A very swell looking, middle aged
man, apparently every inch of what is
termed man Of the world, entered q
Broadway car coming down town re-
Gently at Thirty-fourth street. When
the conductor came for his fare the swell
looking, middle aged man addressed him
very politely, saying:
Kindly let me know when we reach
the Fifth Avenue hotel"
The car rolled along. The street cross
ing leading to the entrance Of the Fifth
Avenue hotel was reached, and the car
was brought to q halt by the conductor.
The swell looking, middle agedman was
sitting sideways gazing out upon the
beauties Of Madison square.
Fifth Avenue hotel"' the conductor
shouted in the door.
The swell looking, middle aged man
bolted around in his seat and began to
stare at the big hotel
Fifth Avenue hOtel" shouted the
conductor again, coming into the car
Then, as the swell looking, middle aged
man did not move, he added somewhat
testify, Here is the Fifth Avenue hotel,
sir; are you going to get out?"
why, no, responded the swell look
ing, middle aged man, supposedly. 81
only wanted to see the hotel. Heard so
so much about it, you know"
The passengers laughed in spite of
themselves, and the conductor went
back to his station and jerked the bell
strap vicIously.-New York Times.

To find guinea nest was the very
poetry Of egg hunting. The creatures
are half wild, and feed far afeld. The
bush pasture was their chosen haunt,
and had such store Of hidden hooks, such
clumps Of brake and briar, sucn steep
grassy banks, such tangle of sedge and
dewberry and plum thicket, that we
would never have found an egg but for
the birds queer habit. When the hen
goes to the nest her mate stands guard
over her on the nearest bare spot, and
fills the air with his harsh buzzing cry.
Following the sound, we came upon
the pair. Madam chooses her home
daintily, and deeply hoIlows the clean,
dry earth of it. Flowers often nod above
it, grass is sure to spring greenIy about
the edge. Overhead is always shelter of
some sort, for the maker knows instinc-
lively that sunshine will addle her pre-
cious eggs. Her small cousin, the par
fridge, so admires her taste that some
times she decides to share the nest.
Sometimes, too, hen of Independent
mind comes a-grasshoppering into the
bush pasture, and puts her eggs into
such shelter Very often we found forty
eggs to the nest. And when we took
them out it was always with a silver
spoon. Black nanny taught us, EFF
yer puts han in dar, de guineau smell
it an quit de nes'." Whatever the rea-
son, the fact was none the less fact

The wine expert is man born with
such a keen sense Of smell and taste that
he is able to take different wines and
find in one a trifie too much acid, an
other is too thick, still another is too
thin, and so on. After looking them all
over he is able to blend them together
and make a clean, full bodied, palatable
wine. Almost any ordinary man with
good horse sense" can learn the me-
chanical part of winemaking, but when
it comes to getting wines through their
fermentation without disease, preparing
them for the bottle-what we call
finishing expert wine faster is re
quired. Such men, abroad, earn from
$1,000 to $4,000 a year, and some of them
even larger salaries; in this country they
receive from $1,000 to $500 per annum.

A black cat called Downward, who
lives at Monreux, has learned how to
open the door. You know, no doubt
that the Swiss door handles are different
from ours, going up and down. Bon
inward found by jumping on the handle
he could open the door. There is also in
this house a gray cat, who is a great
friend Of his. One day Peter was out
side, and mewed to come in: his mistress
was busy writing, and took no notice;
Peter became more urgent; Bonni-
ward, who was asleep on chair, raised
his head and listened, and seeing
Peters wants still unattended to he
got up, walked across the room, opened
the door and admitted his friend.

No pen can adequately describe the
appearance Of the Kimberley mine. 1t is
the largest hole made by man, and in the
shortest space of time, for the incentive
to work was there-the diamond. A
spectator standing on the edge looks
down and sees men at work looking like
ants in size, and during the blasting
hours he can in perfect safety witness
the explosion of thousands of pounds of
dynamite and note the rending Of masses
Of blue and rock, which would fall far
below him.
AS an honor to the late ''Chinese Cor
don" when he visited the mines, the
writer saw the Kimberley mine illumin-
ated at night with thousands of impro-
vised lamps, assisted with colored fires
and displays of fireworks. The weird
effect produced was grand, for the eye
could not properly measure distance at
night, and the twinkling lamps but
served to heighten the effect.-Engineer-
ing Magazine.

The Bank OF France is a remark&
institution in many ways" said L6
G. Carroll, a broker Of New York, ''6ut
in no way is it more remarkable than in
the manner in which it guards the vaults
in which its great stores Of gold and sill
yer are kept. The Bank of France gen
orally carries more gold and always
more silver than any other institution in
the world, with the solitary exception Of
the United States treasury. But even
the latter does not take such precautions
to prevent thieves from breaking in and
stealing. We confide in bolts and bars,
but while the Bank of France bal com
plete system Of these, it does not deem
them sufficient and adopts a very pecul-
lar means for insuring the security of
its treasures.
Every day when the money is placed
in the vaults in the cellar a lot of ma
sons are on hand and wall up the doors
with hydraulic mortar Water is then
turned on and kept running until the
cellar is flooded. Thus burglar would
have to provide himself with diving
suit and break down a cement wall be-
fore he could begin work on the vaults
When the officers arrive in the morning
the water is drawn off, the masonry
broken down and the vaults opened. 1t
is difficult to imagine how the most ex-
pert burglar would penetrate all these
defenses, and certainly the treasures Of
the Bank Of France are better guarded
than any in the world. st Louis Post

A Very Sly Fox.

Many stories told Of the crafty fox are
doubtless incidents Of the imagination.
But a recent writer tells an anecdote
which, though taxing belief, he says is
vouohed for by an eye witness of the
affair. Some fishermen on the west coast
ii Ireland We're in the habit Of going to
= small island, few hundred yards
from the mainland, in quest of bait
The island was inhabited by large
numbers of rabbits, and could be reached
at low tide by wading, the water there
being only few inches deep. One
morning they went in their boat quite
early, it being high tide, and on landing
saw dead fox lying on the beach. The
fur of the animal was all bedraggled,
and he seemed to have been drowned.
One of the men, remarking that his skin
was worth something, pitched him into
the boat. Procuring their bait they re-
turned to the mainland, and the man
who had possessed himself of the fox
seized him by the tail and flung him on
shore.
As soon as the animal struck the beach
he picked himself up with considerable
agility for a dead fox and shot off like a
flash up among the cliffs, while the men
stood staring at each other in mute as
constituent. The men concluded that
he had crossed over to the island during
the night, when the tide was low, in
search Of rabbits, and finding in the
morning that he was cut off from the
mainland counterfeited death, with the
expectation Of thereby procuring a pass
age to the shore in a boat. an expecta-
ton which was fully realized. Boston

The Greathead Underground system.

INC NtSalhSau Underground system.
The cars are supplied with longitudinal
seats, lighted by electricity, and luxuri-
onsly cushioned, the passengers facing
one another The locomotive is an electric
motor, picking up its electricity from
central rail through which the electric
current is conducted by copper wire;
and lnasmuch as for each track, there is
a separate tunnel only Il trihe larger than
the train (Which fills almost the whole of
the annular space except only at sta
uons). each train acts as piston, driving
out, from station to station, the air
through which the preceding train
passed.
The stations are connected with the
open air and are not more than three
quarters Of mile apart; any foul air
which gathers in the tunnel is thus ex-
PEELED by each passing train. Indeed,
the air in the tunnel Is of more equable
temperature, and is kept more constantly
moved and freshened, than the air on the
surface; and frequently on dark and
murky days it has been noticed that the
air and atmosphere, strange as it may
appear, 60 far more pleasant in the tun-
mel than on the street surface.-Simon
Sterne in Forum.

Why do we attain certain size and
weight of body and then cease to grow?
Why is one person limited in stature to
a few inches while another stretches up
several feet? Why is it that one at ma
turity weighs not above fifty pounds and
another attains weight ten times as
great? These are all questions Of growth
