One Thousand Men. $1,000.

II 1000 men were TO come In here
and each one eat dollars worth,
would have just 81, 1000" said the man
ager Of one of those restaurants where
each person helps himself ION the
other hand, IL should feed 1000 wO-
nen and allow them to pick out their
own checks might possibly have
$500, but doubt 1t. Every woman Is
a natural born cheat. 1t seems to be
a sixth sense In her makeup to try to
get ahead Of the person who provides
her meals"
The woman to whom these horrify-
ing revelations had been made walked
away trying to evolve some plan for
emancipating her sex from the web
Of dishonest propensities in which they
had become enmeshed. Outside the
restaurant she met a man friend.
1--WE just been down there for lunch
con-" he said. GLORIOUS place; cheap
too. If fellow knows his business it
is dead easy to get fifty cent meal
for a quarter. They never watch the
men, but l tell you they keep a close
eye on you women"
The woman with an ambition to re-
form her sex looked back into the
restaurant.
zone thousand men, $1,000" she
said, and smiled wickedly.-New York

How a Flea Jumps.

1t is said that a flea leaps 200 times
It's height, and, while it usually does
land on its feet, it often falls, especial
" when 1t falls OH perfectly smooth
surface where the claws can get only
slight hold. A flea has six legs,
whose great length and bulk make
them so heavy that they must be a
great help in keeping their owner right
side up when 1t makes one of these
gigantic jumps, and when it lands up
side down or In some other way Its
ability to kick Is so great that not
more than one wriggle is needed to
set things right. A 1ea's wings are
mere scales and of no use; but, small
and worthless as they are, they tell
the entomologlst something about the
proper classification Of the insect. To
the flea itself they have no value.

Gold Is Everywhere.

Gold can most profitably be extract
ed from certain mines where the ore is
rich and not too difficult TO work, but
should these deposits ever peter out
there is no fear that the world would
suffer for lack of a gold supply, for
there are many other sources which
are as yet untouched, but for working
which profitable methods would be de-
vised if need were. Granite, for ex-
ample, contains an appreciate guam
tity of gold, and If it were not under
present conditions too expensive a mat
ter to extract 1t we should find Scot
land and Cornwall rlvallng the Trans
yaal and the Klondlke. The sea also
contains gold in solution, and the man
who invents a cheap method Of get
ting it out will make himself richer
than all the milllonaires that ever
lived. Gold is also constantly falling
all over the surface of the world, blown
to us In minute quantities along with
cosmic dust, which comes from inter-
stellar space.-Black and White.

His Profession.

In the midst of our tea drinking In
the little Partisan restaurant says
Miss Betham- Edwards In an account
Of Home Life In France" a gentle
manly individual wearing q tall hat
and frock coat entered and, after q
short colloquy with the young master,
passed out.
"You would never guess that gentle
mans Grand Marcel said, smiling
as he reseated himself at the tea table
"He looked to me like a rather dis
tinguished customer" l replied. Some
government functionary on half pay
or an owner OF bonds"
Marcel smiled again.
"That well dressed gentleman, then,
supplies us with toothpicks, which his
wife makes at home. He calls once
month and takes our orders. / dare
say he and his wife between them
make from SO TO So week and con-
trive to keep up appearances on that
sum. 1t Is an instance Of what one
calls 'giIded poverty. "

a RundIn Of RIunders.

Don't say that cleanliness is next
to godliness," statement which would
be untrue If It were not unmeaning.
II you must gauge the value Of this
excellent quality quote the original
correctly and say that cleanliness is
next to goodness, meaning thereby
that, where this is lacking, a clean
and well kept person has an attraction
and comeliness only second to actual
beauty.
Never talk Of "the worst coming to
the worst" an impossible occurrence,
since It is already there. The worse
may come to the worst as, alas, 1t Of
ten does, but when the worst6as come
there is no more TO be said.
Please do not speak Of your mutual
friend" If A is a friend Of B and G,
A is not a mutual but common
friend.
But, above all, If you would be
blameless never talk OF common
sense" as though 1t were or could be
an exceptional or rare possession Of a
favored few. Common sense is the
sense common to all, which long may
we all enjoy.

ToothbIacke.

"As we have bootblacks so they've
got toothblacks in the Sunda Islands,"
said a travelling man.
"What IS q tOothblackT
"Don't you knowl A toothblack is
an old woman with pot Of black
paint, a gold leaf book and set OF
vegetable brushes. From hut to hut
she passes, and for a small fee-a yam,
q bunch of bananas, three cocoanuts-
she paints the Sunda islanders teeth
a gIistening black-all but the two
front teeth. These she gilds. And the
Sunda islander thereafter goes about
with q self conscious smile revealing
a truly knock-me-down dental display,
a black and gold symphony. 1t is a
common trick among the semiciyilized
to color the teeth. In Macassar dark
brown Is the popular hue, and In Japan
among the unenlightened classes the
teeth Of wives are always painted
black. In such countries the tooth
black is an institution. She goes from
house to house as full Of gossip as
barber" - New Orleans Times-Demo-
