Hand Dictionary Good Post Office for Cupid!

Rather abruptly and without forethought, the head of the Hilisville high school made a startling discovery: namely, that a pleasant glow engulfed his heart at the mere mention of a certain instructress in his school But what was he to do? :

The school board turned “thumb’sdown” on such romances. Furthermore, love tangles in the school might lower the high standard of morale he was attempting to maintain among his charges. Yet, despite barriers, the glow persisted until at last in desperation he dashed off these lines: “l must see you alone! Meet me in K— (a city near Hillsville) Friday night.” He slipped the note in a small hand dictionary on the lady’s desk and nervously waited developments. Later he returned and found an answer In the affirmative. That winter he made regular calls on “friends” in K—. And, although Hillsville prided itself upon its power of detection, it suspecte¢ nothing simply because one of its lady teachers spent many of her evenings in the city. : During March the two were marrled, but they decided it would be wiser not to disclose the news until commencement. How surprised Hillsville was! When had they done it? ' The professor declared he had not once spoken a word to his wife of 'their romance when in Hillsville. True, ‘they had held romantic communication ‘there, often shockingly ardent on the professor’s part, according to his wife, 'but not one spoken word. The little ‘hand dictionary had remained their Anfallible. Dan Cupid.—Capper’s Week--Iy.

Successful Wife Knows When to “Waste” Time

“Most wives,” said Billings, ‘“have to play comforter to their husbands (for more reasons than you could shake ‘& stick at. But I doubt if there is aniother wife in New York who has to ‘pet and console for the reason that jpops up in front of my friend, Mrs. | Arnold about twice a year.” ’ “What reason is that?” Bolt asked. . “Football !” said Billings. : “Did you say . ‘football?”” Bolt

puzzled. “l did,” said Billings. *“My friend Arnold is the town's most rabid fan. And every time his team loses, he is made cheerful only when his wife lets him put his head on her lap and tell her (in nothing less than half an hour) about all the rotten breaks that the team had.” : .~ “Do you really mean,” Boit demanded, “that she lets the big stiff waste her time like that?” S

" “If you weren't a dumb bachelor,” Billings said sagely, “you’d know that it's such wastes of time that make successful wives.”—New York Sun.

Colonial Currency

- During the Colonial period the colonfsts used the same currency as the mother country, designated in pounds, shillings and pence. While the money of account was for each colony a Colonial pound, the actual money in circulatlon was a varied collection of coins of English, French, Portuguese and Spanish origin. The Spanish dolfar was the most widely known and eirculated, and it thus became the term by which the currencies of the Colonies were most readily compared. The Spanish dollar was common to all the Colonies, and it was the term in which later the common obligations were expressed by the Continental congress, and thus became the basis ‘of our national coinage.

Cheating

Worth, the famous designer of women's styles, once remarked at a Paris eonvention :

- *“I have nothing but admiration for that great English playwright, Shakespeare. What a blend of drama and philosophy ! And yet he made one great big mistake when he said that love was- blind. -~ %I have found out by experience that dove Is blind to everything but fat. Love sees fat, all right.” -

Wedding Rings for Curtain

That the curtain before the tabernacle In the chapel of the Blessed Sacrament of Westminster cathedral ia London is hung on a golden rod with wedding rings has just become generally known. Forty-nine women of wvarfous nationalities made an offering of their wedding rings for the purpose. Bome were widows. but many were wives who, for the embellishment of the cathedral, desired to give that which they most prized.

Columbus’ View of America

He again visited the mainland in 1502, near the mouth of the Veragua river, in Central America. These were the only oeusiou\ upon which the great navigator actually saw the mainland of elther of the great western continents. —Pathfinder Magazine,

As You Will

| The woman in business will tell you that she has to work harder than a 'lll'il to get as far. Maybe she does and maybe she doesn't. He yells louder over the telephone but he ‘doesn’t screw up his face so much,— ‘Woman’s Home Companion. -
