When asked to explain she said: "I am blind, and I said to my fellow straw workers, 'How much i money do you spend in a year for oil in your lamps when It is too dark to work at nights? They replied.

Curiaua Wagers Recorded at White' ;; i j Club In London, j 1 The betting book of White's club Id London contains the record of some extraordinary wagers. The idle gen tlemen lit 100 years ago could give their successors of today sundry hints on eccentric betting. : ; Here are fac similes of some of the records. One reads: ' ..:":.. W "Mr. Methnen bets Colonel Stanhope 10 guineas to 1 that a worthy bar onet understood betveen them does not from necessity part with his gold tee paila", before this day twelvemonth. The Ice palls being found at a pawn broker's' will not entitle Colonel Stan hope to receive his 10 guineas." . This peculiar wager was made In 1813, and another one, recorded the same year at White's, may have ref erence to the same hard up personage. Ureadsj, "Lord (Alvanley beta Sir Joseph Cop ley 5 guineas that a certain baronet understood between them is very much embarrassed in circumstances. In three years from the dote hereof,. If one ojf bis bills Is dishonored or be Is observed to borrow small change of the chairmen or waiters, Sir Joseph is to be reckoned to lose." Here is an odd one: ".Mr. Butler bets Sir George Talbot 20 guineas to 1 that he Is not in the room at White's ' with Napoleon In the courso of the next two years April 21, 1815." History shows that Mr. Butler won that guinea. Christian Science Moni tor. Wagner's Last Words.
