And all. who are engaged in man off. tares are cod sum era ot their product? instead of being rival corsmueies, it creasing t he supply and diminish - ! ? the home demand, Judge Divid Davis was once Ilia king a depos t at a Washington .hank, and stood counting a large pile .of money at a desk. A w ell-dressed • ■young man stepped up and, with a j j rhowaoji smile, said. “Judge, you dropped bill.” Sure enough i •have a there lay a crisp, genome $2 bill at the depositor’s feet. “Thank y >u,” blandly answered the Judge, placing his ponderous right hoot over the bill ] Oil the floor, and calmly resuming 1 his counting. The sharper, taken j hack hy tfJie .^coolness ot the pro- ; ceeding, disappeared, and the Judge ‘ was $2 ahead by the transaction. a There is something singular about# cinder. A boy ill stick his bead * a w lOiitiOf a car window and ride a hun- j dred miles with cinders flying all j around his head, and he will never ; get a cinder in his eye, while a quiet: lady, with a vail on, in a seat remote from an open window, will have a cinder in her haifvlosed eye before she has gone a mile, and .-he is all broke up. It beats all what u difference there is in people about cinders. A homely woman might get a. cinder tin his.r eye, and nobody would tpay afjf Attention to her any mere than tell her not to rub her eye ! veiy in.ich, but let a handsome young 'woman catch a cinder in one ot her beaiuifnl eyes, ar.d the fhsfc tear th 1 comes to the eye softens the heart of every man in the car, andbtncy all want to probe for it and offer some assistance.
