"I don't know -what '■we're' a-coming
to," said "Oncle Bela Cummings, as he
surveyed a sheet of thin paper which
had accompanied a periodical sent to
Aunt Maria by their daughter .in New
'York. .      -
"What's the matter now?" asked
Aunt Maria, tranquilly.^ "What • are
you doing with that sheet ol' paper,
Bela, and -where are your specs?"
"I'm hunting for 'em now," said Un-"
cle Bela, excitedly-, "and I suppose this
here," shaking the paper,1"-"is a new
map, and. the way it's cut up by the
railroads is a~sharpe..and.,a- disgrace!
I don't see how there's room Jeft for a
decent house-lot in the whole state!" *
"Well, now, find youi* -specs; .and
read wliat it. says," ootids-led* Aunt
Maria, abandoning __er-soeks.;,tp look
over Uncle Bela's shoulder. "Perhaps
they're only prospecting the roads as
yet; maybe they won't be built any
more'n some o' these" western towns'

and iio^vheres else. ReadNvhat it says,

"It says," faltered Uncle Bela, with
a confused expression on his countenance, " 'Pattern of skirt and jacket

USED WORDS HE UNDERSTOOD
Clever    Idea   of   Lawyer   That. Won
Sailor Juryman to His Side
of the Case.
It was a clever lawye'r'in a. Boston
court recently wfio 'took advantage
of the nautical knowledge he possessed to work upon the mind of a
juryman who did not seem to show
much comprehension of a. case of*
suing a.street railway,for: damages.
The. dull member was alii old sailor,
who, though doubtless Vary keen of
perception along some lines, was nevertheless rather slow in his understanding of the points inv.olved in.the
case being tried,, says the New York
Journal. The lawyer noticed this and.
made his strike with. tMs particular
man. Approaching the jury .box, he
addressed himself to this one juryman and said: *•-.--
■■■: "Mr. Juryman,/1 will tell you how-"It.
happeped. - The plaintiff was Jn com-
niarid of the outward bound 'open car,
and stood in her starboard- channels.
Along came the inward bound closed
car, and just as their bows met- she
jumped, the track, sheered to port, and
knocked the plaintiff off and ran over
him.". „.,
The sailor was all attention after
this version of the affair, .and joined
in a $5,000 verdict for the injured
man.

'*"    Importance of Table  Manners.
Emerson declared: "I could better
eat with one who did not respect the
truth or the laws than with a slovenly and unpresentable person. Moral
dualities ruie the world, but at short
distances, the senses are despotic."
There is "nothing more offensive to
truly polite arid cultured people than
careless vulgar table manners.

Pinned down to hard facts,, these- men
of science are-forced to 'admit- that
their deductions are in great measure
mere speculation.-     * ,:*•.,
Countless dates have been assigned
to the earth's creation, ranging' all 'the
way from 3616 to 6984 B. C.',* dne just
as authentic apparently as the other.
There is in fact no way to fix the date
with any degree of certainty. -For the

Dictionary Lore.
"Poison" and "potion.""are doublets,,
the former being an older form of the
latter. Both, are derived from the
Latin "potare," to drink, and-""poison,"-
in its original sense, signified merely
something to drink.'
"While the word   "human," used   as-
meaning "a human-being," is now only
colloquial or humorous, Lowell," in the
introduction to the "Biglow   Papers,"
chided Bartlett for including it in his
"Dictionary of Americanisms,"- and re-;
marked that it was Chapman's habitu-"
al phrase in liis translation pf "Homer,.
