Thackaray's Twopenny Tart.
nilH Thackeray story Is told by the
late Charles Brookfield in his "Rnn
dom Reminiscences." "Early In their
married life," he writes, "my father
and mother lived in lodgings in Jer
myn street (he was curate at St
James' church at the time). One even
ins he unexpectedly brought home
Thackeray for dinner and introduced
him to my mother. She was rather
overwhelmed by the knowledge that
there was nothing in the house but n
cold shoulder of mutton. It was too
late to contrive anything more elab
orate, so to 'give an air' to the table
she sent her maid to a neighboring
pastry cook's for a dozen tartlets of
various kinds. 'Which of these may I
give you?' she Inquired in due course
of Thackeray. 'Thank you, Mrs.
Brookfield,' said he; 'I'll have a two
penny one.'"
The Listener.
Years ago some one said that "a
good listener is preferred to a poor
talker." And every one who has ob
served good listeners or listened to
poor talkers have come to the conclu
sion that the fellow knew what he was
saying.
There is quite as much art in listen
ing ns there Is In talking. Simply to
remain quiet does not signify that one
is listening. To listen nieaus to pay
attention. It implies that one is learn
ing something. It is in line with the
words of the wag concerning the owl,
which runs something like this:
A wlso old owl lived In an oak,
The more he heard the less ho spoke;
The less he spoke the more he heard.
Why are wo not like that wise old bird?
—Dayton News, j
Fathoms Deep.
The boy yawned over his geography.
"IIow deep la the ocean?" he Inquir
ed, pointing to the center of the Pa
cific.
"Thousands of fathoms, my son
thousands."
"Well, how much Is a fathom?"
"A fathom Is—er—er—are you look
ing at the Pacific? Well, your Uncle
Karl years ago was shipwrecked In the
Pacific, and the pirates came out after
him, and the cannibals—but I'm too
busy now to tell you the story. Run
along to bed." — St. Louis Post.-Dls
patch.
Gonts In Switzerland.
In Switzerland If a boy plagues a
goat ho may be fined and sent to Jail.
If a person meets a goat on a path
and drives the nnimal aside he may lie
arrested. If a goat enters the yard of
a person not Its owner and Is hit with
a club or stone the person guilty of
the offense must pay 30 cents. If the
engineer of a railroad train sees a goat
on the track he must stop the train un
til the animal can be coaxed away.
