The porte is the short came of the
sublime porte, which is the oftcial way
of speaking of the Turkish government
In the east judicial business is transact
ed at the city or palace gates. One story
says that the sultan of Bagdad put in
the portal of his palace a piece of sacred
black stone of Mecca, thus making his
gate the porte. Another says that Sultan
Orkhan built a gorgeous gate to his
place in Broussa. Both of these stories
are probably untrae so far as they pur
port to explain the name as applied to
the Turkish government. Just as the
British court is called the court of St.
James and the late French court that
of the Tu.'lcries, becauso thoir head
quarters were in the palaces of St.
James and the Tnileries respectively, so
the Turkish court got the u:uuo sublime
porto because its headquarters were in
the palace of Bab-i-Eumaynn, or the
Lofty Gate, in Constantinople. The
name has been attached to the building
in that cify which shelters tho lour prin
cipal departments of the government-—

John's Demise.
Mr. L., a good natural German, was
tho prosperous proprietor of a considera
ble clothing business in a country town.
He had in his employ one John S.,
whom he had advanced from cash boy
to head clerk and who had for many
years been an attache of the store. Since
his promotion John had several times
asked for a raise in his salary, and each
time his request had been granted. One
morning John again appeared at the
old merchant’s desk with another re
quest for an increase of $10 per month.
“Vy, Shan,** said Mr. Ia, “1 dink I
bays you pooty veil alretty. Vat for I
bays you any more?’* “Well,” replied
John confidently, “I am yonr principal
help here. I have worked you up to 8
large trade. I know every detail of the
business, and indeed I think yon could
not get along without me.” “Is dot
exclaimed the German. “Mein
Gott, Shon, vot rood I do euppdse you
vas to die?” “Well.” hesitated John,
“I suppose you would have to get along
without mo then. ” The old man took
several whiffs from his big pipe and
said nothing. At last he gravely re
marked, “Veil, Shon, I guess you pet-
ter gonsider yourself dead. ”—Business
