HAN who Lost 1t.
Take an ordinary copper cent piece,

Is a business man who refuses to allow
his nalle to be used in print about the
story, but he tells the tale to many Of
his friends and he vouches for it's
truth.
In 1894. lie says he found a cen
piece, dated 1888, in the restaurant of
the Lafayette hotel. He pocketed it for
luck and as a memento of a jolly little
dinner scratched his initials on it just
over the feathered head, while on the
cheek he added those OF the hotel. I'm

"Oh," said the beggar. II don't get SO

AT once his prejudice against begging

SINGERS, High Salaries.

Heinrich Conried. who has had so
much difficulty in arranging the sala-
ries of his artists that he declares their
engagement to be the most difficult
part of the work of putting on grand
opera. has an explanation for the orr
gin Of the eXorbitant prices demanded
by foreign singers when America is
mentioned to them. A number of years
ago he was in Europe engaging artists
for his comic opera company. He offer
ed a certain singer 5000 a week to come
with him to America. The singer had
been used to getting about a third of
that sum and was on the point of ac-
cepting when he was approached by
Anton Seidl and asked his price. He
at once demanded $500 and finally COM
promised on $3.50. When he came to
read the contract he found that, after
the American fashion. he had been
signed for $3.50 a performance and not
for that amount per week. Fearing that
Mr.. Seidl might change his mind and
try to break the contract, he took the
first boat for New York and was OIL the
ground two months before the opening
Of the season.-New York Times.

Girls In Turkey,


In a recent book on his native coun-
try ar intelligent Turk writes: For
merly girls in Turkey were not allowed
to learn the mystery of caligraphy.
We have had some excellent poetesses
in days gone by, but none of them
could write; they dictated their inspira-
tons. The common explanation given
of this traditional prohibition-for it is
a custom rather than a rule-was that
If girls nee learned writing they
might have INDUCED in talismanic pas
times and eventually have become
witches. AS Il matter of fact, the real
reason was quite different. There was
a fear, perhaps not ill founded. that,
having nce learned to write, they
might hasten to make use of the ac-
complishment by composing love let
tiers to young men with whom they
could not otherwise communicate, for
the strict seclusion Of females cuts off
all intercourse between young people
Of opposite y almost as soon as
they have ceased to be infants"

Two Little Girls, Lofty Home.

On the very top of a mountain neal
Constantinople there live two little
girls. Their chubby brown feet are
unprotected even in chilly weather, but
they don't seem to mind it, for they are
just as healthy and happy as the well
dressed little European girls in Pera.
whose parents would be Mortified at
the mere mention of bare feet. These
mountain children are orphans, and
their cheeks have the color Of the
small red flower that grows among
the sparse vegetation on the ragged
side of the height. They live with
their father, who is a Greek, and their
house is little more than a pile of vel
low rock, with an Elzevir vegetable
patch in the yard.
The father serves visitors-who
climb 100 feet from the end of the
carriage road-with good thick Turk
ish coffee in cups about the size of an
English walnut shell. OF course you
give him something, and if you have
any love in your heart for the sweet
morning glory Of childhood and any
spare coins in your pocket you will
give the youngsters some of the coins.
They will take your hand, raise 1t to
their lips and then touch it to their
foreheads. They are grave, serious
faced young people, with large, Won
dering blue eyes. That is perhaps be-
cause they cannot understand a word
you say. And it is perhaps because
they have contemplated so long the
impressive view from their humble
eyrie.

A Story Of President Diax.

An army mar who has been in Mex
leo tells a story of how President Diaz
got rid Of an Objectionable gang and
saved his son-in-law, who was a mem
Der OF it. This gang had a regular
meeting place, which became SO unsa-
worry that Diaz determined to break it
up. One afternoon when the crowd
was to meet Diaz sent word to the
young man by an aid inviting him to
dine at the presidents country villa, a
few miles out of the city. More than
this, the president refused to accept
any excuses, and, as a matter of fact.
an invitation from DiaZ is a command
not to be lightly disobeyed. The SON.
in-law attended the dinner, and after
ward Diaz asked him to play billiards.
Finally the telephone bell rang, and
the president was called up. He re-
manned in conversation for some time,
and as he hung up the receiver he
turned smiling to his son-in-laws and
said:
"You may return to the city now. l

not been my guest tonight you would
have been among them. Good night"

Sweet brides all nave hushed to silence

And, wearied with their play beside the

The brown sail'd fishing boats are out

The moonbeams make for them a shining

And stars are golden bright.

o sailor, watching while we peaceful

May he who holds the ocean in his power
Your lives from danger keep.
In morning glow fair breezes speed you
home,
Gliding SO gayly Ger the sunlit sea,
While loving ones who long to see you
come

The warm home nest. wherein We shell

Before we sleep. on, lift to God a prayer
For lives at sea afar!

The Game.

This is a simple little game, but it
is instructive. for it gives boys and
girls practice in quick composition.
Give to each player a sheet of paper
and a pencil, and then ask them in
turn to name a letter of the alphabet
until ten letters have been so named.
If there are mo- ten players some Of
them may be asked to name two let
tiers each.
Each player writes these letters one
after another at the top of his sheet
OF paper, and is then asked to write
a telegram Of ten words. the words
beginning with the ten letters in their
regular order.
Suppose, for example, that the let
tiers named are J, 7, o, r, B. H. A, S,
d, l. Here is a telegram that might
be formed on them: Johnny tumbled
off roof; broke his ARM; send doctor

reads them aloud and awards a prize.

TOR II CHILDREN
A Finland Boys Bath.

When the boys Of Finland want to
take a bath this is the way they do it:
In the first place. it is very, very cold
in Finland. and the bath room is not in
the house at all, but is a building quite
separate.
1t is a round building. about the size
of an ordinary room There are no
windows. so light and air can only
come in when the door is open.
Inside benches are built all along the
wall, and in the center is a great pile
Of loose stones. EARLY Oh Saturday
morning word is brought in. ana a
great vessel standing near the stones is
filled with water. .
Then some n ut ever so many
birch switches, and these are placed On
the floor of the bath house. Next, the
fire is made under the stones, and it
burns all morning. In the afternoon,
when the stones are very hot, the fire
is put out, the place is swept clean, and
all is ready.
AiS oOyo u1AOlSoo Ia JAC1l AollSS III
run to the bath house. AS it is gener.
ally 80 below zero, you may be sure
they do it in double quick time.
AS soon as they are in the bath
house they shut the door tight and be-
gin to throw water on the hot stones.
This. Of course, makes the steam rise.
Moro water is thrown on, and there is
more steam until the place is quite full
Of it.
And now comes the part that l think
you American boys would not like at
all. Each boy takes a birch switch
and falls to whipping his companions.
This is to make the blood circulate,
and, though it is real hard whipping, nc
one objects, but all think it great fun.
At last, looking like a lot Of boiled lob
sters, they all rush out, have a roll in
the snow and make for home.-New
York Herald.
