Unusual sasaeity That Was Lauded by
the Professor.
That the p%roverbial absentminded
professor is sometimes ably abetted by
his wife is illustrated by a story told
Of Professor Bunsen. One evening
about the usual hour for retiring he
took it into his head to run over to
the club just as he and madam were
returning from an evening call.
"But," said the lady, II must have
the front door locked before I retire."
This emergency staggered the pro.
fessor, and as he looked bewildered at
his wife the lady, seized with an in

I'LL go in and lock the door and
throw you the key from the window"
This program was carried out, and
when he reached the club the profess
OF related the incident to a friend as
evidence Of his wife's unusual sagac-
ity.
The friend greeted the story with a
roar of laughter.
Sand why, my dear professor" he
said, "did you not simply. admit your
wife, lock the door from the outside
and come away?"
'True," calculated the learned man
Of science. eve eve thought of that"
The climax Of the incident was
reached an hour later when, returning
home, the professor discovered that
the lady in her excitement had thrown

Beans. IN BOSTON,
The Millions Of Quarts That Are An

The Millions Of Quarts That Are An
.nuaIIy Baked and Eaten.
Boston baked beans are known
around the globe. In the city Of Bos-
ton alone about 100000 quarts Of
baked beans are devoured annually, to
SAY nothing Of the pork that goes with
them and the brown bread that is also
served. There. are. factorieseor baker
les which handle. nothing hut baked
beans from one, years. end to thu other.
One Of, the largest. Of these. which sup-
plies restaurants wholly, bakes 1900
quarts Of beans a week. Other baker
'aes. also furnish brown bread, while
nearly every bakeshop that makes
bread; pastry and pies, also bakes
beans several times q week.. There
are bakeries with ovens that will hold
1000 quarts each.
The preparation and baking of beans
are interesting operations. In estab-
lishments where beans only are baked
it is done on a huge scale. There r
great kettles that hold two or three
bushels Of beans, and: into these the
beans are put to soak and parboil.
Then the pots Of e~arthenware, varying
in size from one quart to two gallons,
are ranged around on tables and filled
from the big kettles. Every quart Of
beans is carefully picked over and
sorted and cleaned Of all dirt and dead
beans before being put into the kettles.
The ovens are huge brick affairs, glow.
ing red with heat. Experts consider
that beans cannot be properly cooked
except in a brick oven. Some of the
ovens hold 1000 quarts each. Filled
with the loaded pots, they present a
sight worth beholdin& So hot are the
ovens that long handled fat shovels
are used to push the pots in and take
them out.--New York Tribune.
