CONDUCTORS HONEST RAKEOFF
Takes In Many Coins with Pre- mi q ms
ON Them and Turns Them to
Good Account.

A conductor of Sixth avenue car,
during lull in the ringing of fares,
stood passing coins from one hand
to the other, turning up the date
of each coin as he did so, relates the
New York Times. "There are more
ways of making money than by
knocking down fares" he remarked,
noting the inquiring look on a pas
senger's face. "Any greenhorn can
pocket a dozen nickels in collecting
12O fares in a car built for 4S pas
sengers, but a man has got to know
something to spot a coin that has
a premium value. It's surprising how
many more or less rare coins pass
current without falling into the
hands of some one who knows their
value. This was suggested to me
one day, and took to studying the
catalogues of dealers in rare coins
and memorizing the dates of those
that are worth more than the prices
stamped on them. Since then I have
picked out of the money have taken
in fares several hundred coins with a
premium value ranging from a few
cents to five dollars, and have re-
deemed them with my own money
and sold them to dealers in coins"

origin ever since it was first intro
duced into the English language a
dozen or fifteen years ago, and, al
though the Century dictionary gives
it place, and numerous explanations
have been offered in extenuation of its
existence as a credited word, it's origin
has ever been in doubt, says the Phila-
delphia Record. According to Phila'
delphia art patron the use of the word
as typifying a passe story may be
traced to Edwin A. Abbey, the artist,
who, since studying at the academy
of fine arts in this city, has arisen to
the prominence of painting picture
of the coronation of King Edward VII.
at the kings command. After leaving
Philadelphia for New York Mr.. Abbey
was a prominent member of the Tile
club, and at the meetings he always
told the same story. It was point
less story about man who had a
chestnut farm, who never made any
money because he couldn't resist the
temptation to give his crop away. Mr..
Abbey always began this story in
different way, but would gradually
lead up to it until his hearers would
recognize it and cry: "Chestnuts!"
And in that way, according to the art
patron, the word gradually assumed
it's slang significance.

OLD MAIDS AS LISTENERS.
Patient Souls Into Whose Ears the
Countless Condolences of 9th
ers Are Poured.

The good listeners, on the other
hand, are the old maids to whose
speech nobody pays any attention,
yet to whom everybody talks. writes
Miss Lille Hamilton French. in Cen
fury. And I wonder. considering
how many condolences men have
poured into their ears, and how, many
other things men have found to say
about them. that not a gentleman
has yet been found good and gener-
Gus enough to pay tribute to this
surprising excellence in spinsters-
an excellence so dear to the mascu-
line mind. How many old-maid
aunts, indeed. have nephews not be-
guiled? How many old-maid sisters
have not opened their ears to the
self-praise of their unsuccessful
brothers who have missed hearing
at the bar, or in the pulpit, or wher-
ever there was competition among
men?
Patient souls, these old maids, lis
tening to each of us as mother
only listens to her own, and who
have listened so long that at last
they have the air of never expecting
anyone to pay attention to them
They venture into speech on their
own account, as timid mice into par
lors, ready on the instant to whisk
about and seek cover again. These
though, are the old maids for whom
corners are never lacking, so eager
are the very least among men to
assure themselves of hearing some
where.

About Eau de Cologne.

How many of those who use eau de
cologne from Cologne daily, one might
almost say hourly, are aware of the
fact that it was invented by an Italian
and not by son of the fatherland
which gives it a name? asks the Pail
Mall Gazette. Almost 200 years ago an
Italian priest, Giovan Maria Farina,
whose name is seen on every authentic
bottle, eked out his modest fortune by
selling perfumery, little art objects,
ard SO on, at Domodossola. In 1702,
happening to be in Cologne and making
use of some of the finest vegetable pro-
auctions of the country, he discovered
the secret of the miraculous perfume,
which has never been revealed to this
day, except to his descendant.

FOUL AIR IN RAILROAD CARS.
Something Which AnOrds Experts on
Ventilation an Opportunity to
DistfnRuish Themselves.

A great many people have way OF
talking of how sleepy travelling makes
them. They say that they cannot be
long in a railway train and remain
awake. This phenomenon is attrlb-
uted somehow to the act of travel
ing, but the plain fact is that 1T is due
to more or less asphyxiation, says the
Hartford Courant. The car needs not
to be in motion. 1t is enough to enter
it and begin upon the experience.
Whoever does travel much has to be
struck with the shocking condition OF
the atmosphere in whatever car ne
may enter. It is the first thing one
thinks of when he passes the door.
Then he looks about and sees how
many of the passengers are dropping
in their seats, more or less doped, and
all of them used up.
Now the whole trouble is with the
ventilation of the car. There is no
other human habitation, not even the
theaters and the churches, that begins
to be so i'll or SO little ventilated as
the railroad car. This is not right.
For much of the time the car is IN mo-
ton, and there must be some easy
way to change the air in a moving
chamber.
The closeness and discomfort of the
Pullman are attributable to the lndl-
rect influence of the warm climate OF
Africa. That country is put in con-
troll of tie car and proceeds to estab-
lish the African climate there. But
other cars fare little better. They
are all OF them devoid of ventilation,
all of them stuffy and unhealthy, and
all of them a discredit to the makers
and managers. There ought to be some
sensible crank on ventilation (most OF
the ventilation cranks are so ultra as
to escape the charge of being sensible)
to open reasonable agitation on the
subject that shall compel attention

KING GUARDS HOME LIFE.
Edward Takes Steps to Stop Publ
cation Of Interviews with His
Chance Visitors.

Much as he appreciates the pomp
and circumstance of royalty on public
and state occasions, King Edward is
annoyed by the publication of details
in his private life which have recently
been appearing in the daily and week
~ newspapers, states the New York
Sun.
After each visit of theatrical com
pany or individual performers at San
dringham or Windsor the newspapers
have been filled with interviews with
the actors who gave descriptions OF
the scenes. One actor described a
conversation at supper; another gave
a kindly, appreciative account OF the
kaiser's actions. An actress did much
the same for the queen. She also de-
scribed how the customs in the royal
circle had been altered. The charity
bob," as the short curtsey which was
used in Queen Victoria's time was
called, has disappeared, and all the Ia
dies make sweeping curtsies. The
slight bow over the sovereign's hand
has been replaced by very low bow
almost as if a person were going to
kiss the hand of the king.
His majesty has nowintimated to his
friends that he is OF the opinion that
the privacy of his home life should
be as sacred as that of the meanest of
his subjects. At a dinner one day last
week the king declared that he disliked
all interviews and personalities in the
newspapers.
Twice during the past two weeks
King Edward has taken decisive steps
to carry out the new plan. When
equality Street. was performed at
Windsor it was intimated that no par
ticular account should be given to the
newspapers in addition to the official
one in the Court Circular. When the
company returned to London it was
noticed that every member refused to
be interviewed.
The other instance was when the
king gave commission for special
photograph of Sandringham for an
illustrated magazine article but he
added that pictures should not be

ments or the large reception rooms.
Sir Edward Russell, writing on this
subject in the Liverpool Post says:
ut ought to be frankly pointed out
that the most notable people in society
themselves write paragraphs about
our doings. I know at least five peer
esses' who do not scruple to tell their
intimate friends that they drop line
every week to a journalist intimating
where they have been. Indeed, their
passion for imparting information and
elf-advertisement is boundless."

work He gives His children to do for
Him. Here was a powerful factor in
the accomplishment of the great pub
lie and religious enterprises which he
had entirely overlooked. A new hope
kindled in his breast as he felt the
arm of God was linked in his to the
successful completion of the great
work. 1t was different man who
went out to direct the work on the
wall and at the temple the next morn
ing. Discouragements and difficulties
became stepping stones to success. He
knew that what he could not do Gods
Spirit would do. He knew he did not
have to scold and drive any more. A
new light burned in his eye. Con-
fidence was marked in his every move
and tone. It was no longer Zerubba-
bel and God, but God and Zerubba bel.
The people noted the change. They
realized their leader had had revela-
ton and that new hope burned with
in his breast. And by the mysteri-
Gus workings of the Spirit of God it
began to spread, until the heavy feet
and tagging hands became trans
formed into quick feet and eager
hands, and as though by magic the
walls of the city and the temple be-
gan to grow. Zerubbabel had learned
the supremely important lesson of Civ.
ing God chance. You and 1 need to
learn it, too, if we would do successful
work for Him. Oh, that the message
that was blazoned upon the heart of
Zerubbabel might burn itself deep into
the heart of every Christian: "Not by
might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,
