NJ, n member Of the Persian telegraph
department. Ii was native built house,
with square court yard In the center One
of the first things that awakened my curios-
ity was three huge earthenware Jars standing
in row on one side of the compound They
were jars that stood as high as a mans
shoulder, and bellied out much in the shape
Of slender barrels. Each vessel held about
thirty-five gallons
"What are they for--to hold rain watergs

eBut not these same jars-2 900 yearsF'
mo, nos exactly; but those three Jars have
probably had wine fermented In them every
season for the last 100 years. He then went
on to explain further about the Jars.
The Persians believe that these wine jars
improve with age just as the wine itself
does, and that better wine can be made in
old jars than in new ones. A wine Jar 100
years old is worth several times more than a
new one, not because Of any value attached
to its antiquity in the abstract, but because
1t Is thoroughly seasoned vessel. Good
wine, they say cannot be made in new jars;
the older the jars the better the wine
The Mohammedan injunction against the
making and drinking of intoxicants has had
the effect Of making sad hypocrites Of three
fourths Of the upper class of Persians. Even
the mollahs and seyuds get drunk in secret,
but openly they not only do not indulge, but
they profess to regard those who do so with
adherence. When the wine making season
arrives there is as much wire pulling and
diplomacy employed among the Persians to
make wine on tho quiet, without mourning a
scandal, as there is hero In u political cam
paign. Thomas Stevens in New York Sun.

In a street car alone. A conductor tells a

and happened to be the sole passenger. He
was in great hurry TO get down town, but
hesitated as he looked at the vacant interior
Of the car. Finally happy idea seemed to
strike him and his face frightened. Fishing
a dime from his pocket, he handed it to the
conductor "Here,n he said, 'take two out
of that" The conductor looked at him won
deringly. "Thats all right" he said; sits
you who are riding with me. can't play
