Simple Arithmetic.

A potato Dagger went into a Pittsburg
commission house one day and asked if
there was anything to do. Yes" re-
piled the proprietor, "a car load of po-
tatoes is waiting at the station to be
bagged. What will you do it for?" IA
cent a bushel. BOSS" Nov, I'll tell
you what I'll do. There are 900 bushels
in the car. I'll give you 80 for the
job The Dagger shook his head. "Ill
give you $40 to bag those 800 bushels"
mo, sir; a cent a bushel is my price,"
I'm make II ell. and that's us high as
I'll CO." Cant do it, boss. never
scabbed on potato bagging in my life,
and | won't begin now. My price is l
cent a bushel.' The Dagger started
out, when the proprietor called him
back again and said, "All right; I'll
give you your price" After the man
started to the station a ~bystander asked
the proprietor the meaning of the con-
versation. II just wanted to show you
something queer. That man won't work
unless he gets an even cent a bushel. He
can compute any other rate. When he
has a bushel bagged. he cuts a notch on
a stick, and that represents | cent. -

Tho Chinese Language"

A writer holds that "Chinese Ian
guage" is a misnomer. "There is" he
says, mo such thing as a Chinese Ian
guage any more than there is a European
language. A Canton man cannot under
stand an Annoy man, and ! have seer two
Cinnamon sitting together with a third
n acting as an interpreter. Pigeon
English is the common tongue of COM
merce. 1t has a vocabulary of less than
1000 words. but is sufficiently flexible to
answer any purpose" Were China but
an island or a series of islands instead OF
half of a large continent, and were thus
open on all sides to the omnipresent Ian
guage carrying British steamer, it is
within the bounds of probability that
pigeon English would ere now have re-
placed the national tongue to such an ex-
tent as to cause intense alarm to reign

Paris DandIes and British Laundries.
The legend about Partisan handles be-
ing in the habit of sending their linen to
be done up by the London clear starchers
has been exploded by a painstaking
searcher after the truth of things. M.
Paul Bourget, it appears, is responsible
for having spread such a report or at
least for having made one of his heroes
forward his linen to a blanchisseuse de
fin on the other side of, the channel. In
the play now running at the Gymnase
the son of the Duchess of Ferto-C arrari
complains of want of punctuality on the
part of his British blanchisseur (sic).
The patient investigator of truth has in
terviewed notable Partisan imitators of
English manners and fashions on the
matter, and not one of them, he says, fol-
lows the example of the person in the
play. The Due de Morny went SO far as
to say that it was the English who sent
their linen here in order to be done up a
Ia mode de Paris, where. blanchissage is
next door to a fine art. The Due de
Morny's statement was corroborated by
q prominent chemisier, who both sells
linen to London customers and keeps it
in order for them.-Paris Cor, London

Cripple Creeks Gold,

The discovery of gold at Cripple Creek,
Colo, has already become a matter of
legend. AS usnal in such cases, the
story has some very pretty qualities. A
young druggist from Colorado Springs
went prospecting back Of Pixies peak.
One day at noon, tired out, he sat down
on the top of Bull hill to eat his lunch.
For dessert he had some nuts which he
cracked with a stone lying at his feet.
In this stone he saw tiny particles Of
gold. The result was q claim and the
great Pharmacist mine Of today, which
yields $SO,O 900 worth of gold a month and
is the hopeof the gold mining interest in
America. Cripple Creek is less than two
years old and is reached only by stage
routes. 1t was not given much atten-
ton by Colorado prospectors until tho
bottom fell out of silver mining, but now
some Of the best miners in Colorado are
working its goldfelds with great energy.

Following q Prophet.

A false prophet has arisen on the island
of Jamaica. He teaches that God has
given him power to make a new Bethes-
da of a small river on the island. Ev-
cry Wednesday he stands on a rock in
the stream and blesses the waters, which
are then supposed to have the power of
healing any disease.
The natives are crazy in the fanatic
belief in the new prophet, and $4,000 Pill
