Qot The Right Kind Of Butter.

as that excellent man. Mr.. Allen White,

THAT looks nice. It's genuine butter,

lueried Baltzly.
Now this was o leading question, as

that stuff to Baltzly, SO he spoke up and
said;
"Of course it is butter. Did you
think it was lard! Don't you see il has

only be found in real butterP ltmakes
me think OF cows. and meadows, clover
and butter cups. just to smell it, and
the grocer held some Of it on q paddle
under the nose of Baltzly, who asked:
''Yes, but is it butter?"
els it butter? Why of course it is
butter. Some people are SO suspicious
that they won't believe butter is butter
unless they see it taken out Of the churn
themselves. Man alive, smell it. Don I

around in newly mown hay? You can
Just taste the buttermilk in 1t.
"Yes but Is 1t really butter?'
It was evident to the grocer, who goes
to church regularly, that the crisis had
arrived. He had either to lie or lose q
cash customer. He was too conscien-
tious . man to lose customer, so he
came right out and told lie. He said
It was hutter.
''Do you say It il real butter from

A Famous Washington Bar
Room.

The, old gray-haired negro who
tended the bar was in himself
a curiosity. He told as he filed my
glass that he had been tending this
same bar for thirty-five years and
that this saloon was the chief resort
in former days Of the statesmen Of
the capital. Said he: Il have often
seen Clay, Webster and Calhoun
drinking here together. Henry
Clay and Daniel Webster used to he
here night after night. Clay always
drank brandy iuleps, aud his spirits
rose rapidly under the influence of
liquor. Webster drank considerable
but the only observable change in
him was that his eyes grew brighter
aud his talk became If anything
more measured. Calhoun seidons
drank strong drinks. and usually
took either lemonade or sherry, and
often nothing. Jie would come in
to talk. They were lively fellers in
them days and they liked their fun
just as al well as the big men do
now. They often play cards here
"Did they gambler" l asked mo
not for money, but generally for
the drinks. l remember a game
Of cards Clay and Webster and two
other men played here one rainy
night. They played here for the
drinks and smells. The men
that won drank, and those who
were defeated paid for the drinks
and were forced to smell OF the
glasses Of their opponents. They
started in at 10 o'clock and played
until 2. Luck was against Clay,
and l don't think he won a drink
during the whole evening."-Cler,-
