know anything about restaurant hash,
especially the fellow who was eating it,
but he wasn’t satisfied.

SPEAKING TO THE DEAF.
A Mistake Is Often Made In Trying to
Enunciate Very Plainly.
Many people, and I am sorry to say
some teachers of tho deaf, fail to realize
_in clearly'visible practice at least—that speech is not
as to the eye as it is audi
bio to the ear, and think that by speak
&»’««»•« ing slowly, word by word, aud opening
«* **- «*■*• •-»
will render the task of the speech reader
easier. As a matter of fact they render
it all the more difficult. A child in
school may learn to understand a teach¬
er who mouths his words in this man¬
ner, but this ability is of no value to
him when he leaves school. Indeed per¬
fectly natural, deliberate speeoh is easier
to understand than the exaggerated
form of artioulation which people are
apt to use the moment they know they
are talking to a totally deaf person.
, People who depend entirely upon
their speeoh reading for understanding
others have requested me, when intro¬
ducing them to strangers, not to say
that they were deaf, because they find
it easier to read the lips when the per¬
son speaking is not aware that he is be¬
fog understood in that way. I have in
my acquaintance a young man educated
wholly by this method who travels a
great deal and picks up acquaintances
on the steamer or on the train just as
people do who possess all their faculties.
1 have in mind also a congenitally
deaf girl of 14 who is not considered
unusually bright, yet whose speech is
clearly intelligible to strangers after
the first ten minutes, who is intelligent
on the topios of the day, and whose
larger aud more conversational reper¬
tory is inuoh larger and more entertain¬
ing than that of many young ladies of
20 and over that I have met in metro¬
politan society.—John Dutton Wright
in Century.
The Captain Told Him.
An Englishman, tonring through
America, went on board a steamer late
one night aud on the following morning,
after walking on deck aud looking
around him, he stepped up to the cap¬
tain aud asked, "I beg your pardou, but
would you kindly tell me what lake
I’m on?”
"The Lake Huron, ” replied the cap¬
tain and turned away.
The Englishman looked puzzled for a
moment, and then, following the cap¬
tain, began again, “I beg your pardon,
you said”—
“It’s the Lake Huron, ” roared the
captain, thinking the man was deaf.
"Yes, I know,” persisted the passen¬
ger, "but what’s the name of the lake
that I’m on?”
"The Lake Huron!” shouted the cap¬
tain, incensed at what be thought gross
stupidity, and he turned away to relieve
himself by railing at one of the hands.
The Englishman looked more puzzled
than ever.
“The lake you’re on is the lake you’re
on. Of course it is. The lake I’sa on
can’t help being the lake I’m on. What
impertinence! Let me look in my guide¬
book. Perhaps that will tell me. ”
It did tell him, and then the hnmor
of the situation suddenly dawned upon
him.—London Tit-Bits.
A Strange Norsery.
On the slopes of tbe Himalayas the

women a curious
of disposing of their babies and keeping
them quiet while they are engaged at
work in the fields during the greater
part of the day. Before the mothers set

mg nothing but tbc.r little faces ex
posed. Then the babies are taken and
laid under a ledge of rock from which
water is falling, and by means of a
bamboo the water is made to drip gen
tly on each baby’s forehead. The effect
or the dripping water is most soothing,
and soon the little ones are all asleep
and remain motionless till taken up by
their mothers on their return from their
work, when they are carried off to be
unwrapped, dried and fed.
The Wonderful Marching Ant.
Paul Dn Ghaillu tells of the doings
of a queer African species of ant, which
tbe natives call the basbikouay, which
marches through the forests in a regular
line. This line usually averages about
two inches in breadth end is often «av-
oral miles long, with not a break in the
column. "All along the line,’’ says the
groat traveler, "large and fierce looking
ants act as officers, keeping the singular
army in order.”
In the south of France the handing
of n sweet pea by a young lady to a
young gentleman is a polite way of
stating that she is tired of his company.

THE DOCTOR’S STORY.
In Experience That Followed a Call at
Night.
Four or five physicians were talking
op town the other evening at the homo
Df one, and tho conversation later turned
to shop. One of them had recently
moved his office down town, and there
was some discussion as to the advisabil¬
ity of separating house nnd office.
"Well,” said tho separatist, "I can’t

years ago, when I began practice, I lived
in Virginia, and for a year or two I
ilept in my office. Then I married, and
my wife owned a nice house, and I went
to it to live. It sat back from the streot
about BO feet, and wo decided that it
would be much nicer if wo had my office
out on the street in tho far corner of the
lot. Ouly 60 feet away, you will ob¬
serve, but still it was enough. In order
to see such callers ns came during tbo

tube connecting the front door of the
offioe with my bedroom. You see, I did
not wart a patient to escape under any
circumstances.
*• Well, everything went nicely enough
for three years or so, when one night a
ring came to my bell. It was then about
2 o’clock in the morning, and the ring
was a hot one. I asked who it was, and
the answer cume from a friend of mine
to the effect that ho was a mighty sick
man and wanted to see me at once. I
told him to como around to tho Jiouso
and I would meet him at the door and
take care of him. Then I got np, and,
putting on my dressing gown nnd slip¬
pers, I proceeded to the front door. But
there waB no one there and no one in
sight on tho way between the gato and
the house.
"That was odd, and I went back and
called through the tube to know What
was wrong. I received no answer, and,
being quite unable to account for it, I

HE LOST A. FORTUNE.
Or, ‘There Are Moments When One Wants
to Be Alone.”
A middle sized man, with a gray
mustache and a red tie hitched upon
his collar, walked thrqagh the restau¬
rant, nodding to acquamfaucea here aud
there. As bo stopped at the cashier’s
desk a man who was seated at a table
noticed him, and, leaning across to his
vis-a-vis, said, "Captain S--, United
States postul inspector and grand official
catcher of green goods men. ”
"Yes?” with interest from the mail
across the table.
“Sure. I have always regarded him
with a peculiar affection. He came very
near making me a rich man once—in
fact, almost made a wealthy citizen of
me—so well to do that I would never
have had to work again. ”
"How was that?” with a shade of
incredulity.
"This way: About a year ago the
captain superintended a grand haul of
green goods men. The firm which ho
raided was the largest, perhaps, in the
country and had unlimited capital.
They had packages of good money to
catch suckers with, aud this money,
amounting to over $150,000, was cap¬
tured and placed in a big satchel by the
captain. 1 called on him for details of
the story that afternoon. He was alone
in the office. There were three of us—
the captain, myself and tho satchel. He
opened the satchel and showed me
wealth beyond my wildest dreams. I
hated to leave the beautiful vision.”
And the narrator sighed deeply.
"Well,” said his friend, “I don’t soe
how that was anything like making you
a rich man.”
“Yon don’t? Well, let me tell yon
this: If the captain had turned his back
for jnst six seconds I would have been
a rich man immediately. But he never
turned, and I had to go away again as
poor as when I came.”
And with another bitter, heartrending
sigh be watched tho inspector stroll out
into the street. —Chicago News.

A FIGHT WITH A LYNX.
Jim Berry Had a Desperate Struggle With
a Savage Bobcat.
The ugliest appearing animal that
ever walked a log, killed a rabbit or
fought a trap is tho lynx, which is just
as ugly as it looks ten months in the
year and Bomewhat uglier during the
other two. Not only will the lynx fight*
anything that walks tho woods, bnt it
will also tackle a visitor from the clear¬
ings, be he man or dog or half grown
calf, if the occasion offers.
Jim Berry was hunting up in Maine,
about 40 miles north of Greenville,
when ho and his friend suddenly came
upon the carcass of a caribou which a
bear was eating. The boar made itself
scarce, rnnch to Jim’s regret, as be
wanted to kill the bear. Without say¬
ing anything to his friend ho left camp
the next day aud started for tho carcass,
intending to watch it, in tho hope that
the bear would return. He waited and
watched until about 8 o’clock in the
afternoon, when, he began to think of
returning to camp. A soft footfall baot
in the woods—the crafty step of somo
wild animal—just then sounded in his
ears. Pretty soon the bear was chewing
tho caribou meat, aud Jim could see it
plainly. He leveled his buckshot gun
and pulled the trigger, when the wab¬
bling muzzle was pointed in what he
thought was the right direction. The
beast went down, and Jim started for it.
Then he stopped, with hi3 mouth open.
Tho boast had leaped to Tiis feet and
jumped sideways, with its back up.
Jim know the yell, and he also recog¬
nized the humped back. It was a wound¬
ed lynx spoiling for a fight. Not having
timo to level his gun to shoot, th'e man
clubbed it, and tho blow stunned tbo
cat a little, but tho beast got in a rake
on the man’s log and tore his trousers
aud hide too. Another frantic swoop of
the gnu barrel laid the beast flat, aud
then a revolver bullet killed the animal.
The buckshot had torn tho top of the
lynx’s head—enough to make it angry.

Proved Ilia Love.
They were two working girls, and
they happened to meet the other day at
tho restaurant where they eat lunchoou.
Tho brunette ordered baked beans and
lemonade, aud the blond selected fruit
cake and coffeo. "Tomorrow is pay day,
you know,” she said in reply to the
inquiring look of the other.
"Oh! Well, have you heard the news
about Mary? She’s resigned. ”
"I know,’’said the blond. "I was in
hopes I’d be the first to tell you. She’s
going to be married. ”
"Yes; in a lovely blue silk. I forget
the name of the man she’s going to
marry. He isu’t very good looking, they
say, but Mary says he’s intellectual.
She says”—
"Oh, pshaw! You can’t tell from
Mary.”
"No; but Sadie’s seen his photo¬
graph, and she says ho wears glasses.”
“Does he? Well, Mary’s lucky, if she
is redheaded. Why, ho would just do
anything in the world for that girl.”
"Humph!” said the brunette. “That’s
the way she talks now, but you can’t
tell a thing about it until after they’re
married. ”
"You can tell it easy enough in this
case. He’s proved it already,” said the
blond warmly.
"Said he’d die fer her, I suppose,”
returned tbo brunette scornfully. “Lots
of ’em talk that way before they have
to pay the butcher.”
"This isn’t talk anyhow. He’sproved
his love, I tell you.”
"How? Did ho save her life, or tell
her that her hair is golden?”
"Neither. He sold his bicycle to buy
her On engagement ring.”—Ghioago

THE CHECK SYSTEM.
An English Visitor Tells the People About
tho American Way.
The American constitution has been
called a system of checks. So in Ameri¬
can life. When yon want to travel, you
give your baggage to the porter of your
hotel, and he gives you a check in re¬
turn. At tin station you reclaim it
with the check and pass it in at a coun¬
ter and receive another check. As you
approach your destination another func¬
tionary comes along the train, takes
your check and gives you another check
in Mb place. He fishes out your baggage
and conveys it to your hotel—for a con¬
sideration. You have left your third
and last check at the office of ’the hotel
when you enter it, aud thence it is de¬
livered up on receipt of the baggage.
At first you bless this arrangement as
the salvation of the traveler. After a
few weeks of it the tyranny of the check
becomes so galling that you begin to
long for the fine old English method of
dumping down yonr goods in front of a
porter aud leaving them to find the way
themselves. You would even hail it as
a personal triumph if some of your bag¬
gage would get lost. But it never does.
Sometimes it arrives late, but it always
Yet it seldom arrives in the shape in
which it started, if that is any consola¬
tion. They who have to do with bag¬
gage see to that. You very soon discover
why Americans carry their goods in
ironclad trunks, and why it is madness
for anybody to do anything else. I
started out, like an idiot, with a new
leather portmauteau. They ripped the

They punched it aud kicked and dauced
on it. In softer hours, when literary
inspiration came, they wrote on it. My
portmanteau today is an opitovne of the
political sentiment of the United States
from New York to San Franoisco. As
a historical document it is beyond
price, arid I am contemplating the gift
of it to the library of congress at Wash¬
ington. As a p^uteau it has both
feet in the grave. cliccks
Tho system of is not confined
to travelers’ luggage. The oouductor of
the train passes carelessly to and fro
asking for your ticket and giving you a
check in return, or asking for your
check aud returning your ticket. If yon
hand your stick to a boy in a hotel
while you write your name in the reg¬
ister, he dashes off to stow it away in
somo secret place and returns triumphant
with a check. In the very hotel bar,
when yoii buy sevenpeuce ha’porth of
whisky you get a check aud walk two
yards across tho bar to pay at a desk.
But the apotheosis of the check is at
Niagara. When yon go down to the
Cave of the Winds, you strip off all
your clothes and leave thorn, as well os
your valuables, in u tin box with the
attendant. Then you go down to battle
with the cataract attired only in a suit
of pyjamas, a suit of oilskins aud a
chock lashed around your neck and ris¬
ing and fulling with the beating of
your beart. No wonder the American
speaks of death as “handing in his
checks.” It is ouly by death that he can
rid himself of them.—Loudon Mail.
