THE MAN BEHIND THE PEN,
And th Comment of th Maa Who
Raeelred His Letter.
I knew it wns a mean letter whon I
wrote It, but afterwnrd I concluded
that I must hnve written a good deal
meaner than I knew. I wan counsel
fur a large manufacturing company.
One of tbelr customers, always an un
satisfactory mnn to deal with on ac
count of his constant fault finding and
objections to paying his bills on vari
ous absurd pretexts, Dually refused
point blank to settle a bill for some
15,000 on the ground that the goods
were not Just as ordered. The com
pany then Instructed me to write him
the worst letter that I could Indite,
threatening him with nil possible pain
and penalties, legal and otherwise, with
good measure of abuse thrown In, since
they had little hope that he would pay
and less desire for his custom In the
future. Accordingly I bent myself to
the task. I hope I'm an honest man,
but I can't help saying that that letter
was stinger. I suspect thnt It was
the meanest thing that ever went Into
a mall bag.
A few days later a messenger from
the manufacturing firm called and ask
ed me to step over to their place of
business, as there was a mnn there who
wished to meet me. Iam about 0 feet
4 Inches, and my weight averages 110
pounds.
When I reached the Arm's place, I
was ushered Into the prtvato office.
The first thing I saw, and about the
only thing visible, was a big man who
must have weighed fully 300 pounds.
"Mr. Rlnnk," said the president, "this
Is Mr. Dash, who wrote yon that let
ter." Mr. Blank arose, shutting off the
light from two windows. For a full
minute he stood looking down at me
with open mouth and bulging eyes.
Then he turned to tho others and with
an expression of mingled astonishment
and disgust on his face said:
"Well, smitten Ca?sarl If I had known
It was such a little, insignificant, saw
ed off cricket who wrote me that letter,
I never would have paid that bill!"
Harper's Magazine.
YOUR WATCH.
In laying aside a watch be sure that
It rests upon Its case.
A watch should be wound up every
day at the same hour.
Avoid putting It on a marble slab or
near anything excessively cold.
If suspended, the action of the bal
ance may cause oscillation, which will
Interfere with its going.
A sudden change of temperature, con
tracting the metal, may sometimes
cause the mainspring to break.
The cold also coagulates the oil, and
the pivots and wheels work less freely
and affect the regularity of the time
keeping. To keep your watch clean take care
that the case fits closely and see that
the watch pocket Is kept free from
fluff, which Is so often given off by
linings.
Avoid sudden jars and falls, for even
If It does not seem to affect It at the
moment, a watch will resent rough
handling by becoming gradually "out
of order" without apparent cause.
How Banana Trees Grow,
It Is a peculiar fact that but one
buuch of bunanas grows on a tree.
After the fruit has been cut the tree Is
then cut dowu to the ground, and from
the stump another tree sprouts which
bears another buuch the following
year. The greatest trouble of farmers
li to keep the farms clear of sprouts.
They shoot up from the roots of the
tree for a radius of ten feet and grow
like weeds.
As the fruit Is cut from the trees It
Is placed on the backs of llttlo pack
donkeys and transported In this way
to the coast One donkey can carry
from three to six bunches, according to
the size of the bunches and the dis
tance from the coast In the season at
Baracoa there are more than 3,000 don
keys that stretch along In a line for
miles, plodding toward the coast with
their loads of bananas.
Don't Dine Alone.
How many peoplo dine alone? The
restaurants all number solitary diners
among tbelr regular clientage. How
many thousands of people, men or wo
men, will eat a lone dinner or supper
tonight In the cities and towna and
hamlets of Christendom? The evil of
eating alono Is the subject of an ear
nest although cheerful warning from
the London Lancet. The hygienic val
ue of gregarious dining Is Insisted up
on. The necessity of taking food in
social fashion Is an Inherent racial sort
of thing, and those who go against It
for years usually have to pay for It
with some of the Ills of indigestion.
Breakfasting alone Is not bad for a
busy generation, but dining alone la
not habit to be long continued, in civ
ilisation or out of It, without disastrous
results.
The Wisdom ot Experience,
When I was 20, I thought I was 40;
When I was 80 I thought I was 50;
when I was 40 1 thought I was 25,
and when I was 50 I wondered If they
were going to bring Id the high chair
at the table and give me the bottle.

Professor, at a Dinner In Hla Honor.
A Btndr la Poker.
One Journalist who Is an expert In
practical psychology walked a couple
of squares with a member of the cabi
net trying to elicit on expression of
opinion on a certain matter of moment
Tho secretary's lips were i0 firmly
closed as the shells of a Illngham quo
Imug ot low water so far as the desired
"last word" was concerned or even a
hint of tho sltuntlon. He was not so
completely self contained, however,
that his actions and manner were In
lorutnblo. The reporter hazarded a
guess founded on his Impressions and
wired tho result to his poper. The next
day tho secretary met him and said:
"How did you get that Information,
Mr. ?"
"From you, sir," snld tho reporter,
smiling.
"From me, sir?" said tho secretary.
"I never said a word."
"That Is so," replied the correspond
ent, "but you acted It"
"Well, you were wrong In some
things, anyhow. Still, I think I'll hnve
to take a course of congressional poker
playing until I can disguise my
thoughts."
"Such people are the easiest of all to
read."
"And how do you do It?"
"Why, you read their hands by re
versing their expression. The man who
seems to bet on an ace full probably
holds a bobtail flush, and the disconso
late surveyor of a probable bobtail
fluBh is likely laying for you with the
ace full, and there you are. There Is
always some way to figure It out"

Development ot tho Hammer.
Mnns first tool was the uplifted hand
grasping a stone, and from this came,
after many years, tho hammer. As
heavier blows became necessary tho
hammer grew in size, until It was op
erated by machinery In the form of tho
tilt or helve hammer. When steam suc
ceeded water as a motive power, a
steam cylinder replaced tho tripping
cam, but the first half of tho past cen
tury had nearly expired before the orig
inal form of this tool was at all chang
ed by James Nasmyth's invention of
the upright steam hammer.
Since then the fulling weight of this
design of tool has gradually been In
creased from a few hundred pounds up
to 100 and even 125 tons, but excepting
the smaller sizes up to 25 tons It has
since 1SIX) been superseded by the hy
draulic press, which by its slow motion
produces a more thorough working of
the metal. Presses have grown until
tho capacity of 14,000 tons was reach
ed, requiring a 15,000 horsepower en
gine to drive It Such a tool, with Its
accompaniment of 200 ton electric
cranes for handling the work under
neath, Is capnble of forging Ingots over
75 luches in diameter and weighing
more tunn 250,000 pounds.
He Was Relieved.
The other day a person dropped down
In nil apoplectic fit Immediately In
front of a police station and was car
ried Inside. A momcut after a woman
forced her way in through tho crowd
gathered around the door, exclaiming:
"My husband I My poor husband!
Clear the way and let In the nlrl"
She then busied herself by taking
off the man's cravat and performing
other little olilces until a surgeon ar
rived, when the patient gradually re
covered his senses. On this the ser
geant in charge observed that It was
a happy relief for his distressed wife
as well as for himself.
"My wife!" exclaimed the man.
"Why, I am a bachelor!"
On seeking for the woman it was
found that she had disappeared and
with her the watch and purse of the
patient which she had adroitly ab
stracted under tho very eyes of the
police. Loudou Tit-Bits.
The Effect, ot Ammonia.
The effects of ammonia upon the
complexion are directly the opposite to
that of arsenic. The first symptom of
ammonia poisoning which appears
among those who work in ammonia
factories Is a discoloration of the skin
of the nose and the forehead. This
gradually extends over the face until
tho complexion has a stained, blotched
and unsightly appearance. With peo
ple who take ammonia into their sys
tems In smaller doses, as with their
water or food, these striking symptoms
do not appear so soon. The only effect
of the poison that Is visible for a time
is a general unwholesomeness and sal
lowness of the complexion.
A Tralr True Doe; Story.
Here is an Australian dog story from
the back blocks: A sheep dog had been
brought from a station Into a small
township and fretted after the sheep.
One day nAt a child was to be seen
about the place, and as evening came
the township became alarmed. Search
was made, and the juveniles were
found huddled up In the corner of a
paddock, where the dog had rounded
them up. He bad no sheep to look aft
er, so be took the children. The nar
rator of this lie guarantees It as a fact.

THE WILY WIDOW.
And the Vlnlta to Her ot Bnltors rtllee
and Giles.
The widow Is a resident of Brooklyn,
Two of ber friends are stockbrokers
In Wall street and fellow club mem
bers, but they had never spoken of her
to each other.
And the widow was wary. While
her mind was undecided, she encour
aged both and arranged that they call
on different occasions. But ono even
ing, unfortunately, the two suitors met
and tlio sltuntlon became embarrass
ing. Ulles, who hud entered first, be
lieved he had the right of possession.
Nlles was of opinion that tho earlier
ralicrshoiild take his leave first. There

At leiiKth, as the hour was growing
late, Nlles suggested that they depart
together and discuss a matter of In
terest to their club on their homeward
way. Olles, unable to find a real ex
cuse, agreed.
Together they boarded a car and to
gether reached the ferry for Manhattan
borough.
At this Juncture Nlles, somewhnt un
necessarily, It appeared to Giles, be
come engaged in a controversy with a
man who had Jostled him, but the op
portunity seemed heaven sent to Giles,
and lie embraced It to return the way
he had come. Ho had boen on tho

Professions Not Overcrowded.
There is a dearth of thoroughly train
ed men in all professions. The more
exacting the conditions the greater tho
need. The thoroughly trained man
nowadays must be a college man. Tho
universities are using every effort to
tralu men along special lines for defi
nite efficiency in something. Tho old
Idea of college education as general
culture Is passing away. Tho universi
ty takes men as they are and makes
the most out of what they can do. A
man today In America is foolish to bo
"self made" when better means are at
hand. It Is eqnnlly foolish to choose a
self taught man as agnlnst other men
who have worked with equal sest and
force and with much better advan
tages. Formerly a man of an executive turn,
a leader In business or politics, found
In a college education llttlo that could
help him. Now he finds everything.
In the future the college men will bo
the natural leaders in Industrial and
politlcul affairs. The reason Is that tho
men born to lead cannot afford to stay
out of college. Success.

Reading aloud Is recommended by
physicians as a benefit to persons af
fected with any chest complaint. Tho
recommendation Is made becauso In all
cases of lung trouble it Is important
for the sufferer to indulgo In exercise
by which tho chest Is in pnrt filled by
and emptied of air, for the exercise Is
strengthening to the throat lungs and
muscles of the chest .
Rending aloud can be practiced by
all and besides belnjr a curative act
can be a ploasuro and profit to both
reader and hearers. In this treatment
it is recommended that an overdose of
medicine be avoided, that the reading
be deliberate, without being allowed
to drag, thut the enunciation bo clear,
the body be held In an easy, unstrain
ed upright position, so that the chest
will have free play, and thut the
breathing be natural and as deep as
possible without undue effort.
