Brushing n Derby Hat.

Some men will buy two or three
black derby hats season. and these
will always look rusty and old. Other
men will buy not more than one a
year, and that will never lose its deep
and brilliant gloss.
''I'll tell you why it is" said one Of
the best dressers in town the other
day. 'It is because one man brushes
his hat with stiff bristled whisk, and
the other rubs his softly with piece
of wooden cloth. The felt of hat is
such a delicate stuff that stiff whisk
applied to it has pretty much the effect
that currycomb or rake would have
on suit of clothes. 1t wears the nap
off, exposing the bare gray foundation
in short order.
"a piece of wooden cloth, rubbed
over hat with circular motion that
conforms to the grain. doesn't rub off
the nap at all, but keeps it lustrous
and firm and of good color. buy one
$3.50 hat a year and rub it each
morning with bit Of flannel. guar
antee that it outlasts three S. hats that
are raked and scraped with whisks ev-
cry day."-Philadelph Record.

Went a Little Too Far.

A commercial travelling man landed
at Edinburgh, Scotland, one Saturday
night, too late to get outof town for Sun
day. The next day he found that there
was actually no form Of amusement in
the whole city to assist him in Willing
away the day. He went to the pro-
prietor of the hotel to see if he could
suggest way of passing the remain
der of the day.
The landlord took pity on the stran-
ger and took him to one of the rooms
in the house in which number of
Scotchmen were playing game called
map" which is a sort Of modification
of "seyen up" They were playing for
shilling point, so that the game was
pretty stiff one. The stranger got in
the game and played very cautiously,
for he was quite sure that the players,
or at least some of them, were cheat
ing. One solemn faced Scot, he was
especially sure, he caught cheating a
number of times. He began whisling
part of some vagrant tune. The Scot
who had been cheating arose from the
table and threw down the cards.
"What is the matter?" the other play
ers asked.
I'm gangin awa'," the Scot answer
ed, glaring at the stranger. 'I'll play
cards WI no mon that whistles on the
Sabbath"

Making Caricatures.

The way in which some artists can
distort features without making them
unrecognizable is certainly very re-
markable. Thomas Mast possessed
this faculty to an extraordinary degree
and he had very peculiar way Of
adding new faces to his mental pho
tograph gallery. When fresh SUBJ
ject would arise in politics., for in
stance, he would invent some pretext
to call upon him at his Office or house
and hold him in conversation as long
as possible, studying his features.
When he took his departure he would
purposely leave his cane. Once outside
Mast would make hasty pencil sketch
on card and would usually find that
his memory was deficient as to some
detail. He would then return, ostensi-
bly, for the cane, and another look at
the victim would enable him to per-
feet his sketch. After that he had the
man forever.
When Joe Keppler was alive he used
to make frequent trips to Washington
for the purpose of seeing statesmen
whom he wanted to draw. He was
very clever at catching likenesses and
scarcely ever referred to a photograph.

A Famou. Duel.

A duel was fought in Texas by Alex
ander Shott and John S. Mott. Mott
was shot and Shot was not. In this
case it is better to be Shot than Mott.
There was rumor that Mott was not
shot, but Shot avows that he was not,
which proves either that the shot Shot
shot at Mott was not shot or that Mott
was shot Notwithstanding.
l may be made to appear on trial
that the shot Shot shot shot Mott or, as
accidents with firearms are frequent, 1t
may be possible that the shot Shot
shot shot Shott himself, when the
whole affair would resolve itself into
its original element, and Shot would
be shot and Mott would be not.
We think, however. that the shot
Shot shot shot, not Shott, but Mott.
Anyway, it is hard to tell who was
shot.

A Wonderful Bird.

was opened and in another moment
she covered the little messenger with

from the cottage 30 long months, but it
had not forgotten the way home. 1t

that all was going well with him and

An Extraordinary I.land.

In the bay of Plenty. New Zealand,
is one Of the most extraordinary is
lands in the world. 1t is called White
island and consists mainly of sulphur
mixed with gypsum and few other
minerals. Over the island, which is
about three miles in circumference and
which rises between 800 and 900. feet
above the sea. floats continually an
immense cloud of vapor attaining an
elevation of 10000 feet. In the center
is boiling lake Of acid charged water
covering so acres and surrounded with
blowholes from which steam and sui
phurous fumes are emitted with great
force and noise. With care boat can
be navigated on the lake. The sulphur
from White island is very pure, but
little effort has yet been made to pro-
cure it systematically.

Two True Stories.

The Piscatorial Prevaricators' asso-
citation was in session.
II was fishing for cod off the Banks
one day some years ago." said one,
when dropped my watch overheard.
The next year l went fishing at the
same place. l caught whopping big
fellow and found my watch inside of
him. 1t was running steadily, the ac-
ton of the fsh's liver having kept it
wound up. But it was five hours fast.
The only way that l can account for it
is that the fish crossed the Atlantic,
staid on the other side long enough
to get the time over there, and that l.
caught him too soon after he got back
to allow the watch to regulate itself"
81 was fishing for trout in Pennsy!-
vania last fall" said another member,
Sin company with my nephew, who is
an inveterate cigarette smoker. We
landed q ten FOUNDER and allowed him
to founder around in the bottom of the
boat While we cast again, because they
were biting freely. My nephew had
just thrown lighted cigarette in the
boat, and in some way this trout got
it, put it in his gills and smoked it.
The cigarette seemed to have sooth-
ing effect OF him. l brought the trout
home. taught him to smoke pipe, and
when we killed him Christmas served
up to my guests something that be-
lieve has never been served up before

HIS Life For n Hand.

In a little town or village in Glouces.
tershire there is a church which
contains the mortal remains of one of
the old Crusaders. In moldering eff
fgy he is depicted on the tomb, while
by his side in cold eloquence is imaged
the form of his wife. 1t will be noticed
by even the casual observer that the
female image is bereft of one Of the
hands, and the story runs that the
Crusader, while fighting in tie east,
was made prisoner of war and
brought before Saladin, who, before
executing judgment upon him, asked
him If there was any reason why he
should not be put to death. To this
the knight replied that he was but
young, and would leave newly welded
wife, who would bitterly mourn his
loss.
''The love Of woman is as feeting
BREATH" retorted the sultan. your
wife will forget that you have ever
lived; she will love again and marry
another" To this the sad knight
could only reply that on her fidelity
he could rest his soul. well, them"
replied saladin, II will promise on my
oath as soldier that if this mans
wife will cut off one of her hands and
send it to me will set him free to
60 to her." By tedious and slow jour
neyings the message cane, and she, in
all piteousness for him who was her
lover and her lord caused her hand to
be cut off and sent it to the sultan,
who kept his word and set the Cru
sader free.-Notes and Queries.

Liaufd Glue.

To produce liquid glue which will
keep for years break pieces Of glue and
place in bottle with some whisky,
cork tightly and set aside for few
days. This should be ready for use
without the application of heat, except
in very cold weather, when the bottle
should be placed in hot water for few

Mexican Theater Etiquette.

In a Mexican theater women always
go bareheaded and the men wear their
hats all the time the curtain is closed.
During the performance they remove
them.
Frequently men rise in their seats
and sweep the tiers Of boxes with
large glasses. 1t is considered some
thing of an honor to have the glasses
Of a swell below leveled at your box.
Smoking is permitted in all theaters.

Eject Of Fear on wound..

The fear or poison in a lacerated
wound under certain circumstances is
in itself quite sufficient to give a
wounded man tetahus, or lockjaw,
than which no more horrible complica-
ton exists. Thus for long time it
was thought that the natives Of the
Solomon and other neighboring is
lands lately added to the empire used
poisoned arrows and many white men
shot by them died In tetanic convul-
sions, including one very horrible case
of commander in the navy who had
made special study of tetanus.
At length the French governor Of
New Caledonia, noticing that the symp-
toms exhibited were not consistent
with the use of any known poison, APP
pointed medical commission to in
quire into the affair, when it was dis
covered that the arrows of the natives
were not poisoned at all, although con-
structed in such way that a small
piece of the bone point almost always
remained in the wound. The irritation
produced by this prevented the wound
from healing quickly, and the mental
disturbance produced by fear and per
haps change of climate did the rest.
1t was discovered at the same time
that the natives Of other islands who
firmly believed in the poison theory
seldom suffered much inconvenience
from the arrow wounds, because they
believed that the spells given them by
their own sorcerers prevented the poi.
