Kitchens In the Tropics,

The kitchens of tropical countries,
such as are to be found in our Spanish
American lands, are like cells from the
thickness Of the stone walls-often two
or three feet deep-and the projecting.
omnipresent veranda, which gives
grateful shade and which looks out on
court. The cell resemblance is en-.
HANGED by the iron bars at the windows
and the heavy double doors, which look
as if they could resist a siege. The
walls are whitewashed, and the floors
are of tiles. The dining room is often
separated from this room by long
staircase. Outside the kitchen in the
court will stand table and closets to
supplement the scant furniture Of the
small, hot apartment with furnace
like fire.

Story of One Case Where 1t Was Due
and Was Not Given.
It is a brave man who can apologize.
It is one of the highest attributes of a
gentleman. never yet knew anybody
who lost money by an apology. know
many men who made some. / know
man in the city of London who spoke
harShly to his confidential clerk. He
accused him of having miSlaid or lost
certain long and important letter. The
clerk said very politely he had never
seen such a document The merchant
said, Don't be fool in talking such
nonsense" The clerk gave in his res.
ignatiOn. 1t was the duty of this clerk
to call at his employers house in the
evening after dinner to take to the Of
flee next morning such letters as would
require attention. There he found the
missing letter. The merchant had plac-
ed it, with few others, in his over
coat pocket to read carefully at home
in the evening. He said: II did not
know had done that. You must wiz
draw your resignation. will increase
your salary" But never a word of
manly apology. The incident left its
sting behind. The confidence and trust
the clerk had in his employer were lost
So, year later, when this confidential
clerk came into a big sum Of money he
refused the partnership that was offer
ed him; he joined an opposition firm,
and the profits Of this merchant have
fallen in. four years from $4,000 a
year tosf3. 900. He lost that, and he has
gained premature old age and much
mental anxiety. This is a true story.

The sentry on duty one day at the

years ago was asked the time by a

happened to be wearing a dainty

The indignant young lady fled to re-

who promptly sent a letter of complaint
to the colonel of the sentry's regiment.
Inc colonel regretted the occurrence
and referred the lady, half in jest and
half in earnest, to the commander in
