SHERLOCK HOLMES PARALLEL.


A most remarkable literary coinci-
dence is pointed out by a writer In
Literature" who says 1t would be In
teresting to know IL DR.. Conan Doyle,
before creating Sherlock Holmes" had
read a certain anecdote recorded by the
Jesuit traveller Charlevoix, who died in
1761. The story Is of red Indian from
whose wigwam a piece OF meat had
been stolen, and who promptly set out
in pursuit of the thief. He had not pro-
ceeded far before he met with some
persons OF whom he inquired whether
they had seen a little old white man
with a short gun, accompanied by
small dog with a short tail. Asked how
he could thus minutely describe man
whom he had never seen, the indian
answered:
THE thief / know is little man by
his having made pile or stones 10
stand upon in order to reach the ven-
ison: that he is an old man / know by
his short steps, which / have traced
over the leaves in the woods: and that
he Is a white man / know by his turn
ing out his toes when he walks, which
an Indian never does. His gun know
TO be short by the mark the muzzle
made i'm rubbing the bark off the tree
on which IL leaned: that his dog is
small know by his tracks: and that
he has a short tail I discovered by the
mark il made In the dust where he
was sitting at the time his master was
taking down the meat
This certainly is so much like the
ratiocination OF Sherlock Holiness that
it almost reads like parody OF It,"

Why the Spaniard Has Failed
i'm the World.

A very interesting article in the Aug
ust number of the Pail Mall Ma
gazine is contributed by Mr.. Hannay,
who, from an intimate acquaintance
with Spain and the Spaniards, throws
considerable light on the Spanish char
acter. Mr.. Hannay says that the Span
lard. who has once more come before
the attention OF the world, inspires those
who really know him with somewhat
mixed feelings. Mrs. Carlyle said of
De Quincy that she alternately wanted
to hug him and to toss him In
a blanket-to hug him because he
was such a charming little man,
and to toss him in blanket be-
cause of those aimless. shiftless habits
of his, which made him we'll nigh in
tolerable to a punctual hard-headed
Scotchwoman. When one has reached
the point OF knowing the Spaniard in
timately--not only on his social side but
i'm business--one ends by feeling about
him very much i'm this way. Those
who do not know him at all, or at sec
ond hand, may take him for a ferocious
creature who only rouses himself from
sloth to indulge in excesses OF cruelty.
This picture Is about as like the real
man as is the old Continental idea or
the brutal Englishman who sells his
wife at Smithfield and commits suicide
from spleen. That he is capable OF
cruelty is true, and so are other races.
Nothing would be easier than to make
a list of abominable massacres running
all through French history down to the
Commune OF our own time. Yet we are
not asked TO call the Frenchmen cruel
at least. not to say that what pecu-
liarly distinguishes him is his cruelty.
1t can. of course. be answered that IL
other conquerors and settlers have sins
10 be recorded against them. they have
ended by establishing order and civili-
zation. and the Spaniard has not. To
that his best friends find IL difficult to
make n satisfactory answer. and they
are unable precisely because they do
know him and his weak point. III one
wants TO explain fairly why he has
| failed in the world. the answer must be
that he is the most unbusinesslike OF
mankind.

Spain and the spaniards.

II is not true that the Spaniard is
naturally cruel. The ferocities OF which
he has unquestionably been guilty have
come from his unbusinesslike Incidence.
He let's trouble come from want OF
precaution in time, and ii finds him un-
prepared Then he falls into the rage
OF the indolent man who Is aroused out
of his Incidence, and strikes savageiy.
Conduct of that kind proves his inca
pacity for government, and is seen at
it's worst where he has to deal with
Creoles, who repeat his own faults in
an exaggerated form, and with half
breeds. For that reason. among others,
he has lost his colonial empire. IL
would be a mistake, however, TO sup
pose that Spain is decaying. The pop
ulation has nearly. il not quite, doubled
I'm the present century. and the country
is In itself infinitely better off than it
was a hundred years ago. The loss OF
Cuba will be no evil for Spain, but a
gain, for II will stop dreadful drain OF
life and treasure. When there is no
colonial market to think OF, the immense
resources of the country itself will
probably be better worked. The mere
mineral wealth OF Spain ought to be
enough to make ii rich. If it has be-
gun to understand the consequences OF
bad administration, 1T may well be one
of the most prosperous parts of Eu-
rope in another generation.-Mr. David
Hannay, in the August Pail Mall Maga-
zine.

POtpOurri Jar.

Now is the time to start the fruit
potpourri jar. This requires a stone
lar with stone cover. 1t does not need
to be sealed, but may be opened any day
or every day for the addition of an
other fruit. The strawberry Is the
most delicious of any of the fresh
fruits of the summer, and 1t is now
most rich in flavor. The first thing
TO do Is to buy box of berries and
carefully and gently hull them. Weigh
them and take their weight in sugar of
the purest granulated variety and
place them both in the stone jar. COW
ering completely with the purest al
cohol. Their flavor and color are thus
preserved and a deIiciously thick syrup
Is the result.
AS other fruits ripen add them i'm any
quantity desirable or convenient, al
ways adding an equal amount of sugar
and covering the mixture with more
alcohol No system is necessary-a
single pear. a bunch of grapes, few
slices of orange or little lemonade,
the rinds of the lemons and oranges in
small quantities adding 10 the flavor.
A few of the nut meats OF peaches are
also an Improvement.
one caution the fruit must be abso-
lutely fresh when placed In the jar or IL
may spoil II all. There is only one
thing to be done after the fruit. sugar
and alcohol are placed ir the jar, and
that is To stir gently once day with a
smooth. round edged spoon.Or this may
be done only when a fresh addition is
made TO the collection.
Freshly picked fruits or imported

In spite of a trade with an unhappy

DR. Gatling was a man or miuuie

first fruit of his genius was a steam

When he invented his propeller and

of his wheat drill. After he completed

the trading stamp concern itself is the
only body that derives much business
benefit from the traffic in stamps, al
though a great many good people are
deluded into believing that they are
gamers. 1t ought to be plain that the

anthropists and that the stamp coll

GREEN THINGS FOR THE GREEN

That particularly silly device for at
tracing trade. known as the trading
stamp, is planning to do heap OF bus
mess In Rhode Island since the legis-
lature OF the neighboring state of Mass
achusetts has forbid II to continue bus
mess within it's borders.
The trading stamp idea has been
adopted by number OF reputable mer-
chants, but there is evidence that few
OF them go out OF their way TO force
these premiums upon their GUS
toners. Meantime other merchants
chafe at this new-fangled factor OF
competition.
Perhaps the trading stamp fad is
not delusion Of very great harmful
ness. IL ls only thin device for maxi

for nothing. which OF course nobody

the suppression of the trading stamp
