Dr. Wilham George Ward, the eminent theologian, was much disturbed at the con- gratulations his fnends sent him upon the birth of his first son. They made him seri- ously angry. ‘1 have been for years,” he said, ‘doing valuable intellectual work at Oxford and in this place which few men have the knowledge or abihty to do, and no one ever wrote tu congratulate me, I have a son —athing any man may do—and I receive fifty or a hundred letters of congratulation. It is intolerably absurd." It had always been the habit in the Ward family, if two relatives differed strongly, to arrange not to be on speaking terms. Dr. Ward was once asked how much he had known of his father's first cousin, Sir Henry Ward. He replied quite gravely : “1 only saw him twice—once as a boy, when he came to sce my father, and then again I had an interview with’ him about a matter of business soon after I came into my property. We arranged at the end of it not to be on speaking terms,” quite a superfluous arrangement, as Sir Hen’ Ward lived at that time in Ceylon, of which he was governor, and, in fact, never came again to England for a prolonged visit. Dr. Ward aed his brother Henry had been es- tranged fora year orso, and one night they met at the Haymarket Theatre. Each of them had for the moment quite forgotten the quarrel and friendly greetings passed, and a talk about the play. Next morning came a letter from Henry Ward.“ Dear Wittiam: Inthe burry of the moment to- night, 1 quite forgot that we had arranged to meet as strangers and I write this lest you should misunderstand me to say Ithink we had better adhere to our arrangement, and I re- main, dear William, your affectionate brother, Henky Warp.” Dr. Ward replied : ** Dear Henry : I, too, had forgotten our arrange- ment. I agree with you that we had better keep to it, and I remain, your affectionate brother, W. G. Warn." —Argonaut. Whenever there was to be an examination at school little black Sammy generally had a sudden attack of illness, This time, how- ever, his memory turned traitor, so he found himself an unwilling victim. The questions were unusually hard that day, and Sammy felt that he was doomed. ‘His only hope was that the teacher would not call him up: but even this began to vanish, and when at last he heard his name Sammy arose with the air of a martyr. “Now, Sammy,” began the teacher, ‘I want you to tell me in which battle Lord Nelson was killed.” Sammy was in despair, but he must prove himself equal to the emergency, ‘Did you say Lord Nelson ?” he asked, cautiously. ich battle 2” “Yes, In which battle was he killed ?”* “Wal,” said Sammy, with apparent sur- prise at such an easy question, ‘1 ‘specs it must er be'n his last."—Boston Budget.
