A London music hall belle who had Just successfully "lauded" an old and wealthy nobleman sued an unpopular manager, alleging that he had not paid her sufficiently well for her engage ment at his hall. She won the case and was immediately Inundated with flowery congratulations from her friends, all of whom were glad to 6ee the manager go down. Not content with her victory, how ever, the belle must needs crow over her beaten manager by packing up the choicest of these telegrams and dis patching them to his house, with the Intimation that he might make what use of theai he thought proper. She regretted, this last concession the next morning. Taking her at her word, the manager pasted the telegrams on a board outside the music hall, headed them "What Miss Fllghtie's friends think of her engagement" and left the public to assume which engagement, the professional or the matrimonial, was meant. Then followed such messages as "Good for you, old girl!" "Finned the old horror at lastr" "Don't let him wriggle off the hook!" "Stick to him till you get the. dibs!" "Congratula tions on your splendid haul!" Another action for damages against the manager Is now pending. Sammy Told. Mrs. Smith was showing a visitor a new hattree she had recently pur chased when little Samuel came In and neglected to remove bis hat. Thinking to teach him a lesson she said. "Sam uel, what did I buy that hattree for?" "For $1.98," answered Samuel promptly, "but you said I wasn't to tell anybody." He Could Go. At the death of the Duke of Welling ton the whole diplomatic corps was invited to the funeral at St Paul's. The French ambassador on receiving his invitation was very much upset He hurried off to his colleague of Rus sia, Baron Brunnow, and confided to him the difficulty In which he was placed. "The queen," he said, "expects us to go to St. Paul's to the funeral of the Duke of Wellington. How can I go, considering the injuries which the duke Inflicted on my country? What shall I do?" Baron Brunnow listened gravely to his colleague's exposition and then re plied. "As the duke is dead," he said, "I think you can safely go to the funeral. If you were asked to attend his resurrection I should say refuse the Invitation." Life.

A well known scientist was lectur ing on the sun's heat and in the course of his remarks said: "It Is an estab lished fact that the sun Is gradually but surely losing Its heat and in the course of some 70.000,000 years it will be exhausted.
