CLOTHES AND THE MAN.
A Boy Taught Valuable Truth
which he Still Remembers.

Wh1ch hc Sttll hencDiDeFhs
"You can't judge a man by the
clothes he wears" said Edward II.
Hill. Twenty years ago my father
had a jewelry store in Smithfeld street.
and was employed as boy of ali work.
One evening poorly dressed, rough
looking man came into the store, and
my father, thinking he was after aims.
told me to see what he wanted. l
stepped up and was about TO tell him
we could do nothing for him, when in
gruff voice he asked 10 look at a
gold watch" says a Pittsburg ex-
change.
II was completely surprised and
thought would cut his curiosity short
by showing him one Of the rlost ex-
pensiye timepieces we had. He took
the watch, examined 1t in detail and
asked IL that was the best we had. On
being told it was valued at $3.50 he
said it would do. You can imagine my
surprise had never made big sale
before.
"Now, sonny, said the man, have
you got chain to correspond with the
watch? | showed him one Of our heav-
.est gold chains. He then wanted to
look at watch charms and selected
good locket He put the locket Oh the
chain, fastened the chain 10 the watch,
put them all in his pocket and asked
me what the damages were.

TO leave the store. Upon reaching the

he laid a gold watch on the counter.

Mrs. GoeIet,s Grimy Curtains.

Every one who parades Fifth avenue
is wondering how long Mrs. Ogden
Goelet will persist in having her home
defaced by the grimy set Of curtains
that hang in her drawing room win
dows. The Goelet house, at Forty
ninth street and Fifth avenue, has be-
come one Of the most famous in New
York ever since Prince Henry dined
there, and the soiled curtains in the
windows cause general comment. The
curtains look rather common and be-
draggled, and several distinct spots are
to be seen from the street. Mrs Goelet
of ali the fashionables is the most un-
pretentious, but her democracy of spirit
is somewhat exaggerated in permit
ting grayish yellow lace curtains in her
house. In the matter Of dress Mrs.
Goelet is extremely simple and affects
rich black gowns that are inconspicu-
GUS. Her carriage alone smacks Of dis
play, because the men on the box wear
fawn coats and elaborate bear capes,
while their legs are incased in yellow
boots.-New York Press.

Clay sGButter,v

1t is not generally known that In
many parts of the world clay is eaten
on bread as a substitute for butter.
This Is termed "stone butter" and Is
used in Germany. In the northern
parts Of Sweden earth is often baked
in bread and Is sold in the public mar
kets on the Italian peninsula as well
as on the Island Of Sardinia, Persia,
Nubia and other tropical countries.
This practice probably had Its origin
In the knowledge that all earths have
some sort Of flavor and take the place
Of salt, a necessary ingredient in all
kinds Of food.

when PnttI Says Farewell.

In connection with the report that
Nine. Patti cOntemplates one more
American tour next summer this story
Is told: Baron Cedarstrom, the diya's
youthful husband, called on an Amer
ican manager In London some months
ago and said he thought it would be u
good idea for Patti to tour the country
in concert, adding that it might be an
nounced as her farewell appearance.
The manager gazed mildly at the
young man and seemed making men-
tai calculation. Then he said. Il was
going to say that your wife must have
made her last farewell tour Of the
United States before you were born,
but that would have been an exagger-
ation But it must have been while
you were learning your letters in Swe-
den; SO, you see, the plans not alto

SrxeI,inr Her Income,

A good story Is told Of a man who
one day told his wife that he would
give her all the silver pieces she found
In his purse or pockets which were
coined the year she was born.
AS a result the lady in due course Of
time had quite an amount Of silver on
hand-so much, IN fact, that she went
to the bank and deposited 1t In her
name.
Then, speaking to the cashier, the
lady said; My husband tells me you
are going to pay him some money to-
day. VIII you please pay him in this
silver have just deposited? | should
be so much obliged to you If you
would"
OF course the cashier quickly replied
that he would be happy to please her.
AS d result the lady mas still more

Recnrnizcd the Smell.

The sexton Of an Episcopal church In
Boston has many stories to tell Of the
remarks and comments made by Wis
itors.
One Christmas when the church was
beautifully decorated with cedars and
frs an old lady walked up the aisle
to the chancel and stood smiling the
air after every one else had left the
church.
Don't it smell solemn" she said at
last to the sexton as she turned away
with evident reluctance. Il don't know

Of sanctity' meant before today. We

the greatest Soul Nluuelb vi hlo uoJ
1t was physical pain that helped draw
the multitudes to the cross when Rob
ert Hall preached in London and John
Summerhcld preached in America. And
It Is physical pain which nearly all OF
US have suffered in the past and phys
ical weakness which many OF us arc
suffering now which ought to make us
turn our faces toward the Good Ply
sician who can heal the body and heal
the soul
Two Kinds of Trouble.
Now, trouble comes to US In one OF
two ways, and II rests with every one
to decide In which Of the two ways II
shall come to him. 1t may come as a
Sanctifed trouble or as an unsanctified
trouble. 1t came In both forms to the
thieves who were crucified with Jesus.
To the one thief the physical agony
was unsanctifed trouble, causing him
to curse and deride Christ; to the other
It came as sanctifled trouble, causing
him to plead for mercy and love. Un-
sanctified trouble comes to man who
stands by his chlld's open casket, and 1t
imbitters him and causes him to set his
Jaw in rebellion and say, mo good God
would have taken that child out Of my
arms" Sanctihed trouble came to a
young officer Of my church and caused
him 70 say to the visiting minister: Il
do not want a pastor to come into my
sickroom to make merely social call.
I want him to come in to pray; yes, l
want him to come in to pray" In the
midst Of your sorrows and trials are
you ready to let your troubles become
sancti1ed troubles? Are you ready to
sing about the tempestuous nights OF
trouble, as the Christian poet once sang
about beautiful Lake Galilee?
It is not that the wild gezelle
Comes down TO lap thy tide,
But he that was pierced TO save from hell
Oft wandered by thy side.
Graceful around thee the mountains meet,
Thou calm, reposing sea.
But, ah, far more the beautiful feet
OF Jesus walked DER thee.
Are you ready to feel that In the
darkest hours OF your night Christ is
waiting to speak to you, that Christ Is
ready to help you, that he is ready to
appear unto you?
There is an old and familiar story Of
4 Christian lady in the far east who
had two beautiful boys. Both her sons
died in the same night while her hus
band was away on journey. When
the father returned, the mother met
him with a smile and said: Husband,
while you were gone stranger came
and left two beautiful jewels In my
charge. Then he returned the next
day and wanted them back again. |
gave them to him. Should have done
soY Yes" answered the father. IF
the two jewels belonged to the stran-
ger, you should have done as you did"
"Oh, husband" answered the wife as
she led him into the death chamber, Il
was not talking about stranger, but
about our Father, God. There are our
two boys, dead Can we not say; The
Lord gave. and the Lord hath taken
away. Blessed be the name OF the
LordT"

Jaclson.s Statue on the Constitution

JachsOn'S statue on TIE CDnstl. ution'
In 1893 Commodore Elliott ordered a
figure Of General Jackson to be carved
to take the place Of Il billet head which
the United States frigate Constitution
had carried through the war Of 1872.
1t was placed on the bow OF the frigate
in June, 1884. when she left the dry
dock In CharlestOUn navy yard. The
excitement among the political enemies
Of Jackson in Boston was intense. A
meeting WAS called In Faneuil hall
which, however, did not take place
and anonymous letter writers threaten
ed the life Of the commodore unless the
statue was removed. On the night Of
the I'd OF July. 1884. in the midst Of a
terrific thunderstorm. Samuel Z. Dew
ey, Il young man Of tventy-eight rowed
out to the vessel and managed to saw
off the head Of the statue and carry 1t
away. The head was replaced a month
later In New York. and the figure re-
mained there until 1874. 1t now occu-
pies place in the grounds Of the Naval
school at Annapolis.

When the Morniry Came.

But one day the NJ spapers all over
the country had the startling telegraph
ic announcement, "Dr. So-and-so Is

So-and-so might die. For weeks and
months that famous minister lowered
between life and death. Then he came
back to his pulpit and to his work. But
now what q change! If any stranger
goes to hear him preach, the first and
the last thought he has is: "Dr. SO-and-
so is nothing more or less than mighty
gospel evangelist. He has Christ In
the beginning Of his sermon, Christ in
the middle Of his sermon. Christ all the
way through" Do you know the cause
Of this marvellous change? 1t was the
Galilean tempest Of physical pain that
did It. DR.. So-and-sO told me that new
er before did he truly know what the
purpose Of preaching was until he lay
upon that bed of suffering. Fer months

when God led him forth out Of that
GalIcan tempest to preach Jesus
Christ he came forth a new man. He
was a Saul, the member Of the He
brew sanhedrin changed into the
mighty Paul who had fought with the
beasts at EDhesus. He became the dis
ciple Of the Lord, looking and pleading
for a spiritual Christ alone.
