Another of New York's famous res
taurants will put up its shutters and
go out of business the end of this
month. 1t is Mouquins restaurant, for
two decades one of the best known
eating places in the old Tenderloin
district. Mon dieu," sadly remarked
the proprietor yesterday; life is just
one ID funeral announcement
after another" The picturesque old
wooden structure on Sixth avenue,
near Twenty-eighth street, which is
one of New York's oldest landmarks,
will be RACED for a skyscraper. 1t was
built more than one hundred years ago
by Isaac Varian and stood In the GEN.
ter OF Varian farm, whose rambling
fields and pastures stretched west to
the river and to the east as far as Lex
ington avenue. Through this pastoral
landscape wound a couple of cow
paths. These paths are there yet. One
Is known as Broadway and the other
as Sixth avenue. When Isaac Varian
died the farm was sold. A public road
was cut through the place and 1t
passed directly in front Of the old
house. A line Of stage coaches operat-
ed over this road, and what rs now
MOaQuin's restaurant used TO be the

New fine pearls are rarely found
nowadays because the demand has
been SO great and the fisheries have
been worked so continuously that the
pearls are not given time to grow. II
q fine pearl is bought, 1t is rarely one
that has not been in the market for
many years and passed from one deal
er to another. bearers today depend
to q large extent upon purchases Of
pearls from coIIectlons Of rajahs and
princes In India and of old families in
Europe. They DECLARE that every time
a large and really fine pearl appears
in the market hundred wealthy per
sons bid for It. Consequently the best
pearls are beyond the reach OF any but
the wealthIest people.

NO MACHINERY FOR ANCHORS
Indispensable Shipping AdJdncts Are
Still Constructed by Manual
Labor Exclusively.

Strange though it may seem, anchors
are made by men and not by machines.
At one time Germany seemed anxious
to capture our anchor industry. High
wages were offered to tempt our
smiths to go to Hamburg and Lubbock
to shape the anchors for the great
Hamburg liners then ON the
stocks. Fortunately for Britain the
attempt failed and the business re-
mqined this side of the North sea.
The ancient anchor shape was. and
is, good enough for light shipping, but
the Inud-hooks of the present day NAM
moths must have a more extensive grip
on the sea floor. They are vast pieces
Of metal work, in weight running up to
many tundredwefghts.
Anchor smithing IL about the only
shfpbuilding trade In which machinery
has failed to displace men. The black
est Of black squads are the anchor
smiths; their work is continually
among white hot metal, among fumes.
smoke, glare, and dust.
The hammers regularly welded by
them are the heaviest known in any
industry.-London Tlt-Bits.

seIf.ReIlance.

Now Is the time for every one who
wants work to think up something for
himself. Don't depend upon somebody
else. The integrity Of life consists in
self-rellance. Be your own proprietor,
If 1t Is Of nothing else but an acre and
a little shop. We know the difficulty
and do not discard the sympathy. But
regard rather that independence and
high purpose that make up the real
manhood. Men viii have TO work for
others while time lasts, but there is
nothing SO noble in the hearts as the
aspiration to be ones own man and
direct ones own destiny. Society 10
divided In classes these days, each one
striving to outwit the other, but the
grandest class of ali is the man him
self, with his own destiny in his fists.
With all our organized Industry, there
never was a time when individual en-
terprise had q better chance than now.
If you are artIculated In some great in
dustry, keep in the heart the hope that
you will be your own master some day.

Among Fishes the important Fact Of

In the Dublin museum @ stuffed

wettino the Block.

In many villages In Berkshire and
Hampshire. England, the ancient Gus
tom Of "Wetting the Block" is still
kept up. The Crispins of these two
counties used to meet together on the
evening of the first Monday in March,
and celebrate the fact that they had
ceased working by candle-light.
There was sometimes a supper, pro-
vided by the employer, on these Occa-
sibns; there was always little to
drink. After the meal was ended, the
block candlestiek was placed in the
middle of the room, the shop candle
was lighted, and when all glasses were
filed, the oldest hand poured the con-
tents of his glass over the candle to
extinguish 1t.

New Coli ciMha

OF special interest to golf players Is
a club made with steel instead Of a
hickory shaft, shown In Popular Me
chanics magazine. which. 1t Is claimed,
possesses all the fiexdbility Of the
wooden shaft and has additional desir-
able features. The steel shaft is hol.
low, tapers toward the lower end, and
is much smaller IN diameter than one
of hickory. This is said to give the
player additional driving power, be
cause of reduced friction when the
club is swung through the air.

FACTS ABOUT LEGAL TENDER
Points In Law Which Seem Is Show
, That Money Can Sometimes
! Not Be Money.

In Philadelphia police court a mum.
bera of years ago there came up an in.
teresting, question that related to q
nickel
the coin In question had been offer
cd to a street car conductor by
tough citizen, who. Inspired by an al
coholic sense of hurnor, inserted 1t in
the toe Of his boot and proffered it
thus.
row ensped. which wound up in
court, where the conductor was yindl-
Gated, the judge declaring that he was
under no obligation to accept money
offered in such fashion.
What constitutes a lawful 'tender"
OF money is a question that occupies
many pages in the law books, an ex-
change remarks.
A man has been known to offer a
bucketful of pennies in payment of a
debt to creditor with whom he had a
quarrel and in most instances the
creator has felt Obliged to accept the
coin.
But there was no such obligation, for
pennies under the law of the United
States are not legal tender in amounts
above 20 cents. If you owe me dol
lar and offer me 100 pennies it is no
payment unless choose to accept
them.
How about nickels? Exactly the
same. They are not legal tender in
amounts over % cents.
Silver dimes, quarters and half dol.
lars are legal tender up to $40. Above
that sum they may be refused and the
creditor may justly claim that no law
full profer Of money has been made to
him.

TOOK His WORK SERIOUSLY
harXard 4Efofssaor Of Greek Insisted
That His Students Should Give
Best Efforts to stud:es.


Ascholar Of unusaal appearance and!
manner was Professor Sophoeles Of
Harvard, whose genuine love Of Greek
left him no patience with Indifferent
students and sometimes led to the
charge that he dealt unjustly with the
young men In his classes. This anec-
dote of him appears in Mr.. John Spen-
Ger Clark's life of John Fiske,
One day backward student called
to explain his remissness and to assure
the professor that he did love his
Greek study,
Then name two OF your favorite
passages" said the professor.
The student named one In the Tliad
and Sohe in the oedipus. Professor
Sophocles handed him the books, say
ing Find those passages and read
them to me-"
The student, in his reading, made
several serious mistakes.
"Yodng lnan,e said the PROFESSOR,
