HIS SMUGGLING TRICK.
4 Mexican Traders Way of EVadlns
 .hs Customs Inspectors.

A Mexican Traders Way of Evsdlns
 ths Customs Inspectors.
 There are ways of evading duty down on the Rio Grande impossible to the port of New York. The Mexican found a way. He was merchant just on the other side of the Mexican bor- der. He had two vases which had caught the fancy of an American GUS toner, but they were dear, and with the duty added-not to be thought of. The customer told the Mexican so. The Mexican fell S5. But the price was still too dear. The Mexican fell again. But still there was the duty staring the customer in the face. Then sud denly, without explaining how, the Mexican guaranteed that the vases should be delivered free of duty on the other side of the Rio Grande-next morning at breakfast time.
 And" the Mexican add in char acteristic manner, "I will be there to collect"
 At breakfast next morning, as the customer was eating leisurely, the Mex lean appeared.
 Where are the vases?" the customer inquired.
 "In the next room, senor," replied the Mexican, smiling blandly.
 And the duty|
 ''There is no duty, senor."
 How in thunder did you manage it" asked the American, amazed.
 "I paid a greaser a dollar, senor. With the vases strapped to his back, he swan the Rio Grande. See, senor" -hurrying to bring in a vase from the next room and touching it gently with his flngers-"they are whole, perfect" New York Post.

The Land of the Kurds.

Kurdistan appeals to the archaeol- ogist. It was ruled successively by the PerSians, Macedonians, Parthians, Sas- sanians and Romans and Is exceeding ly rich in antiquarian remains, most of which are still unexamined. The Kurds are a wild, pastoral partly nomadic people, are mostly Mohammedans and are very hostile to Christians, their cruel massacre of the Armenians being only too we'll known. Kurdistan be- longs to both the Turkish and the Per sian monarchies, though chiefly to the former.-London Chronicle.

Courtesy and Work.

When I want to find fault with my men I say nothing when go through their departments. If l were satisfied I would praise them. My silence hurts them more than anything else in the world, and 1t doesn't give offense. It makes them think and work harder.
 Many men fail because they do not see the importance of being kind and courteous to the men under them. Kindness to everybody always pays for itself And, besides, 1t is pleasure to be kind. I have seen men lose im- portant positions, or their regulations which are more important than any position-by little careless disCOurte- sies to men whom they did not think 1t was worth while to be kind to- Charles NJ.

Effective Danger Sign.

A contractor who has observed that pedestrians pay little attention to signs has evolved new plan to guard against accidents to "innocent bystanders." A steam shovel working many feet below the surface of the street attracts scores of persons daily, They stop, lean over the board railing around the excava- tion and stare. Sometimes the crowd gets so large that there is danger of the railing giving way and plunging them into the excavation. Danger" signs don't worry them: hence the new idea of the contractor. He has smeared the top of the railing with tar and grease. Now persons who never shudder at the danger" sign flee from the grease menace as If it were poison.-Philadel- phia North American.

GOOD AND BAD MANNERS.
AAd 4hs Brand Used In the Privacy of
 Che Homo Circle.

There are three sorts of manners good, bad and the sort that are used in the privacy of the home circle. The last named sort are usually the worst.
 Good manners seldom come naturally to any male. This is proved by the fact that they must generally be ham, mered into small boys with large, TO- bust cane, the flat of the hand or the rear side of hairbrush. As the boy grows to manhood he displays bis na- tive bad manners by telling his wife what he'd like to say to the tiresome folk who come to call and the people who give parties which he Is expected to attend. His early training, how ever, prevents him from exhibiting his bad manners in public. Occasionally male child is blessed with good man. ners from birth, but he usually expires with exceptional thoroughness shortly before or immediately after his fifth birthday.
 Men with bad manners are generally very successful In life because their competitors and opponents lose their tempers, thus making 1t easy for the persons with the bad manners to de feat them. Before bad hammered per son becomes wealthy he is known as selfsh boor. Afterward he Is said to be eccentric.
 There is grave danger that while a bad hammered person Is still in the boor class some strong minded and strong muscled individual may resent his bad manners and spread his flea lures hither and yon over his face with & few brisk and well directed blows of a pair of No. Il fists. If one cares to run the risk, bad manners are great things on which to gamble.-Kenneth L. Roberts In Life.

The Firemen of Skagway will soon hold their ball and the fire men of Skagway should be shown by the people of Skagway that their splendid efficiency is appreciated to the full. There is one good req sen why this city is not visited by disastrous fires like other cities, an that is the skill and energy of the men who fight the fires It is, 1n- deed, 8 question whether the men e the fire department receive what the city owes them. Anyhow. they cannot receive too much, and when an event like their dance comes of it presents a splendid opportunity to all of us to give a slight manifesto ton at least of the fact that We are not unmiDdful of their services. Not only should we buy tickets TOT the dance but we should all make it 8 point to be present.
