til the "fakir" can no longer prac-
tice his schemes upon an unsuspect-

Some time ago almost every
Black Hills publication received an
advertising proposition from Prof" !"
J. Vanderberg, of the LeaYenworth
Business College, Of Leavenworth,
Kan. The letters contained a three
inch single column display ad. for
that institution, with instructions to
insert same for three months and
send bill to Prof. Vanderberg.
This was done, and nearly every
publication in the Black Hills ac-
-cepted the ad. and lnser ted it as re-
quested. 70 "draw on" publishers
the letters containing the ad. asked
for quotations on more space. All
was furnished, and at the expiration
of contract bills were cent in prompt
ly, but no reply or remittance came
from the Leavenworth institution.
The letters were received at Leaven
worth, for they were not returned. al

dress on the envelope. Threee times
we wrote, sending bill (S3 50), and
no attention was paid to it. Other

FOOD FOR THOUGHT.

One drop of regret will embitter a
bucketful of bliss.
Vanity is a weakness, and may be a
sin.
We are rich only through what We
give.
Charity is as much of privilege as it
is duty.
Self respect-that cornerstone of all
virtue.
The sweetest joys are consoled sor-
rows.
Pleasure is the lard in the piecrust
of time.
There is no malice like the malice of
the renegade.
Foresight is very wise; but for sor-
row is very foolish, and castles are, at
any rate, better than dungeons in the
air.
True love is love of love, not love of
the pleasures of love.
There is no house so small that it has
not room for love; there is no castle so
large that it cannot be filled withit.
No man who needs monument ever
ought to have one.
Politeness is a very good substitute
for brains, and it has been known to
succeed where virtue and modesty have
failed.

Discovered

II. de SartineS, at one time chief OF
the police OF the city of Paris, was a
master Of his profession. The crimi-
nal to whom he gave his atte alton
was almost sure, sooner or later, to be
brought to justice.
An incident which illustrates the
thoroughness of his work is recorded,
reluctantly one may imagine, in the
Vienna police reports.
The chief CT the Vienna police wrote
to him describing a criminal who had
fed from Vienna and taken refuge in
Paris, and requesting Sartines to dis
cover and seize the fugitive.
Sartines gave his orders for search
for the man. Two months passed.
Then he wrote the Vienna officer:
Il have sought the criminal you
described on all sides, and for long
time in vain. But at last the efforts
of my agents are rewarded. We have
founu the man.
"He is in Vienna, which city he
has not left at all. You will dnd him
at Fauburg X, Number Sc There
is flower pot in his window"

In the Chinese language the same
word may he given several different
meanings By the meditation of the
voice. TIE same thing may happen
to the English yes" which may
be pronounced so as to mean Il as
sent to that" or Il am doubtful" or
"Indeed!' Professor Max Muller, in
his Lectures on the Science of Ian
gdage' gives an amusing illustration
of these mOdulationS in the Anna
mitic language, a mOnoSyllabic tongue
spoken by the people Of TOnQuin and
Cochin China.
In this language the syllable "ba, "
pronounced with a grave accent,
means a lady, an ancestor. Pro
nounced with the sharp accent, it
means the favOrite of a prince. Pro-
nounccd with the semi-grave accent,
it means what has been thrown away.
Pronounced with the grave circumfiex,
it means what is left of a fruit after
the juice has been squeezed out. Pro-
nDunccd with no accent, it means
three. Pronounced with the ascend
ing or Interrogation accent, il means
Il box on the ear.
Thus "Ba ba ba ba" is said to mean,
if properly pronounced, Three ladies
gave box on the ear to the favorite
of the prince"

The vibrometer is a newly invent.
ed instrument for the cure of deaf
ness. The principle of its operation
is the massage of the sound, conduct
ing apparatus Of the ear by means of
vibratory forces. By this method vari-
Gus conditions can lie relieved which
could not be reached by the regular
modes of treatment, and which are
the principal causes of deafness in a
very large proportion of those afflict-
ed. The photograph has been used
for this purpose, and although its
adaptation was effected in a very
comparatively crude manner, the re-
suits attained justified the belief that
an instrument embodying special i'm
provements on the same lines would
be Of the utmost value. Such an in
strument is the vibrometer, and so
successful has been it application
that many persons whose deafness
was from five to fifteen years stand
ing can now, through its use, hear
ordinary conversation from ten to
twenty feet away with their backs
turned to the speaker, and others
with never-ceasing noises in their ears
have been completely relieved.

! looking over the F box so that FIossIs
should have her letter if possible A
moment or so later he smiled quite
tenderly and handed out a letter bear
ing Flossie's name on the envelope,
postmarked Washington, which the
tramp put in his pocket very carefully
and carried away.
Hes a hard-looking customer"
remarked the clerk, sympathetically,
"but he isn't all bad, and somewhere
there is little girl waiting for him,
as dear to him as my little girl is to
me-"
On the outside of the Office the
tramp met his partner and at once
they hurried of to an alley.
well, !Cu said you were goin' 10
surprise me, :" said the partner, when
they had reached a sheltered place,
now what is it,"
Gimme a chance" replied the
first one taking out the letter and
opening it.
"Sassafras and tar" exclaimed the
partner as two one dollar bills and
some change fell out, where did it
come from?"
From the Lord, Bill" was the
solemn reply.
Rats" growled William. "Give
US the racket. How'd you git it?
Some of yer rich kin die and leave it
TO you or how"
The first tramp grinned all over.
'Got it frum the Lord, 1 tell yer"
he persisted. you've heerd Of the
dear little girls in Sunday-school story

The other one nodded assent.
"And when it gifts round TO the
dead-letter office" the first one went
on, ''and the tender-hearted clerks
opens it and gets on to what it calls
fer they chip right in, bless their
kind souls, and send the dear little
girl more than enough money TO sup
ply her wants, besides strcugthenin'
her faith in religion. See?'
His partner not only saw, but he
laughed the laugh of success.
This letter l got was that kind ot
one" resumed the old sinner, "and
sweet little Flossie Franklin wrote
it"
"Who'se Flossic?" inquired his
partner
I'm little F}os>ic," he answered
with a smile.

they were certainly the means OF say.
ing my life.
Skilled Fingers.

in feudal times, when gentlewomen
were forced to lead isolated and mo-
n0toaous lives, the embroidery of rich
stuTs, and fine needlework of all
kinds, was their favorite occupation.
The unhappy Mary Stuart possessed
rare skill in this direction, and had
ample leisure to apply it during her
eighteen years of captivity. No
glimpse of her life brings her more
favOrably before the mind than the
scene in which she is described as
seated in her room in Fotheringay
Castle. surrounded by her women, she
and they alike engaged on some won
derful embroidery intended as a gift
to the sister queen who held her as a
prisoner. Gowns, tunics, gloves, gir-
dies, mantels-all were profusely
decorated in those days. Noblemen
wore their coatS-of-arms embroidered
on their breasts; heraldic animals
played an important part in dress
OrnameltatiOn, and an old French
chrOnicler i'll the fourteenth century
grayely notes the fact that pair Of
shoes with lions wrought on the toes
formed u necessary adjunct of the at
tire Of every well-dressed gallant.
Mems dress equalled that of wo-
man in magnificence and variety OF
hue. Magnus, a French king of the
twelfth century, had crimson silk
lions embroidered on his trunks; and
i noted French gallant a couple of
hundred years later, appeared at
court in tunic, on the sleeves Of
which were worked the words and
music Of song then very popular, the
first line of which ran: Madame, l
am more joyous" Tie notes of the
music were composed of some six
hundred pearls. In the South Ken
SingtOn Museum, u veritablc store
house Of priceless relics, there is pre-
served white linen jacket literally
covered with fine silk embroidery in
gorgeous tints, and this very snowy
Article was intended for masculine
wear Indeed, the male love Of orna-
ment and color remained almost un-
checked until this practical century
had nearly reached its majority.
Even now, most men are glad to per-
NIT themselves some license in color
when possible. Our gilded youth
have been laughed at for their love
OF tlnery in the matter of silk shirts
and gay hOuSe-jackets, but it seems
to me foible which on many ac-
counts their sisters and sweethearts
would do well to encourage, and with
the work of nimble fingers assist in
the qualification of a pardonable
weakness
