In Modern Egypt.

Douglas Sloden's book on Egypt contains some curious anecdotes. For instance: My doctor was called to see an Egyptian who was in a very low state. What is the matterY he asked. I think it is only depression. l have been a fool and lost a law case. would not backsheesh the other mans lawyer, and he backsheeshed mine Later on when another Egyptian told my friend that he had won law case my friend said, T suppose you back sheeshed the other mans lawyerY The Egyptian gave a beautiful smile and said, How did you know?"
 And again: "I was at Luxor when they were recruiting for the army. If a young man was found to be phys ically fit his relations were plunged in grief. Professional mourners were hired to squat outside the police sta tion where the recruiting took place, yelling and weeping If, on the other hand, he was rejected as undersized or weakling or tainted with Ioatl1- some disease, his relations and friends flew to him rejoicing and kissed him and hung on his neck''

Enolish Auntinu press,

When out hunting everybody should be dressed as a gentleman, and the most detrimental thing to fox hunting is the modern innovation (really gross laziness and an insult to the hunt and the master) of young gentlemen com ing out dressed in rat catching clothes, shooting caps and fancy costumes of their own, and much harm is done.
 There is nothing the farmers dislike so much as this habit, for they never know whether such persons are rough riders or gentlemen or people from the towns or who they are galloping over their land and over their fences.
 There is but one proper and leg1ti- mate fox hunting dress for gentlemen, and that is red and black coat, white brooches, top boots and high hat, and certainly thirty years ago nobody would have dared to come out dressed otherwise. Where the hounds belong to the country, landowners are en- titled to wear the hunt button, but do not think that this entities the sub scribers to wear it unless they are in- vited to do so by the master or by the committee, as the case may be.-'"Pne Highest Authority" in Baily's Maga- zine. >.--~----.- -------- .---.-.-3

A CUSTOM HOUSE TALE.

The American Who Landed In Ger.
 many With Box of Candy.
 Germany Is jealous of the foreign candy maker and exacts a rigorous toll upon anything in the shape of confec- tionery that comes across its borders. Ignorant of this. one of Uncle Sam's sons disembarked from liner at a Ger man port carrying in his hand a five pound box of candy bearing a New York trademark. At sight of the box the Teutonic customs officials exhibited marked activity and prepared to seize upon 1t.
 "Not for mine," said the American ''I won't give up a sou. I'd rather eat the stuff here and now" He opened the box and commenced to dispose of its contents without delay. Everybody in sight was offered handful. Nobody declined except the customs officer, who said blandly that he had not sweet tooth. The traveller himself ate many pieces. It was not long before the last bit had been eaten.
 As soon as the box was empty the official seized the traveller by the arm. '"The gentleman" he announced, twill accompany me to the bureau, where we'll make out his bill for duty. Come It is at the other end of the dock"
 "Neverr said the American. You have no right to charge me duty. l didn't bring 1t in. I'll see my consul right away, and he'll send a big fleet and lombard this blooming town
 Softly" said the officer. You'll pay duty, all right. There are fifteen wit nesses to prove that that candy o1 yours was consumed on German soil"
 The duty was paid, and the consul delphia Ledger.

"Goes" of Whiskv-

Forty "goes" of whisky had been consumed by the licensed victualer, and still he was sober-at least so he told the city coroner. Goes is a com mon term in this connection, but it lacks the full appropriateness to the situation of its Scottish equivalent in the story of another big drink told by Dean Ramsay. It was at party near Arbroath, held to celebrate the recon ciliation of two farmers who had long been enemies. When the party at last broke up, at a morning hour, the pe- nurious lady of the house, who had not been able to sleep a wink for anxiety, called over the stairs to the servant:
 "How many bottles of whisky have they used. BettyY'
 'I dinna ken. mem." was the answer, 'but they've druncken six gang O wa ter"
 To the poor girl. who had to "gang" to the we'll for the qualifying fluid, these were "goes' indeed.-London Chronicle

Overheard.

"Overboard" is engraved on a metal label fastened to many articles of para phernalia seen about the decks of a modern war vessel. It means that the article so marked should be thrown overheard whenever action with an enemy's ship becomes imminent. AL cohol chests, turpentine tanks, paints. spare spars, unnecessary matches and other articles easily destroyed or splin- tered by shell fire are thus labeled. The president of Occident college, Cal
 fornla, is said to have given the word a new meaning in civil life when he used 1t to indicate those who are unfit. useless or inapt in the struggle of life. It is strong word and as such can be appropriately applied to men and things which when a ship must go to battle are not necessary CT material to the end desired.-Army and Navy Life

K Was Worth About Shilling to Pick
 Those Bones.
 Colonel Ebenezer Sproat of Revolu- tionary fame was born and bred in MIddleboro, Mass. He was always fond of a joke and was quick to seize an opportunity to indulge his propen- sity, as the following incident Illus trates. His father, also Colonel Eproat kept a tavern. One day while Ebenezer was at home on furlough three private soldiers. on their return from the seat of war. called for a cold luncheon.
 Mrs. Sproat set on the table some bread and cheese with the remnants of the family dinner, which her son thought rather scanty fare for hungry men. He felt a little vexed that the defenders of the country were not more bountifully supplied. The sol diers, after satisfying their appetites, asked him how much they should pay. Ebenezer said he would ask his moth CT. He found her in the kitchen.
 "Mother," he said, "how much is it worth to pick those bonesT"
 About a shilling. I guess" she an- swered.
 The young officer returned to the sol diers and, taking from the barroom till shillings and smiling genially upon them, gave each man one and with good wishes sent them on their way. Mrs. Sproat soon after came in and asked Ebenezer what he had done with the money for the soldiers dinner.
 In apparent amazement he exclaim- ed: ''Money! Did not ask you what 1t was worth to pick those bones, and you said shilling? I thought it little enough, for the bones were pretty bare, and handed the men the money from the till. and they are gone"
 Mrs. Sproat could not find heart to reprove her favorite son for this mis- of her words, and then she, too, loved joke, and so, after an instant's glum look, she laughed and said 1t was all right.

An Idnl ahat4nreh-

Some one has said that people that are fond of hero worship should never make a pilgrimage to see the hero Here is an instance:
 An enthusiastic young lady admirer called on her favorite author. In speaking of her visit she said:
 ''I'm sorry I saw him. He didn't look at all like an author-no long, wavy hair: no dreamy expression: no eyes fixed on the stars as if to read the secrets of the heavens: no musical, low voice-nothing to suggest the genius No. I found him leaning on the garden gate. In his shirt sleeves, swearing at grocery boy! And his hair was close cropped. and he looked as if he hadn't shaved in a week. He was the most terribly human specimen I ever saw."-Atlanta Constitution.

 "On the contrary. saw none of the boys" he declared. q was far too sick at heart to mix with them and hear their ugly comments"
 "Was really as bad as that?" asked the girl wonderingly. 'I thought 1t was because was an amateur and had the money to hire the theater and the company. They always jump upon the rich amateurs, had heard. I thought that was It. Was really as bad as all that?"
 Don't ask me-" pleaded Hartley. but the pirl persisted.
 ''You have good voice and a good presence" he said slowly. "You have some crude ability, but that is all. You lack the spark of genius. Even money cannot buy that"
 ''Then you think I will never be an actress?' she asked with Qulvering lip. Hartley shook his head, and she turned way to the window, pressing her brow to the cool pane, against which the sleet rattled angrily.
 For several minutes she stood thus looking out into the whirling snow and hail with unseeing eyes, while Hartley silently watched her.
 He would have given the world to take her in his arms and comfort her, but instinctively he realized that she must fight her battle alone She was the one woman in all the world to him, and yet he dared not speak
 At last she turned, and now her eyes were smiling, though her lips still were drawn and white.
 'Why struggle against unanimous condemnation? You must be right" she conceded. "I never shall make an actress, and you said that you never would marry an actress"
 ''I'd marry you if you were Bern hardt and Duse in one," he cried, "but I rather would marry just you, dear Will you have me? In spite of the blow that I have struck your pride can you love meY
 "I hate to marry wife beater." she said, with a wan little smile, ''but, Frank, I think I'd rather have your love than to be a great actress, and don't mind the notlce-now."
 Jimmie, coming in with a card, turned and fled precipitately.
 'I used to think that MT. Murphy had the best of 1t, goin' to prize fights an ball games," he said redectively, "but I guess it's MT. Hartley that has the cinch. I'd rather kiss that pippin than know the hull ball team"

Then Take a Long Think and Mind
 Your Own Business.
 The other day a man travelling on a shore line train noticed. protruding from an overhead rack, a dress suit case which he recognized as belonging to a friend. He knew that his friend always got of at the station which they had just passed, and as he was not in the seat the conclusion was in- evitable that he had jumped off the train and forgotten it.
 The man called the conductor and explained the case to him. After some discussion and a mild protest on the part of the conductor that it wasn't a part of his duty, the suit case was put off at the next station, with instruc- tions to send 1t back on the first train the other way.
 The man, feeling that he had done an able and friendly act. settled down for the rest of his journey.
 But not for long. The face of his friend. who had been in the smoker and who happened on that particular afternoon to be going on to New Lon don to attend a dinner party-loomed before him.
 The moral of this is. of course, quite evident.
 : Be sure you're right and then mind your own business.-Life.

 The colonel was something of a pigeon fancier and had so much con- fidence in certain strain of homers he was making hobby of that when his friend the major proposed a wager the colonel removed the limit.

Mean while the major communed with Joe, the colored boy, and after the tender ing of a certain half dollar and prom ises of immunity from the conse- quences of the colonePs wrath later Joe agreed to clip the pigeons wings sub rosa.
 Two days passed, and the major pre- scented himself duly at the coloneHs. The colonel eyed him with suspicious narrOwneSs.

A Washington woman recently hired a negress. Going to the kitchen one day, she was amazed to find the ne- gress sitting on the floor, with her hair standing out from her head like black nimbus. The girl was pull ing one curly lock and then another iD such a way as to suggest that she had suddenly lost her reason.
