Hlcksltes are a numerous body of rationalistic Quakers In America, founded by Ellas Hicks (1748-1830). who In 1827 seceded from the Society of Friends and created a schism In that body by his promulgation of Uni tarian doctrines.

The American University at Wash ington. D. C, is beginning the erec tion of buildings to cost S2.000.000. The Methodists hope to crown their educational system with this post graduate Institution. In two respects the American Uni versity will -be unique, says the Edu cational Review, in that it will be the only educational Institution In the United Btntes which will confine its Instruction to post-graduate studies tnd will not have any undergraduate schools attached to Its scheme of edu cation, and that the university will not enroll any students until every 'itillding is erected and the total r-s-iets, property and endowment ante -nt o at least 110.000.000.

With much fuming pad vriggling he finally released hlmpir. "Confound that blasted window:" le thundered, almost exploding with rage. "I feel like I could chew It up n hits, glasB and all."

Why, that i low likes you. In fact, it Is rea'ly iffoctlonate." "What! Are you joshing me? Tlu window affectionate?" "Certainly, sir. Didn't It fall on our neck?" And then the humorous little Iran ranished toward the smoker. Boston's Costly Subway. The costliest mile of undererornd railway In the world is said to be '.lie new Washington street subway of Boston, which passeB through the shopping district. Its constrtn-t'on md equipment has amounted to $!0. 5O0.0000, or about $2,000 a lineal foot. The first Bectlon of Boston's mod :rn system of rapid transit, consistinr of subway tunnels, was opened abou: 1 1 years ago. This was followed by 'he erection a few years later of the ele vated road. And subsequently to that the system was extended by the con struction of the East Boston tunnel under the harbor. The opening of the Washington tunnel marks the lat est and one of the most important ex tensions. Bravest of Living Things. The mongoose Is very brave, but the most courageous of all living things is, by common consent of nat uralists, the mole. Seemingly with out any sense of fear whatever, the mole will fight anything that crosses Its path. It never raises the white flag. Neither giving nor asking quar ter It tears away at its adversary un til it kills It or is killed itself. The mole appetite Is in keeping with its courage, and it thinks nothing of eat ing its own weight. In appetite the spider Is a close second to the mole, but when it comes to fighting the mote carries the palm. A Dreary Land. The country from Jerusalem to the Jordan valley is as dreary and deso late as could be Imagined. The hills look like great banks of rock and sand. Not een the Sahara Itself looks more forbidding. It Is the "country not Inhabited." the wil derness into which the scapegoat was driven. We are all glad we went, but none of us could be induced to go again. Zion's Herald. Lazy Samoans.

The Invention of coinage is due to the Greeks, most probably to the bankers of Halkamassos and adja cent Asia Minor Greek colonies, who toward the end of the eighth century B. C. began stamping the small gold and electron Ingots which passed through their hands as currency with mark of some sort Intended to guar antee the weight and purity of the metal; such ingots very soon assumed a round and more regular shape, which we find already in old silver coins from Aeglna. nearly contempo rary with A3la Minor "beans." Curious to say, none of the sur rounding peoples with whom the Asia tic and European Greeks were In con stant communication, political or com mercial, took up the wonderful inven tion which at present seems to us of such obvious necessity that we scarce ly realize bow the civilized world ol gldyig ban . it oa without It, VENTED HIS CURIOSITY. Little Boy Anxious to Know Mysteries of Bishop's Toilet. The visiting bishop had taken charge of a class of small boys, and had been much flattered by the ab aorbed Interest which one youngrter had taken In all that he hnd sa'd and done. At the conclusion of the lesson the bishop said kindly: "Now, if any of you boys have a question to nsk I shall be very glad to answer It." The boy who had been so atten' v during the lesson raised a hesitating but an eager hand. "Well, Jo'm:i; ?" encouraged the bishop. "An' kin I ast anythlnk?" questioned Johnny. "I shall be glad to answer any question," replied the bishop with a benign smile. "Well, thin. Is thlm (Indicat ing the bishop's robes) all yer. liev on or do yes wear yor pants under thlm?" he questioned with the eagerness of long Bent-up-curloslty. j His Singular Infirmity. "What is your name, little boy?" asked the teacher. "I'll have to write It for you. ma' am." said the new boy, hesitatingly. "I think not My hearing Is quit good. Your name, please?" "I'd rather not tell you." "Are you ashamed of your name?" "No, ma'am, but " "Then we will not waste any mora time. If you please. I am waiting." The boy's eyes rolled wildly In their sockets and hla face became con torted as he began: "Kuk-kuk-kuk-kuk Clarence! That's ny fir;!t name. The other Is Pup-pup-Pf-pup Perkins! I never stutter Yept when I'm speaking iny name, and when I'm nagged like this I'm a whols lot worse, nin'am." Wanted the Feet. Here la a verbatim copy of a letter received by a local stove concern: "Gentleman's Dere Sirs: I re ceived de stove by which I by from you alrlte, but vy doti't you send me no feet, what is de use of de Btove ven he don't get no feet i !o:;e to you ao customer suor tirt by hevlng de feet as tats no very pleasure for me wat la de matter mit uu is nut my trade money as good like another mans, u lose my trade and I mad like hell and now I tell you are darn fools ind no good I send you back de stove tomorrow forever because you are iuch darn foolishness. ,"P. 8. Zlnce I rite dis, I find my .'eet In the oven." What the Ailment Was. A New Kngland statesman was re erring to the dry humor of the late 'enator Hoar, when he was reminded tf the following: One day Hoar learned that a friend n Worcester who had been thought o have appendicitis was In reality suf 'erlng from acute indigestion. Whereupon the Senator smiled gen ally. "Really." said he, "that's good news. I rejoice for my friend that the trouble lie? in the table of con rats rather than in the appendix." 'Tit Distance Lends Enchantment. An exact definition of a gentleman has been tried many times, never per haps with entirely satisfactory results. Little Sadie had never heard of any if the various definitions, but she managed to throw a gleam of light on lie subject, albeit one touched with unconscious cynicism. The word was n the spelling-lesson, end I said: "Sadie, what is a gentleman?" "Please, ma'am," she answered, "a gentleman's a man you don't know very well." Sounded Like Sarcasm. "What's this?" demanded the cus toms officer, pointing to n package at "he bottom ol the trunk. That is a foreign book, entitled Politeness." enswered the man who ltd Just landed. "I guess I'll have to charge you luty on It." replied the Inspector. "It ron'petes with a small ar.d struggling Industry in this country." Put It on Himself. "I thought you were working on Smith's new house," said the house puln'er's friend. "I was going to," replied the houp-j ;a!nter, "but 1 bad a quarrel with him, ind he said he'd put the paint on him self." "And did he do It?" "Yes; that is where he put most ol It" Inappropriate. The captain was explaining what would be done In case of accident. "And should the ship strike rock," he continued, "we'd burn red lire and send up rockets."

Comparatively few persons have ever heard of the bells of the Bastille, yet they are still In existence. After the destruction of the prison, says the Gentlewoman, they found their way to the great foundry in Romllly, but the manager of the works disobeyed the rders he received and did not de stroy them. Now they are back In Paris, In private house in the Avenue d'Eylan. On each bell lr eugraved, "Made by Louis Cheron for the Royal Bastille.
