"A TriHe Too Touch.

The cannibal king sat upon his
bamboo throne, clothed in the awful
dignity of his position and a faded
silk scarf. His eye was fastened up
on the entrance to the throneroom
as IT in expectancy. Presently it
opened, and the secretary of state en-.
tered and bowed to the earth.
"A deputation awaits without,
your majesty" said the secretary.
What kind, slave?" inquired his
nibs.

"Your physical wants, your mai.

Rented Diamonds.

1t is gradually becoming known
among pretentious people that dia-
monds, like houses and horses and
carriages, can be rented for the a
son. This will enable those who have
a high social ambition, but limited
means, to make a greater display
than they have been able to do for
merly. You can go to certain dia-
mond dealers in Maiden lane in New
York and obtain rings for the fin
gers and ears, necklaces and brooch
es, pendants, hairpins and all the
other kinds of diamond jewelry by
depositing OF giving bond for the
full value of the article and paying
5 per cent a month for their use, and
this, l am told, is getting to be a
very large and profitable business.

Four Feet of Snow In Eight Hours.

Il have seen four feet of snowfall
in eight hours, said Conductor Cobb
OF the Maine Central, land yet it
was so light that you could wade
through it just as you can through
water.
1T was in the Sierra Nevada
mountains-a sort of frostlike snow
that falls in the night, burying ev-
erything. Twelve feet away from
another man you can just see him,
with a sort of halo around him, as
though somewhere the sun was
shining through the storm. In these
storms it is impossible to tell direc-
ton OF distance. One is simply lost
when only a short distance from
camp.
I'm the morning we walked down
into town. One man went ahead.
breaking the snow, which came
nearly to his armpits as he moved
through it. He would tread until
tired, when he would drop to the
rear, and some one else would lead
the procession. AS we walked into
the valley it grew less, and down be-
low in the town there had been no
snow, and all the time the sun Or
the stars had shone. Such a snow
goes like dew-disappears, evapo-
rates. Lewiston Journal.

A Young Mans Nice Tact.

Among the passengers on a Ian
caster enu a as it proceeded
west from Thirty-second and Market
streets was a well dressed young
man who sat in the corner, with his
coat collar turned up, indulging in
a half doze. A bag lay at his feet,
indicating that he was returning
from a journey. When the car reach
ed the transfer station, five young
girls entered the car, accompanied
by two young e.
They had scarcely been seated
when Il of the young ladies sud
denly left her seat, threw herself
alongside of the young man in the
corner, and, placing one arm partly
around his neck, exclaimed: why,
Cousin Emerson, you've come at
last! What a fibber you are! We
looked She stopped, looked con-
fused, then, with a little shrek, hur-
riedly rejoined her companions and
buried her crimson face in her hand
kerchief. She had made a mistake.
The young man after recovering
from his establishment rose from his
seat, bowed respectfully to the girls
escorts, tipped his hat politely to the
ladies and got off. AS the passed

street awaiting the next a He had
alighted to relieve the young lady
of her embarrassment. -Philadel-

The Is Sweet Enough, but Some Of Her
Ways Are Not.
Who doesn't know the girl who
goes around whacking other girls on
the backs and pounding them in the
stomachs and pummeling them in
their chests, saying: why on earth
don'tyou stand up? You're as humpy
rs a camel!"
Some folks say that this girl is all
right; that she fills her niche in the
worlds gallery of welldoers with
ability and unselfishness. This may
be true, but if you happen to be a
girl and wander into the way of this
welldoer you long to implore her to
adopt milder methods: 1t isn't pleas
ant when you are discussing the
latest wrinkle in h~airdressing to
have somebody suddenly give you a n
awful thump between the shoulders
and say: "Stand up, there, now! If
you bend over much more, you'll
stand on your head" Then you are
likely to double up as quickly as a
folding bed unsolicited doubles
down, and for a moment you may
imagine that you are in the hands of
a patented massage machine or
ioundering in the whirring arms of
a windmill.
1t is this same girl that "does her
exercises'>o the back porch every
morning, to the amusement and graf
ification of a huge audience station
eel at numerous windows. She first
plants her hands on her hips and
draws several long breaths. She puffs
her chest out pigeon fashion and
snorts like "a feminine Sandow. Aft
er that she stretches her arms to-
ward a neighboring c%lothesline, and
by that time spectators, open mouth
ed and interested, have assembled.
A man in the act of shaving puts
down his razor, deserts his mirror
and brush and devotes himself en-
tirely to gazing at the twisting,
stretching vision of athletic lowell

back door with a bucket of potato
Feelings, but stops midway of her
journey to look. In every other win
dow along the entire row of houses
beams a face, and as the athletic
maiden becomes more and more
warmed up to her playful and invig-
Grating performance each face grows
into a group of three, Or even more.
After a few mornings of this the
shaving gentlemen and the kitchen
lady defer their individual employ
ment until the vision on the back
porch starts up her Delsartean poses.
Sometimes when she is in a sne-
cially humorous mood she gives an
imitation of Lottie Collins cele-
DRAFTED rough and tumble dance, and
at such moments the audience mods
its universal approval. Whatever her
actions, she's sure of a crowd of on
lockers, and ven if her audience
does increase daily she frets not, so
long as the faithful tape measure
tells her that her chest has widened
almost half an inch after only three
months of muscle developing tor
ture and exhibitions of graceful war

Ono of my cousins, John Holmes
Goodenow of Alfred, Me-, was ap-
pointed minister to Turkey early in
the Lincoln administration and was
taken to the White House before his
departure for his post to be present
ed to the president When Lincoln
learned that his visitor was a grand.
son of John Holmes, one of the first
senators from Maine, and a man of
note in his day and generation, he
Immediately began the recitation of
apoetical quotation which must have
been more than 100 lines in length
MIR. Holmes, never having met the
president, was naturally %astonished
at this outburst, and as the Dresi-
dent went on with this long recita-
ton the suspicion crossed his mind
that Lincoln had suddenly taken
leave of his wits. But when the lines
had been finished the president said.
There, that poem was quoted by
your grandfather Holmes in a speech
which he made in the United States
senate in -" and he named the
date and specified the occasion. As
John Holmes term in the senate
ended in 1888, and Lincoln was prob.
ably impressed by reading a copy of
the speech rather than by hearing it,
this feat of memory appears most
remarkable. If he had been by any
casualty deprived of his sight, his
own memory would have supplied
him with an ample library.-Noah

Madras-The Eurasians.

Only 4, 900 Europeans are to be
found in the immense population Of
400, 600 souls, if we exclude the 49,
900 Eurasians who occupy the No
Mans Land, on the borders of black
and white. This hybrid race presents
insoluble difficulties to the political
economist. Craving for the social
recognition denied to a community
which originated in the vices of the
early European colonists, and scorned
alike by the pure blooded nations of
east and west, the sins of the fathers
seem visited upon the yellow chill
dren of this degenerate stock unto
the third and fourth generation.
By a curious freak of nature the
Eurasian of Portuguese descent sinks
step by step in the scale of color un-
til he becomes of darker hue than the
Hindoo of unblemished race, and the
hybrid Goanese of the present day
combine distinctively European fea-
lures with a skin of total blackness.
The unbalanced Eurasian character,
full OF conflicting clements, lacks the
sterling and enduring qualities
which command respect and insure
success, and this feeble type of hu-
mainly has hitherto appeared inca
pable of elevation to vigor of thought
and action ALI the Year Round.
