Editor For a Day. When Lord Northcllffe, the English publisher and peer, was plain Mr. Harmsworth, Joseph Pulitzer permitted him to be editor of the New York World for one day lu order to exemplify the Harmsworth contention that the New York papers are too big. The tabloid World, famous In newspaper circles, was the result Harmsworth called the staff Into consultation. Henry N. Cary, then news editor, suggested as a Joke that all members of the staff should appear that night in full eveniug regalia. Everybody consented with one exception—one man refused. Harmsworth came down in a sack suit He was astonished at the display of eveniug suits and sniffed the mothball smell from afar. He asked mildly whether the World editors and reporters appeared thus clad as a usual thing, and was solemnly assured they did. The only person dressed like Harmsworth was the editor who would not fall in with the joke. Also, the only man Harmsworth took back to England with him was the man who was clad like himself.—Saturday Evening Post Had to Go and Climb a Tro*. The Countess of Desmond died in 1604 at the age of 140. In his “History of tho World” Sir Walter Raleigh states. “I myself knew the old Countess of Desmond, who was married in Edward IV.’s time and held her Joint ure from all the earls of Desmond since I then; and that this is true all the no blemen and gentlemen in Munster can witness.” She retained all her facul- 1 ties to the last, walked ten miles in a day only a week before her death, and., according to the inscription on the back , of her portrait at Muckross abbey. ‘ln ye course of her long Pilgrimage re newts! her teeth twice.” The countess looked like living another fifty years. I when, as Lord Leicester told Sir Wil , Ham Temple, "she must needs climb a, nut tree to gather nuts; so. falling down, she hurt her thigh, which brought a fever, and that brought death." Shamrock Diet For Athletes. Has any modern athlete thought of trying the shamrock as training diet? Most of the writers of former times who credited the Irish with eating their national plant spoke of this as evidence of the poverty of the people, though some said it was eaten to make the breath sweet. But Mundy, an Oxford vegetarian, at the end of the seventeenth century observed, with satis faction, that "the Irish that nourish themselves with their shamrock (which is the purple clover) are swift of foot ■nd of nimble strength." And Linnaeus wrote, 'The swift and agile Irishmen nourish themselves with their ahnmroek, which is the purple trefoil, for they make from the flowers of this plant, breathing a honeyed odw. a bread which IS mop; pleasapt than that made from other materials.—London Chronicle. A Memory of Borno. Writing of a visit to Dumfries, “T. P.” in his London weekly tells of see Ing the spot where Burns caught his fatal chill: "I had pictured a cross or a tablet or something of the kind. What I saw were two or three brick steps decayed, gaping with the mortar half worn away; just three brick stepa; that and nothing more. It did not make the spot leas tragic, less Impressive, be cause it stood thus in all its common nakedness It was Indeed far more impressive In its suggestion, that of utter simplicity and merest common placenesa, which so often are the narrow and squalid theater on which the resounding and immortal tragedies of life are played.” A Poignant Anoodets. •The great fault of American servants is familiarity. To be familiar is to be inefficient A familiar cook to as inefficient as a pessimistic doctor." The speaker, a prominent society wo man. to perhaps the most brilliant conversationalist tn New York, a fact which renders more poignant thto an ecdote “I bad a cooil." she continued, “whom I tried to break of her overfa miilarity. What was ths result? This cook, discussing m* in the servants hall, said; "•I don’t aay she’s a bad mistress, but she's a woman of only one Men Whv.
