HER FRENCH A FAILURE. rUe TraseUy of a Blackingr Bottle In the Latin tinarter. She was spending her first month in the Latin quarter of Paris. She spoke English fluently, with a Boston accent: also she spoke German, could make a fair stagger at Italian and knew a few words of Hindoostanee, but of French not a syllable. One morning she found herself in a ■wrestling match with a bottle of French shoe blacking. The pesky bot tle, umlerstandiiig that it had to deal with an alien, refused to give up its cork. She had no corkscrew of her own and did not know how to ask for one, even if she dared suspect that her next door neighbor might be possessed of the luxury. The tihe of her pet fork she had bent on the obstinate plug, the point of her best penknife she had bro ken off short, and nothing remained except to throw the bottle out of a window to get at its contents. She de cided as a last resort, to try breaking the neck off the bottle. With a “stove lid lifter” she administered several cautious taps in the region of the jugu lar of the obstinate neck. “Nothin’ doin’.” Then she tapped harder still, and the blacking came. All over her fingers it came, all over her light wool en skirt and over much of the floor and window -sill. She decided to have the skirt cleaned and, packing it into a bundle, tripped off to an establishment where she found em’uarrassment because she could not understand questions. Final ly she got the drift of the conversation. The cleaners wanted to know what had caused the spot. Fortunately a bottle of shoe blacking was standing near by, and she pointed at this and “ouid” and “ouid” until she left in heightened spirits, feeling that she was not helpless and that she had made the cleaners understand. When the skirt was duly returned the following week, it was dyed black.—New York Tribune. ANIMAL ODDITIES. Breton sheep are not much larger than a fair sized bare. The mandarin duck is one of the most beautiful of aquatic birds. The queen is always at the mercy of the bees and is a slave instead of a A beetle one-third the size of a horse would he able to pull against more than a dozen horses. The greyhound, which can cover a mile in a minute and twenty-eight sec onds, is the fastest of quadrupeds. The giraffe, armadillo andl porcupine have no vocal cords and are therefore mute. Whales and serpents are also voiceless. The glowworm lays eggs which are themselves luminous. However, the young hatched from them are not pos sessed of those peculiar properties until after the first transformation. To escape from dangers which men ace them starfishes commit suicide. This instinct of self destruction Is found only in the highest and lowest scales of animal life. ' Helirsdean Proverbs. The daily talk of the Hebrideans has a shrewd picturesqueness. “Let the loan go laughing home,” they say. That is, “Be careful of whatever you have borrowed.” If a person were to be met coldly on going to a friend’s house, he would “The shore is the same, but the shell fish is not the same.” The Impossible is denoted by “black berries in midwinter and sea gulls’ sggs in autumu.” “Better thin kneading than to be ampty.” That is, “Half a loaf is better than no bread.” “The man who is Idle will put the eats on the fire.” “He that does not look before him will look behind him.” “A house without a dog, without a cat, without a little child, is a house without pleasure and without laugh- Homes In Italy. Speaking of homes and ways of liv ing, Mr. Luigi Villari in “Italian Life In Town and Country” reveals a curi ous state of affairs. In Italian cities there are no slum districts. The poor est of the poor may be lodged in the same palace with people whose income runs over $ 25,000 annually. The poor are packed away in the garrets or in the cellars, to be sure, and their mis ery must be rendered all the more acute by the sight and scent of such lavish living. High class Italians have no objections whatever to dwelling over shop or place of business. F o r g - o t H i m s e l f . Mrs. Henpeck—'We hev bin married twentj- years today, H iram .

Some Matrimonial Experiences Thai \ W o n lA S e e m t o J n s t i f y V o l t a i r e ’s C y n i c a l B e e l a r a t i o n T l i a t “ A n y M a n C a n W c A A n y W o m a n . ” “Any man can marry any woman,” -Voltaire once cynically declared, “if he only pursues her long enough.” This, at any rate, was the experience of Ja cob Halliday, a Well known character in the north of England a couple of generations ago. Never did a lover win a wife under such discouraging conditions as Jacob, for after his first proposal he tvas soundly * hoi;sewhipped by the young lady’s father and ducked in a conven ient pond. “I’ll ask her again next year,” Jacob .spluttered as be emerged from bis bath, the fire of his passion not a whit quenched by bis cold douche. “Regu larly once a year, on the anniversary of bis first proposal and immersion,” Nicholson says in his biography^ Mr. Halliday, “Jacob attired him sw in his finest raiment andr presented Ms peti tion, always with the Same negative re sult. When he presented htiHself, now a middle aged man, foi* tb«' tVv-enty-- fourth time, the lady, greeted his ap pearance with a_peal of laughter. ‘It’s no good, Jacob, I see,’ she exclaimed. ‘I may as Will give in now as later, but what a faint hearted creature the im portunate widow was compared with Sheridan took an equally bold course ■when he sought to v<n the fairest of the heautifiil daughters of Linley, the composer of Bath, who was strongly opposed to the suit of the brilliant young poet and dramatist. His lady love, too, was beset by an army of suitors, many of them far more eligi ble than the penniless law student. The circumstances called for bold and de cisive action. After threatening to de stroy himself if the lady refused his advances and fighting a couple of duels with one of his most formidable rivals Sheridan took t’ne bold step of running away with Miss Linley ami conducting her to a French nunnery, where she re mained in confinement until, succumb ing to her lover’s daring and persist ence, she consented to marry him. An amusing and characteristic story is told of Lord Beaconsfield in the days when he was wooing iirs. Lewis, to whom in later years of married life he was so touchingly devoted. One day Mrs. Lewis, who was then living in retirement at her seat in Gla morganshire, saw a gentleman walking leisurely up the drive. “Jane,” she ex claimed to an old servant, “I really be lieve that horrid man Disraeli is com ing up the drh^e. Do, please, run to the door and say I’m not at home.” Jane opened the door to the undesired caller and gravely announced her message. “I know,” Disraeli coolly answered, “but take my bag to a bedroom and prepare luncheon. I will wait until Mrs. Lewis is read3’ to come down stairs,” which, of course, iSIrs. Lewis felt compelled to do a few minutes “Oh, dear, what can I do with such an obstinate, thick skinned man?” the widow asked desperately later in the day when Disraeli showed no sign of raising the siege. “Nlarry him, I sup pose, ma’am,” was .lane’s philosophic answer, and, as the world knows, the persistent wooer had his way in the end in this as in most other things in A judge, not long deceased, used to tell a diverting story of his wooing. In those days he was a struggliug and ob scure lawyer without even the prospect of an income, and the woman on whom he had set his affections was the daughter of a purse proud man with a high sounding name who was strongly opposed to giving his daughter to a “penniless lawyer.” “Do yon know, sir,” the father thun dered when he was asked for his daughter’s hand—“do you know, sir, that my daughter’s ancestors have all been noblemen and that one of them was a favorite minister of Queen Eliza beth?” “Oh, yes, I know all that,” the young barrister placidly answered, “and do you know that Queen Eliza beth once slapped your ancestor’s face, and unless you are more civil I will do the same for you?” It is scarcely sur prising that so bold and daring a lover had his way in the end, even in the face of such a barrier of ghostly noble ancestors. The late Prince Bismarck, it is said, won his wife in much the same way. Although he had not known the lady of his love more than a few days and her parents were not even aware of his ex istence, he presented himself one day be fore them and boldly asked permission to marry their daughter. In vain the father fumed and blustered and threat ened to have the young man forcibly ejected from the house for his imperti nence. “I am sorry to annoy you, sir,” the young soldier said, “but I must re spectfully decline to leave the house until I have your conseut’l Nor did he, although the consent was given in these ungracious words: “Well, I suppose you must have your way, but I cannot com pliment my daughter on her choice of a mule for a husband.” Surprise Your nother=in-Law W hen she comes to see you by the excellent bread that you may have on your table if it is made from X X X X Minnesota Flour at $1.10 a sack.
