The naming of them for any large general audience Is <iuite impos sible. All that is possible in such a connection is to state emphatically that there are very few books that are equally suitable to every kind of in tellect," says Clement Shorter In bis book of "Immortal Memories." "Tem perament as well as intellectual en dowment makes for bo much In read ing. Take, for example, the 'lmitation of Christ.' < ieorge Eliot, although not a Christian, found it soul satisfying. Thackeray, as I think a more robust in tellect, found it well nigh as mischiev ous as did Eugene Sue. There are great books that can be read only by the few, but surely the very greatest appeal alike to the man of rich intel lectual endowment and to the man to whom all processes of reasoning are Incomprehensible." Same, but More of It. Sitting in a Broadway restaurant the other evening were two young women who had not met for four years. One of them had grown stout and the other had admitted that she wouldn't have recognized her old friend under ordi nary circumstances. They sat silently looking at each other for a moment, when the heavyweight inquired: "What are you thinking about?" "I was just trying to see whether your expression is the same as it used to be," said her friend. "Just the same," the girl with the avoirdupois declared. "«>nly more of it."—New York Globe. An Irish Talc. One day an Irishman, having put his hat upon a gate post by which lie lay down to sleep, sprang up at midnight and, mistaking the object for an en emy, dealt it a desperate cut with his scythe. Perceiving his mistake, the man gave thanks to heaven that In had taken it off before lying down. "For," said he, "had my head been in that hat, 'tis ten to one I had laid it open with my scythe, and 'tis a daad man I would have been seein' mcsilf at this minute!"— London Captain.

A young man stood before the mirror completing the finishing touches ton toilet of which he felt justly proud. He was going to call upon the girl's widowed mother to ask for her daugh ter's hand in marriage. At last everything was complete ox cept his cravat. Before him on the dressing table spread the two cravats between which his choice rested, one, a neat black with a narrow white stripy, which lie had bought himself: the oth er a cravat which the girl had given him for a present, a tie such as only women purchase. "If I wear the black and white one, I'll look my best.'' he mused. "On the other hand, if I wear the one she gave me I'll please her immensely, but will look like a fright." Then he whistled, walked around the room and carefully tied his cravat. The mother said, "Yes," although there were tears in her eyes, and the girl thought lie was the handsomest and best dressed man in the world. Which cravat did he wear?-Bohe mian Magazine. In the Ghost Laying Business. This advertisement appeared in T.on don in 1777: "Haunted Houses.—Whereas there are mansions and castles in England and Wales which for many years have been uninhabited and are now falling into decay by their being haunted and visited by evil spirits or the spirits of those who for unknown reasons are rendered miserable even in the grave, a gentleman who has made the tour of Europe, of a particular turn of mind and deeply skilled in the abstruse and sacred science of exorcism, hereby of fers his assistance to any owner or proprietor of such premises and under takes to render the same free from the visitation of such spirits, be their cause what it may. and render them tenantabie and useful to the proprie tors. Letters addressed to the Ilcv. John Jones, .°.o St. Martin's lane, duly answered and interview given if re quired. N. 15. Rooms rendered habit able in six days." Durability of Glass. It does not seem odd to find inscrip tions written ages ago still visible on the Tower of London or 011 the steeple of some cathedral, but one would hard ly look 011 a fragile pane of glass in a common window for characters 200 years old. A notable case in point is that of the old house in London where in the notorious Jack Sheppard once lived as a carpenter's apprentice. One of the window panes still bears an in scription cut in it by a glazier's dia mond recording the name and address of a man who preceded Jack's master in that house. The inscription is, "John W'oolley Brand. Painter and Glazier. March 12, 1700." That was nine years before the com ing to the house of the famous Jack Sheppard and over 200 years ago. Alexander the Great's Escape. As a young man Alexander the Great escaped death in a curious man ner. A great banquet was being held at Bella, the capital of Macedonia, at which were present the future con queror of the world and his father, Philip. During the feast one of the guests proposed a toast and prayer of fensive to Alexander, who hurled a goblet at him. King Philip, angry at this outrage, started up, drew his sword and rushed furiously upon his son, but he had drunk so deeply that before he reached him he fell prostrate among the terrified merrymakers. Not a whit perturbed at this extraordinary escape from death, Alexander retorted. "Here is a man preparing to cross from Europe into Asia who yet cannot step surely from one couch to another." London's First Pawnbroker. No one would guess that "uncle"' had so illustrious an ancestor as a right reverend prelate, yet this seems to be so, for pawnbroking was first intro duced into England by Michael de Northburg, bishop of London, in Ed ward lll.'s reign, lie set up an estab lishment for lending money to the poor er Londoners on portable property, and, according to Dugdale, if any sum so borrowed was not paid at the expira tion of a year the preacher at St. Paul's cross was to announce that the pledge would be sold in fourteen days unless it was previously redeemed.—Pearson's Weekly. The Servant. "Remember," said the patriot, "that so long as you hold public office you are a servant of the people, a plain servant." "Great Scott!" answered the subur ban resident who had just been elect ed. "Can I act as haughty and over bearing and take as many holidays as all that?"— Washington Star. Hard. "I'a, is it true that all men are made of dust?" "I've had reason to think lately," re plied the man who had been trying to get his notes extended, "that a good many of them are made of cement.'*— Chicago Record-Ileraid.

(With sudden illumination) "I booed, but I didn't Iloo."—Puck. Straws show which way the wind is blowing, but not how soon it may change. Did He Refuse? They were alone in the conservatory. He turned to her. Ills voice was low, but passionate. "You know,"he said, "why I have asked you to come here. Will you be my wife?" She looked at him intently. "No," she answered, and she uttered the monosyllable as if she loved it. No doubt she expected him to reel and clutch at something, but he did nothing of the sort. "Very well," he briskly said. "That's all I want to know. Shall we go in and finish our dance?" She stared :it. liim in wonder. "Are aren't you hurt by my refusal? Don't you Intend to do something des- j perate?" "Desperate? Certainly not unless you call tackling the lobster salad des perate." Her pride was sorely wounded. She had meant to hurt him. It would have been a proof of her power. Now she hungered for revenge. There was only one way to get even with him. "George," she said, "I have reconsid ered my decision. I will be your wife." And the two scrawny rubber plants and the three yellow palms quivered with suppressed laughter.—Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Lace Dressers. Lace dressing has been considered a necessarily unhealthful occupation 011 account of the intense heat required to be maintained in the room. In some cases llie temperature exceeds 100 de grees F. and much moisture is evapo rated from the wet fabric. The evi dence brought forth at a recent inves tigation in England, however, shows it to be an exceedingly healthful pursuit New workers are often temporarily up set ill the leginning by the high tem perature, but no cases could lie found where health had broken down, tin the contrary, some ailments—colds, for Instance—wore found less prevalent among lace dressers than among the workers in other branches of the in dustry. Time keepers' books showed few absences from illness. No special tendency toward lung diseases could be found, notwithstanding tiiat most of the workers lived in poor and insani tary localities and led Irregular lives. Many lace dressers now enjoy vigorous old age after doing this work from childhood.—lndianapolis News. The Deaf and Dumb. In early times it was an opinion, maintained even by philosophers, that the education of the deaf and dumb was impossible. It was then believed that language could bo acquired only through the medium of the ear, as shown by the couplet of Lucretius: To Instruct the deaf no art could ever reach, No care Improve them and no wisdom teach. The first mention of instruction for the deaf and dumb is found in Bede, A. D. 085. No other case is met with for some centuries. Rudolfus Agrlc ola of Heidelberg makes mention of an educated deaf mute in his "Dialec tica," 1480. it was not until 1020 that instruction for the deaf and dumb be gan to be general.—New York Amer ican. Frederick the Great. Frederick William 1., father of Fred erick the Great, was a most brutal old fellow, treating his sou almost as badly ns they treat the exiles in Siberia. Un able to endure such barbarity on the part of his father, Frederick resolved to run away and seek refuge at the court of his uncle, George 11. of Eng land. Iteady to assist him in his at tempt were his two young friends. Lieutenants ICatte and Keith. By the imprudence of Katte the secret was found out, and Frederick was placed under arrest. Keith escaped, but Katte was tried by court martial, sentenced to death and executed. Frederick also was sentenced to death and would have been shot but for the earnest ex postulations of the kings of Sweden and Poland. A Powerful Combination, Tim was a protege of Mr. Blank, a well known Boston lawyer. He was often in trouble, but by personal influ ence with the courts Mr. Blank man aged to have him let down easy, so it became a matter of talk, the Green Bag says, that lie did not suffer greatly in being arrested. "now is it, Tim," some one asked one day, "that you are arrested very often, but never goto jail or pay any fines ?" "It's just this way," Tim replied. "I have Mr. Blank for me lawyer, and what lie doesn't know about the law I tells him." Didn't Want to Be Left. Miss Yere—Mr. Desmond, why did you goto the dining doom before you greeted the hostess?
