The few may subject the consideration it res, but the many, there is reason to lear, are guided by impulse. A skipper of a coasting vessel called at the village inu and asked the land­ lady, a young .widow: "Do you know where I can get a mateP I have lost nay mate." "I am sorry for yon, Mr. she «aid, smiling. "I want a mate too, and cannot get one. As we arc in the same position, I'll tell vou what I'll do; if youfll be mine I'll be yours."

Perhaps she understood the doctor's difficulty and wished to help him out of it; at any rate the giving of her hand led him to offer his heart. This was how a gentleman got his wife when, in a tobacconist shop, he asked a girl behind the counter, who happened to have red hair, if she would oblige him with a match. "With pleasure, if you will have a red­ headed one," she promptly replied, with such a suggestive, demure smile that eventually the red-headed match was handed over. A lady with a fine figure havin; taken a fancy to a valuable ring whic she saw ticketed in a shop window went inside to examine it.
