His One Brave Deed. She was a hero worshiper. : Often she would read history just to find some new hero to worship. Otherwise she would read such novels as “Beautiful Betsy. the Belle of the Brassworks; Pat The Baronet’s Bride.” Of course this made her feel that she had married beneath her, for her husband had not grown round shouldered from wearing heavy medals. Occasionally she would tell him that she wished he was a hero. : Once the foolish man told her that he would be a hero if he had a chance. “You would 7’ she said in -tones of incredulity. “Did you ever do anything in your life that looked like brayery or that seemed vaierous in after years?” He thought of the day when they played Mendelssohn's “Wedding March” and he gave the minister $10 and she became his wife. But he didn’t say anything about it. For a true hero never talks about his lorious, daring deeds. . So she never knew that her husband was a hero. Isn’t it a sad, sad story ?—Baltimore American. Loyalty. A Durham collier recently took unto himself a wife whose friends had done their utmost to dissuade her from marrying, but without success. Meeting her one day some months after her marriage, a friend remarked: “Hello, Bess! Yer look right bad! Has ’e been a-thumping yer? I knowed what it would be, but yer would have ‘Im. Everybody ssid Bob ’ud mak’ a fitball of yer!” ; “Then everybody was wrong!” snapped the ill used wife. “We've been married this eight months, and I ain’t dies, but to give our Bob ’is due I will So there!’—Exchange. Her Base Ingratitude. When Duchenois, the great French actress, died, some one met an old man who had been her intimate friend and who was apparently crushed with sorrow. Kindly meant professions of sympathy and consolation failed to cheer him. “For,” said he, “it is not so much her loss which trouk!cs me as her base ingratitude. Can you credit it? She times a week regularly for 30 years!” Little Interruptions, “My boy,” said the first proud papa, has a bad habit of interrupting me not th for that yet.” “No,” replied the other. “My boy ‘ontents himself With interrupting me vhen I’m = sleeping.” — Philadelphia Press.

When he ap peared in Mr. Treland’s offices at Washington one day, the lawyer was cordial ¢o the old preacher, took him to all the interesting places of the capital and in the evening had him to dine at the home of a lady in the official circle who would rather decorate her table with quaint, homely characters than ‘@ith notables. .Spaghetti was one of the dighes served, and the old man took to it with amazing celerity. Put very much at his ease by the gracious ways of his hostéss, he asked for and polished off another plateful of the Italian paste. Sighing contentedly as he finished, “ remarked: “T wish, ma’am, you'd tell me what's the name of that dish I've just been eating.” “That’s spaghetti, elder,” said the hostess, “an Italian dish.” “So? snid the elder. ‘Well, it’s real good, and I wish before I ge you'd give me some of the seed. Chances are that we can grow the stuff in Kentucky.” A Long Bath. A man who is a lawyer and a journalist in one of the smaller inland cities of Ohio tells of an uncle he has in the region of Massillon. This relative is one of the pious members of a small community and, being possessed of considerable executive ability, has been for more than 20 years the superintendent of a thriving Sunday school. His besetting sin, if it might be called such, is his propensity to exaggerate gtories in order to make them interesting to his auditors. Some time ago he was telling his lawyer-journalist nephew of how he cured himself of the ague. It was several years ago, and, having tried every remedy in vain, he at last consulted an old Indian doctor, who advised him, he gays, to go down to the creek each morning immediately on rising and sit in the cold water up to his chin. He was to sit there one minute the first morning and then double the time each day for 20 days. The uncle says. he followed the prescription and was cured. The nephew, who happens to be of a ealculating turn of mind, figured out how long his uncle would stay in his cold bath on the twentieth day. He found that the last treatment would last a few Gays over six months.— Cleveland Leader. A Jacket of Many Garments. ‘Although Gordon declined to accept the bowls of gold offered him by the Chinese emperor after the suppression ef the Taiping rebellion, yet he congented to receive the yellow jacket, a distinction limited to 12 wearers, who eonstitute the imperial bodyguard. When the presentation of so exalted, an oriental order took place, there was a -most-remarkable ceremony observed by the Celestial grandees commissioned to personally confer the high mark of the emperor’s favor. To Gordon’s evident astonishment, the operation of donning the yellow jacket in its entirety was a considerable undertaking, for between two and three hours the great but simple minded soldier was engaged in putting on one suit and taking off another unti ‘a most extensive wardrobe had been gone through. It comprised silk dresses, robes, jackets, hats, caps, boots, shoes, fans, gir thumb rings of jade and necklaces for all seasons and occasions. The yellow jacket in its actuality was the last item of the raiment bearing its name tn which Gordon was arrayed.—Pearson’s Weekly. Returns Were Not Adequate, A minister in Glasgow, says The Scottish-American, asked an urchin who was standing looking in at one of the Sabbath school windows how he would lize to join the Sunday school and grow up a good man. “What sort o' Sunday schule 4s’t? *Stablished?” “Yes,” said the clergyman. “tt ts connected with the Established church Are you not coming in?’ “Na.” replied the boy. “I tried the *Stablished Kirk Sunday schule last year. an I only got twa fardin oranges .

Casa Grande and Florence a party of hunters founda skeleton which is believed to be the remains of Burt Alvord, leader of one of the most desperate bands of train robbers that ever operated in Arizona.
