AMIDST PEALS OF LAUGHTER.
For prolific maternity hell credit
mttst be given to Mrs. Josephine
Ormsby, of Chicago, who bad four-
teen ehildrea at seven births, They
included "one set of triplets, two
pairs of twins, three singles, and one
set of quadruplets." The quadrup-
lets brought fortune in their train,
for Mrs. Ornmby made $500 a week
by exhibiting them at a dime mus-
eum. But Mrs. Ormsby must yield
the pain to the wife of a Parisian
baker, who actvally became the
mother of twenty-one ehildren itt
seven births, and all within the
space of seven years; while to prove
that Prance has other family records
to boast of, we are told by Boyle of
a French lawyer who was tho father
of forty-siX children.
An interesting question in the his-
tory of families is --Who has lived to -
see the greatest number of ifescena
dents? So far as the writer knows,
the record of Lady Temple, of Stowe
has never been beaten. Lady Temple,
who died in 1656, it man he men-
tioned, 'survived to see no fewer
than 700 of ber descendants. A few
years ago Mrs. Sadie Shiver, of
-Southern Georgia, bad 235 children,
grandchildren, great-grandchildren,
and great -great-grandchildren living,
aod 75 more were dead; the old
lady having thue lived to see 310 of
her own descendants.

poor business; it identities you at

get you any Sympathy, after all."
The Irian who whines confesses his
weakness, his Mobility inatch his
environment. It is too much for
him. He cannot COlninand the' situ-

complain. The habitual whinee never
gets anywhere, never accomplishes
anything. 'Phe man or Avonaan who
