JOKE ON ARTEMUS WARD.
The Humorist Cot the Worst of it in Bit
of Horseplay.


The Bookman has an interesting ar
ticle on Artemus Ward, dealing at
considerable length with his expert
ences in London. When he made his
first appearance in that city he en-
riched his programmes with a note ex-
planning that he would call on citizens
at their residences and explain any
jokes that they did not understand.
Artemus Ward was fond of telling
stories and jokes at his own expense,
and he had habit when upon the lee
ture platform of purposely making
people laugh at his own awkwardness,
but he had one experience that he new
err referred to. During a part of the
time that he lived in Cleveland he
lived at a fashionable boarding house
in Seneca street and was in the habit
Of cutting up all sorts of capers there,
to the amusement, sometimes, but as
often to the CONSERVATION, of the other
boarders, most of whom looked upon
him as a "half-baked fool"
One of his favorite jokes was to
scare women nearly to death by pre-
tending to fall down stairs. The par
lor where the boarders congregated
was connected by a large arch with the
hall, where the stairway was, practi-
cally making one big room of both
Every time new boarder or strang-
er happened to be present, Mr.. Browne
as he was known around the house
would cough at the top of the stair
way, to attract attention, then pre-
tend to trip on something, and &c
tumbling headlong downward, always
managing to catch the railing and thus
escape injury. The women would. oil
course, yell and make a great fuss over
him, when he picked himself up, and
he would generally manage to make
some droll remark that would set eV-
erybody laughing
But this sort of thing got tiresome
after a while, and one day some of the
men boarders decided to stop it, A
young lady had just arrived at the
house, and it was foregone conclu-
sion that Browne would take his Gus
tomary tumble at the first opportunity
So, promising the landlady that they
would have things properly repaired
after the trouble was over, the joker's
enemies sawed the spindles in the bal
ustrade almost in two, leaving the raj
so that a slight wrench would break il
loose.
That evening all the boarders con.
gregated in the parlor, the newly ar.
rived young lady, who had been lei
into the secret, among them. They
didn't have long to wait for their vic
tim. In passing up to his room
Browne saw that a stranger was pres
ent, and, after making his toilet, he
started to go downstairs. He cougheC
loudly several times while passing
through the upper hall, and then. wher
he saw that everybody was looking a
him, stumbled and shot out into the
air.
But when he grasped the rail of the
balustrade there was a sharp crack
followed by a crash, and the man whC
sfterward became famous as A. Ware
lay stunned at the bottom of the stairs
with a skinned elbow and a bleeding
nose.
That ended the stairway joke, anC
Browne soon moved to another board
ing house.

PARLOR AND PANTRY.
"PURE CULINARY RUBBISH"
Better Food on the Tables is as Desirable
as the Ballot for Women.

Better Food the Tables is as Desirable
the Ballot for Women.
CULINARY Rubbish" was the subject
OF a recent lecture delivered by Mrs
Emma p. Ewing, teacher of cookery
and domestic economy, in the Hall Of
Philosophy, Chautauqua, N. Y. Among
other things she said: Our bodies are
filed with more disease and our souls
with more pollution from the charac-
ter of our cooking than from the form
of our food material. Candor compels
me to say that consider at least nine
tenths of the information recently Of
fered in scientific treatises in regard
to the preparation of food, pure Gull
mary rubbish; it is the theoretical out
put of men and women who have no
practical acquaintance with the top
les upon which they attempt to give
expert instruction.
1.-THE ballot in the hands of woman
would undoubtedly right many wrongs.
But would it put better food upon our
tables? In my judgment, good bread
in every home is as desirable as ball
lot in the hands of every woman. We
can have the bread without laborious
effort. Let us have it while working
and waiting for the ballot.
"a given quantity of food, judicious-
ly selected and sldllfully prepared, will
yield a much greater amount of nutri-
ton and appease hunger better than
twice that quantity will when injudi-
ciously selected and unskilfully pre-
pared. If we desire National health
and prosperity we must give more at
tention to the preparation of food,
and look more cheerfully after our
kitchen interests. A large proportion
of the culinary literature of to-day is
rubbish, unfit to be read. A large pro-
portion of the fruitage of the cookery
of to-day is rubbish, unfit to be eaten.
And it will be a blessed day for us all
when nine-tenths of the cookboOks are
banished from our libraries, and nine
tenths of the culinary atrocities from
our tables
