of ohensiveness OF any kind.

A Surprised Englishman.

81 was very much interested and
gratifed to-day" said an Englishman
visiting the city, "to meet by chance all
the officers of your army and navy in
one street car. Of course | do not
know, the occasion which brought them
together, but they were all in civilian
dress and seemed to be jolly lot of
good fellows"
When the Engllsnman said this
could scarcely restrain my astonlsh-
ment, SAYS writer In the st. Louis Re-
public. | had not heard of any cons i'd
cradle number of army or navy officers
being in the city at one time, and |
guessed that the visitor must have been
Iaboring under misapprehension of
some kind, but [ was too proud to adj
NIT it.
"Well-er," | said, hunting about for
clue, Il hope you will remember
their names SO as to give good account
of them"
UNFORTUNATELY" said he, 81 caught
but one of their names-that of your
commodore of the navy, Mr.. Smith,
whose white mutton-chop whiskers
and clustering good nature led me to
believe that he was an Englishmen in
disguise. All, you should be proud of
your commodore"
With this much as starter 1t did not
require an extraordinary amount of
genus to picture the scene to which
the Eng!ishman had been an interested
witness.
1t happened on a Washington Ave-
nue. car, which was well filled with bust
ness men, at Garrison Avenue, where a
short, thick, good-natured man mounted
the steps.
"Good morning, commodore"
Hello, colonel; how do you do this
morning."
why, captain; how are you?
Haven't seen you for day or two"
"Howdy, major; nice morning, isn't
it? Going to be delightfully."- wet
day."
"Wen, if there isn't the Judge. Good
morning, Judge. Glad to see you out
again"
But why continue the conversation
You recognize it as characteristic of the
daily ride downtown on any street car
of the city. And when you come to
analvze the various titles attached to
the bunch of business men, this is what
they amount to:
The 'judge" was once judge of cleo
ton; the commodore" had been an
iron merchant, and in that capacity
weighed an anchor; the colonel" was
on the governors military staff in time
of peace; the "major led the process
sion in front of Fourth of July band,
and the captain was a graduate Of the

The Trained Nurse.

"The resources of trained nurse are
astonishing" says a suburban woman
who has just had one during a case of
typhoid fever in her home. zone Sun
day during my husbands illness he
begged for ice cream, which the doctor
said he might have. We were mile
from the station, and as a rule have our
cream sent out from New York, but
there was no getting it on Sunday. I
said all this in despair, for to make ice
cream at home was question of hours,
as we had no ice house, and merely a
daily ice supply. The nurse left the
room smiling confidently. Wait she
said. I waited, and in less than twenty
minutes she returned with saucer Of
delicious strawberry cream.
''She then told me the process: She
had taken small tea cup of cream, to
which she had added two tablespoon
fuls of powdered sugar and little
strawberry juice pressed from half
dozen fresh berries; this she had
whipped to froth with an egg-beater,
and then poured into pint pail; COW
cred closely and set into a larger pail,
the space between filled with crushed
ice and salt. After turning few mo-
ments she opened the pail and scraped
of the cream frozen to its sides, then
recovered and continued the process
few minutes more. The result was the
saucer of pure ice cream, and thereafter
the patient had it morning, noon and
midnight if he asked for it."-Philade7-

The Poor Clerk.

On recent rainy Saturday it was
painfully dull in one Of the big retail
stores.
A clerk at the dress goods counter
wore dismal expression that even the
disagreeable weather could not account
for.
"Why this grewsome and sorrowful
ARP" one OF the department managers
inquired.
. "Triplets born at our house last
night" he walled, with a woebegone
look.
The department manager is kindly
disposed man, and he recognizes the
fact that triplets are a too bountiiul
bestowal of gifts for poor man to ap-
preciate.
He had been present at the clerk g
wedding some two years before, and
was really very sorry.
In the course Of the day he mentioned
the poor clerks misfortune to the firm,
and they headed a subscription list for
his relief. The manager passed the list
about the store and a considerable sum
was realized.
Full of benevolence he told the poor
clerk what he had done for him.
AS the triplets were q trio of diminu-
tive chickens that an old hen had
Matched that morning out of possible
thirteen, the poor clerk was duly thank
full.
And the department manager, when,
in the course of time he discovered the
fraud, was mad.-BoStOn Herald.

The "1resin

Cyclers will be interested in this talk
from the Baltimore Sun: cit was about
the year 1887" said William Boucher,
Jr., one Of our oldest and best-known
citizens, yesterday, ''that | visited Bar
on Won Tresel, a poor nobleman Of
Mannheim, in the grand Duchy of Bad
en-, my native place, and he showed me
q number Of his inventions, among
which was the bicycle.
The Baron was a great person for in
ventions. He spent all he had on his
projects, and was in very reduced cir
cumstances. Still he kept on with
them, living on but very little. His
midday meal consisted of piece of
bread and a small bit of sausage. Peo-
pie called him the crazy Baron.
Among his inventions was continuance
for snuffing out candle when it burned
down to the danger line.
This was for the benefit Of folks who
read in bed. But the bicycle was the
principle thing. The wheels were of
equal size, but had no pedals. The seat
rose up from the middle and could be
regulated like a piano stool. You sat
on that seat and propelled the machine
by striking the feet against the ground.

from falling off the other until [ learned
