Tliomns Cooke, known aa "the lav ltitKton nllse,', who lived a life of penury, saving and petty trickery In Islington, a bnroucli of London, Kng land, left a fortune of more than J.'tiNf.ttOtl for his heirs to squabble over after his death. Cooke managed to pet his meals fn-e of cost by the old and yet ever new trVk of falling In a 1 pretended fit In front of a house at j dinner time. Me would he carried Into I a house and then, on making his usual i quick recovery, he naturally would be i asked to share the meal. Among other beggars who loft -for-i tunes after death was Jeremiah Monl ! han. upon whom, when he was about ! to be buried In St. I,ouls. was found a ! key to a safety deposit box. The safe ty box contained $ti(U)0 In perfectly good Interest-benrlng bonds. Another, Marshall McMnrran. ragged recluse, was found In a starving condition In his himhledown shuck on the outskirts. ! of Fvansvllle, Ind. He was taken be- fore a commission for examination ns to pis sanity and when he was searched $22.01)0 was found In the tin- j Ing of tils cnat and In his pockets. j When Hubby "Cleans Up." t A woman looked haggard and worn j the other day and said that she j was resting up after her husband's I day of rest. "I always plan to go I away," she said, "when my husband j has a holiday, hut this time I didn't j knrtw It was coming." "You know," she said with a sigh, ; "he will lie down after breakfast on , such an occasion after he has done j some of the chores. After he has : saioked for a time and read the papers ! he becomes restless and always de I rides to clean the cellar or rearrange V'P c,nLM,'s I" his closet or In his dress er. Then he starts to putter. In about an hour he gets tired If the tusk Is a long one and leaves everything In a heap If It Is In the cellar or stuffs things out o fsight If It Is In the house. I usually have to get a hoy to put the cellar to rights and must take the things out of sight If It Is In the house, back In orderly fashion. Do you know that there have been times when I have had to rescue anything from good rubbers to bulbs of plants from the ash barrel?" Lawrence Telegram. Hawk and Weasel Fight While going through the woods on an Kngllsh estate the other day, a gamekeeper had his attention drawn by loud screeching proceeding from a clearing. On proceeding to the spot to Investigate he noticed a big gray backed crow fly up from the ground, where bundles of fur and feathers ap peared to be locked In combat. On going close he perceived that a hawk was endeavoring to retain possession of two mice, which It had fixed with Its talons, while a weasel was wor rying the hawk, which, however, re tained Its quarry. The fight ceased when the contestants became aware of the keeper's presence. Evidently the crow and weasel were determined that the hawk should not become a food hog. . The Servers and fhe Served. There are Just two classes of people In the world: Those who serve, and those who are served. In the language of the school, there are "plus" people and "minus" people. There are young men who have the "plus" sign, who are giving themselves, their time, and their talent, to make life a little bet ter and a little sweeter for those about them. On the other hand there are young men who carry the "minns" sign, who seem to have come into the world to he ministered unto, to get and to grasp instead of to give and to contribute. Exchange.
