on his own ground and she appeals to his
rational senses in a way which is simply
irresistible to one who is not a plumb
idiot on the subject of womankind.
Widows can marry easily If they care
to, can't they}
Easy as falling off log.
Why is thatl
Because they are not afraid to do lit
tie of the counting themselves.
Isn't that an awful thing to say2
Truth isn't at all times pleasant.
They are not forward and eager, are
they2
Oh, no; sly and demure. AS 1 said be-
fore, they know men.
They don't always succeed in getting
the one they waut2
! No; but where they fail once the maid
fails dozen times
Are husbands who succeed other hus-
bands quite as well satisfied as if they had
been the first choice?
AS rule they are better satisfied, for
man and wife in this case are older and
more sensible; and if they will only give
each other a fair chance, they get along as
nicely as two bees in a honeysuckle
Do widows make better wives than they
were at first?
The chances are they will improve on
themselves.
Every man ought TO marry WldOWI
then, oughtnt he7
Yes but the demand exceeds the sup
ply.
How is it when they have children1
Children are deduction.
Why?
When they are small they are in the
mans way; and when they are not, he is
in their way.
Aren't rich widows a most pleasing
feature in the social landscapel
They are, indeed
Why more than rich maids?
The widow usually has the wealth
where she can lay her own hands on II,
without waiting for somebody to die and
leave it in reach.
Do women like to be widows2
Ask some wives who are not.

The Sun has compiled some interesting sta
stistics about the tea and coffee consumed in
this country. 1t appears that as tea drinkers
are not success, nothing like the tea-bi0bers
that our English cousins are: and what IS
more remarkable stin our imports, per cap,
ita fell of steadily from 1888 to 1892, and
though they increased in the latter year they
did not get up to the figures of 1888 As
coffee drinkers, however, we are an enormous
success, and in the last five years our annual
coffee imports have increased three pounds
per capita. In other words we imported last
year 623 769, 056 pounds of coffee, which is go4
pounds for every man, woman and child IN
the country and worth sl25 .3s7, 720. OF tea we
imported S9.6l9,74l pounds, which is L9l
pounds per capita. and worth Si4. l67.4ll. IL
is little wonder that we are a nervous ana
bad complexioned race. il we add 10 the
7l4,J0J00 POUNDS OF temperance beverage
imported in solid form the amount of water
that transforms it into liquid we have SUI
hoienty startling result-especially II inc
per capita consumption is increased as 10
should be, by emitting infants small chll-
dren and those who, from necessity or choice,
do not take one Of the beverages Doctors
say that we live on our nerves, and our
nerves live on tea and coffee.

AN UNCANNY YOUTH.
Frank Davies Makes the City Too
Warm to Hold Him.

About month ago a rather smart-looking
boy came TO this city from Watsonvile. He
obtained a situation in JohnStOne's restaurant
on Kearny street and proved himself as smart
as his looks indicated. He nlled the position of
general utility" in the restaurant, and for a
time all went well.
The employees were lodged In the upper part
OF the building, and it was not long before some
of them were frightened out of their wits
almost by all appaiition appearing at the bed
room windows. II appeared that young Davies,
who. by the way, has strain of Indian blood
IN his veins, being nimble as a ca, skipped
along the ledge outside the windows and de-
ported himself In manner perhaps enjoyable
TO himself but scarcely calculated 10 comfort
those who saw dark form prancing on six
inch sill outside their windows. What the lads
purpose was may be inferred from what alter
ward happened.
couple OF days ago this promising youth
had some words with the cook OF the establish
ment, and the same night he mysteTiously dis
appeared. All hands, including the proprietor
were rather pleased than Other wise, for the
manners OF the tricky yOuDgster savOred OF the
uucanny. Ii a door were locked he would
spring through the transom in less time by far
than II took TO find the key. and altogether he
proved an uncongenial fellow TO have around,
TO say the least.
On Tuesday morning, when ii was found that
Frank had gone, mutual congratulations were
for a time III order. A little later, however,
howl went up. gold filled watch. valued at
500, few odds and ends OF personal effects
and some loose change had disappeared with
him. PuncliliOus in his methods the lad left
letter for the cook, against whom he appears to
played close and ultimate knowledge of bib
licdl language.

SALOMON FINED.
Judge Morrow Decides That Pre-
MUM Bonds Are Lotteries.

In the United States District Court yesterday
Judge Morrow in sentencing M. Solomon Of
premium bond fame declared that the premium
bond business was only lottery scheme, and
that the United States mails could not be used
for the dissemination of the advertisements OF
the So cali ed bond brokers.
Salomon was convicted by jury of having
mailed at various times advertisements for the
sails OF premium bonds. He appeared yester-
day for sentence, and through his counsel made
motion Tor new trial on the ground that The
defendant had shown his circulars to a deputy
pos master. who had said they were not of
nature 10 come within the law prohibiting the
use OF the mails for the distribution of lottery
adyertis ments.
Judge MORROW said that even if the PoStmas-
ter-GeDeial had so construed the law, IL would
make no difference, as the circBlars did come
within the law. but In view OF the fact that
SalOmon was acting under the advice men,
TONED he punished him by fine of only $25.
