It had been a bad week all 'round.
The baby had been sick, an' I'd lost
such little sleep as I could've got,'
an Molly had been res'less an'
worried an cross. I had been, too:
there's, no use o' thinkin' I hadn't'
an when I'd been later n T
be at the' train a couple o' mornln's
i got hauled over the coals for it, an'
that didn't make me feel any better.
Then I lost a few dollars through
countin my pay in the street Felt
so sure I could handle It, when
whiff the wind had taken one of
my bills 'way out of sight- "Well.

or the money for the doctor's bilL '

was tired an impatient," I didn't
think of how she'd had to bear some

my own loss. Mvl but ma m
up! 'No use to save a few pennies
forme to throw away dollars! No
use tryin' to be careful of ten cents,
when I could let ten dollars blow
away like a puff o' smoke!" "
"I didn't answer back much, but
got my supper an had a nap, though
by this time I was so mad I didn't
want even to look at her my Mollyl

said "Sly, I s'pose 'Good nightP 1

Well, my temper hadn't enoll An

a good deal worse. I'd thought
of how hard I'd -wnrWI
things I'd done to make MrtlWa f

you'd left me for good! I couldnt

wanted to say I was sorry. Oh,

It Is a common mistake of Ameri
cans to think that the predicate

nobility. In the low countries
taai is, in -the. kingdoms of the
Netherlands and Belgium "ran"
has no particular meaning. Names
with "van" are to be read on shops.
as well as on the doors of the most
aristocratic mansions. The humblest
persons have it as well as the moat
refined, j On the other hand, a great
number of the very oldest families
are without It In Germany 'Von"
means noble, and all persons belong
ing to the nobility have "von" be
fore their family names without m
exception. Persons who do not be
long to the nobility cannot put "von"
before their names, as they have no
right to do so, and would be found
out directly if they assumed It, and
make themselves ridiculous. But
In case of a man being knighted for
some reason or othe-he has the
right to put "von" before his family
name. For instance, when Alex
ander Humboldt was knighted he be
came Alexander von Humboldt, and
