In the bigger hotels or restaurants
they hand you the chopsticks done up

idea of convincing you that they never
have been used before, which is not
always SO.
In the cheaper restaurants they

STILL BEARS FINE FRUIT.
Grapevine Is Prolific, Though a Cen.
fury and Half Old.

Although it has been bearing lucious
fruit for the soveregns of England
for nearly $50 years, the great grape
vine near Cumberland lodge, Windsor,
is still putting forth fresh shoots, and
looks in better condition at the pres
ent time than it has done for many
years, says a London report. Some
of the punches this year weigh as
much as four or five pounds each, and
the marked Improvement in the
strength of the vine is probably due
to the fact that new glass house,
giving more room and light. has been
erected over it by the kings special
instructions. About 900 punches of
black Hamburg grapes are now hang
ing from the roof. but in one year,
during the reign of the late Queen
Victoria, 1000 punches were reared.
King Edward however, considered this
too many, and the number has since
never exceeded 1000.

FEW KNOW WHAT THEY WANT.
Melancholy Man Thinks He Has Made
Great Discovery.

.
II think" announced the melancholy
man, that have discovered the Sc
cret of much unhappiness in this
world. 1t is that large numbers of
people are constitutionally incapable
of knowing what they want to do
1T follows, he went on with a sigh,
that the things which they are doing
are, very likely, those which do not
appeal to them. They can stop them,
of course, but what assurance have
they that they will be any better off
the next time?
1t is only by process of gradual
very Observation-Disclosures that they
can hope TO arrive at anything passa-
bly, satisfactory. and even when this
end is attained it is more by luck than
by design. The person who really is
TO be congratulated is the man or
woman absolutely sure of what he or
she wants and who goes after it with
every bit OF energy that can be sum-
mOned up.
Such persons may not succeed in
their aims the melancholy man con-
cluded, but if they are disappointed
in one set of ambitions they are apt
TO take up with another. What a pity
it is that their enthusiasm and conf
jence are not contagious

Coed Partisan Charity,

At certain places about the most
crowded quarters of Paris one may
notice at meal times, scores of poorly
clad women, with infants in their
arms, entering what appear to be
small eating houses. They are eating
places, and they are maintained by
public charity expressly for INDECENT
mothers.
Seven such places are scattered
through the poorer sections of the
city. Last year they furnished 81.
600 meals to mothers who otherwise
would doubtless have Jared sadly for
nutritious food for themselves and
their offspring.
Nine. Henry Coullet led the move
ment which resulted in the establish
ment Of these free eating houses. She
enlisted the sympathy and aid of a cir
Gle of friends, and, as sympathy ex-
tended, aid came pouring in. Gener-
Gus merchants equipped the dining.
rooms and kitchens.

Newspaper advertising is recog-

adhered to in the future. This
decision was reached after one
years investigation of results OBJ
taiped from various forms of adj
vettising.
A committee was appointed by
the Merchants League who kept
actual figures on the business done
by the merchants and traced to va
rious forms of advertisipg4 The

newspapers in their schemes and
taking a per cent. of the profits
for their share in the work, spend

who advertised. The Newcastle
Merchants League recommend
that their merchants use only the

regularly either daily, SUNDAY or

New York, 10000; Paris, 200; Der

To Safeguard Life Insurance.

An important meeting was held
in New York by the Insurance
Commissioners of eleven States. in
Guiding Kentucky, for confer
ence on the financial situation as
affecting life insurance. The oc,,
casion of the meeting was the
great shrinkage in the market
value of the securities held by the
insurance companies. which if re-
porte |. in their annual reports at
the close of the year at their pres
ent reduced figures. would in many
cases indicate such approach TO in
solvency as might lead to wide
spread panic and loss to both
stockholders and policy holders.
After full consideration of the sub
lect the meeting unanimousI Se1c-
cided to allow companies in their
jurisdiction to give, in their forth
coming reports, the values of the
securities held by them at the fig
ures in their statements of a year
ago or at an average of the past
two years, inste I'd of at the market
prices at which they may stand on
December Dist of this year.
In taking the responsibility for
such action it is to be inferred,
from the high character and expe-
rience of those who composed the
meeting, that they were actiIe1q

ers as well as the insurance COM
