After I} had been in my seat a short time, a man I knew, once divorced, but remarried; came in with his new wife and ,occupied the two seats.on my. left, and @ few moments later the woman from whom he had-been divorced and who had also remarried came in with her new husband and sat directly on my right.

The incident amused the lads and misses very much, A lady I know very well in New York, who was giving a dinner party, told me she always dreaded the arranging of her guests at her tables, lest she put people together whom the “law had set apart;” as she put it. “It would be perfectly dreadful to seat a gentleman beside a lady to whom he is paying alimony.”—Smart Set. rr * Comparative Longevity. It has often been Tematked that while nothing is so uncertain as thre duration of any given human life nothing is more certain than the aggregate of years which may be assigned to a group of 100 persons or more at any particular age. The expectation of life at a given age, to use the actuarial phrase, differs considerably, as might be expected, in different countries, and Englishmen -may be surprised to learn that they are not the longest fiving among the white races, At the age of 20 an Englishman if average health may expect to live years, and any life office will grant him’ a policy based on that probability. The American’s expectation is for a slightly longer period. On the other hand, @ German lad of 20 ean count upon little more than 39 years and a half. It would seem, therefore, that the restlessness attributed to the AmerieaR ‘temperament, does not necessarily eonduce to the shortening of life nor the composure of the German te ts prolongation. Possibly the better feeding and-elothing of Americans in the lower classes of the population are the princk pal causes of their greater longevity. Their position is, at any rate, maintained in later as well as in earlier years. : The American who has reached 60 may look to complete 14 years more, while the Britisher’s expectation is only about 13 years and 10 months and the German’s as nearly as possible 12 months less. Both at 20 and at 60 the Frenchman’s prospect is a-little better than the German’s and a little worse that’ the Englishman’s.—London Globe. “Beleaguered.” said Tom. — PearWouldn’t Sell the House, The house in which Joan of Arc was. born is still fafthfully preserved in pious veneration at Domremy, where it is lodked upon almost inthe light of a themselves and utter a prayer for tection ag they go by. ‘The, story goes that a rich and. eccentric Englishman tried hard to buy, the: place in 1837. It was at that time property of a farmer named Girar The Bnglishtnen ‘offered ‘to let '’ fame his own pfice, but the old mi ‘held firm, » ‘No, no; no,” he cried.’ would not sell {t‘even to a Prenc! much less to a foreigner and e an Englishman. People here would me a traitor and a coward were I part with the house from which Joan of Arc set out to serve ee.” 4 The Bngtishman cotivinced himse}f. that ‘further “bargaining was uselegs: and went his way). . ; :. Soon after ‘an officer from the ‘a, household arrived in the village am asked to speak with Girardin., Before the whole village, assembled in. the street, he said: “Girardin, the king h learned that you have refused to’ al your house 'to an Englishman. He de sires to reward you, but not in coln Hie knows that you no more: ‘want the money ‘of the French than.of the Eng: lish,, therefore. has, he commanded me to present you witb the cross of the Legion of Honor.” t Pins, : ; Queen Catherine obtained pins from, France, and, (1/1543, an. act was passel: “That no, person shall put to sale any pinnes but only such as shall be double headed and have the heads soldered fast to the shank of the pinnes, well smoothed, the shank well shapen, the points well round filed, cauted and sharpened.” At this time most pins were made of: brass, but many were: also made of fron, with a brass surface. France gent ‘a large numberof pins. to Bugland until about the year 1626. In this year one John Tilsby started pinmaking in Gloucestershire. So successful was his venture that he soon had 1,500 persons working. These pine. made at Stroud’ were held in high rp pute. In 1636 pinmakers combined and. founded a corporation. The industry. was carried on at Bristol and Birmingham, the latter becoming the chief center. In 1775 prizes were offered for the first native made pins and needles in Carolina, and during the war in 1812 pips fetched enormous prices. é Pins vary from 3% inches in length to the small. gilt entomologists’ pin; 4,500 weighing about an ounce.—Good Words. ‘ .

He stopped off at a town which was the loafing place of a large mumber\ of cowboys when they were offiduty. ‘These rough looking fellows, with revolvers strap-, ed, to their sides: and wearing belts . with cartridges, met Mr. Colson 7 d him to, take a drink. He declined at first, but: they insisted, and he went along with them. When the party reached the saloon, the biggest of the three called out, ‘What are you going to have?” ‘The other two said, ; “ ‘Give me whisky, too,’ he said. “What's yours? he added ‘to Mr. ‘Colson. ; ' “ ©Water.’ . «© water, eh!’ exclaimed the big fellow. ‘See here, stranger, you drinks what them other gents drinks er I'll . . “He drew, out his revolver and handied it menacingly. “You didn’t dictate to these gentlemen what they should call for, did you? said Mr. Colson. 4 “ ‘No.’ “*Well, gou can’t dictate to me, either. My drink is water. I always thought you would be too much of a gentleman, Dave, to question a man’s right to choose his own drink when he was your guest,’ ; . * Well, string me up if it ain’t Tom Colson!’ exclaimed the man, who had recognized his boyhood friend. ‘Me and Tom used to go to school together, fellers. Well, if I ain’t glad to see you! I want to apologize to you, Tom, fer what . said, and I want to say to you, fellers, that_you’ll change your order and drink what Tom drinks or pop goes the glasses.’”’ The Kiss That Made Him Mad. A Boston man, in speaking of certain foreign characteristics, told the following story: “A middle aged American couple traveling abroad some years .ago,.called in Rome on a sculptor witb whom they had been acquainted years before, The visit passed off pleasant ly, but at its close the host. gallantly, ‘but none the less to her surprise and ‘chagrin, ‘kissed’ the ‘lady as he said goddby. The sculptor was an elderly man, but nevertheless it was a liberty. and she was not astonished to hear her husband ejaculate: ‘Why, I neverjheard of such cheek! I’ve a good mind to go back and tell him what I think of him’ “after two or three remarks of a similar tenor, in which the note of anger was rising, the wife decided to pour off on the troubled waters and so. laying ber hand on his arm. said: ‘! ‘know, dear, he shouldn’t have kissed ‘me, but .what does it really matter? What does a kiss count in a woman of my years? He tis a very old man. and probably he was following the fashion of the country.’ “Her husband turned an astonished face. ‘Of course I don’t mind his kissing. you,’ he raged, ‘but.’ and his voice rose, ‘it’s his having kissed me that has hurt my, feelings!’ “The sculptor had followed the ItalWAS GRACIOUS.

In the evening, Mrs. Lincoln being indisposed, the president and little ‘Lad Linceln came, and I ‘showed them to the box, “As Tad entered he turned and eaid, ‘Come in, Lew.’ ‘Oh, no,’ I replied; ‘that would not be right.’ Tad then turned to ‘his father and said, ‘Pap, y have no objection to Lew coming in Mr. Lincoln, with a smile and motioning me to a seat, replied: ‘No, Tad; certainly net for any ef your friends, We will be glad to bave your compe ny.’ 2 j “T told Tad that my business woul not allow me the privilege, and, thanking both father and son, I returned te my duties with a light beart and with an admiration for the president I have felt for but few men, and since ‘that incident I. have often recalled it and expressed my sorrow that he.met with a death so untimely.” — Washington Star. Japiter Warmer Than the Earth. The gigantic mass of Jupiter has a much larger warmth than that of the earth. It is the result of the molecular movement produced by the compression of the strata and mast be greater the more powerful the masses, and hence the larger the pressure of the strata is. Jupiter surpasses the earth in point of mass 307 times, and for this reason the inner temperature or individual warmth of the planet is proba bly high enough to evaporate the water upon the surface quickly, so that water vapor forms the principal substance of the atmosphere of Jupitet. Water vepor is an excellent reflector and readily light emitted by the planet.—Professor Hughes in Chicago Tribune. Horse Phrenology. Horse phrenology is the latest discovery of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons of England. According to Harold Leeney, a member of the coHege, it is easy to tell a horse’s: character by the shape of his nose. If there is a gentle curve to the profile and at the same time the ears are pointed and sensitive, it is safe to bank on the antmal as gentle and at the same time high spirited. If, on the other band, the horse has a dent in the middle of his nose, it is equally safe to set bim down as treacherous and vicious. The Roman nosed horse is sure to be a good animal for hard work and safe to drive, -but he is apt to be slow. A horse with a slight concavity in the profile will be scary and need coaxing. A.horse that droops his ears is apt to be lazy fan custom and kissed both wife and as well as vicious.—Farmers’ Advyoto the president’s house to say that af accounts for the bright radiation, of } EST.

The incident amused the lads and misses very much, A lady I know very well in New York, who was giving a dinner party, told me she always dreaded the arranging of her guests at her tables, lest she put people together whom the “law had set apart;” as she put it. “It would be perfectly dreadful to seat a gentleman beside a lady to whom he is paying alimony.”—Smart Set. rr * Comparative Longevity. It has often been Tematked that while nothing is so uncertain as thre duration of any given human life nothing is more certain than the aggregate of years which may be assigned to a group of 100 persons or more at any particular age. The expectation of life at a given age, to use the actuarial phrase, differs considerably, as might be expected, in different countries, and Englishmen -may be surprised to learn that they are not the longest fiving among the white races, At the age of 20 an Englishman if average health may expect to live years, and any life office will grant him’ a policy based on that probability. The American’s expectation is for a slightly longer period. On the other hand, @ German lad of 20 ean count upon little more than 39 years and a half. It would seem, therefore, that the restlessness attributed to the AmerieaR ‘temperament, does not necessarily eonduce to the shortening of life nor the composure of the German te ts prolongation. Possibly the better feeding and-elothing of Americans in the lower classes of the population are the princk pal causes of their greater longevity. Their position is, at any rate, maintained in later as well as in earlier years. : The American who has reached 60 may look to complete 14 years more, while the Britisher’s expectation is only about 13 years and 10 months and the German’s as nearly as possible 12 months less. Both at 20 and at 60 the Frenchman’s prospect is a-little better than the German’s and a little worse that’ the Englishman’s.—London Globe. “Beleaguered.” said Tom. — PearWouldn’t Sell the House, The house in which Joan of Arc was. born is still fafthfully preserved in pious veneration at Domremy, where it is lodked upon almost inthe light of a themselves and utter a prayer for tection ag they go by. ‘The, story goes that a rich and. eccentric Englishman tried hard to buy, the: place in 1837.

Soon after ‘an officer from the ‘a, household arrived in the village am asked to speak with Girardin., Before the whole village, assembled in. the street, he said: “Girardin, the king h learned that you have refused to’ al your house 'to an Englishman.

France gent ‘a large numberof pins. to Bugland until about the year 1626. In this year one John Tilsby started pinmaking in Gloucestershire. So successful was his venture that he soon had 1,500 persons working. These pine. made at Stroud’ were held in high rp pute. In 1636 pinmakers combined and. founded a corporation. The industry. was carried on at Bristol and Birmingham, the latter becoming the chief center. In 1775 prizes were offered for the first native made pins and needles in Carolina, and during the war in 1812 pips fetched enormous prices. é Pins vary from 3% inches in length to the small. gilt entomologists’ pin; 4,500 weighing about an ounce.—Good

A Boston man, in speaking of certain foreign characteristics, told the following story: “A middle aged American couple traveling abroad some years .ago,.called in Rome on a sculptor witb whom they had been acquainted years before, The visit passed off pleasant ly, but at its close the host. gallantly, ‘but none the less to her surprise and ‘chagrin, ‘kissed’ the ‘lady as he said goddby. The sculptor was an elderly man, but nevertheless it was a liberty. and she was not astonished to hear her husband ejaculate: ‘Why, I neverjheard of such cheek! I’ve a good mind to go back and tell him what I think of him’ “after two or three remarks of a similar tenor, in which the note of anger was rising, the wife decided to pour off on the troubled waters and so. laying ber hand on his arm. said: ‘! ‘know, dear, he shouldn’t have kissed ‘me, but .what does it really matter? What does a kiss count in a woman of my years? He tis a very old man. and probably he was following the fashion of the country.’ “Her husband turned an astonished face. ‘Of course I don’t mind his kissing. you,’ he raged, ‘but.’ and his voice rose, ‘it’s his having kissed me that has hurt my, feelings!’ “The sculptor had followed the ItalWAS GRACIOUS.

Japiter Warmer Than the Earth. The gigantic mass of Jupiter has a much larger warmth than that of the earth. It is the result of the molecular movement produced by the compression of the strata and mast be greater the more powerful the masses, and hence the larger the pressure of the strata is. Jupiter surpasses the earth in point of mass 307 times, and for this reason the inner temperature or individual warmth of the planet is proba bly high enough to evaporate the water upon the surface quickly, so that water vapor forms the principal substance of the atmosphere of Jupitet. Water vepor is an excellent reflector and readily light emitted by the planet.—Professor Hughes in Chicago Tribune. Horse Phrenology. Horse phrenology is the latest discovery of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons of England. According to Harold Leeney, a member of the coHege, it is easy to tell a horse’s: character by the shape of his nose. If there is a gentle curve to the profile and at the same time the ears are pointed and sensitive, it is safe to bank on the antmal as gentle and at the same time high spirited. If, on the other band, the horse has a dent in the middle of his nose, it is equally safe to set bim down as treacherous and vicious. The Roman nosed horse is sure to be a good animal for hard work and safe to drive, -but he is apt to be slow. A horse with a slight concavity in the profile will be scary and need coaxing. A.horse that droops his ears is apt to be lazy fan custom and kissed both wife and as well as vicious.—Farmers’ Advyoto the president’s house to say that af accounts for the bright radiation, of } EST.
