THREE FOR A NICKEL.
A shrewd Ohio Postmaster Causes Rush
For Postage Stamps.

Tho business world of the village of
Johnstown, in Ohio, had succumbed to
the heat and had lain down for the sum-
mer siesta. Plainly things needed stir
ring up, and it was Postmaster and Edi-
tor w. A. Ashbrooke who did il. His
humble instruments were merely n piece
Of white pasteboard and some black
paint the latter, however, mixed with
shrewd quality of brains.
When his preparation was finished, q
large placard challenged the notice Of
all passersby with the startling legend,
postage stamps, three for 3 cents. :"
The first response to this alluring state
ment was from drummer He accosted
the postmaster, "Do you mean to say
that you actually sell three postage
stamps for niclsel?" The postmaster
replied that this was undoubtedly the
case. "Well," said the drummer, 81
never saw n reduction in stamps before
I'll take SO worth. / don't need 'em
but it's the best bargain in stamps ]
ever heard of.
He waited with gratified smile
while Mr.. Ashbrooke put his 50 bill in
the drawer and counted out the stamps
BY this time his expression Of compla-
cency had given place to one of chagrin,
and rs he pocketed the stamps he re.
marked, "Well, that's one on me-"
Presently winsome girl came trip
ping up with letter to her sweetheart
When she read tho placard, her eyes
sparkled with pleasure to think that the
stream of coin she was steadily pouring
into Uncle Sans Golfers was to be even
slightly diminished. She laid down a
nickel with confident air and said,
"Give me three stamps"
The obliging collector Of government
revenues pushed her out two twos and n
one. Then perhaps he didn't pay for his
little joke. Feminine scorn held the
floor in that Office for the next five min
utes. Then, with tho somewhat feeble
peroration, "Will Ashbrooke, you think
you're smart, don't you?" the offended
maiden fiounced out of the Office. -

There is record, dated S52, Of the
receipt of 12 carloads of fossil coal at
the abbey of Peterborough, and this was
assuredly not the first case of produc-
tion and delivery
The deeds of tho bishopric Of Durham
contain records Of grants of land to col
liers as far back as 1880, in various
parts of the county. In the year 1889 a
charter was granted by Henry III to the
freemen of Newcastle n-Tyne to dig
coal in the fields belonging to the cas-
tie, and il was in or about this year
that coal was first sent to London. Very
early in the fourteenth century evidence
abounds OF large consumption of coal
by smiths, brewers and others. Already
the smoke nuisance appeared, and a
commission of Edward levied fines TO
prevent it,
Another charter, or license, was grant
ed to the freemen Of Newcastle in Ed
ward Ills time to work coal within the
town walls, and in the year 1867 coal
began to be worked at Winlaton, in the
neighborhood where George Stephenson
was to evolve the locomotive 400 years
later, while himself worker at the
coal pits. ALL the Year Round.

Compressed Air.

According to statement made at the
Montreal meeting Of the American 80
ciety Of Mechanical Engineers by Su-
perintendent Heggem Of the engine
works at Massillon, o., the advantages
Of compressed air have been very pro-
nounced in the foundry operations Of
that establishment. The air is supplied
by means of three oompressors. A bell
driven compressor, 10 by 10 inches In
size, runs constantly and supplies most
Of the mir that is used, and the working
pressure is from 90 to 10 pounds; ~
Inch by inch steam driven duplex
compressor is operated by u pressure
valve, so that when the pressure Of air
falls below 60 pounds this compressor
is put I'm motion to supply the deficien-
cy--the air supply being thus main
tanned automatically. A smaller steam
driven compressor is also kept as re-
serve In case Of accident to either of the
other machines. The air Is stored In
three reservoirs of $50 cubic feet capac-
ity each, and these reservoirs are placed
In those parts Of the works where the
greatest volume OF air is required, and,
owing to the intermittent use of the air,
the compressors are equal to furnishing
sufficient amount, and Mt cost OF
something like 80 per day Of ten hours.

MRS. Kendall and Servants.

The popular English actress, Mrs.
Kendall, is a stickler for outward badges
Of domestic service. She openly avows
her opinion that American servants
dress too we'll, and says: "No girl In
my house can wear fringe tell her
plainly she must part her hair and comb
II neatly back beneath cap, and she
must wear an apron and no jewelry,
but ribbon around her neck. Only q
lady's maid may wear brooch and go
without the cap, but she must wear an
apron. They must wear their caps ut
the iheater too. Why, II they didn't |
would wear one myself There must be
a distinction made somehow"
Mrs Kendall probably does not re-
member that 100 or so years ago the
social line Of demarcation was drawn at
actors and actresses, DIR. johnson desig-
mating them as amusing vagabonds. "
Nor does she evidently take into account
that in this country those employed IN
domestic service are such an important
and independent class that an employer
has commonly too great fears of hef
cook being tempted away from her by a
plain gold ring to stand at brooch on
a string Of beads. Exchange.

A GREAT FISHERMAN.
He Could Land His Prey From Waters
other Men Fished Blank.

Charles Grant had great and we'll
deserved reputation for finding q fish In
water which other men had fished blank.
This was partly because, from long fa-
miliarity with the river, he knew all
the likcliest casts, partly because he was
sure to have ut the end Of his casting
line Just the proper fly for the size of
water and condition Of weather, and
partly because Of his quiet, neat handed
manner Of dropping his line on the wa
ter. There is story still current on
Speyside illustrative Of this gift Of
Charlie in finding q fish where people
who rather fancied themselves had fail
ed-a story which Jamie Shanks TO this
day does not care to hear Mr.. Russell Of
The Scotsman had done his very best
from the quick run at the top Of the
pool Of Dalbreck, down to the almost
dead still water at the bottom of that
fine stretch, and had found no luck.
Jamie Shanks, who was with Mr..
Russell MS his fisherman, had gone over
it TO no purpose with fresh fly. They
were grumpishly discussing whether
they should give Dalbr9ck another turn,
or go on to Pool-o- Brock, the next pool
down stream, when Charles Grant made
his appearance and asked the waterside
question, "What luck?" "No luck at
all, Charliep' was Russel's answer.
"Deevil riser' was Shanks' sourer re-
ply. In his demure, purring way Charles
Grant, who, in his manner, was du-
plicate of the late Lord Granville, re-
marked, "There ought to be fish come
out of that pool" "Tak' him out,
theni' exclaimed Shanks gruflly
"well, I'll try" "quoth the soft spoken
Charlie, and just at that spot, about 40
yards from the head of the pool, where
the current slaclSens and the fish lie
awhile before breasting the upper rapid,
he hooked fish. Then it was that Rus
sci, in the genial manner which made
provosts swear, remarked, "Shanks, !
advise you to take half year at Mr..
Grants school" Fat for?" inquired
Shanks sullenly. "To learn TO fish, re-

A lady who had recently moved to u
new neighborhood was one morning
called to the door by the violent ring
ing of the bell. On the piazza stood a
dapper little man who Immediately
commenced talking at mile minute
pace: "Mornin, ma'am. Dunno wheth-
er you know mo or not. Most Of the
people round here do I'm the man that
has fits. "
The astonished lady thought that
some people claim distinction on very
strange, not to say unfit, grounds.
"Yes'm, have fits any time, any
place." he went on. "Liable to drop

lucky stars that he didn't feel called
upon "to drop down in one" right

What Did q. z. O. Menne

Zone of the most curious blundors Of
an author was that made by Thackeray,
when collecting material for his Irish
Sketch Book. Driving along road, he
saw at due intervals posts set up with
the letters g. p. o. upon them. Over
taking peasant, he inquired the mean
ing of these initials and was gravely
informed that they stood for God Pre-
serve O'Connellp Out came the tour
lists notebook, in which u memorandum
was at once jotted down OF the curious
statement. In the first edition of the
sketches the fact was duly mentioned,
but it was suppressed in all the subse
quent issues, owing to the tardy discov-
cry that the initials stood for General
Post Office, indicating that the high
way was post road"
It is due to the memory of William
Makepeace Thackeray to say that the
above happened not to him, but to Lord
Haddington when riding into Dublin
from Kingstown in 1884. See "Private
Correspondence Of Daniel O'Connell, +"

Does Your Mother Know You're Out?

Does Your Mother Know You're Out?
This cant question was current good
many years ago-I should think about
25 or 80. Perhaps it had its popularity
from some music hall song OF the time.
1t appears in almost identical words in
a comic poem published in The Mirror
of April 2S, 1888 volume 81, No. 800,
page 2S2), which is said to be an ex-
tract from Bentley's Miscellany. It is
entitled "The Meeting, After the Man
ner of Ludwig INLAND"
Five stanzas describe very sentimen-
tally how the poet lay beside fountain
dreaming of Elysian plains, of old cas-
ties, gigantic forests, troops Of nymphs,
etc., and how "lovely May" advances
toward him from the forest shade:
Straight rose and ran TO meet her,
Seized her hand; the heavenly blue
OF her bright eyes smiled brighter, sweoter
AS she asked me, "Who are you9'
TO this question came another
What its aim still must doubt
And she asked mo: "How's your motherS
Does she know that you arc outH'
"Noi my mother does not know Il,
Beauteous heaven descended Musei"
"Then of get you, my handsome poet,
And say sent you with the news"

Curious, but True.

Although difficult to believe, it is
nevertheless true that the death of two
half sisters, the daughters of the same
father, occurred 170 years apart. The
grandfather of the British minister,
Charles James Fox, Sir Stephen Fox,
married in 1864, and had daughter
born to him in 1906, who died in the
course Of the same year. He had several
other children, who grew up and mar
ried. but all Of them died before the
father, and without issue. Sir Stephen,
not wishing his large fortune to fall in
to the hands Of distant relatives, mar
ried again at very advanced age, and
his youngest daughter was born in 1877.
She reached tho age of 9S years, and
died in 1926, that is 170 years after the
death of her Oldest sister. She saw
Queen Victoria when the latter was q
child, while her half sister was carried
in the arms of Oliver Cromwell.
