American Gastronomical Delicacy Had Appealed to Him. | e i Recently a member of the Russian revolutionary party, who had been through all sorts of exciting vicissi- in his native country, was on a | sit to the United States. Wishing to be polite to him and talk on those subjects nearest the Russian's heart a gentleman who met him asked 21l sorts of questions about the Deuma, the Czar, dynamite, and everything else which he adjudged in- | teresting to the foreigmer. Then, when he could think of noth- | ing more about Russia, he turned the conversation in this direction: “I suppose that you find America a striking contrast to your own country —full of liberty and respect for every- | body’s rights. It must seem peculiar to you to note how little the govern- | ment interferes with citizens as they | go about their dailly work. And the absence of soldiers—that must strike you as strange after Russia. I feel sure that it must. Tell me, sir, what is it that you like best about Amep foa?” 1 The Russian’s eyes lighted up. “Waflles,” he repled. vi DINER KNEW WAITER'S TR!CKS.! Had No Intention of Paying for Oth- | er's Carelessness. } When the three men sat down the | leader of the trio began a minute in- | spection of the tablecloth.. Pressntly | he put his finger on several little | scorched spots. | “See this?” he sald to the waiter. | “Yes, sir.” | “Well,” said the man, “just bear In mind, won’t you, that these holes were here when we came in, and when we get through den’t tack a dollar onto our bill to pay for burned table linen.” | “That's all right” seid the walter. “Tll look out for that* The order having been given the eautious diner eiucidated his remarks still further. “That is a trick those fellows have,” he sald. “Somebody | burns the tablecloth with sparks from a cigar and gets away before the dam- age is discovered, and the next comer, if he happens to be & smoker, is blamed for his predecessor’s sins, and {8 charged with the cost of the linen. I have had to pay well for other peo- | ple’s carelessness, so nowadays I make | it a point to examime tablecloths at the beginning of 2 meal” 8plitting the Difference. When jurymen in Stony Guich disa- gree, there is usually some member whose influence, backed by his recog- nized “handiness” with a gun, carries i the day. “Some thought he'd ought to get $3,000 damage, and some thought | $4,000,” sald Bud Lewis, referring to a | | { | Pecent case, “but I persuaded 'em to | @omperm! i “Indeed!” sald the stranger, with a wary eye on Mr, Lewis’ gun, which he seemed to be fondHng In rather a | careless way. “What sort of compro- ‘ | | mise?” “I put it to "em, “Why not split the | difference and call it $500?° And when I'd brought my reason to bear on 'em;” | sald Bud, with a loving gaze at his weapon of defense, “they all come round to that compermise in no time.” Youths’' Companion. A Thirteenth Century Drink. Thirteenth century tastes in food had few limitations. Besides the “fowl of ‘Africa and the rare gadwit of Ionia” mentioned by Fltzstephen, gourmets in the time of Kinz John used to regale themselves am herons, cranes, erows, storks, cormorants and bitterns. Some would wash their meals down with wine, but the majority drank mead or metheglin. Mead; according to Holin- shed, was only the washing of the combs after the honey had been taken from them, and so poer a beverage that it had to be spiced, peppered or made paletable. with sweetbriar or thyme. But metheglin contained one bundredweight of homey to 24 gallens of water, and must have been much mere intoxicating than the strongest old 8le OLIRR Tasi ot s there was nc ! | designated place ! mand.

He stated further that there are fifty-seven concerns in Bridgeport which are manufacturing their owa electricity and that in New Haven there are about forty similar concerns.

Why Physicians | the hall One Guest, at Least, at Dinner Party Who Knew the Host. In a volume lately published in Lon- don, “Piccadilly to Pall Mall,” there is this queer anecdote of the vagaries of social life in the capital: Some years ago an eminent personage accepted, or suggested, a dinner with a certaln millionaire, at that time compara- tively unknown. The first guest to ar- rive, having explained to the butler that being unacquainted with his host he would walt till some one else came who could introduce him, lingered in The second was in the same predicament, as were the third, fourth, fifth, and other guests up to the ninth, who chanced to be “the eminent personage” himself. Upon the dilemma being explained to him, he cheerfully said: “Oh, come along with me. I will introduce you all—I know Him.” “How Lillie's clothes hang about her! Why, they don’t fit her at all!” “But think how much worse she would look if they dil fe.

To sleep without plenty of fresh alr is to take just so much poison into your system. It means that you breathe the same air over and over again, and then you wonder why you feel so heavy and languid in the morn- ing. No matter how cold the night, open your window as far as it will go. If you wrap yourself up properly you will not feel the cold. Wear a flannel gown and something over your head. The last thing before going to bed, fill a bottle with hot water, cork it tightly and place it in the bed. If you have plenty of bed coverings you will be as warm as possible all night.

GENUINE Dr. W. L. Leister, of Rogers, Ark., says : ““ As a practicing phy- sician I use Castoria and like it very much.” Dr. W. T. Seeley, of Amity, N.

Evarts, of Santa Vnez, Cal., says: ‘‘ After using your Castoria for children for years it annoys me greatly to have an ignorant druggist substitute some- thing else, especially to the pa- tient's disadvantage, asin this case. I enclose herewith the wrapper of the imitation.” Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo., says : ‘‘Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary prepa- rations, but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. I prescribe astoria in 1 tice be- 1 have found »: @ thor- for chil- dren’s compls Any physician who has raised a family, as I have, will join me in heartiest recom- mendation of Castoria.” N.

McCrann, of Omaha, Neb., says : ‘ As the father of thir- teen children I certainly know something about your great medi- cine and aside from my own family experience, I have, in my years of practice, found Castoria a popular and efficient remedy in almost every home.” Dr. Howard James, of New York, City, says : *“It is with great pleas- ure that I desire to testify to the medicinal virtue of your Castoria. I have used it with marked benefit in the case of my own daughter, and have obtained excellent results from its administration to other children in my practice.” . Clausen, of Philadel- ¥ Vs, says : “*The name that Jyour Castoria has made for itself in the tens of thousands of homes blessed by the presence of children, scarcely needs to be supplemented by the endorsement of the medical profession, but I, for one, most heartily endorse it and believe it an excellent remedy.” go, 111, says : “1 have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice and find it very satisfactory.” Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve- land, Ohlo, says : “ Your Castoria stands first in its class. In my thirty years of practice I can say I never have found anything that so filled the place.” Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich., says : I prescribe your Cas- toria extemsively as I have never found anything to equal it for chil- dren's troubles. I am aware that there are imitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher’s.” Dr. Channing H. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo., says: “I bave used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is & great consideratica in view of the fact that most medi- cines of this eharacter are obnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration.
