1t Was Wetter.

The man from Kansas was maksNM a
trip across the Atlantic, aud during the
passage the weather was extremely
boisterous. One morning when it was
blowing great guns the Kansan ap-
peared on deck. Nobody was in sight
except the captain.
$50 below there!" he shouted.
The passenger looked around to see
who he was talking to.
"You mean me?" he yelled back VIXEN
he saw there was no one else in sight.
"Of course do; go below" and the
captain came alongside.
"Well, l guesss not" protested the
Kansan. "pm up here to see how one
of your mountain high waves and ter
rife gales compare with what we have
in Kansas in the way of cyclones. This
amt a patching to what I've seen out
our way"
Before the captain could offer further
objection, a big green wave came curl
ing over the place where the passenger
stood, and the next thing he knew he
was swept off his feet and carried aft
over ropes and boats and all the para
phernalia of ships deck and landed in
a heap in one corner. where he was
saved from being washed overheard.
When they got him out he had a broken
leg, a twisted shoulder, sprained
wrist, his face looked as if it had been
dragged backward through briarpatch
and he was unconscious. They carried
him to the captains room and after
much effort restored him to conscious
ness. He gazed around a minute in be.

captain.

WISDOM OF THE INDIAN ELEPHANT.
He Knows When He Has Been Swindled,
and Vigorously Resents 1t.

One day, says a writer of English
military experience, heavy gun stuck
in the muddy bottom of stream and
the tandem elephant was unlocked to
shove behind, or lift the muzzle of the
he only beloved and swayed uneasily,
shifting from one foot to the other in
the sticky mud. At last, with piteous,
shrill trumpeting, he touched the sharp
point of the iron right on the muzzle.
self, sahib," explained the mahout.
"Wen," answered the officer in jest,
tell him to spoke the wheel" Promise
him backsheesh, sahib, and he will"
"Very WE'LL" The elephant carefully
found securer footing, curled his trunk
round lower spoke, and made the
wheel revolve; then the shaft elephant
put in his ponderous weight and the gun
slowly rose out of the mud and rolled
up the opposite bank.
The triumphant mahout demanded
backsheesh for his Hooshiar Haiti (wise
elephant). you scamp! You want
the backsheesh for yourself" "No,
sahib, / dare not cheat him, and if you
don't give him backsheeSh he will re-
member you are no gentleman and will
never work for you again" call
right" said the officer, tossing the man
couple of rupees in succession. "How
shall l know you don't cheat him?"
"Come and see him fed this evening,
sahib."
That evening by moonlight the officer
was summoned to see Hooshiar Haiti
eat his supper. The elephant was sway
ing to and fro, tanning himself with a
branch, and round the fire stood huge
chupatties-fat cakes. of -four, butter,
and sugar-purchased with the back
sheesh for the Hooshiar's supper. The
mahout took upsone of these cakes and
offered it to the 'wise one," who
weighed it carefully in his trunk and
then deposited it with a satisfied smack
in his raw-looking mouth. "Now, sahib,
this second chupattie is light weight.
See him find it out"
The elephants are accustomed to a
certain ration weight, and when the
Hooshiar took this cake by the edge an
angry twinkle came into his wicked
little eye, and, quick as lightning, he
slapped the mahout in the face with the
leathery mass. "See, sahib," cried the
man in glee. Il dare not cheat him!'
| And he picked himself up and offered q
larger chupattle. Here, you foolish
one! Did ever cheat you? This one
is overweight" The elephant under
stood and ate in forgiving tranquility.

ROB US OF ALL PLEASURE.
That Bill of Fare Put in Language No
One Understands.

She had come in after breezy fash
ion that told of country freedom and
betokened long emancipation from city
ways.
Eyes" she answered, dive had a good
time, but am starved actually starved
i'm the abundance of a swell hotel.
some genuine American restaurant. I'll
tell you all about it.
"You see," she continued when we
had seated ourselves in a cool corner of
well-ventilated restaurant, "we went
early in the season to the seashore and
put up at one of the best hotels. Ev-
erything was delightful and charming,
good rooms, splendid bathing, sailing
and fishing, and goodly number of
men-not any too many, but just
enough to make the chase exciting, but
the fault is in the menu.
"The food is good and there is plenty
of it, but the bill of fare takes away all
pleasure from the days and causes me
to lie awake nights in a torment of wor-
ry lest the next day brings the same
fight with the bill of fare. Yes, I'm al
most starved in the midst of plenty"
"How can that be?" exclaimed.
Simply in this way: We are the
victims of landlord who believes that
the calling of every article of fare by a
French name adds dignity and poise to
his otherwise charming hostelry.
"We are confronted at each meal with
jargon Of Franco-English that deies
the understanding of Partisan and
paralyzes the brains of Americans.
Good French may be interpreted, but
the bill-of-fare French is beyond the
knowledge of anyone.
'I'm in despair and shall go back this
afternoon laden with canned goods and
biscuits to devonr in the secrecy of my
room, that may no longer suffer the
pangs of hunger"
The French bill of fare, or, as the
stewards of hotels and restaurants call
it, menu, is the bane of those depend
! ing on such resorts for shelter and sus-
tenance.
1t was with sadness almost that the
many persons l sought told me their eX-
periences with this bill-of-fare language.
There is no relief.
In winter as well as summer the pro-
prietors of restaurants and hotels put
Upon their bills of fare names which
convey no idea of delicacies, and will
fully pervert the language of two coun-
tries into meaningless phrases.
Said one innkeeper:
DO you suppose l could get Is cents
for dish of Irish potatoes if on my
card 1 printed the name in that plain
wayP No. indeed. I put it down as
'Pommes de terre Irandaisse' and the
price is cheerfully paid.
Here are few OF the many names
that puzzle the uninitiated, and the first
one generally leads the list, both in or
der Of the dinner and in degree of ia,
vortism:
"Huitres en- demi coquille." When
translated it means only oysters on the
half shell, but it is little difficult fol
the un-Frenchiffed Yankee to under.
stand.
"Potage totue" has nothing to do with
torture. 1t is simply delicious souE
of turtle.
"Homard a la Newburg" puzzles one
until we learn that it is only way O.
cooking lobster named after the mar
who invented it.

French menu we are developing into {

The kINp.HEARrEp MAN.
He Was DeIuded by His Sympathy for
Beauty in Distress.

A man had occasion to go to the
Union depot yesterday afternoon to
meet his wife, who had been out in the
country for time. When he got to
the station he found his train was half
an hour late, and he bought a paper
and sat down on one of the benches.
Not long after he had seated himself
a rather pretty girl, who wore a pink
waist and had nice, red cheeks and
clear blue eyes and who looked to be
not over II, came and sat down next to
him. The man who was waiting for
his wife took a casual look at the girl
and went back to his paper.
Pretty soon another pretty young
girl who also wore pink waist and had
blue eyes and a fresh complexion and
all that sort of thing, came along and
stopped in front of the first girl. The
second pretty girl looked as if she want
ed to cry, She said with tremulous
voice: why. Nettie, what do you
think? The fares dollar"
"a what?" gasped Nettie.
"a dollar! And she told us it was
only so cents, and haven't got enough
to get the tickets; and, oh! dear, I don't
know what we will do"
She sank down beside Nettie and the
two looked at the tiled floor with very
solemn faces. Presently Nettie looked
up and said: "Pll take a walk around
the room. Perhaps there is somebody
here l know" She made the tour of
the room and came back with her face
gloomier than ever. Nobody here I
ever saw BEFORE" she said, brokenly.
"I'm going to tell the ticket man just

tears in her eyes. He won't she said,
sadly.
The man who was waiting for his
wife heard all Of this. His heart was
touched. So he leaned over and said:
Il beg pardon, but, ladies, THAT is
will you allow me to help you in your
hour of trouble?"
The pretty young girls started and
looked at the man with frightened airs.
The man fastened to reassure them
that his intentions were honorable, and,
after many protests and arranging for
repayment and exchange of names and
all that, he gave the pretty girls 81. 15,
and they thanked him prettily and
went to get their train.
1t SO happened that the mans wife
did not come on that train, and he
went down to another train in the even.

waiting for the train he got to thinking
of his afternoon experience, and con.
cluded that he had done right worthy

train of thought a pretty girl in &
pink waist sat down beside him. Pret
ty soon another girl, looking all woe

wife got up and walked slowly to thu
door. He had seen a great light. They
were the same girls.

A Street-Car Saint.

"It is strange how little regard people
have for the comfort of Others" said
The-Man-Fond-of Hist -Own-Voice in the
street car. 1T is strange how little we
are willing to do for brothers or a
sisters convenience" he said, as he re-
tanned the end seat while a fat woman
with canary bird, two valises and an
umbrella crowded past him.
"Oh, this is pretty fair sort of
world" said his companion, man with
lame leg, as he got up and gave the
fat woman his seat and stood up on the
leg that was not lame.
"Ah, my friend, it's an awful selfish
world and my heart is panied every day
of my life, :" said The-Man-Fond-of-His-
Own-V Voice, as he puffed his cigar smoke
into the face of woman with a sick
child in the seat behind him.
81 haven't found it So" said the man
with the lame leg.
"Oh, but it is so," said The-Man-
Fond of-His-O s-Own-V Voice, and he stretch
ed out his legs for woman with four
bundles and poodle dog to tumble
over as she got out of the car.
"Men have no thought for the conven-
ience of Others" he said. as he brought
down his cane upon the sore leg of the
lame man, mo tender regard for fell
low-being's feelings" and he gave the
conductor who hung on by one hand a
500 bill to change for a scent fare.
"There is no unseltish sacrifice in the
world" he said, as he put his foot
through the fat woman's bandbox and
crushed a $15 bonnet.
Remember what tell you" he said,
as he pulled the bell to get off, pulling
the cash registers bell by mistake, thus
taking cents out of the conductors
pocket. Remember what tell you,
men are heartlessly careless of the feel
ings of others and it makes my heart
ache to think upon the selfshness OF
mankind" and he left the car from the
opposite side, tearing the fat woman's
dress, treading on meek mans corns
and crushing baby SO that it cried it
self blue.
The man with lame leg took his va
cant seat and smiled deep, significant
smile.-N Y World.

Not an Even Thing.

In one of my parishes (writes friend
of the Drawer), some years since, had
a vestryman, an excellent man and a
warm friend. He has now departed
this life, and so this story may be told
as an illustration of his official devotion
to the interests of his constituency. In
my neighborhood lived clerical broth
er, a splendid preacher, and very pop
ular with all who knew him, with whom
I often exchanged pulpits. His salary
was 81, 500 and a rectory, while mine
was $4,000 with similar provision fol
my shelter.
One very hot summer, not being in
good health. and knowing that my peo-
pie admired him very much, l ex.
changed quite frequently with him, SC
as to save preparing sermons.
One day L went into the large store
of my vestryman to have a chat with
him, which he opened as follows: "You
have lately exchanged good deal with
Mr.. -"
"Yes, SIR" replied. "He is fine
preacher, and every one in the parish
admires him."
"I know that" said he 81 like him
very much. But what is his salaryP"

cred how much this parish loses by these
exchangesP"

calculation.

loss per Sunday" was the statement Of
this careful guardian of the financial in
terests of his parish. .-Harper's MagG'

How to Wash ChaIlie.

Wash challie in rice water if you wish
it to appear as good as new. Boil a
pound of rice in five quarts of water.
Cool it to the tepid point, then put in
the challie and wash well, using the rice
as soap. Pour off the water, leaving
the rice sediment. Rub the challie well
in this, rinsing in the poured off water.
Use no rinsing water, but hang the ma
terials to dry direct from the rice water.
