NEVER SAW ICE BEFORE.

cone of the funniest sights l ever
saw was a South Sea islander with his
first chunk of ice" remarked the cap
tain of Il trading schooner. Il was
lying at anchor ut one of the Naviga-
tor islands once when some natives
came aboard. 1t was an awfully hot
day, and | had just been getting some
ice up from below. The natives look
ed at it curiously, and so | handed one
a chunk. The moment ii touched his
hand he dropped it like Il hot shot and
looked at his palms to see if they were
burned.
after deal of iabbering they all
sat around it and watched it melt
They couldn't understand it at all,
and when there was nothing left but
spot on the deck they sat around it
and discussed the phenomenon.
Il put piece of ice in my mouth
and then gave them some. They
shifted it from hand to hand like a
hot coal, put the tips of their tongues
on it gingerly and finally swallowed
the chunk. 1t was a source of great
wonder to them.n

THE OMEN CAME TRUE.

called to the fact that he had thirteen
barrels of beer on his wagon, and thir-
teen was an unlucky number.

Not superstitious, hey?" laughed
the Star man,
Il don't know vot you mean by
superstition, replied the German.
But dot thirteen and Friday peeZ-
ness is all nonsense. | used to think
it vos nonsense to believe that some
body died when II dog howled' but
dot has been proved true, SO l believe

the Star writer.
We'll, | bet you. One night last

and in the middle of the night dog

Hans, you hear dot dog howl?'

Il told her dot was all blamed non

Pretty soon she woke me up some
more. Dot dog is bowling again,
Hans; and | bet you somebody will

A NEW MEANS OF Spreading THE
GOSPEL

A shrewd Philadelphian, who with
only few dollars, started in the rag
business II few years ago, now makes
it his business to call only at the res
licences of prominent clergymen.
When the servant answers his knock
at the back gate, he inquiries if she
has any old papers to sell. He offers
good prices, much better than the
average rag man. would ever dream
of giving, and in that way he gains
the servants attention at once. He
invariably goes away with a large
bundle of old manuscript which the
clergyman has consigned to the waste
paper basket. When he reaches his
shop, he thoroughly overhauls these
papers, and finds that many of them
are old sermons. He carefully asserts
the papers, and puts them together in
proper shape, after which he issues
circular to hundred or more minis
tiers throughout the surrounding coun-
try towns, offering to sell the sermons.
The country dominies pay good mon
ey for the sermons, and as a result
several of them are acquiring great
reputation as pulpit orators.

THE OLD TAR COULD NOT READ.

A pretty story comes across the water
of an old tar's tact and chivalry, which
shows that the heart of n gentleman
may beat under the oilskin coat of n
rough, illiterate sailor.
A sea captain, engaged to marry a
certain lady, sent message to her by
the hand of one of his crew. The
sailor, having delivered the letter,
gazed in silent admiration upon the
face of the lady, for she was very
beautiful
Well, my good man. said she, ''for
what do you wait? There is no an
swer.n
Lady, the sailor replied with hum
bic Difference, Il would like to know
your name"
Did you not see it on the letter?'
Pardon, lady, l never learned to
read. Mine has been hard, rough
life.n
And for what reason, my good
man would you know my namey''
Because" answered the old tar,
with gentle and manly courtesy, in IL
storm at sea, with danger of death
afore me, l would like to recall the
brightest thing I'd ever seen in life.
There'd be sunshine in it, even in the

AP4E4CE OF THE CAR.

Tsarko Selo, the Cars palace near
st. Petersburg, stands in grounds
eighteen miles in circumference. In
the palace there is a room known as
the Iapislazuli room, the floor of which
is ebony inlaid with mother of-pearl.
There is also an amber room, the
walls of which are of the finest amber
picked out in multitude of exquisite
designs. The walls of the palace
throughout are hung with the rarest
tapestry and silk curtains. The ban
quoting hall is the chief attraction of
the place. Its walls are covered with
gold for the greater part, and the
ceiling is dazzling to the sight with its
wealth of the same precious metal.
Few banquets are now held there.
When the Gar is at Tsarko Selo no
fewer than 1000 men guard the palace.

WHY He WORE RUBBERs.

doesn't that wear out your shoe?"
asked the inquisitive passenger.
He was standing on the platform of
n trolley car watching the motorman
kick the striker of the gong which
projected a few inches above the
floor of the platform. The tattoo the
motorman kept up was almost con
slant and his heavy foot arose and
fell with great regularity as wagons,
small boys and pedestrians scurried
out of the way of the flying car.
He did not reply at once to the ques
ton of the inquisitive passenger, as
a woman was waiting at the next cor
ner and he had to shut off the current
and put on the brakes considerably,
and thus had other things to think Of
But when the car started up again he
raised his right foot and placed it on
the rail of the dashboard so that the
sole of the heavy arctic overshoe could
be seen.
"See that rubber?' he asked. "Well,
I've worn it all winter. Do you see
any holes in it?''
The inqusitive passenger admitted
that it was practically as sound as the
day it came out of the factory.
well, there you are" said the
mOJOrman, VINO utlu louS sihCe pun

energetically pounding away at the
gong with it. This bell don't wear
out a rubber sole at all, but leather
one-say, it don't last no time. |

through heavy leather sole in few
weeks, but a rubber will last all winter.

though striving to make u hole in his
shoe.

MAURICE HEALY.

Tim Healy, the Irish NJ. P, has n
brother who is Il very clever barrister.
He has written book on the revision
of the voting lists which is the stand
ard authority with English iurists.
In connection with that book Il funny
incident transpired in one Of the courts
at Belfast.
The home rulers of that city had
wired to the London headquarters for
an able lawyer to fight their battle, as
they considered the local talent rather
light for such Il heavy legal contest.
They received q reply granting their
request.
The court opened, and the barrister
for the Unionist party, u clever lawyer
named Young, began an able and eX-
haustive argument why the names of
certain individuals should not be re-
tanned on the list. The home rulers
were wringing their hands in despair,
for the man from London had not APP
peared-at least no one had seen him.
AS Young continued, rendering quo
tation after quotation in support of his
assertions, the poor Nationalist be
came frantic. Suddenly there was Il
lull in the proceedings. y modest
looking young man had arisen to his
feet to ask question. Nobody knew
him.
My lord, th-th-a-I would ike

A roar of laughter resounded through
the courtroom, and even the judge
smiled The crier shouted for silence,
but the suffering of the young man
was so funny that it was some time
ere it could be secured. Once more
the stutterer tried.
My lord, just one question. From
what BIB book does the l-l-learned
gentleman quote p
Mr.. Young at once relied, "Healy's
book on revision
I'm Healy," said the gentleman
with the defect in speech.
The Judge saluted him courteously,
the opposing lawyer shook hands with
him, and the Nationalist policy, which
had been outlined as defensive, be-
came aggressive in the hands of Maui
rice Healy, whose suffering had caus-
ed such merriment, with the result
that the only home ruler, who ever sat
for the city of Belfast, or probably
ever will, was returned at the follow

This is hot weather, food
spelling weather, unless the pro-

ator suggestions. There's all
sorts Of devices for keeping food
fresh, good, bad or Indifferent.
Some of the named refrigerators
are no better than dry goods
boxes; the lining is not right
and the system of draught and
air circulation is defective.
In the United States there
were complaints against the
Quincy, complaints we had not
heard of here. When we were
at the Coast few weeks ago, we
took the trouble to investigate
and learned that the objections
were all right, but they were
against the Quincy Challenge
refrigerator and not the Quincy
Cleanable.
We sell the Cleanable, were
appointed sole agents for the
Hawaiian Islands and we don't
sell any other. The Quincy
Cleanable is lined with mineral
wool, the greatest non-conductor
known to science; the Quincy
Challenge is lined with charcoal
and is cheap combination that
is unserviceable.
Foods are easily kept sweet
and appetizing with a right re-
frigerator to help your Summer
health is easier kept than re-
gained. There are many re-
frigerators, some excellent ones
but none equal the Quincy
Cleanable. Profits are forgotten
when we sell them.
