Tickling the I,ei,.a.a.

John Barrett WAS only twenty seven
years old when President Cleveland
appointed him minister TO Siam. The
fist important task which confronted
the youthful envoy was to press a
claim against the Siamese government
for $1,00o00O. Experienced ambassa-
dors warned him against using threats
in obtaining the money. BE cunning;
avoid arrogance" they said.
"Tliat is responded Mr.. Barrett,
you favor tickling with a straw to
pricking With bayonet."
The statesmen nodded assent
When the young minister had finally
succeeded in collecting the claim the
ambassadors asked in astonishment,
How did you accomplish it?'

had to tickle them almost to death,
though, before they agreed to pay it."

Eound a PARALLEL.

An English country vicar discovered
not long ago that one Of his male
servants was in the habit of stealing
his potatoes. He mentioned the fact
to his curate and asked advice.
"Well," replied the curate, "of course
you must remember what the Bible
says, IF any man take away thy coat
let him have thy cloak also''
II see," mused the vicar. "Well, in
this case, as the man takes my pota-
toes I'd better give him the sack!

Coffee For the 1nehrinte.

A Traveller has made the observation
that coffee drinking people are very
seldom given to drunkenness. In Bra
zil, for instance, where coffee is grown
extensively and all the inhabitants
drink it many times day, intoNication
is rarely seen. The effect is not only
noticeable among the natives, but the
foreigner who settles there, though
possessed Of ever such a passion for
strong drink, gradually loses his liking
for alcohol as he acquires the coffee
drinking habit of the Brazilian.
