Fred Lngemann, Detroit jeweler mourns
the loss Of q gold watch and chain valued ut
$3.50, and the Free Press tells the following
tale OF their disappearance: A few days ago
Incorporating young man called at the store
and asked to look at some ladies' watches, and
after inspecting several, went away. saying
that he would bring his wife down to look at
them. A few days afterward the same young
man came back and asked to see the
watches again. He soon selected a
watch which suited him, and began
looking at some chains. Finally he
said, in careless way, II don't know which
chain would suit my wife best" and added
Come, Mr.. Lingemann, jump into my buggy
and 20 around to the house with me till show
these to my WIFE" Mr.. Lingemann, naturally
anxious to sell the goods. and suspecting nc
wrong, placed the watch and two chains in q
ease, and, accepting the customers invi
tation, was driven to No. 1874 Larned street
east. Here the young man jumped out Of the
buggy, and saying: please hold my horse
minute while ] run in and call my wife
down." disappeared through the front door
Mr.. Lingemsnn sat in the buggy few min.
utes, and, his customer not returning, ht
jumped out and rang the bell. When the
lady Of the house appeared an explanation
ensued which disclosed the fact that the
Young man had that day engaged board a
No. 1874. When he and Mr. Lingemann drove
up he entered the house and asked the land
lady if his trunks had arrived. She replied
that they had not, and he said, perhaps tn,
csrtman has dri, en- up the alley" aud with tina
he passed through the house and out at th,
back door, which was the last that has beer
seen of him.
Realizing that he had been duped, MIR
Lingemann Immediately informed the polio,
authorities, and officers were detailed to lool
for the thief and his spoils. At pawnshol
just above the Cass House the officers fount
the chains which the broker said had been pre-
sented as pledges, and that he the broker
suspecting thievery kept them without having
loaned any money on them. Thus Mr.. Linge

The FIRST RED CENT.--An item is going
the rounds of the papers stating that " the
first cent was proposed by Robert Morris, the
great financer of the Revolution. 1t began
to make its appearance from the mint in 1899.
1t bore the head Of Washington on one side
and thirteen links on the other" The cent
recently referred to in the Detroit News, be-
longing to Mr.. r. E. Roberts, of that city, has
ON one side the sun and dial, underneath which
are the words " Mind your Business" and on
the sides "Fugio" and " 1887" On the re-
verse circle of thirteen rings, linked togeth-
err surrounding one ring, on which is stamp
ed "Unted States - and in the CENTRE " We
are One.' 1t has always been understood to
have been designed by DR.. Franklin. Such is
a correct description of the first cent. In this
centennial era correctness in matters of his
tory is important. In this connection the ques-
ton arises, as it has about pins, where have
the millions of old red cents made by the gov
eminent gone tor Mr.. Roberts has also in
his possession copper coin, about the size OF
the old United States cent, bearing the head
of "Louis XVI, Rois DIES Francois 1890"

How TO SAvE.-The way to save is to be-
gin with little matters, and to begin at once.
No man ever made his way from poverty to
riches who scorned economy in all things and
could not comprehend the value of u single
cent. The poor man who would get ahead
pecuniarily must learn that to save cent after
cent-one at time, If he can do no more
till he gets a hundred of them, and so has
dollar, is wise and noble thing for him to do.
Having thus actually saved his first dollar, he
will have acquired with it a power of self-de-
NAL and a tenacity of purpose which will en-
able him to save one dollar after another un-
til he gets hundred and then he can save
ON indefinitely and become independent in
fortune But" says one who has lived all
his life without saving, "how am to save?
My habits are fixed. How can l learn to lay
by something for old age ?" You must do
as to money matters what certain ancient
school of philosophers did as to morals. These
old sages used, every night, to review their
actions for the day and see what they had
done, and what they might have done better
of the things which it had been necessary for
them to do. So, too, must you every night
review the actions Of the day, and see what
you have spent that you ought not to have
spent, and how you might have got more eco
nomically what it was necessary for you to
obtain. Any one who faithfully makes such
a review of his expenditures win be apt to
discover many opportunities for retrenchment
and reform, and then, if he WILL he can at
once begin to save, and may acquire economi-
cal habits which will secure his future pros
perity.

MISCELLANY.
nAn Errrcrs OF As FLAMES.


OF all the so-called improvements which
have been effected from time to time IN the
means by which we make ourselves comfort
able and render ourselves independent OF the
limitations which nature would impose upon
MS. perhaps the introduction of gas was hail
ed and has been looked upon as among the
greatest. 1t wants but little experience, how
ever of the manner in which people live in
towns to convince us that the reverse of this
is the case, and that the pain and misery which
If has been the means of inf1icting must far
outweigh its advantages If any one doubt
this. let him examine his sensations in the
morning after having spent the previous ev-
ening in close room blazing with gas, and
compare them with what he feels after having
spent the corresponding hours in the open air,
or in a fresh room moderately lighted with oil
or candles. There are but few people to whom
such experience would not show that the eff
feet of the gas was feeling lassitude and de-
nression. if not downright headache and
if they were to repeat the experiment, who
would not suffer general loss OF tone. Yet
wherever gas is to be procured this is pre-
cisely the misery to which people subject
themselves. In nine out of ten houses in the
neiphborhood of towns, if one goes from the
fresh air into a room in which the people are
sitting on a winter evening, the fresh breath
is enough to suffocate one, and yet the people
within the room are entirely unconscious
they NAV be more or less restless and depress-
ed hut as this is their normal state they do
not recognize the cause. In this way, to say
nothing of what takes place in theatres and
places of amusement, the evils which gas is
answerabe for are incalculable, though II
they could be estimated they must far out
weigh the blessings which accrue from the
abundance and cheapness of the light. The
fact is that the money cost of the fuel forms
only one part of the expenses of light there
is the consumption of the oxygen, and in this
gas is very extravagan. SO that although we
now obtain tenfold the light in our rooms
which we had before the introduction OF gas
without any increase Of expense in money we
have to pay for it in a tenfold vitiation OF the
air as moderate fire, yet who would live IN
a room with fire or even a pan OF charcoal
without a chimney. Yet it is a common
thing to go into room in which three, four,
or five gas flames have been burning for
hours without either door or window having
been open that the people who live in these
rooms escape the evil effects is not to be sup
posed. The only thing is that they have not
the sense of courage enough to trace the eff
fects to their cause. Rather than give up
their warmth and light they wilfully close
their eyes to what follows. When people in
flict these miseries on their friends, whether
consciously or not, they become positive
nuisance and are ct subjects to be dealt with
by the sanitary inspector. To have to dine
with them is punishment headache is
sure to follow, however abstemious one may
be.--FroD. Nature.
