OLD FAMILIES OF VENICE.
Their Fortunes Are Dissipated and
Their Palaces sold

Their Fortunes Are Dfssipated and
Their Palaces Sold.
Very few of the fine old palaces of
Venice belong to the descendants Of the
families who built and originally occu-
pied them. Very little of the enormous
wealth for which Venice was celebrat-
ed in the fifteenth century remains
The most OF It has been dissipated by
the descendantS of the men who made
it, the same as In England, France and
other countries. The rich men of Ven
ice today are an entirely new class OF
people, whose names do not appear in
the Golden Book, winch coiiitt;asiiii ii d a
list Of the patrician families in Venice
who were invited to festivities at the
palace. This book was instituted in
1875 and thenceforth until the Aus
trian occupation was the index and
standard of nobility by which all claims
to precedence were decided.
Occasionally the grand council, by a
vote, rewarded the gallantry or public
services of some citizen of humble
birth by directing that his name be in
scribed upon its pages. None but those
whose names were in the Golden Book
could use the golden stairs wien they
entered a doge's palace, and when this
right was conferred it was equivalent
to an order of nobility In another coun-
try. There is one notable exception to
the decay of the ancient families. and
he is Count Grimani, who traces his
lineage back to one of the most ia
nous of the doges, whose portrait,
painted by Titan, hangs in the council
chamber of the doge's palace. The
Grimani palace is on the Grand canal,
near the Rialto bridge. and is cele-
brated for its finely sculptured capt.
tails.
Many of the rich men in Venice to-
day are Jews. They practically control
the banking business and manufactur-
ing. They own the fine houses of his
torical interest and the best paying es-
tates on the mainland in the neigh
borhood. The present wealth of Venice
is invested not SO much in real estate
as in banking, manufacturing, -four
mills. elevators, gas companies. cotton
mills, the manufacture of glass and in
steamships upon the Adriatic.-Chicago

A Tough Negro.

Stories Of brute toughness and Ho-
meric endurance are tenderly preserv-
ed in the folklore of the water front
how, for instance, Scipio Flanagan,
''the biggest niger In the business .
supported the entire weight of an i'm
mense packing case. weighing upward
of 1900, on his PROSTATE body The
negro held the hand truck to receive
the case, which in the hands of half a
dozen men was being balanced at just
the right angle to slip into place. But
it hit the edge of the truck and knock
ed it away, and the negro unluckily
lost his footing and fell fiat with the
great box on top of him. He shrieked
In terror and groaned, it was said, like
siren whistle, but when a gang of
fifteen men lifted the thing bodily and
pulled him out all he did was to screw
his fists into his eyes like big child,
stretch his long limbs grotesquely and
return to work. OF course he talked
about this feat for many day.-Frank
Leslie's Monthly.

q collector turn green with envy.
Suaye officials presented him with due
bills for goods that had come half way
around the world, and other officials
suggested that he settle with Uncle
Sam for tariff rates, and so it came to
pass that he spent most of the week
before Christmas in the custom house
settling with the appraisers and ours
ing the robbery of the transatlantic
companies and the tariff rates Of the
United States.
On the evening before Christmas he
was in his office footing up the bills
when idea came to him. He pulled
out a private drawer and carefully
compared the dates of all the letters.
Then he looked at the accumulated
amount of the bills, exactly $614.2 %.
Again he thought harder than before.
Slowly light began to dawn on his in
ner consciousness.
by Jove, but it was cleverY' he said.
''And to think that | never suspected
anything when gave her all those ad-
dresses" After which he put on his
hat, went up town to fashionable
furrier's and bought a dream of
sealskin jacket
Got any-er-any engagements for
tomorrow, Josephine?" he inquired
that evening at dinner.
His wife looked serenely across the
table at him and arched her eyebrows
delicately.
Tomorrow, dear7 No. Why? Do
you want to go to the Office earlier
than usual?''
"Of1ce! Well, no! The fact is, 1
thought I'd take day off tomorrow"
1t was 10 o'clock the next morning
when van about the size of an apart
ment house drew up in front of the
Talbot residence. An hour later, amid
the gorgeous scenic effects of rugs.
Jewels, bronzes. worries, Indian dra-
peries and curios of the orient, Jo-
! sephine looked artlessly into her hus-
bands eyes and said:
How perfectly ravishing they all
are, my dear. and how nice to have
them given to US by our friends. so
they didn't cost anythingr'
Words failed Jack Talbot. He silent
~ drew from its hiding place the seal
skin jacket for his wife. and as she
slipped into it and with little femi-
nine cry Of delight felt its luxurious
warmth she thought:
Poor old jack But | had to do It."

Jack, dear, you haven't said a word
about Christmas. What shall we do?
Here are the Clendennins asking US to
come out to their house party. but
thought If we asked Molly and the
children to dinner and had Christ
mas tree 1t would be-
"What in the world are you talking
about, Josephine2 Christmas! We can
have Molly to dinner at any time, and
what do you want a Christmas tree

why, Jack, what do you mean? For
the presents for the children, Of course,
and then we could have little party,
and
"JosephineI 1 really thought you
were sensible girl. If there's piece
of nonsense on the face of the earth,
it's this row about Christmas nothing
but scrap Of Aryan sun worship left

FOOD IN FRUIT SKINS.
Hutritive Qualities In Them Believed
to BE e Brain Food.

to BE e Brain Food.
There are more nutritive qualities
hidden in the skins of fruits. cereals
and vegetables than the average per
son Is aware of. In fact, the great
bulk Of the brain building foods are in
the skins of the fruits and vegetables
we eat
If, as Savarin says, ''the destiny of
nations depends on their food" then
the destiny, whether a healthy long
life or insanity or suicide of every unit
Of the United States depends on how he
or she is fed.
If the breed SO much depends upon
food, why should not every person ca
pable of normal thought seek to pro-
her normality? Brain starvation,
through the lack of suitable brain and
nerve nourishment in our daily food,
is the sole cause of the craving for
stimulants to supply, as they do, arti-
ficially and improperly what nature
has provided in a natural form in the
skin Of the grape, which contains the
best part of the wine; in the skins of
all fruits and vegetables, and if not in
the skins of the cereals, how comes it
that stimulating properties are extract
ed from them, as the inner kernel.
the starch, is devoid of anything other
than heat gfver?
1t has been proved by chemical anal
ysis and demonstrated by microscopic
experiments that the most valuable
brain sustaining properties are resi-
dent in all skins of cereals, fruits and
vegetables. and as an instance of the
great difference to the health resultant
from partaking or rejecting the skins
here is an incident that occurred in
India, as told by an Indian officer:
A regiment was stationed in a part
Of the country where grapes were the
chief article of food The officers, one
after another, became so sick as to be
invaded as unfit for service, but it
being considered remarkable that the
troops were all well a commission of
inquiry was instituted, when it was
found that while every trooper i'll eat
Ing grapes swallowed the skins the off,
GERS followed the fashionable habit of
rejecting them. 1t was then orCered
that the officers should swallow the
skins, which was done, with the result
that they Immediately reco cred.
Thus it will be seen that ne ST. n OF
the grape. besides being a brain feeder.
possesses other healthful and nutritive
qualities necessary to the sustenance of
the human body. The reason why as
paragus, cabbage, string beans, lettuce.
spinach and other green vegetables are
SO wholesome is that the skins are not
rejected. Friend.

1t is inexplicable how the old delu-
sion that man cannot eat one quail
day for thirty days holds it's own.
Any man can eat one quail day for
thirty days. At Lawrence some years
ago Will Upton ate two quails a day
for more than thirty days For the
first week or two he starved himself
with the idea that he must keep up an
appetite. After that he sometimes ate
three or four of the birds In day.
Another old fraud on the public is
the belief that horse cannot pull a
sack of sand at the end of two hun
dred foot rope. Any COW pony in Kan
sas will go of on lope with such a
sack.-Kansas City Journal.

A Magnificent Vessel.

In 268 B. c., Archimedes devised a
marvellous ship for Hero Of Syracuse.
Her three lofty masts had been
brought from Britain, whereas our
ships masts are of iron or obtained
from New Zealand or from Vancouver
island. Luxuriously fitted sleeping
apartments abounded, and one of her
banqueting halls was paved with agate
and costly Sicilian stone Other floors
were cunningly inlaid with scenes from
the "Iliad." Stables for many horses,
ponds stocked with live fish. gardens
watered by artificial rivulets and hot
baths were provided for use or amuse-
ment.-Chambers Journal.
