brass pan In which bubbles a mixture
of poppy and water. Tills mixture la

to be more curefully boiled In the next
room whore the process Is exactly
similar. Prom there It goes to another
room where the sirup Is reduced to the
consistency of treacle over slow Ores.

A Banker's Generosity.
One day Humboldt was dlninj? with
Mendelssohn the banker nuil nu un-
usual thing for til in. was very silent.
Ills host remarking It observed to
Humboldt that ho was sure he must
he 111.
"No" said Humboldt "but I am in
great trouble. Only ten minutes be-
fore leaving my apartment to come
here I received from my landlord a
note Informing me that he had sold the
house In which I reside and that I
must move. The very thought drives
iuo to despair. I really cannot bear to
move again. "
Mendelssohn gradually led Humboldt
Into conversation during which he
found time to write a note nnd receive
an answer to it. He then took Hum
boldt aside nnd said: "Hy this note I
learn that I nm now the owner of the
house In which you reside. The condi-
tion however upon which I have Inj-
coino Its possessor is that yon continue
to occupy your apartment In It as long
as you live."
Wanted Bargain.
One day a small Cincinnati boy came
to a halt before a sign over a desk In
the otllce of the express company. It
gavo the rate for money orders and
after studying It for a few minutes he
walked up to the cashier and said bold-
ly. "i want a money order."
"How large u one my boy?" the
clerk Inquired lienltfiuintly.
"Well let's see" pondered the little
fellow. "The rate for a ten dollar or-
der is 8 cents isn't it?"
"Yes; that's right."
"Well I want a drum and pair of
roller skate9 and a new straw hat and
some candy. Ten dollars will be
enough."
Then he tished through his pockets
and triumphantly placed a nickel und
three coppers before the astonished
clerk. It took ten minutes to convince
the youngster that nothing less than
$10.0S could buy a money order foi

Costly Jar of the Subway.
The tuppenny tube London's sub-
way once set flre to a house In a man-
ner so extraordinary as to merit atten-
tion. In a mansion beneath which
runs the subterranean railway one of
the bedroom fireplaces was fitted with
a blower a sheet of Iron inside tho
grate which can be raised or lowered
to regulate tho dralt. The blower rest-
ed on a series of Iron notches. One
afternoon (I servaut kindled a fire in
the grate nnd wheu It was well alight
raised the blower so that tho coal
would burn but slowly and so left It
while she went downstairs. Presently
deep In tlio clay beneath the founda-
tions of the house a train rushed along.
The vibrations from its passing were
sutliclent to Jar the blower from the
notches on which the servant had left
it. It dropped down. The draft in-
creased; the lire raged madly. T.i
dames were enough to set the chimney
on lire burning soot set the water tunii
on the roof alight and there resulted
a considerable voiiliagratloii. Pittsburg

Too Much of a Good Thing.
George Marshall a philanthropist
who always kept a sharp lookout never
to be wasteful decided to no for a
week's camping taking as his guests
some raided street urchins. One niorn-
Inj; lie used the bils of meat left from
the evening before and made hash for
breakfast. There was some left over
which he concluded to reheat and serve
again at noon.
Johnnie will veil have some hash?"
he asked one lad.
"ltd your life" replied the lad. who
was constitutionally hungry.
"Peter pass your plate for some
hash" to another freckled nosed lad.
"Not if I knows it" was the unex
pected reply.
"I thought you liked hash from the
way you ate it this morning" replied
Mr. Marshall.
'I did like it for breakfast" said the
lad "but none of yer review of re-
views for me for dinner." Lipiiincolt's
