The poet was favoring a frleudlj boiiI with his last verses, says a writer iu St. James' Budget. The verses were descriptive of a beautiful girl. The poet read: "Her hair was massed In flowing curia, Tho color of a whisper." This made the listener "sit tip.'1 "What's that?" ho snld. "Read thai again." "I thought you would say aomethlne about thnt," the poet answered. "1 d-in't want to appear egotistical, bill that little phrase gives some scope foi the exercise of the mind." "In what way?" The poet laughed. "Don't you see," he said, "how beau tifully that describes the simile of hot hair? Every poet speaks of golden hair or raven locks. To be tt succesi one must be original. Well, she did not have golden hair. It was nearly golden, anil I convey the impression by means of that one word." The other Ktlll looked puzzled. "You have heard," said the poet pa tiently, "that silence Is golden?" "Yea." the other admitted. "Well," resumed the pM't, "If silence is golden what would a whlspir bel It would tic nearly golden, wouldn't KJ" The poet laughed again. The othei was slttirrg down anil could not stag ger, so he laughed too. The Orgen. Like most important inventions, thnt of the organ Is veiled In mystery.

The merchant who has 'something Just us good' Is no more to be depended upon than a clerk iu n certain country store which. n, friend visited to buy something. "My friend had been Invited unex pectedly to make nn automobile trip aud was not fully prepared for it. The ronds were very dusty, and lifter traveling several miles the party came to a little country village, where my friend thought he might Is? able to purchase something to protect his clothing. The antoiiiolilje halted be fore the general store of the village. My friend alighted und accosted a drowsy , clerk. "I wunt to get a linen duster,' he said. " 'I am very sorry,' said the clerk, 'but we are Just out of linen dusters. I can let you have a nice fen.tb.cr duster!' " The Wearing of a Watch. At a meeting of the British Watch and Clock Makers' guild "Which If the better way to keep a watch at night lying Hat or hanging tip?" was debated. The genernl opinion was that It was better to let it lie Hat. The vice president of the guild snld it depended upon the kind of watch. If It were one such as Captain Cuttle wore or anything Incapable of glvlnp, some sort of timekeeping, the wearer should be ndvlsed to keep It always In one position. It will wear out soon er, but that does not much matter. A good watch should lie flat nt night. The variation of rate bet ween hang ing nnd lying Is very small, nnd the difference Is practically constant, so that the menu rate is constant. In the hanging posit Ion all the parts are run ning on the side benriiifs, where there Is the greatest frh'tlon and wear. P,y letting the watch lie flat at night aud run on the end bearings, where there Is Ipsr friction, the wear Is distributed and the watch liinile more durable. Joys cf Teing Fat. According to a writer, In an English magazine, it Is the fat men that get all the good things in life. They are con ducted to the best tables at restau rants, they get the corner seals in the theater and always seem to Lav enough money to get along without worrying. When a fat limn enters a drawing room, doesn't he always gi the most comfortable chair? asks the writer. When his hat blows off on a windy day, doesn't some one always run after It for him? No one expects him to i:et up iu n litis or n train to give his seat to a lady. lie would block the gangway If he did. Even his wife doesn'l expect lilm to stoop to pick up things when she drops them. Everybody tells him the best stories, because everybody likes to hear him laugh. When the Woman Fainted. A traveling man wns In n snioklna car when n man rushed in from the car behind evidently In a great airita tlon and said: "Has any one In tills nr any whisky? A woman In the oth er car has fainted." Instantly a dozen flasks were uro dtiood. The man who had asked for it picked out the largest one. drew the cork, and put the Isitlle to his lips. With a long, satisfied slirli. he handed the flask back and remarked: "That did me a lot of good. I needed It, for It always makes me ill to see a woinnn faint away." Kansas City Independ ent.

The king ob tained a divorce. She then married the Count of Anjoii. who shortly aft erward ascended the English throne, and gave him ns her marriage dower the rich provinces of Poltoit nnd Gul enne.
