A HOP SALE.
Unexpected Results of squire Lanes
Advice to Grower.

Unexpected Results of Squire Lanes
Advice tn Grower.
This hop storyis "too good TO keep"
and 1t Ia true to the letter A few
years ago Burlington hop grover
came into the Office of our neighbor.
A. Lane, with sample of his hops.
Just harvested aud baled; he asked if
he was buying hops; yes, he was; the
sample was then shown and the ques-
tion asked what wouldhe give for them.
They are so poor" said Mr.. Lane.
"that L can make You no offer for
them"
II know they are little off color. 3"
said the grower, "but certainly you
can pay something for them; make
me an offer"
mo, L really cannot; there is no
market for such hops"
Cant you give me ten cents for
them?"
Il cannot"
"Well, that's rather tough; but you
can tell me what 1 better do with the
hops"
My advice to you is this: Do not
show that sample to any one else: it
viii give your hops n bad name: but
go home, keep quiet about them. and
the first buyer that comes along and
makes you an offer, don't talk about
the hops, but take him up Mt once"
1t was about this time that Mr..
Lane had employed a new aud rather
inexperienced man, who, however, was
aihop grower, to go out and buy him n
hundred bales of really choice hops"
at not over sixteen cents.
A few days later the Burlington
grower drove up to the Iron Clad"
on load of hops and shouted out: 81
say, Mr.. Lane, where will you have
these hops taken?"
"What hops-not those you offered
to sell me?"
"Sartin sure, Squire, the same
hops"
But did not buy them. !,
True, but your agent did. II
supposed there must have been prev
ty big rise in few days"
Take them down to our storehouse.
and come in for your money"
This was done, and then Mr.. Lane
said to his Burlington customer:
Here is your check have done
you favor, and now L will give Won
the opportunity to do Inc one"
What is it? I'd like to accommo-
date You, if / can.
ut is this: You draw the money on
this check, deposit it to your credit,
give me your check for half the money,
and then draw your hops away and
sell them to some one else-perhaps
for sixteen cents"
THANK you, Squire, but ] believe
| don't want to buy those hops. -

she had n heart which seemed to turn

ANTlPATHY AMONG ANIMALS.
Different Species OF Beasts Dislike Each
other.

The likes and dislikes of animals
are unaccountable. Some horses take
a violent prejudice against certain
men, even though they are treated
kindly and though the mans moral
character is fair. Between the cat and
dog there is violent antipathy, which,
however, is not frequently displayed
by mutual respect, and even affection
In exceptional cases. The elephant
hates dogs and rats. Cows dislike
dogs. and so do sheep, and, what seems
stranger, are particularly partial to
bears. On the other hand, horses loathe
and detest camels and refuse to be de-
Gently civil to them after long acuuaint-
ance. They even hate the place where
camels have been, which seems to be
carrying race prejudice to an extreme.
Evolutionists are accustomed to ex-
plain these instructive feelings rs sur
vivals of ancestral enmities dating from
the days when one race preyed on the
other. This would account for the
natural enmity of cows to dogs. for
when COWS were wild they were obliged
to defend their calves from bands of
predatory wild dogs. But why should
the horse like dogs? 1t is but the
other day that the wild horses organ
lied to defend their colts from wolves
in our Western prairies What could
the ancestral horse have had a6ninst
the ancestral camel of million years
ngo? Above all why should the horse
approve of the bear? 1t must he that
the horse has dormant sense of beau
ty and OF humor. The ideal OF the
horse is grace, combined with strength.
He disapproves from the bottom Of
his nature of the hopelessly vulgar,
awkward and unaesthetical camel. The
bear, he sees at once, though clumsy.
is unpretentious, truthful and not de
void of n sense Of humOr. The dog he
recognizes as good fellow, compan-
ionablo not unselfish. He therefore
forgets his ancestral predictions habits.
A strong bond between the dog and
the horse is that they are both fjnd of
sport, whereas n camel would not go
nm inch 10 see the best race that was
ever run
The horse does seem n little preiu-
diced in the case Of the camel. but it
is fine, aristocratic, unreasonable
prejudice he has. And we like him
for himself and for showing that the
evolutionists cannot exp ain all the
sentiments Of refined and highly or
gained animal Man, of course they
can account for in every particular. -

a true gentleman usually feels that
1t is as essential to be courteous to the
least as to the greatest, but etiquette
does not always recognize this. The
famous Talleyrand is reported to have
used a graduation of politeness in ask
ing his guests to take beef at dinner
party that he gave. The grade ran
thus:
TO n prince Of the blood: "AIay
have the honor of sending your royal
highEess a little beef?"
TO a duke "Monseigneur, permit
me TO send you little beef?"
To marquis: Marquis, may I
send you little beef?"
To n viscount: "Yiscount, pray
have n little beef.
To C baron: Baron, do you take
beei?"
To an untitled gentleman: Mon
sieur, some beef?"
To his Private Secretary: "Beef?'
But there was yet an inferior per-
sonage present, and to him Talleyrand
Uttered no word He simply looked
at him, and made an interrogative
gesture with the carving knife. But
if the meat were good, some Of us
would not trouble much how we were
invited 10 Tilt Bits.

since | was child. My mother did
not approve of my writing. One day
after school went to my room. had
been studying the historic period of
the poem, and the incident impressed
itself so strongly on my mind that [
felt impelled to write about it, / was
about half way through when my
mother came in, saying young friend
had come to spend the afternoon and
take tea with me. In great distress [
called out: ooh, mother, can't she wait
little while?' My mother, thinking
! was solving hard problem in arilh-
metic, said she would Gmuse my friend
until i could leave. At last L finished
it and put it away.
Two or three years later / wanted n
poem qualification in Detroit paper.
to which 1 had been in the habit of
contributing short poems gratuitously.
/ was unable at the time to write, as
usual, and, on looking over my papers,
found this one, which / decided to
send, though doubling its acceptance,
as 1t was too long. A day or two after

and immediate success. "-Philadel-
