"And now a word about patient at may feel like reading," said t i..' physician to the nurse. "Whe;::t: ask for sor.2ething to read be sure to give thema continued stories-alway:3 continued stories." "'Is that wisey' she ventured to re monstrate. "Won't the e:xcit:ner.1 over what is going to happen in the' next number have a bad eiseet:" "No. Even if it does it wi:1 be coun-~ teracted by the encourageme~nt. S:ck people have queer fancies. Gne of tim~ queerest pertains to literature. Feedi a patient's mind with nothing but shoit stories and he will certainly get into his head that he is going to die so soon that it isn't worth while to start him on a long one, And he will droop accordingly. But give him only yarns of the to-be-continued-in-our-next va riety and he will take it for tgranted that you expect him to get well so he can finish the story, and he will i'erk up amazingly. Just try it." The nurse did try it and found that the doctor's theory was built on a sure foumdation.-New York Times. Lion Signs In England. In the middle ages ;lhe co'untry houses of the nobility in England when the owners were absent were aused as hostels for travelers. The familyt :trms always hung in front of the hous and gave it a popular name among travelers. who called a lion ".ele" or azure, simply "red" or "blue." As these nr-intimations of good cheer and entertainment innkeepers adopted th.. - idea. -Lions have alwvays been :und are' nowe" v'ery favorite signs in England .ions white. black, red. browvn, golden. yellow-red being the most common. Probably the Red Lion or'iginatexl with the badge or John of Gaunt. duke of Laincaster. who married the daughter of Don I'edro. king of Leon and 'as tile, and who adopted the lioni ram -pant gules of Leon to represent his claim to the throne. Undrx JRichar'd .and John lions becanme the set tkd :arms of Englan~d and were genIeraly used by those who could ilnd any claim. Rook and Gull. The rook appear's to have bece the bird whose nme stands for swin die-rs in a distinctly unfair way. the London Chronicle says. At first "rook" meant a dupe, theni the verb "to) rook" cameiI to meani to cheat, and out of this was evolved --rook," a cheater-a complete topsy turvy p~rocess. It is curious that the same thing has not happened to "'gull." Here also the yerb came from the substantive mean ing a dupe, and, as the gull strikes one as rather a knowing bird, one mnight have expected the same evolu tion as .in the case of the rook. It should be observed. however. that ".runll." a dupe, did aot refer spec'ially to the seagull, the word having for neriy meant a young bird of any kiud. In Elizabethan English it signi fied a callow youngster who wished to be thought smart. CASTOR!IA For Infants and Children.

An ingeniou.< Vi u:: man once took Ihis fiancee ta chi:: in a small our try village, ::nd when the time for ' collection" came~c around he rather c ostentatiously displayed at silver dol lar. Presuming upon their engaige mecnt, the young woman pilaced a re straining handl upon the arm of -her fiance. "Don't ibe so extravagant. George'" she exelaimed. "Oh, that's nothing." he repldied. "I always make a point of giving a dol lar when I go to a strange church." Just then the deacon came with the plate, and George dropped a coin. Everything seemed favorable, and the young man? beamed with a sense of generosity. Then the minister gave out the notices for the week and con eluded with the wholly unexpected an nouncemenit of the day's collection. "The collection today." said he, "amounted to t)5 cents.' George hadn't much to say all the way to his fineees home.-H-oustonl Chronicle. The Origin of Dunce. A dunce is named after Duns Scotus, the chief and leader of the schoolmen who were in opposition to what was called "'the new' learning" in the six' teenth centrary. It is easy to see how readily convertible the term would be. Any - opponent of the new learning would lie apt to be referred to as a Dusman. or. more briefly, as a Duns, to indiente that he held the views of which Dunis Scotus was the most cmi neunt representative. But as the time went on and the new learning triumph ed to call any one a Duinsmnan or a dunce would be equivalent to describ ing him not merely as opposed to a certain set of doctrines, but as Inca pable of learning and enlightenment. It is certainly- hard upon D~uns Scotus, as Archbishop Trench has remarked, that he, "the subtle doctor" b~y pre emiinence. the "'wittiest of the school divines." as llooker ter-ms him. should have his name handed down to future ages as a synonym for invincih'le stu-; pidity. ________ A Matter of Breed.
