One of the hardest things is to tell

This story is told by a man who dto
ikes nothing so. much as to be asked
tuestlOM':
AMy little- girl is very fond of sea
liells." he said "and having beea
tailed to Atlantic City on business oae
day. I took advantage of the oppor-
tunity to run down to the beach to see
if I could pick Hp a few. I was' stroll-
ing aloag the sand; -gathering a iew
shells and pebbles which I placed la
my handkerchief when along came one
of those old idiots who ass: questions
with their mouths whkk tbelr eyes
could answer. He smiled vpon vat asd
said: 'Fins day. Isn't It? Are yea
gathering shells Y
"'No. I snapped back saying the
Irst thing that popped Into my mind;
Tn looking for a set of false teeth I
lost while in bathing.'
"He expressed his sympathy and
then his face lit up as his eye caught
sight of a pink and white object on
the sand. Well I declare! Here they
are now!' he exclaimed and sure
enough he picked up a set of false
teeth lying right at his feet I was too
surprised to do anything but grab them
and. put them in my pocket The fun-
ny part of it is that I never had a tooth
pulled In my life I wonder whom that
false set belongs to." Philadelphia
Record.
He Believed the Boy.
A Judge was explaining to a young
student friend the Intricacies of evi-
dence. He Illustrated well the case of
conflicting evidence bow when the
statements of two witnesses are op-
posed tbe more probable statement is
to be accepted.
"Usually In conflicting evidence" he
said "one statement is far more proba-
ble than tbe other so that we can de-
cide easily which to believe. It is like
the boy and the house hunter. A house
hunter getting off a train at a sub-
urban station said to a boy:
"'My boy I am looking for Mr.
Smlthson's new block of semidetached
cottages. How far are they from here.'
" 'About a twenty minuses' walk' tho
boy renjled.
"'Twenty minutes!' exclaimed the
house hunter. 'Jfonsense! The adver-
tisement snys five.
'"Well. said the boy you can be-
lieve me or you can believe the adver-
tisement but I ain't tryin' to make no
sale.' "Cincinnati Enquirer.
A Dish of Tea.
In reference to a note about a "dish
of tea" It may be mentioned that
"dish" throughout the eighteenth cen-
tury was a colloquialism for cup. In
fashionable houses at first and for
long tea was drunk from a cup with-
out a handle brought from China. Tbe
vessel was termed a dish. When the
Chinese cup was first copied by Eng-
lish potters tho convenience of a han-
dle was added. Tbe saucer also was
brought from China. It received the
name because of Its resemblance to
the English saucer a platter In which
sauce was served. The familiar gibe
"saucer eyes" was originally inspired
by tbe sauce saucer long before Lord
Arllngtongave tbe first tea party in
England In Arlington House where
Buckingham palace stands at the Res-
toration period. London Chronicle.
Destructive Music
A member of tho board of directors
of the Metropolitan Opera House tells
a story that ho had from one of the
musicians attached to the orchestra
there. It appears that a friend of the
wife of the musician bad during a call
on the latter Inquired as to the bus-
band's taste In musical matters. Among
other things she wanted to know. what
operas the musician liked best to play.
"I don't know much about dot" said
the better half who was at tbe time
busily engaged In darning an old shirt
"but I do know somet'lngs. Voteffer
he likes I like not dos Wagner operas.
Dey sounds veil enough but dose
clothes ach! He neffer yet comes home
from dot Wagner opera dot he haf not
torn a place In his poor old shirts. I
brefer the Italian operas."-
A Dangerous Feat.
For a feat of dexterity and nerve it
would be difficult to surpass that of
the Bosjesman of South Africa who
walks quietly up to a puff adder and
deliberately sets his bare foot on Its
neck. In its struggles to escape and
attempts to bite its assailant the poi-
son gland secretes a large am oust of
the venom. This Is Just what tbe
Bosjesman wants. Killing the snake
he eats the body and usss tbe polsoo
for his arrows.

CONDENSED PHILOSOPr
There Is more or less dead wood
In every family tree.
Very few of us have the nerve to
tell people the things that they really
ought to know. J
Some people persist in seeing a
cloud to every silver lining
There are cases where it is best not
to be too wise.
If we would just stop to think we
would realize that the Interest we
take in our neighbors' affairs Is out
of all proportion to their merits.
A cruel story runs on wheels and
every hand oils . the wheels as they
run.
It takes two to quarrel but some
folks don't seem to have much trouble
finding the other one.
Some people seem to reckon their
rate of progress by the noise they
make and the dust they raise.
If you would flatter a man tell
him that he Is proof against flattery.
A bright smile will chase the shad-
ows from the darkest surroundings..
In vain do they talk of happiness
who never subdued an impulse in
obedience to a principle

timent is a hopeless form of insanity

The Light of a Cheerfal Heart
I tell you that you and I and the
commonest person are; all journeying
the same way hemmed in by the
same narrow path leading to the eter-
nal years.
We pride ourselves over our par-
ticular superiority; but really there
is little difference between us and
in the journey over the thousand hills
and valleys called life he is the wisest
who Is patient when the way Is hard
has faith when he does not under-
stand and carries into the dark places
