All they know U a more or les ntrong in fusion of chicory, adulterated with a portion of coflfeo. I heard of a connois seur the other day who made the lives of "his wife and his cook a burden to thorn by reason of the coffee brought o him in his own house. In spile of the most careful making, and the most ubsoluto purltv, his. Mocha was never right At last, in desperation, his wife 'asked If lie ever got his coffee to his taste. "Oh; yes, at the club. They make It there right on'ought" was the a iswor. Driven to her vh' end, the lady :on fiulted with her cook, and finally sont the latter to the club to learn tho "proper way to Unite ojffco." As tho absolute purity of thq coffee was oio of tho points insisted on as essential by hor mister, the cook studied tho coffee ufeod In preparing her master's infusion, and hcV sense of sin oil speed Ily taujfht Iter th tills Bo-ealled "puro coffee" was Ittrjraly Iri'xoJ with chle. ory. fhe chof confirmed hor op'nlon, andshow-nt home.

MISTAKEN IDENTITY. II li Qaeitloa Alarmed the Drug Clark Needlenxty. lie sauntered dejectedly Into a drug store, bought a clgrar, lighted it, and then Inquired mysteriously of tho clerk: "How much strychnine does It take to kill" "J don't know and wouldn't toll you if I did," interrupted the clerk. "How much do you sell for a dose?" persisted tho stranger. "Wo never Bell strychnine without a prescription from some physician wo know," answered tho clerk. Then ho went to the telephone, rang up three figures, aatd a few cabalistic words, and returned to tho counter. " Tho sad man was ulotly smokiug his cigar. Ho took it out of his mouth to ask: " "How much js arscnio a grain?" At that moment a policeman entered tho store hastily. "Where 1b ho?" ho asked breath lessly. "There," said tho clerk, pointing to the smoker, who was tho only person In the store; "ho didn't get any poison from mo." "You come along," aald the police man; "you can't kill yourself hero, my manl" "Rats!" said tho dejected customer winking at tho policeman. "Why didn't you say so beforo," Bald " tho clerk, "and not go and put ono to so mnch troublo? I thought you was " a suicide, surer" FOLLOWED AFTER DE TH. Au Irate Maorlua Father Pannes Two Lorera and Kill Himself. Tho Maorlca bollevod in the immor tality of the soul long before the ar rival oX the mlssla arles; but tho spirit land to which they imagined all men journeyed after death was as grossly material as the "happy hunting , grounds" of the North American In dians. Such a legend as the following. which contains an Instance of singu larly determined parental interfer ence, is sufficient evidence of this. A young chief of high rank fell In t love with a Maori maiden of great "beauty but low degroe. His father ''forbade the banns." Thereupon tho usual results followed. Tho young "chlof refused to eat and died of hun tger. The beautiful maiden, heart "Broken at tho death of hor lover, leaped down from tho cliffs into tho -'e in order that she might follow him. Now comes the extraordinary part -f tho story. Tho obdurate father, a hearing of the girl's leap into the sea, crushed to. tho spot, battle-ax in hand. oUslng terri-de language, he declared that ho would prevent the union of the pair in the spirit land, and forthwith himself leaped down to follow them.
