Dropping q Letter.

An enterprising Sixth street restau-
rant proprietor hung out large black
board sign the other day, with the fol-
lowing announcement: you can't beat
our 15-cent dinners" This sign prov
ed to be a good drawing card until a
young man of humorous turn of mind
came along. The latter, seeing the
sign, stopped, and, after scrutinizing
it closely, smiled one of those smiles
which bode no one any good. He wait
ed until none Of the employees We're

chief, he erased the letter 'b" from the

complete, and it was not until a crowd
had collected that the proprietor of the
restaurant discovered why there was
a larger crowd outside than inside

CHINESE BOY AT HOME.
Long Hours in School aud Sports of
the Vacation.

I
Long Hours in School aud Sports of
the Vacation.
Among the representatives o. the ce-
lestial Kingdom in this city are Lee
! Way and his cousin, All Foon. They
are bright and intelligent and are inter-
! esting characters. OF their earlier life
in China they give very lucid accounts.
Lee Way has been in the United
States about twenty years, first locat-
ing in New York City. In. his native
| country he has a wife and son, and he
has made frequent visits to them since
lie first came to America. Lee received
instruction in English before he crossed
the Pacific, and he also attended school
in New York. Both he and his cousin
receive weekly instructions at the
hands of teachers of the Baptist Sun
day school, and Lee especially has be-
come proficient in his use of the Eng
ish language.
All Foon has been in America only
few years, and has resided in Ogdens-
burg about year. He is married, and
his wife was left behind in his native
land. Before coming to America All
FOon was in school until he was 16,
with English tutors, but his knowledge
of the language is meager. Until few
years ago there were no woman teach
ers in all China. Now there are many,
and students are received until past the
age of 30. There are many native
teachers, as we'll as the missionaries.
| who come from foreign lands. The
scholars sit on high stools at desks
and study aloud. AT 10 and IL years the
| Chinese scholars can read and write
| very well. Every lesson is learned by
rote. The teacher always retains pos
session of Furnishing stick, and occa-
sionally lazy or tardy scholars receive
few sound raps with it.
The scholars are at school early in the
morning, and it is not uncommon for
boys to study ten hours day. That
would seem a long time for American
boys to devote to study in a single day.
but, according to All Foon, the juvenile
Chinaman never grumbles at the long
hours, and he and his companions
climb upon their stools and sing out
their lessons all at the same time as
loudly as they can. Vacation is always
during the rice harvesting season. Then
the boys fly kites and enjoy many other
pastimes which are similar to those
seen in America, such as walking on
stills, playing hide and seek, blind
mans buff and leapfrog.
I'VE have great fun fighting beetles,
toO.' said All Foon. ''In China there
are no bad boys like here. All boys are
respectful to all older than themselves.
They do not think it fun to hurt other
peoples feelings. One thing l have
seen here is very old trick in China.
You see boys place a package on the
sidewalk, and when some one stOops to
pick it up it is gone. for there is string
tied to it. and little boy at the other
end of the string. ng.'-Ogdensburg Jour-

An Even Exchange.

A good Irish story will bear consider
able retelling. Such, evidently, is the
view of Cornhill Magazine, from which
the following example is taken:
Chief Baron O'Grady was once trying
a case in an assfZe town where the
courthouse abutted on the green. A fair
was in progress, and just outside the
court a number of asses were tethered.
AS counsel was addressing the court
one of these began to bray.
Instantly the chief baron stopped the
speaker. "Wait moment, Mr.. Bushe," ;"
he said. Il can't hear two at once"
The court roared, and the advocate
grew red. But presently, when it came
to summing up, the Judge was in full
swing when another ass struck in,
whether by the counsei's contrivance
or not, who shall say? Anyhow, up
jumped Mr.. Bushe, with his hand to his
ear, and said:
Would your lordship speak a little
louder? There's such an echo in the
court"

RECENT INVENTIONS.

By new opera glass attachment the
the spindle being rotated by rack bar,
which is pivoted on the frame and has
a serrated knob projecting over the top,
to be reciprocated by the finger and
open or close the glass.
Buttons are easily cleaned without
machine, which has a slotted base, in
which a slide is arranged to open and
receive the button, with brush sus-
pended above the opening to be re-
volved by crank and scrub the button.
Liquids will not spill over in filling
bottles if an improved funnel is used,
the tube being inserted in rubber
stopper to fit tightly in the neck of the
bottle, with a small tube inside to ex-
haust the air and an internal stopper
which cuts off the flow when the bottle
is full.
Housekeepers will appreciate new
griddle- -greasing device, which has a
hollow handle to contain the liquid,
with an opening leading into a fiat
pocket at one end, the face of the pock
ct having a felt pad to distribute the
grease and being covered by a metal
cap when not in use.
A Frenchman has designed a neat
disinfecting device for purifying rooms,
comprising cup to be suspended over
the top of lamp chimney or gas jet,
in which the liquid is placed for evap-
oration, with a horizontal fan above
the cup to be revolved by the heated
air and spread the disinfectant.
An Iowa man has patented a storm
front for buggies, having steel frame
extending upward at the rear of the
dashboard, provided with spring con-
trolled window, which can be raised
above the dasher, the remainder of the
frame being covered with water
proof curtain extending to the buggy

Cured His Habit.

A young theological student who
supplied the pulpit in Vermont viii
lage one summer, had a habit of EN-.
phasizing proHouns which his instruct
or in elocution had endeavored in vain
to correct. The involuntary smiles OF
his rural congregation one Sunday,
however, worked the change for which
his friends and professors had longei.
He was reading the thirteenth chapter
of First Kings, and on coming to the
27th verse. he said distinctly: "And he
spake to his sons, saying: Saddle me
the ass. And they saddled him" -

Kaan Sense of Smell.

Tommy had formed the habit of go.
ing to Miss Whaatcake's house several
times day, and, strangely enough,
most of these visits occurred just at
meal times. One morning he arrived
before Miss Wheatcake's breakfast was
served. He feared that he was too late
for the meal, but. being too polite to
inquire, merely looked about with anx-
ious stealth for some signs of prepara-
ton. Miss Wheatcake saw his pertur-
baton, but said nothing to relieve it.
Presently Tommy remarked: "Aln't
it funny, Miss Wheatcake, IN awfully
hungry?' Miss Wheatcake made no
comment and he wiggled about uneasi-
ly in his chair for few moments, then
with tlmidly ingratiating look he
said: "Seems to me smell eggs boil
ing. Do I?''

A Sepseless Lot,

Four Americans were discussing the
absurdities OF the French coinage sys.
tenn in the compartment of a railway
carriage in France not long ago. "It's
funny. the way these Flencl,men have
fixed things up" said one of the party.
Now, take the franc, for exapm1e.
They made it worth between 18 and 19
cents, when they might just as easily
have made it worth an even 20 cents
and saved lot of trouble. / never
saw anything SO impractical in my
life." eyes" remarked another, ''but
the English are just as bad. There
they went and made pound worth
$4.84. instead of putting it up to an
even five dollars. 1t seems as though
these foreigners haven't any real sense,
anyhow

Shortened His Sentence.

A man charged with bigamy was
once brought before Judge Gary, Of Illi'
nois. The accused had lived two years
cluded to plead, guilty on the under
standing with the States Attorney that
his sentence would divorce him from
No. 2. When. he stood before Judge
Gary the little man looked over his
desk and asked in a voice of kindness:
You fully understand what the plea
of guilty meansT.
Yes, your honor"
'And do you understand if you so
plead it will be my duty to send you to
the penitentiary? Do you understand
that?"
Yes, your honor. Anything to get
free'
The judge looked at the man for a
moment and then said in his inimitable
manner:
Il suppose there are some things be-
side which prison would be relief.
ANY relative or friends of the defendant
in court?'
A woman in black stood up on a
bench, and said in voice which sound
ed like rip of cambr4c:
Il am his second wife, judge"
Judge Gary replied Immediately, with
no change in his voice or face:
'Some things beside which prison
would be relief. You ought to be will
ing to take three years"
The prisoner hooded an assent.
Judge Gary looked over at the woman
in black. He seemed to read her in a
second. He turned to the man who
had pleaded guilty and said:
Il will give you one year. You seem
10 have bnd the other two before they
arrested you."-Green Bag.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

By local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by eonstitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed YOU have a rumbling sound or imper.
feet hearing, and when it is entirely closed
ton can be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out OF ten are caused by

condition OF the mucous surfaces.
