Tlin*<- Which Foreigners. Cumin, Itt Anirrlrit Learn lu l«* First. What are the moat expressive phrases In colloquial English? Of the dozens that Klip off English speaking tongues In the course of u day sotne must be better suited for their purpose and more characteristic of the race that originated them than others. Win ij foreigners come to this country, they catch certain expressions almost Inline dlntely ond long before they can at tempt to speak the language have made them part of their vocabulary It would seem that these phrases must be the most expressive In English and that they are peculiar to the language and "till a lung felt want." slnee for vlgners seize so eagerly upon them. Every man or woman who lands In this country Is saying, "Hurry up!" In two montha. In whatever quarter of the city one may walk. Italian or tier man or Jewish, mothers will be dls patching their offspring on errands, us lng their native speech, but closing their orders with the magic "Hurry up!” How delightfully characteristic of the nation Is the phrase! It Is lint to be woudered at that the newcomers from the slow moving old world tind that they have brought over uuthitig to equal It. "All right" rlvuls "hurry up." not because foreign tongues lack similar expressions, blit because there Is a Jol ly. hall fellow well met air about "All right" lucklug In other phrases of tlit same character. I hen. too, "All right' takes the place not only of "Hood." bill of "Ye*” and "I understand" and of a dozen other phrases which In other languages require separate expressions The ihlrd phrase, which alone shares the popularity of the first two. Is. "It's nice.” This should lie Interesting to purists who wish to restrict "idee” to Its first and original meaning of "ex act." No word of ancestry sufficiently aristocratic to please them takes the place of “idee" In Its colloquial mean ing. and foreigners clasp It with Joy. wholly Ignorant of the fact that they nre outraging the feelings of anybody by so doing. Other phrases besides “Hurry up." “All right” mid "It's idee" captivate the fancy of the newly land ed, hut fhese three relgu supreme.— New York Tribune. They Were Not Indlnns. It Is said that when the first Chinese came to California the Indians were very curious about them. A dispute arose among some of them as to wlmt country the strangers might hall from and whether or uot they were Indians' The Indians, wise us the Puritans of old, decided to apply the water test. If the accused swam, they were witches: If they drowned, they were innocent. One day a party of Indlnns met a party of Chlunmen approaching a lit tle stream. The strangers approached the bridge nnd started ncross. The In dians. too. filed ncross nnd. meeting the Chinamen In midstream, pushed two of them Into the angry, spoondug -current below. The test was conclu sive. They could uot swim. They were not Indians. How to Detect ■ Chenp Shoe. "It takes a rainy spell to show up a cheap shoe," says a shoe dealer. “It can be spotted by au observer on n rainy day. though It may have conic within an hour from the store. Watch the feet of people the next time It rains, ami you can pick out the luexpenslvc shoes. A chenp shoe always slips when -the pavements are wet. Artificial stoue pavements especially show them up. The sole of a cheap, common shoe Is >nuidc of Imitation leather, eonqioRod of •pressed pujaT, nnd water softens It nnd nmk.es the wearer slide along while walking. You can always tell a cheap .shoe m this way."- Indianapolis News The lireslral Surrender. The greatest surrender lu the annuls of warfare was that of Met* on Oct. 27. 1870. As a fortified place Metz, with Its surrounding fortt, was pructl- catty Imprc-uahle. but bad generalship permitted It to be completely surround ed tiud cut off. The surrender Included 2 field marshals, U(J generals, G.OCO offi cers of lower degree, over 400 guns, 100 mitrailleuses, nearly 00 standards and 173,000 rank and file.

All BSHSlmisi Secure convene. Europeans habitually-forget that ev try Mussulman Is more or less of n missionary—that Is, he Intensely de sires to secure converts from non-Mus- tuliuon people!!. Such converts uot only Increase his own cham-e of heav en, but they swell bis own faction, his own army, his own means of conquer ing, governing and taxing the remain der of mankind. All the emotions which Impel a Chris tian to proselyte are In a Mussulman strengthened by all the motives which Impel a political leader and all the mo tives which sway a recruiting sergeant, until prosclytlsui has become n pas sion, which wherever success scciusi practicable, and especially succcsr on a large scale, develops In the quietest Mussulman a fury of ardor which in duces him to break down every olmtu- cle, his own strongest prejudices In cluded, rather than stand for un in stant In a neophyte’s way. He wel comes him ns a son. nnd, whatever Ills own Uncage nnd whether the convert be tiegro or Chinaman or Indian or even European, he will without hesi tation or scruple give his own child In marriage and admit him fully, frankly and finally Into the most exclusive so ciety In the world.—Townsend's "Ilrowu Man." 1 A' IS .1■*?.:*■ Loaded With Pat. In the good old days when we were greatly pestered by a neighbor’s sow, or mule, or bull, or dog. Invading our premises nnd taking unwarranted lib ertles we loaded the old shotgun with powder and fat meat and, after serving due notice upon said neighbor and said notice being Ignored, set out to uphold the first law of nature, self defense. The amount of execution that can be done by a wnd of fnt meat on top of n good charge of powder Is amazing Wherever It strikes hnlr nnd hide dis appear. It seldom If ever kills, but leaves scars that time docs uot obliter ate. The fnt being salty, causes excru ciating pain, which lingers long In memory, und the stricken animal does not offend ugalu. A tallow candle can he shot through n two Inch oak board without Injury to tlie candle. In like manner a tallow bullet If driven by a sufficient charge of powder would penetrate n man’s body and grease him so well Internally that he would not care to go dueling again A glancing shot would plow ugly fur rows In the skin.—New York Tress. Two Unities. Porfirlo Diaz gained national promi nence nnd won Ills spurs at the battle of Puebla, where the Liberal forces made u gallant but Ineffectual stand against the French who had Invaded Mexico for the purpose of erecting a throne for Maximilian. Notwithstand ing the fnct that the Mexican forces were defopted, their defense ugnlust superior numbers was so gallant that the anniversary of the battle of the 5th of May became a national holiday tn -Mexico. A brusque American once asked the president, “Why do you Mexicans cele brate a defeat when you know that the French finally took Puebla?" President Diaz, with a twinkle In Ills eye, replied, "Perhaps we have Imitated the Americans even to the extent of celebrating our defeats, for I have been told that the British defeated the col onists at Bunker Hill, and yet you built a monument to commemorate the event" Scotch Economy. A Scottish noble lord, famed among his friends for his saving, or. ns he would have put It himself. Ills careful propensities, went out one day shooting in his broad moors, accompanied only by his keeper. After an afternoon's hard work he sat down to rest and, ruefully contemplating his bag. observ ed thoughtfully, “And to think that each brace has cost me. first and last, at least 15 shillings. Dounld!” “Eh, eh!" answered Donald consol ingly. “Then It’s « mnircy yere hard ship missed the many ye did today, for It’s a nice bit ye’ve saved, I'm think ing."—Loudon Sketch.
