Nonsense! saw you when you cut

Cleaves-YOu re sharp one, you are,

Leastwise, l don't. Let me tell you the

Next he reached into another pocket and

Kissing.

An English journal prints the follow
ing "A very disagreeable habit of the
king of Portugal is that he kisses his
male friends. The princes Of our reign
ing house all do this, and of course it is
common enough abroad but, thank
heaven, so far this nasty looking (no
matter how really innocent) habit has
never become fashionable in this coun-
try. 1t is of course all mere question
of etiquette, but let us fervently pray
that En- lish-nen when they meet with
or PAR from their friends will never get
to think it the correct thing to kiss one
another. Etluuette in parting varies all
over the world. In America the men
shake hands ami the women kiss one an
other and sometimes cry, for the Amer
ican ladies are champion weepists. In
France and in Italy even more the wom-
Ell weep, while the men kiss and hug
one another almost as vigorously as if
they were in a wrestling match. An
English woman shakes hands with a
man of her acquaintance, while in Spain
she always gives her hand to be kissed.
1t makes the same sensation in Madrid
for a man to take q woman's hand and
shake it as It would = Icndor fer for

Bestty's Organs and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing
ton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless plow boy, and by his indomit-
able will he has worked his way up
SO as to sell so far, nearly 1O0,0 900 of
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends to sell 2O0,-
600 more of his make; that means a
business of SIC, 900 900, if we average
them at 500 each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.
Beatty, Washington, New Jersey, fer

The shop Has Brains.

The tendency of successful business is
to enlargement, and with enlargement
come a new multitude of agents, new
variety of markets, new kind of COM
petitive danger, TO avert which absolute
ly requires mind. The very number of
his employees compels the great trades
man of our day to become a judge of
character; the very expansion of his
market drives him to study many coun-
tries, many tariffs, many laws, and his
extreme danger from competition makes
of him an artist, chemist and a critic.
The process is slow, because he is al
ways governed by the idea of selling,
and he often learns rather to know pub
lie taste than to know what taste is and
to seek in his purchases the popular
rather than the good, but still the proc
ess must develop his mind.-LOndon
Spectator.

One Of the most characteristic features
of European prisons as a whole is that
prisoners are allowed 10 have potion
Of their earnings. This system prevails
in France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland,
Russia, Sweden, Denmark and other
countries. The amount earned by the
prisoners varies considerably where it
depends upon piece work. In France the
average salary Of the prisoner is 35 cents
a day. Of this amount the prisoner is
allowed to spend one-half while in pris-
ON for supplementary food and clothing,
postage, etc, though no expenditure is
made without the approval Of the ad-
ministration. The other half is reserved
until the time of his discharge. A three
years prisoner has to his credit ON leav-
ing an average of $50, four years
prisoner $40 and five years prisoner
