The metals also exhibit phospho
rescence, but it is thought that this
is due to an organic layer on their

Alpha 3d, aged six, had been
cautioned by ins mamma after an
appalling break of his in inquiring
the age of a lady with w hom it was
an uncertain and delicate matter,
never to allude to anybody's age or
if the age of a ¡tersoti was men
tioned casually to let the person

younger. Occasion carne within a
few dava for Alpha to put these
Chesterfield ian instructions into
use. An old gcntlemuu visiting the
family remarked, with the naturul
pride octogenarians sometimes show
in their distance beyond the con
ventional threescore and ten, that
he was eighty-seven. "I am sure,
Mr. White,” said tho dutiful child,
"that you don't look more than
eighty-six.” — Boston Transcript.

Time is a relative quantity. Some I
minute* seem like hours, and some
hours seem like minutes. How to
control this flight is beyond most
persons, but the little boy men- ;
tioned below seems to have pro
gressed pretty well for a youngster.
The teacher was surprised to see
that he remained perfectly idle all
through recess and accordingly-
asked him why he did not play.
“ ’Cause,” he said slowly, “ it
makes recess too quick if 1 play,
and 1 want it to la-a-ast!”
