‘ HE KNEW SAGE’S HABIT.
; One the big younger proprietors
of one of the department stores
I up town that advertise “bargain
! sales” on a special f>reannounced all
j day every week has been winning
his expenses by betting with bis co¬
terie in Deimonico’s that Russell
Sage would be one of the first to ar¬
rive at his store on the morning of
the marked down disposals. He
knew from experience that the vet
eran financier rarely in the spring
and fall misses one of these “clear¬
ings out.” Hr. Sage picks up bar¬
gains in all sorts of things which
he can find use for, from a pair of
trousers ($3.50—original price $7)
to small kitchen utensils marked
down from 5 cents to a penny
apiece. would he judi¬
“If every one as
cious in their buying as I am,” Mr.
Sage once observed to the narrator
of this true story, “there would be
less poverty and the mortification
and suffering resulting therefrom.
Nearly every one is living beyond
his means.”—Hew York Times.
When Sir Thomas Returned.
' The king fixed his eyes on Sir
Thomas a little reproachfully. The
gallant knight flinched slightly be¬
neath the steady gaze. Tom¬
“Did you catch the cup,
my ?” his majesty asked, and he ask¬
ed" it in the tone of a man who
knows just what the answer will be.
“I did not,” said Sir Thomas.
He hove a heavy sigh as he said
it. Then he hove two.
“You did not,” repeated his maj¬
esty. “I know you did not. The
trouble is that in knotical parlance
you did not knot fast enough.”
The king’s features relaxed as he
relieved himself of ibis humorous
sally, and, taking Sir Thomas by
the arm, he permitted one eyelid to
slightly droop as they passed down
the corridor and through door.—Cleveland a green

Paris and Snails.
j Some alarm is expressed hv ccr
tain Paris epicures because the sup
pi of snails of the finest quality
s to be falling off to a serious
extent. This apprehension, how
ever, will cause no distress upon an
extended scale, as the taste for the
deliberate creature that carries his
house upon his back has not been
worldwide. In fact, it has never
gained much ground outside of the
Latin race, and beyond the borders
of France itself the number of gour
mets who have extolled the snail as
a table delicacy of the most desir
able sort has not made a long list,
But snails are clean feeders. Why
should there be anywhere a preju
dice against them among the eaters
of lobsters and crabs, of sty fed
pigs and of the bulging legs of gog
gle eyed bullfrogs?
Sinking Creek Has Sunk Again.
The disappearance of Sinking
crock, a large mountain stream in
v
Pendleton county, W. Va., has mys
titled the people and has caused
financial loss. It furnished power
fur several mills, but has suddenly
disappeared. Some weeks ago the
water in the stream began to fall
and now the bed is almost dry.
There has been plenty of rain, and
the only explanation of the,stream’s
disappearance is that it has worn its
way through into a subterranean
cavern and joined one of the under
ground streams. Old citizens say
that the creek disappeared in the
j same manner many years ago by
finding a subterranean outlet. This
i incident gave the name to the creek.

Long Drawn Out.
Wien the French academy was
founded in 1635, it started to make
: a dictionary of the language. This
was first published in 1691 and a
seventh edition in ISIS. But about
forty years ago a new dictionary
was begun, th.e nation appropriating
nearly $13,000 yearly to carry it on.
So far the academy has not got be
yond the letter A, and to stir it up
there is talk of withdrawing the na
tional grant unless better speed is
shown.
». Kipling Story.
As a preface to his attack upon
the recent army appointments in
England Rudyard Kipling tells a
stcry of a man who was carrying a
bag and of whom a fellow traveler
asked what it was that the bag
contained. “Mongooses,” was the
answer. “My brother sees snakes,
and I’m taking the mongooses up to
them.” “But your brother
doesn’t see real snakes?” “No;
I but these aren’t real mongooses.”

Queer Playhcur® i het Colons-*
Gome Detroit Children.
The children that lived in the
shoe didn’t know what fun was.
That’s what the children that live
in a bottle in Detroit think.
There was the “old woman” to he
reckoned with in the shoe, but G.
Jay Vinton’s youngsters can get
both fists full of jam in the pantry ref¬
and then duck into a haven of
uge in their huge bottle and have it
all to themselves.
The bottle came in sections to tire

PLAYHOUSE IN A BOTTLE.
from Omaha, where it was once on
exhibition in the Transmississippi
exposition. It is made of wood.
At Omaha it did double work as
advertising agent for the firm
whose goods it represented and as a
candy booth. It was shipped back
to Mr. Vinton, who built it, to be
smashed up for firewood.
But the ever alert young Vintons
heard of it, and then they pleaded
until he promised them the bottle
for a playhouse. Though a ten foot
section of the neck was left out and
another ‘section from the bottom,
the cork is still high enough so that
when the little fellows wake up
they house can see the cork of their play
through their second floor
windows.
The bottle has a door large
enough for them to enter, though
the children are sure there would
be more fun in crawling in and out
where the cork fits in the neck.
At least ten small children cart
get into the bottle and imagine to
their hearts’ content that they are
sirup and pickles and everything
else that they can’t have much of.—

Young Clockmakers.
Atlanta, Ga., boasts of some in¬
genious and ambitious boys since
two lads of that place, the older but
fourteen and the younger eleven,
have designed and constructed a
clock that is a wonder of painstak¬
ing work.
It contains over 300 pieces of
wood, all of them cut from boards
with a smail foot power scroll saw
and afterward sandpapered and put
together with screws and mucilage.
The clock rey resents a cathedral,
from the dome of which a bell peals
forth the hours of the day. Inside
the building the columns and statu¬
ary of a cathedral are reproduced in
wood.
The clock is fifty-one inches high
and twenty-one inches wide at the
base, and the contrast in colors is
decidedly pretty, the wood used be¬
ing maple, white holly and walnut.
The figures on the dial were cut
from walnut with a pocketknife aud
look attractive on the white holly.
of Notwithstanding the the simplicity
tools used, the boys have suc¬
ceeded in producing a timepiece of
which they may be justly proud.—
American Boy.
Was Moses a Cowboy?
Fred heard his father talking
about a cattle stampede in the west,
where the cowboys were caught in
the great rush and some of them
trampled to death. After a minute
or two of ’profound thought he said:
‘Tapa. was Moses a cowboy"'”
“No, Fred. Why do you ask?”
“Well, I’ve always heard of him
as being in the bulrushes!”
