All the young gentlemen and la dies laughed. The Twins didn't like to be.laughed at they were almost readv to cry, "And why did" you call her Deirdre?" asked Lady Kathleen. "It was because of finding her in the bog all alone with herself, the same as "Deirdre when she was a baby and found by the highjiing of Emain," Eileen explained. "A very good reason, and it's the finest story in Ireland," said Lady Kathleen. "I'm glad you know it so welland she is such a fine pig that I'm v going to buy her from you myself."' All the young adies seemed to think this very funny, indeed. . But Lady Kathleen didn't laugh. She called one of the footmen. He came running. "Do you - see that this" pig is sent to the castle when the fair is over she said. "I will, your ladyship," said the footman. V . Then Lady Kathleen took ouVher purse. "What is the price of your pig" she said to the Twins. They didn't know what to say, but the Judge, who was standing near, said, "She is a high-bred pig, your ladyship, and worth all of three pounds." "Three pounds ifcis, Jtten, said the Lady, Kathleen.

Then while he stayed id sell his butter and eggs, and to do his buying, the Twins started out to see the fair by themselves. " 'Right reserved by Houghton-Mifflin Co.)

WHY?- Do Some Months Have 31 Days? (Copyright,' 1J0. 1 By the, "Wheeler Syndicate, Inc.) In the distribution of the days through the several months, Jul ius Caesar adopted a sampler and more easily remembered arrange ment than that which has since prevailed. He ordered that the odd months January, March, May, July? September and No vember, should each have thirty one days and that the eveu months should have thirty, -with the exception of February which, in ordinary years should hav; twenty-nine, but every fourth year, thirty days. This order was interrupted to gratify the jpanity' "of Augustus Caesaf, so that August, the month bearing his name, should have as many -days as- July, theymonth which is named for Julius Caesar. Accordingly, a day was taken from February and given to Au gust and, in order , that three" months of thirty-one days might not come together, September and November were reduced to thirty days and thirty-one given to October and December. Had it not been for the vain whim of a Roman emperor, therefore, it would havbeen a simple, matter to recall the numbeD?of days to any month without having to bring to mind the rhyme which begins "Thirty days hath Septem ber, April, June and November.

Ifvou -sav nothinsr in this era of grace the world concludes you are either a simp or that your wife has attained her objective 100 per cent of the joint conversation. Today a fame .for wisdom is ac quired by asking questions.

He hasn't arny opinion nor have you, butit is soon bruited about that you are a metaphysicist of note, which is a cross hetwecn a psychologist and a home for the incurable insane. When Gertie Stone got her job in -notions at the Peerless depart ment store and was told to come to work the next morning at 8 o'clock she turned tp the superintendent with a simple, "Why?"
