actually compelled to. They never
hired any help or give themselves or
their children any pleasures. They
had just worked and managed. Well,
now, if their children didn't make
that money fly l can't say it! My
land, it would of made Maria turn
over in her grave if she could Of seen
her boy VIII tearin' round in a $500
buggy with a $l00 horse to it! And
the girls come out in silks and satins!
l tell you, but they made up for lost
time and opportunities when they
got that money into their own hands.
Never having had any money before,
they didn't have any sense about how
to use it when they had a lot to do
as they pleased with. That's the way
it centrally is with children who are
managed as Maria Kent managed
hers. Thank goodness, my mother
never managed that way-heavens
bless her! She and my dear old fa-
ther spent all that they well could for
their happiness and for the happi
ness Of their children. None of us
ever wanted to run away from home,
and we were taught the value of
money by being given it to spend. If
we didn't spend it wisely we were
taught in a kind and lovin' way how
to make good use Of it.
"Oh, yes, Maria Kent was a good
manager, but l hope her kind won't
increase very fast. Yes, thank you,
l will have another piece Of pie; and
just half cup Of tea to wash it down.
There, that is a great plenty. Seems
to me that you do make the Aakiest

A NEW SANDWICH.
Might Have Made Its Inventor Rich If
Properly Launched.

There are ham sandwiches and sal
mon sandwiches and cheese sand
wiches and several other kinds Of
sandwiches downtown restaurant
advertises 80 varieties-but the lat
est is the ice cream sandwich. AS a
new fad the ice cream sandwich might
have made thousands of dollars for
its inventor had the novelty been
launched by a well-known caterer,
but strangely enough, says the New
York Mail and Express, the ice cream
sandwich made its advent in an hum
BILE Bowery push cart, and is sold for
penny.
The idea is worthy of better field,
for the ice cream sandwich is not only
distinct novelty, but it has merits
of its own. 1t will be appreciated by
the child who on having ice cream for
the first time wanted to have it
warmed. While losing nothing Of its
flavor, the thin waters which 90 to
make up the sandwich help to modify
the GOODNESS Of the ice cream, so that
it can be eaten more readily. The ice
cream sandwich, as made on the
Bowery, is constructed in this wise:
A thin milk biscuit is placed in a tin
mold just large enough to receive it.
Then the mold is filled with ice cream
from a freezer, and another wafer is
placed on top. There is an arrange
ment for forcing the sandwich out Of
the mold when complete, and the
whole process takes only a few sec
onds The ice cream sandwich man
is the envy of all the other push cart
restaurateurs on the Bowery, as he
has all the patrons he can attend to,
and the cart is always sorrounded by
curious customers.

HA WAIIAN FISH.
Several New Species Found-A Good
Field for Scientific Study.


Field for Scientific Study.
In all AZ species Of labroids and
scaroids were obtained. The large
percentage Of these that appear to be
new would indicate that these islands
and their neighbors lying west and
south form a most interesting field
for the study Of these forms. While
this fauna has already received the
attention Of Blocker, Gunther (on
CARROTS collections and drawings),
Steindachner and other ichthyolo-
gists, our knowledge Of it is only in its
beginning,
The fishes Of these groups were
mainly obtained from the market in
Honolulu, which is supplied by the
native fishermen. The species are
all valued highly by the native Ha-
waiians as foods, the scaroids especial
ly so. Some small specimens Of the
latter bring large prices. They are
eaten raw by the natives, as are most
of the other fishes, cooking being re-
garded as especially inimical to the
food qualities Of scaroid The Hon
olulu fish market is the richest source
Of the collectors material. Fisher
men who know the habits and haunts
of these fishes, and who have great
skill in catching them, are urged to
bring them here by the high price and
ready sale of these forms.-United
States Fish Commission Bulletin.

The coMRAoE.


Friend, as thou ploddest up and down,
A pilgrim DER earths varied ways,
BY mead, or garth, or steepled town,
Or hilltops hung with purple haze;
thou wouldst view the prospect wide
With rainbow vision, there is one
Whom thou shouldst summon to thy side
For all thy wanderings meath the sun.
He, If the path seem steep or long,
WIN ever lift the word of cheer,
Or some aluring troll of song
For soothing solace in thine ear.
If Ills assail, a grlsly band
Their cloudy threat will he dispel
With promise of some potent hand
The grim conspiracy to quell
Still will he bear the buoyant part
When Lies last foes about thee rise:
And If thou once tak'st Hope to heart
Thou mayst meet Death with fearless
eyesl

interesting figure in this international
tragedy was Sir Robert Hart. who for
more than twenty five years has BEEN as
far as a European might, the statesman
guiding the affairs of the Chinese Empire.
Those familiar in any degree with East

long rule of silence and give to the world
his story of the evcnts which led to the
closing of the gates of the British l.ega-
ton. and his views as to the policies
which should prevail in the settlement OF
the difficult questions which had arisen.

FOreigners' Love of Jewels.

1t is curious to recall that the late re-
gretted King Humbert had the craze for
jewels which is usually supposed to be the
especial characteristic of women folk. and,
seeing that the usages of modern society
forbid mere man to bedeck himself unduy
beyond the realms of eastern barbaric mag
nifcence. the king let his tastes have sway
in filling Queen Margherita's jewel cases,
and it is said the poor. widowed queen pos
sesses the most representative show of jew
els that any European sovereign can show.
The table d'hote at fashionable French
watering place Instances, by the way. how
comparatively moderate Americans are in
this gentle art of adornment. Every woman
and girl of continental or transatlantic ma
tionality seems to glitter at all points with
gems. They all, without exception, wear
diamond pearl earrings-9ute large
now, some are-their hands are covered
with rings and three or four bangles on each
wrist are the merest ordinary allowance,
while chains hung with charms. brooches
in half dozens and jeweled chatelaines or
chain purses jangle at every step of these
extensively equipped persons. Somebody's
jewel case was looted at a foreign hotel
short time ago, by the way. and the thief
made off with $1,000 francs worth of pre-
ciOuS stones.
