Almost every woman in France does her own marketing and ladies take their maid or cook along 10 carry home their purchases. writes Jeanne Consteniin. in Good Housekeeping. am speaking of the average household: rich or very chic people leave the mar ketirg to the cook, who deals in stores which have regular deliveries: while in very wealthy hoIsehOlGs. that aIl- important parsonage. the chef. would not hear of anyone interfering with his prerOgative Of selecting and order ing everything. and this able creator Of sauces, of things savory. steaming or tellied. may even have his own coupe to take him tO the Hslles, the huge market that each day provides the provisions for all of Paris and it's suburbs Servants lcSe 10 go to mar ket. for it is a custom with almost every siOrekeeper to give them one cent on every franc spent. so you will find it next to an impcssibility to make your cook deal where she does not re- reive her sou de franc. and in engas- ing a ssrvant many wilI ask you

HIS STEAK WAS ALL READY
Sarcasm of the Wife Not Wasted on the Delinquent and Imbib-

Sarcasm loses nothing by awaiting the psychological moment for its ut terance, remarks the New York Tri- bune. Also it oftentimes is most fraught with the sharpness of two edged sword when i: is contained in a simple statement of tact A husband gwen to periodica. looks upon the cocktail when il contains cherry, his glance at such times dwelling thereon for two or three successive days with out interruption arose one morning re- gently with head cut of all propor- ton to his hat measure and a throat that felt like limek:ln No explana- tor was needed when he told his wife he was going out fo" moment to get rid of the olive green taste in his mouth; he would be back right away. All she said was, Bring a steak home with you for breakfast" He went to a cocktail dispensary and got his brace. As he was going ont he met friend, who told nim he would feel better if he had another. He did feel better. so much better that he was prevailed on further to improve the state of his physical and mental being by third diving af,er a cherry. He did not see his home for two days. Again. one morning he awoke with iror bands pressing into his head and his tongue cleavins to the roof of his mouth. His wife heard him stirring and went to the door. Your steak is ready" she said.

LAPS HAVE CAUSE FOR JOY
Capture of Port Arthur Restores to Them Prize That Was Wrested
 from Them.

The fall of Port Arthur has brought to Japan a spectacular revenge such as rarely comes in history. The spoliation of decade ago is now, for the time, at least, avenged, says the Kansas City Star of recent date.
 On September IS. 1894, Japan de- stroyed the Chinese fleet in the battle of the Yalu river. On November p it captured Port Arthur. In February 1895, Weihaiwei fell. On April r it signed with China the treaty of Shimo- noseki, by which the Peking govern nnent ceded the lower end of the Liao- tung peninsula. including Port Arthur and agreed to pay an indemnity of $l25.- 000,OO0. Two days later the Russian German and French ministers presented joint note in Tokio declaring the Jap anese occupation of the peninsula to be menace to the Chinese government and to the independence of Korea and to be thus detrimental to the lasting peace of the orient. Therefore, it called for the retrocession of the territory to China for an additional indemnity.
 Russia had powerful fleet in Chinese waters, Japan had an insignificant one. It yielded to superior force, accepted $2O,OOOOOO and agreed to the evacua- tion Immediately afterward Russia leased the harbor from China. thereby giving the lie to every reason advanced for the withdrawal of Japan.
 The rejoicing at Tokio is augmented by the fact that the fortunes of war have enabled Japan to wrest back from Russia the very prize which the czar snatched away ten years ago.

CAR LOADS OF CANDLES. Travelling Salesman Got an Orde, That Fairly Took His Breath
 Away.

"Talk about how the wild and un- conquerable west does business" says Chicago drummer, according to the Post ''I was selling Corliss engines. machinery and other things in the Black Hills some time ago, and came into the beautiful Lead and Deadwood region.
 While there I met a travelling sales man from Omaha or some other point and he said to me:
 Do you understand the west?
 T replied that thought did.
 Well. I don't be said. I've just lost my breath. I went up to Lead and had some candles to sell. I called on Grier, of the Homestake mine, and told him had candles-plenty of. em.
 "'"Got samples?" he asked shortly. said had not, but that could get them quick
 Bring 'em along" he snorted.
 "1 wired the house for samples and patted myself on the back thinking I would get an order for 10000 or possi- ply 12000-the biggest order I ever ex- pected to get in the mountain country.
 My samples came and they were tip-top. took them up to Grier and he gave 'em a close inspection.
 ""Pretty good lot" he finally sniffed. Send me four carloads"
 "I looked at him to see if he was joking. but he wasn't. He never batted an eye. was so staggered walked all the way back to Deadwood trying to get my breath. sent the order in and the house filled 1t. filled the greatest single order it ever had; but l changed my mind then and there as to how the west buys, It gets there with all feet"
