Indifferent.

Fortenelle, a famous French wit,
and a man Of letters, was noted
among other things for his imper-
turbability. He lived to be hun
dred years old, and took all the
changing fortunes of life with the ut
most tranquility. The philosophical
spirit with which he regarded criti-
cism may well serve as an example to
others.
M. de la Place, young French
writer was frowning over pamphlet
which he was reading. when he heard
his name called.
what have you there VIII .ch dis
turhs you so, my son." asked the
speaker, who was Fontenelle.
Look at it: it is libel against my
last poem, and against myself"
'Is that alp" was the cheerful re-
ply why did you write good
thing if you could not bear adverse
criticism? Give me your arm, little
friend, and come home with me"
Arrived at his house, FontenelIe
called to his servant Jacques bring
the keys to the chest. The old chest
was opened, and NJ. de la Place saw
that it was filled with papers and
pamphlets of every size and color.
There" said the veteran writer,
''are some of the criticisms, satires
and Iibels that have been written
about me, from the time of my ear
liest literary attempts up to to-day. l
have never opened one Of them"
"What?" cried NJ, de ia Place, in
astonlshment.
II have never read one of them. A
criticism must be either good or bad;
when criticisms were good my friends
would tell me about them, and
would try and correct my errors
When they were bad it would irritate
me to read them, and to be irritated
would disturb my tranquility, which
l have always valued. Do as l have
done, my friend, and you will never
regret it.--Youths' Companion.

An Amusing Incident.

antics of the happy family when a
keeper came along with big doll
dressed up in a bright red dress,
which he placed in corner of the
cage. The advent OF the newcomer
into their abode at first seemed to

and fear. They huddled themselves
together in a remote corner and,
keeping their eyes on the doll, chat

one big monkey, little braver than
the rest, began to advance cautiously
upon the intruder. When within
about three feet OF the doll, the
monkey proceeded to stamp the floor

Without His Ambitions.
The stat on-house lodger is gen.

the case. About four years ago.
said the sergeant of a Brooklyn
station, '.tnere was little Hebrew
peddler, a young chap who used TO
come and sleep here nightly. He
was a quite sort of fellow, and we all
got to like him. Every morning n
would start out with his pack, and
every night he reappeared. l SAID TO
him one day: Look here, Stein, how
is it that you always come hack here.
You're industrious enough, and after
a hard days work can't you afford a
better place to sleep:'
"'Well,' said he: Tll tell you how
it is, sergeant. I'm in such a posi-
tion that I've got to save. I'm down
now, but l intend to be something
better some day, and the only way
for me to do is to save. Why, SER

''WeIl, we used to help the boy
along by buying little things OF him
now and then, for he was so plucky
and persevering. There's an allow
ance made for giving a supper TO the
buns, and we used to take the cash
and give it to Stein. l never saw
another man who could buy so much
for so little. He'd come back loaded
down with dozen IoaveS of bread and
severel feet of sausages and spread a
royal repast before the vags. Then
we used to give him separate cell,
so he wouldn't have to sleep with the
buns, for we were afraid they'd rob
him or steal his pack. Gradually he
stayed away, and haven't seen him
for a long time. But pve often

TYRANNOUS DOORKEEPERS.
An Odd Type of Man Peculiar to the Whole

sale Business House,.
From all outward appearances the
most important men-in their own
estimation-in the large wholesale
dry-goods establishments Of the city
are the doOrkeeperS In this respect
they occupy positions analago Gus to
their prototypes, the floor walkers OF
the retail establishments, says the
New York Herald.
No doubt the positions have their
responsibilities, and what positions

establishment Responsibility, there
tore. is not monopolized by the door
tenders and affords no reason for the
fine assumption Of superiority which
the actions Of the men imply.
The duty of the doorkeepers Is
primarily to take the time Of the
salesmen and clerks on entering and
leaving the stores, shaking hands
with haYseed customers and bawling
out the names of the statesmen they
desire to see in stentorian tones. In
addition to these they are expected
to exclude peddlcrs and beggars and
to see that no one removes small par
cells of merchandise unless they bear
the proper ''Out check" of some one
in authority.
1t is in the manner in which these
simple duties are performed which
make many of the doorkeepers ridic-
ulous They would be obnoxious
were they not so supremely absurd
In voice, the volume of which
might do credit to the late Count
Johannes in passion, and with look
supposed to strike terror to a guilty
soul, one of them stationed in a
Broadway jobbing house overawes
little messenger boys and creates in
the minds of some of the firms
humber customers an impression
that he is a powerful factor in the
firm.

PLUMBs INITIATE FRfEND


Some weeks ago it was announced
that Mrs p. B. Plumb had brought suit
against Major c. Hood to adjust alleged
differences in partnership matters that
had existed between the late senator and
the major. The news came as a great
surprise. The friends of Senator Plumb
could not understand how anything but
the most cordial feeling could exist on
the part of the surviving members of the
family toward Major Hood. The friend
ship between these two men in many re-
speets was closer than a bFotheFly one.
They trusted each other implicitly. They
had been associated for long years
in business. The summer be-
fore the senator's death the two
men made an extended trip together
in Colorado and it is known that both en-
joyed it like old chums. Such social
visit they had not had together for some
years on account Of the senator's congress
siona1 duties. Both spoke enthusiastic
cally of the occasion to their friends
Cordial relations always existed and no
differences came between them that were
not easily adjusted. A suit at law on the
part of the Plumb estate against the
most intimate friend of the senator,
could only be explained by misinforma-
ton on the part of the plaintiff. An item
from Emporia today reeites that Mrs.
Plumb has dismissed the case on these
very grounds. Both parties are to be
sincerely congratulated. The integrity
and honor of Major Hood have never
been questioned No one can do BUSH
ness with him without esteeming him
and being impressed with his sincerity,
his business genius and his warm hearted
nature. He helped Plumb just as he
helps scores of people whom he believes
worthy and in need of help. He does
these things because he can, because he
likes to and all quietly and without osten-
tation. Intimate friends know how
many questions of public policy Senator
Plumb deferred to the conscientious,
conservative and careful judgment of
Maj. Hood. Indeed again and again
did Senator Plumb, in his public duties,
follow a course largely marked out by
Maj. Hood. In PIumb's remarkable
success at Washington and in his his
tory, which is now read with such adj
miration on the part of his old friends,
M jor Hood important factor.
Could Plumb speak today he would un-
doubleday urge his old friend for his seat
in the senate.
between the families, as instanced by
the dismissal of the suit, is one that will
be most happily received
