HOW SHE D«D IT.
Blrl Cashier's Mind Reading Methods o?
Making Change.
Tbe girl cashier of a Madison stroe,.
restaurant was for three weeks believed
bv one of the customers to be a lineal
descendant of Morgan le Fay and to
have some of the family traits of Heller,
the second sight magician, for she
6eemed to know by intuition or instinct
or something else w hat was the price of
the meal he had consumed and also just
the amount of money in his band when
he approached to pay. He first noticed
that when he presented a 85 cent check
she immediately laid upon the rubber
mat a dime and a nickel which she bad
been holding for change.
“How, ” this man inquired of him
self, “did she know that 15 cents would
be the correct changer There was no
earthly way for her to tell what money
I was going to offer her either. How
did she come to have the exact change
ready without a second’s delay or with
out having to go to the cash register for
it?” He could not answer to his own
satisfaction.
The next day he bought a 45 cent
meal, and she promptly laid a nickle
before him, the 5 cent piece being the
only coin she held in her hand. It was
the correct amount, as he gave her a
half dollar. He experimented several
times afterward and at last appealed to
her for information.
“Why,” the said, “didn’t yon ever
notice the tint of your check?” When I
see you coming 20 feet away, I know
by the slate colored check that yon have
eaten 20 cents’ worth. If you have a
red ticket, that warns me that you want
to pay for a two bit meal. . A blue one
means 80 cents. This yellow one is, of
course, for 40 cents. Tbe amount is
printed upon the check, but the color
is. my warning. ”
^’Yes,” said the other, somewhat re
lieved, “that seems easy. Bot stiil my
money is not of different colors. How
do you know what change to have
ready? That’s mind reading, sure.”
“Not at all. When you come with a
quarter ticket, yon will usually give me
ttie exact change or half a dollar. I
have a quarter ready for yon in my left
hand in case you give me a half. Sup
pose your ticket is a 35 cent, one; you 11
either give me tbe correct amountjor a
half dollar—or perhaps a dollar. Vvith
15 cents in one 'hand and 50 cents in
the other I’m ready for any demonstra
tion almost. ”—Chicago Record.
The Editor’s Hard Lot.
A melancholy picture of an ed
itor’s life is thus drawn by an ex
change: “There are always those
who will kick. For instance, if
vou publish jokes with whiskers
on them, some will say you ought
to be in a lunatic joint. It’ you
don’t print something to smile a f ,
you are a pessimistic fossil. If
vou spread yourself and write
a good, original article, they will
say it is stolen. If you reprint
an article, .they say you can’t
write. If you say a deserving
word for a man, you are partial ;
if you compliment the ladies, the
men are jealous; audit you don t
the verdict of the ladies is to the
effect that your paper is not fit to
use in the construction of a bus

you are afraid to remain on the

The English and Americans Are Impor
tant Factors In Paris Life.
“On and after this date,” wrot®
Napoleon I to Fonche, “see that tht
English are expelled from Paris.”
Such an edict would seem a very
large order at the present day, but it
was by no means a small one in Napo
leon’s time. What would the Paris of
today be without its English colony;
From Sir %lumnd Monsou, our embas
sador, to the pale boy who files the
English journals at Neal’s library in
the Rue Castiglione the English are
very important factors in Parisian life.
There has been an English colony in
the French capital for many centuries,
yet one might search in vain for a sim
ilar French colony in London. The
Leicester and Soho square districts, al
though owning to a large French popu
lation, possess hardly a trace of the
flavor or mien that distiugr^ hes the
quarter the English frequent fv. Paris,
and it is not a fifth the size.
To speak broadly, Paris has within
its walled borders a little London of
many thousand persons—not squalid
and impoverished, but boasting splen
did mansions, fine shops, hotels,
churches, hospitals and libraries, and
all these to such an extent that it is
difficult to believe one is not in the
British capital itself.
The inhabitants of this colony might
roughly be catalogued as follows: Re
tired people and gentlefolk who have
seen better days, those who desire to
have their children educated in the lan
guage, business people, authors, artists,
students, journalists and professional
men, those who have the best of private
reasons for living out of England and
cranks, which term includes certain in
dividuals who for some cause or other
have developed a feeling of hatred for
the land of their birth. Nearly all are
exiles of their own accord.
On Sunday the elite of the English
colony turns out to the Church of the
Embassy in the Rue d’Aguesseau. Here
for a number of years Dr. Nayes, who
was formerly a Leytonstone incumbent,
has preached, and here a collection bag
goes regularly round, and is as regular
ly returned in a condition of compara
tive emptiness. For your Englishman
of the English colony is either in a con
dition to help largely support the church
and does or else gives nothing at all.
One thing must be said about the
English and Americans who go to Paris.
They support the city. Without their
patronage there is scarcely a big shop
on the boulevards that would not close
its doors within a few months. ——London

Tax And Ballot Reform.

Stop! Women,
And consider that in addressing Mrs.
Pinkham you are confiding your private
ills to a woman—a womaq whose ex
perience in treating woman’s diseases
is greater than that of any living phy
sician, male or female.
You can talk freely to a woman when
it is revolting to relate your private
troubles to a man; besides, a man does
not understand, simply because he is a
man.
MRS. PINKHAM’S STANDING
INVITATION.
A,.
Tbs Woman In W bite.
Here is one of Nugent Robinson’s
reminiscences of Wilkie Collins: 1
was walking one day toward Hampstead
heath with Wilkie Collins. It was rain
ing. Wilkie carried bis white umbrella.
Presently we sighted near a hedge a
very pretty woman dressed in white and
accompanied by a child. Wilkie stepped
up to her and proffered his umbrella.
She promptly accepted it, and I said to
him as she disappeared, ‘That’s the last
you’ll see of it.’ He laughed und insist
ed thalPit would be all right He lived
in Www|K)le street and had given the
young woman his address. Well, time
went by until one day we two wero
again strolling, tkis time in Piccadilly.
Suddenly a hansom was baited along
side of ns so quickly that the horse was
drawn back on his haunches and tbat
game woman leaned out and nanded
Wilkie his umbrella. I discreetly walked
on. That was the original of ‘The Wo
man In White,’ and she became Wil
kie’s housekeeper. ”
Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited to promptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to a woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has ix* draw
from, it is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish if she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance.

A Famous Apple Tree.
The American Cultivator says that
the original greening apple tree is stil
standing ou the farm of Solomon
Drowne at Mount Hygeia in North
Foster, R. L The tree was a very old
one when the farm was sold in 1801.
The seller informed the purchaser that
it was a pity the old tree was going
into decay, as it produced the best fruit
of any tree in the orchard. The pur
chaser determined to see how long h«
could keep it alive, and it still survives,
after almost another century has been
added to its venerable years. But u
shows signs of final decay, and the par
ent of all the famous Rhode Island
greenings, which has set its grafts on
the orchards of almost all the woild,
will soon be but a neighborhood memo
ry It is doubtful if there is a more fa
mous apple tree to be found in all Po-
mona’s groves from end to end of thfe
Laves That Are Shortened by the Pleasures
of the Table.
In spite of the warnings and com
mands of family physicians, in spite of
the many examples of shortened lives
and lives of suffering, men will yield
to the seductiveness of the pleasures of
the table. The spectacle of the man
who overeats or who deliberately eats
improper food is common enough, but
rarely do we see as plain evidence of
the admiration for the glutton which
certain people possess as that which the
daily papers some time ago afforded. A
well known boniface died at an age
when he ought to have been enjoying
robust and vigorous health. Some slight
mention was made off his business ven
tures, of his daily life, of his reason for
living. But all this part of his exist
ence was immateiral and uninteresting
The great and praiseworthy features ol
his life seem to have been gastronomic
feats and a general ability to eat and
drink enormously. He wa3 lauded as
the prince of bon vivants, the man who
.could eat a huge dinner and shortly
thereafter swallow a brace of broiled
lobsters and a couple of Welsh rabbits,
washed down with copious libations of
vintages or distillages or.fermentages. -
During his last illness, when his phy
sicians enjoined rest in bed and a scru
pulously careful diet, we read that he
was game’ enough to dress and go out
on the hotel porch to sit, winding up
his imprudence (and incidentally his
life) with a hearty meal, in defiance of
the ihedical directions. This last piece
of bravado was apparently considered
by certain newspaper reporters as aD
achievement fit to rank with a victory
on a battlefield, and the glutton was ad
miringly mentioned as though he were
a brilliant and fearless hero, risking
his life in a worthy cause.
The newspapers were not creating a
sentiment, but merely catering to one
already formed in thus aiding gluttony.
The only conclusion we can draw is
that the epicurean philosophy still has
its cult, and that many a man’s motto
is, “Let ns eat and drink, for tomorrow
we die. ” The case is left to the moral
ist.—American Medical-Suigical Bul
letin.
