Too Bad! Too Badl

This is the story told by New Or
leans gentleman attending the for
eign trade convention: A steamship
arriving from French port had an
enterprising officer who saw fine OPP
portunity to profit through the dry
condition Of the United States. He
put in large stock of liquor and
when the vessel arrived in New Or
leans had no trouble in getting in
touch with purchasers. They agreed
to pay on delivery.
The price was $1,000 The liquor
was passed over the ships side in
the middle of the night on to a small
vessel alongside and the $1,000 given
to the officer. The next day the seller
went to the bank to buy French ex-
changes. A few minutes later he was
doing two things at one tlme-tear-
ing his hair and swearing like troop
er. His $4,000 was Confederate
money,-Philadelphia Public Ledger.

A Love Letter 5000 Years Old.

Archaeologists are continually max

the vanished cities OF Mesopotamia.
IL is not so long ago that the remark

was found among the ruins OF Baby
Ion inscribed on large irregular STEELE.
mat carries us back two thousand
years before Christ, but the recent
discovery at Tello, Nippur and Ur in
Chaltea of clay tablets nearly a thous-
and years older carries us back 10
what We consider as the dawn Of civ
ilization.
We find that the people who dwelt
along the Tigris and Euphrates so long
ago were both civilized and cultivated
and wrote letters much like those we
write today. Among the discoveries is
this delightful little letter scratched bv
young man on clay tablet and sent
TO his beloved:
10 Bioea, thus says Gimil Marduk
may the gods Shamash and Marduk
permit thee TO live forever for my sake.
| write TO inquire concerning thy
health. Tell me how thou art. | went
TO Babylon but did not see thee. was
greatly disappointed. Send the reason
for thy leaving, that may be happy.
Do come in the month Marchesvan.
Keep we'll always for my sake"
Does it not seem strange that this
eager inquiry of a lover after the
health of girl who has been dead for
fifty centuries perhaps should so long
have survived both the man and the
maid and come to be seen and read to-
day by men who live thousands OF
miles beyond the limit of the little
world they knew

Phrases Interpreted.

The most truthful Of us do not al
ways say exactly what we mean There
are, says the Independent, phrases and
idioms that are used in a purely sym
bolical sense, although we use them
so often as to he unaware of the fact.
For example:
1.-TWO or three" always means at
least three, or three and upward.
"One or two" seldom if ever means
one
"ln minute" means anywhere from
five TO fifty minutes.
THAT reminds me of a story
means: "Now you keep quiet while |
tell my Joke"
81 hold no brief for" means: 81
am now going to defend"
"While do not wish to appear crit
ical" means: "But | am going to have
my say out anyhow"
"Of course it's no business Of mine
means 81 am simply devoured with
curiosity"
"My conduct calls for no apology
and needs no explanation" is the
usual introduction for an apology or
an explanation.
"No one could possibly have mis-
taken my meaning" is what we say
when some one has mistaken il.

BY developing new methods of e,

lists of the United States Department
of Agricultural have greatly reduced
the cost of making this chemical,
which is used in the manufacture of
soluble and inaolublc resins for stains,
varnishes, insulating material, printing
plates, and many other articles. Fur
fural has been made commercially
from oat huls and has been selling
for about so cents pound, but when
made from cobs it is estimated that
it can be manufactured at a cost of
about 10 cents a pound. Cobs give
the greatest yield Of furfural of any
of the common agricultural materials
that contain it.
