A SENSE OF HUMOR.
It Is a Precious Gift and Helps to
Lighten Life's Way.
I regard a sense of humor as one of
the most precious gifts that can be
vouchsafed to a human being. lie Is
not necessarily a better man for hav
ing it, but he is a happier one. It
renders him Indifferent to good or bad
fortune. It ennbles him to enjoy his
own discomfiture.
Blessed with this sense he is never
unduly elated or cast down. No one
can ruffle his temper. No abuse dis
turbs bis equanimity. Bores do not
bore him. Humbugs do not humbug
him. Solemn airs do not impose on
him. Sentimental gush does not Influ
ence him. The follies of the moment
have no hold on him. Titles and dec
orations are but childish baubles In
his eyes. Prejudice docs not warp
his Judgment. Ho Is never in conceit
or out.of conceit with himself. He
abhors all dogmatism. The world is a
stage on which actors strut and fret
for his edification and amusement, and
he pursues the even current of his
way, Invulnerable, doing what Is right
and projter according to his lights, but
utterly indifferent whether what he
does finds approval or disapproval
from others.

EGIDU OF NINEVEH.
The Most Ancient Banking House of
Which We Have Record.
There was a kind of public record
office attached to the palace and tem
ple at Nineveh, in which it was cus
tomary to deposit important legal and
other documents, such as contracts
and agreements for the purchase and
sale of property, marriage settlements,
wills, etc. Among these there were
discovered official statements as to the
history and transactions of the emi
nent hanking house of Egidu at Nine
veh. Assyrian chronology proves that
these refer to a date about 2,300 years
before the Christian era, when Abra
ham dwelt at Ur of the Chaldees, as is
stated in Genesis. We may therefore
claim for this firm the reputation of
being the oldest bank in the world at
least of which we have any record or
are likely to have. The accounts are
very voluminous and cover the trans
actions' of live generations of' the house
from -father tp son. Ttfg BtBj gryw -■np

Corrected In Rhyme.
Thackeray was much pestered by the
autograph hunter, says llodder In his
“Recollections.” Ue disliked above ail
things to write in un autograph album
and often refused those who asked him
to do so sometimes rather brusquely.
On one occasion the owner of an al
bum, a young lady, was fortunate.
Thackeray took her book to his room
in order to look it over. Written on a
page he found these lines:
Mount Blanc is the monarch of mountains.
They crowned him long ago.
But who they got to put it on
Nobody seemB to know.
Albert Smith.
Under these lines Mr. Thackeray
wrote:
A HUMBLE SUGGESTION.
I know that Albert wrote in hurry—
To criticise I scarce presume.
But yet mcthlnks that Llndley Murray
Instead of "who" had written "whom.”

Pliny’s Yarn*.
Pliny’s yarns about human anatomy
were something wonderful. He tells
of a ruce of savage men whose feet
are turned backward and of a race
known as Monocoll, who have only
one leg. but are able to leap with sur
prising aglltty. The same people are
also called the Sclapodae, because they
are in the habit of lying on their
backs during the extreme heat and
protecting themselves from the sun by
the shade of their feet. These people
dwell not: far from'the Troglodytae, to
the west'of whom again there are a
tribe who*are without necks and have
their eyesfln their shoulders.

BIRD FLIGHT.
Boitm Carious Facts About tha 6iza
of Wings and Bodies.
In the attempt to discover some uni
versal law of bird flight scientists have
disclosed concerning a number of spe
cies a most puzzling paradox, perhaps
the most mysterious of tile enigmas
that the subject presents. It is that in
a number of birds and insects the size
of the wings decreases in proportion to
the Increase in size of the body of the
flying creature. The Australian crane,
for Instance, weighs over 300 times
more than Hie sparrow, but in propor
tion has only one-seventh the wing
area of the smaller bird.
This curious fact is equally striking
if we compare birds with insects. If
the gnat w-ere Increased in size until It
was as large as the Australian crane
and If the wdngs of the insect were
enlarged to maintain the proportion
they now bear to its body they would
bo about 150 times larger than the
crane’s.
It requires 3.02 square feet of wing
area per pound to float the bank swal
low, but to sustain the tawny vulture,
a monstrous bird in comparison, re
quires only .08 of a square foot of
wing surface per pound of body. The
albatross, weighing eighteen pounds,
lias n spread of wing of eleven feet
six inches, while th# trumpeter swan,
weighing twenty-eight pounds, has a
spread of wing of only eight feet. The
stork weighs eight times more than
the pigeon, but in proportion has only
half as much wing surface.—Every
body’s Magazine.
PALFREY FOR DINNER.
It Was Not Horseflesh, However, That
Dr. Johnson Ate.
Dr. Johnson in Ills journal mentions
the Interesting fact that he had on a
certain day had “palfrey for dinner.”
Now, these three words have caused
not a little trouble to the critics, and
for this reason, thut they know not
what palfrey really is. It has been
suggested that palfrey Is a clerical er
ror made by the doctor himself for
pastry, but the doctor wrote so legibly
and there Is so much difference be
tween the words ‘palfrey and pastry
thnt this position Is not at all tenable.
Palfrey Is defined in Johnson’s cele
brated dictionary as “a small horse lit
for ladles,” and some have thought
that the doctor (whose feats as a
trencherman 'Were notorious) may have
bcoVpn a i»uoord on the day In question
nod d&jpMed of a small horse. All
fhjase and other conjectures are wrong,
trod we will proceed to give the correct
explanation.
The wood palfrey (sometimes pam
frey by the Interchange of 1 and in) is
still In use among the rustics of Scot
land and the north of Ireland and
means young cabbages when they first
come to table In the spring. Such cab
bages have not begun to “close” or be
come solid In the center. They are
generally spoken of ns “early pamfrey”
ami are considered a luxury. Dr. John
son probably picked up the word from
Ills friend Boswell or from some other
Scotch acquaintance. — London Notes
nnd Queries.
A Good Medioine.
Laughter not only gains friends, but
It’s a good medicine—keeps the eyes
bright, the heart light and increases
the number of red corpuscles. Per
haps thnt is the reason one sees so few
fashionable people laughing. They are
cultivating blue blood.
A man who was very ill was visited
by his doctor, one of those lugubrious
oreatures, about as cheerful as a tomb
stone. lie assumed the properly de

they need be notified nnd asking If he
had any last request.

A Curious Embrocation.
Rattlesnake oil is preserved and pre
pared very carefully for use as a lini
ment in some purts of the world.
Rheumatism and sore joints are the
ailments in which it is chiefly em
ployed. The fat is taken from the
dead reptile and laid upon a cloth in
the hot sun, from which the filtered
oil drips into n jar. From fear that
the reptile may be bitten itself the
clear oil is tested by dropping a por
tion of it into milk. If it floats in one
globule it is regarded as unaffected.
If It breaks into beads and curdles the
milk it Is judged to be poisonous and
thrown away.—Montreal Standard.
The Poor Cat.
A young wife called her husband on
the telephone to tell him a tale of woe.
In teur choked accents she said: “That
you, dearie? Well, you know that love
ly chicken pie I made you—that horrid
old cat came in and ate it up before I
could stop It.”
He answered, “Never mind, darling;
I’ll get you another cat.”
His SymptomG.
“Maybe that boy of yours will be
famous some day,” said the friend.
“I shouldn’t be surprised,” answer
ed Parmer Corntossel; “he does like to
wear curious clothes an’ say things
that sounds mere surprisin’ than sensi
ble.”—Watdiington Star.
Her Discharge.
“Why did you leave your last place?”
"Sure, I worr discharged for doin'
well, mum.”
“Discharged for doing well? Why.
where were you?”
“I worr in the horspltai, mum.”—

OUR COIN MOTTO.
“In God Wo Trust” Suggested by a
Maryland Farmer.
To an honest, God fearing farmer of
the state of Maryland is due the mot
to, "In God we trust,” which appears
on tlie coinage of the United States.
In 1801, when Salmon I\ Chase was
secretary of the treasury, he wrote to
him that as we claimed to lie a Chris
tian people we should make some suita
ble recognition of that fact on our
coinage.
Tlie letter was referred to James
Pollock, director of the mint, who dis
cussed tlie matter in his report for
1862. Congress was apathetic, and
Chase mentioned It to the lawmakers
again in 1863:
"The motto suggested, ‘In God our
trust,’ is taken from our national
hymn, ‘The Star Spangled Banner.’
The sentiment is familiar to o\\**y citi
zen of our country. It has thrilled
millions of American freemen. The
time is propitious: ’tis an hour of na
tional peril and danger, an hour when
man’s strength is weakness, when our
strength and salvation must be of
God.”
As a result a two cent bronze piece
was authorized by congress to be coin
ed tlie following year, April 22, 1804,
and upon this was first stamped the
motto, “In God we trust.” By an act
of March 3, 1865, it was extended to
other coins.—Minneapolis Journal.
WANTED SOME FLOWERS.
The Woman’s Order Startled the High
Priced Florist.
A woman went Into n fashionable
New York florist’s store one (lay to buy
some flowers for a sweet girl gradu
ate.
“I want to get some flowers for a
young lady who is to graduate tomor
row,” she said. “What have you?”
“How would some American Beau
ties do?” asked the florist.
"What are they worth?”
"The best are $7 a dozen.”
The woman thought a moment.
"Have you none Cheaper?” she asked.
“Yes,” said the florist, “we have
some with short stems for $3 and $4.”
She looked at the carnations. “How
much are these?” she asked.
“We have them for 50 cents a dozen
and 75 cents a dozen.”
“Would carnations do for a graduat
ing present?”
“Yes, indeed.”
“Will you tie them up with ribbon?”
“Yes.”
“Will you mix the colors?”
“Ye3.”
“Well,” said the woman after a mo
ment’s hesitation, “you may give me a
red one and a white one.”
The florist gasped. “Shall I put them
In separate boxes?” he asked. — Ex

Walk a Crack?
Most men cannot walk in a straight
line with their eyes open, and none
ever lived that could do so with his
eyes shut. Try it. It is an aged say
ing that a man follows his nose, and
there never was a nose since Adam
that stood straight in front of a face.
All of us are afflicted with either sln
Istrotorslon or dextrotorsion—that is, in
walking we veer either to the left or
to the right. It cannot be helped. Set
up two posts on the lawn and bet a
million that no man or woman In the
crowd can walk from one to the other
without anfractuosity. There’s a swell
word for you. Anfractuosity—that’s
where you get a wiggle on—walk wab
bly.—Bangor (Me.) News.
A Peddler of Chestnuts.
Cue summer a well known senator
went back to his birthplace and of
course made a speech to the friends of
his childhood.
“How well I remember these old
familiar scenes!” he said. “Here is the
house where I was born. Here is the
old well and there the garden patch.
Yonder are the woods, and there is the
meadow. Along the meadow is the
row of stately trees where I picked
chestnuts when I was a mere lad”—
“Yes,” broke in an old neighbor, who
seemed to be a bit bored, "and you
have been peddling them ever since.”
Whereupon the meeting closed.—Sat
urday Evening Post.
Why Cabby Smiled.
“When I was in Paris,” said the girl
who has just got home, “I took a
French lesson every day. It was my
custom to write It down on one side of
a card and my address on the other,
the address very plain so that the cab
by could read it and take me home if
I happened to get lost.
“One day I handed a cabby the card
with the address on it. He looked at
me in a puzzled way, then smiled
sweetly. I took the card and looked
at it. I had handed it to him with
my daily lesson on the top side. The
lesson was, 'I am pleased to meet you,’
written in French.”—Exchange.
The Intelligent Bohemian Life.
Corot, the French landscape painter,
was a model of consistent bohemian
ism of the best kind. When his fa

your plate at my table and be a paint

with If you will be a shopkeeper," his
choice was made at once. He remain
ed always faithful to true bohemian
principles, fully understanding the
value of leisure.—Fhillp Gilbert Ham

MANNING THE YARDS.
A Naval Ceremony That Is Not What
It Used to Be.
In the old navy, when United States
ships were actually ships with yards,
the bos’n’s mate’s call, “All hands
cheer ship!” was followed by a much
more picturesque ceremony than is
possible now, when the vessels of the
navy are fitted with but a single yard
and that only used for signaling. At
the word of command “Man the
yards!” there was an amount of acro
batic scui.ying on the main decks of
the old ships that was calculated to j
make the ship visitor hold his breath, |
the thing looked so dangerous. The
men forward in bluejacket uniform
would fairly leap up the rope ladders,
and almost by the time the echoes of
the command had died away every
yard on each mast would support
scores of men and boys, all standing
erect, most of them only held up by
the crossed arms of the men beside
them. This representation of a cross
was held by all of the men, and it
was their business to stand thus with
absolute statuesqueness. Then the
command “Cheer ship!” would be
bawled out on deck by the chief bos’n's
mate, and there would be a yell from
cathead to mizzen that couldn’t help
but warm the blood of everybody with
in hearing of it. When the men
manned the yards with all snll except
topsails and stunsalls set, such a pic
ture was really beautiful, the men’s
uniforms of blue standing out In sap
phire-like contrast to the cameo white
ness of the shrouds. This was a cere
mony on all formal occasions, such as
the visit aboard the old ships of dis
tinguished men. And "Man the
yards!” and “Cheer ship!” were com
mands always given when one of the
old clippers of the United States navy
was either departing for or arriving
from a foreign station.

What You Muet Learn if You Want
to Be a Sailor.
One thing you have to learn before
you can write sailor after your name,
and that is to master a sail. Brute
force is of no account. To use brute
force with a sail is like employing
it to capture an elephant or run down
an untamed steed. Mastering a sail
is a game of strategy, finesse, di
plomacy, flattery, persuasion and per
severance, with fierce energy flashed
in at the right instant. You must
know your sail. Sails are not all alike.
What will work with a jib will fail if
applied to a mainsail or topsail.
When once a man has become
skilled at this game he can do more
at it than three lubbers. I’ve seen
three men tackle a jib and come back
on the head baffled and beaten after
a fifteen minute fight, and then a fel
low not a quarter their combined
weight go out and conquer the sail,
binding it captive in ten minutes.
A sail master has five hands—two on
his arms, two on his legs, and his
teeth. Besides, he has knees, his el
bows, the grip of his thighs, his neck,
and his whole body. He must be an
octopus, a boa constrictor and a
monkey, combining with their quali
ties the patience of an ox, the quick
ness of a tiger and the subtlety of a
fox.—T. F. Day in the Outing Maga
zine.
His Medal.
The button worn by those to whom
congress awards medals for special
bravery in the country’s service is
blue with white stars, but it Is not
common enough for its significance
to be generally understood. A city
official who was entertaining a visi
tor who wore one of these buttons was
puzzled by it and finally asked his vis
itor to enlighten him. The man hesi
tated modestly nnd began to explain
that it was different from most dec
orations, especially foreign, which are
usually brilliantly colored. Suddenly
the official recalled what the medal
meant.
“Oh, I understand now,” he inter
rupted; “it certainly is different.
There’s no yellow in it.”—New York
Sun.
Lively Mourning.
A noted English artist once was
standing at the edge of the road wait
ing for his horse and he was dressed
in his usual peculiar style—mustard
colored riding suit, vivid waistcoat
and bright red tie. A man who had
evidently been reveling happened to
lurch round the corner of the street.
He stared at the famous artist for
a minute in silence, then he touched
his cap and asked in a tone of deep
commiseration, “Beg pardon, guv’nor,
was you in mournin’ for anybody?”
The Place For the Repentant.
They had eloped and returned for
the parental blessing.
“Father,” the beautiful young wo
man said, "we are sorry for what we
have done. Will you”—
“Then,” the stern old man interrupt
ed, “why don’t you go to the lawyer
around the corner? I’m no divorce
court.”
