few weeks and the sights
of the city are a continuous
cause for wonder with him,
but more wonderful are the
doings of the people He
came from a nook of the neighboring
country where life is primitive to say
the least and where there are any num-
Der of people who have never seen, let
alone tasted a glass Of wine.
Not long ago this chap had occas~
ion to attend small stag party at the
home of a prominent parsonage in the
city and before the evening was over
the host treated his friends to some
rare wine. The young man from the
country emptied his glass with a
couple of gulps and as many grimaces
a second and third glass in the same
way.
How did you enjoy yourself this
evening" asked a friend as they were
walking home.
Very WELL" was the reply, 'sbut I
should not think a man of Mrs
prominence and means would offer his
guests wine which had soured.'
A son of Sweden, faxen haired and
as guileless looking as all his coun-
trymen are wont to be, walked into a
drug store on Kansas avenue the other
day and stood in an aimless sort of a
way in front of the soda fountain.
Would you like some soda? ?' quer-
led a clerk after the Swede had re-
NAMED silent for some time
Il guess I do" was the reply.
What flavor do you care for ?" ask
ed the clerk.
What favors have you?' was the
response.
''Oh, we have most any kind of a
fruit flavor that you may wish for, =
replied the druggist.
Well answered the Swede as he
hesitated and longing look came in
to his eyes. Il guess I'll take goose
berry.
One of Topeka's prominent citizens
and man whose official position is

inveterate smoker and being generous
in way, not a man calls on him who
is not offered a cigar. but all of them
do not get the same kind, not by a long
shot
He always has in his desk three
boxes of cigars, each of a decidedly
different quality. One of them holds
the cigars he enjoys and you may be
sure they are fine ones. A few of his
important friends are treated to these.
Another box holds a fair grade OF
cigars which are passed out to a ma
jority of his callers and the third
contains gars-although such bunch
es of tobacco should not be designated
as cigars-which he hands out gra-
ciously to such of his callers as he
simply has to tolerate through cour-

Talk about peculiar dreams" said
a young fellow TO a number OF friends
who had been telling of the wanderings
of their minds during sleep, i had one
the other night which was surely the
limit. I dreamed that I was old John
D. Rockefeller, and guess 1 had all
his millions in my pocket There was
nothing strange about this part OF the
dream, for asleep or awake am thinks
ing of being a millionaire and I have
all sorts of fun, especially in dreams.
in spending the money. But the Pc
culiar part of this dream was that with
millions in my pockets could not find
satisfactory way Of spending cent.
There I was walking up and down
the streets of New York fairly back
bent with the load of money I was
carrying and not a single thing that I
saw in shops or on the street looked
worth buying. Finally in sort of fit
Of desperation I bought the stock Of
an Italian peanut vender and began
amusing myself by tossing handfuls of
peanuts to the street urchins. I was
just getting warmed up to the fun
when / received a hard blow in the
ribs. Then 1 woke up. There was my
room mate sitting up in bed and rub
bing his left eye.
What dye mean by hitting me IN
the eye" he said and l explained to
him that 1 had been John d. Rookie
feller for short time and must have
hit him in the eye when 1 was throw
ing peanuts to the boys. He accepted
the apology with grunt and peace was
restored"
Get-rich-quick schemes are as thick
and of as many different varieties as
the hairs on a brindle bull pup, but
sooner or later they burst like a bubble
or their promoters are landed behind
Jail bars. But there is a young man
IN Topeka who is fairly coming money
with a game that will run indefinitely
with extra ordinary profits, that is if
his friends and co-Workers keep on
playing it.
This fellow, and he is only a youngs-
ter at that, works in an Office where
from sixty to seventy clerks are en-
ployed. In this Office there seems to be
a perfect mania among the employees
to rattle off almost anything from u
/ lead pencil to a gold watch or a dia>
mond ring. Some weeks ago the young
man in question announced that he
would rattle off a FIVE dollar gold piece
! at twenty-five cents a chance He in
sisted on having thirty chances bought
! Detore the rattle would come off and
i his fellow clerks literally fell over each
/ other IN risking a quarter to win five
dollars. His first rattle, with its profit
I OF 500, was such success that he
/ pulled off four more without anv
/ trouble the same day and he has run
from two to four raff1es of this sort
| every day since he started. His $3.50
/ profit on each rattle is lust about
double what he gets for days work.

Boiled Timber.

A new process has been discovered
for warning against white ants, .le
pests of the tropical regions. These
termites-as they are called-destrOy
the woodwork of the finest buildings
within six months. Their action is
tasidious, inasmuch as the outward
appearance Of the wood does not be-
tray the rottenness within, and tneir
:avages, If not discovered In time,
lead to the total collapse OF buildings.
Sometime ago it was suggested that
experiments should be carried out by
the Powell Wood Process Syndicate,
Ltd, Fleet street, E. c. Specimens
were prepared and sent out to num-
Der of tropical countries. After
somewhat protracted trial, news has
been received from the Madras pres
iiency that the specimens sent there
have successfully resisted the attacks
Of the white ants. The process i'm
proves, toughens, and strengthens the
wood. This is accomplished by boil
ing the timber in saccharine solution,
and afterwards drying it at high

Irrigation.

OF the various papers read at the
adjourned meeting of the British AS
ISOLATION at johannesburg, none is Of
more practical interest than Sir c.
Scott Moncrieff's On "Irrigation.' Only
the man who has seen what has been
done in Italy, in India, in Egypt and
IN California can appreciate the verl-
table romance of agriculture which
the engineer has brought about. In
India the irrigation canal has turned
millions OF acres to fertility and saw
ed tens of thousands of lives which
must have succumbed to famine. In
the Western States of America vast
deserts have been converted into or
chards, and the land which would otl-
erwise be dear at five dollars an acre
has become worth fifty. Much Of the
British triumph in Egypt is summed
up In the word irrigation. English
eng!neers-Sir c. Scott Moncrieff
among them-came from India after
the British occupation and have ever
since been engaged in some Of the
greatest irrigation works in the world
so that Egyptian agriculture has de-
veloped beyond the dreams Of the
most sanguine-London Saturday Re-

The Inventor of Shimose Powder.

DR.. Clan Shimose, the chemist-in-
eentor Of that wonderful explosive,
Ehimose powder, used by the Japan
csc army and navy, was born il the
rery humblest circumstances in the
province of Hiroshima, some forty
seven years ago, when railways and
steamships were practically IN
nown in the island empire. Very ear
" Shimose, determined to win an
Education, made his way to the capt.
tai, borrowed books to study, and,
though often on the verge of star
vation, was graduated from the i'm
Gerial University with the highest
honors. His first invention was a Gu
tious ink, now used in Japan for bank
hotes. The secret of its composition
Is absolute, and courterfeits are in
SANITY detected. Recognizing that
the powder in use in japan was ex-
tremely unsatisfactory, Shimose turn
ed his attention to the invention OF
4 new powder and spent eleven years
in perfecting it, often working entire
days and nights in his laboratory. Shi-
nose is universally recognized to be
superior to the powder used by any
great power.
