There is a certain banker and broker doing business not a hundred miles from the bank, says a London weekly, whose bealth for some time has oot been all that he could desire. Not long ago be was complaining to his brother, when the latter after a care- ful survey of his brother's counte- nance said: “What you need, old man, is plain country food. Come to my place io the country and we'll soon set you up. This rich food is proving too much for you. Take breakfast, for instance, All 1 have is two cups of coffee, a bir of steak with a baked potato, some light muffins or a stack of buttered toast, together with a bit of water- cress or lettuce. What do you have?" For a moment the city banker gazed in hearty admiration at his brother. “A cup of hot water and two slices of dry toast.” he replied soberly. “But. Jim, if you think a simple diet like yours will ‘set me up,’ why, I'm per- fectly willing to try it.” The Story of “Hard Hit.” “Mr. Orcbardson, if I thought that by killing you I could paint a picture like yours 1 would stab you to the heart.” Such was the remark made by Pellegrini, the famous caricaturist, to the Royal academician, Sir William Orchardson, when at a private view he first saw “Hard Hit,” the picture of the ruined gambler. “It was,” said the artist, “the greatest compliment I could have hia.” Curiously enough, —— —— ea The Hat Straw Crop. The greater part of the straw em- ployed for making summer hats comes from Italy. To obtain a suitable straw for this purpose the wheat is sown as thickly as possible In order that the growth of the plant may be impover- ished as well as to produce a thin stalk. The italian wheat blooms at the beginning of June and is pulled up by band by the roots when the grain is half developed. Should it be allowed to remain iu the ground a longer time the straw would become too brittle for the purpose for which it is grown. Uprooted straws to the number of about five dozen, the size of the com- pass of the two hands, are firmly tied together iu little sheaves and stowed away In barns. After that the straw is again spread out to catch the heavy summer dews and to bleach in the sun. When the product has been sufficiently bleached it is put into small bundles and classified. The last step is to cut it close above the first joint from the top. when it is again tied up in small bundles containing about sixty stalks each and is then ready for the market. Harper's Weekly.

Taste is curiously localized in the mouth. Put a lump of sugar on the | tip of your tongue and you will find it | distinctly sweet. Then try it halfway ; back on the tongue and you will find it tasteless. All sweet or aromatic substances, such as wine, sugar and coffee, can be properly appreciated by the front half of the tongue, a piece of | knowledge that every true connoisseur applies when he sips instead of taking | a mouthful. With most other sub- stances, however, the reverse is true. In these cases the tip of the tongue gerves only for touching—it is the back part that tastes. The sides of the mouth, too, are quite insensible to cer- tain substances not tasteiess. Put some salt or vinegar between the teeth | and the cheek and you will find them absolutely flavoriess.—London Stand- ard. Wrestling For Rent. In several cantons of Switzerland the custom prevails of holding wres- tling matches and other exhibitions of physical strength at their choral, gym- pastic and rifle festivals. The cham- pions taking part in these athletic sports belong to the most diverse ranks in the social scale. Thus at a recent festival at Grenchen, a little town in the canton of Soleure, a’ wealthy property owner and his ten- | ant, a carpenter, stepped into the are- | na to wrestle according to the rules of the art. There were to be four rounds, | or “falls.” The stake for each “fall” was one quarter's rent. After the car- penter had thrown his landlord four | times the victor's prize was awarded ' to him, and he accordingly found him- self entitled to live In his house rent . free for a whole year. | i A Henpecked Astrologer. : Lilly. the astrologer and alchemist, | could not see for himself sufficiently far into that future which he professed | to be able to scan sc clearly for others | to guard him against making a fool of| himself by marrying. He caught a! vixen, “of the temper of Mars.” to use | his own words, and the fact that she’ brought bim £3500 as dowry did not count for much in the way of compen- sation, seeing that “she and her rela-’ tions cost him £1,000.” Matrimonial Dyspepsia. i “Well. how do you like married life?” inquired the fricud. ! “Not at all.” replied the wan who bad married money and was suffering for it. “F'n a case of matrimonial dys- pepsia.” | “Matrimonial dyspepsia?” “Yes.
