lows Shady Actions.

A young man whose work keeps him
usually reaches home with a sharp appetite
His mother, an indulgent woman, too, puts
q little lunch where he can get it, but this
frequently fails to satisfy him. His wise
parent knows this and she saves the larder
from a Wholesale onslaught by locking
things up, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer.
Now, if there 10 one thing in particular
that this youth dotes upon It is Jelly. But
Jelly is an article of food that takes time
and skill in its preparation, and if the lady
left her Jelly jars at his disposal-well, there
would be none to dispose'of after a few
mornings. So the jelly is locked up the
tightest of all.
The other morning the youth let himself
into the house just as the gray streaks of
dawn were ~cross-barring the eastern sky.
There was milk and bread awaiting him,
but his soul crayed for jelly. He determined
tohunt for some. Taking a slice of bread and
Q knife he stole down cellar and searched the
fruit shelves. What happiness! He dimly
made out the outlines of a Jelly Jar. Was
there any jelly in it? He dipped in his knife
and felt the soft and quivering mass. What
a joke on this usually careful mother. She
had actually forgotten to turn the key on
this treasure.
He drew out a generous quantity and
carefully spread it OF the bread. He had to
do it largely by guesswork, because the eel
lar was almost totally dark. When the
spreading was done he smacked his lips
tightly and took a generous bite.
No, it wasn't Jelly. 1t was soft soap.

and to several attacks of sickness
from which he had suffered for the
past year and a half.

to treat for three free ports in France, in
return for which England was to have three
in Japan: The negotiations proved short
and amiable, says London King.

The minister Of foreign affairs selected
Yokohama, Yeddo and Hang-Yang.
The embassy made no objection; they
simply smiled and went on their way.
Some time afterward Japan sent word
that the three ports mentioned were agreed
to, and in return Japan desired Havre, Mar
settles and Southampton.
This last named gave the French officials
fits: They never laughed SO much before,
and certainly never since. Southampton a
French port! No, it was too good. Gently,
but Enthusiastically, they explained the sit
uation.
