said:

stock too far to keep furnishing these.

size either. Of course the collars nev

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.
A pearl belonging to her brooch had
got fastened In the lace of her collar.
He offered to disentangle it.
"That's a great trick of mine." he
said as he wrestled with it. "Separat
ing pearls from"—
"People?" she interrupted in a fright
"No," said he; "from laces."—New
l'ork Press.

Tickling the Debtors.
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."
