JULES vERNE's MANNERS.
The Great Writer Is Simple. Quiet ans
Modest.

Modest.
If, meeting him without knowing
who he was, had been asked to divine
his profession, I would have said he
was a retired army general or profes.
sor of physics and mathematics or a
cabinet officer-never an artist, says a
writer in the Chautauquan of Jules
Verne. He does not show the burden of
his almost so years; he has somewhat
of Verdi's build, with serious, kindly
face. no artist-like vivacity in look or
word. very simple manners, the i'm
print of great sincerity in every fleet
ing manifestation of feeling and
thought. the language, the bearing, the
manner of dress of a man who con-
siders appearances of absolutely no ac-
count. My first sensation after the
pleasure of seeing him was one of stupe-
faction. Apart from the friendly look
and the affable demeanor could rec
ognize nothing in common with the
Verne who stood before me and the one
that had place in my Imagination.
My wonder even increased when, in
liuced to speak about his works, he
spoke of them with an distracted air,
as he would have done of some one else's
writings. or rather of things in which
entered no merit of his-as he would
have spoken of a collection of engrav-
ngs or coins he had acquired, and with
which he occupied himself more from
the necessity of doing something than
from any passion for the art.

PAPER BAGS AND HARD TIMES
One Industry That Thrives on COndi
lions That Wreck Others.

One Industry That Thrives on COndi-
lions That Wreck Others.
The manufacture of paper bags is an
industry which depends largely on its
prosperity to a prevailing condition of
hard times. The more stringent the
financial pressure becomes, the more
paper bags are used, says the Chicago
Chronicle. In the grocery stores GUS
toners will come in who, instead of
ordering bushel of potatoes, will or
der quart of potatoes and carry them
home in paper bag. Groceries of all
kinds are purchased in small quantities,
and the paper bag is used almost eX-
clusively to do up, not only groceries,
but fruit, vegetables and candies. A
customer in hard times will drop in
and buy half pound of tea. In a few
days he will come in again and buy
another half pound. In good times he
would have bought couple of pounds,
and one bag would have wrapped it up.
1t is so with all kinds of groceries and
everything purchasable for which pa
per bags can be used, and the only real
complaint which will be found coming
from the paper bag manufacturers will
be on the occasion of prosperous times
coming on us again. The paper bag
mills are doing a thriving business now,
and until the growing evidences of
prosperity eliminate in a general re-
sumption of business activity through
out the country, they will not lack for
a constant and large demand for their
goods. But when the mechanic begins
to buy potatoes by the bushel, apples
by the peck, coffee by fve-pound pack
ages and -four by the barrel, then the
paper bag will hide its diminished head
and prosperity be with us once more.

First German Book.

Brewer says the first book printed in
the German language was the "EdeI-
Eein," or Precious Stone," in 1851, by
ulrich Boner. Seven years before this,
however, in 1854, Gutenberg and Faust
printed in Latin an indulgence issued
by Pope Nicholas v. to Paulinus Chappe,
an ambassador to the king of Cyprus.
There is much conflict among the au-
thorities as to the dates of the earlier
copies OF the Faust and Gutenberg
books. and in many cases the exact
time of their issuance is coniectural.
