The author of "Two Year* In the
Forbidden City." tlif Princess Per
1.1ns, was a lady in waiting ?t the
court of the fa moil* empress dowager
of Cblna ller majesty, the princess
tell.-* ns. had an excellent estimate of
herself "I bare often thought." *he
i nnoe confessed, "that I am the most
| clever woman that ever lived and
that other* cannot compare with me "
Notwithstanding this favorable opin
ion, there were Interesting lapses In
universal knowledge, as when Miss
Carl painted Iwr portrait, and her ma
Jesty noticed the artist's signature In
the corner of the canvas.
"Well, I know foreigners do some
funny things." she remarked, "but I
think this Is about the funniest 1 ever
heard of. Fancy putting her name on
I my picture. This will naturally con
; vey the Impression that It Is a |iortralt
1 of Miss Carl and not a portrait of my
self at all."
I Even after the princess who was of
1 wesiern education had explained. and
the empress had consented to allow
the signature to remain, she was any
thing but satisfied.
Don't B? Too Export.
I Having dinned from n business
j college with honors, the young man
thought himself competent to tackle
any problem In banking that could lie
learned without actual experience, but
the old clerk knew tietter
"Can you make an erasure so neatly
that it would take an expert to tell
where ft had been doneT" he asked.
"Yes. air." said the young man, with
conscious pride.
"Well, for heaven's sake don't tell
your prospective employer so or you
j will be looking for a job this time next
year." the old clerk said.
"Employers are afraid of too much
skill iu that direction. It gives such
enwnous opportunities for fraud that
they will tight shy of hiring you.
"I found that out in my young days.
I also was an expert with the Ink
eraser and proudly proclaimed my ac
complishment. Finally when I found
myself toeing the starvation mark I
ceased to In wist and have held a good
position ever since."? New York Times
Advortiting Brought Up to Oat*.
The president of m Pittsburgh sav
ings bank called in bis advertising
man one morning and said:
j "What this Institution wants is some
striking advertising material, some
thing that has a thought in it, some
thing that will catch the eye and com
mand the mind. Fix me up an ad. that
will make n hit when it is published in
the morning papers."
Two hours later the advertising mail
laid this on the bank president's desk:
"If Elijah were living today there
would l>e no ravens to feed him. That
brand of raven has gone to roost for
ever.
"The only bird that will feed you
now Is the eagle ou the American dol
lar. Catch the eagles. Save the dol
lars. If you do you and your family
will never starve. You will have Eli
jah backed off the boards."? Popular
j Magazine.
No Answer Handy.
This Is only worth the telling, writes
a correspondent, because It contains a
retort which, though a triumph of in
consequence, seems to me quite unan
swerable. I happened to be reading
some obvious newspaper proofs In a
train when the good natured man next
to me, with the intention no doubt of
making himself agreeable, nsked, "Ah,
are you connected with the press?" I
Intimated briefly and perhaps not over
courteously that It was none of his
business. He persisted that it was a
quite civil Inquiry, which I met with
the remark that I had not asked him
whether he was a clerk or a shop as
sistant. As he was obviously neither,
this nettled him. "If I knew." he said,
"what newspaper you belong to I
would nevei buy It again."? London
j Chronicle.
Thackeray and Dickons.
This is the way George Henry Lewes
once characterized Thackeray and
Dickens In the way of service to a
friend: LMrkens. he said, would not
give yon a farthing of money, but he
would take no end of trouble for you
lie would spend a whole day. for In
stance, In looking for the most suitable
lodgings for you and would spare him
self neither time nor fatigue. Thacke
ray would take two hours' grumbling
indecision and hesitation in writing a
two line testimonial, but he would put
his hand Into his pocket and give yon a
handful of gold and bank notes If you
wanted them.
Bonus.
"Bonus" ought to be "bonum," since
It Is evidently Intended to mean "a
Rood thins" and therefore should be
neuter, not masculine. The word is
is found as early as 1773. but no one
knows who was the Ignorant or will

it, though conjecture assigns it to the
London Stock Exchange.

Satisfying Honor In India,
They had a peculiar way of going
Into bankruptcy among the Marawarls
In India, now unhappily giving way to
the less picturesque method of the
white man. When a man could not pay
his bills he would summon his cred
itors. They were ushered Into a room
In which the thakur, or household god.
was enshrined, but covered up with a
cloth and with the face turned to the
wall in order that it might not witness
the scene that was to follow. The In
