THE « GREAT RESIGNER.
■os an Accountant Takes Hie Taoatlon
Spells.
Living In a fashionable town within
commuting distance of New York is a
gentleman who invariably attracts
attention by his long hair. Strangers
always conclude that he Is nothing
less than a great lawyer or bank
president. When the more curious
ask his fellow-townsmen about him
they are told tho following story:
One day the gentleman, who is one
of the best accountants in the metrop
olis, stepped up to the president of
the bank by which he is employed and
said he had decided to resign, and that
the resignation must go into elfeet
immediately.
The accountant left that day and
the bank was obliged to get along as
best it could without him.
Ten days later the cashier was as
tonished on entering the bank to find
the accountant hard at work at his
old desk. The mathematician said
good morning, just as he had done 4
every day for years before he resigned,
bat offered no explanation.
The president and cashier decided to
let their strange acting employe keep
at his work and ask no questions.
Three months later the accountant
went into the president’s office again
and tendered his resignation. It waa
accepted and the man was absent for
a week or more. Then he suddenly
returned.
The same thing was repeated again
and again. Now it is a standing joke
in that bank that the accountant has
resigned. It is his way of taking a
vacation. He never stays away more
than two weeks.
The Odors and Color of Mowers.
Plants with white blossoms have a
larger proportion of fragrant species

yellow and blue; after which, and in
the same order, may be reckoned
violet, green, orange, brown and
black. The flowers of .spring are
white and highly fragrant; those of
summer are red and yellow and less
fragrant; those of autnmn and winter
are darker and with still leu per

Tl» Dlaadranter* «' Balar » Madloal
Missionary In China.
The women who go out aa medical
missionaries have a hard time of It, ac
cording to a writer In the Philadelphia
Times, aside from mere inconveniences
arising from living in such a country.
In prescribing medicines not only is
the fear of a future accusation of pois
oning ever present, but the possibility
that it may prove to be a reality. Thus
a bottle of liniment curing the vener
able grandmother of rheumatism may
be lent to a neighbor stricken with
small pox as an infallible remedy; or
the entire contents of a vial of tooth
ache medicine be administered In one
dose to a teething infant. Celestial rea
|pn that If a small portion Is of any
benefit the whole bottleful, taken at
once, multiplies Its usefulness In a cor
responding ratio. Therefore, if not pre
viously warned, experience soon teach
es the missionary to make It an Infal
lible rule never to dispense a poison
ous remedy or one which could do harm
if the entire quality were taken at once.
Liniments and toothache drops com
pounded of nonpoleonoua drugs may
not be highly potent, but they are at
least harmless. When It Is absolutely
necessary to administer a powerful
remedy several times or tor several
times In succession the doctor puts each
dose up in a separate vial, powder or
capsule, and leaving them at the dis
pensary with a trained American
nurse or other foreign helper, directs
that a servant or child of the patient
be sent there for one every three hours,
or three times a day, as the case may
require, otherwise it would all be taken
at onoe, or divided among ailing neigh
bors.
men we women doctors are oongea
to be ever on the alert to keep the na
tive* from stealing drugs from their
medicine chests and so run the risk of
being poisoned. Then, too, the curious
objection to privacy which prevails In
China and makes it unwise for foreign
ers, especially doctors, to insist upon
it for fear of being regarded with su
perstition. makes it necessary to con
duct all operations in semi-public man
ner and there is always the danger that
some of the spectators may objeot at a
critical point in the operation and thus
Imperil the pationt's life, which would
Indeed be unfortunate for the poor sur
geon. Anaesthetics are regarded with
suspicion and seldom used, but the
native stolidity to pain makes them al
most unnecessary. Altogether the Ufa
is not one to bo desired.
love at great altitude.
A lady Who Climbs Mount Bonier
Winds Dp by Marrying H« Onlda.
Henry Carter, the famous Mount
Rainer guide, has fallen in love under
romantic circumstances, and will be
married by Rev. William M. Jeffries,
the first preacher who delivered a ser
mon^on top of the mountain. There Is a
possibility that Carter will be married
on top of the mountain, the place where
he fell in love last Tuesday night, with
the thermometer registering 20 degrees
below zero. He is to marry Cora Beach
man, a school teacher, and the belle of
Lake Park, a suburb of Tacoma, says
the Globe-Democrat.
Miss Beachman, accompanied by Mr.
and Mrs. F. M. Groe of Eatonville, set
out Tuesday with Carter, the most
trusted of all the mountain guides, to
ascend Mount Ranter. At Gibraltar
rock, which corresponds to the “shoul
der” of the Matterhorn, 4,000 feet from
the summit, Mrs. Groe became ex
hausted. Miss Beachman declared her
Intention to reach the summit at all
hazards. Carter led the way, but soon
lost his ice ax, and in scaling difficult
passes they were compelled to rely
solely on their alpenstocks. They did
not reach the summit until < p. m., too
late to attempt the descent that night.
They had left Paradise Valley, below
the snow line, without wraps, and only
a lemon and one sandwich each in the
way of provisions. Carter selected a
sheltered Ice cave formed by jets of
steam from the crater, and there they
passed a sleepless night, discussing all
sorts of topics, and before they left the
summit, at 9 a. m. Wednesday, Mlsu
Beachman had promised to marry the
guide. The instant they left the steam
of the ice cave their clathes-were frozen
stiff, and they suffered great hardships
in descending. A rescue party organ
ized during the day, came to their re
lief late in the afternoon, after they had
been without food over twenty-four
%purs.
Bafoaed, Than Was Berry.
The cable was crowded and when a
passenger boarded it he was nearly up
set by the sudden starting ot the grip
ear and tread on the toe ot a man
•ending at the rear end.
*1 beg your pardon,” he said, very
pBtely; hut the man of the hurt toe
Scowled and In an undertone muttered
curses.
The Innocent offender again apolo
| glzed. “Yes, but that don’t help my toe
any;” and he growled some more in an
undertone.
Nearby passengers began to smile.
"I begged your pardon, didn’t IT"
said the other man.
"Yes, but my toes hurts Just the
same,” was the reply In an ugly tone.
Then the other man’s dander rose
and in very forcible language he said:
"Now, look here. I accidentally stepped
en your foot and I apologized for it. It
you say another word about It I will
give you this Instead of my foot (show
ing his doubled fist), and It will land
tight In your face.”
This warning was not taken, for he
continued to talk about the clumsiness
of some people. Suddenly the passen
gers were electrified by seeing a fist
shoot out, and the growler lay In the
street as the car passed on. Nobody
■aid anything, but some thofight if
wasn’t wise to^alk too much.

an invaluable chronicle of the happenings of the thirty days just
with pictures on every page of the men and
women who have made the history of the month.
Tbt Littrary World sayss “We are deeply
impressed from month to month with the value
of tha ‘Review or Reviews,’ which is a sort
of Eiffel Tower for the survey of the whole
field of periodical literature. And yet it has a mind and voice of its
own, and speaks out with decision and sense on all public topics of
the hour. It is a singular combination of the monthly and
the daily newspaper. It is daily in its freshness;
it is monthly in its method. It is the world
