Mr. Lewis stated that he had learned

Dangerous british Oysters.

Americans who have eaten oysters in
England wonder at the fondness of the
British for the leathery native that
tastes like copper cent, but which they
prefer to the luscious bivalve that we
eat in America. The average English.
man does not care for Blue Points or
Saddle Rocks, and prefers to pay a
larger price for his coppery morsels. of
shell fish. His clinging to his idols is
responsible for several cases of typhoid
fever. Nor is it strange that typhoid
should thus be spread. The medical
officer of Marylebone says that most of
the oysters come from waters tainted
with sewage, and they retain in their
soft tissues fair quantity of the wa
ter from which they have been taken
He advises people never to eat British
oysters raw--advice which few Ameri-
cans will disregard more than once

Luck IN The GRAVE.

Z He said that he was tired Of life! Bad luck
seemed always. ca mping
Upon his trail to handicap all he might
undertake.
For many long and weary months he'd
worn himself out tramping
The rugged Colorado hills, and never
made stake
No hill or gulch for miles around that he
had not prospected.
s. But not color nor streak had met his
searching eye,
And now, most awful sick at heart and
thoroughly detected,
He sought wild secluded place to lay
him down and die!
He started in to dig grave in which to
do his sleeping
TIA Gabriel should wake him up upon
the final day,
Emotions Of the widest sort throughout
his bosom sweeping
To think that he must quit the earth in
such beastly way
"A dose Of poison he'd prepared, pint Of
cactus whisky,
Such as is kept for Indian trade down
at the agency.
And hoped that when he faced the deal
he'd feel SO wildly risky
That death would seem picnic: but q
mortuary spree!
But 5est laid plans of mice and men gang
aft agley, and soon he
Was whooping in Joyous way and dane
In his grave
And acting most decidedly, emphatically
looney-
He'd struck lead Of sylvanite DER which
god would rave!
He sold it to a tenderfoot for twenty thou
sand dollars,
And life for him now carries lots of sugar
in the cup,
And at the faintest thought Of death with
fear he almost hollers,
And every time he catches cold he hunts
doctor up.

DINNER BILL SOUVENIRS.
Ocean Steamship Companies Make
Bills of Fare Suitable for Mailing,
Which Proves Taking.

"In crossing over to Liverpool a
couple of months ago. said guest at
one of the hotels the other evening, II
were printed on cards especially de-
signed for mailing. On the back were
several ruled lines for the address, a
place to affix a penny stamp and the
usual inscription, stating that they
could be mailed under the present laws
of the International Postal union. 1t
struck me as being particularly good
idea, and one that could be advanta-
geously adopted at hotels and restau-
rants almost anywhere.
"a traveller, for instance, in passing
through New Orleans, would be glad to
send some such souvenir to his friends
at home, especially when it involved no
trouble beyond writing an address and
FASTING on a stamp. 1 was surprised
during a brief stay. in Europe to see
how generally the postcard scheme
was being used for advertising pur-
poses. Almost every business house of
any consequence had cards containing

exterior and sometimes of odd hooks
and corners inside, most of them hand
somely done. They had space in the
corner for the stamp, and were certain
" Inexpensive when printed in large
quantities.
Such souvenirs are wrapped up with
every package, and countless thousands
of them must find their way into the
mails. In Berlin several of the larger
shops have rooms fitted up especially
for addressing and posting these cards.
They are in charge of attendants. who
have supply of different varieties on
hand, which they furnish gratuitously
to anybody who asks. They also sell
stamps and receive the cards for mail
