An Art Aneccdote.
Edward Rosewater, founder and edi-
tor of the Omaha Bee, had a sincere
love of art. He hated pictures that in-
dicated seamped work, so called im-
pressionistic pictures that were merely
rough and hurried sketches and so
called portraits that bore no likeness to
their originals. A young painter show-
ed Mr. Rosewater one day a portrait of
a mutual friend.
“That a portrait of Smith!” the edi-
tor exclaimed. “I'd never have known
it”
“Oh,” the artist exclaimed, “I didn't
try for a likeness, you know. I tried
for an effect—an effect in grays.”
“I know a man in New York,” sald
Mr. Rosewater, “who had his portrait
painted last year. It cost him $4,000,
and he was very proud of it. When it
came home he showed it to his cook.
“Well, Mary,’ he said, ‘how do you
like this portrait?
“Sure, sir,’ said the cook, ‘it's lovely.
It's beautiful. It's divine.
‘ “+«And of course,’ said my friend, ‘youn
know who itis?
“Oh, of course I do, sir, said the
cook. ‘Of course, of course’ As she
spoke she kept drawing nearer to the
pleture, studying it more and more
closely. ‘Of course, sir, she sald. ‘It's
you or the mistress.’ ”—Buffalo En-
quirer,
The Sultan's Rebuke.
An ambassador of a well known Eu-
ropean monarch was riding in the
streets of Constantinople when one of
the sultan’s carriages rolled by. See-
ing It was guarded, his curiosity got
the better of him, and when the car-
riage reached him he was daring
enough to peep in at the passenger.
He was surprised and pained to re-
ceive a blow in the face from an at-
tendant in charge. Mad with rage, he
demanded audience of the sultan. The
sultan listened attentively and for a
moment appeared lost in thought. At
last he spoke: “My dear —, I have
gone carefully into the case and see
exactly how it stands. You are, of
course, a gentleman. Therefore you
would never have committed such a
breach of good manners as you al-
lege to have taken place. Therefore no
attendant could possibly have struck
youn. The whole affair seems to be a
product of your fancy. Let us dis-
miss it.”
His Constancy.
A story is told of General Sir Alfred
Horsford, who believed in a celibate
army. A soldier once sought his per-
mission to marry, saying he had two
good conduct badges and $25 in the
savings bank. “Well, go away,” said
Sir Alfred, “and if you come back this
day year in the same mind you shall
marry. I'll keep the vacancy.” On
the anniversary the soldier repeated
+ his request. “But do you really, after
a year, want to marry?’ * ‘Yes, sir,
very much.” “Sergeant major, take
his name down. Yes, you may marry.
I never believed there was so much
constancy in man or woman. Right
face. Quick march!” As the man left
the room, turning his head, he said:
“Thank you, sir. It isn't the same

Chinese Gambler's Penance.
A Chinese cook named Chin Kan had |
been engaged by a wealthy Chinese in
Ho In street in Canton. All the money
he earned had been lost in gambling.
On one occasion his master paid him
some money for the provisions he sup-
plied. The cook lost all the money at
debts |
one stake. [Finding that his
were accumulating day by day, on the
twenty-fourth day he went into the
kitchen and chopped off the forefinger
of his left hand as a self punishment
and warning in order to relinquish this
evil habit of gambling in the future.
He became unconscious through the
pain, but was brought round again in
a few minutes. —Singapore Times.
“Naming” an Member.
It is an ancient belief that a man’s
name has some mysterious sympathy
with his nature, whence arise such
stories as that of Rumpelstiltskin,
whose power over a human being van-
ishes the moment that his name Is pro-
cunced aloud. It has been suggested
th some show of reason that the
modern practice of “naming” a refrac-
tory member of the British house of
commons is merely a survival of this
belief, which the Norsemen brought
into England.

Marriages In Bible Times.
i From the Bible accounts of the mar-
riages of Jacob with Leah and Rebecca
and from other narratives of marriages
in Jewish history it seems that mar-
riage was not held to be a sacrament
or religious rite in the times of the
patriarchs. In those days the head of
the family, the father, was priest and
ruler of the family and the only priest
or ruler whose authority it recognized.
As far as we learn from the Bible nar-
rative in the case of Jacob's marriages,
the simple giving of his daughters by
Isaac constituted the marriage, there
being no religious or other ceremony
whatever. Of course, however, mar-
riages made In this way were just as
sacred and just as binding as those
performed in the most ceremonious
manner. In these days in Protestant
countries the marriage laws do not
look upon marriage as a sacrament,
but only as a civil contract, though
most people prefer to give it a certain
religious sanction by having it per-
formed by a church minister.—St. Louis
Republic,
David Hume and His Wine.
A jocular bequest of David Hume to
his friend John Home was curious.
Home liked claret and disliked port,
calling It poison, and the two friends
had many discussions on the subject.
They also used to have disputes as
to which of them took the proper way
of spelling their common family name.
The philosopher, about a fortnight be-
fore his death, wrote with his own
hand the following codicil to his will:
“I leave to my friend, Mr. John Home
of Kilduff, ten dozen of my old claret
at his choice and one single bottle of
that liquor called port. I also leave
him six dozen of port provided that he
attests under his hand, signed John
Hume, that he himself alone finished
that bottle at two sittings. By this
concession he will at once terminate
the only two differences that ever
arose between us concerning temporal
matters.”—New York Tribune.
Ringing In the Ears.
“Ringing” in the ears is a most pe-
culiar condition. It is interesting to
learn that, though the brain so dis-
tinctly receives an impression of sound,
there is really no sound at all. The
sensation is produced by derangement
of the nerves of the ear, caused by
poor circulation or such pressure and
interference as come from hardened,
excessive wax, boils, etc. Some one
oddly remarked that when the ears
were ringing they were “insane.”
Truly, they carry wrong impressions to
the brain. They record things that do
not happen.
A Weather Stone,
A writer tells of a curious stone that
is to be found in Finland. It is a
! natural barometer and actually fore-
| tells probable changes in the weather.
i It is called a semakuir, and its pecul-
| larity is that it turns black before ap-
! proaching rain, while in fine weather
it is mottled with spots of white. In-
vestigation has shown the stone to be
a sort of fossil, mixed with clay, rock
salg and niter. When the air is moist,
the salt turns black; when the air is
dry, the salt shows in white spots en
the surface of the stone.
A Strong Face.
“Facial expression,” said the thought-
ful looking mau, “is not confined to
human beings by any means. For in-
stance, some time ago I went to call
fon a friend of mine, who was not at
home, Ilowever, a dog of his was
there. 1 looked at the dog a moment,
(and he returned my look. Then some-
thing in that dog's face seemed to take
hold of me and simply root me to
the spot. It was his teeth!”—Chicago
News.
The Clever Nurse.
Grandmother—Why, nurse, whatever
are you thinking of to bring so young
an infunt into the open air on so cold
and windy a day as this? Nurse—But
you surely do not think that so small
a child understands differences in tem-
perature ?—I1 Mondo Umoristico.
So Forgetful,
“Why do girls wear engagement
rings?”
“On the same principle that a person
ties a string around his finger—so they
won't forget they're engaged.”
