A CUP OF TEA.

An amusing incident occurred
during the plenary session of the
peace conference. The general see
rotary Of the conference had decided
wisely no doubt, not to open the
buffet to the plcnipotentiaries until
the end of the sitting. All was 60

OBSERVED A BETTER FATE
Frenehman Who Invented Cold Stor.
age Is Declared to Have Literally
Starved to Death.

Charles Teller, who invented cold
storage, starved to death in France.
The inventor was a modest, shrink
ing little man, who never learned to
distrust mankind. He gave his whole
life to study and then he was robbed
of the fruits of his labor by men to
whom he appealed for aid. Not hay
ing sufficient funds to riarket his
scheme for preserving foods by his
invention, he begged moneycd men
to try out his scheme. They finally
stole the idea.
Few people in Chicago, where his
idea made the packers rich, knew
the man. England, which was saved
from starvation during the recent
war by his invention, hardly heard
Of him. France forgot him until
few years ago, when somebody dis
covered that the anniversary of the
first shipment of cold storage meat
into France was near. Then Teller
was sent for, and he was decorated
with the legion of honor before the
senate and the chamber of deputies
and the president and premier Of
France did him honor. He was sent
home with a guard of honor, and
again forgotten. Few knew that he
was even then almost without funds,
and that he often went without food.
His poverty was discovered after his
death from starvation.

TOMMIES.LIKE FRENCH NAMES
Have Conferred Many Of Them on
the Young Britishers Of
Both Sexes.

French Christian names for Brit
ish children have become much more
common in the last year. This, Of
course, is because of the fancy our
Tommies in France have taken to
some of the prettier French names.
Pierre and Jules are bv far the
most common names in France for
boys, and after them Louis, Marcel,
Roaul, Lucien, Eticnne and Ger
vaise, any one of which given to the
newly arrived son and heir of Brit
ish Tommy always serves to remind
him of the part played in the great
est war in history.
II Is a curious fact, however, that
our Tommlcs are much more in
cl'ncd to call their girl babies by
French names than they are their
sons. Madeleine, Marie and WON
ne are becoming quite common,
Among other pretty French names
for girls are Colinettc. Hortense,
Nlnon, Jullennc and Celnc.
This war, by the way, has one pc
cuIiarity over others. and that is that
the number Of babies burdcned with
real war names, as in the Bocr war,
are remarkably few In the Bocr
war "Bullers" and "kitcheners"
were very ~ommon.--Pearson S
