' DIDN'T NEED IT.
Why a Scotch Farmer Refused a Por
tion of Dessert.
Coau: the funny sayings and inci
dents at the tenants' dinners in Scot
land 2.e collected they would make an
unriv2 led book of humor. Mistakes of
amusing and sometimes embarrassing
natur.' occur frequently at such func
tions. One story is told of a guest at
a Scottish tenants' dinner who tasted
ice cream for the first time on that oc
casion. He pushed a large spoonful of
the frozen mixture into his mouth and
jumpt I from his chair with agony ex
pressc "1 on his face. He let out a yell
and cried out, "Ow, ow, ma rotten
tooth:" and could not be induced to
eat a:y more.
At another Scottish affair of the kind
a gool old farmer was seated next to
the hostess. She served him a bit of
savory omelet, which seemed to cause
the old man deep disappointment. His
idea of an omelet had always been a
desse-t with sugar or fruit or jams,
and after tasting the sample before
him be turned to the hostess and said,
"Wee', ma lady. I canna compliment
you on your puddin's."
The late Duke of Buccleuch told a
story of a tenant at one of the farmers'
dinners on his estates who was asked
by the duchess if he would take some
rhubarb, a dish she was fond of. The
farmer was surprised, but answered
politely, "I'm muckle obleeged to your
grace. but I dinna' need ."
FINDINGS NOT KEEPINGS.
Lost Articles Are Always Crying Out
For Their Owners.
When one is on the public thorough
fare or in the street car or train or
boat and picks up an object that is
valuable, is it his?
True, he may find something which
is too small and trifling to warrant
searching to find the owner, such as a
handkerchief, a pair of gloves, etc.
But when he finds something of value
it is not his until he has done every
thing in his power to find the owner.
The street railways and trains are
so systematized today that if. when
one fnds an object of value, he re
turns it to the company's representa
tive it is almost sure to cafch up with
its owner. Every person of intelli
gence knows that the first place to
inquire for it is at the lost and found
department.
When, however, one is on the street
and finds something which, if he lost
it himself, he would very much like to
have, returned, there are the columns
of a newspaper in which to advertise.
If he fails to find the owner after
this, then he can rightfully call it his
own and have a clear conscience. bu't
if he avoids looking over the lost and
found columns and fails to do his part
tov-.rd finding the owner he is almost
as dishonest as if he took the goods.

Serious For Once.
An army captain on returning home
from India brought with him a goodly
stock of souvenirs. Among them was
a pair of laughing jackasses, which he
intrus Led to one of the sailors. Tom
Pinch.
Alas! The unaccustomed shipboard
life did not agree with the creatures,
and in spite of all Tom's care they
pined and finally died.
When he discovered the catastrophe,
Tom was in despair
"I daren't tell the captain!"
"Don't shirk it, mate," said his pal.
"Break It t6 him gently. You'll find
it'll be all right."
The advice seemed sound, and Tom
sought the gallant captain.
"Scuse me, sir," he said, "you know
them -things below-what you call
larfin' jackasses? Well, sir, they ain't
got nutfin to larf at this morning."

* His Choice of Weapons.
31. Victor Noir, an illiterate bully
of the time of the second empire, for
no real reason whatever sent a French
statesman a challenge to fight a duel.
Noir was a densely ignorant man,
and nearly every word in the challenge
was misspelled. The statesman re
sponded with the following letter:
"Dear Sir-You have called me out
without any good reasons. I have
therefore the choice of weapons. I
choose the spelling book, and you are
a dead man." The duel was never.

Why Naval Uniforms Are Blue.
Naval uniforms all the world over
pretty v. eli are navy blue. The Brit
ish fashion in this matter has been the
rule waih maritime people in general.
That blue was ever selected for the
king's naval service was a fortuitous
happening. When in 1747 the ques
tion o'f uniform was being considered
the eclor selected had very like to
have bern French gray laced with sil
ver. While the king was still not
quite decided he saw the Duchess of
Bedford in a riding habit of blue
faced with white and enlivened with
gold l.ee. It was a revelation. Here,
the ki::g declared, was the uniform for
-his sea service officers, and no more
was h'ird of French gray. The navy
took to blue, and every other navy has
MACARONI IN ITALY.
To the Working People This Food Is
a Luxury.
Every one pictures the Italian as
eating macaroni. What if I tell
you that the Italians, taking them as a
pc.pie. do not eat macar-ui, and yet
this is virtually true. MIacaroni in Italy
costs 4 to S cents a pound, and it is
too costly for common use. It is about
as accurate to say that the Italians
'ive on macaroni as that the Ameri
cans live on turkey. Macaroni to the
working Italian is a luxury. You often
see young fellows on a holiday in
dulging in a dish in a restaurant or
before a street cook stand about as
Americans would eat ice cream. A
customary workman's dinner is a hunk
of bread broken apart and "buttered"
with a few traces of tomato sauce. As
for meat, it is the greatest rarity. and
the only drink they can afford is wa
ter. which has the advantage of being
cheap and filling. The Italians at
home are not onv temperate, but ab
stemious. Win. and beer and even
tea, coffee and chocolate are forbidden
to them on account of the expense. In
all Italy we saw no one under the in
iluence of liquor. So also there is
practically no smoking. The govern
ment has a monopoly of the tobacco
business. buys its supplies in quanti
ties direct in America and elsewhere
and charges three prices for every
thing. The few tobacco shops keep a
piece of smoldering tow tied at the
doorpost, so that patrons and passers
may light their cigars by it.-Los An
geles Times.
WOMAN'S WIT UNCERTAIN.
As When This Wife Failed to Ap
preciate Hubby's Pleasantry.
"Don't always rely upon the ready
wit of a woman," said the man who
is sometimes pleased to consider him
self an oracle. "That ready wit busi
ness is sometimes prone to get way off.
"For example. my wife and' children
had been staying in the country ;or
several weeks, and I was regular wIth
my letters. as every loving husband
should be. Finally on the day before
my wife was to start for home I con
cluded my letter to her with these
words:
"'This will be the last letter I will
write to you for a long, long time.'
"When I got down to my office the
next morning I found a telegram from
my wife waiting for me. 'What on
earth do you mean? read the dispatch.
"Later a registered letter came from
her. She had blotted almost every line
with tears. What it was all about I
could not imagine. .
"Then my telephone bell rang, and
when I answered I heard my wife's
voice speaking over the long distance
phone.
"'Oh, John!' said she. 'Is that really
you? I thought you had committed
suicide!'"-Washington Post. *
Remedy For Choking.
"Raising the left arm as high as you
can will relieve choking much more
rapidly than the act of thumping one's
back," said a physician, "and it is
well that every one should know it,
for often a person gets choked while
eating where there is no one near to
thump him. Very frequently at meals
and when they are at play children
get choked while' eating, and the cue
tomary manner of relieving them. Is to
slap them sharply on the back. The
effect of this is to set the obstruction
free. The same thing can be brought
about by raising the left hand of the
child as high as possible, and the re
lief comes much more quickly. In
happenings of this kind there should
be no alarm, for if the child sees that
older persons or parents get excited
the effect Is bad. The best thing is~
to tell the child to raise its left arm,
and immediately the difficulty passes
away." ________
The Popping Stone.
"The popping stone" marks the spot
where Sir Walter Scott asked Miss
Carpenter to marry him. It is situated
in the beautiful valley of the Irthing.
at Gilsland, an inland watering place
near Carlisle. The popping stone is
visited by many thousands during the
summer months, and it is sa id many a
laggard lover has had his courage
screwed up to popping point at this ro
mantic spot. T.' the immediate neigh
borhood may -.so be seen "Mumps

"Guy Mannering." while a little far

Hardships of the Very Poor.
Little Marion, having few real play
mates, has supplied herself with sev

has many surprising experiences. Her
mother recently overheard her playing
with her large family of dolls and en

"Yes. Mrs. Smif," she said, heaving
a deep sigh, "we are poor, terribly
poor. We are so poor that I have to
spank my babies to keep them warm."

Clock and Watch Freaks.
"A watch isn't exactly dirty when it
requires cleaning." says a watchmaker
"It may need cleaning when it hasn't
even been worn.
"A common cause of this is that the
oil in the works has dried up and be
come sticky, causing the watch to go
slow or even to stop. In this case it
not only wants cleaning, but also the
addition of fresh oil.
"The' best oil for this purpose is ob
tained from the jawbone of a porpoise
or kindred fish. Many watchmakers
mix their own oil from various kinds.
"Clocks also stop for no apparent
reaso. During a thunderstorm, for
instuce, a clock may stop, only resum
ing work when minutes. days or- even
weeks have passed.
"Thunderstorms. again, have been re
sponsible for the restarting of old
clocks which have apparently retired
altogether from active service."-Lon

BEETHOVEN.
The Composer's Own Story of How He
Became Deaf.
Charles Neate. on a visit to Vienna,
was either commissioned by certain
Euish authorities to induce Beethoven
to visit England or was persuading
him to do so on his own account. and
as an allurement he spoke of the su
periority of the English aurists in their
treatment of ear disease and held out
hopes that were Beethoven to consult
them he might at least find some sort
of relief. Beethoven shook his head.
"No." he said, "I have consulted all
kinds of doctors and followed their
prescriptions. I shall never be cured.
I will tell you how the thing happened.
"I was writing an opera. I had to
deal with a very tiresome and capri
cious tenor. I had already written two
great arias to the same words, neither
of which pleased him, and also a third.
which he did not care for the first time
he tried it. although he took it away
with him. I was thanking heaven I
had done with him and had begun to
settle myself to something else which
I had laid aside. I had hardly worked
at it half aii hour before I heard a
knock at the door, which I recognized
as that of my tenor.
"I sprang up from my table in such
a rage that as the man came into the
room I flung myself upon the floor, as
they do on the stage" (here he threw
up his arms and gesticulated in illus
tration). "'jut I fell upon my hands
When I got up-I found I was deaf,
and from that moment I have remain
ed so. The doctor said I injured the
nerve."-Diehl's "Life of Beethoven."
GRAFT IN 1USSIA.
Removing the Difficulties In an Army
Officer's Transfer.
A young Russian ofiacer wished to be
transferred to another regiment and
took his request in person to one of
the lights of the Russian general staff.
That powerful officer shook his head
and declared the matter very difficult
to arrange-almost impossible. Then
his glance fell suddenly upon the shoes
of the lieutenant. To the amazement
of his visitor, the senior oficer said
that the lieutenant's shoes were not
nearly good enough for an officer and
that he wculd strongly advise him to
buy new shoes of a shoemaker whose
address he gave. Then, telling his vis
itor to return in eight days. he dis
missed him. The latter was clever
enough to realize that he could not re
turn without the new shoes, so he hur
ried to the shoemaker. On hearing
who had sent him the shoemaker said
that the lieutenant could have the
shoes in five days for the sum of $250.
Much astonished, the officer went to a
comrade for advice. He was told to
pay half of this sum at once and the
rest when his shoes were finished.
This the officer did, and, wearing his
new boots, he duly kept his appoint
ment with the general staff officer and
learned to his joy that all the "grave
difficulties" in the way of his transfer
had been successfully removed.
His Hobby.
One man with an odd hobby isn't a
person who gets much mail. and what
he has or expects to have he can keep
in mind very easily. Probably he
never had a letter which 1 -ent astray.
Yet every time he sees in the news
papers the list of advertised mail sent
out from time to time by the general
postoffice in New York he turns at
once to the initial letter under which
his name comes and runs carefully
through the list, He never yet has
found: any letter that might be sup
posed to be for him and, furthermc re,
hasn't found any that might be for any
of his relatives.
He takes an odd pleasure in doing it.
however, something with that eager
ness which impels a _ man to griib
through a packet of old letters in
hopes that he may come rupon some
rare variety of stamp. Really, if ever
he found his name in the. list it proba
by would kill his enjoyment of the
hunt forever thereafter.-New York
Anticipated Cause For Sorrow.

At night they were put to bed earlyr.

"What is the matter, children?" ask

"From under the bedclothes Ina sob
bed out, "May won't give me any of
her peanuts."'
"But May has no peanuts," replied
her aunt.
"I know that," sobbed Ina, "but she
said if she did have p'eanuts she
wouldn't give me any."-Delineator.
Sufficiently Occupied.
A story is told of a colonel in Gen
eral Lee's division in the late civil war
who sometimes indulged in more apple
jack than was good for him. Passing
him one evening leaning against a tree,
the general said:
"Good evening, colonel. Come over
to my tent for a moment, please."
"S-s-cuse me, g-g-en'raL, s-s-cuse
me" replied the colonel. "It's 'bout all
I can do to stay where I am."-Phla

The Right Foot Foremost.
Putting the right foot foremost was
an old Roman ordination originally
regulating the entry of persons into a
house or other building and based upon~
the supposition that the left was un
lucky. A boy was kept at the door tc
ee that no one entered the house "left
foot first." The phrase quoted is thus
seen to be very antique.
It is the wise head that makes the
Still tongue.-Lucas.

Brides and Wet Weatner.
A Breton bride rather likes to have a
wet wedding. It is held to signify that
all her tears are now shed and that
she v:ill therefore have a happy mar
ried :ife. I know of no similar belief
in the British isles.
The Erza of Simbirsk call the day
before the wedding the weeping day,
and the bride and her girl friends weep
all they can, with the idea, it would
seem, of getting the mourning of life
over so that only joy may remain.
The Badagas of the Neilgherries at
tain the same end by sousing the bride
with water. Some Greek tribes have
a similar belief in the virtue of a
drenching bringing good fortune.
The Omnipresent Rose.
Every continent on the globe, with
the exception of Australia, produces
wild roses. There can be little doubt
that the rose is one of the oldest flow
ers in the world, perhaps grown from
the wind blown seeds in paradise. In
Egypt it is depicted on numbers of
early bas-reliefs, dating from 3000 to
3500 B. C. Rosewater, or the essence of
roses, is mentioned by Homer in the
"Iliad," and the flower is spoken of in
the Proverbs of Solomon.
