20. But crows will
appropriate things for which they cap
have no possible use. They commit
larceny for the love of the thing. Tile
Indian crow is the Incarnate spirit if
mischief. The bird will wantonly tear
a leaf out of a book lying open on
the table. My gardener, adds Mr. Da
war, puts every morning fresh flowed
in the vases. This operation is per
formed on the veranda. One day the
man was called away from his woifc
for a couple of minutes. During hts
absence a crow swooped down and suc
ceeded in taking a beakful of flowelc
and breaking the vase in which th$y
were placed. A retired colonel of njy
acquaintance who lives in the Hima
layas is a very enthusiastic gardener,
and the crows are the bane of his llfle.
They root up his choicest seedling^,
sever the heads of his most supert)
flowers from the stalk and fly away
with the little pieces of paper whhji
he places in cleft sticks to mark whete
seed have been sown.
But it is in towns that the Iniquity
of the crows reaches its maximurg.
The Madras corvidae are a bywoi
throughout the length and breadth jf
India. The hospital is tholr favorite
playground. They are never so happy
as when annoying the inmates. They
know at once when a person is too 4l
to move. The consequence is that X
has been found necessary to have made
for all the tables wire covers which
protect articles placed at the bedside
from the ravages of the “treble date'll
birds.’’ I bave seen a Madras crow
quietly helping Itself to the contents df
a basket which an old woman was
carrying on her head. The bird wan
possessed of sufficient intelligence to
refrain from alighting on the basket
Had it done so its presence would prob
ably have been detected. It flappeH
along Just above the top of the basket^
keeping pace with the woman, and st,
unpercelved by her, made a meal oif
the contents. The knavish tricks df
crows are by no means confined to hu
man beings. As Colonel Cunningham
truly says, “Any animal pets are, df
course, even more than inanimate ob
jects, subject to their attentions, anS
unless in wholly inaccessible places ana
constantly liable to have their food
purloined and their lives rendered a
burden by persistent and ingenious per
secution.” I once possessed a grey
hound which used to be fed in the gar
den. A man had to stand over the dqg
while it was feeding; otherwise this
trows would devour the greater portion
of the meal. Their plan of campaign
was simple and effective. They soon
learned the dog’s feeding hour and A
It drew near would take up a position
on any convenient tree. The moment
the greyhound began to eat a crow
would swoop down and peck viciously
st its tail. The dog would, of coursg,
turn on the bird, and the others wouSl
seize this opportunity to snatch away
some of the food. The process woufl
be repeated until the meal was over.
Crows tease and annoy wild creatures
with the sape readiness that they Wor
ry domestic animals. They mob every
strange bird in much the same way am

any person in unusual attire.—Long

liife consists almost wholly of buy

gifts, nothing that does not call for an
equivalent. If we cannot pay for gifts
In kind we must pay in gratitude oi

If I would liave a good situation I
must pay for it not only in labor, but
in promptness, intelligence, faithful

have good service I must pay not only
In money, but in consideration, recog
nition, appreciation, fairness. I cas
hold no one to me if I misuse him.
All things are to be had for the buy
ing. Would you have friends? Then
pay tbe price. Tbe price of friendship
is to be worthy of friendship. The
price of glory Is to do something glori
ous. The price of shame is to do some
thing shameful.
Friendship, glory, honor, admiration,
courage, infamy, contempt, hatred, art
all in the market place for sale at a
price. We aro buying and selling these
things constantly as wo will. Even
beauty is for sale. Plain women can
gain beauty by cultivating grace, ani

helpfulness, courage or good will.
Beauty is not in the features alone; it
is in the soul also.
Good will buys good will, friendli

for suspicion, treachery for treachery,
contempt for Ingratitude, slovenliness,
laziness and lying.
We plant a shrub, a rosebush, an or

the same expectation. We will trust
even these unconscious things to pay
their debts.
Some of our Investments are good

we acquire—moderation, Industry, cour

Investments. Our evil institutions and
habits are bad Investments, involving
us in losses. We become debtors to
them, and they aro exacting creditors,
forcing payment in full in money and
labor and sometimes In blood, agony,

Colchester’s Thankaslvlnsr Pies.
Many funny stories are told of the
early Thanksgiving days. The town of
Colchester, for Instance, calmly Ignored
the day appointed by the governor and
held Its own Thanksgiving a week lat
er, when the sloop from New York
bringing a hogshead of molasses for
pies had arrived. In Revolutionary
times Thanksgiving was not forgotten.
The council of Massachusetts recom
mended that Nov. 16, 1776, be set aside
for “acknowledgments for mercies en
joyed.” In the next year Samuel Ad
ams recommended a form of Thanks
giving proclamation to the‘Continental
congress.
Merely Existed.
A number of lawyers were exchang
ing stories of their experiences with
witnesses under examination. One of
the parties told the following: He was
questioning a witness and said: “You
have lived In New York a number of
years. How long?” "Just twenty-five
years.” “Where did you live before
that time?” asked the lawyer, hoping
to prove an Important point ‘T didn’t
live,” replied the witness. "I was sin
