A Lost Cigar.

Mr.. ]. Pierpont Morgan smoked large
black and costly cigars. They were
made Of a particularly dark and fra
grant leaf grown on his own estates
in the Santa Clara province of Cuba.
These cigars were very valuable and
were highly priced by any Of Mr..
Morgan's friends who were lucky
enough to get a few.
Here is a story as he told It himself:
One day | was going abroad my
yacht in New York when l found l
had nothing to light my cigar with.
l stopped n Of the men on the pier
and asked him for a match, which he
gave me readily. In return for his
courtesy ! handed him one of my
cigars, which l think a good deal of.
"He accepted it promptly. Thanks
he said; I was just out Of tobacco
Then he broke it into little bits and
began to stuff it into his pipe!"

"'Statistics show declared the mem.

Very flowery.

In a lecture the other day Sir Arthur
Quiller-Couch. the we'll known author
who is professor of English literature
at Cambridge. said that certain writer's,
like the Hindu Babu. were always
trying to make ''our poor dear Ian
guage more foriferous, more poetical."
Babus are notorious. of course. for
their passion for using 6owery Eng
lish. and they seize eagerly on any
phrase. whether poetical or slangy.
that may happen to catch their fancy.
Sir Arthur gave as an example a story
Of a Babu who wanted to send a tele-
gram announcing the death Of his
mother. A plain statement Of the fact
Of death did not satisfy him. so he
wired. 1.-The hand that rocked the era
