THE GRAND BRACE.
Pathetic Plea of the BibulOus Head
of the House Next
Morning.

One of the Bohemian citizens of the town
went home the other night after having
donned pair of skates that would have slid
him over an Arizona desert with the mer-
curry bubbling out of the top OF the thermom-
eter. He had no recollection of how he got
home, and even the next morning he was
not certain whether he was on storm
tossed Atlantic liner or making leap from
a balloon minus parachute. He went
down to the breakfast table with enough wet
towels wrapped around his head to make
a turban for the mahdi. His wife met him
with reproaches in her eyes, but she did not
scold him. She wanted to inform him of his
conduct the night before, however.
MY DEAR" she said, did you know that
you came very near killing us all when you
went to bed last night?"
Nope" said her husband, thickly, as he
felt his hot forehead.
well, you did You knocked over the
baby's cradle. Then you blew out the gas
and we were nearly asphyxiated. What do
you think of that?"
Her husband is usually resourceful man,
but the fumes of many cocktails taken the
night before somewhat clouded his intellect.
He made grand brace and tried to look pa
thetic.

burst through his foggy brain, wasn't I

A NOISY BOX.
The Strange Eject Produced Upon
Guinea Natives by n Boxed
Piano.

Like children, savages in all parts OF
the world are possessed of eternal GU
riosity. Mr.. ii. Cayley-Webster, we'll
known English traveller, gives an anus
ing instance of this trait among the ma
tives of New Guinea.
One day a piano arrived for his ex-
cellency the governor, and some natives
were told to carry the strengthening
case from the beach to the house. Aft
er going few yards one stumbled,
causing one end of the crate to strike
the ground and ever on the alert for
strange noises, their ears were imme-
diately pressed against it, and they
listened until the ting" of the wires
had died away.
Again, after yard or two, similar
mishap occurred. Again many ears
were listening to the sound so foreign
to them, until a native more knowing
than the rest, with heave raised the
whole case few inches from the
ground and let it go.
The noise which issued from the in
side had by this time worked them up
to such frenzy that they one and all
seized upon the case, rolled it over and
over, and danced with joy at the
strange sounds which came forth. And
it was not until this odd performance
had been repeated many times that the
eye of an official was attracted by the
shouts and yells of the natives; not,
however. before much damage had been
done and many strings broken.
The natives who speak English have
now come to call the piano box belong
cry" and generally add:
Whitley man, he fight, him belons
hand. Box, he cry out too much."-

Sweet Watermelon Pickles.

Take off the green rind and cut off
the pink portion from the inside of
watermelon. Weigh, and to each seven
pounds allow four pounds of sugar, a
pint of vinegar, two teaspoonfuls of
allspice, the same of cinnamon, half
the quantity of cloves, half teaspoon
full of ground mace and teaspoonful
of ginger. Mix all the spices together;
separate them into four parts, and tie
each in piece of cheesecloth. Put
the watermelon over the fire in cold
water, bring to boiling point and cook
until it is transparent. Drain it. Put
the sugar and vinegar with all the
spices in Lined kettle. When
boiling add the watermelon, little at
a time; cook until it is dark-not more
than five or ten minutes; then put away
in a stone jar. Next morning drain off
all the juice, heat to boiling point and
pour it over the watermelon rind. Do
this for nine consecutive mornings, the
last morning heating the watermelon
rind again in the juice and boiling The
Juice down until it will just cover the
rind.-Ladies' Home Journal.

MILLIONS OF DICE.
They Are Made of Various Ma
teriaIs and Sold In Large
Numbers.

The bone dice used in the United
States are all imported from France.
though it may be that the bone of which
they are made came originally from
this country. They are made in a man
ufacturing district not far from Paris
in which are produced various articles
of bone, and also things partly of bone.
as, for Instance, tooth brushes. Bone
dice are made in IL sizes, from to 10
inclusive, and in each of these sizes
they are made both square and round
cornered, as are all other kinds of dice.
In all kinds of dice there are sold of
the square-cornered variety ten times,
perhaps 20 times, as many as OF those
made with rounded corners. Round
cornered dice are often used in playing
ckgammon; they wear a board less
than square-cornered dice would and
roll easier. There are made some black
bone dice with white spots, but the sale
of these is comparatively very limited.
The great majority of the very large
number of bone dice sold are in the form
of the familiar white cubes with black
spots.
Celluloid dice, which are made in this
country, are of both Opaque and trans
parent material. The transparent dice
are made in saffron color, in magenta
and in green; the ouaque in imitation
of ivory. The imitation ivory dice are
finished III various ways as to the color
of the spots, some being made with
black spots and some with spots of
blue and some with red spots. The
spots on the various transparent dice
are made white. These various kinds
of celluloid dice are made in seven
sizes.
There are made in celluloid two styles
of poker dice, one octahedron-shaped
and containing on its eight faces rep
reservations of the seven, eight, nine,
ten, jack, queen, king and ace of or
binary playing cards; the other poker
dice is cube-shaped, containing on its
faces, instead of the spot, numbering
from one to six, as seen on common dice,
representations of the ordinary play
ing cards from the nine-spot to the ace
inclusive.
Dice are made in various sizes of
vegetable ivory, of ivory, and of pearl;
the most costly dice are those of pearl,
set of five of medium size would cost
at retail about $3.50 Some of the bone
dice are very cheap, dice of small size
selling at retail for a cent apiece, or ten
cents a dozen.
A considerable number of dice of
one kind and another are sold for use
in the household. All cabinets made
to hold cards and counters and so on
have compartment for dice, which
are part of the equipment, and many
dice for such use are sold separately.
Take it altogether, the consumption
of dice in this country amounts to mil
lions annually.-N. Y. Sun.

Joke ON A SPANISH SKIPPER
He Was shown the American FaSh-
ion of Loading Vessel
with Grain.

about four years ago." said the
superintendent of one of Buffalo's grain
elevators, while | was in charge of an
elevator in Baltimore, small brig ran
up to the elevator to take on load of
wheat. The captains name was Dom
cello. He was a Spaniard and for ten
or twelve years had traded around in
eastern ports. He had never seen a
grain elevator and his idea Of loading
grain into Il vessel was that it was SHOW
eled in by hand, as it was years ago.
He found me and in his gruff way said:
II want to put in $4,000 bushels OF
wheat, and / don't want to lay around
here a week or two. See if you can't
get me out of here in two days anyhow
II smiled, said that / would try, and
gave orders a minute later to get the
brig up in position, where we could as
sail her in good shape. The captain
went to his berth to sleep, for it was
nearly midnight then. We snugged the
little craft up against the wharf,
opened her matches and inserted three
full-sized spouts leading from we'll
filled bins in the top of the elevator.
All the employees understood what the
joke was to be and they decided to break
a record. Everything was ready for the
loading a half hour after Capt. Dom
cello went to his berth, but we had con-
Guided to let him get fast asleep before
going on with the joke.
ut was an hour and half after the
captain had disappeared that the power
was turned on and a second later thou
sands of bushels of grain went rushing
from the bins into the hold of the little
craft. The boat listed heavily for a
moment and threatened to overturn,
bit the grain slid over to the center and
righted the ship. Down rushed the
grain through the three spouts. You
could hear the roar for a thousand feet.
Seven minutes after the power was
turned on the power was turned off.
The $4,000 bushels had been paid out
and Capt. Doncelo's boat was setting
pretty low in the water. About this
time the captain appeared on deck in
his night shirt.
10 the pumps! ne shouted IN Span
ish in his loudest tones.
THE crew was on deck in a minute
and Capt Doncelo fitted about like a
paper man in windstorm. Spying me
on the wharf laughing, he accosted me.
What is the matter that my boat
sinks at her dock?' he asked.
She's not sinking, l guess. You
said you wanted to get out of here in
less than week and we loaded your
boat for you in a hurry
1.-The captain looked at me queerly,
stepped over to the hatchway and
looked at the heap of golden grain in
the hold. He was amazed, to say the
least. He remained in port long enough
to have the mystery explained, and q
good wind prevailing, he set out. He
had lain just two hours at the Dock
