Three students of philosophy sat on top of a high hill. One was a pessl-, , mist, one an .optimist and the third' had not declared, himself. . While the first Were warmly dis cussing their opposing theories of life, a sudden gust of wind simultane ously lifted off three hats and sent them bowlipg down the hill. The pessimist and the optimist gave chase, but their companion remained calmly sitting on Cop of the hill and ? watched the others running after the hats. Presently each procured his own hat and the optimist picked up also that of the thfrd man. Then they panted back up, the hill, "Whew I " gasped the' optimist, as he handed over the hat to him who still sat on top of the hill. "Ijfuesa you're an optimist, too. .You didn't. - seem to worry any." "Why should I?'k was the dispas sionate reply. - knew -that 'mine own shall, come jto me.' You see, I am a fatalist.'? Llppincott's Maga >(flA Good Alp in the ^House. : Clean air In the house 1b as much a necessity to health as clean water, and, Inasmuch as a considerable por tion of the air In the house rises from the cellar, the cellar must be as cldan and pure as It is desired that the house atmosphere shall be. >. In the ab sence of any ventilating; system win dows and doors must do the work qf bringing in and letting out the air,.The impure air must esdape to make' room for purfe air. Open the windows at the top as well at the bottom, the warmer air at the top of the room Will thus pass out. Keep one window on the'top floor open a little most of the time to provide a general alroscapef for the whole house. When airing bed room^ In th? morning leave the' cup board door open. A sleeping room used as a sitting room during the i day ^ must be given a good airing before * bedtime. The bath room and the kitchen need special ventilation, and the .living room must be well aired the last thing at night, otherwise the used-up air will make its way through j the house. Retort of John Wilkes. In the days when Georgei III.* was king, and 'when his periodic lapses into infirmity of "mind brought about re sumptions of the^egency and changes of policy, 'there was an English lprd chancellor who trimmed his sails to the doctor's bulletins. He was a poll- ; ticianofa type with which we are all ! too familiar. He heard one ay that ? the king was better and would resume the reins of office, and he made ai^ lm- ; ..nppsTohed speech against the regency in the house of lords. In his perora tion he cried, "I cannot forget all that I owe to the bounty of my gracious sovereign; and when I f orget him, may my God forget jne!" *He was impressed with the magnificence of his own ora tory, and could not refrain from re peating the last phfase to Jjohn Wilkes, whom he met In Westminster hall aft er the debate. "Forget youl" said Wilkes. "He'i) you damned first." ? Wall Street Journal. ? : 4 ? , , -/?' Arranging Flowtrs.

BLOOD FEUD IN UPPER EGYPT Natlvee Will Go to Almoet Any Length In the D??ir? to Wr??k Prt r vats V?ngoance. A remarkable Instance of an Inno cent muu being condemned to death for murder and having his Innocence proved almost at the foot of the gal Iowa la rit ported from Upper Egypt. A very rich land owner was found dead on hie dooratep. An Inquiry was opened and hla two brothers .accused a certain O^nran Ma^moud and his son ' Of the* crime, which they swore they saV them commit: The accused -men declared their In nocence, but, despite the desperate and eloquent efforts of their advocate,. Om ran Mfthmoud was ientenced to death and his son to Imprisonment for life, and the date of the execution waa fixed. The advocate sent in a petition for the commutation of the death aentence to the khcdlve. 1 Time paaeed and be heard nothing aa to the fate of his petition. The day bfefore that fixed foi' the execution the advocate determined to approach high er quarters. Just as he was about to proceed on the errand two men were shown Into his office. They were {he brothers of -the murdered man. Tbey had &>me to confess to htm that" their evidence had been false, and that Omran Mahmotfd and hla son were Innocent of the murder of their brother. They had merely aooused them of the crime becauae they want* ed to keep the authorities from sus pecting the true murderer, on whom they intended themaelvea to take ven geance. T fhe real criminal wai""ai once ar rested and on the eve of the execution Omran Mahmoud and his son were ad vised of what had happened. This incident is illustrative of the lengths to ^rhlch the native desire for revenge will- go, It is, of course, not unusual for one man to accuse another of a crime to avenge some long-nursed grudge, but It is surely unique for In nocent men to be accused of a murder because the family, of the murdered person wish to avenge their loaa them selves on the murderer* ' j Noisy Comet. Up on the heights of the Paoiflo oo&Bt cities there was great excite ment over the coming of Haljey'ft com et. For weeks flve-year-old Bobby had heard about It ,One night his father roused him from sleep, and took him in his arms to see it. "Wake up, Bobby! wake up!" said his father. "Look, Bobby! Do you see -the comet?*' Bobby lifted his head and looked sleepily up into the sky. The night was clear and beautiful; -there wad no sound except the' slight rustle of the leaves and the mournful howl of a coy^ ote in the park half-way down the] slope. Nearer and louder came the long-drawn bray of* a donkey. . Bobby's head sank, down on hf? father's shoulder. "O, Bobby," said hjs mother, "wake up and see the comet!," "I seed it," murmured Bobby, and re fused to look any more. The next morning Bobby was play ing in the sunshine, when he heard a sound that made him lift his head, listened attentively. It was the bray of a donkey. Bobby rushed for the house. . "Mother! . mother!" he shouted. "There goes that comet again!"? Youth's Companion. Concerning Dress. Id* Tarbell holds" that women cab better conditions and lower the cost of living by changing their attitude toward drees. , Sho points out that the instinct for adornment was once qiiit^ as evident in male attire as in female. Men have glvan up most of their ornaments, women cllixg .to tholrs. The adoption of as rational and economical standards of clothing among women as now prevail amoy men would save enormous' sums pftiir year. f True, without doubt; but practically unimportant IVpmen will not ad<) >t mascullne rlalnness of dress ? for nMfn won't let them. It would be a dr b .world Indeed if ladies took to pll n blacks, grays, blues and browns Ef fected by their brothers and husband s. In sheer hunger for a bit qt bright ness and gayety, men would go back to crimson knee breeches and em broidered purple cloaks. In one point, however, Miss Tarbell is Correct. Without any loss of ntal beauty In dress, women can end "age of chiffon, and bring back era of substantial fabrics, Thsit; wc be reform Enough for one general ? Exchange. ? \ ?. 1 . ?
