When Wo Were All Tenors.
The primitive inihabitant s of' .Erope
were all tenors. Their de4cenamti4 or
the present 1i:ne are Inritones. ai rim
ture generations will have seminaIss
voices. The voice hs a tendency to
deepen with age. The tenor of t wenty
becomes the baritone of twenty-eight
and the bass of thirty-six. The inferior
races have higher pitched voices than
the more cultured. The negro lis a
higher voice than the white man.

darker skinned brother. The former is
usually a baritone or a tenor, the lat
ter a contralto or bass. It is asserted
that tehors are usually of slender
build, whereas basses are stout, but
there are too many exceptions to such
a rule for it to be reliable. The same
remark applies to the statement that
thoughtful men have deep toned voices,
and vice versa. The tones of a voice
are perceptibly higher before than aft
er a meal, for which reason tenors a-re
generally careful not to sing too'soon
after dinner.-Pearson's Weekly.
Waiters Tipping Wekers.
"Did you ever see. one set of waiters
serve a meal to another set?" asked the
.gray headed map. "I did. I happened
to be eating 1W the rear end of a res
taprant the other day when there came
a shift of men. A dozen of then -sat
down at nearby tables, and the others
waited on them. When they had tin
ished eating every last waiter tipped
the fellow who had served him. I
thought at the time it was a hint for
us three or four nl Aliffars who hap

but the practice shows how sacredly
waiters as a class regard the institu
tion of tipping."-New York Sun.
A Model.
A witty professional man was chat
ting with some women about a friend
of theirs who was notoriously henpeck
ed. Is better half makes him walk a
. ciftiked line, and woe be unto him -if
he deviates from it.
"Hie is a model husband?" exclaimed
one woman in the party.
"Nlay., not model,. hut modeled," gn
terrtupted the professional man', '"but
whether in ciay or putty deponent say
eth not."
I b - Flattery.
,Flattery pleases very generally. In
the firt place, the flatterer mnay think
whatt he says to be truae, but in the
secon'd place, whether he thitiks so er
'not, he certainly thinks those whom he
flatterrs of consequence' enough to be
flattered.-Johnson,

Gravitation.
The law of gravitation Is thus given
in Newton's words: "Every particle of
matter in the universe attracts every
other particle with a force whose di
rection is that of the straight line join
ing. the two and whose magnitude IS
proportional directly as the product
of their masses and inversely as the
square of their mutual distance."

"If you must monkey with restrictive
legislation, Abner, why not go in for
somethi)g popular?"
"Can such legislation be popular?"
"It can. Make it a penal offense for
a man to ask for a hair cut on Satur
day afternoon."-Washington Herald.
