". s5 for this Drummer. "a

The drummer from New, York. was
making his first trip through Maine
and had travelled up into the Aroos:
took region, where the towns are
small and far apart and the chief prod
ucts potatoes and Christmas trees.
Here he stopped over night in 9
hamlet that possessed merely 2 very
primitive inn: At dinner there was
no soup. but he was, served with flsh.
Then instead =. OF his plate being
changed the waitress came with 9
platter Of meat and placed q generous
helping carefully on one side OF the
fish bones. The drummer did not balk
at that, for he was very hungry and
ready, to pass over almost anything
for the sake Of good meal, and he
though it might be the regular Maine
style: 4. tg5.' I, a j,5:
Presently, however. the girl brought
in another platter.full Of pieces Of pie
and one OF these she Slid OF on the
same plate. Then the traveller thought,
it time to call a halt, for he had not
yet become used to p<e with fish
flavor. t,..5ss.. ..t2 Al: I 1. So ss;1s. tsrf
The serving maid was q bit uncer-
tain whether hegcould have the clean
plate, he requested and called the
landlord in. to. whom the guest ex-
plained HIS trouble. The host listened
attentively. but when the drummer
finished he withered that modest New
Yorker with . look OF scorn and de-
manded: ..r> ; y OF s .s...
What do you want Of all them diff
ferent plates, anyway? Have you got
partitions on your insides = s;S Il s5t.
And the drummer. realizing that the
hotel was charging him only $3.50 q
day, which had been exacted In ad-
vance. meekly subsided and ate his
pie humbly.

Profitable Volcano.

The republic OF San Salvador is
the only government on earth that
collects lighthouse fees on account of
. volcano that 1t owns and without
the slightest cost Of upkeep!
The volcanic beacon is about eight
miles inland from the port OF Acaju-
tia. and its pillar Of cloud by day
and Of hre by night Is Visible for
many miles out at sea. It bursts
forth every seven minutes, and IL just
rs accurate as any revolving light
that warns mariners OF, danger in any
part of the world. Every vessel that
puts in at Acajutia has to pay it's
lighthouse fee. There is no other
lighthouse than the volcano, but that
is q sufficient excuse for the govern
ment of San Salvador to make the
regulation charge for its gratuitous
services. ~. :"

X. c., who was called to the bar In
1875, writes in pie Powder:
is not the custom for leading ad.
.vocates of the present day to quarrel,

of Trade inquiry, where the leader on

declaring that his nerves would not

that he would endeayor to do so II his
friend would turn away his ugly mug.
