Lady Tennant Argues Little One
Need Sustenance for Their
Thoughta and Fancies.
, L j. ft'JrAwR: avy3ZZ .
.
"Let chlldron havo fairy
tales."
urges Lady Tennant in tho London
Times, on the ground that early child
hood docs not need instruction eo
much us shape and sustenance for its
own thoughts and fancies. It Is
through the old stories and tho works
of great writers, she thinks, that chil
dren can best bo put in possession of
the freedom, which, In the words of
Joan Paul Rlchter, makes thotu citi
zens of 'the divine city of Romance.
Rending aloud to children she re
gards ns of far-reaching Importance.
Theio Is the inatnnco of a child of
Ave years who haa been hearing with
absorbing interest the story of Jo
seph and his brethren. Some days
after ho was telling his mother a story
and with glowing eyes he said: "And
dreamlngr I saw a king's throno, and
tho king's servant standing beside the
throne." It was not dinicult to trnce
the sourco of tho Impression that had
led him to clothe his thoughts In
such language.
I Let the children have tho old books
read to them. There will como days
when they will prefer to read anex
cellent modern detecUve story, or to
'buy a magazine. We must remind our
selves that possibly they would be
prlga If they did otherwise; nor
should we, I think, on any account
check reading of any kind. But In the
early daya when they are aUll being
read to, when they are ao young that
It Ilea in the mother's choice what
they ahall be hearing, then, I say, let
them hear the old books, or, If the
oboloe fall on booka of later date, let
them be the works of great writers.
WHY LOANS ARE NOT LENT
Newadaya the Exchange la Net te Re
lieve the Neeeaslteue and the
Improvident.
Why
Is It banking houses always
their huge sums of money,
j"loan"
never by any chance "lend" them 7
s"Lend" is the true verb, while "loan"
waa exclusively the noun. How came
It about that "to loan" has uniformly
supplanted "to lend?"
1 The purists make a great fuss about
this. They insist that tho stupid and
untaught financial world has foisted
upon the language a substantive verb
.when no new verb was needed; when
the ancient and established usage waa
fixed in the signification of "to lend."
Out prior to the modern development
of business enterprise, when money
was lent It was bestowed upon the
borrower either for temporary use
without compensation, as a mark of
favor or patronage,, or by the profes
sional money lender who, taking ad
vantage ef persona In extremities of
need, demanded usurious Interest.
This Anglo-Saxon verb today retains
Its ancient connotation. When It waa
coined the productive powers of money
were unknown, and the wealth of rich
men was locked up for safety and
kept out of the channels of commerce.
Nowadays, by devices of credit and
rapid Intercommunication, It la kept
constantly working In productive en
terprises. Immense loans are made.
no longer to relieve the neceaaltoua
and the Improvident, but to stimulate
Industry and to enable the borrower
aa well aa the loaner to reap a profit
In his transactions. Money la
"loaned" in this sense. It is not lent
Bookseller Felled Wltha Book.
Tom Osborne, tho bookseller, waa
one of "that mercantile rugged race to
which the delicacy of the poet is some
times exposed."
Osborne, irritated by what he
thought an unnecessary delay on the
part of Johnson, went one day into
the room where Johnson was sitting
and abused him in the most illiberal
manner.
Johnson beard him some time un
moved; but at last losing all patience,
he seized a huge folio and, aiming
a blow at the booksellers head, suc
ceeded In sending him sprawling to
the floor. Osborne alarmed the family
by his cries; but Johnson, placing hla
foot on'hls breast, would not let him
stir till he had exposed him In that
situation; and then left him with thla
triumphant expression; "Lie there,
thou son of dullness, Ignorance and
obscurity." Kearsley's "Anecdotes."
Symptoms Made to Order.
A young lady who appeared to be In
perfect health entered the consulting
room of a physician. "Doctor," she
said, "Is it absolutely essontial that I
-go to Marlenbad this year?" "Oh, per-
naps not!" tne physician replied re
assuringly. "Tell me fully your symp
toms. What do you expect to cure at
the springs?" "That Is Just what I
came to you to find out, doctor," she
confessed. "You see, I have got to talk
father over. What do you ko to
Marlenbad to be cured of?"
Surfeited.
"Can't I persuade you to subscribe
for a copy of our latest book on north
polar exploration?"
I "No, sir; you couldn't persuade me
to take It as a gift. I spent four years
carrying malls in North Dakota, two
years driving a cab In Minneapolis,
and I've Just escaped from Duluta.

graft, according to the New Y'ork cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Times
Star. Unfortunately, tho names tuny
not be used. Rut It has been the cvs
torn of a cot notation In this city to
pay n sort of lutalnlng fee to the hold
er of a cortnln political office, Just to
,bo lot alone. Tho corporation heads
did not nsk anything else from tho
officeholder. They merely did not
want to be proddod by crusades which
presumably had an origin In a desire
for reform. Tho graft payment for
years had been $10,000. "We'll likely
have to pay more, now that So and-Bo
Is In office," salil they, when a cortnln
man was elected. "Ho has tho namo
of .being very grasping,"
1 'So they sent an Intermediary to tho
newly elected officeholder, with powor
to . negotiate. They woro willing to
pay $16,000, if necessary, but not n
I penny more. Tho usual preliminaries
I were gone through. "Your company
'will havo to co mo over," said the of
ficeholder. "I'm no cheap man. I
know'you'vo been paying right along,
(and you'll have to pay me more than
you have been giving up to this office
in the past. When I go grafting I go
'right." And he swelled up and
.looked very important. The Interme
diary was frightened. He asked very
humbly how much the officeholder
Jwould demand.
"Not a penny less than $600 a
year," aald the officeholder, aternly.
The sum was paid, and It waa not
until the officeholder had been out of
office for months that he learned the
jacale on which previous payments had
.been made. The Information actually
aent him into a decline. He grieved
'ao over It that he really lost hla
health. If one mentions a large aum
of money In his presence nowadaya
he's apt to burst Into teara.
IN THE MATTER OF APPLAUSE
Clapping the Hands-Is a Poor Method
of Showing We Are Deeply
Moved.
There is a place and time for man
ual acclamation, but it Is not always
.In season or appropriate. It Is at
best a poor way of manifesting ap
proval. A thoughtful person who has
just listened to a fine performance of
a symphony or a stirring apostrophe
from an orntor must feel that to
bring one's hands together repeated
ly and noisily Is a lamo and impotent
method of showing how deeply one
has been affected. But no better
method, as yet, has beon devised.
Aa a matter of fact, as there are
"thoughts that do often He too deep
Tor tears," so there are emotions
roused sometimes by the perform,
ance of music which seem to us to
transcend any possible outward dem
onstration: we are so deeply moved
that wo are silenced. This result Is
not to be confused as may easily
happen with a failure In apprecia
tion. It la quite the contrary.
Applause, spontaneous and un
forced, la a great Inspiration to one
who appeara In public and through
any medium Is attempting to make his
cause prevail or his message heard.
The applause of a hired claque, the
prolonged artificial enthusiasm when
a standard-bearer Is nominated at a
political convention, Is a very dif
ferent matter. Applause means noth
ing If It Is Inspired by any other mo
tlvo than appreciation and the desire
to Indicate cordial and disinterested
approval.
Caught the Lion's Eye.
A middle aged mnn stopped In front
of one of the Hon cages in the Central
park menagerie and gazed Intently at
the head of the old animal that waa
lying down near tbe iron bars, prefaces
the New York Sun. After keeping
his eyes on the Inmate of the cage for
several minutes he made passes with
his hand toward It. The lion's head
gradually went down onto bis paws
and he appeared to be asleep.
"Great Is science!" the visitor said.
"The booka say one can hypnotise any
wild beast if. near enough to hold hla
eye while casting the spell, and I have
succeeded."
. "Hypnotize nothing! That old lion
has been blind In his near eye for
years," the keeper said.
Antiquity of Tobacco.
The Idea that tobacco has only been
known in Europe since the discovery
of America Is Incorrect. In fact, the
Medes and Persians a long time boi
fore our era smokod narghiles, as an
cient scriptures prove. A philologist
has suggested that the Oreeks and
Romans smoked tobacco at least in
their colonies. In theJVfalay archipel
ago tbe use of cigars and cigarettes is
said to date much further back than
the discovery of America. Tho word
"cigar" seems to show that man's
solace and comfort did not originate
In the West Indies, but Is most likely
derived from "sakara," an Arab word
meaning smoke.
A Fighting Chance.
, The advanced English class had
been reading The Legend of Sleep
Hollow, and had reached the dramat
lo line where It said, 'A plasby tramp
caught the sensitive ear sf Icbabod."
"Put It Into your own words," asked
the teacher of a promising-looking stu
dent. ,
"Why," he replied promptly, "the
dirty tramp got a hold ef his sere
ear." Judge.
