The chaps who Join the montreal ting
club OF this city usually have thin lips
with natural congresses Of 40 horse
power. The treating habit has many
ramiflcations, and no ending. The
man who stoutly refuses to treat every
acquaintance who happens to enter a
cafe when he Is there against the rail
is more Of a hero than the regiments
at Santiago. 1t strikes me that he is
also n man Of brains. It IL a genuine
pleasure at times to invite an old
friend to have lone with me-" but
why does the old friend always insist
on returning the compliment then and
there, and why do you say,"Can't you
20 another Andawhy should he say,
after going another, well Just one
more and that's the last7' And then
you say, 1--WE might as well have
night-cap. This is positively and alb
solutely the last.'- And he adds to
keep the ball rolling, Lets have a CT
gar" And then a mutual acquaint-
ance drops In. Gentlemen, have just
'one with me- I've got to catch
train" And you two chime In stimuli
taneously, "Oh, no; have Just or
dered. Have this with me-" And he
rebels family, then buys cigars for the
crowd as q return for the drink to
which you have treated him. And
why should this thing go on until bus
insss and duty to family are forgot
ten? The members of tho non-treaA
ing club say they have the best OF the
argument and doubtless there are
many who VIII agree Win them.

benefit was but temporary at best. I
believe I should have contracted the

1T Is wonderful what a number and
variety of tool handles are made In
the United States every year." remark
ed wholesale dealer in such articles
In New York to a writer for the Star
recently. These handles come in all
sizes and shapes, from the smallest
handle made to fit tiny tack ham,
mer to those intended for the heaviest
bO-pound sledge tool. OF ak, Ratchet,
and adze handles there are half a
dozen different shapes and sizes, and
for chisels and gouges there are as
many more. Such handles, as well as
others made for spades, shovels and
pickaxes, are manufactured most by
Ave concerns having large facilities In
Kentucky and Tennessee, where mil
hons Of dollars worth Of the goods are
turned out annually. l
The material used for hammer, ak,
and shovel handles Is hickory and oak.
Trees used for making the handles are
sawed down close to the ground. The
timber is then cut into suitable lengths
and allowed to season. When seasoned
the logs are split into pieces of the re-
Quisite size for forming handles. These
pieces are called bolts. The'bolts are
sawed approximately to the shape Of
the handle to be finally made, and in
this shape they are turned to the de-
sired shape In a lathe and when pol
ished the work Of forming a handle 10
completed for the market. Besides
their neatness of finish, American tool
handles possess a lightness, toughness
and elasticity superior to any handle
made in the world, and for this reason
we export large quantities to the old
country, where the workmen appre-
ciate their good qualities"

CHAFFEE'S SCARED RECRUIT
An Appeal to His Common Sense Saved
the Young Man.

1t was at the canteen that the fol-
lowing story was told New York Sun
reporter by regular stretched luxuri-
ously on the grass In the midst Of
foam-bedecked schooners.

found out what he was at Ell Caney.
My company was at work digging
trenches, and while we were finishing
up one the Spaniards began to fire,
and the bullets sang their little tunes
pretty nigh to our heads. Well, there
was Kid in the company that could
mt have been over Is. Never ought
to have let him enlist at all. He was
always complaining and kicking, and
at the first fire down he went fiat on
his face and lay there. One Of the
men kicked him, but he didn't stir.
Then along came Chaffee, cool and
easy, and sees the kid.
Hello, therev' SAYS ChafYee.
What's the matter, you fellow down
there? Get up and fight with your. COM
pany.'
No, can't wines the kid.
"'Can'tT says Chaffee, jumping
down into the trench and hauling the
boy up. What's the matter with you
that you can't? Are you hurtY
No, SIR says he. I'm scairt I'm
afraid of getting hit
Wei, you're a fine soldier says
l.
boyish face of the kid and his face
kind Of softened. I suppose you can't
help It, he said. 1T amt so much
your fault. I'd like to get hold of the
fellow that took you into the army
Il suppose any other General would
have sent the kid to the rear In dis
grace and that would have been the
end Of it; but Chaffee stood there with
the bullets ki-yiying around him be-
sides the boy, who had crouched down
again, and thought, with his chin In
his hand. By and by he put his hand
on the boys shoulder.
"There isn't as much danger as you
think for he said. Now, you get I'D
and take your gun and fight and I'll
stand here by you'
''The boy got up, shaking like leaf
and fired his first shot pretty near
straight into the air.
"That's pretty high says the Gen
eral. Keep cool and try again
"Well, sir, in three minutes that
scairt kid was fighting like a veteran
and cool as a cucumber, and when he
saw 1t the General started on.
"You're all right now, my boy he
said. You'll make good soldier
"'God bless you, SIR said the
youngster. You saved me from worse
than DEATH and he was pretty close
to crying when he said It.
"After awhile the order came to re-
tire from the trench, and we just had
to collar that kid and haul him away
by the neck to get, him to retreat with
his company. And, at that he'd got
a bullet through the fleshy part Of his
shoulder an hour before. In the rest
Of the fights there wasn't q better SOL
der In the company, and not only that
but we never heard a grumble or q
kick from him from that day.
