Went Good Advice.
There lives in the city of Mow York a
man who has accumulated quite a for
tuno by simply advising people what to
do. There always will be a large num
ber of persons who are unable to rely on
their own judgment; Others come to a
conclusion with case- and certainty.
A young man linu accumulated a
thousand dollars, and was debating
whether he should buy a small candy
store with it, or whether he should lend
It on a mortgage. This latter ho knew
was the secure way; the other promised
great profits. In this perplexity he Baw
an advertisement, "Advice given to those
going Into business."
After stating his cose the counselor
said: "My foe will be $3 In advance."
When this was paid he asked! "Do you
understand the candy business?"
"Mo; I did not think It was necessary,
expect to supervise lt generally."
"Then you will lose all your money in
three months."
"You think I had better lend tho money
on the mortgage?"
"I do not say that, what Is your busi
ness; that Is, what do you perfectly un
derstand?" "I know the pickle business through
and through. I can make- pickles of all
kinds, but I do not like it"
"Never mind what you like. Qo and
get a small place and make pickles; go
from hotel to hotel, restaurant to restau
rant, and sell them. In ten years come
back and see tne; you will have $10,000
at least."
As the young man was going away he
was called back.
"Hero is a card. I want you to put it
where you can see it a hundred times a
day." These were the words on the
card: "Business is business. Men don't
do what they like, they do what they
can."
TUTS FASCINATING CARD.
The card had n strange fascination for
him; he read it with care as ho walked
along the street, As ho studied lt, now
light seemed to enter his mind.
lie found a dingy basement, and began
to arrange for Ids operations. Of course
vinegar must bo got, several barrels of
it; some was offered him at ten cents a
gallon, some more was shown at five
cents. "Which shall I taker Hethought
of the words on his oard. He seemed to
seo people testing his pickles, and, not
liking them, depart without buying.
"Thoy will know good vinegar," thought
he, and so he bought the honest stuff,
In a few days several tubs of materials
were ready, and lie knew he must mar
ket them. Now ho greatly dreaded to
face strange people and push Ills goods
upon their notice. He never had courage
when a boy, and now as a young man he
felt moro timid it seemed. But he
thought of the words of tho card, and
entered a restaurant. The evident man
ager was a blooming young woman, and
the picklo dealer was more afraid of
women than men. But "business is
business" repeated itself over and over in
his mind.
The answer to his statement was that
his pickles would be tried, and, if found
all right, would bo purchased.
'Glad I got that good vinegar,"
thought tho young man; and ho began to
feel that there was a certain power iu the
maxim his adviser had given. Ho began
to feel a courage he had never expected
in meeting peoplo nnd trying to sell his
goods to them.
Calling at a storo to get, if possible, an
order for pickles In bottles, he was quick-
x.nil rudely met with, "Don't wont to
see any 8ucliEtu2,., ..JNoticiijg tho utter
dismay on tho young man's iituu7iT.
merchant said, short and sharp: "Don't
you know enough of business to put up
your goods attractively?'
As lie retreated, rutlled and disheart
ened, the maxim repeated itself over and
over with this additional sentenco: "It
is business to put up goods attractively,"
He sought out a lithographer and had
some handsomely colored labels printed.
They will buy tho bottles," said the
friend, "just for the picture you have on
them."
APPRECIATED ADVICE.
When he had gained sufficient courage
he again sought out the merchant who
had rebuffed him. "I have corue to make
you a present of a bottle of fine plokles."
"Why do you make me a present of
them?"
"Because you gave me advice that was
worth a great deal."
The morning of one Fourth ot July
came, and he pondered whether to go to
his store or not. All at once he thought,
people going on picnics will want pickles.
It was the magic- words on tho little card
that ran through his mind. He found,
as he had thought, a large number of
buyers waiting for him.
Tho little card was consulted in all
sorts ot weather. If a man made a pro
position to him ot any kind, nnd he was
in doubt, ho would go and look at the
words, though he knew them by heart
already. One day a cheese merchant
came to persuade him to buy his stock.
"Peoplo," said he, "who buy plokles
always buy cheese; you will do a big
trade. H was a temptation, lie went
and looked at the words and Btudied
them intently, trying to think out their
application to the caso in hand. "Men
do what they can," he reflected. - "I
would like to sell cheese, but I know I
can sell pipkles;" then he returned. Now
he was resolute and firm, although by
nature cosily bent and swayed by the
words ot others.
"Business is business," he said. "I am
In the pickle business; It I cannot make
money in this I shall quit and go into
something else; but I shall not havo two
kinds on my hands."
When the ten years were up of course
he had the $10,000, and more, ' too.

INTERVIEWED MARY ANDERSON.
Hew a Reporter Played the Iart of a Bell
Uuy and Scored a I lent.
Among the well known men about
town In Brooklyn Is Frank Cooper, who
at one time promised to be Bartley Camp
bell's right bower. Mr. Cooper was for
merly a Chicago newspaper reporter,
and lt was while acting in that capacity
that ho had a very singular adventure.
At tho time Mr. Cooper was very young
and very ambitious to shine in his pro
fession, and when Mary Anderson, who
was then the craze of the theatrical
world, reached town, ho thought he saw
his chanco to ascend the first few rungs
of tho ladder of famo. Ho would inter
view tho noted actress.
This decision was reached in an instant,
but many days passed before tho project
was put into execution. Miss Anderson s
stepfather, Dr. Hamilton Urlflln, was
keeping his precious charge far from the
Interviewer in thoso days. Mr. Cooper
finally decided to apply for the honorable
position of bell boy in the hotel at wliioh
the Anderson party stopped. "His youth
ful appearanoe helped him and he soon
donned the appropriate uniform. Then
he lay In wait for a ring from Miss Ander
son's room. For Over twelve hours he
dashed about on errands and carried
pitchers of loo water and glasses filled
with something stronger beforo Miss
Anderson made up her mind that she
wanted anything. Then tho littlo flap
covering the number of her room dropped
with a cllok. Cooper had his eye on lt,
and almost before tho clerk could cry
"Front! ho was at tho desk.
"Number So and Sol" said tho clerk,
quick."
Tho messenger needed no urging, but
flew up the stairs. His magnet wanted a
scuttlo of coal and down Cooper rushed.
Tho next minute he was knocking at Miss
Anderson's door with ono hand and hold
ing the bucket witli tho other. Once In
stdo ho made for tho open grate, but in
his nervousness he spilled most of tho
coal on the carpet. Then ho sat down in
tho midst of the ruin he had wrought and
looking up found tho actress standing
over him.
"What do you think of the future of
the stage?" burst from his lips.
Miss Anderson was impressed with the
humorous side of tho situation at once
and began laughing. This reassured the
disguised reporter, and in a few minutes
he was carrying on a discussion with the
actress on matters pertaining to her art,
This lasted for some time, Mi3s Ander
son expressing great surprise at the
knowledge displayed by a bell boy, nnd
Cooper got an interview that all the old
hands in town hnd despaired of being
ablo to procure. How ho got out of the
room, ho says, he never knew, but when
he reached the office he threw up his job
and rushed for his desk in the city de
partment of a local paper. Tho next day
his Interview and a description of the
scene appeared. It was the talk of the
hour. It was copied far and wide, and
tho author was assured that his future
would be a bright one.
QThe next day he paid for his temerity.
His chief, tho late Samuel Medill, a
brother of the present owner of the' pa
per in question, was so tickled at the
"beat" he had obtained that he insisted
that Cooper should meet Dr. Griffin. So
that night he took the youthful imposter
down to the hotel, anil, sending for Dr.
Griffin, formally presented him. For a
full minute Dr. Griffin looked tho re
porter straight in the eye, and then,
drawing back his hand, struck him in
the face. Tho blow was a hard one, and
Cooper reeled and would havo fallen to
the floor had not Mr. Medill caught him.
Before anything could bo dono Dr. Grif
fin hnd turned nnd left the room, and
Mr. Cooper nover saw him ngaln. Now

LIFE IN FAR AWAY TIBET.
Thlne la Tliat Strange Zjind as Kepre
eented by the litettt Kxplorer.
"The tiaoym) of Tibet have the funniest
Ursy of making tea you ever heard of,"
said LJeut. Kockhlll, that far away ooun
try's most recent explorer. "To begin
with, the tea they use comes from west
ern China In the shape of bricks, which
are pressed Into such convenient shape
for parrying overland. All sorts of teas
are made into bricks for purposes of
transportation across Asia, it being very
well understood by connoisseurs in the
herb that a sea trip spoils it. But the
tea Imported into Tibet is of very poor
quality as a rule. There is in it as much
weight of twigs as of leaves.
"Having pounded a portion of the
brick tea in some sort of mortar, the
Tibetan housewife puts it in a largo cop
per vessel and there permits it to boil
over a fire made from dry manure. The
resulting solution she pours into a queer
looking wooden churn through a coarse
willow basket that serves as a strainer,
To the liquid in the churn, before pro
ceeding further, she adds a portion of
butter and some salt. The mixture is
then churned up In ordinary fashion,
and, when it is thoroughly mixed, is
poured into a tenpot of bronze. From
tho teapot it is dispensed into the little
cup shaped vessels which each Tibetan
carries with him or her.
"The cup shaped vessel I refer to is
usually of wood, sometimes lined with
silver. Tibetans employ it not only as
their sole drinking uteusil, but also as a
dish for solid food. What they consume
mainly as a substantial diet is parched
barley. When a gentleman of Tibet feels
hungry he sits down and, taking from
leather pouch a portion of barley, he
mixes a littlo water with it, and, stirring
it up Into a dough, eats it In that shape,
Thus hunger is satisfied, and he goes on
his way rejoicing. In what we call the
pleasures ot tho table the Tibetan takes
no stoclc whatever, Tuero never was
typical Asiatio yet who cared anything
about amusement In the ordinary sense
of the word. He doesn't goto the theatre
there Is no such institution in the land
of the lamas. Nor does he indulge in any
other rational enjoyment of civilisation,
though he does not scorn what might be
called the primary vices.
"Tibet Is a very cold country, but its
Inhabitants do not warm themselves by
the consumption of fuel. When the
weather is chilly thoy simply put on more
clothes in proportion as the mercury
might fall, if there was a thermometer to
register the temperature by. Their gar
ments consist mainly for each individual
of a voluminous cloak, with sleeves and
a high collar, under which a shirt is
sometimes worn. Boots, with soles of
raw hide nnd uppers pf cloth and cotton
are ruade fr then? In China. For rainy
dava a circular cfcne of felt is proyided.
"The gun used by a Tibetan has a long
fork attached to it, which is stuck in the
ground for uso as a rest for the weapon
Naturally tho deadly instrument is of
primitive pattern, Intended to be set off
with a pruning, and the native wears at
tached to his belt a numlier of little
brass cones, each pf them containing an
exact load of gunpowder. Thoso people
of the country who live on the great ele
vated plains or steppes dwell in black
tents; but the villagers reside usually lu
two story Btone houses, the lower story
peng given up to a stable for the cattle,
Not all of Tibet, as Is popularly supposed,
Is .actually subject to China. The coun
try is divided" up, politically speaking
into many tribes, and not a few pf these
lrlbaB are governed hv ablefu who owe
uo allegiance to anybody not even to
the Chinese emperor." Washington
