Sharpening Himself.
When the trains stopped at the little
southern station the tourist from the
north sauntered out and gazed curious
ly at a lean animal with scraggy bris
tles, which was nibbing Itself against
a scrub oak.
"What do you call that?" he asked
curiously of a native.
"Itazorback hawg, suh."
"What is ho doing rulibug himself
against that tree?"
"He's stropping hlsself, suh. Just
stropping hisself." — Ladles' Horns
Journal
"Dad," Welsh Term of Affection.
A correspondent of the Christian Her
ald, the Itov. John K. Nutting, writes:
"I am convinced that the custom of i
using 'dad' or 'daddy' as a substitute I
for papa or father has not arisen from |
any other motive than sincere affec
tion. 'Dad' (sometimes 'tad' or 'tbad')
is a word for father in Welsh, and is
used as such in the Lord's Prayer in
tbo Weish New Testament. Doubtless
'dad' or 'daddy' has come to us through
the intermarriage of Welsh and Eng
lish. So considered It is really an affec
tionate enrichment of our language."
Cooling Water Without lea.
To cool water without using Ice get
a slender glass test tube from any
drug store. Half fill It with nitrate of j
ammonia salts, fill up with water, cork
tightly. Shake till the salt Is dissolv
ed. Re careful to wipe the outside of
the tube dry In order that all traees of
the nitrate may be removed. I'lace
this tube into a glass of water and agi
tate as you would with a spoon. The
water Is rapidly chilled. The nitrate
of ammonia salts can be bought ut any
chemist's.
What the Trouble Was
A Mrs. Malaprop was overheard on
a street car while telling a friend I
about the illness of an acquaintance. •
"1 don't know Just what the trouble
ls," she said, "but I believe there is
something the matter with her spiral
column. There is a vertibrat out of
place, or something of that sort And '
it is apt to go hard with her, just get
ting over puniouy."
Seeing Both Sides at Once.
Pishes and birds have an advantage
over human beings in their ability to
see on both sides of then). Their eyes
are set not for looking straight ahead,
but for looking out on each side. That
is because they balance their bodies to
right or to left, while we balance for
ward and backward. A bird can watch
the tips of both wings at once. The
pilot of an aeroplane has to turn his
head from side to side to see his wing
i lua.—Now York World.
Novelists and Love.
Charles Lever believed that novelists
should retire or at all eveuts refrain
from writing love stories in due season.
In his fifty-ninth year the author of
"Charles O'Mnlley" writes to his pub
lisher: "What you hint about a real
love story is good, but don't forget that
Thackeray said that 'no old man must
prate about love.' As to writing about
love from memory, It is like counting
over the banknotes of a bank long
broken. They remind you of money, It
is true, but they're only waste paper,
after oil."—London Mall.
