The Way He Tried to Sell . valise to
. Foreigner.
At the annual fair in Mini Novgorod
I stepped with a German-Russian
friend into a saddlery, where he wish
ed to purchase a valise. He picked
out one for which the Tartar mer-
chant named a price that was evident
~ much In excess Of its real value. My
friend was making the usual feint un-
der such circumstances Of leaving the
store when he noticed that the dealer,
with a rapid movement, stuck Il paper
in the outside pocket Of his valise. Not
being a %greenhorn in Russia, he knew
Immediately what the Tartar was up
to.
"But, BARN." said the latter, calling
him back, "come. Look at the leather
and the lining, silk all through. Please
examine it carefully" He handed the
valise again to my friend and turned
back to his stock, apparently looking
for other satchels to show. With a sly
wink my friend extracted a ten ruble
note from the outer pocket of the va
lise and hid it in his hand. Then he
said: Don't trouble yourself any long
er. This valise seems to be what you
say it is, and l will take it,"
The Tartar grinned broadly as he
turned around, satisfied that his little
trick had succeeded. Then while my
friend pretended to count out the pur-
chase price he took hold once more Of
the valise in order accidentally to dis
cover the bank note in it.. l shall new
err forget Ills eyes, which bulged out of
their sockets, or the petrified' smile on
his face when he found his money
gone. He was so bewildered thatshe
stammered like n drunken man.

son." my friend said to me.in German.
while he kept the triskstsr..fn SUSPENSE

The Korean Lnnxuare.

Korean is a difficult language to
learn. Trifing errors are likely to lead
a foreigner into great embarrassment.
1t was only the smallest mistake that
led an impassioned preacher to warn
his congregation that unless they re-
pented they would be relegated to "a
cellar" the Korean words for cellar
and the neither world being almost
Identical. mike manner the story
of Lazarus, who fell sick, was told to
a Sunday school class with an unau-
thorized ending. The native form of
expression is entering a Sickness,
and by Il trifling confusion the teacher
was made to declare that Lazarus en-.
tered a bottle.
