THE MONUMENT.

That General Grant was great soldier
few will deny; likewise few will deny
that to him perhaps more than to any
one else was owing the happy result of
the war which was started to sunder the
Union but which terminated by saving it
and making it more strong than it was.
a grateful people desire to do homage
to his greatness and his worth,
and that which now agitates them
is to find a suitable outward
expression. People have generally come
to the opinion that grand national mon
ument should be erected to his memory,
and the monument move may be said
to have become a craze. Every town and
city now wants a monument, and almost
every person has a special plan for it; if
all the monuments that are now eontem-
plated shall be erected the nation will
bankrupt itself and destroy that which
General Grant did so much to save. Not
to coincide with all the wild schemes for
monuments that are gotten up is to be
looked upon almost as a traitor to the
country; certainly as great disparager
of the work and worth of General Grant.
Are such extremes and extravagances in
any way special honor and respect to
the memory of General Grant? In fact
from what we know of his simplicity OF
tastes and character, is it not safe to pre-
sumo that all the talk, and good deal of
it is twaddle, too, now going on about
monuments would be highly distasteful to
General Grant himself were he living?
Then for one moment consider the differ
ent ideas as to what the monument should
be. If all these ideas could be put into
practical shape, and there could be
a collection of models of them made, the
collection would certainly look like a mu-
scum OF antiquities, if not museum of
curiosities. Monument makers are liable !
to forget him whose memory they are to
commemorate in their great desire to |
elabrate their work and crown them
selves. The great home OF monuments
is Westminster Abbey, and some of them
are absolutely hideous. In America We

Mason then proceeds to give in outline
what to eat and what to avoid. Mar.
settles prohibits the entry into the city
of melons, cucumbers and summer fruits,
instructions issued to the public were to
avoid all excess; to drink as little as
possible between meals eat beef and
mutton and protect the body from sud-
ien chills and see that the food taken is
not stale. Daily tepid baths followed.by
vigorous rubbing are recommended.
Mason says there is nothing more
perilous than for persons who have once
left an infected atmosphere to return to
ii before the pestilence is completely
suppressed. He continues: mo person
should return to an infected city unless
in condition of good health, particularly
in respect to all functions OF nutrition.
Whenever possible, persons SO returning
should stop for at least forty eight hours
in a suburb or other locality as near as
possible to the infected city. He says in
the face of cholera epidemic diarrhosa
is a serious illness, and should be treated
accordingly. He also says: "As a
popular remedy for immediate use moth
ing has been found superior to chlorodyn,
sold by most druggists.

Hotel Mems Tricks.

"There is where we make or lose"
said hotel keeper, speaking of the cult
nary department. at has to be watched
closer than any other branch of the
business"
"Where do you get all these dishes
with Choctaw namess Do you suppose
anybody knows what they are ordering
when they pick one out ?"
"That's one of the tricks af the trade.
Don't mention us. I'll put you on. The
secret of the thing is that it saves us a
good deal. If get up bill for dinner
full of French names, nine out of ten
persons will puzzle over it for minute
or two and then order plain dinner of
meat and vegetables. These fancy
dishes cost good deal because they are
rare and require vast amount ofseason-
ing, spices, etc, and must be carefully
made by special cook. o, yes, we have
them; that is, some of them. You may
find several down on the bill that are
not made up at all. If we happen to
have call for any one of those particu.
lar dishes, the waiter returns with an
apology and the information that it is
all gone. You see we keep up our rep
utation, make big spread on the bill of
fare, feed the people on meat and vege-
tables. and if the guest is not satisfied
he gets up from the table kicking himself
because he hadn't been raised in France
or the Black Hills and couldn't read
what was set before him. He'll probably
90 away and tell his friends about the
delicious French dinner we set up. Say"
he continued, as he directed late ar
rival to the dining room, did you ever
see bottle of olives or sauce, or any of
those expensive relishes on the table
uncerked or a dish of nuts set before you
without nut cracker? l thought you
had. know you have if you ever took
a meal here when / didn't know you
were around. You see, if we uncork
those things people would eat 'em if we
don't they can't get inside of them, and
it's hard work to get busy waiter to do
it before you're through your dinner and
crying for pie. Amy way, only one per-
son in a hundred Is likely to want to
appear greedy enough to taste every-
thing. There's only one person that will
do it, and that is a woman. Take a
woman away from home, and she'll taste
everything set before her. She Just
tastes to be tasting-to see how other
people make things, you know, and then
she'll 60 back home and talk till the next
trip about that perfectly lovely jell, or
that horrid catsup Come around and
take dinner with us tomorrow"

followed by the eve. "Let him have all
he wants." said the skipper; "the more
line, the quicker I'll down him." Then
ensued struggle that would have made
some of the hand liners of tie northern
fishing banks open their eyes. When
the line Tor rope) had gone out nearly
two-thirds of its length, the fisherman
skillfully caught it with behaving pin.
and so gradually reduced the speed OF
the fish. Finally, throwing Oft the !r.h,
he seized the line in his hand and ran
forward, then aft, taking in the slack so
gained. Then the shark would 90 straight
away, taking him to the rail. and the
Delaying pin would be adopted again as
a soother. Four or five such rushes as
this evidently had very decided effect
on the great fish. As soon as the skipper
began to take in the line rapidly, then to
slack it out, now running forward, then
aft, wrenching, hauling, lifting, and
stacking, until finally the great fish
made no fierce Iushes and became mere
" a dead weight, when the man clapped
on. and hauled him to the xunwale.
"You see," said the skipper, blowing and
putting with the exercise, zone man kin
catch big shark, if he knows how TO do
it. l list drowned him." The shark
gave some terrific lunges as his head was
hauled out of water, and, at my request,
block and tackle were rugged and he
was hauled on deck and dispatched by a
blow on the head. l watched partieu-
Iarly for the pilot fishes as he came UP.
The little striped creatures darted wildly
about as if bewildered and then disap-
peared beneath the bottom of the smack,
evidently thinking they had found an
other companion. There were other at
PENDANTS of the shark that did not desert
it. / noticed them about in the water,
long black snake like creatures about a
foot in length, and when the shark was
hauled from its native element they
came with il, adhering to its sides and
presenting strange contrast. The
fishes were Remoras, the Echeneinus Of
the naturalist. They nay be termed
boarders to a certain extent, as they live
about the body of shark, and ! have
seen them on a large porgy and also
clinging 10 turtle. They have upon
the upper side of the head remarkable
sucker, composed of parallel plates, SO
that they can attach themselves at any
time. So firm hold did they take that
it was with difficulty that pulled them
of, using considerable force. Cor. N. Y.

The Cent Coinage.

The first coin ever issued in this coun-
try was the old fashioned cart wheel
cent. The first issue was in 1893, and
there were three dies made. With the
single exception of the year 1915, there
has been no break in the issue of cents
from that time to the present. 1t was in
E95 that the Liberty cap was changed
to the fillet head, and these were issued
regularly for thirteen years, when the
Goddess of Liberty appeared on the coin
with thirteen stars surrounding it. A
cent of the issue of 1899, in good condi
ton, is worth $40 or $50.
