What He Came For.

1t came to pass, then, when Macallis-
ter Mc1lhenny preferred his simple re-
quest for her heart and hand she re-
spectfully but firmly declined, saying in
that guileless, disingenuous, original
way Of hers that she would not be his
wife, but would be sister to him-oh,
SO gladly !-extending her lily white
hand with string tied to it.
That was only last night, and this
night he had come to gather up the rich
and costly presents he had given her,
and she was sitting in the drawing room
with her mother, when there came a
pull at the doorbell, like the sluggish
pull of q mud turtle at frisky fshline.
"Who can that be?" asked the maid
en- S mother as she waited for the butler
to respond to it.

ma, replied the girl

The Statesmen Recount Their Amusing Ex-
periences With Various Customers.
One morning, when by mistake we
had arrived at tho store ten minutes be-
fore the arrival of the boss with the
keys, the men were amusing themselves
relating their experience with various
customers
"Why is it," asked the Tool Man,
"that SO many people get twisted with
corkscrews and screwdrivers?"
Mature of the tool" suggested the
Cutlery Man.
"Whatever the reasOn," continued the
Tool Man, Il have observed the almost
universal confusion of screwdriver
and corkscrew. 1t is an everyday occur
renee with ladies as well as men, only
q lady asks for corkscrew and man
for n screwdriver and then look at you
SO surprised "
cor when they want lid lifter,' >"
said the Stove Man, mine people out of
ten ask for stove litter. ~
"Did you ever notice., remarked the
Cutlery Man, "how a man or woman
express themselves when at loss for a
name?"
Whats i'll namc anyway" inter-
rupted the Tool Man. 1.-THE woman who
asked for clear tacks got what she
wanted as quickly as though she had ask
ed for timed tacks. Such requests give
opportunities for mental gymnastics,
and thus relieve the lethargic tenden-
cies incident to continuous routine
work ~
Without apparently observing the in
terruption the Cutlery Man continued:
'The other day a lady came rustling
into the store. sho was ore of those
nervous, buStling little women, and she
wanted a pair of 'twinchcrs. Noticing
my blank look, she said, You know, like
this, making IL motion with her thumb
and fore1inger that at once suggested
'tweezers. When Il man wants an ar
ticle he can't name he gets out pencil,
tears the back from an envelope and pro-
ceeds to give an idea.
"A lady gave me an idca," again re-
marked the stove Man, ION selling gas
stoves. While showing them to her she
asked some question to which confessed
ignorance To my surprise she said:
Well, you may send me this one. l
asked Mr.. - (naming a competitor)
that question, and he told me SO much l
did not know what to believe, but l do

Glass Houses.

There were whole streets in Tyre en-
tircly occupied by glass works, and it is
stated that the first glass houses were
erected i'll Tyre The glass houses of
Alexandria were highly celebrated for
the ingenuity and skill of their work
men and the extent of their manufac-
lures.
Layard, in writing about his discov-
cries among the ruins of Nineveh and
Babylon, says: I'm one chamber were
found two entire glass bowls, with frag-
ments of Others These bowls are prob
ably of the same period as the small
bottle found i'll the ruins of the north
west palace during the previous excaya-
tions, and now in the British museum.
On this highly interesting relic is the
name of Sargon, with his tito of king
of Assyria, i'll cuneiform characters, and
the figure of q lion. We are, therefore,
able to fix its date to the latter part of
the seventh century B. G. 1t is conse-
quently the most ancient known speci-
men of transparent glass. boston
