In Florio’s Shoes.
I welcomed Florio Vincenzo when
he came over to become one of us.
He had no doubts of the future, for
he wooed the Godesa of Gpod
boldly. Florio Is fourteen; he came
from Palermo. He traveled light.
When be opened his cheap paper va¬
lise, it was apparently empty, save for
a pair of discredited and disreputable
old shoes. Florio bowed, cap in hand,
and his white teeth flashed as he
smiled suavely: “I am a poor man,
nobleman, seeking my fortune.” There
was an odor that an old inspector
knew. Tie picked up one of the shoes
and extracted from it, after somo
manipulation, a creased and crumpled
hunk of Bologna sausage. The other
shoe was stuffed w.Hi a soft sticky
and aggressively fragrant mass of
Italian cheese. These articles and a
sum of Italian money equivalent to
about $1.80, and the clothes he stood
in, formed the basis on which Florio
expected to rear his fortune.—World’s

SPEAKING OF SOUP.
Hott It Was Served in a Primitive Ger¬
man Hostelry*
“Speaking of soup,” said n prominent
musician who lias traveled over a good
part of the earth, reminds me of an ex¬
perience I had some years ago while ia
one of the .provinces of Germany I
had stopped over in a small town for a
day or two, and was at the best hotel
in the place. This is not saying a great
deal, for the patronage did not justify
anything like gorgeousness in the mat¬
ter of service or in the kind and char¬
acter of the food furnished the guests.
The proprietor, at any rate, was doing
the best that he could, and no doubt, I
would have got along all right but for
the peculiar method they employed in
serving soup. I have never seen (he
method employed in any other place,
and to be candid about it, 1 have not
been on the lookout for the unique way
of serving the first mini her on the
menu. The first intimation I had of
the curious practice was when a big,
heavy Hollander, with a husky voice,
who had rushed up behind me, asked
‘Soup7’ ‘yes,’ I replied, and before I
knew what had happened he had
squirted the soup out into my plate. I
was surprised and shocked and not a
little puzzled at first, because I did
not know how the waiter had managed
to squirt the soup inlo my plate so
quickly. 1 had expected him to bring
my soup in the usual way, in a plate.
But he shot tile soup over m.v shoulder
before the echo of the ‘.ia’ had left my
lips. I watched him make the round of
the table. He had the soup in a recep¬
tacle of some sort, that looked like a
cross between a bagpipe and something
else, and it worked with a suction-rod
arrangement. If a guest wanted soup
he would press the rod a#.the liquid
would interestlngAenough, squirt out im<*be^”. 1 my It was life,
I couldn’re<i Y ttr<g ';
I couldn't eat anything else in the
place. I suppose it was all right, but I
simply couldn’t stand for it, and when
I left the place I was nearly starved.”
—New Orleans Times-Democrat.
Stars by Dnyliprlit.
“Are the stars visible to ordinary
sight iu the daytime?” asks E. Walter
Maunder in Knowledge. “There is a
widespread tradition that they are;
that if an observer places himself at
the bottom of any deep shaft—as of a
mine, a well or a factory chimney—
which may shut off scattered light and
reduce the area of sky illumination act¬
ing on the retina he will be able to dis¬
cern the brighter stars without difficul¬
ty. Of course, every one knows that
Venus from time to time may be seen
even at high noon, hut then Venus at
her brightest is many times over
brighter than Sirius. Then, again, the
assistance of a telescope enables the
brighter stars to be discerned at mid¬
day, but the telescope not only directs
the eye and greatly limits the area
from which the sky light reaches the
observer, but it enormously increases
the brightness of the star relative to
that sky illumination. The naked eye
observation of true stars in full sun
light stands in quite a different cate
gory. Humboldt, who was much inter¬
ested in the question, repeatedly tried
the experiment in mines, both in Sibe¬
ria and in America, and not only
failed liimself ever to detect a star, but
never came across any one who had
succeeded. Much more recently an
American astronomer set up a tube for
the express purpose of seeing the
Pleiades by daylight, also with no ef¬
fect.”
Recollections of Youth.
Standing on the stern of an outgoing
Staten Island ferryboat at South Ferry
the other day was a gray haired old
man who appeared to be greatly inter¬
ested in the proceedings.
“This is interesting," he said, as be
turned to me, for lie evidently wanted
to talk to some one. “This primitive
method of fastening and loosening a
ferryboat carries me back to the days
of my childhood. It is the same wind¬
ing of noisy cog wheels, and the same
straining and pulling of heavy gang¬
planks by four men hardly equal to the
task.
“Back in 18oo, when I lived in Cam¬
den and xvent to school in Philadelphia,
I used to see that same sort of a pro¬
ceeding, and wondered then if there
wasn’t a better, quicker, easier and
more quiet method of fastening a ferry¬
boat in its slip. It appears that there
is not, for after forty-seven years I
see exactly the same method used in
all its primitive simplicity. Strange,
isn’t it?”—New York Herald.
