A Statue In Prison.

A certain noted artist long ago, hav-
ing made a faithful bust of sitter,
found his work declined on account of
its ugliness, the subject refusing to be-
lieve it was a good likeness.
Every well. - said the artist. ''You
deny the likeness and refuse to take the
bust, and l accept the excuse. a"
He accordingly set up the bust in his
studio, surrounded by a small. card pa
per prison. gloomily painted over, on
which was inscribed. :FOr Debt. " The
portrait was so unmistakable that
everybody in town recognized it and
focked to the artists studio to enjoy
his ingenious revenge. Soon the subject
came, passionately complaining of the
ridicule to which he had been subjected.
''You, sir p said the sculptor. WHO
knows this ugly bust to be yours? There
is no name upon it, and you have ut
terly denied its resemblance 1t is my
work, and have right to do as will
with it. -
''Oh, but 1 will pay you the price
and take it awayl"
''But it has become so valuable TO me
by attracting the public that 1 cannot
part with it for less than twice my
original charge"
''Well. 1 will take it at that price. -
And so the sculptor's debtor got himself
out of prison. New York Times,

The Best Way to Sample whisky


One of the best judges of whisky il
Chicago is a man who never drinks it.
He is Captain Joseph E. G. Ryan. for
merly of the Seventh.
Captain Ryan is a whisky expert.
He can tell almost to day the age OF
any sample submitted to him. Give
him a few drops of whisky. and he
can tell you the brand, the distiller,
where it was made. when, and detect
adulteration if there is any. Blend two
or three kinds of whisky, and he can
tell the blend.
And he never tastes it, being strictly
temperate in all his habits.
1t is all told by the smell. Captain
Ryan's nose is very sensitive organ
and he has trained it with the utmost
care.
Smelling is by far the most salts
factory method of testing" he says
''If man has great deal to sample
and tastes each kind, he soon gets so
that he cannot distinguish one from the
other. The sense of taste becomes blunt
ed, and he loses all the fine distinctions.
ION the other hand, the more a man
uses his nose the more acute the sense
of smell becomes land he is able to de-
tect the slightest difference between
samples. '-Chicago Journal.
