Willed Away the Laundry. * When a perfectly strange woman came for the soiled clothes the mis- tress of the house came to the conclu- sion that her own laundress had sim- ply employed a new messenger and made no comment on the circum- stances. But when two weeks had gone by and still the old laundress, known as Susan, no last name having been men- tioned, did not appear the mistress of the house felt that she would be lack- ing in her duty if she did not make some inquiry about her. “Where s Susan?” she asked the tall and bony structure who came for the clothes. “She has gone .to Pennsylvania to live, yessum,” returned this person, with composure. “She went to Penn- sylvanla some time ago, -an’ she lef’ goodby fer yuh, but & long es yuh didn’t seem tuh notis I didn't,say nuffin’.” “But why didn’t she come and tell me and allow me to make some ar- rangements about my laundry?’ asked Susan’s ex-mistress. “Well, she lef’ yo' clothes tuh meh. She made a-will an” lef’ dem clothes tuh meh. Wese allus been good frien’s, and 80 W'en ghe lef’ she say I may wash yo' clothes long ez I wush tuh, an’ dere wuz 2o use worryin’ yuh ‘bout it, now was dere?” To which moderate and sensible ques- tion the mistress of the house could only remain speechless. — Baltimore News. Satisfied Her Curiosity. ' A certain southside lady has come to the conclusion that curiosity can no longer be indulged in with any degree of safety. One night she entertained a group of friends and at the moment of departure, when conversation al- ways lags a trifle, her eye fell idly on a package carried by one of the men. “What is 1t you have there?’ she asked, with hardly a thought of what she was saying. he’s gomg to be senrchod, I feel that all of us should be subjected to the same indignity.” “Oh, 1,” commenced the hostess, her face flushing—*“I give you my word that'— “I can prove the ownership of this ‘watch,” cried one man. “This was my mother’s ring,” ex- plained another. And so it went down the line until the laugh came just in time to save the life of the hostess. Hereafter one of her guests can walk off with the grand piano and be free from remark.—Kansas City In- dependent. Worth the Differénce. A big jobber sent an aspiring young man on the road to open up a new ter- ritory where a new rallroad was golng through.. All the towns belng new, there were no hotel accommodations, and it was necessary for the salesman te secure meals and lodging at restau- rants, etc., where the price was 25 cents per.meal. . On looking over the expense account the manager noticed all meals charged at 50 cents. “Leok here, Charlie; I see you have charged us 50 cents per meal on your trip, .and I am reliably. informed that it 18 tmpossible to get a meéal for more than 25 cents In your entire territory. How_ about 1t?” “Well,” said the salesman, “you are right. It did cost me but 25 cents per meal, but I tell you, sir, it's worth the other 25 to eat those meals.”—New York:Times. How Tin Foil Is Made. Tin foil, which is extensively used for ‘wrapping tobacco, certain food prod- ucts and other articles of commerce, is a'combination of fead with a thin coat ing ~of tin oh each side.

' The lad's mother, In fear lest he should commit some breach of etiquette, gave him' repeated dlrections as to what he should and should not do. Upon his return from the great occa. sfon the mother’s first question was, “Harold, did you get along at the ta. ble all right ?"* “Oh, yes, mamma, well enough.” “A.re you sure you didn’t do anything that was not perfectly polite and gen- tlemanly ?” - “Why, no—nothing to speak of.” “Then something did happen. What was 1t?” “But I fixed it all right, mamma.” “Tell me at once.” “Why, I got along pretty well antil the meat came, but while I was trylng to cut mine lt slipped off on to the floor. But I made it all right” “What did you do?* “Oh, I just sald sort of carelessly, ‘That’s always the way with tough meat.” "-—Yonth'u Companion. Accidental Success. “In lterature,” said a publisher, “popular success frequently comes by accident. A remarkable case was that of J. H. Shorthouse. This man, a poor chemist, spent some years writing a book called ‘John Inglesant.’ But tlie publishers would have none of ‘John Inglesant,’ and finally Mr. Shorthouse printed 100 copies at his own ex- pense. “Only torty of these copies sold, one purchaser being a photographer. The photographer took Mr. Gladstone’s plcture some weeks later, and the old man chose a studious pose, sitting witl & volume in his hand. He bent it absorption over the work, which hap- pened accidentally to be ‘John Ingle- sant, and in the thousands of copies of the photograph that were sold by accident the book’s nrame was plainly to be made out. “Mr. Gladstone was regarded as a great critic, and the people thought he desired to recommend ‘John Ingle- sant’ What was the result? Within the year 3€0,000 copies of ‘John In- glesant’ had been sold, and Shorthouse was a made man.” Two Tall Ones. i “Eagles and hyenas, if they are starving, will eat themselves,” said a nature fakir. “Oh, of course.” “It's the truth. Pliny mentions it In his. natural history, and I have proved it by experiment. I starved an eagle three days, and he began to tear chunks. out of his thigh and eat |’ them. The thing was so sickening to we that T only permitted it to go on a day. I got two good photographs of it for my last book, then I restored the eagle’s ratlons again.. The poor fellow had made a hole in his thigh 88 big as your fist, and to this day he walks lame. “And the hyena? The hyena was worse still. At first he was obstinate and refused to touch himself; but one night I heard angry growls from his cage and, going.down with a_lantern, I found him eating his hind leg. He had made great progress. He -had got away with about three pounds. I believe if I hadn’t come down in ‘Headaches: Biliousness. ; 1 ‘Biliousness. ans’t;g-flon. Constipation. . - - Constipation. o S gg;:s PI:lld. Ayer’s Pills.
