The story is told of the late Pig Iron"
Kelley that on one occasion a young
woman, the daughter of an old Pennsyl-
vanian. who had been one of Kelley's
political Geutenants. applied to him for
position. which he promised to secure
for her the next day. On the following
morning, when the young woman called
on the judge, he had forgotten all abous
her case. but upon being reminded, apol-
ogized profusely and. told her to .scaIl
tomorrow. The judge kept this up for
nearly a month. when the young woman
lost her patience. On the occasion of
her last visit the judge. who was very
absentminded, did not catch her name
as the servant announced her presence
in the parlor and, walking hurriedly into
the room, shook hands with her and be-
gan the old formula.

An Enjoyable Way to Take Tea
There are people who get more out of
life than others by a sort of philosophy
of contrast or change. The listener,
being invited to tea not long since, found
the table set under the apple trees just q
few steps from the kitchen door. There
were several children seated about the
table, expressing by their demure manner
that it was not novel thing at ALL "Oh,
nor said the hostess: "we've hardly eaten
dinner or supper III the house for three
weeks If it's possible thing we set the
table out here or on the piazza at least.
There is only one disadvantage, it makes
it harder on the girls, but we all take
hold and help. so that they are as pleased
as we are"
1t was delightful to sit under the trees
that fiecked the table cloth with moving
shadows and seemed to add new flavor to
the simple food The house stood back
from the street of course, and yet if it
had been near the street there might
have been great gain for the passerby
1t would have given a touch of sociabil-
ity to the street, like that so character
istic of the French. who eat in public so
gracefully

France Making Heavy Purchases
of Food Products

CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-It is reported here
that the French government during the
last three weeks has been quietly pick
ing up an enormous amount of grain
and meats through its agents in this
country. The orders for flour are said
to amount to 100000 barrels, and for
grain to 25,000,000 bushels. The eXpla-
nation offered for the secret purchases
of the French government is that the
government is in delicate position in
regard to grain and meat in France.
Prices are high. and the demand for
removal of tariffs is pressing. but the
government does not like to directly let
down the bars. The threatening aspect
of European affairs gives it good eX-
cuse to provision itself strongly in adj
vance. But what is more impOr-
tant to the French government just now
is that. as the government supplies this
stuff, it will go free through the harbor
gates, and thus the French people can
be supplied at prices probably 25 per
cent less than Germany will have to pay
for %rain. and it is thought that cheap
bre..d for French people, as against dear
bread for the Germans, Will have all i'm
portant political effect. making the
French people enthusiastic in support
of their government,and causing great
deal of discomfort in Germany from
what will be deemed government OBJ

that of carrying concealed weap-

demurrerS were sustained yesterday,
