ONE OF THE UTTERMOST.
Even Commercial Travellers Were
Not Beyond the Reach Of
Saving Grace.

Dan DAILY the actor, who died recently,
whenever he was Idle IN New York had a
great habit of attending Salvation Army
meetings. He believed in the Salvation
Army, and he contributed literally to its
support. Sometimes, too, he had inter.
esting things to tell about it, says the New
York Tribune.
One evening, rather late, DAILY and a
commercial traveller entered the Fifth Ave.
nue. hotel together. DAILY, with a nod to-
ward his companion, said:
my friend and | were at meeting of
the army tonight. The captain, after his
address, passed through the audience,
questioning the people. Coming to my
friend, he said:
"'What is your business, sir"
L am commercial traveller was the
answer.
"'And are you saved?
"'Oh, I'm all right
"At this reply the captain, turning to
the congregation, shouted in a loud voice.
'Hallelujah! A commercial traveller
saved. God can save to the uttermost!'" "

Fresh Meat in Africa.

A recent traveller in South Africa says
that many kinds of meat are eaten
there which no one in this country
would think of eating, some of which
are very palatable, even to fastidious
Anglo-SaXon taste. Among those
which he considers especially delicious
he mentions the giraffe, the eland, the
zebra and the guinea fowl. He also
found baked elephants trunk, baked
young elephants foot and hippopota-
mus calf bacon excellent eating. Among
the African dishes which do not APP
peal to an Americans taste may be
mentioned lions, ostriches, allgators
and snakes.

Poultney Bigelow, who has accepted

Bigelow rather awkwardly on this address
and the learned traveller replied:
That is a doubtful compliment. 1t re-
minds me of remark that a friend of the
groom's made at New Hampshire we'd

This friend, an observant chap, watched
the groom closely during the ceremony
and at the end bore down on the happy
man, shook him warmly by the hand, and
said:
