In different parts of the world different
mushrooms are selected for eating, varying
greatly in flavor and other qualities. Here
the field mushroom seems most in demand,
as only few experts ever 60 outside of
the one individual species. In gathering
mushrooms care should be taken and abso-
lutely no doubt should be allowed to ex
ist as to the identity Of the species collect
ed. Experience not only proves the dan
ger incident to mushroom gathering, but
it always shows the perfect ease with which
the proper fungus can be identified even
by children.
The story cf the man, the bar tender
and the $l0-$1 bill. The man was a well
dressed, respectable looking fellow, and
when he went into the bar to get drink
and had with him several companions, ell
jovial and hearty. When each had irri-
gated his interior with his faYorite liquid
the man threw out ten dollar bill in pay
ment to the bar tender, who laid it on the
shelf back of the bar and carefully count
ed out the change which he handed the
man. Then the party went out into the
W ide, wide world. An hour afterwards,
when the bar tender was closing up shop,
he counted his cash. He was 50 short
He counted it again. He was 50 short.
then he reversed the pile of bills he had
and again counted. This time he was all
right. Strange that he should make mis-
take twice and come out all right the third
time. He would count again, and he did.
Again he was short 50. But where was
that $40 billl He examined each one care
| fully and found the cause ofhis mystifca-
ton. The man had given him bill which
said $40 on one side and 81 on the other,
| and he had given change FOR $40, of course.
The swindler had adroitly split $40 bill
and 81 bill and pasted half of each to-
| gether SO adroitly that the trick could not
be detected except by the merest chance.
He had SO out of 100 chances to win, and
he must have reaped harvest. Experts
| in the bank who saw it declared it to be
as clever piece of work as ever came un-
| der their notice.
