Abrahaiu Lincolu once remarked that every man about to marry should stand over a doctor with a club and make hire tell the truth In reference to the• chosen partner for life if there was no other way of getting it out of him. Also that the parents who would allow a girl to marry a man without knowing, as nearly as could be known. his physical as web as his moral con- dition deserved to be souped. "The whole marrying business 1e wrong," said Mr. Lincoln, "Fashiona- ble girls have too often foolish moth- ers, who care for nothing but to sell their flesh end blood to the highest bidder." Dear Mrs. Malaprop. There is generally somebody—a lady as a rule—in each district on whom its finest Malaprops are fathered, some- times quite unfairly. It is she who is reported to have made that speech about the glories of her father's house, up to the door of which there ran a "revenue of popular trees;" she who asked her daughter to play that little "malady" she had learned at the "cem- etery" and she again who pronounced Mr. Brown as "proud as Luther," while the tuft hunting Mr. Smith was such a "toby" he deserved to be "tat- tooed" at his club. Dear Airs. Male - prop, what should we do without her? Tenet of the Ancients. The yeast employed by the ancients in making bread was probably of the same kind as the Israelites of the days of the great Pharaoh the oppressor used, calling it "leaven." This was what is known nowadays as a wild yeast, its germs or spores being afloat anywhere in the air. A bit of dough was preserved out of each batch pre- pared for the ovens, and when this was added to the next dough the yeast contained in it quickly spread through the whole, only a little being required to "leaven the whole lump." Discouraged In Almsgiving. "I suppose," said the plain person, "you are often deceived by apparently deserving objects of charity whom you quietly help." "Yes, indeed," replied the great phi- lanthropist. "It's just like throwing money away. The very people you think will advertise you most never say a word about it."—Catholic Stand- ard and Times.
