HONORS AND WORTH. Abenrditr of Title% That Detreenfl Front 'utiter to on, When you find a man a most excel- lent runner, poet, surgeon or mariner, you give hien due respect for his skill. If he is very eminent, his occupation este:01110 aa(l you chance to be some railing power, be may receive a title. You „do not confer this title because of his grandmother, and you do not make the old lady a duchess or indeed pity her any particular attention. This omission does not reflect discredit on the grandmother. It is obvious to her mina that to make her a peeress be- cause not she, but some one else, has done something "good" would be as absurd as giving .iter twelve mouths' hard labor if he had done something otherwise. Still less rational would it be to make the man's son a peer. Tho 010 lady has given the world this grandson, Perhaps she is In a measure the cause of his greatness, just as she might be to a certain extent responsible were he a criminal. But the son of the man did not make his father. IIe is not to be more greatly praised for what his father has done than for what William the Conqueror 010. The world seldom or never gives a man a title because his. father earned one, but it does au equally silly thing when It allows a son to inherit such an "honor," says Home Notes. Until a man can transmit merit it is absurd to allow liim to transmit a tes- timonial as to merit. And, if there be no pretense- of claim to exceptional worth, what solid reason can be ad- vanced for a man receiving a designa- tion that commands deference? TOOTHPICKS. A Visit to London and a Little Len - sou In Etiquette. "I ran over for a sbort visit to Lon- don," said a globe trotter. "On the boat was a pretty widow from Altona who disgusted and amused all hands one day by saying: "'I am surprised that a fast and ex- pensive boat like this should fail to supply us with toothpicks.' "She thought toothpicks indispensa- ble, like napkins or forks. For think- ing so we set her down as a hecker. But wait, "I dined during my visit in London at Prince's, in Piccadilly, and at the Savoy, in the room that overlooks the embankment and the river, and at the Carlton, where I paid a dollar for a plate of soup, and at all these restau- rants, which are admittedly the finest and the smartest and the most fashion- able In the world. At all of them there were toothpicks on the table, each toothpick done up in a sterilized en- velope. "This taught me a lesson. It taught , me that it is narrow and provincial to ' despise people for their disregard of certain small rules of etiquette. Tho things we despise them for, which may be glaring errors In Seattle or New York, may be again, as like as not, the correct thing in Paris and London." A worthy equire had a cow that al- ways kicked and reared when milked. He decided to get rid of it, and calling one of his farm hands, told him to take the animal to market. "Sell the brute," he said, "but mind you, tell no lies, I've been unlucky in my purchase, but that's no reason why I should dect•ice others." Two hours later the man re turned from market with a larger sum then the squire had expected. "I'm sure yon lied about that now" he said'•Nt t a bit of it," replied the man; "every time I was asked if she was a good milk- er, I simply said, "You'll get dead tir :d of milking before you've got allher milk." They asked no other questions, so I didn't volunteer any more answers." Quiet men make the moat noise in the world, r Crime often comes from co-operating carelesmness. The bravest men in this world are the quiet women. Many of our sorrows would die if we 'ceased watering them, Faith pats its feet on reason and opens its eyes to revelation. A man's eocialogioal theories often depend on his social status. It may be that your burden seems heavy because your crown is in it. It you would de great things you must • learn to be deaf to discouragement. If it does yon no good to give a dime, it will pay you to try the e ffeot of a dollar, The people who hunt for faults never And the one nearest at hand - The doctrinal nota that are hardest to crack often have nothing but dust inside. You cannot me*,cure a man's oloseneud to God by the oloeeness of hits didpodi tion.

The speed with which sound . waves are transmitted through the atmosphere depends on several conditions. When the temperature is at 32 degrees F., sounds move with a speed of 1,000 feet per second, the velocity increasing with the temperature at the rate of about one foot of speed per second for each degree above the freezing point, Then, again, in damp air sound moves with a greater velocity than it does in dry air, no odds if the dry air be warm and the damp cold. In water sound moves more than four times as fast as it does in air, or, say, at about the rate of 4,700 feet per second.

A curious industry in Russia and one which nevertheless finds employment for thousands of men is that of mak-T ing wooden spoons. In the district of Semenovsk, where they chiefly come from, no fewer than 7,000 men make a living at the trade. The spoons are generally made from birebwood, and a skilled workman can turn out sev- eral hundred a day. No fewer than 12,000,000 spoons are manufactured during the course of the year, which are sold at 6 to 8 rubles per thousand, They find a ready market and pene- trate as far as Persia, Khiva, Bokhara and Khokand. 11uslum as. A woman who shall be nameless fur- nishes the following essay on hus- bands: "There are three kinds of husbands -- the young Husbands who make us un- happy because we are so jealous of them, the middle aged. husbands who break our hearts because they would rather make money or play golf than devote any attention to us and the old husbands who sicken us with their silly objections whenever we turn to look at younger men."
