II Prize Tomato.

To supply nine persons possessed Of
healthy appetites with sufficient sliced
tomatoes from one tomato was the feat
performed by Mrs. Joshua J. w. Shock
ley, the wife of one of the round SER
geants of the Western district, last Sun
day at her home, 1887 Harlem avenue
And the tomato which assisted so ma
terially in appeasing the appetites Of
Sergeant and Mrs. ShockleX, their fam
lily and guests was plucked from a vine
in their yard. 1t weighed just twenty
two and half ounces and measured a
little over eighteen inches in circum-
ference The slices numbered about
thirty and filled two good-sized bowls
The vine from which the remarkable
vegetable was plucked was set out on
June % by Mrs. Shockley and was one
of a number that had been cultivated
earlier in the season by her husband.
There are still sixteen tomatoes on
the vine, most of them unusually large,
but none as large as the one used last
Sunday, which was the first to be
picked from that vine.-Baltimore Sun.

Market Parties
Still preDdH in
the Fair CITY

New York woman who recently re-
turned from st. Louis. where she went
to see the Worlds Fair, relates this ex-
perience:
Il stayed with one of the old famil-
les she said. "and the first morning
after my arrival one of the young
ladies of the family asked me if
would like TO join a market party.
''She saw that L was in the dark, and
explained that in ST. Louis it was an
antebellum custom for the mother Of
the family to do her own marketing.
They still have the old-fashioned mar
kets there where you can buy any
thing for the table from a chicken
liver to a quarter of beef or a leg OF
mutton. The purchaser was always
accompanied by her servant, who car
ried a huge basket. into which the
articles were placed.
MY friend informed me that the old
custom was again in vogue in St
Louis, except that the daughters. in
stead of the mothers, now do the buy
ing.
We'll. 1 submitted, of course, and
we started. On the way we were Joined
by others and by the time we reached
the market place the procession was a
block long.
Il asked why they didn't telephone
their orders or have a boy call for
them. as we do In New York They
said that was obsolete in ST. Louis.
They preferred to make their own Sc

to have for dinner. so that If they were
invited out they would know whether

Shop Girl Has
Her Say Ab0ut
UOnen Buyers

How many women who shop give a
thought to the girl behind the counter,
except to take offense if she does not
wait upon them quickly enough?" ex-
claimed shop girl in a recent burst of
confidence to New York Telegram
representative.
The girl in question can hardly be
said to have been complaining. She
was too used to being overlooked as a
human being and treated as machine
for whom constant grinding was a
necessary treatment. She simply spoke
because she felt the sympathy of the
person on the other side of the counter.
II come here at O'Clock in the morn
ing" said she, "and stay until 6 at
night [ must look pleasant and be
obliging all that time, no matter how
tired l may be or how i'll / may feel.
Mighty few women customers ever
seem to consider either of these condi-
tions. Their minds are on the goods
they want to buy, or worse still, wish
only TO look at.
These are the most trying customers
a girl has to meet. I'd speak my mind
to one of them sometimes and 1 didn' t
know I'd be reported and lose my place.
/ can't afford to do that, for there's not
a soul in the world to look out for me.
But I just wish you would watch one of
these women some day. I'll give you
the tip when you're in.
"Of course they're all womeni No
man would have the face to ask a girl
to take things out OF glass cases and to
lift down awkward boxes when he did
not intend to make a purchase. 1 can
usually tell whether a woman really
means to buy or is only getting styles.
But, after all, 1 can't tell whether she
may or may not be shoplifter. so
have to keep my eyes in the back of my
head while I'm moving about.
Think of the time l lose over such
q shopper, too. 1 have to reach GER
tain rate of sales, and I've no time nor
energy TO w2ste on persons who don't
wish to buy. When l don't see through
them of course l do my best to per-
suade them to purchase and it's very
wearying to put out useless vitality in
this way.
Just about as bad as the woman
who doesn't buy is the woman who
won't buy until she has looked over
all of your firms and every other firm s
stock. She is the bargain hunter. 1
always shift her on another girl If
can The instir It { self-preservation
is strong in us all, you know.
Yes, 1 do get tired of standing, but
there's no time to sit down even with
seats, for the stock must be looked over
and kept in order. and besides this is
a place where a girl is expected to be
busy"

Budget of Maxinas.

Rather than say nothing, men are
content to speak i'll of themselves.
A proud man can never be a loser:
no, not even when he renounces his
bride.
1t is much less for a mans honor to
distrust his friends than to be deceived
by them.
Few people have the wisdom to like
reproofs that would do them good bet
ter than praises that do them hurt.
1t is with true love, as with ghosts
and apparitions, a thing that every
body talks of and scarce anybody Nhath
seen.
The most disinterested love is, after
all. but a kind of bargain in which the
dear love. of our own selves always pro-
poses to be the gamer some way or
other.-Rochefoucau

A Word From the Baroness.
