DON’T LIKE DINNER PAILS.
Odd Device* In Which People Carry
Their Food to Work Every Day.
No end of ingenuity is displayed in
getting up devices whereby a person
can carry his or her luncheon to the
office without the general publics
knowing it. There is a large class of
those wiio wish to save the price of
their midday meal by bringing the
food from home, aud who yet don’t
like to carry it in an ordina; y bundle.
In the winter a man may stick the
parcel in his overcoat picket, or di¬
vide it and stick half in each pocket,
and a woman may bide a sandwich
and a piece of cake in tier muff. In
summer, however, both these re¬
sources are of no avail.
One plan is to get an old portable
camera, take the mechanism out
and use the box to carry luncheon
in. This is a capital idea if the man
is not afraid of arousing suspicion by
the unusual habit of carrying a kodak
to and from business every day. The
box will often furnish amusement,
however. Many persons, especially
women, labor under the fear thafthe
man opposite them in a car with a
camera in his lap wants to take their
picture. They squirm mi easily in
their seats, glare at the innocent
looking man. gaze at the camera aj>
parently aimed at them ami finally
perha|is go to a seat in another part
of the ear. They would feel pretty
cheap if they Hooked into the instru¬
ment and saw that it contained only
a ham sandwich, a boiled egg or two
and a piece of pie.
Boxes for holding luncheon are
also made in the shape of books. The
binding is an exact reproduction of
that of some books, the title “De¬
cline and Fall of the Roman Empire,
Volume i,” or ’‘Ben Hur,” being 1«>Id¬
ly printed on the edge. It may seem
add that a man should carry one
book six months without finishing it,
io the bright young man perhaps
puts a pa{>er cover, such as is used in
the Mercantile library, on the U>x.
He changes this cover from lime to
fine as it becomes soiled, and there¬
fore appears to lie a great reader.
A sufficiently simple device tor the
pretty typewriter is to carry lemon¬
ade biscuit and cake in a “dummy”
music roll. The objection here is
that a young woman is hardly likely
to go to a big office hmldiug in Wail
street or Bread way to take music
lessons. She may cany the roll
there occasionally, but if she firings
it regularly every morning at !>
o'clock and takes it away every after¬
noon at 5 she cannot deceive any one
who sees her frequently uud {jays
attention to ber.
It is a trait of human nature, how¬
ever. that people ask themselves ten
times asoften “What are they think¬
ing of met” as they actually notice
the attire or demeanor of another.
In ail probability not more than one
or two ever bother their heads about
whether the tjq>ewriter’s roll con¬
tains music or muffins. If she would
only realize this she would lie less
uneasy —and perhaps more unhappy.
The oddest device of all w r as that
of a girl who is a pupil at the Art
Htiidents’ league. This inventive
genius brought her luncheon in the
tall hat which she wore an idea that
would hardly recommend itself to
many. It should be added that this
remedy soon struck her as worse
than the malady, and she now brings
tier food in a piece of paper or gets it
in a restaurant.—New York Tribune.
What III rein Think of Man.
Possibly, uow that Professor Gar
aier has directed serious attention to
iiseoveriug the structure of monkey
talk, we may before long have some
naturalist translating bird words into
English. It is certainly humiliating
to find ourselves, after centimes of
intercourse with feathered snugsters,
still such aliens'to each other. What
in average bird thinks of an average
man it is difficult even to conceive.
To the mind of a grouse, man is a
riant with an iron stick that shoots
jut death. To a caged canary he
must appear an amiable lunatic,
whose only idea of language is to
say: “Twee, tw’ee!” but who, if in
r pleasant humor, may perha]>s
jffer a bit of grounsel or a lump of
