Anecdote of Pericles.
Democracy was a new thing to the
Athenlanll , and they became so ( ] read.
.fully swelled over It that Pericles was
at his wit's end . . what to do with
: them.
"If It were not for the plain people ,
poHtlcl1 would be eIl.6Y , " be was often
heard tt > complain.
11'inally , in his deBperation , he con
Butted the Delphic oracle.
"Give the plain people plenty or
rope , " was the veUed answer or tIle
! pythoness , "and leave the rest to the
Iods. "
Pericles was sorely puzz.led. But on
his way back to .A.thens , he purcll sod :
0. cigar o.r the boy on the 'aln , and It
was a Connecticut lgar.
"I wonder tr this canbe - the rope the
oracle meant ? " ho puddenlY exclaimed , :
after ho had smoked o.whUe.
It could bo , and was. To malto a.
lang stqry short , 0. great lQlItical se- '
ret had como to Jlcht , and from that
time forth Pericles had pretty much
his own way In everythlng.-Pl1clc.
A Twist of Language.
"It Is no easy task tp make some
Germans understand the English equivalent -
alent or certain German words , " said
0. Ulan who Is orten ltapt busy Inter-
preting. "Take the word 'boltommen , '
-which means ' 00 got , ' but most Ger-
Juans wHI persist for a tlmo In trans-
ll\tln it 'become. ' This has led to
Jomo ll.ug1 abl orrors.
"For Instance , 0. party ot Amorlcaus
once aslced a guide where transporta.
tlon facl11t1es ror mountain climbing
might ho obtained. Tho. guldo In his
brolten English described In detail the
mnnner and wo.y to reach 0. certnln

He attuchod to the cradle the l1exl-

smooth , soft motton. There was 11
Uny switch to mlllce It EO fa3t or slow.
"Grellt , Isn't It ? " said the salesman.
"My onl1 wonder Is that , with our

sweepers , chafinr ; dishes , hot water
llugs and what not we didn't hit on
the electric cradle Ion. before this. "
A Reliable Subtltute.

"Well , sir , " said the great lawyer.
The visitor spoke tremulously.
"I am a defaulter , " he said , "and I
want you to defend me. "
The other shook him by the hand.
"C rtalnly , I will defend you , iny
friend , " be murmured kindly. . "And

worse than I am. It Is only $490 In

The lawyer rose brusquely. His eye
. flushed scorn and contempt.
"G ore , , " he Bald to the office boy ,
"show thlll dishonest rascal out. "
