Dr. Winmngton Ingram, the bishop o f London, was once asked to select his favorite clerical story, and he chose the follow ing: The late Archbishop Magee, the famous Irish prelate, was once con cerned with other high ecclesiastics in the presentation o f a memorial to Queen Victoria, and a meeting was held to discuss its terms. The original draft began with, “ Conscious as we are o f our un- worthiness, we humbly pray your majesty,” etc., but some one sug gested that this was inappropriate, coming from bishops. “ Oh, well,” said Archbishop Ma into the silent night.

Tha Burglar. A burglar was one night engaged in the pleasing occupation o f stow ing a good haul o f swag in his bag when he was startled by a touch upon his shoulder, and, turning his head, he beheld a venerable, mild eyed clergyman gazing sadly at him. “ Oh, my brother, groaned the reverend gentleman, “ wouldst thou rob me? Turn, I beseech you— turn from thy evil wavs. Return those stolen goods and depart in peace, for I am merciful and fo r give. Begone!’ And the burglar, only too thank ful at not being given into the cus tody o f the police, obeyed and slunk swiftly off. Then the good old man carefully and quietly packed the swag into another bag and walked softly (so ss not to disturb the slumber o f the inmates) out o f the house and away Qava Good Rsaaom. General Nelson A. Miles during active service one day received a telegram from a subordinate who was on a furlough, but was expect ed back that day. The dispatch read: “ Sorrv, but cannot report today as expected owing to unavoidable circumstances.’* The tone o f the message did not »lease the general, and he wired mck. “ Report at once or give rea sons.’* Back came the answer from s hospital: “ Train off. can’t ride; legs off. can’t walk.” — Ladies* Home Journal. f P lenty o f F resh A ir Insures M ore an d B etter W o rk Ventilators M ade to auit ev ery re q u ire m e n t T h ey e re Sim ple, D u rable an d Storm P ro o f SHEET METAL WORKS Phone White 192 Shop: 402 First Street A Court Fool’s Joka. Scogan, the famous court jester of Edward IV ., dearly loved a prac tical joke. Once he borrowed money of the king and when the day for payment came was unable to make good his word. He feared the king’s anger and decided to appease him by a joke. Feigning death, he had his friends carry his body be fore Edwayd; The king fell a ready victim to the deception and in his lamentations over the supposed dead fool said he freely forgave the debt. Scogan immediately sprang to his feet, exclaiming, “ The news fs so revivifying that it has called me back to life.” Too 8ueoaaaful. t I F. H.

They spend their days doing abso lutely nothing, for they disdain sewing, cooking and general house hold duties. They leave the care o f their children to slaves, and they can neither read nor write. Generally in a rich house there is one chief ¿lave, a sort of house keeper, rather a grand person, whom it is always wise to conciliate if you intend having many dealings with that establishment. In sum mer she is always dressed in purest white. In winter velvets and bro cades are not beyond her reach. She is generally an elderly person, with considerable influence and a good deal o f authority. Then therg is another who is a sort o f maid to the lady o f the house. She is another person with whom it is not wise to quarrel. She is always very much in evidence. She it is who prepares everything for her mistress’ toilet, as also for her master’s. It is the wife’s spe cial duty and privilege, however, when the things are prepared to wait upon her husband when he is dressing, to pour the water oveT his hands and feet during his religious washings, to spread his prayer car pet, to put his favorite dish before him, ana so on. It is difficult to appreciate the exact position o f these Afghan wo men until one sees the way in which mothers are treated by their sons. They may nurse them when they are sick, tend them when they are young, but let the boys grow to be eleven or twelve years old and you will hear them tel] their mother to “ chap sho” (shut up), send them to fetch their caps ana expect to be addressed by the mothers as “ agha aul” or “ agha jon,” which means “ my precious master,” “ master dear.” Kabul mothers seldom have much affection for their children or their children for them. They do not nurse them as babies, and their babyhood is a particularly long one, for they are very backward. They b fiooe to their nurses more than to 2 Steamboat«.

In 1788 Fitch plied a steaml»oat on the Dela ware. apparently without anv knowl edge o f what Jonffray had done in France. It is only fair to say that Fulton himself never claimed the invention and always awarded the honor to Jouffray. i**e< D IS S A T IS F A C T IO N T A K E S F L IG H T when our building materials are used.
