FAIR PLAY.
Plea That Is Respected by Almost
All Classes of Men.

A Plea That Is Respected by Almost
All Classes of Men.
There is an appeal to which nearly
all classes Of men give heed-let us
have fair play. You may address q
schoolful of mischievous boys on the
beauties OF goodness, on the evils Of
cruelty or harshness to their fellows,
and they will laugh at you. Exhorta-
tions to avoid any abstract evil or
wrong and appeals to follow any alb
stract virtue will seem hazy to almost
any collection Of ordinary, healthy and
lusty young boys, but If their sense of
fair play be addressed there is a ready
response.
Go among a crowd Of wharflngers or
longshoremen or the toughest and most
reckless sailors, who have neither
home nor principles Of any Sort and
talk to them Of the things of the head
or OF the heart, and they will think
that you are harmless but quite fu-
tile specimen from crankdom. Try to
awaken In them horror of the brutal
ity of their usual life. speak in moving
terms of the force and beauty of kind
ness or of virtue or Of any attribute
or polite and civilized society and
way Of life, and you will be soliciting
the wind, talking to statue, shouting
In the desert But in the most uncouth
assemblage and In the vilest haunt in
the English speaking world mention
fair play and found your argument
and your plea on that basis, and the
erect Is instant and eloquent-Phila-

One day when the restaurant was do
Ing heavy business almost everybody
seemed to want corned beef hash.
"Corned beef hash for Senator Hanna

THE TINY SClARA.
A Procession OF Worms Seen In Hun.
gary and Norway.

gary and Norway.
In some of the Hungarian forests
and In the pine woods of Norway there
exists a tiny, wormlke insect called
the sciara, of the genus tipula. Dur
Ing the month Of July or early in Au-
gust they gather together In large
hunters. preparatory to migrating In
search OF food or for change of con-
dition. When setting out on this jour-
ney they stick themselves together by
means of some glutinous matter and
form huge serpent-lke mass, often
reaching length of between forty and
fifty feet and several inches In thick
ness. AS the sclara Is only on an av-
erage about three thlrty-seconds Of an
inch In length, with no appreciable
breadth whatever, the number required
to compose a continuous line Of the
size above mentioned Is almost lncal-
culable. Their pace is, of course, very
slow, and upon meeting an obstacle
such as stick or stone, they will
either wrlthe over or around it, some-
times breaking into two bodies for this
purpose.
M. Guerln-Meneville, celebrated
French naturalist, said that II the rear
portion of this wonderful snakelike
procession be brought into contact with
the front part and a sort of circle
formed the insects will keep moving
round In that circle for hours without
apparently noticing that they are get
ting no "forrader'' on their journey. II
the procession be broken In two, the
portions will reunite in a short time.
The Norwegian peasants, when they
meet one Of these trains, will lay some
article of their clothing, such as a belt
or handkerchief, on the ground In front
of 1t. II the procession passes over it
1t is regarded as a good sign, but IL it
makes way round the reverse is be-
lieved.

Curfosities of Coffee.

Coffee, as experts are aware, has a
very extraordinary property. 1t Is one
of the most absorbent matters in eX-
istence. Coffee beans placed in a damp
room swell and absorb moisture till
they nearly double their weight. Here
is the chance of the dishonest grocer.
Not content with the amount of profit
made upon coffee, he places pals Of
water in a room with piles Of uncover
ed coffee beans, and by swelling the
coffee adds something like 80 per cent
to his profits. The flavor is ruined, but
that does not matter to him. So abb
sorbent is coffee, not only of moisture,
but of gases and flavOrs, that shippers
Of Brazilian coffee always stipulate
that the sacks Of fresh Rio beans shall
never be carried on q steamer which
has raw hides as any part of her cargo.
These will faint the coffee more surely,
than anything else and render it unfit
for use. The useful side of this quality
of coffee is that in Il sickroom a hand
full or two of fresh roasted and ground
beans act as an excellent purifier and
