ACOOL AND OLEVEE GIRL.

 

Who-1n a Ladylike' Way Managed to

-; _ Mortify Two Rude Men.

‘3"; A girl I know told me a little story

the other day, says a writer. She is
‘ quite an ordinary girl, well-behaved

enough ,if‘people let her alone, and

making no claim to equality with any- ’

one except under extreme aggravation.
She is a busy person and therefore,
when going home to dinner, only
reached the station in time for the ex-
act train,which would insure punctual-
ity. It was late and it was crowded.
To waste time finding a seat would be
to be left behind. She got into the
carriage which stopped opposite her
and, finding it full,.stood quietly by
the door. by: ‘

a Two men on opposite sides of the
carriage looked at her in wrath and
the one said (you can imagine the air
-of self-praise): “I never give up my
seat to a lady.”

“Neither do I,” said the other. "‘It’s
unreasonable that they should ex-
pect it.”

They started a sort of duct on the
subject, enlarging by turns and in uni-
son on their firmness in keeping their
Seats, the selfishness of women in
getting into full carriages—they had
paid for their seats, why should they
give them up—and much more to the
same effect, all directed with black
looks at my friend by the door.

She heard, unconcerned. The opin-l

ions of the speakers did not interest
her at all; there was no reason why
she should trouble to answer them.
All she wanted was to be home in time
for dinner, When some one in the
carriage alighted at a station she took
the seat vacated and would , have
thought no more of the matter had not
the two men still continued to talk at
her with wearisome iteration. After
a few more stations were passed
another passenger got out, and a wom-
an, getting in, asked my friend a, quite
unnecessary ‘question. The two men
looked up; they could not help being
interested in anything the woman they
had been talking about so long might
say. ~
.* She smiled sadly and shook her head.
The question was repeated. Of course,
three Or four people in the carriage
answered it at once, but my friend
shook her head more sadly still and
pointed to her ears.

“Ah, 'dearl Poor thing!” said the
questioner.

And the blank, absurd faces of those
two men were a sight to see. My
friend said their humiliation would

have made her repent her little fraud '

had it not been for the hearty and
' wholesome delight it afforded the rest
of the passengers. The shout of laugh-
ter that rose at the expense of those
two men was almost enough to deafen
anyone in sober earnest. ———New Budget.

 

A Window in His Head.
Although “every dog has his day,”
few of the species attain to the dis-
tinction and celebrity Of one which
formerly belonged tr: the late Mr.
Arthur Durham.- The fame of this
animal was spread far and wide about
five and twenty or thirty years ago,
and “Durham’s dog” was as well
known in scientific circles as the pres-
ident of the Royal society. For the
better pursuit of his investigations
into the state of the brain in sleeping
and waking, Mr. Durham had removed
a large part of the animal’s skull, and
had glazed the orifice with a stout
watch-glass. The operation had been
performed with the assistance of sums-
thetics, and the dog was quite unaware,
that anything of the kind had occurred
to him, or that he had a. transparent
crown to his cranium. But through
this watch-glass the state of the circu-
lation in his brain in sleeping or wak-
ing could be observed with the greatest
accuracy and ease, and much useful
information was thus supplied by him;
I believe that he lived happily for
many years afterwards, and that he
sufiered no inconvenience from having
a glass top. —-LondOn World. '

. 'Qucstions of IHealth.
'2. The popular notion that an athlete,
because ‘of his athleticism, is a healthy
man is a delusive one. Muscular de-
velopment is not an affair of the con-
stitution; it is an accident. Strong
limbs and a weak heart are not infre-
quently associates. Many a “strong
man” dies prematurely of consump-
tion. If health may be defined as a
capacity for holding on to life, then in
many cases the weaklings are the
- healthiest. If such a definilion is ac-
' curate, 'women are healthier than
men; their average length of days is
greater than ours. But it is doubtful
if centenarians, merely because they
are centenarians, are the healthiest.
I knew a case of a woman, whoreccnt-

 

 

ly died at uthe age of one hundred and ‘

five, who was slightly paralyzed, even
as a child, and'whc was practically.
completely so for more than seventy
years. Could' such a, one have ever
,, I been correctly described as healthy?

 

 

I, It is as hard to say what life is as'to

'1 ,H E EV E N1N (xGA Z E "r. r E '

say what .health‘is, and the way in
which unhealthy folks are tenacious of
life is not the least of the marvels.—
All the Year Round.

 

When the-Raven Was Milk White.

According to Mohammedan belief,
the ravens which Noah took with him
'on the ark were both pure' white.
When the ark had been riding the bil-
lows of the flood for thirty-three days
one Of the three girafies died (how
there happened to be three aboard will
be explained at some future time), and
the carcass was thrown: overboard.
NO sooner had it struck the water than
the ravens pounced upon it. For this
Noah cursed them, and since that day
they have been coal black—St. Louis
Republic.

 

 

 

The Perverslty of Fate. .

“Doctor.” said the sick man, rolling
up his eyes till only the whites showed,
“why is it that in the days when I ate
no melons except stolen ones they
never bothered me in the least, and
now that I am a man and buy my mel—
ons, as an honest man should, they tie
me up in seven kinds of knots?”—In~
dianapolis Journal.

 

 

 

V

TO TAX NOBLEMEN.
0'

Ingenious Idea Whereby France Hopes to
Pay Her National Debt.

French marquises, counts and barons
are growing as common as aSparagus in
the month of May. Every well-dressed

‘man inParis thinks himself dishonored
if his buttonhole is not ornamented
with a decoration of some kind, or if
on his visiting card a coronet is not en-
graved. Never have there been more
aristocrats in France than under the
third republic.

One Of the remarkable things about
this is that the great majority have no
right to prefix a title to their names,
but as the offense is a harmless one no
serious objections have been raised so
far by the authorities. On the con-
trary,” it seems as if the government
were rather inclined to countenance
titles. Such is the opinion of a learned
deputy, M. Girault, who, when parlia-
ment reassembles, intends to introduce
a bill by which all noblemen shall be
taxed.

The tariff will be levied according to
the rank of nobility selected bya party
in quest of aristocratic glory. A prince
will be compelled to pay the maximum
tariff, aduke will come next on the
schedule, and all the titles will be sub-
mitted to an inflexible law, which M.
Girault has carefully prepared, and
which is destined to ameliorate the
financial condition of the nation and
facilitate in years to come the equilib-
rium of the budget.

However revolutionary M. Girault’s
plan may appear, no one will deny that
it is a most democratic resolution, for
a noble title being anything but an
article of absolute necessity, only
those with money to spare will have
anything to pay. It is an original
method of making the rich bear a
larger share Of the burdens of taxa-

tion. Without doing this by taxing
their incomes direct it taxes their titles
as an article of luxury and as some-
thing which gives the possessors a cer-
tain homage in the eyes of the people,
for which they ought to be willing to
make compensation.

““M. Girault’s law, notWithstanding
its originality,” says a French writer,
“has been turned to ridicule in France
before it has been read for the first
time in the chamber of deputies. There
are some who ask if it would not be
better to organize an immense lottery,
the grand prize of which would be a
title of prince and the lesser ones titles
of lower order. The journey to Rome
would be avoided, and all titles pos-
sessed by Frenchmen would be strictly
national.”

St. Louis Making Gallant Efforts to Care.

For Her People.
ST. LOUIs, June 4.—Thc lower house of

' the municipal assemblyhas voted $100,000

for the relief of the tornado sufferers.
Mayor Walbridge has turned over $15,000
of outside contributions to the relief com-
mittee. The mayor, however, still believes
that St. Louis should be equal to the task
of caring for the afillcted. Theindlvlduals
of thevpolice force have contributed one
day’s pay to the general fund. The St.
Louis Fair association turned into the
fund the net profits of Monday's racing,
about 81,500.

James Campbell, Da'n Catlin, W. -J.

Lemp, Charles Parsons and other capital‘
ists today took initial steps to raise $250,-
000 to lend to tornado sufferers at low
rates of interest to rebuild their homes.
No interest will be charged for 12 months.
At the Noon Day club $35,000 was raised
for this purpose. Assessors have begun a
house to house canvass in the territory
blasted by the tornado, and the amount of
damages will be deducted from the assess-
ments on which taxes of 1897 will be com-
puted. .
. The body of William Hartigan,a wealthy
iron miner of Birmingham, Ala, is sup-
posed to be beneath the debris of a wreck-
ed building. He came to St. Louis two
days before the tornado to purchase ma-
chinery. On Wednesday he went to the
fair grounds. Since then nothing has
been seen of him.

The county supervisors in East St.
Louis, in response to an appeal from the
city council, today voted an appropriation
of $25,000 to relieve the immediate suffer—
ing. The destitutlcn there is increasing.
The women’s relief committee report 570
families homeless and destitute. A com-
mittee of islanders made an appeal to
Mayor Bader for tents. He immediately
telegraphed the governor for 100. Those
able to move made a rush for the suburb
of Denvsrslde, where 70 tents are stand-
ing. The militia were compelled to drive
back many of the newcomers to prevent a
panic. The relief committee is expanding
about $1,000 a day for food, clothing and
cots, and $500 a day more is needed.
