"The 'lost and found' columns of the
newspaper in renpoiilble fur a ratber
peculiar habit," said an observant citl- ,
Ben, according to the New Orleans
Times-Democrat, "and It produces a
rather singular mental condition. It
has caused a great many persons to
snake a rather close study of the side- ,
walks of the cltv. and no doubt manv . a,ld disposing of them
of them live in the constant hope of
picking up something very valuable.
They have all sorts of wild dreams
about finding' jewelry,- more or less val
uable, and big rolls of money and
things of that sort. I am not speaking
of the unhappy and extremely unfortu
nate class whose life Is spent In search
ing the sidewalks and the gutters for
whatever trifle they may pick up. I
have, in mind a different sort of people,
people who are more cultivated and
more refined, and whose minds have by
degrees bent Into the groove. Maybn
some of them have found something at
some time or other, and this has caused
them to search, more or less diligently,
the sidewalk as they rush along the
treet. I know of one case of this sort,
a young man who has been so influ
enced by the habit that he goes along
the street with his head down, often
passing his nearest and closest friends
without seeing them. He made the
statement to me a few days ago that
during the last year he had found six
silver dimes on the sidewalk, and he
had gradually drifted Into the habit of
searcHng the sidewalks with his eyes
as he passed along the streets. 'Be
sides,' be said, 'I am always reading
the lost and found column in the news
papers, and the thing has a sort of fas
cination for me. It has produced a
perpetual condition of mental excite
ment, aaid of course I get a great deal
of pleasure out of it.' Now, here is a
curious thing. Men for some time have
Indulged the foolish habit of counting
cracks in the sidewalks or telegraph
poles, and touching things with their
hands, but few of us have been aware
of the existence of a class of men who
are constantly trying to find something
as they brush along the street. When
we hare found men looking intently at
tbe sidewalk we have supposed that
they were counting cracks, or trying to
keep from stepping on cracks, or mak
ing some sort of curious study of the
sidewalk's topography, but Instead we
now learn that they are actually look
ing for wealth, trying to find some
thing that somebody else has lost.

Where Tbia Foreigner Gets Fuel fo
Hia Fire.
There is a value to everything, and
the Italian Is cognizant of the fact, al
though the value is small. He gathers
cinders, wood, rags, bottles, paper, rub
ber and leather shoes, and old tin cans,
all of which have been thrown away by
others. Sometimes two or more fam
ilies unite In making their collections
forming In a
small way a trust or co-operative indus
try. The coal and wood they utilize for
fuel in their hemes, and -turn the other
products of their labor into money in
the following way:
The old shoes and rubbers are sold to
n shoemaker, usually another Italian,
and bring from 5 to 25 cents a pair, the
prices varying according to their con
dition. The shoemaker repairs them
and disposes of them again as second
hand. The rags and paper are sold to the
wholesale junk denier, and usually
bring about 0 cents a hundred weight
for old paper and anywhere from 10
to 80 cents a hundred weight for rags.
The bottles are washed and disposed
of through the same agency. The price
of Imttles fluctuates, an average being
$1 a hundred; but the Italian seldom
sells on a "bear" market.
' The bones are sold 1o the fertilizer
factories, $2 a ton being paid.
The tin cans are sold to foundries,
.where the solder and tin are melted off
and the iron sheets are melted up and
sash weights made from them. Old
tomato cans mid fruit cans bring $:i a
ton, and It takes more than 4,000 of
these cans to make n ton.
There must be some money made In
this business, for an Italian residing in
New York city pays to that corporation
the sum of $.'10,000 a year for the privi
lege of picking tiie above-mentioned
commodities (trimming, they call it)
from the scows that bear the city's
ashes and garbage to the sea. Chris

MISSION OF THE CHEAP CIGAR.
Method in the Madneas of Selling: for
Absolutely Low Prices.
"So you are going to try to force us
retailers out of the business!" ex
claimed an irate little cigar man, bris
tling with indignation and addressing
the manager of one of a number of
cut-rate cigar stores.
"Nothing of the kind," replied the
manager, bustling about his work.
"And the tobacco trust has put you
up to this and Is footing the bills!"
was the cigar man's second explosion.
"Now, see here," said the manager,
taking the angry little man by the
buttonhole and leading him out of the
way of customers, "you don't under
stand the game. We're Increasing the
consumption of tobacco. We're build
ing up your business."
"Don't see !t," said the retailer,
"when you sell a standard 5-cent cigar
five for 12 cents."
"That jtint the way we're doing it,
replied the manager. "The man who
smokes two 5-oont cigars a day conies
In here and takes five for 12 cents ami
smokes them nil In a dav. A few
weeks of that, and he wants his five
cigars every day. He gets tired of
coming around here to look for bar
gains, and In a few weeks he begins to
stop at your stand, as he used to do,
but Instead of buying 10 cents' worth
of cigars, he leaves a quarter in your
cash register and carries away half a
dozen cigars. We've Increased your
trade 150 per cent."
"I hadn't looked at It that way," said
the retailer, calmlnn down.
"And here's another scheme of ours,"
continued the manager. "Hundreds of
smokers never treat themselves to a
10-ccnt cigar. We offer three 10-cent-
ers and three fivers for a quarter. The
smoker takes them and gets the taste
for the better cigar. When he comes
back to your shop he wants a 10-cent
elgar."
"By Jove! it's a great scheme," said
'.he elgar man, quite appeased New
Vork Times.
The Motion Prevailed
An old town official of the cily of
Macon, Ca., says In Short Stories that
during the night of the earthquake
disturbances of 1MSU the city council
was In session.
When the quake shook the clly hall
from basement to attic the council
men ran out, thinking the bouse would
topple over. Whereupon the wng who
who kept the minutes of the meeting
concluded his record with the follow
ing sentence:
"On motion of the clly hall, the
council adjourned."
Many Remarks that Are Entirely Su
perfluous at All Time.
A new society is proposed to have for
Its title "The Society for the Suppres
sion of Obvious Remarks." A list of
speeches is to be prepared which the so
ciety binds itself not to use, thus ele
vating the character of general conver
sation. Here arc some of the sped
mens of obvious remarks: "It is not
the actual degree of heat registered by
the thermometer which makes it so un
comfortable; it is the humidity in the
atmosphere." "I don't mind the
money; it's the principle of the tiling."
"One never understands the name
when one is introduced to a per
son." "If the water were tiltered it
would be Just as good as tbe water of
any city." "The trouble about going to
summer gardens is It takes you so long
to get home." "You can put on two
fresh collars a day and then never have
a clean one on."
These are statements over which no
one disputes and they may be increased
to an almost unlimited degree. The ob
ject to be gained in refraining from
them Is rather Indefinite except that
they waste time, but as everyone has
Immeasurable quantities of time to
waste, and no gain can be shown in
saving It, the work of the S. S. O. It.
society seems an idle expenditure of ef
fort. If everybody carried on a thought
ful conversation a state of mental ex
haustion would soon be brought about
where all conversations would cease,
and silence In company, as everyone
knows, Is more rasping on the nerves
than an ocean of commonplace re
marks. The balding of tongues is an
excellent deadener of thought and no
one should permit his thoughts to work
overtime if he desires to be happy.

Not a Chinese Word.
"It's a mistake to suppose that 'Joss'
is a Chinese word," says a retired
ship's carpenter. "I've traveled a good
bit In the orient In my time, and among
the odds and ends of Interesting infor
mation I picked up whs a knock-out
of the genuineness of 'Joss' as a Chi
nese word. Chinamen only know
'Joss' when they come In contact with
Europeans. A Chinese priest that I
became chummy with In Hankow told
me that there was no such word in
Chinese. He explained that the word
was a corruption of the Spanish word
'DIos' and had come Into use through
the missionaries. Many early mission
aries, he said, were Spanish priests,
and their pronunciation of 'DIos' was
speedily corrupled into 'Josh' by na
tive tongues and applied to the Chi
nese dlctlos. It's only on the Chinese
seaboard that the word Is understood
by Chinamen. In the Interior, the
priest told me, the celestials had no
knowledge of It."

in becoming less every doy, and in
summer the crinkly fabric Is scarcely

women wearing crepe veils nt any sea

to a large extent, replaced the crepe
