IIow Squire Bond TVa I'ooieu.
Squire Bond, whose descendants are
fareiaost in Springfield affairs, kept a
general store in the early part of the cen
tury out on the borders of Worcester
county, and like all storekeepers of tL?
period he sold rum. One old tippler
whose credit "was very weak got badly in
arrears, and Mr. Bond got wary about
trusting him. Tho tippler came in one
day with bis jny half full and wanted it
filled clear up, as he was going away.
Tho liquor was poured in until it came
ap to tho cork, but when the squire asked
for tho money it wa3 not forthcoming.
No pleas could induce him to trust any
longer, so ho poured oat as much as he
had put in and the tippler went away.
The liquid which had half filled the jug
beforehand was not rum, but water.
Springfield Homestead.
Phillips I J rooks as a Schoolteacher.
It is related that the first attempt of
Phillips Brooks to begin a career was a
discouraging failure. After h left col
lege he became a tutor in the Boston
Latin school, but the principal was so
little imrretsed with bis capacity thai
he
r.r.1
ied for his
resignation.
When
jroung Brooks then decided to enter the
ministry, the pedagogue- predicted his
failure on the ground that he had never
known any one to succeed in anything
else who had failed in school teaching.

A Puzzled Youngster.
Harry is the youngest of the family,
the only boy among several girls, and
sometimes the superior advantages of
girls seem to weigh heavily on Ms youth
ful mind. The other day we heard him
say thoughtfully to himself: "Women
always first. I wonder why God didn't
make 'em first, but he didn't. He made
Adam first." New York Tribune.
The Woman to lie Pitied.
The woman who must earn money and
at the same time keep house, nurse
babies, sew up seams, manage servants
and attend to the complex affairs of an
establishment is to be pitied. She has
far too much for one pair of hands to do.
