I It takes a clever man to find a good
word to say on every wqasion. It is said
of Thomas Bailey Aldrich that he once
received a letter from his friend. Pro
fessor Edward S. Morse, and found the
handwriting wholly illegible. Mr. Al
drich was not at a loss for an answer.
In due time »there came to Mr. Morse
the following reply:

to receive a letter from you the other

A Very Pradent Yoang Maa.
Os William and John Scott, after
ward Lord Stowell and Lord Elton,
Lord John Russell used to tell this
story: When they were young men at
th* tar, having had 4 a stroke at proton
siouak luck, they determined to cele
brate the occasion by having a dinner
at the tavern and going to the play.
When.it was time to call for the reck

He and his brother searched for it in
vain and came to thb conclusion that it

" "we must give up fhe’jlay.”
“Stop a b|L” said John. “I know a
trick worth two of that, ” and he called
a waitress. SOtW
“Betty,” said he, "we’ve dropped 2
guineas. See if you can find them. ”
Betty went down, On her hands and
knees and found, the guinea, which had
rolled under the fender.
“That’s a very good girl, Betty,”
said John Scots, pocketing the coin,
“and When you find the other you can
keep it for your troufile. ’’ And the pru
dent brothers went with light hearts to
the play and so eventually to the bench

Fish In Icebound Waters.
Fish do not breathe air, but the life
supporting constituent of air—oxygen
gas—which is soluble in water to the
extent of three voluqjes in ibo at ordi
nary temperatures and fbur in 100 at I
freezing point.
The water containing the dissolved
oxygen is made to pass over the gills,
where it is separated from the blood
only by a very thin membrane, through
which the gas is able to pass.
Fish in icebound rivers have to de
pend entirely upon this store of oxygen
for their respiration, and if it becomes
exhausted they are suffocated, just as
we shoved. Ifo ii deprived of oxygen.
It rafely happens, however, that any
considerable area of water is entirely
covered with ice, especially in the case
of rivers. Holes and cracks are almost
sure to occur here and there, by which
the oxygen of the air can reach the wa
ter and become dissolved in it During
a long frost fish may always be found
congregated beneath air holes in large
numbers. They are there to breathe.—
Exchange.
Early Uae of Tobacco.
■ I have heard my grandfather say that
one pipe was handed from man to man
round about the table. They had first
silver pipes ; the ordinary sort made use
of a walnut shell and a Straw. Tobacco
was sold then for its weight in silver.
I have heard some of our old yeomen
neighbors say that when they went to
Malmesbury or Chippenham market
they culled out their biggest shillings
to lay in the scales against the tobacco.
Sir W. R., standing in a stand at Sir
Robert Poyntz’s park at Acton, took a
pipe of tobacco, which made the ladies
quit it until he had done.—“ Brief Lines
Set Down by John Aubrey,” 1669-96.
The Philosophical Tailor.
How often have I taken away a gar
ment for a fault which did not exist
and which I of course never intended to
rectify. How often have I taken back
the same garment without it ever hav
ing been unfolded and been commended
for the alteration which had not been
made, and then been reprehended for
not having done What was right at first.
A man to be a good tailor should be
either a philosopher qr a mean, cring
ing slave, whose feelings had never
been excited to the pitch of manhood.

HE SAVED THE MILK,
ft Reqalired Ctoala* to Da It, bat Ha Was
Equal ta tha Oocoblob.
“Talking about oows,” said Andy
Henderson, “I really think that I had
one of th® most peculiar experiences
with ths animals in question that ever
befell a citizen of west Texas It was
soon after I went to El Paso, some ten
years ago, and before I had got familiar
with the vagaries of the El Paso cli
mate.
“I had settled on a very pretty ranch
some miles out of the progressive fron
tier city and was doing nicely until I
deaided to go into the butter business.
I sent east for a dozen fine Jersey oows
and began operations. Well, the cows
Eon, and I hustled the butter busi
trom the jump. Things progressed
y for a month, when the weather
grew very warm and the atmosphere
very dry. The Rio Grande dwindled
until a roach could have waded across.
Every bit of moisture disappeared, but
this did not affect me, because I had a
fine artesian well on the ranch and
plenty of water. I observed, however,
that my cows were losing milk day by
day, until at last they were perfectly
dry. I was astounded, for they had
plenty of feed and lots of water from
the well. I couldn’t understand it and
determined to investigate.*
“I got up an hour before daylight and
examined the cows, and, to my aston
ishment, I found the udders of the oows
heavy with milk. I did not milk the
the animals, but simply watched and
waited developments. Day dawned and
the cows lazily meandered into the pas
ture, and I followed. The sun came up,
and with the sun came the terrible dryz
ness, but it didn’t feaze me in the least.
What knocked me out was the sight of
my cows’ udders. They were growing
smaller and smaller as I looked until
they were as flaccid as a punctured tire.
Then I tumbled. The dryness of the at
mosphere simply evaporated the milk
through the walls of the udder.
“What did Ido? Why, 1 varnished
the milking apparatus of the beasts and
the milk couldn’t ooze through the
flesh. That stopped it. ” —New Orleans

A SENSE OF HUMOR.
It !• a Precious Gift and Helps to Light
en Life’s Way.
I regard a sense of humor as one of
the most precious gifts that can be
< vouchsafed to a human being. He is not
necessarily a better man for having it,
but he is a happier one. It renders him
indifferent to good or bad fortune. It
enables him to enjoy his own disoomfl-
AWe- »
Blessed with this sense he is never
unduly elated or cast down. No one
l can ruffle his temper. No abuse disturbs
his equanimity. Bores do not bore him.
Humbugs do not humbug him. Solemn
airs do not impose on him. Sentimental
gush does not influence him. The follies
of the moment have no hold on him.
Titles and decorations are but childish
baubles in his eyes. Prejudice does not
warp his judgment He is never in con
ceit or out of conceit with himself. He
abhors all dogmatism. The world is a
stage on which actors strut and fret for
his edification and amusement, and he
pursues the even current of his way, in
vulnerable, doing what is right and
proper according to his lights, but ut
terly indifferent whether what he does
finds approval or disapproval from oth
ers.
If Hamlet had had any sense of hu
mor, he would not have.been a nuisance
to himself and to all surrounding him.
—London Truth.
Spending Money.
It is an excellent thing to give chil
dren as soon as they arrive at about 12
years, or even before, a little allowance
for spending money and an account
book. Show them how to. keep an ac
count of small expenditures and make
it a condition that they do so if they
wish to receive their allowance. There
is no instruction more necessary to chil
dren than instruction in the wise man
agement of money. Children should be
taught early what true economy is and
to exercise their judgment—not their
fancy—in making purchases. A little
instruction now, and experience if need
be, of the genuine discomforts of extrav
agance may save them from much suf
fering in after years. New York

He Had Changed.
A widow once called upon an artist
and asked him to paint a portrait of her
husband. “When can he sit?” inquired
the artist “He can’t sit at all,” said
the widow, “he’s dead.” “Then you
will have to furnish me with his photo
graph,” said the artist “He never had
his picture taken,” said the widow.
Nevertheless the artist undertook the
job, and when he had finished the work
he asked the widow to come and see it
“It’s a fine picture,” said she, “and
you’ll please send it to my home—but
how the old man has changed.” -Bos

They were giving “She Stoops to

A penniless individual, anxious to see

he went in without paying, he replied:
“By what right I lam Oliver Gold

EATING IN GERMANY.
THE SARCASMS OF A VICTIM WHO
SURVIVED ITS CHARMS. j
He Kick* All the Way Dowa tha HIM at
Few la Partteelariy laritated Over
a Dteh e« ftafaiii Hone Kodlsh Served
With Froeau Whipped Cream.
When you have examined the con
stitution of the German cuisine, you
are tempted to grow loquacious. You
are conscious of having discovered that
the psychology of a nation cannot be
constructed upon a mere analysis of its •
made dishes. Your estimate of Brillat-
Savarin sinks. * He could not tell you
what you are, even from all the menu.,
of your lifetime, Freiligrath’a philo
sophic conclusion that “man Is What
he eats” you straightway qualify as
true only when referring to cannibal- I
ism. And you will aver that only in
the case of paleolithic man oan you I
construct a man from the crumbs that I
fall from his dinner tabla. And this
you will want to prove, and oouae
quently will grow talkative with pre
senting of much evidence.
And yet, in your sane moments, you
will have a sneaking affection for the
statement that a German is a German
because be eats what be eats. As a gen
eral rule he may be said to eat five I
times a day. But his hunger is con
stantly being stilled.
He starts early in the day with a cup I
of case an lait and a small buttered I
This keeps hips' going till 11 I
o’clock, when he demolishes a slice of
buttered rye bread spread with slices I
jafftard boiled egg, raw chopped beef or
cheese. This he washes down with a
glass of ale, thus stilling his inner man I
till dinner time. Dinner takes place to
ward 1 o’clock and consists of soup
(generally nourishing), a plate of meat, I
with potatoes and fruit (cranberries, I
prunes <w aprioots), occasionally cheese, I
seldom sweets, rarely a green vegetable.
Three hours later coffee is taken,
served with a piece of cake or thick
bread and butter. This is the hour pre- I«
clous to the gossip and the busybody, I
the time for spreading scandal. Toward I
8 o’clock the appetite again asserts
itself. The hour of the übiquitous sau
sages has arrived. Their name is legion,
and they share the honors with slices
of ham, smoked goose breast, pieoes of
raw pickled herring, and in summer
hard boiled eggs and potato salad.
Such is the German method of spread
ing the meals over the day. Os course
there are exceptions. Many families
have two ample meals a day, but the
bulk of the population eats mostly but
tered bread and snacks. In justice to I
Germany one must say that tha fare in
many a home will compare favorably
with that tA many an American family. I
In the German restawStot the ouisine
is on the whole monotonous and the
food singularly insipid. All meats seem
to have the same flavor, an are served
with the same heavy, viscous sauces,
and invariably escorted with the same
soaplike potatoes. Stodginess and heavi
ness are the great blots on the German I
fare. The element of variety, too, seems
considered superfluous.
In the concrete the subject is almost
too painful to face, the difficulty being
to steer dear of exclamations denoting
positive offensiveness. Some of the
kickshaws which figure regularly upon
the German table are reputed to be most
sustaining. They certainly are intense
ly and ostentatiously wonder inspiring.
oOne preparation is everywhere met
with under the name (more or lees pho
netically spelled) of beefsteak ala tar
tare. Its basis is raw chopped beef; |
this, spread out into a pat of elliptical
shape, is crowned with the raw yolk of
an egg, raw finely chopped onion is
sprinkled over it, a garniture of gbet- I
Irins is added, and the whole is eaten I
with much gusto and no worse conae- I
quences than a durable thirst.
In many of the dishes you discover I
all the humor, feeling and imagination
of a Wagnerian composition. You find I
the resolute desire to build up harmony
upon discord. Os this nature may be
considered the traditional menu of New I
Year’s eve, carp, pancake and punch. I
These three, brought into immediate I
juxtaposition and consumed in plethoric
quantities, generally have the desired I
effect—that of inducing a hysterical I
good humor.
For stodginess nothing beats the fa
vorite dish, panache. It consists of I
pickled pork, sour cabbage and a puree
of split peas boiled down to the con
sistency of stiff dough. Experiments on
this mass produce deplorable capers and
cause one to grunt mournl ’ully. A va
riety of this diet is fount I in Berlin.
You substitute boiled balls of dough
and indifferent prunes for the peas and
cabbage, and yon have the dish popu- {
larly termed “the Silesian kingdom of
heaven.” Oold eels, imbedded in a
translucid, glutinous substance, figure
in all workmen’s taverns, while roast
goose is de rigueur for all • ilenmities.
A dainty which we have recently
met with in Berlin recalled Darwin’s
remark that “hardly any ea periment is
so absurd as not to be wort h trying. ”
It consisted of finely powdered horse
radish served up with frozei i whipped
cream.
One may sum op one’s judgment by
saying of German cookings wihat the art
sritiosaid rtt nature, “It hue infinite
potentialities.” Not the least of there
is its ambition to discover victims that
survive its charms only in the form
that the walls of Jericho survived the
trumpet hlsst of Joshua. —LLppinoott’s
