CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JUNE 17, 1909.
They Had Will Power.
I was sitting one morning in a
foraer at Monte Carlo •when two elder
ly men sat down beside me. One wun
evidently a Scotchman, and the other,
I gathered, was from Yorkshire. The
former remarked, "I have just man
aged it." This,l discovered, meant a
win of '2O francs. . Their daily routine
was to appear at the same roulette ta
ble at an ea"ly hour and play the low
est stake of francs on even chances—
that is, on black or red or on the odd
or even numbers. They would lose
and win and win and lose, but they
remained calm and self contained and
persevered until they had each 2U
francs to the good. I observed them
daily. Some mornings they scooped in
the amount in twenty minutes, aW at
other times it was a tough struggle
until luncheon time before they man
aged it. I never saw them fall once,
and I learned that they had pursued
the same plan for four months. One
thing was clear—nothing could tempt
them lo go beyond the modest stake,
and they had the will to stop when
they won the stipulated amount. It
was really one of the best illustrations
of will power I have ever seen, for
few, indeed, who enter the portals of
the casino are able to resist the com
pelling atmosphere of the tables to
play on if losing and to plunge if win
ning.—Chambers' Journal.
Family Jars.
Schoolmaster (to his wife)—My dear,
I wish you would speak more careful
ly. You say that Henry Jones came to
this town from Sunderland.
Wife—Yes.
Schoolmaster—Well, now, wouldn't
it be better to say that he came from
Sunderland to this town?
Wife—l don't see any difference in
the two expressions.
Schoolmaster—But there is a differ
ence, a rhetorical difference. You
don't hear me make use of such awk
ward expressions. I>y the way, I have
a letter from your father in my pocket.
Wife—But my father is not in your
pocket. You mean you have in your
pocket a letter from my father.
Schoolmaster —There you go with
your little quibbles. You take a de
light In harassing me. You are al
ways taking up a thread and repre
senting it as a rope.
Wife—Representing it to be rope,
you mean.
Schoolmaster For goodness* sake,
be quiet. Never saw such a quarrel
some woman in my life.—London
Scraps.
Pretty Slow.
Horace L. Moore was lieutenant colo
nel of the noted Nineteenth Kansas
cavalry. He could lead men for a long
er period without rest on a single ra
tion of cheerful good humor than any
other officer. Though not given to
Jokes, lie was the reputed author of
as many astonishers as the great Lin
coln.
One time, 011 the march, he sent an
orderly with a message to an ollicer at
some distance. Before the man was
out of hearing Moore shouted: "Hey,
| orderly! Come back here!"
lie came galloping back, sitting limp
ly in the saddle.
Moore dropped his voice and, assum
! ing a half confidential manner, inquir
: ed, "Orderly, in the course of your life
j have you over seen a snail?"
"Yes, sir," was the astonished reply.
1 "You met him, then," replied Moore,
"for you'd never overtake one!" —Kan-
sas City Journal.
His business Ability,
j In the Adirondacks lives a man too
lazy to work, but evidently of great
| business ability. One winter when he
I was sitting around smoking his family
| came so near starvation that some of
1 his neighbors, who could ill afford to
help him, took up a collection and
bought for the suffering family a bar
rel of liour, a barrel of pork and a
load of wood. They were not consid
erate enough to cut the wood, but the
business man knew hpw to manage.
He hired some of the neighbors who
j had not contributed to his donation to
j cut the wood and paid them with half
| the pork and half the flour.—Lippin
! eott's.

Admirably Equipped.
! Cardinal Mezzofanti, the famous
1 Italian linguist, who died at the age
J of seventy-five, knew and could speak
| more than fifty languages. He could
! entertain his English friends with
j specimens of the Yorkshire dialect and
i his French or Gertnnn visitors with
j the patois of their respective coun
i tries. "Dear me!" exclaimed Lord
j Byron, to whom this was told. "He
j ought to have been the custodian of
the tower of Babel!"
Breakfast Months.
i A traveler stopped at a hotel In
1 Greenland, where the nights are six
! months long, and as he registered
1 asked a question of the clerk.
"What time do you have breakfast?"
"From half past March to a quarter
1 to May."—Harper's Weekly.
