He Got His Answer.

Jenny Lind once went to hear Father
Taylor preach in Boston, but the
preacher, ignorant of her presence,
paid a glowing tribute to her powers
of song. As the Swedish nightingale
leaned forward with delight, drinking
in this unexpected praise, a tall man,
who sat on the pulpit stairs, began to
unwind himself, and when he had done
so. wanted to know whether any one
who had died at Miss Lind's concerts
would go to heaven. Father Taylor
said "Sir, Christian will go to heaven
wherever he dies but fool will be a
fool, even though he he on the pnlpit
stairs. 1t would take more grace to
save such "A man as that than it would
take skim milk to feed an elephant"

The season has so far been favorable
for the grass crop. If we can have the
most suitable weather for this crop we
have no reason to complain as to the
others, tor in this part of the country
no other crop is nearly as valuable. 1t
is, of course, too early to predict what
the grass crop may be, but one thing
which is essential for good crop we
are now sure of, that is IA good start at
the beginning of the season. Grass Is
looking finely, but the yield of hay will
depend largely upon the amount and
distribution of rain during the next six
weeks. Two or three weeks without
rain at any time before the first of July
would diminish the hay crop thousands
of tons.

Much In a Name.

''It has often amused me-" said
well-known railroad man. who spends
his nights In the occupation known as
batting around town." ''to observe
how quickly the walters, barkeepers
and other men employed in restaurants
or cafes find out who man is, and how
they strive to see who can do him the
most honor il he happens to be a man

was standing in the corridor of the
Windsor night before last talking with
a friend about this very thing. when a
well-known man entered. Without Civ
ing you his name, can say he invent
ed certain railway carriage which
has made him q millionaire. When no
came into the hotel he nodded careless
ly 10 one or two brokers who were
standing about the door, and they took
off their hats TO him in the utmost po-
likeness. He was accompanied by
man who had once been a salesman in
a dry goods house on Broadway, but
whom lucky chance had thrown in
with the railroad magnates; the young
man is with his wealthy friend at all
time and in all places. He treats him
with the most elaborate respect. In
return he makes about $40, 200 year
by his constancy and courtesy.
In
of the hotel clerks bowed to them. The
magnate acknowledged the salute. No
one would think of snubbing hotel
clerk, you know. Then he went over
and wrote telegram at the desk, and
the clerk bowed, smiled and called him
| by name as he took it. The hall boy
picked bit of lint from his sleeve,
and also called him by name; and
when he went to the bar he was saluted
again in the same way. Of course. it
is natural enough that such man
as he is should be known everywhere.
But he is only an instance. Employees
make it point to remember every
name they can get hold of, and there is
no doubt that it pleases a man i'm
mensely to be known by name at any
popular hotel or restaurant. The first
waiter at Delmonico's who called me
by name in the presence of country
friend of mine whom 1had taken there
to dinner received a substantial tip.
At that time-this was some years ago
Il was not in the habit of going to
Delmonico's much, and one night when
l was sitting alone there and nobody
was within hearing l called the waiter
to me and asked him how he came to
find out who l was. He was very
frank. He said when men were dining
or drinking at his table, and there
were any introductions he made it
point to catch the names if possible.
He had heard some one call my name,
and night or two later man came in
and left note for me, accompanied by
an accurate personal description, and
ever afterward found I was known
at the restaurant. 1t is evidently as
much branch of the trade as serving
drinks or cooking dinner. The man
vino finds he is known in certain res
taurant or drinking place will always
frequent that place if it is at all con-
venient. You touch mans self-es-
teen and you have a powerful hold on

Since the invention of telegraphy few con-

Rosa Bonheur is the most talented among
a remarkable family of painters who ex-
hibit artistic genius through three genera
tions She was born in Bordeaux, France,
in 1892, was the eldest of four children, and,
owing to the poverty of the family, she was
obliged to give the greater portion Of her
time to household duties. Her father was
a portrait painter, and gave instruction in
art to his children. Rosa developed the
most inherent talent, exhibiting her first
painting at the age of 1S. Among her forty
large paintings, the one which brought her
the greatest praise was the "Horse Fair"
finished in 1861 1t was in making the
sketches for this painting among the rough
horsemen that she adopted the male attire,
which she retained and prefers since Her
appearance is that of short, stout drover,
and not that of the most charming female
painter that ever lived. Miss Bonheur was
never married.
