“Learning by experience in New
York is expensive business,” said an
out of town man. “The'other night
a lesson cost me just $8.50 and was
cheap at that. You see, I had a lit-
tle dinner for a few friends in a pri-
vate room at one of the best restau-
rants. Everything was just right
sod I was mighty well pleased. One
thing was especially pretty, and that
was the dish of spun sugar in which
the fruit was served. It had all
sorts of little flowers and bowknots
sticking out from it, and every one
of the crowd broke off a piece to nib-
ble on. When I went to pay the bill
one item surprised me; ‘$8.50 for a
dish/ was something I didn't under-
stand. ’What'S it for?* I asked,
pointing to this item. And it was
then and there explained to me that
a dish of spun sugar was just as
much the property of the establish-
ment as one of cut glass or silver
and any damage must be paid for.
It was all right enough, but it was
new to me.”
Kate Field once visited the Isles
of Shoals, and went fishing with an
New England skipper. During the
voyage she interviewed the old salt
on the fish question, with the follow-
ing result:
8aid I to the skipper:
“What do you consider the best
fish for boiling?”
Skipper—Boiling? Why cod, to-
be-sure.
I—-And what is best for baking?
Skipper—-You "couldn’t have no
better fish nor cod for baking.
I—How is it with broiling?
Skipper—I. never tasted no better
fish, for broiling than cod.
I—What is your opinion about
frying?
“Frying!" repeated the skipper,
scratching his head; “why, what
would you fry hut co^l ?”
I—What fish is best for general
purposes ?
Skipper—General purposes! Cod
can’t be beat for general purposes, I
tell you !
“What’s the matter? • Did the
barber try to scalp you?”
“It wasn’t the barber’s fault. I
treated a friend to a haircut, and he
insisted that I have another with
him. I couldn’t refuse.” ;
THE MARCH OF TIME.
CRUCIAL TEST.
8CAREO.
None but those who have passed
through it can appreciate the radical
nature of the change wrought by
teience in the whole mental attitude
4t its disciples. What they really
cry,put for in religion is a new
standpoint—a standpoint like their
own. The one hope, therefore, for
science is more science. Again, to
quote Bacon—wo shall hear enough
from the moderns by and by—“This
[ daro affirm in knowledge of na-
sure, that a little natural philosophy,
and the first entrance into it, doth
NMe the opinion to atheism; but,
the other side, much natural
by, and wading deep
it, will bring about men’s
s to religion.”—Hcnrv Drum-
mond.
She vowed the man she accepted
must be brave and he felt as cour-
ageous as Robin Hood. ....
“But what proof have I of your
bravery?” asked this apartment
house maid. ,
“I defy the world I” lie shouted,
gallantly.
“Tut, tut!” she laughed. “I have
heard that lxifore. Go down and de-
fy the juuitor and tell him to put
some njore cool into the furnace. I
am almost frozen.” ; '
But the young man paled and
called for his hat and cane.

(t) thin blood. Generally a con-|
firmed poor memory is due to all
four of these causes, and the last
may have been the first in order of

William Hanna Thompson soys
that blood is to the brain what oil
is to a lamp. This means that clear
thinking and remembering are* im-
possible with thin blood. So if you
want tojhink clearly and remember
readily see that you supply your
body with good food and boundless
oxygen, and give it exercise enough
to make it manufacture good red
blood and circulate it freely.
Fletcherizing.and full breathing
are indispensable to good blood; and
without good red blood running
clear and fast the brain cannot

HAD FUN WITH SION.
In the outer room of a New York
office this sign was posted a few days
ago: “Please do not whistle; we do
all that ourselves." The messenger
boys on seArice in the building evi-
dently saw a funny side to the no-
tice, for within an hour more than
twenty of them asked: “When do
you whistle?” When does the con-
cert begin?" “How much for* a

The stock argument against

not unanswerable.
