The soLAcINe WEED.
civiIIzsd Men Take to Tobacco rs Level
Above the Lower Animals.


In the opinion Of about four in every
1--WE men the essential difference between
man and the inferior animals is that
man smokes tobacco. Occasionally pre-
cocious monkey has been taught TO
drink beer and smoke pipe-Old Tom
in the London zoo, for instance-but
this only emphasizes the exclusive hu-
manness of smoking. The monkey is
nearest kin to man and is in full prog
ress toward the human state. As thu
ultra temperance lecturers affirm, "A
dog wouldn't smoke the vile weed"
No other animal than superior man and
the anthropoid ape will smoke. Perhaps
in the civilized white world one man in
five is the victim of some defect that
disqualifies him for smoking. The de-
feet may be tendency to cancerous
growth, or it may be wife or mother
in-law. The remaining four are in the
full enjoyment of all their faculties
and the right to pursue happiness
through cloud of tobacco smoke.
Lack of opportunity to smoke is with
out doubt the most affective evil under
which majority of men suffer. A
large proportion of men are employed
in offices, stores and shops where rules
against smoking are rigidly enforced.
This is entirely proper. No superior
smoker ever smokes while working. To
do that is to debase the luxury and to
take off the keen edge of the pleasure.
1t is intemperance and dissipation. The
most expert wine tasters never drink to
excess, but find that in moderation only
does the palate retain its power to de-
tect the delicate flavor. So with smok-
ing. At night, after few pipes or ci,
gars have dulled the edge of appetite, il
is allowable to smoke half dozen with
some violence to stimulate a jaded pal
ate, but at other times pleasure goes
with moderation. To smoke after mea
is the imperative demand of the whole
system. Not to be able to do this is tt
incur endless disorders of the nervous
system, the stomach and the entire di
gestive apparatus and sometimes to in
vite progressive decay Of the menti.
faculties. There is no better preparation
for days work for the smoker than ;
pipe or cigar after breakfast. New

The MAKING OF THIEVES.
A Significant Increase In the Number o
Child Criminals.

u
Child Criminals.
There has surely been of late q very
greatand significant increase in the num-
Der of child criminals that are brought
to our police courts. There are moro Of
them, and they are much younger than
they used 20 be, and they are vastly
tougher. F" Their manner shows plain
" that the street has been their teacher,
and that they have been apt pupils. Its
method is simple and varies in HelPs
Kitchen and in Jewtovn only in the
opportunities offered. To begin with,
the boy idler in the street during school
hours is there in defiance of law, wheth-
er the fault is his own or not, and he
knows it. He is in the attitude of op-
position, the normal attitude of the
street. The policeman is his enemy, and
the policeman stands for the establish
ed order of things.
Thus the groundwork is laid for
whatever mischief comes along. 1t is
not long in coming, rarely longer than
the dinner hour of the first day. The
boy is hungry. He wants something to
eat. A boys hunger is not like mans,
which can be appeased with promises
He wants something at once. If he is
playing hooky, he does not want to go
homo to get it. Anyway there is no
need to do so. The street can show him
an easier way. A grocers stand is
handy, or a pie wagon; better still, a
soda water wagon. The bottle is worth
SO much cash at the junkshop The
drivers back is turned. The boy
"swipes" one.
1t is not very great crime, but it is
the stepping stone to many greater. A
horse blanket or copper bottomed boil
er may be the next thing. 1t is the
first step that costs an effort, and that
not very great one, with the clamol
! of a hungry stomach to drown the warn
ing voice within him that whispers O.
the policeman and the lookup. The
friends he makes in the street soon hell
him to contempt for the one and a Sc
cret pride in the other. er.-Jacob A. Rii'
in Century.

STORY OF A WEDDING.
And Present That Turned Out to BE .
White Elephant.

know a man named Jack Barnes,
who was married one Thanksgiving
day, writes Howard Fielding in the
Boston Herald His wife had quite a
number Of rich relations. One of them
was in the furniture business. His pres
snt was undoubtedly the handsomest of
all It was a mahogany bedstead big
enough fer a Mormon elder and carved
in the highest style of the art. The
happy couple were enraptured when
they saw it, The exhibition occurred in
the store of the furniture man, for of
course such thing couldn't be sent to
the brides fathers house like a sugar
spoon in a box. An expressman who
subsequently moved the bedstead told
me that it weighed nine tons, but /
think he exaggerated. Moreover, it was
certainly as massive apiece of furniture
as ever 1 saw. On this account perhaps
the generous donor had been unable to
sell it and had had it numbering up his
salesroom until he had grown sick of
the sight of it.
The bridegroom gave directions for
its removal to the Harlem fiat. He then
thanked his wife's uncle for this mag
nifcent gift with tears in his eyes.
When Mr.. and Mrs. Barnes returned
from their wedding journey, they found
the mahogany bed already established
in their fat They knew it was there,
because they were unable to open the
parlor door. The bed was inside, and
there was an alley foot wide all the
way around it between it and the wall.
This may seem improbable to person
who does not know much about New
York flats of the $40 month grade,
but the sophisticated will only wonder
that the bed got in there at all. I am
| told that the men who set it up had tc
climb out of a window afterward, but
think this is an exaggeration, because
the tall, carved bedboard entirely Gov
cred the two windows and thus cast 6
gloom over the otherwise happy home.
They found the furniture which ha6
previously been in the parlor divided
between two bedrooms and completely
filling them.
Housekeeping under these circum
stances was not what this young woman
had been led to expect. In "a hours SHE
had demanded q larger fat. Mr.. Barnes
went fat hunting. The adventures o.
the Wandering Jew are mere stroll
compared to those of the fat hunter il
New York. Jack was looking for bed
room big enough to hold the mahogany
bedstead. He tells me that this piece O.
furniture was SO big that he could hard
ly carry a memorandum of its dimen
sions in his LARGEST overcoat nocket.

Mrs. Williams always asserted that
whenever her husband proffered a rea-
sonable request she complied with it as
promptly as possible. When asked on
one occasion what she meant by this
reservation, she said, with laugh:
"Well, once in awhile Mr.. Williams
makes what ! call an unreasonable re-
quest For instance, he came home a
few days ago and said he had seen a
woman on the street whose dress he ad-
mired, and he wished would have one
made just like it,
"'Tell me how it was made, and l
certainly will, answered.
"'Oh, it is very simple, he began.
The color was--well, it was one of
those mixed goods, you lnow-brown,
I should say, or o sort of yellowish
gray, with a figure of some sort, spot
or perhaps small stripe, or it might
have been check. 1t was made with a
skirt-just one skirt, think-and it
had ruff1ing or band or a-a-some-
thing to brighten it little here and
there, more toward the bottom, I should
say than the top, though think there
was little ornamentation of some sort
around the top too.
,"'And the waist or jacket, or what
ever you choose to call it, that was per-
fectly plain, l think, except that there
were few frills about it and a contriv-
ance of some sort about the neck
nothing elaborate at all, but just what
would look neat and appropriate.

quired as he finished this lucid descrip.
tion.

The Night Conductors courtship.

The conductors OH the night runs are
usually more genial than those who
look after the fares in the daytime
just why this should be SO is not quite
clear, but the fact that most of them
conduct affairs of the heart with young
women who are engaged in domestic
service during the daytime may have
something to do with it. In making as
signments the aim usually is to put the
married men on the day runs and the
single men on at night AS soon as the
evening dishes are out of the way the
lady in whom he is interested boards
his car, and between one end of the line
and the other they manage to have a
lengthy tete-a-tete. The gripman is
more fortunately situated than the con-
ductor in this respect, as his little
chats are not subject to frequent inter-
ruptions, as the conductors are. Chi
