The yalue of Minutes.

A party of ladies and gentlemen were lately visiting large carpet manufactory, and the manager took them over the different floors of the establishment On ascending one of the staircases they came to locked door, on which the following inscrip. tion was painted in white letters. Strangers not admitted under any circumstances" The curiosity of the ladies was excited to high pitch. ana they inquired, almost in one breath: "Whatever is to be seen inside?' That is one of our workrooms, in which one hundred and fifty women are employed in embroider,ng car pets," answered the manager "Oh! how we should just like to have peep at themr exclaimed the ladies. q am sorry 1 cannot comply with your wish, said the gentleman, with a shrug of his shoulders, but our rules do not admit of the slightest exception Truth to say, there is nothing special to be seen, nor is there any question of trade secrets, The reason why admission is forbidden to stran- gers IS simply because every woman naturally looks up, and her attention is distracted from her work for from one to five minutes, Supposing, now, each woman wastes a couple of min utes in this way, that will make in the case of ore hundred and fifty women a loss to the firm of three hundred min utes, or five hours and we cannot al- low that t"-Avonblad

The youth in white flannel shit, rus set shoes, albino pink shirt and pan cake hat was doing his first time at a summer resort hotel, and he had as his companion something very similar in his makeup, but of three or four seasons experience at summer re- sorts. In burst of confidence, after the first week of it, the new fellow called the veteran aside.

Mir, Bozsie Thinks Thns for tho Ice
 Cream Habit It ls n DeIusion.
 "When was youngster," said Mir, Bozxle, ''I used to wonder how the confectioners could make money, It always seemed to me that the clerks would eat so much candy that they would eat up all tho profits re- member reading or hearing later that this was not so; that when . new clerk came into the store the pro- prietor would say: Now, I hope you will eat all the candies you want; don't hesitate to help yourself at any time. and that the result of this was that at the end of week she was so tick and tired of candy that she hated the sight of it, and didn't want my more for a year, This, l suppose, might be called a surfeit cure.
 After had grown up and come to have a family, 1 remembered this and thought l might turn the idea to ad- vantage had four children, and the amount of money they spent for ice cream and candy and soda water was something awful, l thought that by spending in lump enough money to make them tired of those things 1 might in the long run make a consid- erable saving. So l set aside one thousand dollars for that purpose, and one day l said to my oldest child;
 'Tillie, don't believe you and the children are beginning to have tho ice cream and candy you ought to have. l am afraid you think because papa isn't very rich that you must skimp your selves about these things, but you needn't; you can have all the money lars Now, l wish you'd take the chil- dren out and get some ice cream and candy, and whenever that money is gone, just let me know, and m give you more.
 "Well, they uSed up that thousand dollars in about ten weeks, and at the end ci that time they were as hungry for ice cream and candy as ever Ikept up the supply of money. was like a gambler, who keeps on playing after he has lost 6 lot, in the hope that his luck might turn. thought they might reach the surfeiting point at any min ute, and it seemed too bad to make a dead loss of the money already in- vested, when, perhaps, the expendi- ture of a few dollars more would ac- complish the desired results; so l have kept on, But the children's appetite for ice cream and candy seems actual ly to increase. They tell me am so good; aud that, of course, is some thing. like to see them happy; but meanwhile, my harG.earned money is melting away, and am inclined to think that the surfeit cure Is delu- sion, if not a snare.
