HINTS FOR CIGAR SMOKERS.
Don't Imagine That Light Colored Wrap
pers Always Cover Mild Weeds.

pers Always Cover MILO weeds.
Every one in any way connected with
the cigar trade knows that there are
fashions-or rather fads-in the colors
Of cigar wrappers. One year it is for
dark colors, another for medium and an
other for light colors.
The strength of the cigar does not
seem to make much difference, for in
years when light colors are fashionable
'claro" wrapper with colorado"
filler will sell more readily than ''colo-
RADIO" wrapper with a "claro" filler-we
define the Spanish words as does the
customer who thinks they denote the
strength of the tobacco. We believe we
can safely say that not one smoker in a
hundred knows what the words really
mean, yet many of the hundred use the
words in purchasing.
Dealers are better informed, for they
are aware that the words have nothing
to do with the strength of the cigar and
not much more with the color of the
wrapper, for what one dealer may call
colorado maduro" another will term
"colorado;" yet dealers when GUS
toner objects TO the color Of wrapper
will show the customer that the box is
marked colorado" colorado maduro,"
etc., as evidence of strength of the cigar.
At the present time the fashion is for
light colored wrappers, and as is always
the case the fashionable color is the
scarcest. Many cigar manufacturers
are now apportioning the light colors
to their customers, and if the fad con-
tinues to grow they will have to make
apportionment much smaller. 1t has
even been suggested that an extra price
be added per 1000 for the light colors,
which would certainly not suit the job.
Der or the retailer. The cigar manufac-
turer would willingly meet the demand
for the fashionable color, but he cannot
do it. He cannot give what he has not
or cannot get.
If the jobber and the retailer (es-
pecially the jobber) will enter upon an
educational campaign" this fad for
light colors can be easily and quickly
killed. The retailer can explain to the
customer that the color Of the wrapper
does not indicate the strength of the
cigar, and the packing of cigars of one
color in a box and so marking them is
more for uniformity than anything else.
He can also tell them that there is little
OF no difference when strength is con-
sidered between "claro" and "claro
colorado" colorado" and colorado
maduro," etc., for manufacturers differ
in making. Leaf.

A young married man, who is now
enjoying his first year of housekeeping,
wants to know why it is that green
grocers will always lie about their
melons. II have been searching for
some good muskmelons all this season."
said this young man, 'and l have
succeeded in finding one or two out Of
fifty. But there has been no time when
the green grocer who sold me the melon
did not assure me ON his honor that it
was of the finest quality. l have paid
extra prices for melons on the most
solemn assurances that they were choice
nutmegs, but when served on the table
they proved to be as insipid as a raw

A Life Full of Excitement.

A queer tramp woman, Betty Ann Ar
mold, is confined in the Central police
station at Dayton, o. She was arrested
for safe keeping, but will probably be
released and allowed to continue her
migratory life. She was born in Logan,
Hardin county, and when twenty-one
years of age was engaged to be married
to a farmer'of this valley. Her uncle
abducted her, and since that time,
twenty-five years ago, she has been on
the road constantly. Downing mems
clothes she easily secured a job as brake
man.
While crossing the river at Wheeling
she says the structure gave way and
precipitated the freight train crew into
the river. She was the only one that
escaped. Following the Ohio river she
arrived at Cincinnati, still in male attire.
She secured work on boat, the Daniel
Boone, and relates an exciting expert
ence in connection with this part of her
journey.
There were three wealthy passengers
on board destined for Pittsburg. On the
UlBuI dIleT lcdNlHB OluCluudll Two utBrO
boat hands murdered the three passen-
gers and after robbing them threw their
bodies into the river. She was threat
ened with death if she informed any one
of their action, and in terror of her life
she jumped over the side of the boat and
swan ashore. Several shots were fired
at her, but missed their aim, and Betty
escaped.
Gaining the shore she started back to
Cincinnati and roamed about for some
time. As evening approached she
sought the outskirts Of the city, where
she intended to sleep until morning.
She says she knew nothing of what hap
pened until she next found herself in a
Cincinnati medical college, where she
had been taken by body snatcher, who
had chloroformed her and sold her body
to students. She was at once released
ON gaining consciousness, but was
warned not to speak a word of what had
occurred.
Her life is filed with exciting Incl
dents-hairbreadth escapes.-Cincinnati

Fashionable methods do not always
commend themselves TO the common
sense Of everyday people, who are apt to
think more of comfort than of more
aesthetic considerations. At an "at
home" of a country gentleman's wife,
says an exchange, the footman was
called upon to do duty as butler.
He was much taken aback by the ex-
treme thinness of the slices of bread and
butter with which he had to serve the
guests. Finally, as he was passing the
plate to an old dowager for the third
lime, he remarked in very audible
whisper:
"If you slap three or four pieces to-
gether, mum, maybe you can get q

A NUMEROUS ASSAULT.
An Italian Boy Stabbed by a Negro
Boot Black.

An Italian boy about 10 or II years
of age was seriously cut in the back
last night at the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas depot by a negro boot
black named John Reagan. 1t is
claimed that the white boy called the
negro bad name and the latter
made at him with knife and cut him
to the cavity, under the left shoulder
blade, from which the blood flowed
freely. The negro ran and has since
evsded arrest, but the officers are on
his track and expect to apprehend
him in a short time.
The boy who was cut was conveyed
to his home on Seventh street. a
physician called in and his wound
dressed. The extent of his fpiury
could not be ascertained, but his
physician is of the opinion that the
wound is every serious, but not nee
essarily fatal.
