On (lie lloor of the house the door keeper lias his desk, and it is here thai the bells are struck that give nolic( of the needs of congress. One beli calls for tellers when the house is it; committee of the whole; two bells in dii ate a call for yeas and nays; three declare a recess; with four bells the red light over the eloor goes out; five bells mean a "call of the liotise." jinelei Which the sergeant at anus is supposed to summarily arrest any member <>c sight and bring hint in, whether ot foot or horseback. Any member whe is not present at a call of the house is subjected to a severe reprimand. Look ing down the corridor, the going out ol the reel light gives the curious sug gestion of the tall end of a passengei train dashing through a tunnel. While the red light: burns bright and clear it means that congress is under way, but when the light winks and goes "til then the visitors understand that the wheels of legislation have ceased to re volve.—National Magazine. Countermanded. A very devout clergyman had jusi married a couple and, as was his cus tom, offered a fervent prayer, invoking the divine blessing upon tliem. As they seemed to lie worthy folk ami not overburdened with this world's gooels, he prayed, among other things, foi their material prosperity and besought the Lord to greatly increase the man's business, laying much stress on this point. In filling out the blanks it became necessary to ask the man his business and, to the minister's horror, he said, "I keep a saloon." lii telling the story to his wife after ward the clergyman said that as he wrote down the occupation he whis pereel: "Lorel, you needn't answer that prayer."—Philadelphia Leelger. Lord Kelvin and the Cable. It Is perhaps not generally known that the success of the Atlantic cable was due to the calculations and ex periments of the late Lord Kelvin, al that time plain William Thomson. lie discovered that the current through a long cable would arrive gradually al the receiving end and devised the ap paratus which rendered it possible tc utilize such a current for making the Morse signals. It was through disre gard of his theoretical predictions that the first Atlantic cable, in 1858, was ruined by too powerful currents. With out his mirror galvanometer to trans- 1 late into visible signals the delicate impulses received through the cable the enterprise would have been a com plete failure. How to Fill Up Holes In Wood. It sometimes becomes necessary to fill up cracks or dents in line wood work, furniture, floors, etc. The fol lowing is the best way of doing it; White tissue paper is steeped and per fectly softened In water and by thor ough kneading with glue transformed into a paste and by means of ochers (earth colors) colored as nearly as pos sible to the shade of the wood. To the paste calcineel magnesia is then added anel it Is forced into the cracks or very firmly to the weiod and after dry ing retains its snmotli surface. An Apology.

"We had gone on a fishing trip in a row boat, but it seeineel that either all the fish were at another place or were not hun gry. We elecieleil if those fish were not hungry we were. We bad taken our luncheon, as wise fishermen will, and in order to keep tin; bread as fresh as possible had left it in loaf form. My friend asked me to pass it to him, and in doing so the loaf of bread went overboard. We made out the best we could without the bread and later row ed to another place to fish. On our way back we passed the place where we leist our bread. Then we saw the sight of our lives. On each side of the loaf of bread stood a big fish, and for as far as we could see there was a great line of small fish. We wondered what it was, and then the thought dawned on us—those fish had formed a "breael line" anel the two large fish were dealing out the bread. After that we didn't have the heart to try to catch any of those poor, hungry fish." A Bride With Some Good Points. Some years ago in an agricultural district in England there lived a farm er who wanted to sell one of his cows. There was not at that time a weekly paper in which he coulel advertise, so he resolved to follow a local custom and ask the vicar of the parish when giving out his notices at church to ad vertise t lie cow. "Yes, farmer," said the vicar, "I should be willing to oblige you, but you don't attend my church." Presently, however, they struck a bargain that the vicar should adver tise the cow, and the man in return promised togo to church. Now, un fortunately the man was deaf, and on the Sunday following when the vicar gave out the banns of marriage be tween Joseph So-and-so, bachelor, anel Sarah So-and-so, spinster, the farmer took it.for granted that the vicar was giving out particulars of his cow and shouted out: "You might as well say while you are about it that she is a most gentle creature and entirely free from vice." —Stray Stories. Where Red Hair Is Disliked. In Cornwall, particularly the Land's ! End district, it is not advisable to dub ' a person "a re-el haired Dane," thougli j in most parts of England, especially inland, the expression would as likely ! as not provoke no comment at all or be j regarded as simply frivolous. At a police e-ourt case hearel in ISG7 at Penzance town hall it came out in evidence that the defendant had called the complainant "a reel haired Dane," and this led to an assault. The strong repugnance of Cornishmen to be dubbed by this strange appellation is as strong as ever. The Celtic nations hated the Danes and were always fighting them. And not only in Cornwall, but also ail along our coasts, where the Danes or Norse men made their ravages, this deep roeded prejueliee against people with red hair, "red headed," more or less remains ingrained in the national char acter.—J. Harris Stone in"The Eng lish Illustrated." Meat Versus Song. The great tenor's lunch consisted of a cliee'se omelet, asparagus, fruit and an ice. "No meat?" said the reporter. "As little meat as possible," the tenor replied. "Meat kills song. The night ingale, the thrush anel lark are grain eaters, and their song is sweet. The carnivorous birds, the crow, etc., only croak. And in countries that go in for excessive meat eating—England, for in stance—there are few good voices, while in the more vegetarian countries, such as Italy, fine singers abound. Song birds are vegetarian," he con clueled. "Carnivorous birds croak." — New York I'ress. Where Water Means Life.
