IN THE WRONG HOTEL.
Awkward Predicameut of American
Lady Through n Porter's RInnder.

Awkward Predicanlcnt OF an American
Lady Through a Porter's BIunder.
Most of us have at one time or an
other experienced the Inconvenience of
not being acquainted with the language
OF the country wherein one is travel
ing. One can, therefore, says the Lon
don Standard, symPathize with the
Washington lady whose misadventurc
while staying at AiX-les-Bains for the
benefit of her health has found its way
into print. The lacy in question took
the baths like most of the other visit
ors ut the health resort. The bath over,
the patient, as is known, is rapidly
dried, well enveloped in sheets and
blankets and conveyed back TO the
hotel in a species of sedan chair. On
reaching il he or she is laid into bed,
wound up in the blankets like a
mummy and, after being covered up
with yet additional blankets and a
quilt. is left to perspire for a certain
period, longer or shorter, according to
taste.
The American lady, an unmarried
woman, was but imperfectly acquainted
with the pronunciation of the French
language. and when, lately, after her
bath, she told the attendant to take her
to NO. II at the hotel des Princes" he
understood her to say the hotel de
France. There she was conveyed,
placed in bed in room eleven and left to
perspire. After awhile she removed
slightly the covering from her head to
perceive. with the utmost distress. that
she was in 4 strange bed, with no other
dress save her blanket and that al
around the room We're articles OF
clothing. etc, proving the occupant
thereof to belong to the opposite sex
The poor lady's state of mind may
easily be imagined.

CHANGE OF OCCUPATION.

When Coupled with Preoccupation Does
Not Always Bring Good Results
The young man had been a groom at
the riding school and had also been
employed at a sale stable, says a writer
in River and Driver. Still. the knowl-
edge that he had acquired at these
places did not serve him well now that
he was engaged as a clerk in a grocery
store on Sixth avenue.
One day n young lady came into the
store and asked the clerk if they had
any horseradish.
''Hossradish? I should say we have"
exclaimed the young man I'VE prob
ably have the most remarkable hoss-
radish in the Market" and he pulled
down bottle, covered with the dust of
ages, and rolled it along the counter.
Observe its gait" he continued, with
enthusiasm. There's n hoSsradish
that can recommend. There's an 4
No. family hossradish. / can warran
il to work anywhere. 1t will drag a
family carriage, on a heavy track, in
2:4O.'
The young lady looked at the clerk
with some astonishment. She wanted
the horseradish, however, and ventured
to ask if it was strong.
''Strong?' echoed the clerk; ''why,
it's as strong as a steam stump puller.
It's the strongest hosSradiSh that ever
looked through collar. You can take
it right out of your phaeton, after a
whirl around Central park, hitch il to
stoneboat and if it doesn't pull more
than a locomotive I'll knock it in the
head. Fact is, it's a heavy-6raught
hossradish, with the swiftness and en-
durance of Salvatore
Il meant to ask said the young
lady, somewhat confused, IF it is
sharp-does it bite?"
Bite? No; it's gentle as a sucking
dove; wouldn't bite the smallest child.
1t seems kind o sad like when il has to
take n bite in it's mouth. Oh, no; it
wouldn't bite n piece of molasses candy
And kick? You couldn't make that
hossradish kick if you tickled it with a
straw" and the clerk punched the bot
tie in the ribs as proof of its excellent
disposition.
The young lady did not seem entirely
satisfied with the recommendation and
took the bottle up to examine it more
closely. That's right said the af-
fable young man; ''look it over care
! fully. Examine it closely for ringbone,

Some Very Odd Fac,s About the Sumer-

bers, saws the Boston Transcript The
two most remarkable numbers in the
world are 3 and Z.
Tho numcral seven" says Mr. Kirk,

following have taken il from the Ara

Scriptures, either alone or compounded
with other words 1t seems favorite
numeral with the Divine mind, outside
as well as inside the Bible, as nature
demonstrates in many ways, and all the
other numerals bow to il. There is also
another Divine favorite, the number
three. the trinity. This is brought out
by a combination of figures that is
somewhat remarkable. 1t Is the six
figures 1857.
Multiply this by ., the answer is
2S5,714.
Multiply this by 3, the answer is
42s,571.
Multiply this by 4, the answer is
57l. i2S.
Multiply this by >, the answer is
714.2S5.
Multiply this by g, the answer is
s57,l42
Each answer contains the same fig
ures as the original sum, and no others,
and three of the figures of the sum re-
4 2 laa0H
showing that figures preserve the trinity.
Thus 2o5 appears III the first anG
second numbers, J7I in the second and
/ third, 42S in the third and fourth, and
142 in the fourth and fifth.
1T is also interesting to note that
taking out of any two of these sums the
| group of three common to both the
| other three, read in the usual order, from
J left to right, win also bc in the same
| order in both sums.
Take the first and second sums, for
| example. The group of 2S5 is common
TO both. Having read 2S5 out Of the
second sum, read right along and bring
/ in the first figure of the thousands last.
! It will read 7l4 All the others will
read in the same way.
Again, note that the two groups of
/ three in the first sum are the same as
| the two groups of three in the fourth
reversed in order, and the same thing is
/ true of the second and third. The last
multiplication has its groups of three
! the same as those of the original num-
ber, reversed again.
Examine these results again, and
you viii sec that in these calculations
all the numerals have appeared save
the nine. Now multiply the original
sum by the mighty the divine favor

that IT viii most likely increase the
