JOHN CHAPMAN, OF RAMAPO.
Needed to Kill a Lon* Felt Want Which
the Fat Man Refused to Recugnl...
It was a late boat crossing the Erie
ferry, and there were only three or four
passengers in the men's cabin. One of
them was a thin man with a long linen
duster and a tall white hat. Although
there were many vacant seats, this pas
senger, after a deliberate inspection of
the interior, went to the far comer of
the cabin and sat down in a seat next to
a fat man with a big valise.
“John Chapman, of Ramapor ex
claimed the spare man. “How are you
tonight?” The fat man 6tared a moment
at the speaker and then said:
“1 am not John Chapman, of Ramapo,
but I am quite well tonight.”
"Not John Chapman, of Ramapo?' said
the thin man. apparently much sur
prised. “Why, are you sure?'
“Well, I guess I ought to know who I
am!” exclaimed the fat man
“Certainly, sir, certainly; to he sure!'
replied the thin man. “But, mercy! how
.ould I be so much mistaken? Why, if
l had gone on with what 1 Imd on my
mind 1 would have been mortified bo.
yond measure! 1 was so sure you were
John Chapman, of Ramapo.”
"Mistakes like that frequently Imp-
.pen,” said the fat man.
“Yes, I know," said the thin man. “It
Is not the mistake I deplore so much.
The thought of the mortification I would
have suffered if I had gone on ami done
what 1 had on my mind, and then found
that you were not John Chapman, of
Ramapo, is what annoys me. Mercy I”
The fat iuan bowed.
“Yes, indeed,"continued the thin man.
“1 don’t know what made me pause on
this occasion, for [always go right up
to John and without ceremony say,
‘Loan me a dollar till tomorrow.' Now,
if 1 had done that tonight, and, after
you had loSned we the dollar, 1 Imd dis
covered that you were not Johu Chap
man, of Ramapo, just see how deadly
my mortification would have been.
Mercyl It makes rnecoid to think of itl”
The fat man assured him, with a smile,
that there would have been no occasion
whatever for mortification on that score.
ThanksI thanks!” exclaimed the thin
man. “You are very kind. Bat I don’t
know as 1 ought to accept it even until
tomorrow. If you were only John Chap
man, of Ramapo, nowl You are exceed
ingly like him in looks and manner?
The fat man bowed, but the smile was
missing. The boat was now nearing her
•lip.
If, as you say. my fears of being mor
tified beyoud measure if I Imd gone at
yon as John Chapman, of Ramapo, are
groundless,” said the thin man blandly,
‘I will put the thought aside and accept
the loan—bnt only till tomorrow! Only
till tomorrow!"
The fat man grabbed hi* valise and
harried on deck, looking back once or
twice to see it the thin man was in pur
suit. He wasn't He sat still and
watched the fat man as he disappeared
across the gangplank. Then hu arose
and mopped his forehead with a red
handkerchief.
It’s singular, nowadays, how tight
the money market is," said he.—New

Electricity in Agriculture.
One of the first to recognise the great
importance of utilixiug electricity for
farming purposes in England was the
Marquis of Salisbury, who not only nses
the water power on bis estate for light
ing by electricity, but also grinds bis
corn, cuts bis horse fodder, pimqis his
water and does a variety of other work
by means of electric motors. On many
manors which are adjacent to streams of
water the farmers are beginuiug to real-
ixe the great possibilities which are close
at hand for the more .economical work
ing of their farms and are installing
electrical plants which can be worked at
a cost unapproached by any other means.
There aro tens of thousands of portable
and other steam engines owned by agri
culturists in this country which could
be utilised in a variety of ways in con
nection with electricity. The mere sav
ing in insurance alone would in number
less esses justify a fanner in driving bis
thrashing, chaff entting and grinding
machinery by an electric motor instead
of being obliged to bring bis engine, m
now, right into bis farm buildings,—

was what a witty woman called that
period of life which all middle-aged pass
through, and during which so many
seem to think they ftust suffer—that
nature intended it so. The same lady

which will effectually defeat It—Dr.
