The Order Was Givon by the Man whom
He Made Tired.
Now and then Chicago draws a chap
pie in the great shuttle of life. The other
day one arrived here from an inland
town who had few points to spare in
his trunk.
He took up his residence in an aristo-
cratic family hotel, where he appeared
religiously each night at a o'clock
dinner in the evening dress Of a second
class swell This was all very commend
able and cleanly, and not at all extraor-
dinary where so per cent Of the men
did the same thing
But the good impression awakened by
the chastity of the newcomers appear
ance in the ineffable bosom and tie was
obscured by his attempt to order his
dinner in as much French as he deem
ed would be ineligible. The sorority
Of his final order for a demitasse
was good for all the surrounding tables,
if not for the buffers pantry.
As the first week rolled on the young
man grew more Frenchy, more mellow,
more metropolitan in spirit, and on the

made his way to the smoking room,
where he arranged himself dangerously
and picturesquely in an easy chair.
Near him was the station Of a small

"Garconl Garconw called out the
oriental one, but little William stood,
with his heavy, seallike eyes rolled up

regardless and needless of the over
whelming honor being done him.

"Some brains, William, for this
chap" growled an apoplectic man OF
the other side of the room. m.-ChicagC

GOLD Arp sIlvER PLATING.
Process That 10 Described as Simple by
a Professional.

4 Process That Il Described as simple by
Professional.
The following is a very simple method
FOR gold and silver plating Take an
ounce Of nitrate of silver, which is
made as follows: One ounce of fine sill
yer, one ounce nitric acid, one-half
ounce water. Put the silver into Flor
ence flask, then pour in the acid and
water. Place the flask on the sand bath
for few moments, taking care not to
apply too much heat, and as soon as
chemical action becomes violent remove
the flask to a cooler place and allow the
action to go ON until it nearly slacks,
when, if there is any silver still remain
ing, the flask may be placed on the bath
again until the silver disappears. If the
acid employed is weak, it may be neces-
sary to add little more. The red fumes
formed when chemical action is going
on disappear when the acid has done its
work
The nitrate of silver formed during
the above operation should be poured
into q porcelain capsule and heated IN
til a pellicle appears on the surface,
when it may be set aside to crystalline.
The uncrystallized liquor should be
poured from the crystals into another
vessel and heat applied until it has
evaporated sufficiently. to crystalline.
Then you have nitrate of silver. Take
an ounce Of nitrate Of silver, dissolve in
quart of distilled rainwatcr When
thoroughly dissolved, throw in "A few
crystals of hyposulphite of soda, which
will at first form brown precipitate,
but which becomes redissolved if enough
hypOsulphite has been added. There
must be present a slight excess Of this
salt The solution is now complete.
Take "a sponge, dip it in the solution
and rub it over the work TO be plated.
A solution Of gold may be made in
the same way and applied as described.
A concentrated solution Of either gold
or silver may be used for work that has
been worn off by applying it with a
camel's hair brush and touching it with
a strip of zinc. The writer has used this
method with the most satisfactory sue
cess. The gold or silver used in making
must be perfectly fine. Jewellers Cir

SOME VALUABLE HINTS REGARDING
THE GR1PPE-sIGNS OF ITS AP-
PROACH AND HOW TO COUNTER

The discussion as to the cause Of the
Grippe is. of course, interesting. but gives
little satisfaction to it's unfortunate VIC
tins. Whether caused by microbe or
vagaries Of the weather, its ravages con-
tinue. and the country still bends under
the scourge.
It cannot be too strongly impressed on
people that, IN order to ward off the dis
ease, warning symptoms must be re-
garded and prompt action taken 1t be-
comes extremely difficult to dislodge the
disease II allowed to take its course.
Hence it's name. 1t generally commences
with a slight headache, or pains in the
small of the back or limbs. IL does not

feeling about the eyes. may be all
the caution one gets so II Is culpable care

signs.
ih remedy lies in a stimulant and the
preference should be given to whiskey.
All the doctors of the country are agreed
on this point but are very careful to Inn
press on their patients the fact that pure
whiskey alone must be taken. Duffy S
Pure Malt Whiskey is the purest on the
market, and can be readily obtbained at
all drug stores. There are many imitators
who say their whiskies are Just as good.
