AN ACCOMMODATING DRIVER.
ITe W Alan ftnperlntrndent, So Ho Could

"They have a delightful way of being
accommodating in some parts of tho
south," said a gentleman whohnd trav
eled considerably in that section. "Of
oourso it wouldn't do anywhere elso in
tho world, bnt tho way thoso people for
get all about time In absolutely refresh
ing. "I was down south owe nnd had occa
sion not to patronize lmt to be patronized
by n little street car lino running from
L to L Junction. Tho length
of tho lino is half a mile and its equip
ment two cars, each with a sinplo mulo
attachment. Tho ofileial roster is eon
densed to tho nnnio of a single gentle
man wearing a suit of Confederate gray,
Who fills every position on tho lino from
superintendent to driver with perfect
satisfaction to his patrons, nnd I must
say Willi seeming sntisfactiini to himself.
In his capacity of driver bo was Vild
that 1 would like to go down to tho
Junction at a certain timo.
"In his capacity as stiper'-ndcnt I
Was introduced to him, and assuming
tho authority of bis highest position he
advised mo that he would wait for mo
near a certain corner. I was watching
for him, nnd alxmt 10 minutes before the
appointed time tho car stopped on the
corner designated. Tho driver set the
brako, bnt it was tho big hearted super
intendent who got down to play with
tho children by tho roadside until I
should arrive Ho greeted me cordially,
and wo started, with tho mule in a can
ter. "A man hailed tho car from a houso a
little farther on, and we came to a stop.
There wns a short conversation in loud
tones. Then the driver carefully wound
the lines around the brake and wont in
to the house. In abont five minutes he
reappeared, with a trunk on his shoul
der, having probably stopped to tie a
rope around it inside, the house. This
trunk he deposited on the front pint
form, and we were again going as fast
as the mule could travel.
"Arrived at the junction, the driver
was again transformed to the superin
tendent as he shook hands with me and
bade me goodby. I told him I had en
joyed my trip immensely, and that he
was the most accommodating man I had
ever met in the transportation service.
He promised to call on me in Chicago,
and I'll be glad to see him too. " Chi

"I suppose no professional 'globe trot
ter' is ever satisfied," said James T.'
Hard of New York, "without a sojourn
in Alexandria and a voyage of four or
five weeks up tho Nile. Tho river itself,
I must say, did nt first sadly; disappoint
me. Wo Americans are apt to bo rather
exacting in the matter of rivers, nat
urally enough, considering tho beauty
and grandeur of our own. When I saw
the strong stream in tho hot sunshine,
looking liko floating mud rather than
water, I hated to believe it tho Nilo of
my dreams. Beauty, majesty and pow
er, not utility, wore what I wanted to
see in tho historic river. But when the
sun went down and the moon gilded,
not silvered, tho stream, then it beenmo
indeed tho river of my imagination.
The unsightly banks, which by day wore
stoop walls of block mud, like huge un
baked brick, became, picturesque, and
even beautiful, with waving groves of
palm and fields of grain. "St. Louis

"WHAT ARE WE HERE FOR?"
Web Flanagan' (Inn Story of How Be
Vttered the Fninoni Remark.
"Flnnngan of Texas" is a name that
always brings up a famous question,
"What nro wo hero for?" Whether in
Now York, Chicago or San Francisco,
that namo on tho hotel reginter always
brings a crowd of people to seo the man
who originated one of tho most famous
phrases in American politics. Tho sen
tence has gone into history and becomo
a part of it. It was one of the memora
ble incidents of one of the most memo
rable conventions that ever assembled
in America tho Chicago national Ko
publicau convention which defeated
(irant and nominated liarlleld. Ever
sinco then somebody in every conven
tion, largo or small, lias arisen to ivsk,
"What nro wo hero for?" Web Flana
gan of Henderson, Husk comity, Tex.,
is tho man who said it lirst of all. To a
Writer for tho (lulvcstuu News Flana
gan told tho story of tho phrase. This
is tho way bo told it:
"It was in Chicago in 18S0. I was a
member from Texas in tho national con
vention. When the committeo on plat
form and resolutions reported, Barker of
Massachusetts offered to insert a plank
pledging the party to civil service ro
form. I nroso in my place nnd said:
'Mr. President, Texas has had quite
enough of civil service reform. Out of
1,31)0 ofllces in that stato 1,000 of them
are filled by Democrats. Wo believe
that to tho victors belong the spoils.
Every proposition of this sort conies
from states that are threatened with a
Mugwump invasion. Sir, tho boys in
the trenches are demanding recognition.
Party service entitles them to something
at the party's hands. They need the
ofllces, and, sir, what are we bete for
bnt for the ofllces?' Immediately the
delegates and the galleries yelled. They
shouted till thoy were hoarse, and it
was several minutes before the chairman
was finally ablo to restore order. The
next day the incident was in all of tho
papers, and from then till now it has
been traveling around the earth. I have
seen it in foreign papers and have heard
it time and again in national conven
tions sinco then. It was simply a forci
ble way I had of expressing myself. I
never had tho slightest idea that my
chief claim to fame should bo a chance
expression in tho confusion of a great
national body."
EDWIN BOOTH'S UNHAPPINESS.
To Bis Daughter Be Ray Ba Was Never
Really Happy.
A number of letters written by Edwin
Booth to bis daughter and intimato
friends are published in Tho Century.
Tho following olio to his daughter gives
an index to tho melancholy that was so
marked in his disposition:

Practical Chemistry.
On oe, when lecturing to his olass, a
certain learned professor thns delivered
himself:
"I would have yon observe, gentle
men, that ooaL when exposed to the ac

weight and heating properties. This
arises through the influence of the al'

"But, sir, how is it when a dog lies
near the coals?" interrupted one of his
hearers.
"Young gentleman, this is neither
the time nor the place to crack these
mall jokes of yours, " severely retorted
tne professor.
"I beg your pardon, sir, but that is
exaotlywhat my father thought and
aid when he found it necessary to leave
the stock of coal for a few nights in the
open air, and it was discovered that it
bad diminished to the alarming extent
of over 70 per oent He then oonsulted
me, as a student of chemistry, as to
what oonld be done to stay such loss,
and I suggested that a savage dog should
be procured and kept chained near the

then our ooals have not lost so much as

A REMARKABLE COMPLAINT.
The Tonng Man V intercom! It After a
I.exlrnrraphir Helped Itlm,
They wero sitting in tho parlor of a
west sido houso, nnd tho conversation
Was dragging somewhat. They had ex
hausted all tho available social topics,
had taken a dip into literature by criti
cising some of the latest novols, hud (lis
cussed tho summer resorts nnd the pros
pects for a good fall season, talked a bit
about tho t hunters, and tliero did not
teem to be much left.
After an emlmrtnHsing panso of five
minutes tho girl said: "Wo hnvo got
tho funniest cook. She says tho most
killing things."
"Yes?" put in the young man inter
estedly. "Yes, she is a crank about sickness.
Every dny sho has some now sickness.
As a matter of fact, sho is a great bux
om woman, strong and healthy as can
bo, but she imagines she has olio foot in
the grnve."
"Must keep her busy finding pymp
toms," said the young man.
"Indeed it does, andsomo of her com
plaints are very laughable. Why, the
other day sho came in and told me in
perfect seriousness that her bones wore
ossifying. "
The young man looked puzzled. He
laughed a little, thongh, nnd snid:
"What a remarkable complaint I I don't
suppose it was true, do you?' ' The young
woman's fnce took on a pained expres
sion. "I said she said her bones were
ossifying," sho remarked.
"So I understood. And I asked if it
was truo. "
The young woman passed her hand
wearily over her forehead. Sho looked
at the young man pityingly and said:
"I am afraid you do not yet understand
the drift of my romark. I snid the cook
came to mo nnd told me that her bones
were ossifying. "
The young man bit his mustache, "I
fully understood what yon Raid, Missa
Brown," ho replied. "I think, too, that
I gather the meaning of tho remark.
Still I do not suppose that, except in
rare instances, such things do occur."
Sho put both hands to her brow this
time, smiled n bit and abruptly changed
the conversation.
Half an hour later the young man
paused on his way to his room and hunt
ed up a dictionary. Ho turned nervous
ly to tho O's, found O's and ran his fin
ger down tho column until ho came to
"ossify." Then he threw his hands into
the air and shriekod, "Groat Scott, and
I didn't know that ossify means to turn
to bono I"
And ho hasn't called uu Miss Brown
since. Buffalo Express.

Slumber and a bweet Mouth.
A warm bath, a light lunch and a
clean mouth beforo retiring are good
things to take. They promote sleep and
a "clean" tongue, in tho morning. What
this lunch should bo tho consumer must
decide Tho juice of acouploof oranges,
half a grape fruit, a cup of tea with .
dry toast, a sandwich and gloss of ale, .
oup of hot bouillon, biscuit and a gloss
of sherry, crockors with milk nnd vichy,
or a bowl of bread and milk is the
choice of as many different people, all
healthy and handsome.
The best thing in the morning after a
cold plunge or sponge bath is a cup of
hot tea or ooffee with a little lemon
Juice. The earlier this draft is taken
the better. It should precede the break
fast by at least half an hour. This is
prime for the alimentary canal. It is a
oomfort to the stomach, and puts the
digestive organs in order. A oup of hot
milk is also prescribed, and even hot
water the first thing in the morning is
not bad. For anything bnt the abusive
cup of oold water the poor stomach will
be grateful. If an appetite for breakfast
is wanted, and the time permits, take a
walk to the corner, alone, inhaling aud
forcibly exhaling the air through the
nostrils. No $10 cure in therapeutics
can compare with this. Now York
