OTHER "ISTS" A POOR SECOND
Pessimist and Optimist Alike Had to
Yield th4 Palm to the Quiet,
Undlaturbed Fatalist.
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

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."

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. ? \ ?.

Here .is a story told by the bisfcpp
of Londog. When he was j^n Torcfts
recently a member of one of his ali
enees told him that he had heard him
speak 14 years before in London, and
remembered only one thing hesal$,
"He told me that 14 years ago,'? said']
the bishop, "I related the story of- an
old woman who fell from a three-story
window in the ^aat end, struck her
head, and was picked up dead,
"He added that I had aal^I wenfcto
afraid Mrs. Jones was not prepSMd,'
and that 1 had received this reply:
'Oh, yes; I know she was, becanw,as
