WHEN THERE WAS TROUBLE.
just What Happened Between the Fat
Man and the Conductor.

The stout man on the back plat
form declined to agree with the con-
ductor. The conductor thought he
hadn't paid his fare. The stout man
was of the contrary opinion.
They exchanged harsh words over
the matter.
Il gave you a nickel when l got
aboard" said the stout man.
Il haven't taken in a nickel on this
trip" said the conductor.
The stout man grew very red. His
hair seemed to bristle.
That's just enough of this" he
growled. 81 don't want to have any
trouble with you. l had trouble with
a conductor once. I'd hate to tell you
what happened"
The conductor drew back a little
and made no further attempt to col
lect the stout mans fare.
But when the stout man was about
to alight from the car the conductors
curiosity was too much for him.
Say" he asked, what happened
when you had that trouble with the
other CONDUCTOR"
The stout man looked back.
Il was in the hospital six weeks
he mildly answered.

Value of Trade Secrets.

The value of trade secrets as a bust
ness asset was emphasized recently
by a decision of the court or errors
and appeals of New Jersey, compelling
the American Can company to reim-
burse an eastern concern for having
used one of the latter's secret proc
esses in manufacturing tin. One of
the employees of the eastern concern,
which is known as the Vulcan Detin-
ming company, left his position and
some time later secured a place with
the American Can company. To the
officers of that company he then told
Of the methods that were. used by the
rival firm, and these at once were

There was a suit, and now, after sew

Can company has been found to have
no right to make use of the secrets
of its competitor.

WIT OF WILLIAM NJ. EVARTs,
Few Men More Ready Than Was the
Great New York Lawyer.

William Evarts graced the ~headship
OF the bar before lawyering was so
much of a trade as it is, and when
lawyers had time for accomplishments,
says Harper's Weekly. He was a
scholar, but no more of a Grecian than
he should have been. Yale men used
to think that Theodore Woolsey knew
more Greek than anybody else, and
Mr.. Evarts himself was so well per-
suaded of this that he once said at
a dinner that was given to Woolsey,
that he and Woolsey knew more
Greek than any other two men in the
country"
Il saw a fine photograph of you.
Mr.. Evarts, on my way down town
this morning. You've a beautiful head.
Mr.. Evarts."
I'm glad you think so well of 1t"
said Evarts, you know I stand on my
head"
Here is one for the Liberal Arts
club. One day a man came out of
the Players" next door to the Tilden
house, now occupied by the Art club.
and met Mr.. Evarts, There was prob
ably eve a house constructed that
was, and is, so MORALLY ugly as that
which Samuel J.. Tilden built in
Gramercy park. In order that ingoers
might escape quickly from the sight
of the front of it there were two front
doorways. "Of what school of archi
lecture is the Tilden house, Mr. Ev
arts?' said the Player"
Tudor" said Mr.. Evarts.
Fiat justitia, ruat, prandium," he
once prescribed as a floral motto fol
a dinner of the Bar association.
There have been other lawyers, 9th
er secretaries of state and Other
%punsters, but as he himself might say

A Tip to Smokers.

DO you want to know how to smoke
and smoke, and yet keep the room
clear of all the fumes and odors of
tobacco? How to smoke in the din
ing-room, the drawing-room, your
wife's bedroom, without leaving a sin
gle tobacco smell in the air? Well,
Ill tell you"
Here the salesman took down a
small ring of platinum.
"All you have to do" he said, lis
to set this ring over a lamp and let it
get red-hot. Red-hot, it will consume
the smoke of a dozen cigars, keeping
the air quite clear and sweet. With
one of these rings in use, there is no
ground for f%orbidding a man to smoke
anywhere.
1T has long been known that plat.

STRANGE ANTIQUITY OF EGYPT.
Country Has Remained Unchanged
Through Centuries.

Many tourists who have crossed
the Mediterranean to Alexandria and
have made the three hour journey
thence by express to Cairo, establish
themselves in one of the fashionable
hotels, do a little shopping in the ma
tive quarter, see a mosque or two, a
native wedding, ride a camel the quar-
ter mile distance from the Mena house
to the sphinx, and perhaps go as far
as to visit Saqqara-a days excursion
from Cairo-then return homeward
f%ancying and also declaring that they
have seer Egypt.
So they have, in a sense; but Cairo
is no more representative of Egypt as
a country than New York is of the en-
tire United States.
To see upper Egypt, with its fell
laheen life, it's mud cities, and its
quaint scenery, is like turning the
leaves of al old history and studying
the e%ngravings, for neither the coun-
try nor the people has changed to any
appreciable degree since the days OF
Mohammed, unless it be in the &C
complishment in which all seem to be
equally well trained-that of begging
backsheesh. Egypt is spoken of as
becoming modernized, but there is no
indication of anything more modern
than 1000 years ago between Cairo
and Luxor-or, nor properly, the lit
tie English city of Kom Ombo, beyond
Luxor, where an English company has
been formed and agricultural expert
ments are being carried forward

THE DAY OF THE FARMER.
Useful TlIler Of the Soil Has Come to
His Own.

The farmer who is not an amateur
Is a really increasing factor in to-day's
life. In fact farming is rapidly be-
coming one of the professions. We
have our agricultural schools just as
we have our law schools.
It is getting to be a business as
well. Farmers have their trusts, like
other manufacturers.
It is a far cry from the New Eng
land farmer, trying to arrange an ex-
ploded granite quarry into a stone wall
that he may have room in which to
plant his crop, and that master Of cap
ital, science and black earth ten feet
deep who plows with a traction engine
and reaps with a ten-horse team. And
between these two types of farmers
the drift is steadily toward the lat
ter.
The comic paper does not laugh at
the granger as frequently as 1t
used to laugh. 1t wants his subscrip-
ton.
The capitalist does not ~foreclose
mortgages on the prairie farm now.
He borrows money of it's owner.
And. what is vastly more important,
the entire country looks with a respect
bordering upon apprehension on this
new type of American who has decid-
ed views on railroads, trusts, and. in
fact, on every subject from the green
bug" to the lecturer at his chautau-
qua. This rise of the farmer into
national significance is welcome in
view Of the inundation of great cities
by immigrants who have significance
only en- masse.
The farm is the nursery of individ,
ualism. If you are a cliff dweller in
the city send your boy there, and let
him see what it means to create
wealth with the help of nature. rather
than with the ticker. You will help
make him a better American.-The

Roo.Hoo Fever.

In the intense heat the young cap
tain smiled.
This recalls to my mind" he said.
'boo-hoo fever"
"Boo-hoo fever? What is that?"
1T is a fever brought on by the
heat among our soldiers in the Philip
pines. A mild fever, it becomes high
and active only when the weather
grows unusually hot. Then 1t throws
our young men into a strange delir-
rum. They cry and weep. They
boo-hoo.
IF you should go into one Of our
hospital wards in the Philippines on
a very hot day, the loud walls of
the young fever patients would soon
show you the origin of boo-hoo fever's
funny name"
