A courtship is like a cigar, the best
part of it goes up in smoke and
only the bitter end remains. Again,
it is like a game of chess. It puts
many a heart in pawn and a move of
a bishop often ends in a mate. It
gives opportunity for many a knightly
moves and queens and kings some- 1
times take part in it.

He Worried the Guide.
There is a practical joker in Chicago,
who deserves to be classed with
the ' Doctor" in Mark Twain's "Innocents
Abroad." The "DoctorV conversation
with the guide in relation
to the mummy is hardly more amusing
than this man's conversation with
a guide in relation to Niagara falls.
He recently maa ? his first trip to the
falls and a guide he hired was trying
to impress him with their magnitude.
"Grand,"' suggested the guide.
"Great!" acquiesced the Chicagoan
stolidly.
"Magnificent!" persisted the guide,
disappointed at the lack of enthusiocm
UULUt
"Finer than the Bear Trap Dam in
the Drainage canal," admitted the
Chicagoan.
The guide looked to see if he was
joking; but there was never a smile.
The Chicagoan seemed to be interested,
but not at all impressed.
. "Millions of gallons a minute," explained
the guide.
"How many in a da}f asked the
Chicagoan.
"0, billions and billions," said the
guide.
The Chicagoan looked across and
down and up, as if gauging the flow,
our? thprc turned awav disinterestedly.
~ ? J w
"Runs all night, too, I suppose,"
he remarked nonchalantly.
The guide was dazed and he had
not recovered when the Chicagoan
left.
Great Men Who Danced,
The ancients regarded dancing as
a necessary accomplishment. Socrates
learned the art in bis old age,
while Plato in his "Commonwealth"
advocated the establishment of dancing
schools. The Romans celebrated
their victories and pastoral festivals
by elaborate dances. They excelled
in pantomime dances, from which
the ballet was evolved. The Emperor
Domitian forbade the senators to
dance and for so doing removed
several members from the senate, j
Grave statesmen and politicians of ;
high degree have excelled in the
oldest of the arts.

the only result of the meeting was that

so indignant that they rose up in their
wrath and drove them out of town.

that's starin' me in the face."
"Begorra," exclaimed his neighbor
sympathetically, "it can't be pleasant
