The Clothcraft clothing of to day will outwear that of ten or five years ago, even though the cloth quality be the same.

A good anecdote is reluted of a young minister who was supplying the pulpit f the Wrptithnm Congregational church during the absence of Its pus tor, the ltev. Kllslia Flsk, better known as "1'rlsnt Fink," whoso pastorate la this ouurvh cerwed a period of iifty rix years. Upon opening tlio Illblo the young nilulHter eunie ucroxs the following no tice, which he rend: "Mr. Llbblus Por ter desirtis the prayers of the congre gation, that his Ioks may be sanctified for his good." Hlgns of suppressed merriment ap peared through the congregation, but the cause wus a complete mystery to the young minister, who upon nrrlvlng ut the home of XI r. risk for lunch lu ll ui ml of Mrs. Klsk the euuse of the unseemly hilarity.

Loudon Express. Ilia Voice Keeded Flllna-. There is a young medical student living lu Wcstport who has decided not to speak to a girl he knows. lie was culling on the young woman recently, ami during the evening he volunteered to slug. When he had concluded bis song be turned to the girl. "I'm think ing of taking voice culture," he said. "Do you know of a good teacher whose charge Is reasonable?" "I know the very one for you," Bhe replied. "Ills name Is Taylor. Give me a card, and I'll write down his telephone number for you." The young man gave her the curd. Next day ho culled Taylor up on the telephone. "Is this Mr. Taylor, the vocal teacht r?" be asked. "The what?" came over the Mire. "The vocal teach er." "Naw," was the reply. "I don't teach nolhlu'.

A Physician In Every Menagerie. AH animal keepers are supposed to study the needs and ailments of the animals under their charge, and they understand the best methods to coax I their dumb friends into submission; but, in addition to these keepers, every' circus and menagerie has one or more physicians who prescribe for tho sick animals.

Hospitality has long been reckoned amsiig the virtues of this nation, but aow very virtuous Auierlcuns are la this respect W probably not realised even by the'ii till they go to other countries anil experience the hospi tality offered there. Of course, the Englishman, being our own llesh and blood, Is given to hospitality almost up to the American standard, although "cohio and lunch with me" is apt to be tho extent f bis Invitation to a mate American on the other side. The American In I'arls knows thut for eigners receive few Invitations to breakfast or dinner from tho I'urlslun. French people do n good deal of enter taining, but it Is largely confined to tho circle of their relatives, among whom a degree of devotion exists thut Americans can hardly understand. In Italy a cup of afternoon ten marks the wiltlcst flight of hospitality that the visiting American is often asked to consider. An amusing story is told of un Italian aristocrat a very great man luvltlng a German nobleman to cutue and drink coffee after dejeuner! The Evil Eye. The meaning of the evil eye, the "ophlhalmos baskanos" of tbe Greeks, the "faselnare" of the Itomnus, was probably far more than a vulgar super Hi I loll. We 11 ml truces of It lu almost every country, notably to this duy among the eiiiiny Scots who Inhabit the western Isles of the sea, of "Ulva dark and t.'olonsay," of Skye ond the Heb rides, and among the Turks, who dis trust the evil eye of (he stranger, lint In oltl classical days the power seems chiefly to have been used fur the pur pose f grievously afflicting the live stock of disagreeable neighbors. So we find to this day lu Ireland, parts of Scotland and the west of England where this belief Is still prevalent. Cer tainly, In some form or other, mesmeric fascination by the eye has always been known. Hut that any one person, with no matter how evil an eye, should be uble to charm frlghtene.l animals to any extent o,' aumlier 1i ridiculous aud not seriously to be entertained for one moment.-Chambers' Journal. Why n "I.lmlicd" Train t The question why Is n "limited train" so colled ha.t been propounded to a general passenger agent, who replies as follows: ' First. It Is limited as to its time. Second. It Is limited as to the num ber of cam aud weight of train. Third. It U limited as to tbe class of cars. Fourth. It is limited as to the num ber and cluss of passengers permitted transportation thereon. This last limit Is udopted so that every passenger mny have amplo uc connnodutlou and not be crowded or interfered with by other passengers. The fact that un additional fare Is charged on a limited train and, fur ther, that uotuing but first class tick ets are incepted for passage tends to limit the class of travel which is car ried. Trae In Every Lsneonxe; Tennyson once attended a dlnuer , where (1. L. Cralk proposed "The La dies." Iu doing so bo recalled the cyn- , leal advice f,1ven by a brother Scot to his children: "Tak my advice and dinna ' marry for siller. Voti can borrow cheap er." Homo time later Tennyson at his own table repented Mr. Craik's story, bt:t expressed the Idea without at tempting dialect. His son Hallam re marked, "Surely, father, Cralk did not use those words." "No, he did not. But, then, Cralk Is a Scotchihan, and I am afraid to venture on repeating him ex- ' nctly. However, It's almost as good In ! English as lu Scotch, and It's tremen- dously true In both." To Remove a Tluht It I no;. If you happen to get a ring on your finger that lits so tight you cannot re move it a very easy way to get It off is as follows: Take n piece of cord or wrapping thread and push one end of it midur tlie ring. Then, beginning Just above the ring, wind the cord very tightly round and round the finger clear up to the tip of the finger. Now take bold of the end of the cord that was slipped under the ring and unwind the cord. As the string unwinds the ring will be curried along with It and removed without nuy difficulty. A Bootleasi Attempt. "Ma," said Tommy Twaddles, look ing up from his reading of "Terry the Tenspot," "what is a bootless at tempt?" "It's the sort your father makes to get In without my bearing hlni u hen lie conies borne late from the club," answered Ma Twaddles incisive ly.

While siane persons ure In full or ganic decadence ut thirty-flve years, some others may not yet ut fifty years have undergone the modifications of nutrition which are the beginning of old age. The capacity of a man for violent uxertlon Is determined by the more or less complete Integrity of the arterial tissues. In some cases iirterlal sclerosis Is nothing but the gradual and slow consequences of the advance of agv but assumes a rapid puce that makes it a fearful malady. In Bach cases we euu see young iersoiis pre- KcuMng the same physiological rcac lions against fatigue as the elderly man. One of the llrst symptoms of that acute aging of the arteries which Is culled arterial sclerosis is tho dyspnoea of effort. All elderly meu are In different degrees tainted with arterial degeneracy, aud all ought to avoid excessive muscular effort if they would not weur out their arteries be Hore the time-that is, would net grow old prematurely for every man is "of tbe age of his arteries." Friday and Thirteen. In Great Britain there are two partic ular SHperstlHons which have probably the largest following thut Friday Is an unlucky day and thut thirteen is an un lucky number. Frldiiy's bad character was derived from the fact that it was the duy of our Lord's crucifixion, as wt-H us the one on which Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, and like wise the day of their death. Sailors have slfil a strong objection to begin ning a. voyage on that day, although isul conditions often make It lm peiaMva. In Christian countries, too, the swpernlillon of thirteen at dinner betmf tmhielfy ami that one of the din es wWl die before the year is out is ahie oT nHiileul origin, being revived frban tlut Inst supper of onr Lord with hla twelve apostles, but the superstl tleu Is much uuterlor to Christlanltf, Thirteen ut dinner In old Norse inytfjol-epj- was deemed unlucky because at a banquet In the Valtmlm Lolii onco In truded, making the thirteenth guest, aud 11a Id u r was slain. London Globe. They Got the "Glnaay Eye." A certain confectioner lu New York, who cuters chlelly to the little folks of the neighborhood, lately arranged his shop window with great care iu preparation for a local festivity. The crowning attraction of the whole was a large chocolate tiger with most realistic green eyes made of glass niarblus which had cost the designer '35 cents apiece. In the tiger's mouth waa a curd bearing the inscription, "fothlm In this window over 5 cents a quarter, pound." A cjwd of youngsters quickly as sembled en the sidewalk, and present ly, nfter much spelling over the plu corjl, two of them Invaded tho shop and deposited a nickel upon the count er. "Sity, mister," began the smaller buy earnestly, "gimme a quarter o' a pound o' tiger the piece with the eyes In!" An Odd Wedding- Cnatam. A unique wedding custom prevails In Manchuria. The bride and her attend ants, ail mounted on stilts, proceed through the main streets of the village to tho domicile of the groom, who meets the procession and conducts It to the place where the ceremony is to bo performed. Ho and his friends are also on stilts. Social prominence is in dicated not by richness of attire, but by the height of the stilts worn by the assembled guests. Tbe higher the rank of Hie wedded pair the loftier the stilts they wear. If, as sometimes happens, the contracting parties are of differing social standing t?he effect Is more than usually ludicrous. Having Fan After Death. A humorist lu Jnpnn Who jested alt his life told his friends whun bo was dying that his body was not to be washed after death, but was to be taken ut once to the family temple to be cremated. When he died his In structions were followed. As soon as It was set on fire the mourners were astonished by several loud explosions. At first they were Inclined to take to their heels, but curiosity got the better of fear, and careful Inspection showed that the humorist had stowed away a large number of firecrackers about bis person before bis death.
