He had lent a Turk some money, but the man was unable to pay and on his deathbed laid a particular charge on his wife and children to meet the debt. The eldest son was making arrange ments accordingly, W also died, and he, too, begged his family to pay the money as soon as they could. One day the Englishman received a visit from a member1 of the fam ily, who said that there were now four members of it left and they were ready to pay, but one of the daughters refused to subscribe her share, declaring that the money was never really lent. The others, however, wished to settle the mat ter and if the Englishman would come to the house it would be ar ranged. \But the Turk added, \if you see there is any difficulty just spy that you leave it to be set tled in the next world.” Accordingly the Englishman went to the house at the appointed time and met the family in the presence of a mullah, the ladies be ing behind the screen. The mullah began by asking if he had truly lent the money, how much it was and if he would take any less. One of the women behind kept saying it was all a fraud. The Englishman then declared that he had lent the mon ey, that he had not asked for it, that they had told him to come and get it and if they did not want to pay it he would leave the matter to be settled in the next world. There was d6ad silence for a few moments, and then the women called their brother, and each paid her share without a word. It seems the prospect of meeting the father in the other world without having carried out his wishes was too seri ous a thing to face. Human Ear a Deformity. \While the ears of animals,\ said a naturalist, “are erect and comely, the human ear is crumpled, crushed and flattened. It is man’s intelli gence that is responsible for this deformity of his ear. Man’s brain, you see, has made his head top heavy. An animal’s neck alone fur nishes enough support in sleep, but man’s neck is too weak to sustain his brain weighted skull, which in consequence must be laid, with the ear underneath, upon a pillow. Man, I have no doubt, had an erect, smooth, shapely ear in the begin ning, but his head, with its develop ing brain, outgrew his neck’s power to support it. Thence came the head rest or pillow, with its conse quent crushing arid crumpling of the ear, and thence came the ear of today—a deformity which, being universal, is not deemed a de formity at all.” Story of Duruy and Pasteur. Victor Duruy, the French histo rian, was also minister of education under Napoleon III. One day he and Pasteur shared a cab to drive to the Institute de France and Du ruy proposed to pay. “No change,” said the cabman when tendered a five franc piece. “No matter,” re plied Duruy. “Keep the coin as a souvenir of the fact that you have today driven the greatest man of science in France.” Whereupon Pasteur, not to be outdone, produced another five franc piece. “And keep this coin also,” he said, “in memory of the fact that you have today driven the greatest minister of education that the world has ever seen.”—Pall Mall Gazette. An Accomplished Monkey. A few years ago the police in New York received several complaints from visitors to the Bronx zoolog ical gardens to the effect that while watching the animals their pockets had been picked of small articles. Watch was kept, and the culprit was finally discovered in the person of Jake, one of the monkeys be longing to the zoo. Jake, who has since been sold to an animal train er, was in the habit of waiting un til a spectator came up close to the monkey cage, when he would reach out his hand and pick the inquisi tive person’s coat pocket.—Har per’s Weekly. More System Than Knowledge. A successful man of the self made variety, having purchased a fine library by the foot, was show ing it with some pride to a friend of literary attainments. The self made man ran his business on the card' index system and his library with the same degree of method. Cases were marked plainly, “Trav el,” “Art,” “Poetry,\ “Science.\ Oc cupying a pronqinent place in the \Travel” case the friend noticed a handsome volume with the title in gold letters on the back, “Alice In Wonderland”—Youth’s Com panion. •eld pram House to House by Native* In the Villages. I suppose no question is more fre quently asked than “What does whale meat taste like?” It is a hard one to answer. The flesh has a flavor all its own and quite unlike anything else. In the first place, it is notl at all like fish. And, why should it be, for a whale, although living in the water, is no more of a fish than is a horse or a cow., True, some sfyecies at times eat small fish, but it is not habitual with any of the larger whales, the food consist ing chiefly of a little shrimp about three-quarters of an inch in length. The red meat has a decided gamy flavor and rather reminds one of venison, but its grain is very coarse. The Japanese prepare it in a variety of ways, but perhaps it is most often chopped finely and eaten raw with vegetables, dressed with a brown sauce. One of the most common «ghts of a Japanese village is the peasants carrying great chunks of meat on pans swung from their shoulders, selling it from house to house or in flie streets. The flesh of the hump back whale is most highly esteemed and in the winter sometimes brings as much as 30 sen (15 cents) per pound. During the hot summer months, when the price of the meat is very low and it will quickly spoil, the greater part of it is canned. At the Oriental Whaling company’s stations thousands of cans are made, filled and labeled, later to be shipped to all parts of ^the. empire. —Roy Chapman AndreWb-ip Metro politan. __________ 1 Dickens’ Boyhood Woes. Johnston street, Somers Town, where the London county council placed a memorial tablet to Charles Dickens, was associated with what was practically the first ray of sun shine that broke through the cloud ed sky of the novelist’s childhood. It was in 1825, when Dickens was thirteen, that a sudden improve ment in his father’s finances en abled the family to leave the Mar- shalsea prison and take a house in Johnston street. For Charles, who had boarded out during his father’s detention in the debtors’ prison, this meant the resumption of home life. It meant also relief from the slavery of the blacking factory, for his father was now able to send him to a fairly good school in the neigh borhood of their new qbodc. The Dickenses remained in Johnston street for four yearS, and descrip tions of the locality occur, it will he remembered, in “Nicholas Nickle- by” and “Bleak House.”—Pall Mall Gazette. _____________ Squeaky Shoes. Squeaky shoes were once the prop er thing, especially in the country, says the Chicago Inter Ocean. They gave distraction to rustic swains at the engine company’s dance and made the sober sided devout turn their bonneted heads in church to see who was coming up the aisle. The justice of the peace invariably wore double soles, which squeaked loudly with authority. The parson in prunella gaiters stepped lightly to a sound like that which comes from a mouse in a closet. But ev erybody wore squeaky shoes and boots. They came that way. The reason a shoe squeaks is because of the movement of one tanned sole against another. A peg driven into the center of the sole will stop the squeak, although the shoemaker’s method is to place a layer of thin cloth or paper between the soles be fore they are sewed. . Three yearn ago June 19th, the Prea- Vvterian Church waa organised. Two years ago the bond of union waa con- •ummated between pastor and people. The double anniversary occasion will be commemorated Sunday. The pas tor baa selected as bis theme the lest of the three June sermons, “The Intro duction to Eternity,” or “ God’s Long Day.” The evening eervice will take on a two-fold character, viz.: service and reception. All who have had any part whatsoever in the development of this enterprise are specially invited for the day. , The next regular meeting of the Ladies’ Society will be held at the residence of Mrs. F. J. Hellmutb, 16 Burtis Avenue, Thursday at 2:30 p. m. The Missionary Committee will be in charge of the Y. P. S. C. E. meeting Sabbath evening, 7 p. m .; “ Progress in Africa’’ is the topic. Ih accordance with their usual cus tom the Rockville Centre Club will hold an elaborate display of fireworks on the epadoue lawns of the residence of Mr. George Roeckel on the evening of July 4th. Following the display, cream and other refreshments will be distributed at the club house. The Second Whip. Have you ever noticed, says a writer in a London journal, that some animal tamers carry a second whip in their left hand, which is never used? There is purpose in this. It represents to the wild beast the terrors of the unknown. He has experienced the sharp, stinging flick of the whip in the tamer’s right hand, but for the life of him he cannot imagine what an guish lurks in that mysterious whip in the other hand, which is never used. Many a tamer has saved his life in a critical moment by just lifting that unknown terror above a crouching, growling, fury maddened tiger. _____________ An Accomplished Dwarf. Count Borowlaski, a Polish gen tleman, at twenty-five years meas ured thirty-five inches, which was his greatest height. When quite young he displayed wit and grace, excelling in dancing and music. He was possessed of superior intel ligence and frequented the Prus sian court. So greatly did he de light the ladies of Paris during a year’s residence in that capital that they gave an entertainment in his honor,\ at which the plate, knives, forks and spoons were of dimen sions proportioned to his sue. He wrote nis memoirs in 1788 and died in 1837, a t the age of ninety-eight. The large flag pole presented |The Pequots by Harry McCord of Merrick, was raised Saturday. The pole and flag will be formally installed on the morning of July 4, In connection with other features that are being prepared for that day, the principle feature of which will be the reading of the Decla ration of Independence. All residents of the village, irrespective of political affiliation, are invited to attend these patriotic exercises. The little son of Dominick Milone was painfully injured by being thrown from his father's wagon on Friday last, when the horse ran away. The animal was caught before any serious damage had been done. Willeby Corbett was tendered a pleasant surnrise party by a large num ber of his friends, at his residence, Grand avenue, Friday evening, in honor of hie birthday. William H. Grim has resigned his office as Village Tax Collector. There are quite a number of appHqants for the position. Lincoln avenue has been treated to a dressing of Feekskill gravel by the county authorities. Frank B. Marshall is having cement sidewalks laid in front of his property on Hempstead avenue. Lindiey W. Cook has left for Saranac Lake where he will spend a month. —i ------ During the months of July and Aug ust the public library will be closed every Thursday.
