MEMORIES OF r/:ARK TWAIN. Two Letters the Humorist Wrote to Horiry VVatterson. "Mark Twain—An Intimate Mem ory," is tin* title of Henry Wattersou's article aboßt his cousin as ii appears In the American Magazine. Mr VVat terson recites the following incident as being typical of Mark Twain's whim sical point of view: "His mind turned ever to the droll. Once in London I was living with my family nt 10.') Mount street. Between 103 and 102 there was the parochial workhouse—quite a long and imposing building. One evening, upon coming In from an outing, I found a letter he bad written on the sitting room table and left with his card. He spoke of tlie shoek he had received upon find ing that next to 102— presumably 103— was the workhouse. He had loved me. but had always feared that I would end by disgracing the family—be ing hanged, or something—but the 'work'us.' that was beyond him: he had not thought it would come to that. And so on through pages of horseplay, his relief on ascertaining the truth and learning his mistake, his regret at uot finding me at home, closing with a dinner invitation. Once at Ge neva. in Switzerland. I received a long, overflowing letter, full of buoyant odd ities. written from London. Two or three hours later came * telegram: 'Burn letter. BLot it from your mem ory. Susie Is dead.' " Susie was Mrs. Clemens. TURKISH WOMEN. They Are Curiously Fastidious In Soma of Their Ways. The habits of tbe Turkish women of Constantinople are wonderfully fastidi ous. For Instance, when tbey wash their hands at a tap from which water runs into a marble basin tbe fair ones will let tbe water run until a servant shuts it off, inasmuch as to do this themselves would render them "un clean." They cannot open or shut a door, as the handle would be unclean. One of these fastidious women was not long ago talking to a small niece who had just received a present of a doll from Paris. By and by the child laid the doll in tbe lady's lap. She was horrified and ordered the child to take it away. As tbe little girl would not move it and no servant was near and the lady would be defiled by touch ing a doll that hud been brought from abroad, the only resource left her was to jump up and let tbe dull fall. It broke in pieces. Another Turkish woman would not open a letter coming by post, but re quired a servant to break the seal and bold the missive near her that it might be read; also should her handkerchief fall to the ground it was immediately destroyed or given away, so that she might not again use it.—Exchange. Defoe and Savings Banks. Though Duncan of Duthwell was the founder of our first savings bank, the first suggestion came from Daniel De foe. When he found himself compelled to hide from the bailiffs in a small Bristol inn he turned his enforced leisure and financial failure to account by writing the "Essay on Projects." It deals with savings banks, friendly so cieties, insurance, academies and bank rupts. On all these subjects Defoe of fers from bis fertile brain suggestions that startle the reader by their modern ring. On bankrupts nnd savings banks Defoe naturally wrote with feeling During his stay in Bristol he was known as "the Sunday gentlemau," owing to his natural unwillingness to take the air except on that duy of the week which deprived bailiffs of their sting.—London Chronicle. A Cup of Sugar. A large china cup with a handle was shoved across the counter and a child's voice said. "Ma wants a cupful of sugar." The grocer filled tbe cup, weighed the sugar, poured it back into tbe cup and said, "Two cents." To a customer who expressed sur prise at his willingness to sell grocer ies in such small quantities be said: "Have to in this neighborhood. Most of these people live from meal to meal, which meaus that they buy things by measure instead of weight. Beckoned by the cupful, the spoonful or the pail ful, they know just how much of any thing they need. In order to satisfy both customers and the inspector of weights and measures we measure first to suit tbe trade, then weigh after ward."—New York Sun. His Trick.

John Barrett was only twenty-sever; years old when President Cleveland appointed him minister to Slam. The first important task which confronted the youthful envoy was to press a claim against the Siamese government for $1,000,000. Experienced ambassa dors warned him against using threats In obtaining the money. "Be cunning: avoid arrogance." they said. "That Is." responded Mr. Barrett, "you favor tickling with a straw to pricking with a bayonet" The statesmen nodded assent. When the yount minister bad finally succeeded In collecting the claim the ambassadors asked in astonishment "How did you accomplish it?" "By tickling." explained Barrett. "I had to tickle them almost to death, though, before they agreed to pay it." Quaint Remedies.
