Carl Smith Furnishes In formation to Londoner In terested In Cost of Food In Yankee Land.

Carl Schmidt, owner of Schmidt's restaurant, which recently had the honor of being an issue in the Eng fish elections, replied today to W. E. Freir of London, England, who had asked certain questions about the cost of food in this country. MT. Schmidt's reply is as follows: 'Mr w. B. Freir,

 London, England.
 "Your kind letter, relative to my res taurant, received. It is quite true that I furnish a good meal for 25 cents. It is scarcely true that my restaurant is patronized by people of any part1cu- lar class, however, because in this country a; very wealthy man may pa tronize a restaurant where food is served at a very moderate price, and a much poorer man, a higher priced place. That will be a matter of taste, and the division will not be along class lines.
 'I enclose menu cards of my own restaurant and cards of one of our leading hotels. It is true that the cost of food staples has been rapidly ad- vancing for some years, largely be- cause monopolies have been establish ed that are strong enough to control meat. fruits, cereals and many other things Hoping that I may be of fur ther service to you, I am

On . sailino Vessel.

Instead of the usual routine work on q steamer-paint washing and so forth the work on a sailing ship varies widely. 1f may be making or shorten ing saf1, bending or unbending fine or heavy weather canvas, squaring in or bracfng up the yards, tacking or wear ing ship, and, no matter what the la- bo<, one always had the satisfaction of seeing the result. The speed and sail ing qualities of . vessel were things that could be discussed with interest as well as tAe length of passage.

Jimn1y,s Recitation,


 Jimmy is one of the most enthusias- tic members of his Sunday school. He is usually very quiet, but when, soon after he joined, a storm prevented many members of his class from com ing to take their parts in long planned entertainment Jimmy could not endure in silence the distress of his teacher.
 Hi can speak piece," he said bash fully. "Oh, can you? What is it about?' "'Bout the beasts that went with Noah" Well, said the distracted teacher, q haven't time to hear it now, but I think 1t ought to help fill up. Thank you, Jimmy"
 When Jimmy's name was called the small man mounted the platform, put his hands in his pockets and proudly and loudly spouted the following: The helx and the helephant hentered the
 har.-
 When the helephant hopened the ball. The helk masked the helephant, Whats

Coyote and Jack Rahhit.

The speed of the jack rabbit has al- ways been proverbial among western men, like the speed of a coyote. In a straightaway race it is claimed that the jack rabbit can distance the coyote, but he usually falls victim to the coyotes superior intelligence. The fa- vorite coyote method for catching jack rabbits is for one of the animals to start jack and attend to the work of keeping the victim on the run, while the other coyote sits down, patiently awaiting the arrival of his dinner. The jack rabbit when he has a free range will run in circles, and the coyotes cleverly count on this habit. Before long the rabbit will arrive at the place from which he started, and there coyote No 2, fresh and ready for short sprint, will swoop down upon him and then divide the meal with the coyote that has done the ac fuaI chasing.-New York Press.
