Rich Man. Poor Man.

A short time ago man who had seen
better days approached several benevo-
lent looking gentlemen at well know
hotel, asking for meal. Each one re-
pulsed him, until finally a reporter,
who had just been paid off, invited
him to have snack with him. 1t was
good snack, too, and it took all the re-
porter's money, but he said it was a
satisfaction to him to know that the
poor man had one square meal at last.
The incident reminded me of the rich
man who told the poor man to work.
He said he couldn't get work, but still
the rich man said, "You must work. :"
Some time after the rich man fell into
the water and called to the poor man to
rescue him. "Swim," said the poor
man. "But 1 can't SWIM" said the rich
man. "Well, said the poor man, "you
must SWIM" When a man asks aims,
it is always well to consider that some
day the situation may be reversed, and
then the man who can't swim must
drown. Traveller.

SOME NEW FOOD PLANTS.
Mr.. Carton Claims He Has Discovered
Ways of Producing Them.

What is alleged to be the discovery of
Mr.. Carton, an English agriculturist, has
been tested exhaustively with the greatest
success at the Earl of Winchilsea 5 expert
mental farm at Sleaford, England II
consists Of applying the principle of cross
fertilization 10 grasses clovers, cereals
and other food plants
The Earl of Winchilsea's secretary says
that the experiments were made not only
with plants grown i'm the United King
dom, but with those of all foreign agricul-
tural countries. Special varieties that are
best suited to any particular soil or eli
mate can therefore be produced.
The experiments have not been made
public hitherto in order that "a sufficient
quantity of seed might be raised to supply
the demand when the important results
were made known. Mr. Carton has al
ready received applications from some for
-eign governments for seed.
The United States have effected crosses
of wheat. but have not attempted to cross
barley or oats. Mr. Carton has succeeded
in all his efforts, and Great Britain is
thus enabled 20 take the lead in supplying
the world with now varieties of grains.
This will be potent factor in restoring
prosperity TO British agriculture.
DIR. Goodfcllow, an expert writes that
Mr. Carton methods Of producing mar
Vicious permanent types of cereals are most
unique and original, and that compare.
-tivcly useless cereals are converted there
10y into the most valuable food plants. -

C0stly Pipes.

Among the pipes shown at jewelry
establishment was one of meerschaum,
with an amber mouthpiece. the bowl
being crowned with gold mounting
that covered the rim around the top and
extended down the sides TO the depth OF
perhaps a quarter of an inch below the
edge. On top the mounting was fiat and
smooth; below the edge, on the ades,
it was etched. The price of this pipe
was $ll0. The owner of pipe with a
gold rim around the top might smoke
it, or it might be that he would let it
lie on his table.
Jeweled pipes are not an article OF
common sale, but they are not so I'M
common as to be remarkable Such
pipes are usually mounted TO order, and
they are probably always bought for
gifts They are variously mounted,
sometimes with band of diamonds and
rubies around the bowl at the top, some
times diamonds are set around the stem
where the mouthpiece joins it. A jew
eled pipe may cost $3.50,
Silver mounted meerschaum pipes at
$50 are articles of regular sale There
are pipes of this sort at prices ranging
from $50 to $75. These are not carved
pipes, but usually perfectly plain. They
are of the finest materials and work
manship and Of fine designs.
There are perfectly simple little brier
pipes with a plain silver mounting and
amber mouthpiece that sell at SIS, but
the brier is the very choicest and hand
soonest the amber mouthpiece Of the
finest quality and joined to the pipe by
lock STEM and all the workmanship
on the pipe is of the best. They are the
very finest of brier pipes. New York
