days he enjoyed financial prosperity.
A prominent merchant, an old
friend of the family, attended the fu

A Futile Experiment ' :
William Williams hated nicknames.
He used to say that most fine giva
names were ruined by ’abbreviations,
which was a sin and a shame. “I, my-j
self,” he said, “am one of six brothers.j
We were all given good, old-fashioned
Christian names, but all those names}
were shortened into meaningless or‘
feeble monosyllables by our friends}
I shall name my children so that it‘
will be impracticable to curtail theirl
names. ’ ‘
The Williams family, in the course’
of time, was blessed with five child-i
ren, all boys. The eldest was named!
after the father—William. Of course
that would be shortened 'to “Will,” or
enfeebled to “Willie”-—hut wait! A
second son came and was christened
Willard. “Aha!” chuckled Mr. Wil
liams. “Now everybody will have to
speak the full names of each of these
boys in order to distinguish them.”
In pursuance of this scheme the
next three sons were named Wilbert,
Wilfred and Wilmont.
They are big boys now. And they
are respectively known to their infi
mates as Bill; Skinny, Butch, Chuck
and Kid—Cleveland Plain Dealer., '
Unprepared Base Threatened '
Tominy Tonkins was keen on base
ball and particularly ambitions to
make his mark as a catcher. Any
hint, however small, was welcomed if
it helped on his advance in his ‘de
partment of ' the game. When he he
gain 'to have: trouble with his hands,
and somebody suggested soaking
themin salt water to harden the skin,
he quickly - followed the advise.
fiAlas! a few days-later Tommy had
a'inisfortune.‘ A‘ long hit at the bot
tom of' the ‘garden sent the ball crash
ing thru a neighbor's sitting-roam
window. ‘ It was the third Tommy had
broken since the season began.
,Mrs. Tonkins nearly wept in anger
when Tommy broke the news.
“Yer father’ll skin yer when ’e
comes ’ome tonight,” she said.
Poor Tommy, trembling, went out
side to reflect. His thoughts traveled
to n the strap hanging in the Idtchen,
and he eyed his hands mefully. . _
“Ah!" he muttered, with a sigh. “I
made a big mistake. I ought to ’ave
sat in that salt and water."-—Pitts

Teaching Geman But Goes
a Step Further
That some of the Lutheran

At a meeting of the oflicial!
board of the parish school of the I
Trinity German Lutheran churchl
called today to consider abolish-J
ing the teaching of German, it'r
