Not Uo to His Name.

George Peabody the philanthrop.st, and John Bright often went to Ireland together to fish. One day they went 2 couple of miles up the Shannon be. tween Casueconnell and Killaloe They had engaged the services of two boatmen, and as Bright and Peabol. were keen anglers they made long day of 1t. On returning in the evening Bright. noticing policeman on the river bank. asked what sum the boat. men were entitled to for their time The constable said anything fror. seven and sixpence to 10 shillings Bright turned to his companion, say. ag: "1 have no change, Peabody
 lave you three half crowns?' The
 Millionaire produced the coins and
 avs them to one of the boatmen. whc hid, And Is that all we're givin' mo :'' That Is all," replied Peabody. Well. that bates all 1 iver heard" observed the boatman, adding, as he scratched his head: An they call ye Paybody Faith, should call ye Paynobody!"- London Standard.

The Onion Dodge.

"IncreGibls as it may seem," said .nt detective, "there are many shoplitters who steal by the agency of the onion These men, before setting out upon their contemplated crimes, eat of raw onions abundantly Then they stroll Into the silyersmith's or the haberdash CTS or the jewellers that they propose to rob.
 Show me those large solitaires SUI rounded with pigeon blood rubies. please says the jewel thief.
 1.-The clerk brings forth the tray of gems and, bending over 1t, the thief sighs with admirat ton. His face close to the clerks. he sighs again. And the clerks nostrils quiver, and he turns away his head. The inspection of the diamonds continues for some minutes, Throughout it the thief keeps breath ing hard, the clerk keeps turning his head away, and hence 1t is no wonder, at the days end, that a couple of costly rings are missing" York Press.

AaFight In the Air.

W. E. Webb. the author of Buffalo Land," tells this cat story:
 The chicken hawk of the west is . savage and dangerous enemy, but once one of these air pirates got worsted. l was sitting in front of the doctors Of Ice when hawk shot down with won derful rapidity of wing-so fast that it's shadow seemed hardly to reach the earth before Its body. It bounced upon the doctors favorite kitten, which lay asleep on the grass, and made off with 1t. At an elevation of about fifty feet puss recovered from its surprise and went to work for liberty. Its feline mind was exercised to astonishment and wrath. Twisting like weasel, Its claws came uppermost. and to my straining gaze sight presented itself much like a feather bed being ripped open in midair. The amazed hawk received new light on the subject of prey, let go and made off like badly plucked goose, but the cat came safely to earth-on it's feet.

Imitation of Ebony.

There are two processes. says th Carriage Monthly in use in the imita ton of ebony. Take fine grained piece of wood, use French black pol ish, made black with fine coloring mat ter, or good air drying black varnis! may be applied. This. however givc> only superficial coloring and whe the edges wear off the light coloret wood shows. The other method is t. wash three or four times any denst wood with boiling connection of log wood, allowing it to dry between eaci application. Then wash with solu tion of acetate of iron. which is made by dissolving iron filings in vinegar This stain is very black and penetrates into the wood so that ordinary wear and chipping will not show the original color

Yho oei0in ef . Great laveotje0.

On one of the daily trips of young Westinghouse from Schenectady to the foundry at Troy his train was held up by bad wreck. Two freights hau come together in q head-on collision on piece of straight track. The engi- necrs had seen the danger plainly. hu, by the time the hand brakes were brought into play it was too late. The young man allowed these facts to sink Into his mind Then he said to one Of the train hands:
 eff the engineers had been able 10 control their trains from the cabs. the wreck could have been prevented 'ouldn't it."
 Control 'em how?"
 Brake them"
 "Ies. They had lots of tiMe."
 That was enough. The air brake was onceived Amid the piled up wreck age the thing that was to make the name of Westinghouse familiar to ev- cry schoolboy the world over was call ed into being. It did not come in its perfected form, but the idea itself had germinated.-Paul Latzke in Every. body's.

Some Wives Are Different,

"Most men," said the man of expert once, think 1t must be awfully nice to have a wife who takes things as cool N as Dave Potter's wife takes them. but others, more discriminl ting, prefer . good honest row to her style of quiet cynicism. The way she lehaved the other day when she found letter in Dave's pocket from girl b Brooklyn 1s an example of her methd.
 "'1 don't see,' wrote thi, girl, how on earth I can ever live witout you
 "Dave's wife read that alsh and 6 lot more Just like 1t withoutever turn hg . hair.

Chop 8uey Best Of All,


 "1 have tried them all in their na. tive haunts, and like them," said the t1aveler, according to the Baltimors oun,
 'Tried what4'' asked the hystander. "Railroads?"
 ''No; national dishes," answered the traveller. "The hot tamale of the Mex ican, the goulash of the Hungarian, the chop susy of the Chink, arc all knowp tp me and many others.
 "The best of them all Is chop ouey The hot tamale Is too hot and has very little nourishment to 1t, and goulash Is too heavy. It tastes pretty good, but 1t 1s not food to recommend to a man with weak stomach. Chop suey, how ever, is appetizing, easily digested and very nourishing. It Is the great contri button of the orient to the occident in my opinion. It Is made of rice, sprout- cd beans, celery and chickens blood, all mixed together in the for1n of soup and nicely seasoned"
