Iriiat ii < . Conductor Says.
The other dr.v, after the conductor
of a (Jlark r root able car had passed
and repa.-Hi'd i seat several times
without i ■•ring to collect my fare, 1
stopped liiin and handed over u nickel.
A minute later I went to the rear plat¬
form to cijjr v a cigar and found tho
conduct i s’.a there alone.
“Jf a conductor hereafter neglects to
collijct your (are don’t oiler it to him,”
lie said.
“Why not?”
“Because ti conductor himself
would prefer not to receive it under
such circumstances.”
“But I expect to pay for my ride.”
“Certainly, and I am expected to see
that you do it. But suppose I overlook
you. Ti e company loses five cents,
but 1 am rospomible for the loss, not
you. You do your whole duty when
you pay what is demanded of you.
Now look at my side of the ease. What
would be the result if there happened
to be a spotter on tho car? If I over¬
looked a fare the chances are fully even
that the spotter would not notice the
omission But when a passenger rushes
up to urn and pays lus fare it is proof
positive that l haven't done my duty.
“Everybody notices the movement,
and tho spotter swoops down upon me.
See? Don’t do it again. Save your
nickel. Don’t imagine the conductor
will lie awake nights if he misses a faro
now aud then, or that the poor but de¬
serving railway company cannot worry
along all right without your nickel. If
you save your money you may save a
conductor s job at the same time.”—

Minnesota is tin Pine Tree state. For¬
ests as well i s other tilings have
changed s: .<*.> the days when the king's
surveyors, lug through the forests of
Maine, could put the broad arrow of
royal ownership upon some of the
noblest and stateliest pines to be found
on earth.
Here were found the noblest trees
for the masts oi that invincible British
navy which did such glorious deeds
under Nelson; and here, too, was found
pine enough to keep running the saw¬
mills that supported so many of the
settlers in Maine. This was once the
Pine Tree state But the census bulle¬
tin shows that today there are really
but three pine Uve states, and that
Maine is not one of them. They are

Drying llnmiiiu, f..r llarkel.
A new industry is gaining headway
in the tropics, by which bananas are
dried for sldpmont. The fruit in dry¬
ing loses one-tivrd of its weight, and
when dried readily sells at sixteen cents
a pound. The flri.ni fruit can be trans¬
ported over bed roads without injury,
and it retains its flavor. The cost of
producing b.mauas is very little, as a
buncli weighing fifty pounds requires
as a total outlay f< r clearing, purchase
of land, and every other expense neces
B:4ry % even to boxing for the market,
the small Mini f fifty three cents—the
result of au actual test in the island of
Trinidad. When one considers that
the productiveness of the banana is
forty two times that of the potato and
1H1 times that of wheat, and that when
one** planted it needs little care, the
profits of the iudustry will be readily

U ii.il Kind of a Store VT»» It?
f1» walked into a Kearney street dry
goods .store and asked for a pair of
over.il is. it was evident that he had
not been long in town, and the clerks
eyed hiru with amusement depicted
plainly od each face.
“Vorv sorry, my friend,” explained
the polite gentleman behind the coun
ter. this is a dry goods store and
we have no overalls in stock.’
••Amt. eh? Well, just give rne three
of your best flannel shirts and 1 won’t
kick.”
“Sorry, but we don’t keep them,

“Show me a pair of long logged
boots, then.”
“No boots either.”
“Got any plug tobacco?”
“No.”
“Any pipes or tallow candles?’
“No.”
“Skillets or fryin’ pans?”
“Not here. You’ll have to go to a
hardware store.”
“Well, have you got any blood and
thunder novels?”
“Sorry, but”
“See here, old man, I’ve come all
the way from Alpine to lay in my sup¬
plies, aud the first place I strike I run
up against a snag. 1 always had a
kind o’ sneaking idea that you fellers

JTorrerit'ft Castle*
The wreck of his home brought about
by Forrest's jealousy is still visible to
the rye, and passengers by the Hudson
river steamboats may even now see tbe
half ruined and partially completed
baronial castle which Forrest Ixiilt
upon the banks of tho Hudson, some
thirty miles above Now York, and
where it was his purpot to entertain
with true 'princely hospitality. The
building of the castle was an attempt
something like that of Alexander Du¬
mas. who with Ills earnings from the
sale of “Monte Cristo,” undertook to
erect, near Paris a castle which lie called
by t he name of this great romance, and
which would have required the income
of a duchy to maintain.
Had Forrest lived as lie proposed do¬
ing, his earnings must have been very
great to have maintained the life he in¬
tended to live in this est.ate upon the
Hudson. Mrs. Forrest never saw it
after she left it. Although after eight
years’ litigation she won a victory over
her husband, yet victory in her case
was tempered with sorrow. As she
grew old her heart softened toward
Forrest, and in her declining years she
only spoke of him in terms of endear
incut, which suggested that her recol¬
lections of him went back to the eiu lier
days when she was his bride and was
happy.—Cor. Philadelphia Press.

•The conditions of existence among
many savage tribes are so severe that
only the “fittest,” the sturdiest and
wiriest constitutions can survive. There
is a very line aud intelligent tribe of
blacks in the neighborhood of the
Cameroon*, named the Duallas, which
impost's from the first a very violent
test upon the constitutions of their off¬
spring. Like the ancient Germans, the
Duallas take a child when only four or
five days old and plunge it in the river.
This is repeated every day till the child
is strong enough to bathe itself, or till
it has succumbed under the treat
ineut. Other less intelligent and more
savage tribes of Africans train their
children to endure torture from a very
early age.
Even the average nursing of the
negro mother is enough to try the
toughness of the child’s constitution.
When the child is being fed he is set
astride his mother’s hip, and he must
hold on how he can and get what nutri¬
ment he can, while ins mother moves
about her ordinary duties. When he
is not tlius attached to his mother he
lies on a bed of dried grass on the
ground, in all the simplicity in which
nature brought him into the world,
and crams himself with earth, or what¬
ever he can lay his hands on.—Strand

Advlnt to » Young Man.
A successful young business man of
Atlanta tells this story: lie said that
when lie was a boy he had occasion to
borrow twenty dollars on a gold watch,
and went to a bank to secure the loan,
lie found there a venerable gentleman
whom lie had since come to know as
the father of Mr. Darwin Jones. The
) old gentleman sj>okc very kindly to the
boy. told biiu tiie bfink did not lead
money on watches and referred hiiu to
a pawnbroker. Then Mr. Jones said
slowly and earnestly, “But if I were
you l would not borrow the money."
“Why?" was asked by the impetuous
youngster. lir> Because „ and , every word ,
-
weighed a pound—“because you will
have to pay it back!" The wisdom of
a lifetime war in that sentence.—At
