Will survive any number of disasters
Take Rome as a first example. No
fewer than fen times has she been
swept by pestilence. She has been
burned twice and starved out on six
occasions. > Seven times she has been
besieged or bombarded. But she still
nourishes. Perhaps that is why she is
? called tie Eternal City.

Pinding: For the Lawyer.
Sometimes the jury returns a verdict
for the lawyer, bf which the following
5s a good instance: Mr. John Jones, a
" Isarrister of great influence and ability,
? -svas a leading counselor practicing in
the Welsh circuit Upon one occasion
after a felicitous speech on behalf of
S 3?s client in a criminal case the jury as

are all for John Jones, with costsr

iwho is about to make a deliberate joke.

WASHINGTON SOCIETY.
Disappointments Tlia? Await the
Xew Consressm&3> Wife.
T?ie rural congressman's wife, ambi?
tious to be in society and wno fondly
imagines that election to tile house of
representatives carries with it the gold?
en key to unlock all doors, learns ber
first and bitter lesson when she discov?
ers that position means something, but
persons are everything. Such a woman
comes to Washington full of her own
importance, profoundly impressed with
the greatness of her husband, fondly
believing that the wife of the president
the wives of the members of the cabi?
net, the wives of the senators, will re?
ceive her with open arms, that she will
be invited to the dinners of which she
has read'in. her'local paper, that she
will get her name in the newspapers
and her dresses will be described as
was that of the governor's wife at the
last, charity ball.
Alas -for her disillusionment! She
learns that while a congressman may
be a very big man in his district he is
a very small man in Washington until
he has established his right to "be re?
garded as above the average. If he has
i?noney and tact, he may soon attract at?
tention and cross the golden boundary,
or if- he has no money, but much abili?
ty,, he will reach his destination by an
iother route, but if he has neither one
nor the other, if he is simply an ordina?
ry "member of congress, a very fair
.specimen of middle class, commonplace
-intelligence, the social recognition for
which his wife sighs will never be hers.
-Harper's Magazine..

An Unconcerned Mother.
A curious incident occurred a day or
twoago on an elevated train. Two
women and a boy entered and found
every seat occupied. A kind hearted
young woman, who was seated. - took
tte boy, a* stufdy little fellow of five
years or sq. on heir lap. knowing that it >
is even harder for a child to stand than
for a grown person. She held him for
some time, and then the mother and
friend were enabled to-get seats oppo?
site. Naturally ^the Volunteer nurse
prepared to resign her charge, expect?
ing that bis mother would call him to
her lap.
Not a bit of it? The two talked com?
fortably, without giving a thought to
the stranger; who was still holding the
hoy and was: wondering, amusedly, just
.what kind of mentality was responsi?
ble for the mother's singular thought?
lessness.-New York Tribune.
Literary Coffee. Topers.
The roll of literary men who have
-been passionately fond of that
Coffee, .which, makes the politician wise
. And. see all things through fais half shut
eyes,
is decidedly shorter than that of the
illustrious tea tipplers, although today
/perhaps the ?diff?rence is fast disap?
pearing. Voltaire, the king of wits and
litterateurs, was the king, too, of coffee
drinkers. * In his old age he took fifty
cups a day, which sadly burt his diges?
tion and hastened his death. The ab?
stemious Balzac was fond of the same
<drink, stimulating himself with it fron]
midnight, when he began his literary
work, till claybreak, when, starved and
self forgetful, he would find himself
bareheaded and in dressing gown and
slippers, in the Place du Carrousel, ig?
norant how he came there and miles
from home,-Beverages; . .
The Angler Fist.
? fishing smack had lately a strange
catch off the Eddystone lighthouse. It
was ait enormous specimen of tha t rare
and, curious sea monster the angler
fish, lit measured 4 feet 3 inches long
and 3 feet 2 inches broad. The ca?
pacity of these fish for devouring
large quantities of food is something
^marvelous, but the peculiar thing is
that they change the usual order , of
things, for instead of the bird catching
the' fish, in this instance the fish
catches the bird and makes a meal of
him. Guillemots, seagulls and ducks
have .been discovered in the stomachs
of these gluttons of the deep.

Authors' Temptation?.
The temptation to a writer to reveal
facts under the cloak of fiction is enor?
mous, but the danger is equally great
There are few successful writers at the
present day who have not been accused
of "putting people in their books." Tc
a certain class of readers there is an
immense piquancy added to any char?
acter who may be suspected of being
''real." and the success' that an auto?
biographical "society novel" would
achieve is too brilliant to contemplate.
--Court Jpurnal.
Persistent Gamblers.
In gambling* the Filipinos are the
most persistent race on earth. As soon
as a servant or day laborer gets a small
stake he stops work and gambles to get
rich quick. Monte and cockfighting
are the choice methods. If successful
at play, the Filipino uever works more.
If he loses everything, he will do any?
thing to regain his losses.
The Monocle ls Earmfcl.
No sensible person will ever wear a
single eyeglass unless he is blind of
one eye. Its use means that one eye
is neither employed nor unemployed,
but is engaged in ceaseless though no
doubt unconscious efforts to see as
much as its more favored fellow. This
straining is as harmful as anything
could well be aud cannot fail to lead to
the gravest results.

Hew Birds 51 i prat e.
Many of the smaller and weaker
birds, like the fly catchers, vireos,
wrens, kinglets and bluebirds, in order
to avoid their enemies, the , hawks,
make their long flights by night stop?
ping for rest and food in the daytime.
The larger and bolder ones., like the
hawks and crows, and. those of ex?
tremely rapid flight like the swallows
and humming birds, migrate fearlessly
by day. and there are -some, like the
Canada geese, which travel just when
they choose, by day or night Migrat?
ing birds usually fly at a height of
from one to three miles, and this ena?
bles them to see the rivers, the moun?
tain ranges and the coast line. By
these they direct their course, the old
birds remembering the way they came
before and the young ones following.-Y'
Woman's Horne Companion.
Peculiar Table Customs.
In a book entitled "Domestic Man?
ners of the Middle Ages" we are told
that in those days dinner tables were
covered by a **iiappe," or tablecloth.
Upon it were placed a large saltcellar,
hread and cups for wine, but no knives
or plates. The reason for the absence
of the. knives arose from the common
practice in vogue of people carrying
their own knives in a sheath attached
to their girdle.
In an early work, written by Lyd
gate-"Rules For Behavior at Table"
the guests are told to bring no knives
?nscoured to the table, which can only
mean that each one was to keep his
own knife-that is, the one he carried
with him-clean.
Kruger and the Queen's Ball.
The following letter was written by
tiie private secretary of President Kru?
ger of the Transvaal in reply to an in?
vitation from Johannesburg tb attend
a ball given in ISM in celebration of
Queen Victoria's birthday:
"In reply to your favor of the 12th
inst requesting me to ask his honor, the
state president to consent to the m?k
I lng use of his name as patron on the
occasion of a. ball to be given at Johan?
nesburg oh the 2Cth.inst, I have been
instructed to inform you that whereas
his honor considers a ball as Baal's
service, for. which reasons the Lord or?
dered Moses to kill all" offenders, where
.as such is consequently contrary to his
honor's principles, his honor cannot
consent to the misuse of his name in
connection with such a balL" .
A Strange Feasting Custom*
There was a strange custom in the
Isle of Lewis when the people used to
I gather to the church of St Mulvay at
night each family bringing provisions
and each family furnishing a peck of
malt wMchTwas' brewed into ale. One
who was;chosen for the purpose waded
into the sea up to his middle and pour?
ed out a cup of ale. calling, on a.sea god
called Shoiiy to favor the people
through the coming year.' The people,
after seeing the ceremony, performed.
: returned to the church and then went
io the fields to spend the rest of tu<J
night in rete..ry.-London Si andard.
Books With Leave* Cnent.
A book the leaves of which are un?
cut possesses no .value of a ir. intrinsic
character beyond one that is cut ??3
really less.. For that matter, if it is to
remain uncut, it is as valueless as
it is. useless. There are book col
! lectors, however, who place a pre ari am
upon books with uncut leaves , a ::d so.
commend tlieai -in their advertisements
and circulars. There are persons who
load certain shelves in their libraries
with uncut Dooks. Of course they are
not for use and are not used and art?
valueless except fer keeping.
