He Obeyed Orders.

A young man, just arrived from
Wales. recently obtained situation as
waiter in large public house in Man
chester. All went well with Taffy from
the Monday ON which he started until
the Thursday following, when the man
ager told him TO go and clean the lamps
outside the house.
Taffy took ladder and cleaning rags
and cleaned the four big lamps outside
the house, and farther on he saw several
other lamps and went ON cleaning them,
first ON one side of the road and then on
the other, until the manager begun to
wonder at Taffy being so long and went
outside to look for him, but to his as
constituent Taffy could not be seen any
where about
A few hours after Taffy came in with
his bucket empty and told the manager
that he wanted more water as he had
several more lamps TO clean. The man
ager asked him where the ladder was,
and Taffy told him he had left it stand
ing against lamp about mile up the

ArI.tocratic English marriages.

The ideal wife of the aristocracy--
does not exist. The British arislv :rat
has no ideals. He was born cysucal,
with good humored, matter Of fact,
man of the world sort of cynicism. and
hecarries his congenital creed unabashed
through the world with him. He sows
his wild oats in many fields; then be
marries, for the settlements. His wife is
rich or beautiful, or both. She lives in
society. He and she go their own ways
forthwith, and those ways usually land
one or the other in the divorce court.
Occasionally both Of them reach that
goal together. They smile and part, aft
er rearranging the settlements which
form the practical basis; thence they
drift into the world once more and be-
gin again da capo. Their ideal is to en-
Joy themselves; in their own reckless
way they usually attain it. Grant Al

onIta Possible.

A correspondent asks il it is not prac-
ticablo for person to carry enough
stored electricity and use it for the pur-
pose Of heating the body in Cold weather
by means Of system Of electric heating
apparatus placed under the clothing.
We presume it is. A few 200 ampere
hour cells scattered among the pockets,
connected in series, ought to do the
business. They would probably weigh
500 pounds or more, and to this must be
added the weight of heat apparatus.
The latter need not necessarily be in the
form of street car heater. 1t could be
spread out on fiat surface. 1t would
not look well, for instance. to carry a
box shaped heater across the stomach.
Care must be taken to prevent short cir
cutting, which might result in roasting
to death. Electrical Age.

Cause of Red Noses.

II is stated by The Popular Health
Magazine Of this city that ''redness Of
the nose" is caused by indigestion. not
intemperance. The remedy. it is stated,
is to ''abstain from overindulgence in
fats and sweets. This dictum will be
appreciated by many worthy people
whose noses are unduly rosy. For years
they have been misjudged by irreverent
scoffers who did not scruple to ascribe
the nasal tint to excessive imbibitions.
Now science comes to their relief. 1t is
"fats and sweets" that make the trouble,
causing indigestion, which produces a
rush Of blood to the nose. Some persons
given to alcoholic stimulants do indeed
have red noses, but the redness is sto-
machic, not alcoholic. The ''firewater"
may ''burn out ones coppers, and thus
indirectly produce the luminous probes

to assert that it is an error to say
drinking did it. Baltimore Sun.

Making Old Potatoes New.

This is the way new potatoes are man
ufactured in Paris: Old potatoes, the
cheapest and smallest that can be pur-
chased, are bought by the rafistoleurs
de pommes de terre. as they are called,
who carry their property to the banks Of
the Seine, good supply of water being
necessary. The potatoes are put into
tubs half filed with water; then they
are vigorously stirred about by the feet
and legs of the manufacturers, who roll
mp their trousers and stamp ON the raw
potatoes until they have not only COM
pletely rubbed off their dark skins, but
have also given them that smooth and
satinlike appearance which is so much
appreciated by gourmands. They are
then dried, neatly wrapped in paper and
arranged in small baskets, which are
sold aS the narchands DIES comestibles
for 5 francs apiece The oldest part of
the whole business is that the rafisto-
leurs make no secret Of their trade and
may daily be seen at work near the
Point Louis Philippe, within sight of
the Hotel do Vile.

Fighters of Indians need to be men Of
quick wit and steady hand. Such n
man was John Hawks, one Of the set
tiers Of Hadley. Mass. An exploit Of this
pioneer in 1870 is narrated by the his.
torian of Deerfield. The Indians had
made an attack upon Hatfield, and
troops from other towns had gone 10 the
rescue. Among the men from Hadley
was John Hawks.
Soon after the Hadley men got ashore
John Hawks, who was behind tree,
heard some one call him by name A
Pocumtuck Indian, who had taken a
position behind another tree, had recog-
nized Hawks as AN old acquaintance.
Hawks returned the compliment, and
each man began taunting the other and
daring his enemy TO come into the open
and fight the thing out.
The Indian had the best of it and
was perfectly aware Of his advantage
At any moment some Of tho gathering
Indians were likely to come up behind
Hawks and force him out Of his cover.
Under such circumstances of course the
Indian was in no haste to expose him
self.
However, the white man was not
blind to the danger of his own situa-
ton. Something must be done, and that
speedily. He knew what his adversary
counted upon, and that gave him his
clew.
All at once lee sprang from behind his
tree and leveled his gun as if to repel
an attack from another direction. The
Pocumtuck took the bait and sprang for
ward. He would capture Hawks the mo-
ment his gun was empty.
Quick as thought the white man
wheeled, and before the Indian could
raise his gun or reach his cover gave
him fatal shot. 1t was all the work of
few seconds, and Hawks, though
wounded in the ensuing fight, lived to
fight other battles.
