A Creature From the Fire. Aristotle believed that some creatures were capable of supporting life even though confined to the devouring element. He says: ‘‘ln Cyprus, when ,the manufacturers of cbalcitis (lime) -burn it many days in the fire, a winged ■creature something larger than a great fly is seen emerging from the stone And leaping and walking about in the fire. These creatures perish immediately upon being removed from the furnace.”

Damaging Admission. “The baby weighs twelve pounds, *4loes he?” said the proud young moth*Lkre you sure the scales are corTectr * “Correct!” exclaimed the equally proud young father incautiously. Of course they are. They’re the scales I always use for weighing the fish I catch.”— Chicago Tribune.

The Spinning Wheel In Iwlaafc' The spinning wheel and the flax wheel are still found in the Irish cottages, where many a girl has her wedding dowry of linen and homespun made at home. Although it is more the task of the older women, there are still girls who do their spinning stint and lay by a certain amount for their wedding outfit A pleasant slghbit la to see the elderly women outside their cottage doors spinning the flax or the wool. As long as the weather Is warm the sturdy Irishwoman, old or young, scorns a roof except to sleep under. The free air and sunshine are her choice, and the sweet sky is the fairest roof.

Politics and Humor. In the world of politics the man who would obtain political preferment must be serious. No man who cultivates humor to the exclusion of bis other gifts can hope to attain to the highest places in the political arena. The American citizen reserves the inalienable right to vote for whom he wills, and the serious man who suppresses his sense of humor rather than the man who cultivates it is honored with his preference. —Senator Chauncey M. Depew.

Superfluous Details. Caller (looking at picture)—Does your mamma paint? Little Son —Yes, but she’s through with that an’ is puttin’ on the powder now. She’ll be down In a minute.

Accepted. “Jackson tells me the last thing he wrote was accepted. Do yon know what it was?” “Yes; his resignation.”—London Million.

Rats and conquerors must expect no mercy In misfortune. —Cotton.
