Hew an English Scoffer was Undone.
An English peer C3lled upon the
famous Josiah Wedgwood, who was
, an earnest religious man, and desired
to see his great pottery factories.
With one of his employees, a lad of
about fifteen years of age, Mr.
Wedgwood accompanied the nobleman
through the works.
The visitor was a man of some
- - ?? _ t
what reckless lite, ana ratner yam 01
liis religious unbelief. Possessing
great natural wit, he was quite entertaining
in conversation, and after
a while forgot himself in expressions
of "polite" profanity and in occasional
jests with sacred names and
subjects. This seriously disturbed
Mr. Wedgwood.
The boy was at first shocked by
the nobleman's irreverance, but soon
became fascinated by his flow of
skeptical drollery, and laughed
heartily at the witty points made.
When the round of the factories
had been made, the boy was dismissed,
and Mr. Wedgwood selected
a beautiful vase of unique pattern,
and T??a!!ed tbe long and careful
process of its making, as they had
seen it in the vats and ovens.
The visitor was charmed with its
exquisite shape, its rare coloring, its
pictured designs, and reached out
his hand to take it.
Mr. WTedgwood let it fall on the
floor, and broke it to atoms. The
nobleman uttered an angry oath.
"I wanted that for my collection,"
said he. "No art can restore what
you have ruined by your careless
_,aa n
ness.
\ "My?Lord," replied Mr. Wedgwood,
"there are other ruined thiDgs,
more precious than this, which can
never be restored. You can never
give back to the soul of that boy
who has just left us the reverent feeling
and simple faith which you have
destroyed by making light of the
religion which has been his most
scared memory and inheritance. For
years his parents have endeavored to
teach him reverence for scared
things, and so to influence his mind
that his life and conduct should be
governed by religious? principles
You have undone thtir labor in less
than half an hour.
The nobleman, though greatly astonished
at such plainness of speech
from a "mechanic," respected a brave
and honest man, and he did not go
away without expressing bis regrets,
and admitted the justice of the reproof.
A common acknowledgment of
God, and the prevalence of a rever
ent spirit, are society's safe guard
and the State's defence.
None but those who forgot how
much the country owes to religious
feeling will ever trifle with it in the
vouDg or sneer at a "pious education."
A single scoffing speech may
do mischief for a lifetime.
An Epidemic of Whooping Cough.
Last winter during an epidemic of
whooping cough my children contracted
the disease, having severe
coaghiDg spells. We had used
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy very
successfully for croup and naturally
turned to it at that time and found
it relieved the cough and effected a
complete cure.?John E. Cliffcbd,

To the Editor of the Dispatch:
Pleasant days and lovely nights,
The sunshine warms and the moon

you, but not yet. While he has not
used the pen for your columns, yet
he has often used his mind in kind
remembrance of you.

"Now, has anyone a question to

Last Sunday he explained the lesson
as usual dwelling at length on
its chief thoughts, and wound up
with the usual question:
"Now, has anyone a question to !
ask?"
A member of the boys junior class J
raised his hand.
"Well, what is your question?" j
asked the Superintendent.
"Please, sir, are we going to have ;

American Trade in Tasmania.
In Tasmania the trade in axes and

intention to carry on international \
competition between teams of axmen

American tools, with the object cf
proving which count* y manufactures

MAN AND HIS MONEY, j
THE VARIOUS WAYS IN WHICH BILLS
ARE CARRIED.
How the Man Who Uses a Rubber
Dnnd Around His Wad Fixes Up His
Roll?Coin Cranks, Who Like to
Handle Xew Money?Wealth In Every
Pocket.
A great many men have cranky ideas
about preparing their bills for ready '
handling. One plan is to fold each bill
separately, keeping the denominations
apart in the various divisions of their
pocketbooks. This method facilitates
the search for the desired sum when
making a purchase. This is almost a
, sure guard against passing out a bill
of the wrong denomination,
j Then there are men who make a
neat roll of all their bills. The first is
rolled by itself to about the size; of a
lead pencil, the next is lapped about
it. and so on to the end. Then a rub
j ber band is placed about the entire
lot. When it is desired to use one of
the bills, the rubber is removed and
the end of the first bill caught between
the thumb and forefinger of the
right hand while the roll is held between
the thumb and forefinger of the
left hand. Then the bill is quickly unwound,
none of the others being disturbed.
A great many men never carry a
pocketbook. One reason for this is
that a well worn purse more easily
slips from the pocket than a roll of
bills. Then, again, the bulk of a pocketbook
is annoying. It takes up too
much room, especially where the pantaloons
are made snug. When pocketbooks
are not carried, a favorite receptacle
is the watch pocket. When
this is used, the bills are made up into
a little, hard bunch. Their presence
is always felt against the body. In a
crowd there is no danger of losing
them, and when traveling with any
considerable sum this is a safe depository.
Some men have a fad of carrying a
lot of new bills in an envelope that is
kept in one of the inside pockets. Now
and then a man is found who keeps a
few bills in every pocket. He goes on
the theory that if he is robbed of one
lot a sufficient amount will remain to
last him until he reaches home, ne
starts out feoling that he is going to
be robbed and makes provision to meet
every possible emergency. He usually
makes three folds of his bills and
tucks them away in the corners of his
pockets with extreme care. He does
not feel surprised if he finds upon
making an inventory after arriving
home that a part of his fuuds has disappeared,
as he expected to be robbed.
Any number of men are found who
keep only a little working capital in
their trousers pockets, the bulk of their
funds being concealed in broad, flat
wallets in the inside pocket of their
waistcoats. These bills are always or
large denominations and folded once.
When a man brings forth his reserve
funds, it will be found that all the
bills have a smooth, bright appearance.
They have been with him so
long that they are as flat as a sheet
from a letter press.
Very few men in this country carry j
coins in purses. In England purses are
common. The material is generally j
pigskin, but undressed kid is also used
extensively. The former have two j
compartments, one for small gold coins
and the other for silver. It is sometimes
amusing to watch a man with a
little undressed kid bag pay his fare
on the street cars, especially if he is
wearing thick dogskin gloves. Only
conductors with great patience can ;
watch the proceeding with complacency.
A woman can pick out Ave pennies
from beneath a roll of bills In considerably
less time than it takes the
man with the kid purse to bring forth
a nickel. One reasou that the kid
purse is not popular is because it feels
like the half of a small dumbbell in
the pocket when fairly well filled. In
London it is the proper thing to carry a
pigskin owing to the large circulation
of sovereigns. It is essential to keep
the goltland silver separate in order to
avoid mistakes.
There are coin cranks as well as paper
money cranks. Some years ago
there lived a little, round faced man
over in the Back Bay who came into
the business district every week day
morning at precisely 9 o'clock. In
paying his fare he always passed up a
bright, new nickel that looked as if it

Where or how he got them was a mystery
to the conductor, but be finally decided
that his customer was connected
with some banking institution and
that the new money was used to escape
the chances of contracting disease
through the handling of money that
had been in common use.
There are any number of people who
caDnot let go a new coin without experiencing
a pang. They will hold on
to a new half dollar until the iast extremity.
Then there are those who
visit the subtreasury every few days
and get a pocketful of new 10 cent
pieces. They experience a special delight
in passing them out, as they feel
that those who receive them will wonder
"who that man is."?Boston Herald.

C, April 29ih, 1909. Age five months.
Thus another tender bud has been
plucked from earth and transplanted
in heaven. His sweet little life was
like one beautiful strain of music,
and then vanished away. Weep not
not, kind father, loving mother, fond
grandmother, aunts and uncles, your
darling little baby is waiting at the
beautiful gate to welcome you home.
So let us bow in humble submission
to the will of our kind heavenly
Father. May the Lord bless the bereaved
family.
So fades the lovely, L'ooruirp flower,
Frail, soiiliug solace oi an boor;
So soon our transient comforts fly,
And pleasure only biooms to die.
Is there no kind, no healing art
To soothe the auguish ot the heart;
Spirit of grace, be ever nigh.
Thy comforts are not made to die.
Let gentle patience smile on pain,
Till dying hope revive again;
Hope wipes the tear Iroxn sorrow's eye,
And faith points upward to the sky.

BROUGHT BACK OLD TIMES. |
A Tidbit Tl:nt V.'r.st Xot on the Rrs- j
tnuraiit Hill of Fnre.
The force of childhood recollections
and the truth of the quotation, "A
touch of nature makes tne wnoie worm
akin," were shown graphically by a
little incident in a restaurant the other
day. A quiet looking, middle aged
man of prosperous appearance was
eating his dinner when another well
dressed man took a seat opposite him.
After giving his order in a bluff, genial
manner the newcomer took a sip of
water aud faced around. Suddenly a
queer expression came over his face
as he watched attentively the actions
of his vis-a-vis, and apparently without
realizing what he was doing he
blurted out in a loud toue, "Well, well,
well!"
Every one at the table, including the
quiet looking man, started, and the
others, observing the direction of the
speaker's gaze, turned their eyes also
upon him of the quiet appearance to
see what had caused the exclamation.
The man who had come in first was
in the act of spreading sugar over a
slice of buttered bread, and when he
realized that all eyes were turned upon
him he blushed like one detected in a
heinous crime and almost fell off his
chair. It took him a minute or two to
recover, aud then he said to the table
in general:
"I used to get bread and butter and
sugar for being good when I was a
child, and eating it is a habit which I
like to indulge in even yet. I know it
isn't upon the restaurant bill of fare,
but I couldn't resist the temptation."
"I must beg your pardon for my rude
exclamation," replied the other man.
"My mother used to put bread and
butter and sugar iu my lunchbox when
I went to school as an 8-year-old up in
the country town where I was raised.
ana l Da ven t eaien any siuce my
childhood, and I guess I'll join you in
a piece now for the sake of old times."
