Not wanting a Job.

When the late w. E. Gladstone was
chancellor of the excheQuer. one day
he was in the shipping department of
the government office getting some In
formation and figures for the coming
budget. While thus engaged Sunder-
land shipowner called to see Mr.. Lind
sey, the then member for Sunderland.
While waiting for Mr.. Lindsey to
come in the shipowner got his eye on
Mr.. Gladstone and was watching him
closely. After doing SO a little while he
thus addressed him:
Thou seemst good writer and clev-
er at figures. I'll give thee f1Oo a
year, and that's an offer thou'lt not get
every day."
Mr.. Gladstone thanked him and said
he would see Mr.. Lindsey.
Just then Mr.. Lindsey entered. Then
Mr.. Gladstone told Mr.. Lindsey of the
offer his friend had made him.
Mr.. Lindsey said it was very good
offer, but he did not know if Mr.. Glad
stone could be spared. Anyway he had
better introduce them. Turning to his
friend, the shipowner, he said: ALLOW
me to introduce you to W. q. Glad
stone, chancellor of the exchequer-Mr.
So-and-so, Sunderland" The amaze
ment of the shipowner cannot be de-
scribed. The Grand Old Man laughed
oderately.-London Answers.

The Cairo Theater.

Philadelphia, Nov. 1.-THE bursts OF
applause that greets the performances
at the Cairo theater, on the EXPOSE
ton Esplanade, evince the popularity
Of the entertainment. 1t is estimated
that 80 per cent of all visitors to the
exposition have passed within the pcr-
tails Of the pretty Oriental playhouse
All parts of the Orient, even the Sui
tan's harem, have contributed to this
contingent of beautiful maidens from
the far east. whose alluring dances
captivate all who see them. After the
performances they repair to the Turk
ish cafe and smoking parlor, where
Orientalism reigns supreme, and de
hcious, aromatic coffee may be sippeS
between puffs of the rich and dreamy
Turkish cigarette.

that of the human being in everything
except his feet, which are made more
for climbing than for walking. His
tricks are entertaining, and he never
becomes weary of playing and per-
forming. Since his capture, when he
was less than 10 months old, he has
always been dressed exactly like a
baby. He knows what each garment
is for and where it belongs, and is al
most able to dress himself
When introduced to a stranger he
puts out his hand, mods his head and
whines, as if to say: Pm glad to meet
you, sir" Ham is only years old
now, and an orang outang is not full
grown until he reaches the age of T.
If Hams health will only remain good
wonderful changes may be brought
about in that time which will enable
scientists to make experiments with
the Darwinian theory.
Ham will be on exhibition at the
Hagenback show in the Midway until
Dec. 2.

MAKERS OF THE EXPOSITION.
Some of the Men Who Projectedand Carried
to Success Philadelphia's Great Ma
tional Industrial Show.


Philadelphia, Nov. 1.-THE men who
make and manage a successful in
dustrial exposition of national i'm
portance are public benefactors. They
are usually and naturally men of large
wealth, liberal business views and in
terested in generous way in trade
and commercial advancement. The
makers of the National Export expo
sition exemplify in marked degree
these characteristics. They have made
the enterprise great trade success
and by adroit and skillful management
have brought 1t also to a successful
million and a half Of persons have
visited the exhibition indicates in part
what its managers were enabled to
accomplish. They brought together
exhibits in great variety, representing
an invested capital of more than a
half billion dollars and industrial
employees exceeding a million and q
half in number. The conception of the
idea of the National Export exposition
dates back to the summer of 1897,
when representatives of the Latin
American governments visited the
United States to make an examination
of the industries of this country. These
gentlemen, after having held con
gress, in which the subjects of inter-
est to them were discussed, were taken
on a tour of industrial centers of the
United States. At the city of Provi-
dence, r. l., they were entertained
and instructed in specially interest
ing manner A little Industrial fail
had been improvised in a large build
ing just completed for the use of an
extensive manufacturing concern. This
fair, or exhibition, although improvis-
ed, represented pretty fully the man
ufacturing industries of Rhode ISL
and, and presented to the foreign
visitors striking object lesson.
Among those who had accompanied
the Latin-American delegates on this
tour of inspection and one of those
most quickly interested in the idea

i Philadelphia, Nov. 14.-Much inter-
est is taken in Ham, Jr., a species Of
the orang outang, which was brought
to this country by Professor Frederick
ID'Osta, and added to the Hagenback
congress of wild animals on the Expo
Sition Esplanade, where he will re-
ceive visitors daily during the remain
der of the exposition. Ham, Jr., was
examined several days ago by num-
Der of eminent Philadelphia surgeons,
who were unanimous in the opinion
that he was as much like man as he
was like an orang outang. They think
that in time the man monkey will learn
to behave himself as decorously as
some human beings and to speak the
English language as we'll as some
others who have received the advan-
tages of superior education.

The English Society for the Prevention
of Consumption" presided over by the
Prince of Wales, was recently addressed
by Sir William Broadbent, who stated
that it was definitely known that every
case of consumption began with germ
communicated from some other case.
There is no such thing as inherited
consumption. There may be local
weakness which tends to consumption,
but has abolutely to be planted in that
weak spot before consumption can
ensue. This ought to comfort thou
sands of people who have "weak chests
or weak lungs" They are not fore
ordained victims of this dread disease.
All that is needing to bid absolute de-
fiance to this deadly scourge, is to be able
to strengthen the weak lungs, and build
up strong body. The answer to this
need is found in DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t so purifes the
blood supply, that disease is thrown off
and the weak organs are nourished into
perfect health, which defies germs of
every kind. People, given up by doctors,
emaciated, bleeding at the lungs, with
obstinate, lingering coughs, are being
cured every day by the use of Golden
Medical Discovery" 1t is strictly tenn
perance medicine containing no alcohol,
whisky or other intoxicant.

Helping a Tartar.

A singular custom prevails among
the Tartars or Kurds. If man gets into
difficulties. g.. loses his cattle or
other movable property-he pours a
little brown sugar into piece of COL
ored cloth, ties it up and carries one
such parcel to each Of his friends and
acquaintance. In return he is pre-
sented, according to circumstances,
with COW, or sheep, or sum Of mon
ey. He is thus at once set on his legs
again.
