Ad exchange says that the letter lke:' is the most unfortunate letter in the Saglish alphabet, becuee it is never ia c*9h, always in debt, and never out of danger. Oar exchange forgets that the aforesaid letter is never in war, but always in peace. It is the beginning of existence, the commencement of ease, and the end of trouble. Without it there would be do meat, do bread, do life, do gospel, no heaven, to hell. This reminds us of the coDundrum. Why is the letter "e'; like the day of judgment ? Because it is the ecd of time and the begginnig of eternity. The Best Prescription for Halaria Chills, and Fever is a bottle of Grove's Tasteless Cnill Tooic.

Kissing is usually accepted as an agreeable fact, and its theory and his- j tory are ignored, but if kissing did not begin with Adam and Eve it began with the beautiful young Greek shepherdess who found an opal on one of 1 the hills of Greece and, wishing to give it to a youthful shepherd whose hands were busy with his flock, let him take it from her lips with his own, says Science Sittings. Thus the kiss was invented, and perhaps the popular superstition against the opal may be traced back to the same incident, for osculation has wrought great tragedies In the world's history. Kissing was once an act of religion. The nearest friend of a dying person performed the right of receiving his soul by a kiss, supposing that it escaped through his lips at the moment of expiration. It is said that kissing was first introduced into England by royalty. The British monarch Y'ortigern gave a banquet in honor of his | cmndinorian oihac at which rnweno. the beautiful daughter of Hengist, was present During the proceedings, after pressing a brimming beaker to her lips, she saluted the astonished and delighted monarch with a kiss "after the manner of her people." The most honorable royal kiss on record is that which Queen Margaret of France in the presence of the whole court one day impriDted on the lips of the ugliest man in the kingdom, Alain Chartier, whom she found asleep. To those around her she said, "1 do not i kiss the man, but the mouth that has 1 uttered so many charming things." The Demon of Indlgention. Cocks and housekeepers have a nobler mission than they as a class seem to be aware of. It is that of feeding the human being and keeping him in health and good working condition. A poorly fed man is likely to be misera ble. Few if any of us are able to rise above conditions. "A sick man, sir," said Dr. Johnson, 'is always a scoundrel." The language is perhaps somewhat strong and lacking in charity, but it contains a good grain of truth. The dyspeptic, who sees the world given over to evil and daily growing worse, is very likely to think aimself unable to swim against the current and to drift to disaster. "We are saved by hope," but without a good iigestion faith, hope and charity are almost impossible. Stories of Children. Teacher?What is velocity, Johnny?
