eLUFFED THE GROCERYMAN.

The Meek Little Mans Rebuke Was Effect.
i've 1. Somewhat Grandiloquent.
He was such a weak and humble lit
tie man that when he came into the
grocery store to make complaint the
clerk was disposed to be naughty and
1mperious.
''May / inquire" he said, in a still,
small voice, 'if any gentleman here
sold my wife some butter yesterday"
81 guess am the man." responded a
big, brawny fellow, with an inch or
two more chin on him than clerk usu-
ally has need of in his business.
"Oh, excuse me-" exclaimed the Gus
toner, shrinkingly, 81 meant 10 offense.
say that three colors Of hair in one roll
is somewhat homogeneous. And thought
I might add also request that if you
could send up brush and comb with
the next sale we would be ever SO much
obliged. Of course it was an oversight
on your part, and am not complain
ing, you UNDERSTANDINGS complaining,
merely suggesting"
The clerks face was study.
"And," went on the little man, 81
don't think it is quite fair to put tacks
at fifteen cents a pound in butter at
forty cents, unless you make discount
for difference in weight and price, or
throw in a clawhammer so we can draw
the tacks upon putting the butter on
the table"
The clerk was gasping and the little
man was going right along.
Referring again to the hair men
toned previously" he said, permit me
to say that 1 find no fault because of it's
quantity or its length. The incongru-
ity of color was the only objection. In
the old times we read that Sampson
had long hair and a great deal of it,
and your butter in that respect has
rights my entire family is bound to re-
spect. Our only regret is that you did
not send it up in cage"
By this time the clerk had fallen up
against the counter, but the little man
paid no heed.
81 might possibly" he continued,
mildly and weakly, touch upon its
age, but I have some reason to suspect
that the milk came from a cow and
that cow is female, and ! have been
taught from my youth up to abstain
from any and all references to age in
relation to female kind, either remotely
or continuously. Therefore l shall not
animadvert upon that subject, except
to remark, incidentally that the phrase,
feeble old age does not in the remot-
est degree apply to this case. 1 wish
you'd send up to the house a pound of
soda, four bars of soap. package Of
starch, a bushel of apples and twenty
five pounds of sugar. My wife asked
me to leave the order and she said
she'd come around herself and see
about the butter. Good morning" and
the little man walked meekly. out

a CONGREGATION OF GODS.
Hosts of Bfvirities in an Ancient Japane
Temple.

Hosts of Bfvirities in an Ancient Japanese
Temple.
Among the grand monuments OF
buddhism to be seen at Japan's ancient
capital of Kyoto, perhaps the most i'm
pressive is the temple Of San-iu-san-
gen-do or the SO, 1873 gods. It's facade,
SS9 feet in length, is partly closed by
enormous shutters swung from above,
and the dimness of the light admitted
adds to the sombre solemnity of the
spectacle within. This represents one
half of the grea company of idols; all
images of the eleven-faced, thousand
handed Kwannon, the popular goddess
OF mercy.
There are in this portion Of the great
silent congregation 500 figures, five feet
high, each distinctly visible in their
eleven-tiered gallery; similar array
occupies, in line with this, the other
half of the building; in the center is a
huge altar, surmounted by a giant
Kwannon, surrounded by her twenty
eight attendants.
The total number of 33, 333 is obtained
by including the smaller effigies on the
foreheads and haloes, and in the hands
of the full-sized divinities. Though all
of the latter represent the one goddess,
no two have the same ARA ngement of
hands and oh jects held in them. Ae-
cording to tradition, the head of the
great central Kwannon contains the
skull of a Mihado, who, tortured bv
headache, was informed by a monk that
the skull belonging to his BODY in a
former existence lay at the bottom of a
river, attached to the root of a willow
tree, the shaking whereof when the
wind blew, occasioned his majesty's
frequent suffering; which ceased when
the skull was transferred to its present
exalted depository.
Here as in all other temples of the an
cdent capital of Japan, the costliness
and perfect preservation of the edifce,
and the devoutness of priestly officials
and passing worshipers, were remarka-
bic A striking instance of the peoples
high esteem for their sanctuaries was
the offering of women's hair, forming
the ropes used by workmen in rebuild
ing the temple of Higashi- Hong-wan-ii,
the largest in the land A coil of cord
age several inches in span was piled on
the unfinished flooring; it weighed TO-
GOO pounds, and was more than 1000
feet in length; similar quantity had
been already used. We were not sur
prised to learn that, notwithstanding
the readiness wherewith many Japan
csc, with characteristic national versa
tility, have adopted the western reIi-
glon, outbreaks of Buddhist opposition
TO Christian work still occur-Quiver.

Children Cry for Pitchers Castoria:

The coming Grand Army enca mpmen
at Washington in September promises to
be the largest ever held, and more old
soldiers will be in line than at any time
since the close of the war. Particular in
terest is being aroused from the fact that
the G. A. R., have never visited Washing
ton since the grand review just before be-
ing mustered out to service. TO add to
the enjoyment of the encampment series
of very cheap excursions have been ar
ranged to Richmond and the historic bat
tlefeld of Virginia.
AS tickets will be sold to Washington
| with limit of Oct, 18th returning it will
enable parties to make good long visit in
the east and start home in time to stop in
Chicago and take in the worlds fair dedi-
cation ceremonies which will occur Oct,
18th and 18th. At the same time there
will be an encampment and grand review
of the national guards from every state
ia the union. 1t being estimated that
there will be $1,000 militia in line.
The G. A r. of Southwestern Kansas
are already talking up the trip and Mr.. j.
r. Mcmillan and H. d. Heiserman are or
ganizing a party. Through chair cars
and sleepers will run from Wichita with
out change and Pullman tourist sleeping
cars have been chartered both for the trip
and for sleeping quarters during the stay
in Washington. The expense of the latter
will be only 75c per day for double berth
which can be occupied by two people if
preferred, The fare will be cheap and il
you want to join the crowd address the
gentleman above named who will reserve
sleeping car accommodations and give
you all the information possible. ATT

GLOVE VICTIMS.
Over-Indulgence In the Condiment II
Often Fatal.


Often Fatal.
A physical wreck from eating cloves.
Odd as it may seem to the non-profes-
sional person, this condition is not at
all uncommon in those who carry this
foolish habit to excess
Comparatively harmless as is the
use of cloves in the beginning, says the
New York Journal, the system soon
feels craving for the stimulating eff
feet produced by them, and slowly and
insidiously the habit grows until they
become as much an absolute necessity
to the victim as does brandy to the dip
somaniac or opium to the morphine fend.
1t is in their supposed harnalessness
that the danger Of acquiring the Glove
habit lies Schoolgirls, whose taste
has been perverted by over-indulgence in
sweets, turn naturally to the spice can
lister in search of change for the
organs of taste with the almost inyaria-
BILE result that they finally discard the
candies for the pungent little bud.
The habit once acquired, the uncon-
scious victim begins to find that what
was once pastime has now become a
necessity, and instead of being satisfied
with small quantity, as at first, two
or three ounces day are found neces-
sary to satisfy the systems craving.
Then follows gradual but certain
breaking down of the constitution, be-
ginning at the nerve centers, which fin
ally brings the victim to a pitiable con-
dition

The Providence news. (Providence [R.I.]) 1891-1906, 1892-07-11

July relating to the lease of the Spring
field road seems to be one of those spora-
die attempts on the part Of certain ones
to delay and hinder those whom they do
not like. The validity of the lease can
scarcely be questioned regardless Of the
methods which may have been used by
individual members of the board of di-
rectors to secure 1t.
The crop conditions continue favor
ably. Kansas reports the largest wheat
crop on record and prospects of a simi-
lar corn crop. Pig iron has been weaker,
still has advanced. Cotton goods in fair
demand with excellent fall trade pro-
bable, prints are advancing and cotton
weakening. Boots and shoes are active
and wool similar.
The failures for the past week were
15s as compared with 10 last week and
22S last year. The bank clearings last
week aggregated 81, lao, 600, 900, an in
crease of II per cent.
