What Affected the Water Supply. It was market day. A young woman who works in a downtown ode* building had hurried to the busy mart where a coliseum was once planned and had purchased Sunday supplies. A big water tank stood in one corner of the office where she is employed. She had seen a man put ice in it for drinking water. That would lie just the place for her provender. “What the”— The demure young woman's employer had sought to lave his thirst, but he set the cup down quickly. He shook with anger at the iceman. The demure one quaked with fear. Angry eyes' met timid eyes. Then came the confession. “I'm awful sorry, Mr. ,” she quavered, “but I thought there was some kind of a thing-a-mi-jig in there that would keep it from”— She burst into tears. He lifted the lid, and there met his gaze a bunch of celery, young onions, radishes, a pound of butter, lard, veal cutlets and some lettuce. He did not stop to see the rest, as he lighted a big, strong, black cigar.—lndiauaiiolls News. Hard to Please. As Miss Lamson arruyed herself for the meeting of the Harvest Gleaners she expressed her mind freely and fully to her Aunt Eunice. “If they try to make me secretary again I shall up and tell them just what I think of them,” she said, with great decision. “Sho!” remarked Aunt Eunice, who had learned not to waste words. “Yes, I shall,” insisted Miss Dunson. “Here I’ve worked for them for ten solid years, and they’ve never even suggested getting anybody else to take the burden from my shoulders. Its—it’s disgraceful!” On Miss Lamson's return Aunt Eunice cast one glance at her niece and then put in her word of sympathy. “Poor child, they’ve imposed on you again!” she said in her soothing voice. “Imposed on me!” cried Miss Lamson, a dull flush rising to her cheek bones. “I should think they had! I declined the nomination, and they elected that little Robins woman right over my head. But there’s no such thing as gratitude nowadays."—Youth’s Companion. Not Quite the Same. A country clergyman vouches for the truth of this story. Having arrived at that point in the baptismal service where the infant's name Is conferred, he said, “Name this child." “Original Story,” said the sponsor nurse. “What do you say?” he asked in surprise. “Original Story,” she repeated tn clear, deliberate tones. “It’s a very odd name, isn’t it? Are you sure you want him called by the name of Original Story?” “Original Story—that’s right.” “Is it a family name?” the minister persisted. “Named after bls uncle, sir,” explained the nurse. And so as Original Story the little fellow was christened. Some weeks after this event the minister made the acquaintance of the said uncle—a farm laborer in another village—whose name was Reginald Story.—London Tatler. French Supers,.uons. The French superstitions regarding deaths and funerals are all but numberless. “If you meet a funeral while driving, you will have an accident before your drive is over unless you turn I back,” they say. Many a gambler en I route for Monte Carlo will not gamble that day if he meets a funeral. Others will bet only at rouge et noir and persistently on tile black. The peasants have at least a hundred superstitions about bees. They believe (and did not Virgil, too, or did he but chronicle it of his contemporaries?) that bees are bred of dead men’s bones and flesh. This seems to be one of the oldest of the current French superstitious, for on a very old tomb at Arles (found In the world famous Alyscamp) is this inscription: “This Has Become the Home of Unhallowed Bees.” — London An swers.

A Wasted Motion. ! “Ladles,” called the president of the i afternoon whist club—“ladies, it has been moved and seconded that there shall be no conversation at the card ' tables. What chai) we do with the mo- ! tion?” ] “I suggest that we discuss It while we play,” piped a shrill voice from Table A, and the suggestion was adopted.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Avarice. Avarice is an incurable malady, an , ever burning Are, a tyranny which extends far and wide, for he who In this life is the slave of money is loaded with heavy chains and destined to carry far heavier chains in the life to come.—St. John Chrysostom. The Grocer’s Jest. “Most of my customers," remarked the grocer who had been out trying to collect some bills, “remind me of a pair of trousers sent to the tailor.” “How so?” inquired the cashier. “Because they are pressed for money.”—New York Press. Sleep and Longevity. Sleep is as necessary as air or food. Those who shirk the sleep of life are only hastening unconsciously to the sleep of death.—Brussels Independance Beige. The Tramp’s View. “The times are getting worse. They offered me work at five different places today.”—Fiiegende Blatter. Silk and velvet put out the kitchen fire.—German Proverb. , i - __J
