ern nations that 1.-THE affairs Of life

are like the man who, being accused
of breaking his promise, replied that
it was of no consequence, as he could
make another just as good. The Chi
nese say that one should never re-
fuse a request in an abrupt manner;
on the contrary, he should grant it
in form, although with no intention
to do so in substance. PUT him off

tomorrow. Thus you comfort his

TRUSTS IN FORMER DAYS.
In Ancient Times MonopoIfsts Corr
nered Food Stuffs and Other
&.E- Products.

The cornering of foodstuffs by mon
archs and their agents is said to have
been the earliest form of trust that
ever existed and as they had the power
to prevent any bear movement in OPP
position their deals could not help be-
ing successful ones. Accounts of such
transactions are to be found in Assyr-
ian records dating back 1000 or 5000
years; and the Bible describes very
large operation of this kind carried out
by Joseph, when, out of the wealth of
the seven fat years, he provided for the
poverty of the seven lean ones. The
Romans did the same thing through
their tax farmers, who laid embargoes
on the food supplies of the provinces
against arrears of taxes, and the prob
ability is that similar operations were
also conducted with regard to manu-
facturers.
2 Another form of monopolies, known
as trade guilds, has existed from very
early times, and these, in the middle
ages, amounted practically to the cor
nering of certain arts and industries
as well as means of distribution. The
greatest of them was the famous
league of the Hanse towns. So close
Combine" was this that it possessed
its own fleets of armed merchantmen
and even armies of mercenaries in or
der to guard its monopoly length to
which not even American capitalists
have yet ventured to proceed.

GEOGRAPHY AND FINANCE.
ROusinE Repartee Between an Amer
lean and q Britisher Over Some
Window Pictures.

An American and an Englishman
met the other day before show win
dow in Broadway, in which was dis
played a large Autograph in colors
of Cincinnati, showing how that city
looked 40 years ago, says the New
York Times.
ssWhat is the town noted for?"
asked the Englishman.
90, lot of things" was the re-
ply. Pork, whisky, hills, hot weather
in summer, big music halls, and then
it's the home of Senator Foraker
IT dare say either would make it
famous. But you'll excuse me when
say never heard of the town before"
SWELL, it's the town where old man
Zimmerman lived, and his daughter
married the Duke of Manchester"
'.Ah, yes. You Americans, with the
assistance of our scions, have yonr

sistance of our girls, have your bank

A PUPPY's RAPID GROWTH.
Devours Mrs. New1y-Wed's Bread
Dough and BECOMES Rdoated
MnnNt rnRitY.

A few months ago young man
who is employed in one of the rail-
road offices of this city bought very
small pointer pup. The dog grew
steadily, but mainly in the head and
legs, having no body to speak of,
relates the Portland Oregonian. The
lady Of the household, like many
newly married women, was making a
thorough test of her husbands di-
gestive powers by baking bread for
the family. The pointer pup was now
taking on the appearance of a genu-
inc dog, and put in most of his time
looking for something to eat. He
found Just what he was looking for.
Mrs. Newly-Wed had placed pan
containing three loaves in the state
Of dough under the kitchen stove
and had gone upstairs for a few min
lutes. Like many new bread-makers,
she was generous in the use Of yeast,
and her bread was usually lighter
than D sponge. When she returned
the dough had been transferred from
the pan to the interior of the point
err, who was already showing signs
of distress. The yeast was getting
in its deadly work, and gradually
the dogs body began to swell. The
head, which had formerly been the
most prominent feature of his make
up, was quite eclipsed beside the
bursting body. The legs looked like
toothpicks supporting beer key.
The poor pointer was now writing
in agony, and after several neighbors
had proposed various strenuous
measures, an application of saleratus
water brought relief.

Hebrew ExcIusixeness.

statistics of New South Wales show

mated with Catholics and II found
their afinities in the Presbyterian
fold. One hundred and fifty-one Jews
united to Anglican wives, 81 to Catho.

GAVE A LARGE REWARD.
So Thought the Bestower and the
Young Hero Who Received
the Money.

'sThe following story will illustrate a
number of things" said the Detroit
ship owner who narrated it, shut
chiefly will it show how the value of
money varies with the supply.
"A boy was telling me of his Prov
ess as a swimmer. He could dive, too.
"'Once,' said he, I dived down to
the bottom of the river and pulled a
little boy out
sBravol' said I.
"tAn' I tell YOU he continued, his
pa was glad! He give me r1ollar-an'-
a-quarter.'
''Both the father and the hero live
in a neighborhpod the occupants of
which are sometimes known as wharf
rats'-the neighborhood or the docks.

owner, according to the Detroit Free
Press, that the acknowledgements
was as large to the man as to the

aoIJINCY ADAMS SAWYER

Quincy Adams Sawyer was played
at Polls last evening to an audience
that could easily have been larger and
more appreciative. The great num-
Der of empty seats in the pitt at
least, seemed to chill those who sat
near them, but there was enough APP
DIause heard in the galleries to keep
the players warm at least. The play
was decidedly good. 1t was as inter-
esting and pleasing as when it first
came out two or three seasons ago.
While it was of the really truly rural
kind it had great many elements
that rendered it a play apart altogether
from the country cross roads. 1t had
no Iand salxes alive ordinations,
nor blood curdIing "by goshes," and
its most distinctive feature was that it
had no bad man or wronged woman,
no eternal william turning up in the
most unexpected places, while evident
II to make up for this great loss it
had two heroes. Those who have read
the book Of course know all this, but
many do not care for such books, yet
like the shows based on them. And
another startling departure from the
regular shows was that at final cur
tain not a character was on the stage.
The company on the whole was good.
If the prices charged had been higher,
there js no question that the audience
would have been larger

Inst Tribe Locatcd.

The remnant of a remarkable and
hitherto lost tribe of Eskimos has re-
Gently been discovered on Southamp-
ton island, at the extreme north end
of Hudson bay. 1t is said that until
recently these people have never had
an opportunity of seeing a white
man. Their huts are built of the
great jaws of whales, covered with
skins. In the middle is an elevation,
on which is a stone lamp used for
lighting, heating, cooking, melting
snow and drying clothes. The lamp
is only dish of whale oil, in which
is a wick of dry moss. Indeed, the
whale is the chief means by which
these people live. the bones being
utilized for making plates, cups and
sledges, but they also use sledges of
walrus tusks, with deer antlers for
crosspieces. The tribe is almost ex.
tinct, as only some 16 are left. They
speak q dialect peculiar to them
selves and are very daring hunters
