Very truly yours, MANNING HRDWMAR COMP'NY HE DIDN'T SWEAR. But a Court Record Quoted Him as Using Strong Language. One day during a term of court at Macon, Mo., Judge Shelton, who was running through a stenographic record of a trial, detected a sentence which reflected upon the piety of appellant's senior counsel, Major B. R. Dysart, an elder in the Presbyterian church. "Major," he said. "I have just been reading this record. I was inexpressi bly pained to note in it some very dis respectful language you used in the presence of the court" A funereal solemnity would fall short of describing the appearance of Dy sart's features. "What do you mean?" he asked. "Of course you may have been excit ed a bit during the trial, major. I know those other fellows were worry ing you like everything, but that is hardly an excuse for usibg cuss words. You should have waited until you got outside. It won't do" "Does your honor mean to intimate that I swore in your presence while trying a case?" demanded the major sternly. "I don't intimate anything, major, but you just look at that." And he banded the transcript to Dysart. There, nestling in the midst of a long argu ment over an objection, printed as plain as type could make it, were the words: "It is a damned obscure injury." It r'equired nearly five minutes for the major to think out how it happen ;,d. Then he grabbed a pen, shoved it into the ink bottle and viciously scratched out the ribald sentence, over which he wrote: "It is a damnum absque injuria," meaning a damage without an iijury. -Kansas City Star. SHOPPING IN CAIRO. Where Bargaining Is the Perfume, the Poetry of Trade. "I entered Sidi Okba's shop in Cairo," said the man with the oriental labels n his luggage, "and a handsome carpet eaught my eye. 'What is the price of that?' I asked. "'That carpet is not for -sale,' Sidi kba answered. 'I bought it at great 2ost for my own delectation only. How beautiful it is! But will not monsieur partake with me of coffee and ciga rettes?" "I partook.. The next morning I was In that neighborhood again, and Sidi came forth and saluted me. He had changed his mind about retaining the earpet. Allah forbade selfishness among the true believers, and since I desired the thing he'd let me have it for $1,000. " 'I'll give you $10,' said I. "He fell back, almost fainting; then in a weak, pained voice he offered me coffee again. "Next day when I turned up he came down to $900, and I went up to $15, and we drank moie coffee and, smoked. Next day he dropped to $800, and I rose to S17.50. We were very cheerful over the coffee and tobacco that day. We had the carpet spread before us to ad mire. It was evident that we would. strike a bargain yet, and just before 1 left Cairo we did strike a bargain. The carpet became mine for $50. It would have cost $2i50 at home. As we shook hands in farewell Sidi Okba said: "'I love a good bargainer like your self. Bargaining is the bloom, the per fume, the poetry of trade. I adore it'" -Exchange. Another Kind of Guest. "Won't you please write in my guest book?" said a woman to the friends she had entertained at dinner. And she brought out the treasured volume, with its record of hospitality. The names were inscribed. "Why, what's this?" said the mod ern Eve as the pages were fluttered be fore the book was returned to its own er. "There are lots and lots of names In the back and all in your handwriting too." The hostess laughed. "Do you want to know what these names are?' she asked. "Well, I suppose I might make a confession. They are names of guests, all right, but of another kind. It's the list of the servants I have had since my houseke, .'ng experiences be gan."-New York 1-ress. Apply It to Your Life. Have you ever watched the exceed ingly delicate and yet firm pressure of the hand of a skillful tuner? He will make the string produce a perfectly true note, 'vibrating in absolute accord with his own never changing tuning fork. The practiced hand is at one with the accurate ear, and the pressure Is brought to bear with most delicate adjustment to the resistance. The ten sion is never exceeded, he never breaks a string, but he patiently strikes the note again and again till the tone is true and the ear is satisfied, and then the muscles relax and the pressure ceases. Barnum's Ready Retort Barnum once appeared at Oxford to lecture on "Humbug." The rowdy students would not give him a hear ing. At length, in a momentary lull, he shouted, "Then you don't want to hear anything about humbug?" "We don't!" was the answer in a roar. "Well," retorted Barnum, "I've got your money, and the:'e's no humbug about that!" The disturbance came to a sudden finish, and Barnum proceeded in peace. Broke the. Law. "What got me into trouble?

I used to be very much afraid that my children while playing with others would be exposed to some contagious disease, and they were constantly on the lookout for trouble of thtis kind. One day little Louise, aged four, came rashing in from the street where she had been playing with a crowd of children. In a very excited manner she burst out, "Well, mother, two of the Meyers children have something, but sister says she don't think we'll catch It, though." "Well, what is it, darling?" I asked.

DRANK OF A TRICKY MASCOT. rhere Were Lively Times on Deck When the Big Monkey Got Himself Mixed Up With Hot Pitch and Gun Cotton and Took a Trip Aloft. We were making passage from Nor-: olk, Va., to Lisbon, Portugal, in the nited States steamship Alliance. It ras shortly after 4 o'clock. I had just -one to my room for a pipeful of to acco when the sailmaker came to my oor with a scared face. "Got any wa er in your room. Mr. Du Bois?" he aid. "Yes; here's a pailful." "For God's sake give it to me quick! he sail room's afire, but don't say nything! I'll have it out In a min te" I handed him the pail of water, but ras not going to take any chances of . fire on a man-of-war with fifteen ons of powder not six feet away, so ran to the ship's bell and rang the' ire alarm as furiously as I could. In ss time than it takes you to read this and grenades were being thrown and ater was pouring into the now sti ing mass of burning canvas. Men umped in among the great bundles of urled sails and passed them out, and, then one could not endure the smoke ny longer another took his place. At st th'e danger was over, and I began o look around and take stock of the ffair. I had often wondered what I would] Lo in case of a fire on the ship. I ould save my watch. A watch is Lever used at sea, so it hung from a took over my desk. I would be sure o take along my best girl's picture, .nd there were a few other little be ngings which must not be parted ith. Well, when the thing was over, that had I gathered together? Not ny watch. not my best girl's picture, tot anything that I had thought I ould. but I had filled my pockets rith extract of beef and nothing else. )umb instinct, no: a thought of any hing but of something good to eat in ire extremity. How did the fire start? The sail aker, whose duty it Is to keep the ails in good order, is privileged to go o the sail room at any time, but he is upposed to always carry a peculiar intern, consisting of a common candle et in a globe of horn, sufficiently >paque to give enough light for his eeds there. The candle does away rith any danger from oil 'that might e spilled and catch fire, and the globe, eing of horn instead of glass, pre ludes a possibility of -breakage. This ime the sailmaker, desiring a little ore light, had taken out the candle. t had dropped from his fingers away own into the bight of a furled sail, nd the cloth had caught fire. There,1 nas a terrible mess of burned and moky sails in there, and they were 11 hauled up on deck and spread out a the sun to dry and to find out just rhat the damage was. In the bottom f the room on the floor one of the nen found the stump of candle ana& ut it in his pocket. The sailmaker ras a favorite on board, and the offi ers never found out how the fire tarted. They thought they knew. The captain "broke" the saimaker hat Is. reduced him to the decks. But te couldn't prove anything. So after .week or so he restored him to his old ank. We came near having another fi~re nce, and, while It might have been 'ery serious, It was really funny. We had several hundred :pounds of :un cotton on board, and, fearing that t might have gathered dampness, the unner's gang got up the cases from he magazine, pulled It all out and pread it on the warm decks far aft in he sun to dry. Away forward the oatswain's mate and his gang were msy with tar pots and ropes puttIng ome of their stuff In order. We had on board a mascot in the hape of a monkey, one of the largest have ever seen. He would - stand uite three feet high, and bd was the 'ery Old Nick for mischief. He was a ret nuisance, that monkey, and must lways be doing what be saw any of he men doing. Well, Mr. Monkey saw the men with he warm tar, and nothing would do )ut he must have a hand in the job Iterally, so he ran forward and dipped is hands into the pot and. in a minute as all besmeared with the sticky tuff; then he bolted aft as fast as he ould scamper and rolled in the gun otton, got himself well covered with t and ran aloft into the rigging. Sail >rs have a saying, "The devil to pay tnd no pitch hot," but the pitch was iot this time, and the condition was etually appalling. Some of the men an after him, but it was impossible to ~atch him. He was too shrewd for hat. The gunner's gang gathered up hat gun cotton as men never did so 'ast in their lives before and put It ack into the cans, for had that fool nonkey dropped from aloft into It he would have blown the ship to king lo come. They got It out of the way vithout disaster, but for several hours ~hat creature sat up there picking gun otton from himself and throwing it >verboard.

There were worse terrors than the natinee hat for the man who sat be aind a lady in the seventeenth cen hiry theater, as recalled by the Lon Ion Chronicle, At least, we may sup ose so from Mr. Pepys' experience on an. 28. 1661, when he saw '"The ost Lady" for the second time. Nine lays earlier that play had not pleased him much, partly perhaps because he was "troubled to be seen by four of our office clerks, which sat in the half rown box and I in the 1s. Gd." But on the second occasion the play did "please me better than before, and here, I sitting behind In a dark place, a lady spit backward upon me by a mistake, not seeing nae."

When the .tomb of Palls, son of Evander, who is mentioned by Virgil, l was discovered about the twelfth'cen- th tury by a countryman digging near ha Rome, it is said that a lamp was still ou burning over his head, which must have been lighted more than 2.000 ears before. Baptista Porta in his treatise on nat- ch ural magic relates that about 1550 a th marble sepulcher of the Roman period an was discoveredon an island near Na- an ples. On opening the room was found i vial containing a burning lamp. The lamp became extinct on breaking the ial and exposing the lamp to the open ha iir. It was supposed that it had been do :oncealed before the Christian era, and those who saw it reported that the lamp emitted a splendid flame. Sh In 1550 a remarkable lamp was na found near Atestes. Padau, by a rus- to tic, who unearthed a terra cotta urn tic ontaining another urn in which was or l Jamp placed between two cylindrical It vessels, one of gold .and the other of us silver. Each was full of a very pure It iquid by whose virtue the lamp had r been kept shining upward of 1.500 is rears.

Of course when an earl dies his widow remains a countess, but with the unwelcome ad :tion "dowager," which often is mis- Br leading as far as her age is concerned. Thackeray, although he professed good breeding, looked on dowager ad uchesses as fair targets for sarcasm. ho So did Du Maurier, though the only Ca offense of the poor women was that m4 they had lost their husbands. It is a th, double blow to a woman of title when fe her husband' dies, for if grief leaves Sol her time for reflection she realizes ml that, no matter how young she may tr( be, she is relegated to the rear in the es social procession. The new duchess or of marchioness or countess steps into the wj limelight, and the dowager is lucky to cl: find a place in the last row of the chorus, for the very term implies old m womanhood. and in most cases she t only wastes time if' she combats the I impression. ph Ordinary widows may have better w. chances for matrimony than debu- bii tantes, though that's doubtful. Dow- El agers seldom contract new marriages, hu for few men have courage to lead them to the altar. So in all the affairs of society they make the best of the custom that dictates they shall follow meekly in the wakes of their flattered ch daughters-i-law.-.New York Press. of The Notary In France. ha The notary is a most important per- bm son in all smal country towns in t France. Everybody consults him, from s the big landowner when he has dis- gc cussons with his neighbor .over right ch of way to the peasant who buys a few he neters of land as soon as he has any ra surplus funds. We were constantly g having rows with one of our neighbors fo: over a little strip of wood that ran up no into ours. Whenever he was angry sh with us, which happened quite often (we never knew why), he had -a deep, ugly ditch made just across the road which we always took when we were ha riding around the property. The woods so were so thick and low, with plenty of to thorns, that we could not get along by ] keeping on one side and were obliged ro to go back and make quite a long de- ri, tour.
