Some years ago the Agricultural
Department at Washington received
a scrawly letter from Wisconsin
farmer. It was one of many, but was
noticeable for les laconic Indefinite
ness.
The envelope was addressed to the
s'Agrycultral Deptment, Washnton,
D. O." and the communication itself
ran thus
'sSir, [ want agricultural report on
being in the farmin bisness l orter git
it."
It happened that the gentleman in
charge of the department. correspond
ence was very conscientious and
even elegant letter writer, and he re-
piled to this communication in his
most elaborate courteous manner. The
department would be most happy to
comply with it's esteemed correspond
ent's request, he declared, but it need
ed to be informed somewhat more
specifically which of it's numerous re-
ports was needed. Would Mr."be
kind enough to mention the date, or
at least the subject of the document
in question?
Mr.. replied promptly and sue
cinctIy thus:-

a DICKENS BANQUET.

When Charles Dickens made his
first visit to this country and obtain
ed his material for writing "Martln
ChuzzleWit" and "American Notes."
ne travelled from Pittsburgh to st.
Louis in steamboat and thus got the
pictures of his s'Eden" from Cairo,
Ill which was then struggling
frontier village. On his way back,
says the Chicago Times Herald, he
stopped at Louisville and was guest
at the Gait house, then owned and
conducted by Maj Iris Throckmorton,
a gallant and courtly gentleman of
high blood.
Thinking to give his distinguished
guest an unexpected pleasure, he
caused to be spread in private re-
fectory, an exquisite little dinner, to
which he had invited George D. Prem
tice, Tom Marshall, DR.. Theodore
Bell, Chancellor Pirtle, and a few
other prominent men OF that day and
city to meet Mr. Dickens.
After all the guests had been seat
ed at the table by Maj. Throckmorton
in his blandest and most cordial way
Dickens, who had not learned the diff
ference between the proprietor of a
great hotel in America and an inn
keeper in a provincial town of Eng
land, remarked to Maj. Throckmor-
ton:
"There, that will do, landlord. You
may retire now"
1t was all the remainder of the as
sembled company could do to pre-
vent the irate Throckmorton from
throwing the mistaken Mr.. Dickens
out of third story window, and the
banquet became a somewhat strained
affair.

What use is there in eating when food does
you good-in fact, when it does you more
harm than good, for such is the case if it is
not digested. If you have loathing for food
there is of forcing it down, for it will
not be digested. You must restore the diges-
tive organs to their natural strength and
cause the food to be digested when an appe.
tile will come, and with it relish for food
That tired, languid feeling will give place
to vigor and energy, then you will put flesh
on your bonesEand become strong. The Shak-
er Digestive Cordial made by the Mount
Lebanon Shakers contains food already di-
gested and is a digester of foods as we'll. It's
action Is prompt and its effects permanent.
Doctors prescribe Laxol because it has all
the virtues of castor oil and is palatable.

A Brahmin travelling recently be-
tween Chittur and Nemara, in the
country back of Madras, was belated
and sought shelter for the night at
house where he was received by two
Nair women. To the elder he gave
thousand rupees for safe keeping.
This aroused her avarice, and she
proposed to her sister to murder their
guest and keep his money. She re-
fused, but when the elder woman's
husband arrived he fell in with her
plan. The guest, sleeping on the We
randa, was warned in time of his dan
ger by the younger sister, and hidden
by her in an clubhouse. About mid
night a brother of the two women re-
turned from journey and seeing the
house shut, lay down to sleep on the
mat which the Brahmin had left. Soon
after the murderers stole upon the
sleeper and killed him with one blow
with a rice FOUNDER, buried the body
without finding out their mistake, and
removed all traces of the crime. In
the morning the Brahmin was let out
by his rescuer, and walked into the
house to ask for his money. The as
sassins were terrified out of their wits
and gave it back to him, whereupon
he went to the police and informed
them of the intention to murder him.
By this time the brother had been
missed, but after a search the body
was found and the guilty couple ar
rested. The Brahmin was so impress
ed by the danger he had escaped that
he gave the thousand rupees to the
girl who had saved him.

An amusing incident occurred not
long ago in New York art school.
The girl students were drawing from
a study of the Dancing Faun." A
good looking Italian boy was the
model, and as he assumed the requi-
site pose his face became wreathed
in smiles. He was gazing directly at
the class, and each girl imagined that
the smile was directed at her in par
ticular.
GLOW very embarrassing" said a
Brooklyn girl. CT wish to goodness
he wouldn't grin at me-"
In spite of the indignant chances
cast at him, the son of Italy contin-
ued to smile at the bIushing girls.
Presently stolid German girl look
ed up and mott ced the smile which she
imagined was aimed directly at her.
"You stop that smiling. We
don't want you to smile at U.S.
she exclaimed.
The boys figure Strengthened up
and he stood before the class the very
impersonation of offended dignity, as
he said: 'ELadies, l no smile at any
one. pose before you as re Dancing
Faun.' Re smile goes wiz re pose"

keepers had joined the women in clos
ing the score of smaller competitors
The following year the owners of the
drinking saloons, in revenge, joined
the women in gaining a refusal of Ii
cense to the three taverns, and so the
work Of temperance was accomplish
ed by the aid of it's enemies.
So complete was the exclusion of Ii
quor that boys grew up into manhood
without having even tasted or seen
intoxicants. Confirmed drunkards
went to neighboring towns to carouse,
and, coming home, protected their
sons by voting against license. In
one year ninety five thousand dollars
were spent in freehold homes for
workmen's residences. Later, this
temperance matron opened evening
schools and amusement rooms for
the boys of the town, and soon, by
the gift of one of the principal own
ers of the town, building costing
twenty thousand dollars was placed
at her disposal, with it's lecture, read
Ing l1OIdIJ duO UdUl IOO"S.
This romance of philanthropy, the
story of one of five hundred thousand
members of this woman's society, is a
solitary instance Or type Of number

been awakened and directed by this

able and consecrated women, one
American and one English, who re

precedented in the history of associa

What must be the feelings of our

lands in which one half of the COM

women at thirty, lifelong prisoners,
the helpless young wife slaves of men

to the women of their own communi-

some light, gossipy chat about friends,
though their gossip is never of a
harmful kind In conversation they
show some little animation and spirit;
but, being ignorant and illiterate, they
have no idea of gram NAUTICAL form of
expression. Occasionally cards, dom
inoes and checkers are played; but
the native girls have little inclination
for any pastime involving mental et-

all similar gatherings men are barred.
There is absolutely no commingling
of the sexes. For girl to appear at

do such thing; she would not dream
of committing so fatal breach in the

Every man, woman and child who
lives at Point San Pedro in Marin Co.,
California, is bleached blonde. Even
the chickens, dogs, horses, cats, pigs
and geese are a bright yellow. The
whole place looks as if it were suffer
ing from an attack of jaundice.
This peculiar condition of affairs is
due to the chemicals used in the pow
der factory at that place. The com
pany is engaged in the manufacture
of a yellow smokeless powder that is
different from anything in the eX-
plosive line ever put on the market
before.
A robust, ruddy- checked young
man will go to work in the factory,
and in a week he will look as if he had
had the jaundice for months. The
changed appearance is shock to the
friends of the workmen who are ig-
norant of the cause, and it is weeks
before the natural color comes back
to his face.
In three days a white dog will be
the color of an orange, and in three
months his color will fade to light

Sidney R. Ellis, the manager of
Darkest Russia" while travelling in
the south had an experience with
pompous baggage master that for
once resulted in the baggage master
coming out second best.
On going to the depot to leave on
an early train the baggage master,
with the air of a man who owned the
earth, came up to Mr.. Ellis and said.
I'll have to charge you SO excess
on your baggage?
AS much as that? Amt that high?
No, not all. 1t will run over 1000
pounds
How do you know? said Manager
Ellis. Have you weighed it?
No, replied the baggage master. l
can size up trunks. That's my bust
ness.
Well, [ insist upon your weighingit,
said Manager Ellis, and after further
argument the baggage master brought
out an old pair Of scales and carefully
weighed each bit of scenery and each
trunk. When it was all weighed and
the different weights added together,
the baggage master said, wiping his
perspiring face:
I'll make it So 1t doesn't quiet
come up to 1000.
You can't pass it for me? asked
Manager Ellis.
Pass it? L should say not, except
on an order from the general pas
senger agent.
Well, here it is, replied Manager
Elliott, handing the permit for the
express.
The baggage master is still figuring
how he can make up for the adipose
tissue lost in weighing the baggage
he had to pass.

His Serene Highness, the Grand
Duke of Ardelsberg, was giving ban
quet to celebrate the birthday of his
wife, the Grand Duchess, nee the
Princess Wilhelmina Sophia of Mars
bach. The windows of the banquet
ing hall were open, and from his seat
at the head of the table the Grand
Duke could see the open country, soft
and tender, in the mellow cleaning.
In one of the silences of the ducal
band the distant cackling of geese
fioated into the apartment, and, rails
ing hiseyes, the young sovereign saw
a girl and boy, hand in hand, driving
a flock of the birds across the mead
ows in front of the palace. Once the
girl looked at the cleaning windows,
then turned her head. The Grand
Duke watched them hungrily until
they disappeared, and, glancing down
the line of gorgeously attired men
and women before him, saw his fat
and ugly wife eating voraciously.
And a crash of music in the gallery
above drowned the sigh, almost sob,
that came from his Hps.-Bldck and
