"What is there nbont n book nKi'nt or
porldler of nny kind 1 H o distaste
ful to thn ordinary ckizen of todiiyV"
laid Martin Colo. "Tlio efforts of these
peoplo to mtilto a living is consilient ions,
lind I niA poaitivo there is no work v.
the face of tho earth that is half m
wearisonio or fohI trying ns this on -thing
of canvassing hooks. sThere is tin
tBtisfaetion in it nnd not even n k"1

rmtsido of the regular lines of tr.ide.
Thoy prefer to hav thinK in their pro
per places books in n book store, candy
in a candy storo and tho liko throughout
tho lonjc list of earthly artieles that
we nse. Tlien they want tho stores close
at hand, so that they can rush out and
secure what they want, paying spot cmh
for it.
"These nre what people" term 4ho le
ritimate lines of trade, nnd thev nre.
Then when a peddler arrives, the mer
chant or tho ordinary citizen immediate
ly figures out that anything that must
be brought about to him to effect a :ilo
must not he good. It is outside the le
gitimate line, nnd if it were good It would
simply bo placed npon the market
through tho ordinary channels and left
for the public to conceive its merits. So,
then, I figure out that this dissatisfaction
with book agents and the like resolves it
self into the great law of order, which is
an innate desire in the heart of every
one. " St. Louis Globe-Democrat
I'lgs Feet nnd Terrapin.
A observing business man, who has
hail occasion to patronize at one time or
another nearly every restaurant in tho
purely commercial section of t'-e city,
has discovered an odd relationship be
tween two articles of diet which rarely
if ever occur singly upon n bill of fare.
"Yon can lie reasonably sure," he said
the other day, "that when you see 'liver
and bacon' set down among tho edibles
yon will not havo to look far to discover
that you can also obtaiu a 'chicken liver
omelet.' Perhaps this will explain," ho
added cynically, "why it is that so often
tho liver of the first dish appears in small
triangular pieces in the omelets.''
Tho gentleman might have transferred
his observances also to certain up town
restaurants which cater to tho "swell"
members of society. It's dollars to dough
nuts that in at least one-half of those,
which boast of their fine cooking, when
ever terrnpin n la Maryland or Philadel
phia or any other stylo is to be had, it
will requiro but little urging to obtain
fried pigs' feet.
Pigs' feet and diamond back terrapin
do not closely resemble ono another in
their natural stato, but what a differeneo
when they nro stewed, either separately
or togother, with Madeira wine and vari
ous concomitants! An epicure only can
detect tho subterfuge by the slightly
larger bones of tho pig's trotters. New
York Herald.
How to Nrlect Ciond Help.
One of the most astuto business men
in New York city, who has through his
own efforts built up nn enormous estab
lishment, and who gives employment to
hundreds of men, somo of them at very
large salaries, told mo he had very littlo
difficulty in finding tho right kind of
men for any department of his work. I
was surprised to loarn this and asked
him what was tho secret of his success.
Ho said:
"I have men to whom I pay as much
as $0,000 a year. I havo sometimes been
disappointed in my selection of helpers,
bnt as a rnlo I never fail to get the kind
of a man I want. My first rule is to so
lect for experienced help only the men
who have succeeded in what they have
undertaken.
"No matter how prepossessing a man
may be, how taking in appearance or in
apparent qualifications, I never engage
him," ho added, "if I find that ho has
made a failure in anything. On the oth
er hand, no matter how plain nnd un
prepossessing a man niuybe, if I learn
from his story that he lias been promoted
stop by. step; that he has always re
mained in a place until ho was advanocd,
and that every chango he made was a
change for the better, I engage him at
once. Such men never dissappoint mo."

Ice In the Government Bnlldlngi.
Ono gots a vivid notion of the magni
tude of tho departments from the vast
quantities of ice and coal which are re
quired to quench the thirst of the 28,000
clerks and keep thorn warm. The treas
ury consumes a ton and a half of ice
daily, taking an average the year round.
An equal quantity is used in the war,
state and navy building. But the de
partment of the interior is the great d
vourer of ice. Including the pension of
fice, it gobbles up froin five to six tons
every 24 hours.
The quantities utilized are variable.
Each department makes its own contract
for ice, bidB being advertised for annual
ly. No definite amount to be provided
is agreed upon. The contractor gets as
much for supplying all the frozen water
required, whatever it may be. All tho
departments, together with their branch-
i, consume 24,000 pounds every day,

Flay Better Than Gymnastic.
The pre-eminently recreative exercise
Is play. This natural gymnastics brings
with it an attraction that animates the
most indifferent and gives Inspiration to
the most phlegmatic. And what a con
trast there is between pupils exercising
in play and those upon whom syste
matic gymnastics are imposed between
English school children, for example, and
French! M. F. Lagrange in Popular
Science Monthly. .
Ilitrgaln Goods Factorial.
' Lynn, Mass., has a bargain goods fao'
fcory, which turns out cheap goods of
excellont appearance for the bargain
counters. The American bargain seeker
has adled for such things, and now if
shams are made to deceive him he must
not grumble. There are 10 of such bar
ga't goods manufaotorlea, and the bar
gain goods era is just now at its zenith.

A m nit of C'rnrin Rillrr.
One of tlif Interesting objects In tho
lower part of tho city is a piece of crude
Para rubber that weighs 1,200 pounds.
It resembles a rough casting of iron and
is in the shape of a bell. In the window
where it is exhibited is a shoe of rubber
like those worn by the Indian women of
Brazil. Its ornamentation is beautiful.
The toe is crimped, while on the instep
and tho quarters are flowers, the daisy
and the pansy. It seems to be a very
comfortahlo shoe. Leather is not un
known to the Indians who live in tho
rubber district, but rnblier with them
tnkos the place of wood, iron and cloth.
