Ou the omjHion of a dinner
Sydney Smith was the guest,
and when the evening was o
yer the host thanked t l. e
wit heartily for the entertain
ment he budafiorded. Ihall
not forjret you, Mr. Smith
lie added, "Thank you. Take

self tomoi'row (it was Satur
day) in church" rejoined Mr.
Hmith, whereat the host,
Kernhaw ly name, rather
bridled up.
,"l hope sir I know how to
Itehave myselt in church."
"Well." said Smith good
temperedly, "if I catch you
smiling I will call you by
name." i'Yoti may," rejoined
the visitor. "The thing in ab
surd, I will give you a dona
tion to the York huspital if
it happeus."
On the. ensuing morning
Smith read the prayers rever
i ntly, as he always did, then
ascended the pulpit, Jooked
Hfpund the church and rest
ed his eye on the visitor,
whose name is Kershaw,
That 'gentleman said after

Philadelphia Record.
Passenger vouch No. 4219
of the Philadelphia, Wiltniog
ton and Haltimore Railroad
has a regular riderevery day
in a robbin that is so deeply
engrossed in material affairs
that she doesn't in the- least
mind the roar and rattle of
the train. Underneath thecar
on a broad beam that sup
ports a portion of the air
brake, she has built a nest,
and all her energies are bent
upon batching some bine
eggs.
The car remains at West
Chester every night, comes
to Philadelphia in the morn
ing, makes a trip to Morris
town, returns to Broad St;
station and makes fts I a s t
run of the day to West Ches
ter. The bird must have ac
complished the work of buil
ding her nest during the brief
stops made by the tram at
the towrs to which it runs,
hut why it should have selec
ted in the beginning is t h e
most surprising thing.
The nest was discovered
several da vh ago by a rail
road man at West Chester.
Be saw the robbin fly from
brneath the car and made
an investigation, the result
of which lather astonished
m a
ura. J. he members of tee
train crews that run the car
are awaiting developments
with almost paternal anxie

one of President MeKitiley's

that one or two of.her citi

gone there since, but it is too
modest to do so.

That conditions make men
ciuelwhen only kindness is
meant.
That women seeking the
ideal overlook the practical,
and finally accept the com

That journeys projected for
pleasure arc turned into ener

That erroneous conclusions
are created through the has

The first impressions become
ridiculous in the 1 i g h t of

That a man with a fad e-

That men accept notoriety
for fame and thus become

That a women will say 'no'
