A Good Word for the GROWER.

"You can make fun of the growler
as much as you please. and no doubt
the young roughs who work it could
be engaged in better business; but I
can tell you that the growler is doing
more for real temperance, if not for to-
tai abstinence, than all the orators on
the temperance platform.
This assertion was made on a recent
evening by a man who has been identi-
fled with the operations of the police
department for eight or ten years. He
was sitting in dining-room with a
pitcher Of cold beer frothing beside
him: He added: ut never seemed to
occur to the people who now drink
their beer ut home that they could do so
until recently. When they wanted a
drink they went to bar and staid there
until they had enough, and generally a
great deal too much. They would be
introduced to gang of loungers, and
would have to treat them, and would
60 home busted and drunk. Now, if a
man likes beer it is the fashion to quiet
~ slide out in the evening with pail
or % pitcher, get a, heaping quart for
less than the price of half that quantity
bought'in glasses would BE-, and drink
it in ease and comfort at home. He
gets it fresh and cool. Usually the
women folks in the house like sip of
it, and that in itself keeps him from
hanging around a bar The GROWER
is a great institution. The more it is
worked the less whisky and spirits will
be drank. and the better for all hands. "

Sweet Girls and Smart Baker.

The school girls sweet tooth is still
in existence. In an uptown fashion
able school in New York, which, like
most of its class, has but one session,
with an intermission of fifteen minutes
at IL o'clock, rleighboring baker has
been allowed to appear daily at noon
with basket of buns, mullins, ginger
nuts and the like, and dispose of his
wares to the scholars. The transaction
is always the care of an under teacher,
who sees that the cash department is
satisfactorily managed, and also that
noimproper goodies are offered. The
Graphic says that among such articles
kind of meringue tart is especially
forbidden as being expensive, and I'M
til one day last month it was supposed
the order in this respect was universally
obeyed. AT that time; the teacher in
charge, having seen, as she. supposed;
the last girl supplied, hurried below
stairs to her lunch, leaving, as usual,
the baker to make his exit For some
reason she returned at once, and enter
ing. the school-room was greatly sur
prised at the scene which met her eyes.
The baker was still there his basket
pushed aside, large tray. of the. ia
booed tarts before him. and surrounded
by group Of eager girls, who bought
and feastedl as rapidly as possible! The
denouement was brief but decisive, Il
was discovered that the deception had
been carried on all Winter, a. false bot
tom to the basket concealing the con-
traband goods. The school has changed
its baker.

A Thrifty Business Man Of Kansas City

KANSAS Cry, Mo-, Nov. 9.-One Of the
we'll known business men Of this city has
been known to the community as Frank
Gray, Two years ago he started saloon
here, and was so successful that he soon
opened grocery store. He became largely
interested in real estate, and was
considered man of tact and
energy. Recently L w. Foster, a
piano-tuner.s became jealous of his
wife because OF her intimacy with Gray,
and sent her to her father In Chicago de-
claring he should ssek divorce. A few
days ago detective learned from the son.
in-law Of Mrs Mary B. Walcott that Gray
was a woman and his own mother -in-law.
For fifteen years she has led dual sx.
istence, being "a man among men" here
and during her frequent visits to Columbus,
Ohio, her old homs, she donned the APP
parel Of her sex. 1t Is thought
she usually changed her toilets
from the masculine to the feminine
and from the feminine to the masculine
again when stopping in Chicago. She has
a deep voice for woman, drank with men
at the bars, firtsd with the women, and,
indeed, played her part so we'll that no
suspicion was aroused, The married daugh.
ter lives here The jealous piano tuner has
fastened to Chicago in order to avoid the
jeers of his acquaintance. He will seek q
reconciliation with his wife Gray, or Mrs

Some NickaGnicS.

OF sarcastic nicknames there are
scores of instances in history and bio
graphy. The eminent Doctor Aber-
nethysof London, wrote abook called
Surgical Observations, and from his
invariable habit of advising his patients
to read it, he became known as Doc
tor My-Book." Admiral Vernon, be-
cause OF. his custom of wearing a
"Grogram cloak in bad weather, was
called "Old Grog." 1t was this same
Admiral Vernon, aby the way, who in
stituted the custom of serving out a
mixture of spirits and water to the sea-
men of! the royal navy, a beverage
which they called '.grog," in memory
of its orr ginator. Talleyrand, the
French statesman, who was famed alike
for his wit and his sarcasm, was at one
time Bishop of Autun, and his many
enemies jocularly spoke of him as His
Irreverents Reverence" Lindley Muir
ray, by a similar play on words, was
facetiously called the "Ungrammatical
Grammarian.'
In 1889, few students in the old
English university of Oxford formed
themselves into club, pledged them
selves to closer observance of college
discipline than had prevailed before
that time, and afterward united in
works of practical piety and benevo-
lence.
They were the objects of the unspar-
ing ridicule of both students and tu-
tors, and were dubbed in derision ''The
Holy Club" bible Moths" and ''Bible
Bigots." But what incensed their law
less fellow-students most was their
strict attention to the rules laid down
by the university authorities; and so, to
express their hatred and contempt, they
called them '.1MethOdists." This name
stuck, and the CLUB proved to be the
germ of ono of the greatest modern re-
igious denominations.-H. +. ReddakI,
