HER LESSON IN PROPORTION Gmail Heart*, Too, She Found, Are to De Found in Very Large Mansions. There was a girl who was quite sure | that when It came her turn to marry she could not live in a house any smaller than her father's. "Love tn a cottage" was not her Idea. Cupid, she 1 i thought, needed plenty of room to flap . I his wings and to practice his archery; { he could not pine in a bird cage. So ■ she must have an immense library : ! with a fireplace that would take a six- ' foot log; there must be a drawing-; room with parquetry flooring and thick | rugs sliding about on it; the dining-1 j room must be able to hold a large! i table with an Imposing bowl of flowi era. She visualized herself ruling a salon, hostess to a brilliant coterie of | people who would help her social am- i bition and her husband’s business. A school friend of hers came to see I her a ( year and a half after she had married nnd found bar in a little frame i house on a side street, ridiculously happy with her husband and her baby I The back yard was lust about big ! enough to hold a whirling clothes , frame and a narrow flower bed against' the fence; the piazza was as snug as a sailor’s hammock: the largest room was about the size of the vestibule of the bride's girlhood home. "I know what you’re thinking, '■ laughed the proud little housekeeper to her guest. "You’re wondering how 1 could make up my mind to live in this tiny piano box. Rut I’ve made a dis- ' covery. I've found that it isn’t the 1 size of the house that matters: it's the size of the heart, and the biggest hearts can live in the littlest houses.” i —Philadelphia Public Ledger. ' CRUDE, CUT DOES THE WORK Primitive System of “Wireless Teleg raphy” in Use Among Tribes of Amazon Region. In the Juamara region of the Amazon the natives use a crude system oi wireless telegraphy, which, it is claimed, has been in operation foi thousands of years The transmitter found by an explorer was a hollowed i trunk of a tree suspended from a horizontal pole stretched between two , stumps. Inside the transmitter had been arranged much like a violin, and it was explained that when the Instrument was struck smartly with 8 small rubber hammer a vibration was created that carried for miles over the hills. The receiver is very similar to the transmitter, except that it is placed on a hardwood platform, the base ol the hollowed tree trunk being ground ed on the platform When the mes sage is struck in the neighboring vil lage, sometimes thirty miles away this receiver catches the vibrations causing a jerky, singing sound. The sound system, it is said, can be read by the members of the tribe, and In this way news of victories and other happenings are told throughout the countryside. Impromptu Solo. Pierre Garat, the singer and exquisite of Napoleonic France, was not merely a glass of fashion and a wonderful, self-instructed singer, but an artist devoted to his art. But is the following, asks Mr. Bernard Miall in his biography, an example of sincerity in art, or of love of attracting attention? Coupigny had supplied him with a "romance” to be set to music. Whenever the two met, Garat replied, "1 have not hit upon an idea as yet." One day Coupigny was walking down the Rue Neuve-des-Petits-Chainps. Hearing a sound of some one running behind him, he turned; it was Garat, who seized him by the arm, dragged him up the stairs of a neighboring house, and, halting on the first landing, exclaimed, "I’ve got it!” At once he began to sing the romance through at the top of his voice. The inhabitants of the house began to open their doors; heads were projected over the banisters; finally they began to approach; but Garat, having finished, tore down the stairs like a monkey, dragging the bewildered poet with him. —Ynuth's Companion. Only Worse. A Philadelphia school teacher ha* lately been instructing her pupils in Grecian mythology. It is the plan to have the children read the tales aloud, and the next day recount them in their own language. One lad, to whom was given the assignment to render in his own language the story of the Gorgons, did so in these terms: "The Gorgons were three sisters that lived in the Islands of Hcsperides, somewhere in the Indian ocean. They had long snakes for hair, tusks for teeth and claws for nails, and they looked like women, only more horrible.” — Pittsburgh Chronicle-Tele-graph. Unfamiliar to English. Many of our names tor common fauna and flora are unknown to an Englishman, save as strange Americanisms, e. g., raccoon, opossum, skunk, terrapin, chipmunk and moose; persimmon, chinquapin, alfalfa and yam. He seldom sees popcorn or an oyster stew; he knows nothing of oyster suppers, clam bakes and burgoo picnics. He doesn’t buy either red lemonade or peanuts when he goes to the cirms; the former he calls lemon-squash ind the latter he doesn’t know at. all The common American use of peanut is an adjective of disparagement, e. g., peanut politics, is incomprehensible to him
