Whistler was always refined In his

While he was severe he was not ac-

Let Him Into n Secret.

A prominent member Of the London
Stock Exchange was a man who en-
joyed his wine and always took great
care of it when he happened to pick
up a choice vintage. While living in a
fashionable quarter of the west end
he CHANGED to buy a large cask of very
fine old port, which he placed at the
extreme end of his cellar. and to make
perfectly sure that it should not be
touched he had a wall built across the
cellar and so closed it in.
1t was about a year or two later that
one evening he accepted an invitation
to dine with his next door neighbOr
when the latter brought out some very
fine old port. Several glasses having
been drunk. the man of stocks and
shares asked his host where he could
get some port like it.
"Well. old fellow returned the 9th
err, II will let you into secret. I was
having some alterations made in my
cellar lately when we discovered that
some old fool who lived in this house
before me had built wall round 8
large cask Of port and forgotten all
about it. This is some of it. but I am
afraid there isn't much left"
