“TVotnett viewing another woman’»
wedding prevents fay things which
are likely to be misinterpreted,” said
the bachelor who declares he hates
weddings, but always goes when In­
vited. according to the W ushlngtou
Post, ' and other things which no fa
vorable interpretation would make
complimentary to the bride or to the
givers. It's the way of the »ex, I sup­
pose. Now. why Is It that the most
common remark of the women who
are inspecting the layout of «liver aud
cut glass and other gifts more or less
useful Is, What n lot of presents she
got?* They don’t mean anything un­
kind. but the Inference un uninitiated
eavesdropper would draw is that they
wonder why she got so many, as if by
rights she shouldn’t have had half so
nianv. Of course they vary the re­
mark. ’What a lucky girl!’ says one.
as if she would like to add. Some per
sons have too much luck. And an­
other says. T wonder where they all
came from.’ Implying almost as if the
bride couldn’t have enough friends to
make so many gifts and must have
sent some of them to herself just to
making a showing.”
World’s Cleanest Soldiers.
The Japanese soldier considers it a
disgrace to be dirty. Soldiers of other
nationalities are not always overpar­
ticular. but. as Mr. Kipling has sung:
Oh. east Is east, and west Is west, and
never the twain shall meet.
However, the Japanese military man
Is not provided by a grateful and be­
neficent government with a portable
bath, so when on active service he has
to set his wits to work in order to ob­
tain the necessary adjuncts to his ab­
lutions.
The Chinese, for reasons of their
own. manufacture long and large Jars,
whose diameter Is that of a western
main drain. It occurred to a bright
Japanese that one might just as well
have a bath standing up as lying
down.
Accordingly he and his comrades in­
terred a jar. built a furnace beneath
It and filled It with water. Soon a
boiling hot bath bubbled before them.
Imitators sprang Into being and sub­
sequently Into similar baths.—Bystand­

Had Been Anticipated.
A London comjioser was one summer
engaged on the score of an opera, and
as the weather was very hot he
worked with the windows of bls study
open. This fact was taken advantage
of by his uetgbbor, a lady, an accom­
plished musician, with a very quick
and retentive ear. to play upon him a
harmless practical joke.
One morning he completed and tried
over a new march, and the lady on the
same afternoon seated herself at her
grand piano, opened her windows and
rolled forth the air fortissimo, The
composer rushed distractedly Into his
garden to his wife and, tearing his
hair In anguish, cried out:
“My dear. 1 give It up! I thought 1
had composed an original tune, but it
must be a delusion, for my grand
march—my chef d'oeuvre, as I thought
It—Is only a reminiscence and is al­
ready the property of some music pub-
Usher!”
They Sat Down.
One night at a theater some scenery
took fire, and a very perceptible odor
of burning alarmed the spectators. A
panic seemed to be Imminent when an
actor appeared on the stage.
“Ladles and gentlemen,” he said,
"compose yourselves.
There Is no
danger.”
The audience did not seem reas­
sured.
"Ladles nnd gentlemen,” continued
the comedian, rising to the necessity
of the occasion—"confound It all—do
you think If there was any danger I'd
be here?"
The panic collapsed.
England's Mother Church.
The oldest frequented church in
England Is probably St. Martin's. at
Canterbury, and you may call It the
mother church of England. Walk up
from the outskirts of the city and you
will pass the font which gave baptism
to King Ethelbert 1.300 years ago. The
font still stands, the worshipers still
mount the slope, and one considers
whether It was Augustine or Bertha
who dragged the king and husband to
that font.—Iyoodon Chronicle.
A Gallant Clergyman.
It Is said that the Rev. Sydney
Smith could be gallant as well as witty
on occasion.
“Oh. Mr. Smith, I cannot bring this
flower to perfection." said a young
lady to him once as she showed him
nbont ber conservatory.
Whereupon he took her by the hand
and said. “Then let me bring perfec­
tion to the fiowee."
