THE LAKE SKIPPER.
How He Taught q Salt Water Vet
eran to Hustle.

How He Taught a Salt Water Vet
cram to Hustle.
There was a salt water captain who,
for reasons of his own, accepted a
berth as first mate in a big passenger
steamer on the great lakes. He was a
capable seafaring man, but he did not
know what hustle" meant until he
went aboard at Buffalo. The lake skip
per to whom he reported for duty re-
marked In the most casual manner:
"Just give her a coat Of paint this
morning, and, If the sun stays hot and
she dries in good shape, give her a Sec
ond coat this afternoon"
The salt water mate staggered In his
tracks and made amazed protest. This
was 5000 ton vessel, and giving her
two coats of paint was several days
work by his reckoning. The lake skip
per was a person Of discernment,
wherefore he had pity on his new mate
and forbore to deal harsbly with him,
explaining with tolerant grin:
"All right. 1 suppose you'll have to
learn to move lively after snoozing
around salt water all your life. You
just pass that order along to the bos'n
and tell him it's got to be done, and
then you sit up and take notice."
The bos'n took the order calmly, as If
it were in the days work, and by night
fall the big steamer was spick and
span with two coats Of paint from her
water line to her guard rail. The sailor
from deep water had learned his first
lesson in the ways of the great lakes
during the navigation season, when the
hard driven shipping must be forced to
do twelve months work in half year.

THE PARIS CLUBS.
Election to the Most Exclusive Ones
Is Serious Business.

Election to the Most Exclusive Ones
Is a Serious Business.
Election to the exclusive clubs of
Paris is a very serious business. The
proposer and seconder must not only
know all about their candidates, but
be able to bear witness to their ante
cedents and even to their forefathers.
They must write to all their friends
and ask them to support their candi-
dates. When the election takes place,
they must not only be In the room, but
approach each member individually as
he comes up to the ballot box and ask
him for his support.
When the member has been elected,
he arrives the first day as kind OF
stranger and with his hat In hand He
is then formally introduced by one of
his proposers to each member sepa-
rately who happens to be In the room
at the time. On the second occasion
he has ceased to be q stranger and may
leave his hat in the hall, but he is still
expected to go round the room with
one of his proposers and be formally
introduced. This lasts for a week, by
which time he is assumed to know all
his colleagues, though a foreigner who
Is extra punctilious and insists on be-
ing introduced to every member Of the
club gains considerably in popularity.

Light and coIora.

1t is now the general conclusion of
scientists that light is simply the re-
suit Of vibrations, or waves, which oc-
cur In a hypothetical substance known
as the ether, a substance supposed to
permeate all space and all objects and
to be coextensive with the universe
According to this theory, when the
ether Is caused to vibrate at certain
rate 1t gives rise to the sensation Of
light In proportion to the rate of vibra-
ton, or, In other words, the wave
length. In this way the various colors
are produced, red having the longest
wave length and violet the shortest
wave length of any of the colors-that
Is, there are more waves or vibrations
In a given time In the case Of violet
than in the case of red light. Briefly.
In relation to this peculiar phenomenon,
the theory Is that colored bodies owe
their color to the fact that they exert
q selective action on the waves or rays
Of light which fall upon them, allowing
some to pass on and so give the effect
of color, while others are absorbed or

Suppose that prior patent is in
fringed and no way is seen to avoid
infringement by changing the product
or the process or the machine SO as
not to embody the principle of pat
ented invention. The simplest way, of
course, would be to buy the patent If
the patent cannot be bought, but
fraction of the patent can be obtained.
no matter how small fraction-say
one-tenth of the entire right in the pat
ent-the owner of the one-tenth would
be just as we'll off as the owner of the
nine-tenths. The courts have held that
a patent is not like the capital stock
of a corporation and that the owner of
more than one-half of the title to the
patent has no claim upon the owner Of
less than one-half. Each is at liberty
to do with his portion what he pleases
and cannot be made to account to the
other. The owner Of one-tenth may
make ten times as much out of the pat
ent as the owner of nine enths, be-
cause of his greater business ability
or greater capital or for other similar
reasons. and it would not be equitable
to make him turn over nine-tenths of
his profits to the other owner.-Edwin
