Memorable Claeaifieetiene.
Lady Mary Wortley Montagu, *om-
■iacieut, but sane, announced that
though she bad lived a long time awl
seen a great deal she had met only
two aorta of people, and they were
very much alike—namely, men and
women. Mrs. Oliphaut had her ewu
way of dividing persona into "those I
can talk to and those I can't,” while
Laurence Hutton used to say that
there were only two sorts of persons
hi the world, those who remember to
say “Thank you" and those who do
not. “Is he a yea-saycr or a no-
anyer?” naked NicUsche, with which
simple brevity contrast Galsworthy.
“There are two kinds of men in tbit
world—one who sA’ill not rest content
till he has become master df all the
toys that make a fat existence, never
looking to see of what sort they aro
made, and the other for whom life is
tobacco and a crust of bread and lib-
erty to tako nil to pieces, so that his
spirit may feel good within him.”—Lucy
Elliott Keeler in Atlantic Monthly.
Old English Furniture.
That fine old furniture is yet found
in Great Britain in many unexpected
places Is said to be largely due to the
stirring up of the country that was
given by the great exhibition at Lon-
don of 1851. This was soon after the
development of the railway system in
Euglaml, and there flocked to London
a large number of squires and their
wives. A new world had opened to the
country dames. The new things bad a
wonderful fascination for them. On
rehmrfng home they got rid of much of
(heir old furniture and bought new.
Much of the old furniture found its
way to secondhand shops and was
■old to poor folk who could not afford
to buy new. This accounts for tho
finding today of much good old furni-
ture in small bouses in provincial towns
and among country people.—Indianapo-
lis News.
Napoleon Obeyed tho Mob.
In '“The Corsican—A Diary of Napo-
leon's Life In His Own Words,” Bona-
parte tells how ns an obscure soldier
lie witnessed some of the opening
scenes of the revolution: “I lodged at
Rue du Mail, Place dcs Victories. At
the sound of the tocsin and the news
that the Tuileries were attacked I
started for the Carousel. Before I had
got there in tho Rue des Petits Champs
I was passed by a mob of horrible look-
ing fellows parading a head stuck on a
pike. Thinking I looked too much of a
gentleman, they wanted mo to shout
•Vive la nation!’ which I did promptly,
as may easily ho imagined.'’
Just Used Him.
They met again-at Atlantic City. The
young man asked the girl:
“Now that yon have become engaged
to Georgu why have you flirted With
mo so long and let me take you motor-
ing, golfing and theater going? Why
did you encourage me so long when
you intended to accept George?”
The girl blushed a little and sighed.
“I wanted,” she said softly, "la-test my |U,„ol| un
love for George."—Pittsburgh Chroni-
cle-Telegraph.
