M ■ Unreasonably Tough. Grlmstead, who was a foreman In a New England factory, was visited one day by an old friend from the west "Old man," said "his friend, "how long have yon been working In this mill?' "Nearly thirty-five years," he an swered. "Isn't It customary in establish ments of this kind, when a man has been In Its employ as long as you have, to retire him on a regular stipend —a sort of honorarium, as it were?" "To put him on the pension list, do you mean?" "Yes, If that's what you call It." "Well, yes, It Is." "When do you suppose they'll retire you?" "I - Suppose they'd do It any time they thought 1 wanted to be retired." said the old foreman, shaking his head with profound sadness, "but 1 don't want to quit so long as I'm still capable of doing my work. ''I've been keeping tab on myself, and the misery of it is, Wlgfall, that I haven't begun to let up the least bit I'm just as good as ever!"—Youtb'p Companion. Learned How to Pack Trunk. "I have the man who came for my trunk to thank for one thing," said a. woman; "hereafter I think closing my trunk will have less terror for me. You see, I always seem to have it sc crowded that it requires the combined weight of several members of the household to close that cover. Well, the other day, wh >n It was Ume to take my trunk to tue station, there we were, three of us, trying to get that trunk closed and locked. Finally, in sheer despair, I looked at the man who was patiently waiting, and In a most appealing way, invited him to sit down upon that trunk to see if he could close it. Did he do as I stig gested? No—something better. He calmly lifted up the top of the trunk took out the top tray and fitted it in the top of the cover; presto, that cover, with the top tray inside, went down as nicely as could be. I am not trying to explain why it did, but ! know that It did. And, like a mission ary, I am passing the Idea along." No Pirate Gold. Johnny McDermott, the 14-year-old son of a Long Island farmer, had been hearing of Capt. Kidd's buried gold I ever since he could remember. In digging a woodchuck out of his hole a few days ago he came acrosa an Iron-bound box. He thought he had found a golden treasure for sure, but after lugging it home and breaking it open the contents turned out to be rusty knives, forks and spoons that ♦ some robber had buried.

"It is a rare thing tlo seo the women of India these days w-earing any valu able gold jewelry, as they did In years gone by," said Chardon Oawtrey of Bombay. "When I first went to the Orient the women of the upper class commonly owned and wore thick chains and bracelets of the finest gold and of exquisite workmanship. In these times of pinching poverty they are too re duced financially to possess any ex pensive ornaments and instead of the gold trinkets of their affluent days despised. they would have formerly It is pitiable to witness, as I have, the .decline In the fortunes of the people.
