Judging Oysters by Smell.

oyster that indicates its condition TO

ably on account OF their taste. Soal.
30 do they buy tea, collee and the
various grades OF whisky aud brandy
for their taste, but all experts on those
things pass upon them entirely by
their smell. The professional tea

strikes oystermen as strange when
they see persons going about from
boat to boat, rs they lie at the wharf,
tasting oysters before they conclude
TO buy. Taste is all right. but il they
don't smell right they will never taste

The Worlds Newsoaners


A statistician has learned that Tho
annual aggregate. circulation of the pa
pers OF, the world is calculated to be
100000 copies. To grasp any an: idea,
of this magnitude we may state that it
would cover no fewer than IL, $50 square
miles of surface; that it is printed en-
781, ,25O tons of paper, and, further, that
if the number Q2,000,OOO, ,O00) repre-
sented, instead of copies, seconds, it
would take over S33 years for them to
elapse. In lieu of this arrangement
we might press and pile them vertically
upward to gradually reach our. highest
mountains. Topping all these. and
even the highest Alps, the pile would
reach the magnificent altitude Of 400
or, in round numbers, 500 miles. Cal
culating that the average man spends
five minutes reading his paper in the
day fhis is a very low estimate), we
find that the people of the world al
together annually occupy time equiya-
lent to 100000 years reading the papers.

the occasional bank robberies and the.
failures, too, keep alive the fondness.
Of women for searching for queer hid
ing places for their savings. Some Of
the old-time blanks, showed consider
able ingenuity in their construction or
covering.
An old lady living in New Hamp-
shire town had 4 set of large station
arY drawers, topped by cupboards.
built into one of her huge closets The.
lower drawer, instead Of resting di- 4
rectiy on the floor, ran on grooves per-
maps two inches above it. She would
pull out the lower drawer, place her
Jewel cases i'll the space left below.
and then push in the drawer, which
she kept well filed with linen.
Equally shreWd was an Ohio woman
VINO, whenever she went out. put her
money and jeWeiry in the coal scuttIe,
covering them up carefully with sew
eral layers of coal. This might have
proved a rather risky experiment in
the winter months when the fire had
to be fed; but their owner felt no bur-
glar would never think Of looking
there. a@ s
favorite hiding place for money,
especially for bills Of large denomina-
tions, has always been the big family
Bible and the unabridged dictionary
This is still common in rural places.
So is the practice OF sticking money
snugly away under corner of the
carpet, particularly under some large
piece Of furniture. This is a method
:hatshas much to commend it. s
Lea caddies and sugar. bowls make
excellent temporary safes. Another
hiding place is the old-fashioned coun
try clock, which is almost historic as,
a spot for tucking away little bundles,
