GIrls Arc Afraid of Candy NOW.

If there is anything in this great and
glorious republic of ours that girl likes
better than any other one thing it is candy.
Even the young man who unwillingly
yields the major portion of his salary TO
her in the purchase of it can't hold a can
die to this sweet competitor, He pnts, as
it were, a rival in the field to steal away
his gains. He hates to do it, too, worse
than he hates to get up at Z a. m, after
sitting up until II or 10 a. m. helping her
to eat it. He hates it not only because il
is his rival, but because he knows that the
manufacturer is making about 10000 per
cent. net on every pound that is sold, Cupid
or no Cupid.
OF course, in these figures reference is
had to these candies that come in tucks
and frills and satin boxes and bags, which
are the only brands a veteran candy girl
will accept. But the young mans turn
has come now, and the candy manufac-
turer will have to suck a pebble for sweet
enin' while the young man grins
The girls are scared, and they won't eat
candy any more, because last week New
Jersey young woman on visit to Wash.
ington, received a box of candy from her
"beau" as she was leaving the national
capital to nibble on daintily as she hustled
homeward. She got home before the box
was emptied, and then she hit it again.
But it was one time too many, and the APP
parently succulent, saccharine and sincere
chocolate drop in its sober suit of brown
exploded with terrific force in her mouth
and blew pearly teeth, and jaw bone splin-
tiers, and rosy cheeks, and dimpled chin,
and cherry lips, and peachblow skin all
over the town of New Horeb and clear out
into the suburbs.
Nobody who saw the dreadful sight had
the slightest idea that there was so much
in chocolate drop of the regulation di-
mansions, but there was, and the girl got all
out of it that could be got in the brief time
at her disposal. OF course report of the
accident-not the chocolate drop-new all
over the telegraph wires and dropped into
the homes of the fair in every state and
now the young girls won't touch candy,
even though the young men swear it isn't
loaded, which they are not in any hurry to
do.-New York Truth.

The erection Of an immense gas holder
said to be the largest in the worlds now
under way for the East Greenwich station
in London Some idea of the magnitude
of the structure may be obtained when it
Is stated that it will have a capacity of 49,
0,000 feet of gas; that it will be 300 feet
in diameter, with an altitude of $50 feet
when at its full height; that its total
weight will be 1920 tons, of which 1,S40
tons will be of wrought iron, 60 tons of
cast iron and 800 tons of steel, and that it
will require | 200 tons of coal to fill it with
gas. For the reception of the gigantic gus
ometer n concrete tank 1903 feet in diameter
and 81 feet inches deep has been made, at
cost of SIS, 900, the greater part of the
work having been done by the stokers, who
would otherwise have been discharged

the holder alone-its manufacture erection

As Strange as a Romance.

These are days of great and surprising
financial boosts.
Twelve years ago young man lived in q
Maine town. His parents were poor, so
poor that they required help from the
town. The young man himself was Grip
pied by rheumatism, was discouraged, and
instead of hustling for the wherewithal
spent his time in idlenes3 and fishing. For
several years he, too, was supported by
contributions from relatives and the town
fathers. The current belief was, "He will
never amount to anything"
Well did he? He cut loose from his
home and associates, borrowed enough
money to carry him to Massachusetts,, and
struck in for fame and fortune with all the
vim and grit for which thoroughly avak-
ened Maine boys are famous.
That was twelve years ago. Today he
can draw mis- check for 500, 600, and unless
indications are amiss will be a millionaire
within five years. He is one of the leading
shoe manufacturers in Brockton, Mass,
and every dollar of his fortune was won by
his own endeavors. He has made a pres
ent of handsome new school house to his
native town. He still owns and pays taxes
on the old home place, and there isn't q
man in town but who is proud to point out
the house to strangers and tell the story of
the man who has made a big bright mark
in the bustling world.-Lewiston Journal

Germans began drinking water during
the Seven Years war Q756-63) stolidly
scoffed at opposition to the practice, and
hated Napoleon all the more for restricting
it by his Continental Blockade" Uni
versal peace was accompanied by universal
indulgence in the exhilarating cup. Ameri-
cans took kindly to its contents, and by
constantly enlarging demand impaired
powerful impetus to coffee commerce and
culture. Rise in prices during the great
civil war diminished the consumption

for that it is asserted that "the world
would not have had coffee enough"
