q got up about o'clock yesterday morning, and left my little room on my way to the office" said old Dr. Cur mudgeon q dropped into barber shop and the man who shaved me got 10 cents for himself. The boy who brush ed me off got cents. At breakfast I fast I handed the waiter 10 cents-and he seemed to be hurt. Along about noon I went out for lunch, and on the way sat down in a very pretty little cafe for a drink, and the walter got 10 cents. In the restaurant it also cost me 10 cents for the waiter who brought me my lunch.
 Just before dinner I dropped into an- other of my favorite cafes for Q few minutes. There the waiter who brought me 15 cents worth of whiskey received 10 cents for himself. Now, at one of the Broadway restaurants up town, where I go for dinner, sat down, and as I finished left 25 cents on the table for the waiter. Just before going to bed had drink and club sandwich, and for handing them to me the walter got 10 cents.
 That night I had Welsh rabbit found out that I had been blaohmailed out 90 cents during the day. I fig ured out that this meant $27 every month or $32S.5O per year of $S,2S5 in the past 10 years.
 Say! If I had saved that much ir the past ten years I would spend my vacation in Paris instead of Patchogue New York Globe.

Great Number Before Committee Last
 Night.
 A public hearing was given on a large number of petitions before the commits tee on streets in city hall last evening.
 Frederick G. Hotchkiss asked permis- sion to build cellar doorway in the sidewalk at 196 State street, and A. D. Hoffman asked to be allowed to put in doorway on Dixwell avenue, near Webster street The petition of Jere- miah J. Sullivan for sidewalk and curb on Willow street, between Nicoll and Mechanic streets encountered vo- ciferous opposition from Mrs. Mary F.. Humiston. She stated that it would be hardship for her to pay the expenses that the improvements would cause. When asked by Chairman Smith of the committee as to how much property she owned she replied that she owned several houses and there were no mort gages on them, as she did not do busi- ness that way.
 Several appeared in support of the pe- tition of Mrs. J. A. Pallman, who asked for a crushed stone pavement on Car lisle street, between Liberty and How ard avenue. Thomas Hutchinson stated that the street was in very bad con- dition and that water does not run off after rain. Fritz Simons waxed elo- qUent in his portrayal of conditions and told of an accident to one of Fresenius' teams on Wednesday, which he attrib- uted directly to the bad condition of the street. Alderman Burke said Car lisle street was one of the worst in the city.
 Mrs. L. Jacobs and Miss Jacobs ap- peared in opposition to the petition of Nathan Golden for sidewalk and curb on Scranton street. They defined MT, Golden's petition as piece of spite work because the walk that he asked for is on the opposite side of the street from his own property. Mr, Golden was not present.
 Several opposed the petition for a cobblestone gutter in Willow street, be- tween Foster and Orange streets. No one appeared in favor,
 August H. Rode asked for survey and layout of Easton street, between Quinnipiac avenue and the city limits. He Is so uncertain about the boundar- ies of his property that he cannot sell any of 1t or make Improvements.

HOW TO CARE FOR YOUR
 FLOWERS.

Look well to the chrysanthemums, whether growing in beds or pots, as this Is a. critical period for them. Give them their last pinching g-back this month, as they will begin to bud by the first of September. See that they are well staked, for a sudden wind-storm would work sad havoc among top-heavy plants of their brittleness. Be con- stantly Oh the lookout for the black beetle. He Is likely to come at any time. If he puts in an appearance use the Ivory soap infusion mentioned last month. and use thoroughly until he concludes to take his departure, as he soon will, if you go in for heroic treat ment. If your plants are growing in the garden, get ready for potting them early next month. Prepare your com post, get your pots together and fix up some kind of a shelter to put them under for a week or ten days after pot ting them.
 Roses grown in pots will need re-potting now, in order to get them growing vigorously for winter. Use a rather heavy soil, as these plants like to feel firm about their roots, not too large pots. and see that drainage is as good as it can be made.-Efben E. Rex ford in Making the Country Home" in The Outing Magazine for August.

SHE ENJOYED MARYRpoM.


 The scene was laid in an elevated train, the principal actress was shop girl who with friend boarded the car and sat down in one of the cross seats with her back to the motor, the seats opposite her being already occupied.
 As soon as she was seated she began to bemoan her fate in a tone loud enough to carry some distance.
 Oh, I'm just surely going to be sick I can't ride backwards"
 Why will it make any difference for such short distance?"
 "Oh, yes, I never can stand 1t. Why I can't ride backward in a carriage
 The man back of her was evidently moved by her woe and yet he did not see how he could offer to change seats with her as that would simply make him the companion of her friend and she might not understand his motive. He'sat still moment and then solved the problem, He rose and sought a seat in another part of the car, saying nothing to the girl, but leaving her free to take his seat.
 As he sat down he felt that he had played the part of gentleman in re- lieving feminine distress.
 But did the young woman take the seat vacated? o, dear no. The diffi- culty of riding backward was an in- teresting pose with her. She had stated her case, had received sympathy from her friend and had now forgotten all about her feelings and was talking of something else and the seat remained vacant until the end of the tourney Philadelphia Press.
