What Was Missing.
Dr. Watson (Ian Maclaren) used to
tell a story about his trip to the Holy
Land, to which he had been looking
forward for a number of years with
pleasurable anticipation.
As he was nearlng the center of his
toric Palestine he met an American
who was making all haste to get away.
After such greetings as two English
speaking men meeting in a foreign
country might exchange the Ameri
can asked Dr. Watson where he was
going.
"To Jerusalem," was the reply.
"Jerusalem!" exclaimed the Ameri
can In tones of unfeigned disgust
**ou don't want to go there. I've Just
come away. It's a Blow town. Why,
there isn't a single dally newspaper in

The Flag at Half Mast.
The custom of showing the flag at
balf mast originated from the way at
sea of showing the pre-eminence one
ship had over tbe other in time of war
fare. The vanquished always had to
lower Its flag, while the victor's would
be raised as high as possible In exul
tation. To lower a flag Is an act of
submission or betokens respect to a su
perior or Is a signail of distress. The
hoisting of a flag half mast high came
to be used, therefore, as a sign of
mourning and respect

enough for both of us to laugh at"—

A Merited Rebuke.
At the age of eighty-six Mme. Reyn
olds still found much zest In life,
and, having retained all her faculties,
she felt that a few of the physical dis
abilities of her age were of small ac
count and portended nothing. Her
nephew Thomas was a man of much
worth, but of a certain tactlessness of
speech, which always roused the ire
Of his aunt.
A few weeks before the old lady's
eighty-seventh birthday Thomas, who
had been overweighted with business
cares f«r years, started on a trip round
the world which was to consume two
years.
'•'I've come to say goodby," he an
nounced when he appeared at his
atint's house in a town fifty miles dis
tant from his home. "I'm starting
round the world next week, and as
I'jn to be gone two years and perhaps
longer I thought I might not ever
well, you understand, I wanted to be
sure to see you once more."
-The old lady leaned forward, fixing
him with her beadlike eyes.
"Thomas," she said Imperatively,
•*do you mean to tell me the doctor
doesn't think you'll live to get back?"

Couldn't Blame the Fish.
Abroad minded dominie, whose par
ish was near the headwaters of the
Susquehanna, had among his parish
loners a character who was more punc
tual at the fishing hole down by the
river than he was at church on Sun
days. Bright and early one Monday
morning this Sabbath fisherman called
the preacher to tbe door and presented
him with a very fine and tempting
string of pickerel. The.dominie was
very profuse with his thanks for a
gift that was indeed welcomed.
"But, look here, parson," said tbe
man, still retaining the fish, "those
fifih were caught yisterday and maybe
ybur conscience won't let ye eat 'em."
"Never mind that," and the dominie
itretched out-his hand for the string
