Ing dementia every timo sho endeavors
to bnliince a cash account. Bnt why in
all bookkeeping systems, from banks to
the smallest retail shop, is it Invariably
tho customer who gets cheated if any
body? Toll me, yo winged winds, which
o'er my pathway roll 1 It is useless to
contradict and say that it isn't. The
ono exception in a thousand years does
not count ngninst tho millions of oppos
ing instances. I have lately read the
pathetic account by somo recluse, who
never goes shopping, of tho bloodthirsty
monsters who tako more chnngo than is
duo them and stalk out, leaving no ad
dress behind them, little recking tho
Bufferings of tho poorly paid etnployeo
who has to mako good tho deficit out of
his or hor own pocket. Fudge 1 No such
mistakes occur, or, if they do, they aro
rarer than fresh vegetables on a country

is a hawk hooded Horns at tho "desk"
wuiting to ponnco on a mistako iu tho
customer's favor of 1 cent, and muuy's
tho timo ovory ono of us can testify tho
littlo slips havo been returned to bo cor
rected of mistakes to our credit, while
we fumed.
Thank goodness, there aro instances
In which tho sharpshooters havo wound
ed themselves. Oncol was on n "sound"
boat going from Now York to Fall River,
and tho man at tho desk gavo me a $5
bill too much in chungo when paying
after supper. Thcro was something of a
crowd, but that mistako would have
mado itself evident to mo in a mob. I
dashod back and Raid, "You'vo mado n
mistako in my change "
"Can't help that," said tho lordly
clerk. " Wo novcr rectify mistakes here. "
"Oh, yon don't?" retortod tho head of
tho party. "Well, it will cost you some
thing this timo, for you havo given ns
95 too much. But if yon never rectify
mistakes yon aro tho loser for onco. "
It is foolish to dwell on tho hermel,
and I havo forgotten it. I only remem
ber that tho young man, palo nud agi
tated, danced in supplication around tho
unmoved iignro of tho stern udmouisher
for somo minutes. I suppose ho got his
money, and I daro say thero was no law
upholding ono in keeping it, but I hope,
at this distanco of timo, bo didu't. Ono
day, not long ago, I was at a furnishing
shop ii- State street, Chicago, buying a
tie. Tho prico was $1.G0, and I present
ed tho man with f 9 bilL Ho swung
over tho littlo birdcago on n telegraph
lino and it enmo swiftly back with a CO
cent piece. Seeing another tio for that
prico, I handed back tho change and
was alout to leavo, when a voico canio
from tho elevated desk at tho other end:
"Hi I This half dollar is counterfeit t"
Although it was publio placo and I
am a retiring lady, I burst wildly forth
into a clarion shout of joy. It is so sel
dom a modest customer has tho chanco
of lKsholdiug n natural enemy caught
with his own quicklime. Tho mortifica
tion of tho salesman sorving mo was
something to hoc. It did mo good for a
wholo day. Sending n counterfeit half
dollar cheerfully and with promptitude
in chungo and repudiating it on its re
turn tho next miuuto ! It was a sharp
game nnd a littlo too sharp.
Everybody who shops much knows
that it is next to impossiblo to got a
"returned" urtiolo credited, or, indeed,
culled for. H you tako two rugs on ap
proval I meution rugs becauso you
can't very well return thorn by hand
ami stuto clearly and plainly and over
and over tho prico of tho ono you havo
kept and tho ono you wish rotumod,
you aro moro likely than not to find
both on your bill tho noxt month, and
you aro likoly to find tho rug day after
day littering your hall unless you tele
phone twico n day and cud by flouncing
down yourself in a rago and demanding
its instant removal. Of conrso if it Jo
kept long you aro charged with it, any
way. Tho othor night, when it was very
hot, somo friends of a lady iu moderate
circumstances dining with hor suggest
ed u diivo in tho park. One of tho men
telephoned for n landau, und at tho end
of tho drivo paid for it Tho noxt week
tho bill camo in to tho lady. Now of
course this was an accident. But why
doesn't tho othor accident over happen?
Why should thousands of bills como in
to bo paid twice, whilo by no oversight
or bad management docs a bill over got
forgotten or overlooked? Money getting,
grasping, greedy generation of shop
keepers I Business is business, if yoa
like, but business nocd not bo a cut
throat, bloodthirsty system of demand
ing what is not duo, need it? Must it bo
in this way that men grow rich?
It is bocajBo only oue kind of mis
takes occur that ono is justified in think
ing that only oue kind is guarded
agaiuBt Tho customer has to look out
for himself and tho shopkeeper too. Tho
shopkeeper only looks out for himself.
As for tho breaking of promises, tho
calm doluys and tho superb independ
ence of "purveyors," words fall me
when I attempt to dopict their aggrava
tions. Success broods contempt, it seems,
and tho only way to' get a thing done
promptly istopatrouizoa littlo up town

THEATER CURTAINS.
Oaatly Drapartek That Are Ueed la Bene a
tho Londoa TheaUrt.
Few havo any idea of the money
pent by the managers of London thea
ters in procuring tho curtain which
hides tho stago from publio view, re
marked awoll known theatrical fur
fisher to a reporter. Take, for instance,
tho glorious curtain at Sir Henry Irv
ing's theater, the Lyceum. That cur
tain, if it cost a penny, coat at least
1,000 guineas. I am told that 1,000
yards of beautiful blood red plush were
used to mnko it complete, and for it Six
Henry Irving is indebted to tho Baron
ess Burdett-Contts, who somo years ago
generously mado him a present of tho
curtain as n tributo to his artistio gen
ius. A very expensivo curtain is that used
at tho Prince of Wales' thcator, Coven
try street, now occupied by Mr. Arthur
Roberts. Its cost was about 000. It is
mado of boiler plate, is entirely fire
proof and weighs no less than six tons.
No flro can get from the stage to tho
auditorium or vice versa, as the top and
bottom of tho curtain respectively rest
against and upon n solid wall of brick
work. I beliovo this, as well as other
curtains of tho somo kind, was tho in
vention of Mr. O. J. Phipps, tho theat
rical architect
Perhaps tho most beautiful theater
curtain in Loudon whoro tho finest
curtains in tho world are to bo seen
are thoso at tho Lyceum, to which I
havo referred, tho Palace Theater of
Varieties, and the Savoy. Tho Palaco
curtain is a real work of art, and Mr,
u uyiy uarto must navo lavished a
small fortuuo upon its mako. It is a
beautiful dream of gold and various oth
er colored silks, and something liko 000
square yards of silk wcro used in its
manufacture. I am told that tho director
of tho Paris Opera was ttlmast thunder
struck when, during Mr. Carte's produc
tion of "Ivanhoo," he saw tho curtain
for tho first time.
The Savoy curtain nmst havo cost
300 if a penny, its material being of
tho finest gold plush. Another expen
sivo curtain was that bought by Mr.
Charles Wyudham for tho Criterion. It
cost over 120, being mado by Maplo.
Most of tho other London houses, and
probably all the country thoators, con
tout themselves with tho old fashioned
curtain of canvas, sometimes with a
sccno and sometimes with imitation cur
tains painted upon it. Tho cost of thcFo
varies of course, and may run from 20
to 200, according to tho amount of
work put into them and tho artist en
gaged to paint tho sceno. Loudon Tit

The Director Were Satisfied That Their
Claim Was J tut.
Once when tho miners of a big ant lira
cite mining company wero desirous of
receiving increased pay an effort was
made to induco tho local officials iu tho
mining country to mako such rcpre
EPutatious to tho president of tho com
pany as would produco tho desired ef
fect. This was unavailing, however, nnd
eirorts in other directions wero tried,
until tho directors otlered to meet u
delegation of tho miners in Now York
city and discuss tho situatiou. A do?.e:i
of the brawniest miners iu tho region
wero solected as dolcgates great rugged
men, who would certainly mako a fa
vorable impression. Tho men mot tho
officials and stated their caso, which
was that at tho prevailing rate of wuges
they could hardly get enough to oat.
The mutter was hold under adviso

luncheon. Then came tho most amazing
display of appotltcs that has over boon
seen beforo or sinco, nud tho colored
waitors turned palo as they saw a dish
intended for the eutire party retained
by ono man, who speedily mado away
with tho contents. Each man heemed as
ravenous as though ho had not eaten for
a week, and tho caterer was at his wits'
ends to provido for thorn all.
At lust, when every portion had been
eaten and all seemed inclined for moro,

about no moro faucy things. Bring us
a cheese, and wo'll mako out all right"
A chooso was procured, and tho directors
gazed with uwo as it speedily disap
peared. As tho last crumbs wero disap
pearing the officials held a hurried con
sultation, and after awhilo tho president
announced: "Gentlemen, wo havo decid
ed to concodo your claims to on advance
of 10 per cent, for wo aro certain that
at present yoa can scarcoly get enough
