Money In SOiled Linen.

ut is astonishing how careless peo-
pie are about sending clothes to laun-
dry without first searching them for
money and jewelry." said the manager
of laundry the other day. "Yester-
day a woman sent a bundle of dresses
here, and In the pocket of one was
$3.50 In bills. We never search cloth
ing for valuables. The dresses were
put in the washing machine soap and
water put In, and after the machine
had been running half an hour 1t was
opened, and the man In charge was as
tonished to see paper money boating
around on the water. The bills had IN
some manner worked out Of the pocket
of the dress, and, strange to say, not
one of them was torn. We ran the
money through the drying machine
and then ironed each bill carefully.
After we got through you could not
have told that the money had been In
laundry washing machine for half an
hour We sent for the woman, and
when she came to the laundry she had
not yet missed her money.
Not long ago man sent some shirts
to our laundry from the bosom OF one
Of which he forgot to remove a dia-
mond stud worth $3.50. Our people did
not see the diamond. and we did not
find 1t until he called us up and made
known his loss. Then put my men to
searching, and we found the diamond
In the catch basin in the sewer."-New

Reading Matter For the Duke.

There was an amusing incident IN
connection with the late Duke of Edin-
burgh's Australian tour. He accepted
an Invitation to visit wealthy squat
ter, on whose estate excellent shooting
was to be had. The squatter was
self made man, entirely unlncumbered
with book learning and absolutely In
nocent of reading tastes. In making
preparation for the dukes visit 1t was
suddenly discovered that the furnish
ing of the library had been completely
overlooked. There was no time to be
lost, and so the squatter sat down and
dispatched the following telegram to
the leading Melbourne bookseller
Send one ton of books. Immediate
delivery"
The bookseller was staggered at the
receipt of such wholesale and uncon'
ventional order, but as the signature OF
the sender would be honored by any
Melbourne bank on a check for six fig
ures he kept his staff working on the
Job until the small hours Of the morn.

Novel Chinese Clock.

1t must be conceded that In some
qualities of primitive but practical re-
sourcefulness the Chinese are ahead OF
most civilized nations. All travellers
agree that If In a district where clocks
and watches are unknown you ask
Chinaman the time of day he will, II
well disposed, at once proceed to am
buscade and capture the household cat,
and after pushing up the lids and look
ing for a moment into It's eyes he Will
tell the time with astonishing accuracy.
The explanation is a simple physio'
logical one. The pupils of the cats
eyes constantly contract until midday.
when they become like a fine line, as
thin as a hair, drawn perpendicularly
across the eyes. After II they begin
again to dllate. 1t Is to be hoped that
IL the practice is ever introduced into
this country watches and clocks Will
continue to be made, as there will
probably be many who will not care to
run after a cat whenever they want to
know the hour or who may fear some
danger to their own eyes from too close
an examination OF hers.
