Anne Boleyn’s Clock.
The weights of a clock at Windsor
caatle bear on them “The Most Hap
py*.’’ and the clock is further In-
scribed with the motto. “Dteu et moo
droit.” and the letters “H. A..” en
twined In true-lovers’ knots. This ex-
qulsltely-mnde clock—only four inches
; deep and ten Inches high—was a gift
1 from Henry VIII to Anne Boleyn on
! her wedding day. It was In the pos
session of Horace Walpole, and Queen
Victoria paid $r>5l for It when the con
tents of Strawberry Hill were sold la
1842.

Women In the borne used to b*

The housekeeper who saved heise'.L
who did not dust every few moments,
scrub on her bunds and knees and do
such tasks, was called le?v. The be
lief now Is that the most Intelligent
housekeeper, the one who studies ev
ery new invention and saves every
step and motion, Is the most conscien

It is practicable.
Pronounced Stinginess,
I was visiting a friend In her new
farm home. Her nearest neighbor was
a millionaire’s son, trying practical
farming on a well-improved farm. He
had a large peach orchard, small fruits
and beautiful roses. He brought us
two roses one day and two peaches
the next day. Neighbor women of
fered to put up his berries on shares,
j but as he was afraid they would be
! getting the best of the bargain, he let
| the fruit dry up on the vines.—Ex
change.
Bad Temper.
It Is an almost Invariable rule that
complaints are mutual. There are two
■Ides to eve r y bad temper. The truth
Is. bad temper is due less to the oc-
corrence n t Irritating things than to
the occurrence of things to Irritable
people.
