An Analysis of "Ain't'" Ain't" is nu improper abbrevlatlou of "are not." Hrillsh writers spell It a'u't," which properly Indicates Its derivation. Americans make 11 an In elusive offense, using It for "am not' and "U not," as well as for "are not' It Is unquestionably the worst Instance of slovenliness In the common speech of today. Yet It Is by no means of universal or eveu of common use It will slip oc caslonally from retlned lips, always wllh a tar to the euumlator us well as to the hearer.

"You know, my dear boy," said a sympathizing friend to a man tn trou ble, "that we rvaMy gain by our trials tn life." "That desnda altogether on the kind of lawyer yon get to conduct them." replied the sufferer Brides In India. A bride la India never sees ber hus band uutii after the marriage cere mony. Tbe parents choose the wife for the sou of tbe bouse without con. suiting either party. Sometimes the bride la us young as fourteen.

Investment Bargains. Tbe Investor who picks up desira ble property when everybody Is sell ing and no one buying will have to wait only a reasonable time to secure his reward. I recall when real estate In several large cities was a drug on tbe nmrket. Everybody seemed anx ious to sell and no one to buy, but the buyers In those periods have real ized enormous profits, fur greater than one can get in tbe Stock Excbauge. Tbe man Who has money, even If It Is but a small amount, can always turn tt over to advantage If he will wait for the opiMjrtuuity. Dou't go with the crowd when every one la wild to buy something, but quietly abide an opportunity when everybody Is anx ious to unload and buyers are few. At such a time the bargain counter opens.

Even in England there are relics of the same custom tn the habit among the lower classes of spitting on a coin. No Favors to Beauties.

He would also know whether the baby would be a man or lady when it grew up, wThether its milk was too swreet or too sour or whether it had distem per or colic when it cried, but New lywed's kid is a comic supplement beyond our mental capacity.
