IMPRESSES THE OFFICE BOY;
Chicagoan Enthusiastic Over Scheme
Which He Claims Is Great Sue*
cess in New York.
Gterald Jones came here from Chi
cago. Consequently there are a num
ber of things about New York which
ke compares with the same things in
Chicago—much to the disadvantage
of New York. One that, chiefly irri
tates him is the office boy habit here,
the Cincinnati Times-Star’s New York
correspondent writes. Gerald Jones
enters the office of a friend of his. A
small, cynical boy meets him at the
mahogany rail. Mr. Jones declares
that he wishes to see his old college
gal. P. Norval Smith. The small boy
demands a card, and hands him a
blank form. ’‘Write here what you
to see him about.” says the
■mall boy.
Mr. Jones protests. What he wants
to see Smith about is something that
be does not propose to confide to any
■mall boy in the world —especially to
a small boy toward whom he feels a
sentiment perilously approaching hate.
He waves his hand. He directs the
■mall boy in a lordly way to take his
name and be quick about it, and never
mind the card. “Just say Jerry Jones
Ss here,” he says to the small boy.
The small boy puts back the hunk
•f gum and sits down on his slippery
little bench and indicates with an air
of finality that there will be nothing
doing until he gets the card he asked
for and the full history of Mr. Jones*
■ecent past. If Mr. Jones gets in to
see P. Norval Smith it is only by as
senting to the terms made by the
small boy. Therefore, Mr. Jones has
bad a fresh set of cards printed for
nse upon the office boys of his friends.
They bear the most awe inspiring
names—Jim Jeffries, for example, and
James J. Corbett and Packey McFar
land and Cut Throat Jenkins, the ter
ror of the gulch. He observes that
the small New York boy is not well
posted upon the life and crimes of
Bloody Hand Ben, the scourge of the
Sierras, but every one of them knows
all about the men of the ring. “And
tell that old fool Smith.” he bellows,
1n the character of Tom Sharkey,
“that if he doesn’t come out here I’ll
beat him to death.”
Gerald Jones is perfectly happy. Ho
knows how to circumvent the office
boy.
WORTHY OF GREAT MONARCH
King of Sardinia’s Tactful Manner of
Concealing Kindness Done to
Impoverished Follower.
The King of Sardinia, Charles Al
bert, was very kind and obliging to
the French royalists who were at
Turin. The Duke of F——. with whom
he was connected, had an employment
■bout the court —he had been severely
wounded, and Iqst a leg in the affair
of the Three Days. The king heard
that the duke was anxious to visit the
king and royal family at Prague, but
that his finances were not favorable to
so long a journey. His majesty, there
fore, thought, of an expedient which
would enable the duke to gratify his
loyalty, without his feelings being
wounded. ’• ’
"Duke,” he said, ‘‘would you do me
the favor to choose some horses for
me in Bohemia; and as your best way
will be through Prague, of course, you
will pay respects to the royal family
there ”
As the journey was on the king’s
•ervice. the duke could feel no reluct
ance about having his expenses paid.
Th© Overwrought Nerve*.
Fresh air will string up any group of
nerves not hopelessly demoralised.
When you feel that “flying to pieces”
Inclination overtaking you, jerk your*
■elf to order with the check rein of
determination and then, if you cannot
■again self-control, stop anything on
earth you may be doing and go out of
doors. If you cannot leave the home,
Man out of a window, or step for a lit*
die while on a porch. You will not
lose any time —you will, in fact, gain
time by Increasing efficiency in what
ever you may be doing. Sleep also is
■ great restorer of nerves to a normal
tone, and sleeping with all windows
epen secures for us two nerve cures
at the same time. In foods, raw on
ions, carrots, lettuce and celery, with
plenty of olive oil, are excellent nerve
foods, all valuable as aids in the good
work, but the chief remedy is strong
will and the compelling of your body
to obey your mind.
Man and the Mammoth.
The skeleton of a mammoth discov
ered in the department of Pas de Ca
lais, France, measures 49% feet in
length. The head is well preserved,
with finely enameled molars of the
true Siberian type, thus furnishing one
more proof that the whole country was
once a land of ice and snow. At a din
ner given recently on a sand-bar in the
Danube an attempt was made to con
vey an idea of the food consumed by
man in the time of the mammoth. Cab
bage soup cooked over hot stones,
horse ham, roast pork with boiled
millet, and turnips cooked in hot ashes
composed the bill of fare. The dessert
was dried pears and honey.—Harper’s
Weekly.
Exaggerated Expectation*.
“I’m afraid,” said Bronco Bob, “that
Flute Pete’s ideas of the game is get
in* kind o* warped.”
“What’s the trouble?”
“Every time he picks up a hand an’
finds less than three aces he thinks it
wasn't a square deal.”
