Croas Examination OF the Sausage Maker
BOthers Him.

CHICAGO, Jan. 26.-The cross exam
nation OF Adolph l.. Luetgert was re-
sumed by State Attorney Deneen when
the sausage makers trial for wife muir
der was called. Questions that consti-
tuted a serious attack on his business
integrity were put to Luetgert by the
state attorney and at times the de-
fendant became somewhat perplexed.
The prisoner was asked whether he
had not falslfied the books of his sau-
sage concern in order to sell II, whether
he had not burned the books, whether
he had not shipped goods from the fac
tory In order to defraud his creditors
and II he had not told several persons
that he had laid plans to defraud Fore
man Bros, the bankers, when they
should take an inventory Of stock at
the sausage factory,
To all questions however, Luetgert
had but one answer. II do not recollect
any such thing"

The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1898-11-04

One Of the most absurd fads Of the
cigar trade Is that of color III reference
to havanas The idea prevails that color
is indicative of strength. 1t is no such
thing. \ light or medium colored cigar
is not necessarily mild or medium in
flavor, for the simple reason that the
color refers to the outside wrapper only,
which in itself is of very thin substance,
and in quantity is of very small proper
ton to the other materials that make
up tho cigar. As matter of fact, the
filters and bunch wrappers will deter
mine the body or strength of the cigar.
The actual strength or otherwise Of the
inner body of the cigar-vi2, filters and
bunch wrappers-is too often an I'M
known quantity. 1t is quite true that
a statement may be made that these
parts are so-and-so or a mixture of this
and that and give a certain ash, etc,
but this explains nothing. Not only ar"
there various grades of the same tobacco
in relation to quality, but there are also
variety of grades that determine
strength. With the exception that GER
tain tobaccos have varying degrees OF
body or otherwise, a mild, medium or
full cigar is largely a matter of chance.

THE SECRET or DAINTTNEss.

Daiutiness is that undetinable quail
ity in girl which causes her to APP
pear more charming in her young,
sweet freshness and tidiness than
those around her; it is an attribute
which is seldom Unborn, but the re-
suit of culture. Sheis certain OF max
ing good impression where others
ANONYMOUSLY fail to do so, fact
which causes jealousy and makes
those who are not dainty look on with
euvious admiration and wish that
they, too, possessed the subtle charm.
Daintiness, however, though not
inherited, is the outcome OF habit. \
girl is dainty because she has been
accustomed to give thought and time
tc being agreeable to others. Thus it
comes natural to her. Her wealth of
hair, always so glossy and carefully
trained, owes its satiny appearance
to the fact that she brushes it regular
~ and frequently, aud not solely
when she feels in Il mode to do SO, or
when she desires to look extra nice.
Her pretty, soft hands, with their
shell-like pink nails, are always in an
immaculate condition, tor it is her
habit and pride to keep them spot
lessly clean.
llSl p0If Ol tipIChi9 ~ SLiCi ttiOuiit
her fragrant perfume, delicate yet J
quite perceptibe This subtle fra
GRANGE comes from her dainty way OF
putting her dresses into drawers
which contain sachets of sweet-sIneI-
ing powder, the scent from which
seems to be part Of herself.
THE BED TAS FULL.
The Rev. Daniel IsaacS once called
at an inn TO stay over night. On ask
ing for bed he was told that he could
not have one, as there was TO be q bali
that evening, and all the beds were
engaged.
what time does the ball break
up?" asked Mr.. Isaacs.
About three in the morning"
"Well, then" can Lave bed IN
till that tine:'
Yes, certainly, but if the bed is
asked for you will have to remove"
Very well" replied Mr.. Isaacs,
and away he went to get between the
sheets.
About three in the morning he was
awoke by loud knocking at his cham
Der door.
What do you WANT" he asked
"How many are there Of you in
there?n
There's me and Daniel and Mr..
Isaacs aud an old Methodist preach
er," was the reply.
Then by thunder. there's plenty of
you" and the speaker passed on,
leaving Mr.. lsaacs to enjoy his nap.

1t is the bit OF truth i'll every SANDER,
the hint of likenesssin every caricature,

Beware OF the angry man. He who
cannot control his temper is like wild
beast, not to be tempered with.
Habit grows on man like death
slow, unperceived and sure. No man
becomes anything OF p sudden. What
ever he is, is the result of former years,
applied or misapplied.
There is no excuse for violent man.
He may say he cannot govern his pas
sions, nor hinder them from breaking
out: but, what he can do before his
superiors. or for policy sake, he can
always do if he will.
