when Gunpowder Was New.

A curious feature about this evolu-
ton in methods Of hunting was the
hesitation with which gunpowder was
taken up by the great mobiles. Not only
did it take quite a century TO familiar
ize hunters with it, but the evidence
that has come down to US shows that
the humble classes were the first to use
it for shooting game. Macmillan, ar
dent sportsman that he was, tells us
himself that he could shoot farther and
with greater accuracy with his crossbow
than his keeper could with the fire tube.
To prove this he tells US the well
known story of certain chamois stand
ing at distance of 200 fathoms, which.
after being pronounced as too far off by
his henchman, who was armed with
one of the first sporting firearms mem
toned in print. comes tumbling down,
pierced at the first attempt, by the EN-
peror's bolt.
From other sources we learn Of strict
measures being adopted to prevent
poachers and wood loafers' using fire.
arms, and this at period when princes
still used the cumbrous crossbow and
spear. 1t was only in the last quarter
of the sixteenth century that firearms
had ousted other weapons for certain
forms of the chase, the deer battue be-
ing among the latter. -Gentleman :

An odd way of getting into business
was adopted by n Cincinnati agent.
His shrewdness drew the line pretty
closely between inadverteney and petty
larceny. He had secured the position
of collector for mercantile house and
I'm the line of his duties he made some
forty or fifty calls per day on delln
ouent customers. He made 1t a point
to borrow a lead pencil from each one
with which to do his figuring. These
he never returned unless asked to do
so. OF course, no suspicion attached
to him on so trivial matter, for for
getfuness In regard to lead pencils is
recognized as a human failing. Nearly
every one he secuted was long enough
to pass muster as new pencil and
after collecting 1000 In this way he
secured a contract for furnishing lead
pencils TO n country school. One of
the advantages of his bid was that he
offered to furnish pencils already
sharpened. From this start his prog
ress was rapid and basis was thus
furnished for commodlous stationery
store from which he derives a comfort
able income.

A TRUE STORY.
Strong Attachment of Two ChicaR,
sandwich Men.

Strong Attachment of Two ChicaR
Sandwich Men.
Those who hold the theory that the
poor cannot afford to Indulge IN feel
ings, and that to have enough to eat Is
for them 10 have all their longing salts
fed, should read the story OF two waits,
one OF whom lately died in a Chicago
hospital.
They belonged, says the Interior,
strictly to the ranks OF those who strug-
gle for the barest subsistence, earning
scanty living by acting as sandwich
men," or by cobbling little for the
poorest of the poor. They were in no
way related, but they had lived for
years In the same room, and had learn
ed to like each other and to be neces-
sary to each other. If their undivided
earnings amounted 10 dollar a week
they were IN comfort. a little more
meant affiuence.
There was one fear that pressed upon
the hearts of these men-they dreaded
a pauper burial. Lest either should
come to such disgrace they coyenanted
to protect each other from 1t, and TO
pay every week fifteen cents each TO a
burial society which guaranteed some
thing like ninety dollars on the death of
a deposition.
Two years ago the strength of one
of these men failed. lie could do no
work, and from that time the stronger
of the two supported both, and kept up
the payments of both policies.
The end came at last. The double
task fell from the shoulders of the sur
ylyor. He had yet to keep his promise
to his friend, however. He collected
the money for the policy, purchased a
decent easket, and honored the dead
man with a respectable funreal. Then
he mailed all that was left of the insur.
ance TO the blind brother of his friend,
paid two weeks premiums In advance
upon his own burial expenses, and OBJ
tanning admittance TO a city hospital
died within ten days-of broken heart

Nuts for Eating.

Nuts are much employed In high-class
cookery, but their value seems not to be

housewives. too many of whom let the
squirrels get them all. Very delicious

nut makes a cake more delicious. Nuts

nominal value.-Phlladelph Inquirer

WEALTH MADE HIM PROMINENT
The Late Ba ron Rothschild Was a Man
of Mediocre Mentality.

Baron Ferdinand James de Roths-
child. who died in London not long
since. was one of the most mediocre of
this influential family of Croesuses,
though he did gain some political prom
inenee and was n member of Parlia-
ment when he died. He was born In
Paris In 1899 and was educated In the
Austrian capital. Early In his young
manhood he removed TO England,
where one branch of this famous fam
lily has long resided. Baron Roths-
child conceived liking for politics and
was made member of Parliament at
a bye election in 1885. He sat for Ayles-
bury until the general election of the
same year and was returned. In 1886
he was again elected as Liberal
Unlonlst. He was reelected for the
same constituency In 1892 and 1895. In
1883 he was made high sheriff of Buck
inghamshlre and was deputy lieuten-
