Seductive Brandy Drops
Sold TO Children

NEW YORK, Nov. 12.-The sale
in Brooklyn of brandy drops to school
children has become so common that
the Department of Health has been
asked to stop it. A crusade against
confectioners who manufactured and
sold these drops was made about two
years ago by the Health Board and the
sale of them was temporarily stopped
AS soon as vigilance was relaxed the
confectioners again started selling them
This is particularly true in districts
where there are public schools. In al
most every shop where candy is sold
brandy drops can be bought The pro-
prietors sell to small children as well
as to bigger ones. Many complaints
have come Of the sale of the brandy
drops. Investigation has proved that
the sale is general throughout the city.

During the Sikh war the late Field

the Dog That Served the Purpose o4
"a Ventril0Q
The following story is told of ven
triloquist, now famous, but at the time
of this happening sc hard up he used 10
walk between the cities where he was
to appear. On one Of these tours he
came to Philadelphia on foot, and on
the road he picked up a miserable little
dog because it looked so much like he
felt" The story will explain what be-
came of the dog.
The first house he came to was sa.
loon, and Of course he wanted q drink.
He had no money, but went in anyhow
to see what he could do. The proprie
tor, German, said:
"Well, what will you have?"
He said, "Ill take a little whisky"
ind then, turning to the dog. he asked:
''What will you have?"
The answer came very promptly:
"I'll take a ham sandwich
The German was so surprised he al.
most tainted. He looked at the dog a
moment and then asked:
what did you sayT
The dog replied:
"T said ham sandwich"
Hans thought it wonderful that dog
should be able to talk and asked who
had trained him, how long it had taken,
etc, and woun1 up with:
How much you take for him?"
"Oh," said Mr.. Ventriloquist, ~
wouldn't sell him at any price. but l
am little hard up now, and If you will
lend me $50 I'll leave him with you till
I bring back the money"
"All right" said Hans. II just want
him for a little while so / can show
him to some smart people l know
around here"
So everything was settled, the money
paid, etc, and as the ventriloquist went
out he turned and waved his hand to
the dog and said:
"Well, goodby, Jack. I'll come back
soon."
The dog looked at him and said:
"You mean son of gun, to sell me
for $50 after all I've done for you! So
help me Moses, I'll never speak another
wcrd as long as livey'
And he didn't.-Philadelphia Times.
The Elder sothern's Tact.
1t was in the year 1868 or 1864. Dur.
ing the summer months Sothern, with
John 7. Raymond and several other
we'll known actors, occupied the local
thCater of seaside summer resort, to
which he and his company drew a
houseful OF people several nights in
the week to hear and see them act
rehearse it really was in preparation
for their next winters New York sea-
son-the most important of Shake
speare's plays.
The little building had of course a
gallery, and in the gallery the gods
became SO obstreperous on occasions
that it was with great difficulty the
play could be proceeded with. The
ringleader, q well known rough of the
town, was a man named Bill Hanra-
han. One night happy inspiration
seized Sothern. Having learned the
came Of this prominent member of the
rowdy element, he addressed him in
the midst OF the most unearthly noises
as follows: "Mr. Hanrahan, win you
be good enough to take charge of the
gallery and keep order for me, and
shall feel very grateful" The result
wes magical. Bill became at once an
official of the theater and as such
cracked the heads of few of his erst-
while fellow rioters with such good eff
feet that it was only n little time he
