Young Mabel had a habit when
soup was served at the table of
mushing her crackers or bread in it
until it was a great mess. Her moth
er made many efforts to have her
correct this strictly primeval habit.
One day there was to be company
at the table, and the mother said:
“Now, Mabel, Mrs. Brown is to
dine with us tonight, and I want
you to act at the table just as nicely
as she does. Please don’t ‘mush’
your soup.’’
Mabel promised faithfully to fol
low the example set by Mrs. Brown,
and the dinner opened with every
promise of a fine time. However,
Mabel was using a pair of very sharp
eyes on Mrs. Brown and in an in
stant blurted forth at the top of her
voice:
“Oh, mamma, Mrs. Brown is
‘mushing!’ May I?”
Lucky She Didn’t Wake Her.
The following conversation was
overheard at the breakfast table be
tween little Helen, aged ten, and an
older sister:
Helen—Last night I had an aw
ful dream, sister. 1 dreamt that I
was going up, up, up, and then I
came down, down, down again.
Sister—That was your soul going
up to heaven to have all the naughty
things you have done taken away.
Then it came back again to your
body.
Helen (after a moment of
thoughtful silence)—But, oh, sis
ter! S’pos’n’ you had wakened me
while it was up in heaven, what
would I ever have done without it?

Tht grandfather of a boy of six
or seven years is a man of a great
deal of prominence in the world of
letters and affairs. A lady calling
at the home of this distinguished
gentleman was lining entertained
for a few minutes bv the little
grandson, and the caller said:
“You ought to he verv proud of
vour grandfather. You know that
he is a great man.”
“Huh!” said the boy. “If you
think that my grandfather is a great
man you just ought to know my
grandmother!” — Woman’s Home

plead that the Titanic came lo her
end without her owner’s “priv
ity," and that consequenlly Ihe
company cannot receive even the
limitation of its liability which
the British law provides.
This loss of life and personal
injury amounts lo 15 pounds, or
about $75 per Ion on the gross
tonnage of the wrecked vessel,
and for properly loss to eight
pounds, or $i0, and in Ihe case
of |he Titanic Ibis is reckoned al
about $5,00(1,0(1(1. The American
slalute, on Ihe oilier hand, would
have limited Ihe liability to the
value of wreckage saved, in this
ease only a few lifeboats and Ihe
