American Tourists and Their ways.

English people, as u rule, try to en-
ter Il hotel drawing room or any other
public place as quietly as possible and
endeavor not to interfere With the
other occupants of the room more than
they can help. A party of French or
Germans will never dream of stopping
to consider whether their piercing
voices are deafening their neighbors,
While Americans have Il particularly
maddening habit of reading their cor
respondence aloud in public without
the slightest regard to other people
who are reading or conversing in the
same room. 1t is no doubt part of the
same lack of breeding which leads
them to hold conversations at the top
of their very penetrating voices not
only in public picture galleries, but
also in continental churches, without
paying any attention to the fact that
a solemn service may be going on
within a few yards of them.-London
Modern Society.

Recalling a Mailed Letter.

Many times people would like to re-
call a letter after it has been mailed.
This can be done even If the letter has
reached the postofice Of its destina
ton. At every postoftice there are what
are called withdrawal blanks" On
application they will be furnished, and
when deposit is made to cover the
expense the postmaster will telegraph
to the postmaster at the letters desti-
nation asking that it be promptly re-
turned. The applicant first signs this
agreement ut is hereby agreed that,
If the letter is returned to me, l vii!
protect you from any and all claims
made against you for such return and
will fully indemnify you for any loss
you may sustain by reason of such ac-
ton. And l herewith deposit s. to
cover all expenses incurred and will
deliver to you the envelope of the let
ter returned" In many cases persons
have made remittances to fraudulent
parties or irresponsible firms, not learn
ing their true character until after the
letter had gone, and have succeeded in
recalling them.-Boston Transcript.

A curious Coincidence.

The story Of Il queer coincidence is
told by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. While
travelling upon the continent he visited
a certain mountain inn, which was in
winter, he learned, occupied only by
two men. These men, prisoned in
waste of snow and ice, had for all that
period no communication with the
world below. Here was a situation for
u novelist! Ind the novelist accord
ingly began to let his Imagination play
about the possibilities of tragedy sur
rounding 2e two men on their noun
tain height. But the story was never
written, for, happening to come upon
volume Of Guy de Maupassant, which
was new to Linn, he found therein, un-
der the title of "L'Auberge," the very
story he had meant to write.

The common purslane is one of the

concerned. A single seed of this plant
will produce about twenty seed pods
in season. The average number of
seeds in each of these, by actual count,
is 5000, making 10000 in ALL AS far
as we have been able to learn there is
no instance of similar fruitfulness in
any plant found growing in this coun-
try. A single plant of either the James
