W'h?r? NVom?.i Is Bom.
Captfiin Tuckey was commissioned
by )the British government to exploref
the Kongo region in west Afnco.'early
in the nineteenth century
Onfe of the discoveries made 'oy th
ca"ptain proves that a select few ol
th<* Kongo women h::d rt ached a
stfcl'c beyond the utmost dreams oi
present day woman suffragists. The
eCvereignty of one tribe !ie founfi
to be hereditary iu the female line.
Danediters of the mightv chief were
p .
allowed to choose their own husbands,
over whom they became
"most absolute mistresses and can
even extend their prerogative to the
selling of a refractory spouse to
slavery." Little wonder, reflected
the captain, thet the honor of a
royal alliance "is a matter of but
little emulation among the gallants
of the Kongoe?e court." As the
chief had as many as fifty wives the
demand for eligible partis for royal
?. princesses v,as fairly steady.
A Graceful Getaway.
Mr. Makinbrakes, who had been
urged to stay for luncheon, was trying
to make a graceful getaway.
"Awfully sorry,"' he said, "and evei
so much obliged, but I couldn't
think of it. It's a lot of bother to
have people drop in on you unexpectedly
and to fee! that you've got
' * ? ? *l c . 'iL
to invite them to stay anu eai wim
you?cr?just to be polite, you
know?I mean that it's always a
lot of bother for me, of course, particularly
when?when it happens
to be somebody that you don't care
for anyhow?speaking of myself,
you understand ? or perhaps 1
should say I don't mean myself in
this particular case?well, anyhow,
I have an engagement besides, or it
would afford mc great pleasure, I
assure you, to?to?well, good afternoon,
Mr. and Mrs. Yarney."?
Chicago Tribune.
Circumlocution.
The tiresome preacnor finally finished
his almost interminable sermon.
The congregation had slowly
filed out, save one man. who lagged
behind to speak with the pastor.
"Do you know, minister," he said
in a confidential tone, "that your
sermon this morning reminded me
more of a wheel than anything else
that I could think of?"
"A wheel!" said the startled divine.
"IIow could it do that ?"
"Oh, merely that in a wheel the
, longer the spoke is the longer is the
> tire."?Harper's Weekly.
The L'r.lucky Number.
"1T1C JUtlgO, is uisu a pmau?
thropist in a small but practical
way, was visiting the cells in a pris-'
on, talking sympathetically with the
' jjjisoners. some of whom he had
sentenced.' His efforts were generally
well received, but one man was
quite unmoved by his friendliness
He returned curt replies and resolutely
refused to expand.
"I'm no criminal," he said at last.
"I'm only a victim."
"A victim of what?" the judge
inquired, with friendly interest.
"A victim of the number 13
that's what I am."
"A victim of the number 13?"
"Yes?a judge and twelve jurymen;"

Milton.
Milton was born in 1608 and died
in 1674. His first poem of note,
"On the Morning of Christ's Nativity,"
was written in 1629. The
"Paradise Regained" was finished a
short time before his death. His
literary labors covered forty-five
years. His greatest poem was written
by the hand of an amanuensis,
and his most serious annoyance was ,
the petulance of his daughters, who !
sometimes refused to write when he
was in the mood to compose.
