BUY ASHLESS TEA NEXT TIME
Quality Shown in Novel Test That
Is Declared to Be In
faIIbIe.

81 bought tea the other day at a
Japanese store" said the young New
York housekeeper. THE proprietor
saw that | had doubts about the quail
ity of tea that had been recommended
so he darted back to the rear of the
store. l expected him to return with
a cup of steaming drink, but he
brought a small ash tray and match
instead. He threw pinch of tea into
the tray, touched it with a lighted
match, and watched it burn. Then he
applied the same test to another brand
of tea that had claimed my half-heart-
ed allegiance. The first sample of tea
showed only a small flake of ash, the
second three times as much.
(Which shows he said, that the
first tea is best That is an infallible
test. The better the tea the fewer
the ashes. | invite all my customers
to test tea that way before buying.
81 took the ashless tea, of course"
Since then have wondered what the
average American grocer would say
If customers should apply lighted
match to their tea canisters before
giving an order

NEWSPAPER EASY TO MAKE
Ask Almost Anybody and He VIII
Tell You at Once How 1t
Should Be Done.

Men who make newspapers some
times believe that their profession is
an exacting one. They are wrong.
1t is the simplest calling. Making
newspaper is an easy trick. Anybody
can do it.
A lawyer with only a diploma and
brass sign, who would lose suit even
if the other side was ready to confess
judgment, will tell you how to run
a newspaper. A physician who would
send his patient to the morgue before
the prescription has been filled Will
know all the fine points of making
newspaper. An actor who never earned
any other plaudit than soft tomato
will give instructions in handling the
worlds news. Any old lady who
knows enough to get off street car
backward has positive opinions on the
press. Even a society person who
never paid anything but call or
made anything but visit or did any
thing but tailor knows how stupid
these men are who write stories"
edit copy" wrestle with heads that
WOu III Stt TIC puPSi out oh'
time.
One reason for the universally of
perfection in this trade, among those
who do not work at it, is that every
body has been employed in it. 1t is
a most unusual thing to meet man
who, when the occasion seems ripe,
will not say, Il used to be newspa-
per man myself" Every time a man
works his country editor for a puff
on the strength of a big pumpkin he
graduates in Journalism. When he
writes a piece for "The Squash
County Clarion about "a most enjoy
able entertainment" he completes his
postgraduate course in newspaper
work, and when he writes communi-
cation on both sides of the paper to
the editor he becomes thirty-third
degree member of the Tribe of
Scribe.
That so many men have abandoned
literature for the law, medicine and
other easy walks of life simply shows
that many men would rather fail in
one thing than Washington
Star.

Actors as plplornatlc Agents.

In his speech at the luncheon at

put the actor above the minister, the

of international understanding and
good will; and until political questions
became acute-in other words, until
oar rockets are touched-the claim
holds good. If the arts are the chief
