He Made a Sale.

A big down town department store
has q young man "slployed as rug
salesman who at tlslcs evinces genius
In the highest degree.
Into the store there recently came a
South Side society woman well known
for nervousness and a tendency to
founder about In her topics of CONVEX
satlon. She desired a rug of a certain
size. The young man got down two or
three to show her. In the middle Of
his explanation as to quality and price
she turned away and began to examine
goods on n neighboring counter. Then
she went back to the young nan and
wanted to look at some more rugs. He
started to spread n out, when she
wandered away again. When she re.
turned the third time, he had a stool
placed In an angle Of the counter and
suggested that perhaps she would be
seated while he got the rug.
When she had taken her seat, he
spread the rug so thaM 1t effectually
blocked the angle and prevented her
escape. He held up the edge Of the
rug farthest from her so she couldn't
walk v e It. and o Jxept her penned
up while he explained how fine a rug
It was. She made two or three at
tempts to get down. but with no sue
cess, and finally bought the rug to oh.
tain her release.-Chicago News. '

An Awful Ordeal,

Once in a year. and at n place In
the world, there is a crush that sur
passes anything else Of Its kind In the
world. 1t Is the great fair Of Bawa
Farid, which Is annually held In the
town Of PAX Pattan. In British India.
1t Is held in honor of the famous st.
Farid-ud-D Din, surnamed Shakar CAM,
or sugar store. from the fact that his
body had become SO pure by continual
fasting that whatever was put into his
mouth. ever earth and stones. was in
stantly changed into sugar.
The principal ceremony consists Of
passing through an opening made In a
wall adjoining the shrine, measuring s
feet by ~ feet. and called 1.-THE
Gates Of Paradise" ...
Whoever between noon and night IL
able to pass through this opening Ia Is.
sured OF paradise, and when there are
$4,000 striving to pass through at the
same time the crush Is something ter
rifle. Women faint. bones are broken,
and the heat is sitting.

very well on oatmeal. Therefore he
eschewed butchers meat. But ut the
