oven wnen mo circumstances seem to

an experienced detective of Springfield,
Ohio.
"Give us the story. Uncle John."
"Not long ago there resided in
Franklin County a wealthy old maid,
Miss Sabina Smith. By inheritance she
was tho possessor of a largo farm, on
which was an old-fashioned, though
comfortable, dwelling-house. She was
reputed to have a good, squaro bank
account."
Hriur nlil ?o aim?"
'Well, on tho shady side of seventy,
but she had a weakness like all old
maids, not for kittens, poodles, or ca
naries, but for children. She had
raised several orphan girls, who are now
well sottled in life. In 18G5, sho adopted
a six-year-old, black-eyed girl, bright
as a button, named Mollie McCann,
whoso father had fallen in battle, fight
ing for his Hag and country, while her
mother, crazed with grief, pined anil
faded away. Mollio soon learned to
love her new mother, and from a prat
tling maid in short clothes and pinafores
.she soon bloomed forth into a mishine"
school-girl, and at eighteen was the
belle of every rustic gathering tho
pretty Miss Mollie McCann, over whom
tho boys raved and tho girls envied.
To all her admirers she turned a deaf
car, and, with a pretty toss of the head,
and merry twinkle of her roguish eye.
bade them be off and not bother her."
"Miss Smith was sensible; knew
that Mollie would probably niarrynnil
have a home of her own somo day, so
sho neither discouraged her fondness
for society nor harped upon the
miseries of wedded life in tho maiden's
car, but when she came back from the
State Fair at Columbus in 1878, and told
her adopted mother about the youn"
gentleman she had met. his attentions
and good qualities. Miss Smith was not
pleased, nor did she hesitate to frown
her displeasure and advise her ward to
turn a willing ear to tho many suitors
of the neighborhood instead of seeking
in far-off fields that which was nearer
home.
"But Mollie was, liko many another,
struck on a traveling man, and she
carried on a secret correspondence
with him through a lady friend for a
long time, until at last they wore en
gaged. "Miss Smith and Mollio were tho
sole occupants of the house. Tho bod
rooms were four in number, two of
which were used as spare rooms, one
occupied by Miss Smith and containing
two beds, Mollie occupying one. Miss
Smith the other. The fourth bedroom
was called Mollie1 s, but was onlv used
by her when a lady friend was visiting
her. Jn ono of these spare bedrooms
was an old-fashioned bureau and book
case combined, tho top drawer of
which could be converted into a desk.
The back part of this drawer was fitted
up with small drawers. Ono of those
small drawers had from time immemo
rial been used as a money-drawer. In
the summer of 1879 tho sum of $355
was missed from the drawer; in the
summer of 1880 $200 mysteriously dis
appeared, together with a quantity of
old gold coins which had been in the
family for over a century. On the 20th
day of last May Miss Smith loaned to a
neighbor $500, giving him her check
and he signing a note in her favor.
Sickness prevented his presenting tho
chock at tho bank at Columbus, and,
learning that Miss Smith was going to
that city on the 30th, ho requested her
to get it cashed. She did so, and re
turned with Mollie about dark on that
day, having the money all in $100-bills.
" The houso was all securely locked
down stairs, and Miss Smith deposited
the live hundred dollars in tho secretary
drawer, closed the drawer, locking it
and placing the key in the bureau
drawer beneath. She then locked the
room containing the bureau and placed
tho key under some quilts that, lay in a
wardrobe in her bedroom. Before re
tiring she locked her bedroom door and
she and Mollie retired for the night in
separate beds in the same room. The
next morning, April 1st, the neighbor
who had borrowed the money, having
a long journey to perform, during
which he expected to make a payment
on some land purchased, called as earlv
as five o'clock, before Miss Smith and
Mollio had arisen.
"Awakening Miss Smith, she took
her Lev from the wardrobe, unlocked
thebedroom, then, taking the bureau
drawer key from the under drawer of
the secretary, opened this to n'nd the
money jgone. She went down stairs;
everything was locked and bolted as
she had left it the night before.
" Who took that money?"
"That was the question that con
fronted me. There were no signs of a
burglary; no lock forced; windows and
doors all right. No one else in the
house but Miss Smith and Mollie. Of
course. I at once examined the girl.
She talked Ireely, said she always had
a presentiment that the money 'would
be stolen in tact, naa a presentiment
that night but feared to tell the old
lady for fear of alarming her. I soon
learned that Mollie had a key which
fitted the bedroom containing the bu
reau, hence my. suspicions were
strengthened that Jiollie had arisen in
the night, either unlocked the door
with her own key or taken the one in
the wardrobe, and, securing the money.

" I didn't take Miss Smith's money;
no, I did not,' she convulsively ex
claimed between her sobs.
" Miss Smith would not allow me to
take her to jail, where I reasoned con
finement would soon compel her to con
fess. "My work, however was but partial
ly done, for the gold coins had not
turned up.
"I determined that those coins must
be in the house, and resolved upon a
thorough search from cellar to garret.
The cellar disclosed nothing, and at
last I stumbled upon a small stairway
leading to the garret, the door to which
was a common trap-door, securely fas
tened by a padlock, to which was at
tached three links of a chain.

Smith, to that trap door uo in the at

I speedily got the door open and saw
largo footprints in the (lust. By the
aid of a lamp I followed the course of
the tracks over the boards which lay
across the shaky rafters to the furthest
part of the garret, where over an old
cross-beam, hung a pair of old-fash
ioned saddle-bags. Tho dust on the
bags had been recently disturbed. In
ono of the po -kets I found the live $100
bills which disappeared on the night of
tho 30th of May, the $:155 th.it was
missed in tho summer of 1879. the $290
that was lost in 1880, and, better than
all. tho r.iro old gold coins upon which
Miss Smith set si'u-h store as an heir
loom. I had found the money, but I
found $1,200 too much. Tho mystery
deepened. I resolved upon ono tiling,
and that was that Mollie must know
something about the monev that was
hid under the carpet beneath her bed.
I talked kindly to her, told her that
Miss Smith's money had been found,
and urged her to tell me how the $1,200
came under the carpet of her bed.
"You will not believe me if I tell
you. but if Miss Smith will go out I will
explain. I put that money thcro; it
was my lover's. He had saved it out
of his w;agcs and given it to mo to
keep. I destroyed his letters, for fear
my aunt would find it out.' There's
the story."
" 'But how did the old lady's money
get into tho garret?'
" 'buo earned it there herself. She
was a somnambulist and walked in her
sleep.'
" How did you prove it, Mr. Morris?
Dm the old lady lot you occupy tho bed
room anil catch her?"
Oh, no. I got tho old lady to tako
off her .shoes and stockings and place
her No. 0 foot down on a .sheet of white
paper. With a lead pencil I marked
out her foot on that sheet of paper.
With a pair of scissors I carefully cut
tho exact shape of the old ladyVfoot,
which fitted exactly in the tracks in tho
dust on tho garret boards. Besides
that Mollio's foot was much smaller,
sho only wearing a No. 2V shoe, and
would not fit the track. I ako. on
careful examination, found traces of
cobwebs in tho frill of the old lady's
night-cap, while Mollie wore no niglit
cap. So you see I proved it by both
ends the old lady's head and by her
feet. I explained all to tho satisfaction
of the old lady, she paid me my money,
and I predict a wedding soon at tho
Smith mansion, with Mollie McCann as
tho bride." Cincinnati Enquirer.
Adulterated Coffee.
Chiccorj, carrots, caramel and (late
seeds are tho substances commonly
used to adulterate ground coffee. A
single test will show tho housekeeper
whether she has purchased pure or
adulterated coffee. Take a little of the
coffee and press it between tho fingers,
or give it a squeeze in the paper in
which it is bought; if genuine it will not
form a coherent mass, as coffee grains
are hard and do not readily adhere to
each other; but if the grains stick to
each ether and form a sort of "cake,"
we may be pretty sure of adulteration
in tho shape of chiccory, for the grains
are softer and more open, and adhere
without difficulty when squeezed.
Again, if we place a few gnvns in a
saucer and moisten them with a little
cold water, chiccory will very quickly
become soft like bread en ibs, whilo
coffeo will tako a long time to soften.
A third test: Take a wino-glass or
tumblerful of water, and gently drop a
pinch of the ground coffee on tho sur
face of the water without stirring or
agitating; genuine coffee will lloat for
some time, whilst chiccory or any other
soft root will sink,
Chiccory or caramel will cause a yel
lowish or brownish color to diffuse rap
idly through the water, whilo pure cof
fee willgivo no sensible tint under such
circumstances for a considerable length
of time.
"Coffeo mixtures" or "coffee im
provers" should be avoided. Thoy sel
dom consist of anything but chiccory
and caramel.
"French coffee," so widely ued at
E resent, is generally ground coffee, the
eans of which have been roasted with
a certain amount of sugar, which, coat

the original aroma than in ordinary

Mr. So is forty years of age. and al
though be has lived in America fire
years he bssn't even mastered tfce sim
ple beauties of "pidgin" English. He
is the dolt of the school, but that fact
doesn't seem to disturb him a particle,
and the look of pleased astonishment
his face wore yesterday when he was
told for the twentieth time that "A" is
the first letter of tho alphabet would
have driven any but a Christian teacher
to distraction.
A I.KSsO.V IK SPELLING.
"H-e-n," said the teacher, as he
wrote those letters on the blackboard,
and received an approving smile from
Mr. So.
"What docs that spell?" continued
the instructor.
The pupil smiled, scratched his left
side and reflected.
That is hen a chicken," said the
teacher.
' Me abe hen," replied Mr. So, as
coolly as though the information was
not by any mejiis new.
" Well, write it," said the teacher,
thrusting a piece of chalk into the
Mongolian's right hand. The idea of
asking hits to write .struck the other
seekers after knowledge as extremely
funny, and Sam Hing, King Gee, Moi
Kce and Chang Lung giggled like over
grown schoolboys. The slow pupil
.smiled, eyed the writing on the black
board critically, grasped his crayon
firmly, and. to the astonishment of the
Caucasians in tho room, executed an
almost perfect imitation of the teachers'
chirograohy of the word hen.
" Bead it," said the teacher.
"Chlicken," was the nonchalant re
sponse of the pupil, as he moved toward
his heat.
"Not chicken, hen," said tho in
structor in correction.
Alle same hen, alle same chicken,"
replied Mr. So, hilosophically, as ho
dropped into his .scat and fanned his
fevered brow with his primer.
CKLKSTIAI. PHILOSOPHY.
A lady and gentleman were tho only
teachers in this school j'esterday. The
lady devoted herself to Ah How, while
John Lung looked on and yawned at
regular intervals as though he was
dreadfully bored. Ah How, however,
appeared to tako great interest in his
studies. The male toacher spent the
greater part of the school hour in in
stmcting Quong Wha and Ah Loon,
the latter being much the brighter stu
dent. "Thclox has a hen." said the
teacher, reading from the primer. "Tho
fov has a hen, returned the pupils,
spelling out the words.
"This is the picture," said the tutor,
pointing to an engraving.
"Me sabc flov, mo sabo hen." re
plied Ah Loon, eyeing tho picture.
"What fol Uox got him hen?" in
quired Quong, examining the wood
cut. " He wants to eat it," answered tho
teacher.
"Belli' good flox," was the senten
tious criticism of Quong, as he looked
gravely at the teacher, who was evi
dently unprepared for any such philo
sophical utterance and consequently did
not attempt to reply to it.
About this time the attention of near
ly ovary ono iu the room was attracted
by the suppressed laughter of Moi Kec
and King Gee, who were enjoying the
lluttering of a paper butterfly, manufac
tured and set afloat by Sam Hing. The
artificial insect was captured and the
courso of study went on. Tho teach
ers hear tho lessons of each pupil sepa
rately, and so long as they are under
the eyes of their preceptors the pupils
are as meek and studious as any one
could wish, but their other moments
are not spent in study that is, to any
great extent. The teachers, however,
arc loud in their praises of the scholars
and say they learn with remarkable
rapidity.

Breakfast.
This meal is often slighted, but it de
serves especial attention from the house
keeper. As its name reminds us. it
comes when we have been longer with
out food than at any other time in ths
twenty-four hours, and need that which
is nourishing while not too heavy.
Then, too, it is a family reunion after
the separation of the night, and a such
should be made as pleasant and attract
ive as possible. It seem to give tha
key-note for the day, and any discord
here is very likely to echo through tho
hours which follow. Care should be
taken that breakfast is served at a suffi
ciently early hour for the member of
the family whose duties call them away
for a busy day to have a comfortable
and orderly meal before starting. Much
dyspepsia and consequent ill-humor are
caused by the habit of taking a hurried
and insufficient breakfast, followed by
a rapid walk to catch a boat or train.
In France the first breakfast consist
simply of a cup of coffee and a roll,
while in England it is a hearty meal
composed of various substantial dishes,
both hot and cold, of which the mem
bers of the family partake at their con
venience, instead of assembling at a
stated hour. Our busy American life
seems to demand something more sub
stantial than the one and more prompt
and regular than the other, and Ameri
can breakfasts are made a special feat
ure at some of the trench restaurants.
The housekeeper should study varie
ty in the breakfasts she offers her fam
ily, not only from day to day. but
changing them as much as possible
with the seasons. The things which
are most suggestive of comfort on a
cold winter's morning are by no means
tempting in July, when we need not
only lighter clotliing but lighter food.
Too often tho meal loses all character
in a continual round of steak or chops
the vear through, and dainty dishes
which aro really less expensive are
ignored. Cold meats or chicken can
bo easily made into croquettes, or
minced and well seasoned and served
on slices of water toast. Eggs can be
cooked in such a variety of ways that
ono need never tire of them, and the
same ma be said of potatoes. In their
season, tomatoes sliced and served with
a Mayonnaise dressing, or a simple
dressing ot on and vinegar, are very
nice for breakfast.

For the picnic proper, only cold pro
visions and such as win bo easily trans
ported are made ready. Roast and
broiled chickens should bo cut into neat
joints, ham sliced, and tho supcrllous
fat trimmed away from this as from
fresh meats. If you have a sandwich
box large enough to hold j our meats,
divide each kind from the rest by clean,
odorless white paper. Tho next best
thing to a tin meat-case is to improvise
a substitute by lining neatly with
white paper as many small, flat paste
board boxes as are" needed. There is
generally a goodly supply of such in
every house in this da of ruchings,
cuffs, collars and bon-bons. Pack one
with ham, another with chicken, a
third with cheese, and so on, tying
them up securely. If the boxes aro
greased they can be thrown away when
empty. Tho third best way of carrying
meats is to do up each kind in writing
paper, then in a small napkin pinned
securely about the parcel. For sand
wiches, chopped or ground ham is
preferable to sliced, aud tongue better
than either. Butter biscuits at home,
slice "bread thin, and fold over unon
tho butter. Wrap the pile in a napkin
not so tightly as to crash it, and give it,
when you can,' a basket to itself. This
is even more expedient with cake,
and a necessity with fruit. In one re
ceptacle put up such condiments as are
needed.
If cold tea and coffee are 'provided
and thoy are always welcome pour
them into bottles, carefully corked. At
tho cost of whatever inconvenience,
have ico to cool these, water and lem
onade. A lump of ice, wrapped in dry
flannel and this inclosed iu stout paocr
bound firmly in place with twine, the
whole sot in a covered basket, will keep
for hours without melting into serious
waste. Strong, cheap tumblers are best
for picnic use. For plates vou may, if
you like, buy the light wooden or Jap
anese paper ones sold for this purpose.
The weight of crockery is a serious ob
jection to carrying it on a walking
part y. If you go by carriage or boat,
pack one hamper with plates, tumblers,
knives, forks, spoons and other needed
utensils. Into this can also go table
cloth and n&pkins. If you use paper
dqyleys, yet see that three or four tow
els are put up also. Afew hand-towels
and a cake of soap should not bo for
gotten, since fingers usually supersede
Forks on such occasions. A little prac
tice will enable you to stow away all
the articles I have named in a surpris
ingly small space. Olives and irir.kles
are acceptable at all cold collations.
Sardines are convenient and nonular.
also potted meats, such as deviled game
and boned chicken.
The gypsying-party is a variation of
the picnic and, in my opinion, is an
improvement upon the original plan.
It is, however, hardly feasible when the
excursion is oedestrian. unless tha
camping-ground is selected so near to
a farm-house that a large iron-pot or a
tea-kettle can be borrowed. Of course,
either or both of these are easily car
ried in a wagon. The kettle can be
hung upon a horizontal pole lashed at
each end to a tree, or supported upon
forked boughs. A more picturesque
style is the conventional three poles
thrust into the ground and inclining
toward one another until they meeu
and are bound together at top. The
kettle Is swung from the poiat of inter
section over a clear fire of dry sticks,
which has been kept up some time be
for the water is trusted above it Green
wood and a newly-kindled flame make
artistically graceful smoke as the back

If it is necessary, in order to econo
mize time in the morning, to sot tho
breakfast table tho night before, it
should be carefully covered with an old
linen tible-cloth,or .something of the
kind kept for the purpose. The tea or
coffee service should bo placed in a lino
at one end of the tablo before the host
ess, and it is no longer customary to
stand them on a tray. Mats, which aro
prettiest if thoy aro pure white, are
put at the opposite end of the table for
the one or more substantial dishes and
at tho sides for vegetables. A table
set in this way looks much better than
when tho host and hostess sit opposite
each other at tho .sides of tho table, as
in that case all the larger dishes aro
crowded in the center. A fork should
be placed at the loft of each plate and
a knife and spoon at tho right The
tablespoons and pepper and salt stands
are arranged together at tho corners of
the tabic. If fruit which requires hand
ling is to form the lir.st course, as
oranges or peaches, a plate upon which
is a do'ly, linger bowl, fork and fruit
knife, may be set at each plate. Or if
melons aro to be served, the plates can
bo set in a pile before the host, and the
etm knife and fork put at tho right
and left of each place.
Aftor the fniit has been removed tho
more substantial part of the breakfast
is brought on. The pot in which the
coffeo is mado should bo of a kind
which is presentablo at table, as tho
coffee is not so good if it is poured oft
the grounds into an urn. If it is not
poj-sible to have cream for it. boiled
milk with a spoonful of condensed milk
in each cup to mako it richer is the
best substitute. Cakes to bo eaten
with sirup should be served at the last
of the meal, and the plates and knives
and forks changed for them. It is well
to have all the plates which will be
needed ready for use on the bit tret, ex
cept in winter, when thoy may be con
signed to the plate-warmer.
Though tho table may be set by a
servant it should be inspected and re
ceive the hist touches from the mistress,
to bo sure that it is all in order before
the. family is summoned. It ought to
be as easy to place a dish straight as
crooked, but it does not seem to bo so
for the ordinar servant She will re
quire long and patient training before
she can be made to realize that the
"lines of beauty" for tho table are
stra'ght, and broken of her propensity
to set things on askew. -If no flowers
can bo found, a pretty potted plant
might be given the place of honor in
the center of the table. Christian

Shoplifters.
Said a city retail dealer: "I could
dispense with a number of my clerks
were it not for the necessity of guarding
against the thieves which infest all
large stores. Shoplifting is a crime
that is becoming enormous in its pro
portions, and at present we are power
less to combat it All our clerks arc so
disposed behind my counters that they
can watch each other's customers, and
this they are instructed to do at all
times. We detect a woman in the' act
of pocketing goods, call in an officer
and have her arrested. What is the re
sult? At the examination her friends
and relatives come forward and testify
that she is insane, or subject to fits of
insanity, and she is discharged to go
and prey upon some other merchant
Once in" a while one of them is held for
trial, but a specious lawyer works upon
the sympathies of the "jury and he or
she is acquitted. Country" as well as
city people plunder us. Quite recently
a well-known lady residing in aristo
cratic style came in with some country
relatives. We detected one of these
putting goods into her basket, but, she
speciously explained that in the coun
try where she lived it was the custom
when looking 3t goods to put those
which she wished to purchase into her
basket, and, when her shopping was
completed, to hand the basket to a
clerk, who figured up the value of the
purchases, took his pay for them, and
she carried them away in the basket
Of course she got Tery red and con
fused while telling this abominable lie,
but I figured up' the amounw of her
'purchases.' she paid for them and took
them away in her basket. With some
professional shoplifters the covered
market-basket is a favorite receptacle
for carrying off plunder; but some use
a capacious pocket or bag fastened
about the waist and hanging beneath
their skirts. To get the plunder into
this the opening is the dress that would
be taken for a- pocket is merely a slit,
hidden by folds of an ample skirt, aad
similar openings are is the underskirts.
A dexterous thief in a morning's shop- j
ping will mace a tew tntung purchase
andpocket a basfcel ol goods."
cannot read such a lu-tory without per
ceiving the great importance of a well
deviscd plan of exactness in all the do
tails of sanitary constrtn'tiou, aud of a
superintendence which shall be as vigi
lant as intelligent mid see to it that no
possibilities of acrumulite.l tilth can
occur. A comparison of the meteoro
logical table shows how exceptionally
warm the months of April and May had
been, with an ab-ence of the usual rains.
No doubt, this had much to do with stir
ring the latent poison into activity, and
thus making aerial sewago or contam
inated air abundant.
Not less decided and not less typical
was the occurrence of m ilarial fevers
at Bound Brook. While nnlaria w.us
very prevalent in many Mates and m
many localities of New Jersey last year,
yet tho condition of things "at Hound
Brook was such as to furnish admirable
opportunity for more exact study. The
mangrove swamps of Africa give not
moro decided evidence of special mala
rial productivity than did this town.
Tho man who "has .seen several little
craters all the more enjoys Vesuvius,
because it is so very declarative. A
town in which no inhabitant escapes is
not to be explained away by aii3 gen
eral theory of origin. Tho iltbnaoi a
half century had collected in a .sluggish
water-bed, amid rank vegetation, whoso
decay had stored away much organic
mitter. It was ne.ir the discharge of
two or three Miiall streams, which thus
brought down the accumulation ol a
large, low watershed. The alternation
of heat and of water had been unusual,
and had furnished all the conditions for
fermcnlivu or putrefactive changes.
Tho results were up to tho plan. So
tho people thought; so the courts
thought. Forthegoodness of the thing
is this: It gave rise to a trial which will
over bo notable in American legis'ation.
It proclaimed drainage for' health a
necessity as never before. It not only
compelled the removal of a mill-dam, ,
but the restoration of a stream-bed.
Aow .jersey justice was as rigorous as
if it had caught a culprit, and declared
that men. women and children must
not have the'r animation suspended in
such manner. The result, too, is a
Stite law which, while it protects own
ers ot water-rights from unfair risks,
proclaims tho right of pure air and a
dry soil to all tho land and the inhab
itants thereof. About tho same timo
small-pox took on epidemic proportions
in Camden. It revealed an inadequacy
of provision that startled this citv of
contentment, and gave it to know that,
with all its enterprise, it moved too
slowly to keep up with the move of the
disease. Atone time it bid fairto plant
itself in overy street of the city. A
council hold with tho SUite Board of
Health resulted in the authorization of
vaccination to an extent which fully
nmiica mo disease. v lien will man
kind loam that it is not nceessarv to
have a scare snd some deaths in order
to secure that vaccination which can
alone protect from such a scourge?
Later in the .season, at Blackwood
town. some twelve miles from Camden,
a fever broke out in the almshouse,
which did not cease its deadly work
until physician, and nurses, and keep
er, and family, as well as some forty
inmates, had fallen before the disease.
Over-crowding was tho great error.
In the midst of a motley herd was
brought a man sick with fever, who
was placed at once in a crowded bed
room. In twelve days there were sev
eral cases in adjoining rooms. It is
quite possible that the first New York
cases arose from the tramps who scat
tered from this place. The whole
course of the fever was that of a well
declared typhus. It is not only conta
gious, but clings o tenaciously to sur
faces that long after it has seemed to
cease it will again recur, under favor
ing circumstances. It is still so per
sistent in ccrtiin parts of New York
City that its sanitary authorities may
well be on the alert. lest dirty streets
and a hot summer should cause it to
extend. Thus, in a sing e small State,
wedged in between Philadelphia and
New York, we have examples of four
preventible epidemics in a single year,
and call upon all who read thereof to
take heed. .V. Y. Inflcjcmlcnt.

An old Scotch gentleman had. in
the course of a long life, gained a great
reputation for bravery. The shortest
way to his own home from the little
village club that he nightly resorted to
lay through a church-yard, and it oc
curred to some would-be wags to try if
he was impervious to fear of the spirit
ual as well as the mortal world. One,
therefore, dresied up in the orthodox
sheet, using a litt'e sulphur judiciou-Iy
here and there to make it more ghastly,
just as the old gentleman one dark
night reached the loneliest part of the
church-yard, suddenly appeared to him
But of the two the ghost was most dis
concerted, for his intended victim,
auietly finishing the pinch of snuff first
tat he was at that moment enjoying,
addressed him in the following concili
atory fashion: "Noo. my laid, would
ye just have the kindness to tell me are
ye out for a saunter by yoursel', or is it
the general rising?"

There has been a brisk demand for
oyster shells at New Haven, Conn.,
lately for use in the oyster-beds, as the
spawn adheres to them readily after
being bleached on the land. They have
become to indispensable that large
quantities are being brought from Rhode
Islamd. where they once threatened to
cover up the State, and the price in
Providence has risen from five to seven
ceats per bushel. The accumulation of
shells around New Haven was formerly
used to make roads, the "shell roads"
being celebrated for their hard, smooth
surface. Bnt no more will be made
with shells in such demand as at pres
ent. Dealers think that next year they
will have to bring shells from Baltt-saore.
"This is the porterhouse, is it'-'
asked the sad passenger, .sitting at the

with the intonation of a man who want

"It seemed to be a trille tcndeier last

with the air of a tired man indulging
in pleasant rem nicetices of the
past, "but I remember now; it was

car you cut your portcrnousc steaks

The waiter looke 1 puzz'ed. "Why.
