which called for three dollars and

handed me that he didn't crack a

Then | got reckless and handed him
fifty-cent tip.
The waiter looked at the fifty cents
and turned pale.
Then he looked at me and turned
paler.
Then he tried to thank me, but he
caught another flash of that plebeian
fifty and it choked him.
Then he took long look at the half
dollar and with low moan he passed
away.
In the excitement grabbed Peaches
and we few for home.

1 Besides. / don't want to live as long
as Methuselah. If did I'd have to
learn to Tango some time In the goo

| same as everybody else in the world
Can you get flash of Methuselah

Weisenfeffer's pedal parlors? And
then having to survive for 905 years
| with the dance bug in his dome!

When Peaches recovered from the
shock of my outburst over the potato
pudding she said the only way | could
square myself was to take her to the
| very-latest-to-datest hotel in New
York for dinner.
That is some task if you live up
new hotels in New York now the same
as they open oysters-by the dozen.
However, after stuffing my pockets
with all my earthly possessions, we
hiked forth and started for the Built
fast-the very latest thing in expen-
sive beaneries.
Directly we entered it's polished por-
tails we could see from the faces of
the clerks and the clocks that lot
of money changed hands before the
Builtfast finally became an assessment
center
In the lobby the furniture was COW
cred with men about town, who sat
around with checkbook in each
hand and made faces at the cash reg
lister.
There are more bellboys than bed
rooms In the hotel. They use them
for change. Every time you give the
cashier SIS he hands you back s1.50
and six bellboys.
We took a peep at the diamond
backed dining room, and when | saw
the walters refusing everything but
certified checks in the way of tip,
| said to Peaches, This is no place
for usi" But she wouldn't let go, and
we filed in to the appetite killery.
"A NCiy pOlltC dllcI,
with sergeant-waiter and two cor
poral-waiters, greeted us and we gave
the countersign, Abandon wealth, all
ye who enter here
Then the lieutenant-waiter and his
army corps deployed by columns of
four and escorted us to the most ex-
pensive looking trough I ever saw in
dining room.
Peaches" | said to friend wife,
Pm doing this to please you, but af-
ter | pay the check, it's me to file
petition in bankruptcy
She just grinned, picked up the
point-lace napkin and began to admire
the onyx furniture
"Qu souhaitez-vous?" said the
waiter, bowling so low that could feel
a chill running through my little bank
account
Il guess he means you," | whis-
pered to Peaches, but she looked very
solemnly at the menu card and be-
gan to bite her lips.

country. Next in quantity and first in
importance, perhaps, is rye, for this
forms the principal breadstuff Bar
ley ranks third in order and is culti-
waited in all parts of the country ex-
cept the extreme North. The wheat
production is less than half that of
barley and one-tenth that of oats.
The national bread is made In the
form of large, round cake, from one
to three feet in diameter, about as
thick as plate and nearly as hard.
1t is called fiat bread.
Considerable interest in live stock
raising is being shown just now, and
some good beef is being grown in the
central and southern sections. Dairy
interests have made phenomenal prog
ress. Butter enough to supply the
enormous home industry and large
quantities for export is produced.
Nettle soup is an epicurean novelty
served at the Continental restaurants
in Stockholm. 1t is made frs.m tender
young nettles.
A Land of Fish.
Sweden is land of fish Trout and

The Swedes first gave to the world
fish balls. They taught US how to pre-
pare boneless Goldfish, and they have
added more than any other nation to
the knowledge of picking and curing
fish.
Stewing is the most popular manner
of cooking fresh fish, and stewed fish

They were talking bout a promis-

good as travelling salesman.
The first man said to the other
man:
1T was queer about the boy. He

DID HIS DUTY AS GUARDIAN
Adviser to Youthful King of Sweden
Proved Himself the Right Man for
the Position. H

King Charles XII of Sweden, who
came to the throne at the early age
of fifteen, went out riding one time
in company with his cousin, the duke
of Holstein, and few other gentle
men of the court. On the way they
came upon a pile of timber standing
by the roadside. The duke of Hol-
stein suggested to the king that the
company try their skill riding over
the pile On their horses Charles as
sented, and insisted upon being the
first to go over. But just as he was
about to dig his spurs into his horse,
tells Das Buch fuer ALE, Count Wacht-
meister seized the bride and said to
the king: Don't try to ride over
that
The duke of Holstein became angry.
How dare you cross the wishes of
the king?" he exclaimed.
Calmly Wachtmeister answered:
Say what you will, my king shall not
do it,
Holstein then reined up to him
and replied wrathfully: You do not
seem to know to whom you are speak.
ing"
'Oh, yes" said the other, laughing
scornfully. Il am speaking with the
duke Of Holstein. But will you kindly
recall that you are addressing Count
Wachtmeister, the royal adviser? And
as l said before, my king shall not
break his neck by such a wild and
dangerous jump. Perhaps you were
thinking of becoming king of Sweden
in that event But you won't so long
as Hans Wachtmeister- lives"
Just then the young king, who was
standing by listening to the discus
sion. rode up to his adviser, and tap
ping him on the shoulder approvingly,
said to the company: NO, gentle
men, guess we won't Jump that pile.
1t is a bit dangerous" And with that
they continued on their way in silence.
