Pets the Sailors Joy.

Animal pets have ever been a great joy to the average sailor. There is hardly ship ahoat that does not carry one or more such little favorites, to whom the crew are universally kind. More than this, there is frequently de- veloped an attachment between men and animals that is seldom to be seen on shore; and the intelligence display ed by these animals often far exceeds the wonderful stories we sometimes see in print On men-ofwar there is prob ably more consideration shown the crew in this regard than on merchant men; at all events, you will find there many more ships pets. It is by no means uncommon to see upon the same deck a dozen or more well-trained ami mals of various kinds whose natural homes. are separated by thousands of miles.-St. Nicholas.

Enthusiasm in Life.

Enthusiasm in life is the great gen. orator of sunshine. Without living interest in the busy world and that sympathy of feeling which connects us with every other living being, we can not infuse any warmth into our man. ners, or bring others into sympathy with us, says the New Orleans Times. Helen Keller, whose sunshiny soul is as sensitive to impressions as a deli cate flower is to atmosphere, in her "Story of My Life," writes: 1.-The touch of hand may seem an imperd- hence, while that of another is like a benediction. I have met people so empty of joy that when l clasped their frosty finger tips it seemed as if l were shaking hands with northeast storm. Others there are whose fingers have sunbeams in them; their grasp warns my heart"
 It Is as natural for us to be attracted toward sunshihy natures as it is for flowers to turn toward the sun. In spite of life of almost constant illness, Rob- ert Louis Stevenson charmed all who came under his influence by his spon- taneous cheerfulness and absolute freedom from all shadow of bitter. ness or repining, comments Success. He found the keynote of each day in this simple prayer, born of his own inspirations: "The day returns and brings us the petty round of irritating concerns and duties. Help us to play the man; help us to perform them with laughter and kind faces; let cheerfulness abound with industry. Give us help to go blithely on our busi- ness all the day; bring us to our rest ing beds weary and content and un- dishonored and grant us in the end the gift of sleep"

Flashes Figures of Fire.

A cash register appears to be an es- sential piece of apparatus in all mer- Mntile establishments, and the elab- orations and embellishments that have been devised for the greater protec- tion of the purchaser and the seller have made this device the most com plicated mechanism in use by the gen. eral public.
 Not content with the protecting feature provided, one of the largest manufacturers has just secured a new patent which affords still greater protection for both parties to trans action. The distinguishing feature of the new improvement is visible dis play of the amount of the sale at a distance from the cash register. This unique end is attained by the introduc- tion of electric commutators contacts ard electrically lighted universal nu- merals, operated automatically by the manipulation of the register keys. The numerals are formed of block let ters. illuminated with electric lights and so designed that any numeral can be flashed out of the same space by varying the contacts-that is, by ob- scuring certain lines and illumining others.
 Whenever a purchase is registered the amount of the sale is flashed out in large figures on conspicuously To- cated electric sign, so that there does not appear to be the slightest oppor- tunity for false registration without detection. The indicator comprises a rectangular frame with a semiopaque front of frosted or ground glass.

EXTEMPORlZING A CIPHER.

When Wall street first caught the fever for industrial combinations and began the reorganization of every thing in sight, says the Brooklyn Eagle, one of the votaries of high finance found himself in Chicago in extreme need of communicating with his New York office.
 He had almost completed an ar- rangement for the consolidation of sev- eral Western enterprises, but in order to get the final authority he needed from New York, he must explain all he had done by wire to his partners.
 There was no time to write. He had no cipher code. For a long time he tried to think out some way to send the information so that it would be plain to his partners and meaningless to any one else. His secret was a val table one, and once sent over the wire might be sold out to his rivals in Wall street for large sum.
 At last he decided to take the chances in plain English. Accordingly he wrote the message and gave it to his assistant to send.
 Half an hour later, when the assist ant came back, he asked him if he had sent 1t.
 Mot just that way" said the clerk. q rewrote 1t, the first word on a Postal blank, the second on Western Union, and so on. I sent half by each company, and neither half meant any thing. Then I sent a second message by one line, saying, Read both mes- sages together, alternating worlds"
 The scheme was too simple for the high financier to have evolved, but 1t worked perfectly.

Living Armament.

Captain Percival, known on account of his eccentricities as Mad Jack" more than once did some wild thing which brought him into conflict with the naval authorities.
 On one occasion, says biographer, he was sent to Morocco with his frig- ate to bring back cargo of donkeys for the government. It was in the days when the distance between ship at sea and the authorities at Washing ton was greater than it is in these days of telegraph cables, and ship-captain was little monarch aboard his ves- sel. Percival was seaman of the old type, holding in contempt men who sit at desks and give orders.
 To show what he thought of em- plOying warvessel on so mean mis- sion, when he entered New York har- bar he ran in all his guns, and placed the head of a donkey through each porthole. As the vessel sailed in, the sight of double row of jackasses' heads protruding from the places where guns should have been, caused a great sensation. When Washington heard of it, the authorities barely re. trained from giving Mad Jack" . se- were punishment

Comforting.

A few years ago when they were operating cable cars up and down a steep hill in one of the New England cities, middle-aged lady, who had never seen them before, entered car one day that contained only two other people, seating herself as near the con- ductor as possible, and when he hae collected her fare she spo,:e to hini and said:
 "Is this car perfectly safe?"
 T hope so, madam" replied the con- ductor.
 Have you ever had accidents on this awful steep hill?"
 "Well," replied the conductor, "there have only been few small accidents; nothing serious"
 "Where would I go," she then in quired, If this car should get away and go sliding down this steep hill?"
 "Well, madam" said the conductor, it would all depend on how you have lived your past life. e."-Philadelphi Ledger.

Malagasy Etiquette. |.

A French conjurer many years ago during a performance at the court of Madagascar asked the queen through an interpreter if she would taste q glass of wine. On her refusal the con- jurer, with simulated anger, emptied the glass over her, and the contents dropped in the shape of rose into her majesty's lap. The court functional ries were so indignant at this proceed ing that they jumped up from their seats, insisted upon the queen leaving the apartment and charged the per former with high treason. The unfor- tunate man had to be protected by the native troops from the fury of the pop ulace and was compelled to leave the capital before daybreak.

Frenzied Advertising.

In these days of frenzied advertis- ing, it is hard for all of us to tell the real thing, and it naturally follows that the safest way is to pin our faith to those articles and products which are backed and guaranteed by the oldest and most reliable concerns. The Pillsbury Company of Minne- apolis, with word wide reputation for BEST quality, guarantees to you that in buying their ideal breakfast food, "Pillsbury's VITOS-the Meat of the Wheat," you actually purchase product which is free from impuri- ties, and at the same time most economical food. It is truly the white heart of the wheat kernel. ster- ilized, nothing added, nothing taken away; no Aavoring, no cooking, and two pound package will make you twelve pounds of delicious white food. Figure the economy of this. If you are looking for the best, and are willing to accept the statements of the largest and most respected of firms,. whose producst are the yard stick by which all competitors meas ure their lines, you will not hesitate.
 Ask your grocer today for "Pills- bury's VlTOS-the Meat of the Wheat.''
 Put up in two pound air-tight packages. Price 20 cents.

SOME DELusIoNs OF DIET.
Fictitious Names Applied to Much of
 What Is Used at Table.

What Is Used at Table.
 George K. Holmes, chief of division of foreign markets, bureau of statis- tics, of the United States Department of Agriculture, prepared for the year book of the department q treatise on the peculiarities of consumers in their systems of marketing and the delu- sions they allow themselves to be placed under or blunder into them selves. The digest has been considered serviceable for reprinting in pamphlet form under the title of Consumers Fancies."
 The pamphlet points out the mistake people of small means make in al- ways selecting the choice or most ex- pensive cuts of meats, when many of the unsought cheaper parts of the animal are equally or even more nu- tritiOus. It quotes meat trades jour nal on recent prices as follows: Por- terhouse steak, 20 cents; prime rib, 15 cents; sirlons, 12R cents; round, 8 cents; trump, ' cents; neck pieces, about 3 cents; per pound, respectively. It comments in the following strain:
 Although epicureans admit and chemists demonstrate that the neck piece is toothsome and nutritious, it bears the lowest price. In fact, 1t would hardly be considered respecta- ble to ask the butcher for a piece of the neck. Perhaps low order of pro- ficiency in the housewife's cooking in the past gave the neck piece its low place. The story might have been diff ferent had the housewife of former times possessed the French house. wife's ability to utilize meats in the making of attractive and delicious dishes" The point of the argument is that cheap cuts are as good as dear when judiciously selected and properly cooked.
 The pamphlet also treats of the de- fusion that exists in the terms applied to various subsistence commodities by which their sale is influenced Note the following: "The amount of Can. ada lamb sold in the United States is enormous. The word Canada has the same magical effect upon lamb prices that the word Philadelphia has upon spring poultry or that of Long Island on fresh eggs. These Actions seem to sell the product, and the eating pub lie appears to feel satisfied. By tack ing the word Canada on to his product the butcher is enabled to get ? cents more per pound for it, or, if he ad- heres to normal prices his customers think they are getting something un- usual for their money. In certainly 95 per cent of the cases they are get ting plain domestic lamb, and about fifty times out of one hundred are not getting lamb at all, but mere nut ton"
 Many other commodities are set forth under their respective delusive titles with the same unreserved treat ment of the Receptions practiced in re- gard to them.
