close of business February 30, show
ed %$jO5,OS3 cash on hand in all

FROM OUR FO0LISHNESS
GOOD LORD. DELIVER US
From tho Mothers Magazine.

The blessed privilege of sharing adds
much to the sweetness of life; but the
woman who gives indiscriminately to
every appeal for assistance has need
to be delivered from her w foolish
ness. -gr. -H ~ .satul
Naturally at this season, we see
many persons apparently in need OF
assistance. and sometimes our own
good sense tells us that first aid must
come quickly-almost without thought
but not as a rule. Blind, reckless
giving Is As bad in It's way as penu-
robustness. + Er@&
Some time after the Calabrian earth
quake, an Italian woman Of the work
ing classes, who had suffered greatly
from the disaster, was rendered money
because she needed it. She refused to
accept it as a mere gift, saying in her
musical tongue: &h#s3 "~
Il will take 1t If I can repay you
in some way"
She had the right spirit. The giver
and the recipient were benefited by her
correct attitude, h M @>e
That we should endeavor to help
others goes without saying. But how
to help one another ought to be a mat
ter of deep study.
To know just where to help, to keep
that help from being a mere charity, 70
make it useful to both sides Is some
times worthy Of the best thought.

Robin set out at a rapid pace IN the
direction OF the city, but as he was
passing through a crowded street. a
crippled beggar with q patch over one
eye stopped him, and with a piteous
whine, implored his charity.
Tossing him a coin, Robin went or
his way, but the beggar, quite agile
Tor so diiapidated q creature, kept close
behind him, pouring out a stream ot
petitions n lamentations.

RUFF0 TAKES OFF COAT .
AND PLIES THE HAMMER

Standing before a blazing forge in
the Baldwin Locomotive works, Titta
Ruffo, the celebrated baritone Of the
Philadelphia Chicago Grand Opera
company, dexterously fashioned from a
red-hot ingot a beautiful c~ornucopia.
Fifteen years ago Ruffo was an iron
worker In his fathers foundry in
Rome. When he came to this city last
week Ruffo expressed a desire to see
the Baldwin Locomotive works. and
when he was taken through the huge
plant yesterday surprised his party
and the worlSrnen by shedding his coat
and vest, rolling up his sleeves and
giving an expert demonstration of his
~artisanship. When they learned the
Identity of the visitors the workmen
gave him a rousing cheer. W.T. 4
Ruffo was taken through the plant
by William J. Baird, son of the late
Matthew Baird. a former president OF
the works; Samuel Vauclain, vice
president; Arthur Il, Church, secre-
tary: Il. T. Stotesbury and Matthew
Baird. When Ruffo worked in his
fathers foundry he received 2 francs,
or 40 cents a day. Now he is paid
$1,000 a night OF the operate stage.

Fattened oysters.

Everybody in the restaurant was eat
ing raw oysters. All these oysters were
fat and white and milky. And every
body drowned them under horseradish
and lemon juice, pepper and salt. cat
sup, Chill sauce Tabasco. Hn
But a globe trotter, looking round the
room with a frown, said:
I'VE Americans continually boast
about our oysters, but, as a matter OF
fact, they are the worst oysters in the
world. The very worst.
I'VE sneer at English oysters, calling
them 'coppery.' Well, the answer to
our sneer Is that in England the best
natives cost from 70. cents to 81 a
dozen, while h best Americans are
plentiful there at 30 or 40 cents q
dozen. .. A..
Our oysters are not so carefully cul-
tiYated, and hence they have not the
exquisite flavor. of the English Whit
stable or the French Marenne vert:
but they wouldn't be so bad at that II
they weren't fattened.
"Fattening an oyster to make II
bigger is just exactly the same thing
as watering a pint of wine or a pint
Of milk to make 1t into q quart. Yes,
that is what fattening is. 1t is putting
an oyster in fresher'' thinner water
than the water Of its bed, and this
water. by osmosis, saturates the oyster
&Wells IL up llk q sponge makes II
fatter, yes--as a wet sponge is fatteI
than a dry one-and, by the same
token, II robs IL of its flavor.

fattened, as ! said before, they woulC
be good-though not so good as ar
English or French oyster. But fat

in u typhoid polluted stream-they are
un~bearable, and / don't wonder thai
everybody smothers them under a rec
blanket OF catsup and Chill sauce and

discovered the aseptic precautions to be
taken after surgical operations. Lister,
much like Harvey, who proved the the
DRY of the circulation OF the blood. was
a careful and conscientious nan who
avoided print until he had thoroughly
proved the value of his discovery. The
great objection in his mind was that
he felt that until every surgeon was
convinced OF the necessity for asepsis
and OF the value of the methods he
advocated and was efficiently skilled
in them, 1t would be a serious matter
to publish successful results OF opera
tons which it would be practically
criminal to perform unless complete

The Quickest Way,

Apropos Of the hatred Of the red flag
OF anarchy that the shooting of COL
onel Roosevelt aroused, Mayor
Clarence Carruth Of Cohoes said:
"A newspaper correspondent, at the
time OF the colonel's shooting, hopped
on a Chicago train, approached a po-
llceman, and asked: ~
Whats the way to the Mercy hos
pital? Tell me quick. I'm in a hurry
with a grim smile the policeman
answered: ~
The quickest way for you to get
TO the Mercy hospital, young Teller,
would be to yell at the top Of your
lungs, Murray for anarchy"
