In attending to tiio salo of candy we
4CO a oo'.l deal of lifo in its brightest
And lightest ride. Faces aro made famil
iar to us by their owners coming in for
candy with clock work regularitjr.
Ladies, generally mothers, and gentle
men on their way home from busi
ness, are our mast constant customers,
with, of course, young ladies, the
belles who shop every day, and are
devoted to bonoons, or who come in
to have their pretty bonbonnieres re
filled daily. You can always tell when
a young man is buying for his lady
love. Uo wants a pretty basket or
box, and in large quantities, and is
particular in his request for the cer
tain kind ho. has ascertained she likes,
generally lemon drops, marshmallow's
or chocolates, though mixed butter
cups are new favorities. Some men
aro very fond of candy, and purchase
it for themselves, but only in little
quantities live cents or ten cents
worth a little package to cany in
their pockets. One young man came
in tho other day and asked us, absent
mindedly, for somo "whisky killers."
Wo looked cur amazement when he
was brought to himself blushing vio
lently at his unconscious question,
and told us ho meant "peppermint
drops." Still another amusing oc
currence was yesterday, when three
of tho raggedest, dirtiest looking
little specimens of humanity you
ever saw in the form of boj-s.
newsboys I think, came in and
solemnly asked for a "nickel's worth
of love lozenges." It was hard to con
trol myself sufficiently to serve the
Bj-ronio little ragamuffins, but they
marched out delighted with tho candj"
mottoes. A Clerl? in St, Louis Globe
Democrat, Fisherman Kettison's IiJ Hite.
J. Smith, proprietor of the Georgia
house, and I. B. Eeltison, from Ash
land, Neb., were fishing at the long
dock at Punta Gorda, when a fish got
on the lino held by Mr. Bettison that
fairly made his hair stand on end.
When ho felt him on tho line, the
other men being some distance away,
ho thought he would quietly draw his
game in and surprise tho others, but
the harder he pulled tho more the fish
went tho other way. Finally he yelled
for help, aud Smith says Bettison's
eyes wro. p.s big as saucers when he
came up. To make the exciting story
short, they held to tho -fish until lie
came to the top and then finished his
career with ft ball from a Winchester
rille. It was a monster "Jew" lish,
measuring C feet 4 inches in length,
weighing 293 pounds, and is one Of
largest lish of the kind caught in the
bay for some time. Savannah News.
A Noted Scientist.
The name of Alexander Dallas Bache
at once suggests t ije United States coast
survey. Born in Philadelphia, July
19, 1300, he died in Newport, Feb. 17,
1SGT. This distinguished scientist was

graduated from West Point with high
honors in 1825. Appointed a lieuten
ant of engineers, he became a - pro
fessor in the University of Pennsyl
vania and vast tho lirst president o!
Girard college, lie was tuo founder
of the Philadelphia High school, and
in his will left $12,000 to the Philadel
phia Academy of Sciences for the pro
motion of scientific experiments and
observations. Dr. Bat ho was appointed

coast survey in 183. Philadelphia

A Wise Boy,
There is a youngster of my acquain
tance a boy not yet 7 years old who
has figured out somo gastronomic wis
dom. At lunch yesterday the hungry
children sat down to smoking soup
and a custard pudding. After one or
two eager spoonfuls of the soup, Wiilie
pushed away his soup plate. "Now,
give me my pudding, mamma," "Dut,
Willie, don't you like your soup?"
"Like it? why, I love that kind of
soup." "Why don't you eat it then?"
"Eat the soup till i ain't hungry any
more, and don't want any pudding?
Why no. Give mo my pudding. If
I want anything more after that, why.
then I'll eat some soup, don't yousooV
Ha got tho pudding first. Chicago
