Thirteen members of the Sprudle Fishing club of Buffalo defied the old superstition one sultry day last August, cwbarked in a yacht belonging to one of the party and made a day of it dwn the river. They visited some ol the pleasure r S)rts on (iraud inland, ale a fine luneh drank much beer and relumed to the city about 10 o'clock iu the evcninii. As evidence of what they hud done they sat before a photographer at sour Spring liroTe and had a group picture made.

DID VOL EVEIt SEE "I can't understand," said a young ady of observation, "why you men, who see so much and know so much, persist iu the phrase, 'Keep a stiff upper lip.' Vou use it as a sort of picturesque syno nym lor urmncss ol purpose and V- meanor, but it has no value as such. The upper lip is not the weak member of the twu. It is the under hp that wants stif fening. The upper lip is practically ex pressionless. It usually lies flat uu the teeth, it is nearly always covered with mustache 1 refer, of course, to the male upper lip and in conversation, especially in correctly languid conversation, it docs not move at all. Like the Chinese joss, it's a harmless creature and can he safely lei alone. "It is the nether lip that has to b watched and controlled. I can always tell when a man is going to propose to me by the way in which he wets his un der lip uud presses it against Ihe upper fur companionship and support, just the very things he is seeking fur. And can always tell if a man is lying by peculiar fluctuation and pulsation in this same lower lip. He will look you right straight in the eye, grow tierce and drop bis voice into his boots through the weight of his emotion, but if there i that twitch about the lower lip I don believe him, and I ve never been wrong yet. If a man feels deeply, I mean feel: sorrow, not affects it, it is in the treuiu loudness of the under lip that he shows it. The sensitive man's lower tip is sel dom still, and there is sometimes about it a positive pulsation that takes in the whole cuive of the chin. The pout be gins in the lower lip and is really confined to it, for the upper lip is only pushed out by pressure from below. You can pout with your upper lip alone. "In fact, you can't assume or affect any expression with the upper lip alone, Just try it. Hold the lower lip firm with the finger and look in the glass there. The mouth has become simply a hole the tace, you see, aud so lar as the ex prtssionful character of the lip goes it is as if you bad lost a feature. "If you want to keep back a smile, it's the lower lip that you must look after Weakness begins there, whether of shar acter, heallh or age. It is not the weak upper lip that tells of down fall. It the drooping, pendulous lower lip that shows il. And let me tell you snmething please, fur the bem tit of my sisters wb have not had the advan 1 incau the ex perienee that I have. Tell them that whenever they sec the lower lip of their male companions tutn out and over thick that it's a danger signal. It's the red flag of mischief, and they had better say good by. Keep a stiff lower lip, young aian." New York Sun. IjOiiigville Courier-Journal . Ouc of the stories credited lo Con gressman John Allen, ol JUSMsssppi, relates to an old negro who went to Washington to secure un office. lie ailed Allen out of his house, and, upon explaining his mission, the Congressman thus turned loose on him: "Do you know anything about pbysi- ology, meteorology, eonchnlogy or biology? ,'an you go back to the paleozoic age and demonstrate in technical terminology the anthropology, fauna or zoology of that poeb? Can you dissect the pterodactyl or the itchthyosaurus or prepare a scien tific report of otie of the pachyderms of the glacial period? Can you reconstruct for the edification of a profound profes sor of buggology the bicacious sauriaus that were seen by early navigators in the dim dawn of tho brazen age?" The old man fell back in dumb bewil dennent. "I say," went on Allen, "can you do these things off hand on cross-examination, without drawing a breath or stop ping to think? Il not, go back to your district and pray for the return of an other era of Democratic sovereign's with a President pledged to the repeal of the civil service act." When, after wiping the oozing s'eat from his brow, the dusky pilgrim from Mississippi finally regained the power of speech, be humbly stammered: "I reckon, sub, dem queshuns is in tended fur young cullud pussons wbut has got dey eddycation in collige. I is jest a plain, ev'yday nigger. I reckon I wua bawn too soon." A lazy man who had lime? A young man who didn't know? Au old man who didn't remember? A politician who wouldn't promise ? A pretty girl who didn't look saucy ? A town go forward rapidly when part of its people pull against the other part? Any kind of weather over which seme body did not grumble ? A man who did not know exactly just how every other business ought to be run except hia own? A mother who felt that her boy , waa to blame for anything?

Should this be so, arouse bim, not by a hailstorm of nagging or a down pour o fault findiug, but by a system ol rewards lovingly adapted to bis disposition and character. Suffer no discouragement to creep into your own heart concerning him, and do uot allow bim or bet to feil that there is reason for auy duubt about its reaching the top of ihe l.iddder in due season. The top, mind, not the mid dle rounds; any one eau reach these. Sel definite aim before your child, cultivate a high and nobl ideal, but be willing to climb slowly. Haste is at the root of many a failure, haste and lack of thor ghoess as one goes on With a tender regret for lost opportu nities, who has uot seen a mature woman timid, self conscious, handicapped from youth to gray hairs simply because she was a "backward ' child ouce, and there fore was snubbed and ridiculed, and pushed into ihe background, while her sisters and brothers horn off the honors and were ihe objects of universal estima tion? A wrong lor life was done to the little daughter, and her daughter may perhaps suffer Iroui the same old mis take, for wrongs are far reaching. Be pitiful and just to the backward child in your home.
