No matter how trivial, it deserves some recognition. A pleasant word and a simile makes the little lad who brings wood and water for mamma smile back in return and be goes cheerfully after another armful. A cheery “thank you, my dear,” after the little daughter has performed allotted tasks, sends her off to her play thinking that it is real nice to work for mamma, and she will more cheerfully respond next time by reason of it. Then we should not be slow to ac knowledge the services of those whom we employ. Because they get paid for their work is no reason why a kindly word of appreciation is not their right ful due. It must be extremely discour aging to say the least to go on week after week without a word of praise, and worse still when our best efforts are un noticed or found fault with. Those per sons who have least trouble with hired help are those who are quick to acknowl edge favors with a kind word, from whose lips the “thank you” falls easily. A haughty manner with social inferiors marks the snob—truly good breeding is indicated by kindness even to those who perform the most menial tasks. Wealth and social position are largely matters of accident; the true gentleman, the true lady may have neither one. A Fool’s Errand. The Klondike season is about to open and it is said that more than 200,000 per sons are preparing to join the spring rush to the land of gold. If this is true it shows that the fool population of this country is lamentably large. It is stated on good authority that all the desirable gold bearing claims in the Klondike have been located and the only chance for the new-comer now is either to pay a big price for a claim or go to work on wages. There will certainly be an over supply of labor and it is safe to predict that if 200,000 persons leave this country for the Klondike this year nine out of ten of them will suffer unless they are amply supplied with money. It is inevitable that every new discov eiy of gold in large quantities should bring misfortune to far more people than it benefits, but we regret to see the Klon dike craze threatening to involve nearly a quarter of a million people in trouble. Culture of Licorice. Surely, in some part of our great country, licorice would be found to thrive. And yet, so far as has come to the knowledge of Meehan’s Monthly, all attempts to cultivate it have failed. The difficulty seems io be with the summer sun. Leaves jlight and turn brown as soon as the weather becomes warm, but this would probably not be the case in submountainous regions. When it is remembered that nearly 20,00<> tons of these roots come into the United States every year from the old world its culture here is surely a prize worth contending for. —Mee han’s Monthly. A consignment of 530 reindeer for the government's Klondike relief expedition which is not needed and may not be sent, has been started from Norway. Possibly some mail contractor in the far north, who has a pull at Washington, may be able to effect an advantageous deal for the animals, or maybe the government will start a national park somewhere in Al aska and put these reindeer in it as a starter. The janitor of the custom house in Atlanta, on a salary of SBOO, and an ex member of the Georgia legislature, has been fired because he would not clean cuspidors and wash windows. When they can’t get rid of a fellow legitimately Giey call on him to do things they know he will not do, and then have him dis missed for neglect of his alleged duty. 1 I There were forty deaths from con sumption in Philadelphia last week. The doctors have reached the conclusion that consumption is a contagious disease, and that it could be largely diminished, if not erradicated, by proper preventive measures. Major Calloway, formerly of Colum bus, now private secretary to the gover nor of Georgia, has announced himself as a candidate for clerk of the next house Os representatives in the Georgia legisla ture. Ev-Vice President Adlai E. Stvevenson is to be the orator at the unveiling of the monument to the signers of the Mecklenburg Declaration of Inde pendence, in Charlotte, N. C., May 20. A Baltimore man by the name of Hugg has applied for a divorce. He probably has an idea that a man with two g’s to his hugg should circulate around more freely than he can at present. The French people are exultant over the fact that the births in the republic exceeded the deaths last year by 93,700. In view of the slow decline of the popu lation of France during recent years their rejoicing is readily intelligible. Governor Hoge Tyler is said to be the first agricultural farmer governor Vir ginia has had in forty years. And yet the south is called an agricultural sec tion. Evidently our farmers are not de voting their talents to raising governors. Four hundred thousand tons of guano, costing $10,000,000, was used last year in Georgia to raise a cotton crop that brought only $25,000,000.

He Was No Cad, but Merely Demonstrat ing the Value of His Goods. The young mau who had insinu ated himself into the acquaintance of everybody in the party was a striking example of how the bitter may be mingled with the sweet. The young women pronounced him lovely, and the young men linked his name with fierce though unut tered maledictions. It was a strik ing illustration of the ease with which a man’s motives may be mis judged. His first name was Adol phus, which fact was calculated to damage his popularity among the men from the first. They were admiring the scenery. “See how that mountain rises in the distance,” exclaimed one girl. “It’s great,” said Charley Chug gins, with enthusiasm. “You wouldn’t think it’s as big as it really is to look at it from here,” remarked Dicky Dodd. “You’d think it was big enough If you had to walk to the top, as I have,” commented Billy Bliven vi vaciously. “It reminds me,” Adolphus mur mured, “that’the heights by great men reached and kept were not at tained by sudden flight, but they, while their companions slept, were toiling upward in the night.” The young men glared at him, but one of the girls whispered to the others: “Isn’t he lovely?” “Have you heard about Marne’s engagement?” one of the young women remarked, after a pause. “Yes,” replied another. “She has broken it. He has sent her back all her letters and she has returned his ring.” Billy Bliven was about to offer some opinion when Adolphus inter jected : “To the noble mind rich gifts wax poor when donors prove unkind.” The girls looked at one another ■with ecstatic approval. “Maine is a nice girl,” said one. Then, turning to Adolphus, she said, “Do you know her?” “Yes,” he answered. “I met her once and found her charming. When she had passed, it seemed like the ceasing of exquisite music.” “The trouble was that she thought he was marrying her for her mon ey,” commented the informant. “Ah,” came the response, with a deep sigh, “to whom can riches give repute or trust, content or pleasure, but the good and just?” “I honestly think that Maine feels worse about it than he does,” com mented the informant. “Yes,” said Adolphus. “Man’s love is of man's life a thing apart; ’tis woman’s whole existence.” He had the conversation all his own way after that. Some of the other young men talked about base ball and kindred topics, but most of them lagged along in gloomy silence. When the girls had left them, they got together and held an indignation meeting. “It’s an outrage,” said one. “I’ll bet he’s an unmitigated cad, ” exclaimed another, who had not ob served the approach of Adolphus. “Anything going wrong?” asked that young gentleman genially. “Yes, there is something going wrong,” replied Billy Bliven, who is noted for his directness of speech. “We don’t like the way you talk. We are plain people, and we’re tired of hearing you try to show off every time any of us opens his mouth.” “I think I have succeeded in mak ing an impression on the ladies, ” re plied Adolphus complacently. “You don’t expect us to be happy over that, do you, when the means by which you did it was to provoke comparisons to our disadvantage:” “lean understand your feelings. But you can’t blame a man for do ing business in a businesslike man ner,” he proceeded soothingly. “Do you mean to say that you make a business of this sort of thing?” “Every man who engages in com merce ought to be prepared to dem onstrate the value of his wares. That,” he went on, while reaching into his inside vest pocket, “is what I have been engaged in doing foi your benefit. I have here a little volume for which I am sole agent. It is entitled ‘Conversation Made Easy; or, One Thousand Selected Quotations Suited to All Emergen cies. ’ The type is clear, the paper good, and yet it is so compact that it may be carried without attracting attention, so as to be available for any occasion. The publishers of this work are not mercenary per sons. Realizing that the love of money is the root of all evil, they are content to do good by stealth and blush to find it fame. I am, for that reason, enabled to offer you this work, whose value is inestima ble, at the absurdly low figure of $2 a copy.”—Washington Star. A Genuine Delight. “There is one thing which grati fies a woman more than all things else. “And what is that :” “Being told that other women ar* jealous of her.”—Chicago Record. In Fiji the coinage chiefly consists of whales’ teeth, those of greater value being dyed ted. The natives exchange 20 white teeth for one red one, as the British exchange shil lings for a sovereign. An authority states that the gold in the shape of coin and ornaments hoarded by the natives of India amounts to the enormous sum cf £250,000,000. A GREAT record of cures, une quailed in medical history, proves Hood’s Sarsaparilla possesses merit un known to any other MEDICINE. NUMBER 7 HONEY AS FOOD. There Are Said to He Health and Long Life In Its Use. A pound of honey will go as far as a pound of butter, and if both ar ticles be of the best quality the hon ey will cost the less of the two. Often a prime article of extracted honey, equal to comb honey in ev ery respect except appearance, can be obtained for half the price of but ter, or less. Butter is in its best only when it is “fresh,” while hon ey, properly kept, remains indefi nitely good—no noed to hurry it out of the way for fear it may become rancid. Sugar is much used in hot drinks, as in coffee and tea. The substitu tion of a mild flavored honey in such use may be a very profitable thing tor the health. Indeed it would be better for the health if the only hot drinks were what is called in Ger many honey tea—a cup of hot wa ter with one or two tablespoonfuls of extracted honey. The attainment of great age has in some cases been attributed largely to the lifelong use of honey tea. Many people think '‘honey is hon ey,” all just alike, but this is a great mistake. Honey may be of good heavy body, what beekeepers call “well ripened” and weighing some times 12 pounds to the gallon, or it may be quite thin. It may also be granulated or candied, more solid than lard. It may be almost as col orless as water, and it may be as black as the.darkest molasses. The flavor of honey varies according to the flower from which it is obtained. It would be impossible to describe in words the flavors of the different honeys. The different flavors in honey are as distinct as the odors in flowers. Among the lighter colored honeys are white clover, linden (or basswood), sage, sweet clover, alfal fa, willow herb, etc., and among the darker are found heartsease, mag nolia (or poplar), horsemiut, buck wheat, etc. Tastes differ as to honey as in all other things. White clover is so generally preferred to buckwheat, with its very dark color and strong ly marked flavor, that buckwheat honey always rules lower in price than white clover, yet there are some who prefer buckwheat to any other honey. Somewhat fortunate ly, one generally prefers the honey to which he is most accustomed. A Californian thinks nothing equals white sage, while a Pennsylvanian thinks white clover far ahead. In these days of prevailing adul teration, when so often “things are not what they seem,” it is a com fort to know that when one buys comb honey he may know with out question he is getting the genuine article. The silly stories seen from time to time in the papers about artificial combs being filled with glucose and deftly sealed over with a hot iron have not the slightest foundation in fact. For years there has been a standing of fer by one whose financial responsi bility is unquestioned of $1,009 for a single pound of comb honey made without the intervention of bees. The offer remains untaken and will probably remain so, for the highest art of man can never compass such delicate workmanship as the skill of the bee accomplishes. With extracted honey the case is different. When you see in the gro cery a tumbler of liquid honey with a small piece of comb honey in the center, you may be pretty sure the liquid honey is not honey at all, but pure glucose. If not familiar enough with honey to detect it by taste, your only safe course is to buy of the producer direct or of some one who know s as to its source and upon whose honesty you can rely. Aside from its use in an unchanged state as a direct accompaniment of bread or biscuit, honey is used by bakers in manufacturing their choic est wafers. An advantage of using honey for anything in the line of cake is in its keeping qualities. Even if the cake should become dry, close it up in a bread can for a time, and its freshness will return. —Bee Cul ture. A Mediaeval Bill of Fare. An old chronicle preserves a bill of fare for a council dinner in the year 1592. For the first course there were capons, steamed beef and old hens, black game prepared with vin egar; second course, steamed carp served with spiced sauce, sauerkraut with mutton and pastry; third course, roast veal, birds, fried fish, cheese, fruit, nuts, chestnuts and wafers. The wine and game were furnished by the court. The host re ceived 15 farthings from each per son.—“ Stuttgart,” by Elise J. Al les, in Harper’s Magazine. Can Treat His Friends.
