Somewhat Novel System in Vogue In
Stores OF Salem.

Evidence of that thrift which con-
trlbuted its share in ma king Salem the
prosperous little city it is to-cay smote
me unawares the first day ventured
into one of the numerous antique
stores.
The shops exterior was tempting
and I entered, to find some Indifferent
mahogany Uttered about severe
maiden lady who stood framed in an
extremely interesting interior. !
noted the disposition of things and
was preparing to leave, having just
replaced something on the shelf where
It belonged. when the lady said That
will be ten cents"
Thank you; l really couldn't use
"" l replied, edging away for the
door.
But the charge is ten cents" she
added, coldly. moving nearer.
So ! understand" said I, skillfullv
maneuvering for a hurried but digni-
fed exit.
The admission to the store is ten
cents" she put in here, with chilly
distinctness, outflanking mo.
For anything savoring of novelty in
this fin de steele business world let us
be truly thankful! The shopkeeper
who charges you a fee for the privil-
ege of entering her store does not
lose In dignity by the proceeding,
She insists upon the disbursement
with such an air of divine right that
for the moment you feel strangely
Ike the recipient Of favor, and
wander down the street, a prey to
vague fears that possibly you may
owe her money.-Harper's Magazine.

ONE THING LACKING
WHAT SPOILED THE PLEASURE
OF THE cLAMsAkE.
OenatIred Function At the Peters
Mansion Saddened Those unfor.
tunate Enough to Be "Amona
Those Present."

Frank Daniels, Drury Underwood and
Mr.. and Mrs. Benjamin Hapgood Burt
all went down to Douglas manor, l.. 1
Sunday to a clam5ake rendered them
by Mr.. and Mrs. Mason Peters and
Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Williams
II was real old.fashioned Long
Island bake. Not one Of your gas
range bakes, but a genuine one, with
spring chicken and green corn and
sweet potatoes and seawood and hot
stones and tarpaulin cover and all
that. o, this clambake was right or
It wasn't any.
Now, don't eat anything until you
get at the CLANS" said Mr. and Mrs
Peters.
Yes, save little cozy corner for
the Clans" urged Mr. and Mrs vii
liams.
So the guests obeyed orders. They
arose early in the morning and toyed
with rowing machines and health lifts
and other such laborious inventions to
get up an appetite, and then abstained
from food to be sure that hunger
would be where they could lay their
hand on 1t when the bell rang down
at Douglas manor
Were you ever at a clambake, An
drew" asked Mr.. Underwood.
NO, not a real one" said Andrew,
as he held his head back and let his
teeth water. Il went to q bluefish
breakfast at Peterses once. l didn't
eat for "a hours, to be sure I'd be in
trim for it. Then Mason took me four
miles out to sea at the gray early
morning. rowed the boat We went
to catch the fish. We didn't get
bite. No, I've never been. at a real
clambake, but / was at that bluefish
breakfast. forgot to say that l rowed
those four miles back on the deep
blue sea, too"
Down at Douglas manor everything
had the hustle Of preparations. The
spring chickens had all been sprung.
the green corn was on hand, the sweet
potatoes and the seaweed and the
tarpaulin and the other things were
there. 1t was time to get the clans.
Mr. and Mrs. Peters and Mr.. and
Mrs. Williams got In the auto and
went down the beach to the mud flats.
They were going to dig the clans
themselves. SO as TO be sure they
would be fresh.
They worked away in the mud for a
couple of hours while the tide was out
and gathered about a bushel or more.
Then a big sunburned native came up
and wanted to know whose clans they
were digging.
"Anybody's," said Mr.. Peters.
Not much; they're nine" said the
native, and he produced deed to
show he owned the mud fiat. He
would not sell clans. He wanted his
clans He took the basket and scat
tered the bivalves far and wide. Then
he ordered the trespassers off his
ground.
BY this time the tide was in again
and there was no more clam digging
for the day There was no real Rhode
Island clambake There was an ach-
ing void in several empty stomachs.
Andrew Mack went around behind the
house and kicked himself.
"Stung again. he said. Another
bluefish breakfast"
Ii was sad party which drifted
back to little old New York tina;
night.
Were you ever at a clambake?"
asked Mr. Underwood.
Not yet" replied Mr.. Mack.-New
