A Terror to postmen.

There is a little green card in use by
the post-of1icc department that is ter
ror to careless letter carriers This
card is dropped in letter-box; ON 1t
is marked the time when 1t is put In
and when it should be taken out. A
record is kept at the Office, and if that
card does not turn up when due, it is
clearly to be seen that the carrier has
not AIKEN the mail from the box, at
least. When there is any complaint on
the part of the citizens about the tar
diness Of the local mails; the telltale
card is dropped in one or more boxes
in the districts from which the COM
plant comes. 1t is, however, not necos-
sary that there should be complaints,
for frequently the cards are put in the
boxes Of efficient men. OF course they
hre happy When they discover them.
When a box is missed In which there
is green card the carrier is bound to
get into trouble, and very serious trou-
bit at that. This card has been in use
for good many years in all parts Of
the country

when Tn good, he lets me ride on the

'.And he gave me doll with wax
arms and legs and five shillings not to
tease Mrs. Lilly" cried Jenny, in q
shrill voice, noddlng her head violently
up and down.
There was a short silence, during
which Bell felt that Mrs. Boddinston's
languid blue eyes We're surveying her
with an amount of attention which that
nonchalent lady seldom bestowed on
any face save her own in the looking
glass. And Bell. who was greatly TAX
en- aback by Jenny's revelation, began
to color violently under her employers
steady gaze.
Don't be silly, benny" said Mrs.
Boddington, at length, in her usual
lazy drawl, and went lelsurely out of
the room again. But ina few minutes
she returned holding a visiting card in
her hand. "Oh, look here, Mrs, Lilly"
she said, 'is this person some relation
of yours?'
Bell looked ut the card in astonish-
ment

swered Bell, shortly, and-if the truth
must be told-sharply. For there was
a new tone Of patronage, little air
of cool condescension. an indefinable
suggestion Of the distance between EN-
ployer and goVerness in Mrs. Bedding
toms manner which our impulsive Mrs.
Jack felt, and resented unreflcctingly.
And. having made this abrupt answer,
she tied on her bonnet and went away.
Mrs. Jack was altogether more dis
turbed and agitated than the incident
seemed to warrant. What had put her
cut so much? There We're tears in
her eyes when she reached homc-hnt
tesrs Of veAation And her cheeks We're
burning. She ran into her bedroom and
locked the door, ind tore off her heavy
bonnet with its rusty Grape, and, sit
ting down by the bedside, leaned her
head on the pillow and began to cry.

Catch-phrases have ever been danger
Gus. There is q certain rather fussy
colonel, now with his regiment in In
dia, who upon being slapped upon the
back one day by too familiar ac-
quaintance, and addressed with, Good
morning, old fellow" replied:
"Oll, yes; but fellow, no!'
This reply getting spread about it
became the habit in the camp to apply
it upon all and sundry occasions, such
as when anybody made the remark,
Zine day." the answer would be,
Day, yes; but tine,. no."
At IL little afternoon tea the colonel's
daughter was presiding. Having with
her own fair hands poured the boiling
water from a little lamp kettle upon
the fragrant leaves, she blew the fame
under the kettle out, whereupon the
chaplain standing by Remarked:
You put me in mind Of the fool

Foolish, yes-er, that is. quite So"

Husband and wife had little tiff
He buried his nose In the morning pa
per, while she gazed out of the car
window with great intentncss. Thus
an hour and thirty minutes passed. A
lady entered the car. Husband drop
ped his paper and looked ut her al
miringly.
"Ah," said he, that's fine woman
And widow too. Don't you think
she's handsomey'
"Yes, rather. You seem to like wild
ows."
Indeed l do. They are just charm

Husband evidently thought this
would pique his partner. But it didn't.

What Allied the Girl.

A fashy young man, wearing

And she's so smart, and all that. She
swims and rides and plays billiards

The flashy young man hesitated for

LIQUID FUEL.

cOriling to Admiral Selvvyn.

cOTU1n8 10 ADMIRAL SGkWy0e
In a paper read before the Pacific
Coast Technical Society several weeks
ago Admiral Jasper Henry Selwyn, q
retired British officer, made some sur
prising statements about the possibili-
ties of engine power derived from liq-
uid fuel. Theoretically, lie said, a
pound OF the best coal Is equal to con-
verting IL pounds Of water into steam;
hut, practically, only half of this effect
is realized under the most favorable
conditions But with petroleum there
was u theoretical value of y, and in
practice he himself secured the evapora-
ton of 1863 pounds Of water to 1 Of
fuel
This was with oil alone. But by blow
ing the sprayed oil with steam, instead
OF air, he claims to have raised the
service to 90 or % pounds Of water.
This, he explained. was BECAUSE the
steam was ASSOCIATED into its comp0-
nent gases, and tile hydrogen thus liber-
ated did duty as fuel. Finally, he de-
clarcd that under the marine and Corn
ish boilers he was able to burn not only
the hydrogen Of the steam hut also the
nitrogen gas in the air, Which has usual
ly been regarded merely diluant OF the
oxygen. and clog on combustion.
Thus, he said, he had been able to evap-
crate AZ pounds Of water with one of
fuel. In most Of his experiments he
used, and be recommended that marine
engineers always use, an Oil of a speci-
tic gravity greater than that of salt
water. and not emitting gas at a tenn
pernture lower than 800 degrees Fab
renheit
AS is customary in most scientific
bodies, when the reading of this paper
was finished the subject was discussed
by experts, nearly all of whom were
skeptical as to the possibility OF attain
ing any such results as had been des-
cribed. A gain Of some 80 to 50 per
cent in efficiency by substituting Oil for
coal was all that they were disposed to
concede. Moreover, doubt was express
ed concerning the availability Of sup
ply Of the particular grade of Oil pre-
scribed. Most Of the residum produced
at the retineries Of the United States
is burned on the spot. Very little gets
into the market Admiral Selwyn was
not able to produce the detailed informa-
ton about his tests that was called for,
but he insisted that other mems fall
ures to parallel his alleged success was
due to the imperfection Of their meth
DDS. AS to getting oil Of the proper
grade. he added, South America had
an abundant supply.

He Was Grateful.

Il must express my gratitude to you
doctor. am thousand times obliged
to you. You saved my life," said n
young man, rushing and shaking the
hand Of New York doctor.
But never treated YOU"
mo, of course you didn't treat me,
but l was about to commit suicide ow-
ing to poverty when my rich uncle died
and left me $4,000. He was one of
your patients. and IL it hadn't been
for you he might be alive to-day"
