THE TIP TALKS;
A 'FYawp" From the Boss of Our
Land.

A "Yavp" From the Boss of Our
Land.
I am the Tip,
The symbol of servility,
Come to this land
Where men were men
And masters were unthought,
From lands where masters
Tossed their coin,
AS crumbs to dogs,
And vassals, cringing to the dust.
Caught up the largest of their lords
And took the pfttance
AS a. sign of masters kindness
To his man.
To such q land
From lands as these l came
With hand outstretched
To catch the pennies that might fall;
And now where am 1 at?
The tip Is Boss
Of this broad land
Whose primal instrument
Made every man alike;
I am the Tip.
Go where you will,
I meet you everywhere;
Ask what you will,
And I come forth
To make your aSk1ngs or avail.
Before I came
Men in the lowlier walks.
Were men not less,
And service rendered in the held
OF their domain,
For which they had their fair reward;
And duty done
Made common level for all men.
But 1 have wrought a change;
BY me is duty oVerthroWn,
And bring labor down,
Uncapped before the world.
To hold it's hand out,
Cringing to the dust,
To catch what those who give may drop.
1 put the beggars brand
On all who takeSIne as their own,
And make a land of underlings
OF that which manhood claimed
And set apart
AS one and only of its kind.
I am the Tip,
The dollar or the dime,
And back of me
The spirit of the old time stands,
| 7 am the plain confession of the weak
That they must have the strong
To bow before
And render service to;
break the Declaration into bits
And make the Flag
4 colored supplement to shame;
am all things
Un-American,
And yet live and thrive and spread,
And kill the spirit of the land
That has adopted me-
My followers ask no thanks,
Revile them If you will,
But give them Me
And they will be content
I make them draw the line
Between the servant and the served;
They set the turnkey seal
Upon themselves,
And lose their manhood for a tip.
That's Me;
See?

papacy with the house of Hohenstaufen,
He had personal struggle with Fred

his stiTup for him to mount his horse

at that time, was almost a matter of life
and death.

'M'Iiss" at the Grand.
1t is a question whether any attraction
that appeared at the Grand last season,
gave the satisfaction and pleased
theater goers in so decided a manner as
Frederick Warde. The appearance of
this distinguished classical actor at popu-
lar prices was surely bargain event and
it was evidently so considered by the
manner in which theater goers flocked
to witness his performances. MIR. Warce
was wise in his decision e provide a
strong supporting company, and even
though his appearance was at popular
prices, it was acknowled ed that the
strength of his supporting contingent
and the strength of his productions as
whole, was greater and more elaborate
than when he had appeared at high
prices some years before. Mr.. Warde is
now inFthe zenith of his successful career
and his tour the past two years has been
one continual triumph.

best Shakespearean scholars in the coun-

Black Diamonds.

Black diamonds are comparatively
rare and correspondingly high priced.
They are three or four times as hard as
the white ones, and fire cannot harm
them, however great the heat, but II
drop Of water should touch them while
heated they will explode and leave
nothing but little heap Of sand In
their place.
Their beauty is not remarkable, but
on account of their extreme hardness
they are Invaluable for dressing sur
faces impervious to the friction of any
other material. The largest black dia-
monds are set In the end Of round
short bar of steel, with a handle Of
wood, and are used in dressing emery
wheels that have lost their "trueness."
"A black diamond is the only substance
that will not be ground away by con-
tact with the emery surface.
Black diamonds are also used as
points In scoring pencils which are
used by sealers of weights and meas
ures to mark glass receptacles. They
are used by dentists for drilling teeth
before filling them with gold. In APP
pearance they look more like shining
little splinter of iron or grain Of coal
than a precious gem, and their chief
s,.ssion is a distinctly commercial and
not an ornaIuentaI 49,

Bosfon's "LfttIe Italy"

TOMS Little Italy" is established in the
very quarter where Paul Revere lived
and whence he bore the message or
the belfry. The Old North square rip
ples with the color and music OF for
eign faces and tongues. The Old North
church itself cannot have far to go
to neighbor with Franciscan chapeis
and Roman Catholic cathedrals, the
whole medley of foreign world usurp-
ing that place where once Puritanism
reigned supreme.
They say that the Boston Italians are
very thrifty, that from being good rent
payers they are becoming notable prop
.erty buyers. They are a music loving
and art loving people. go to the
Museum of Fine Arts on the free days
and see these same Italians, in their
rags and hobnall shoes, men, women
and children, standing before the finest
things In the gallery and approaching
them"
{ And that sight reminds a writer In

preservation of the Italian tongue in
its purity, "as only the Siennese now

A Thinkers Dam.

There is no profanity In saying that
any certain thing SIS not worth a tink-
er's DAM" although 1t is so considered
by many. The expression originated
many years ago, when tinkering, or
mending. leaky vessels was much crud-
er than 1t is now.
In former times the use Of rosin to
check the flow of solder when placed
on tin was not generally understood, at
least by the rowing tinkers. When one
of these gentlemen Of the road found q
Job, such as mending a wash boiler or
other tin household utensil. he would
get from the housewife or domestic
piece Of soft dough. With this he
would build a dam around the place
where he intended to put his solder.
Inside of the circle thus formed he
poured the melted lead. When the
metal had cooled, he would brush
away the dam Of dough that had con-
fined 1t to the desired limits. The heat
had hardened the heavy paste and
baked 1t thoroughly, so that it was abb
solutely Of no use for anything else. 1t
became one Of the most useless things
in the world, and there was not enough
Of 1t even to be worth while carrying to
the pigs.
Hence the expression, which was
originally intended to convey a certain
idea, appears to have been retained,
while the origin is not generally
known.

John Russell and other friends they
were one day crossing q Scotch loch,
and In course of some conversation
with a boatman, from whom they were
trying to elicit information as to his
views on the beauty Of the surround
ing landscape, the man assured them
that the water Of the loch had a spe-
clal value. When asked to explain
what 1t was, he remarked that it had
the reputation Of making the finest
toddy In Scotland.-Chambers' Journal
