8 THE OLD
8 BLUE JAR
OOOOOOooOOooooooQOooOOooOo
Before Clementine went down to
Mllltown for the summer she made up
her mind that she would bend all her
energies to wheedle Aunt Phoebe out of
the old blue ginger jar that Uncle
Julius had brought homo from China ,
little thinking that the old slant eyed ,
fat sided mandarin would take such a.
Jocular interest in her joys and ser
rows.
The old blue jar had perched for
many years on the corner of the high
mantelpiece in the old fashioned coun
try parlor , and Aunt Phoebe knew that
If she gave It to Clementine she would
kavc n dreadfully lonesome feeling
every time she stood on a chair to dust
the old clock , the shells , the peddler
vases , the leather fans and other com-
Hanlons of Its lofty abode. But Clem
entine was an accomplished wheedler ,
and the fond old aunt finally said she
might have her wish.
When Aunt Phoebe gave over to
Clementine her right and title to the
old blue jar , Randall was leaning In
the window and Idly sifting rose leaves
from the old climbing vine through the
meshes of his tennis racket. He sympa
thized with her lively admiration for
the antique and unique In china and
was glad that she had attained her
heart's desire , but a more absorbing in
terest possessed his manly breast.
Clementine was going home In the
morning , and he had been trying In
vain for several days to get the feeble
courage of his ardent convictions up
to the declarative point. She was such
a lively , fun loving girl , and love , you
know , is such Intensely serious busi
ness. Several times Randall fancied
ho had found her In a sober and prop
erly receptive frame of mind , when
with n trifling jest she would defeat
his intention and put the little god to
flight.
Now , however , when the slant eyed
mandarin on the blue jar winked nt
him through the vines , Randall said to
himself enthusiastically :
"Well , old boy , that's the very thing !
Thank you for the bright idea ! Are
they all as clever as you are over In
China ? "
That night , In his room under the
eaves , he constructed an eloquent let
ter to Clementine and in the early
morning sneaked into the parlor and
deposited It In the robust bosom of the
old blue mandarin.
"If she finds It before she goes home ,
It is nil right , " said the timorous , ador
ing fellow , "and if she doesn't find it
until afterward it will be all right too. "
But the mandarin felt a little funny
that day , so when Clementine packed
her trunk ho inspired her to stuff the
ginger jar full of her silken hose , that
the precious article might take no risks
of breakage In Its voyage. So when
Randall parted from her at the station
she made no sign of knowing anything
in particular , and his hopeful heart de
l-V cided that she would surely find the
letter when she reached hemet and ho
would then hear from her.
. Now , Clemlntlne was a glrUwho al-
ivays had a great many things on her
mind , and when she had unpacked the
treasured Jar and placed it on a dainty
table in her pretty parlor with a self
congratulatory thought that it was so
respectable to have things that one's
relative had brought from China she
wholly forgot the curious load that the
mandarin had on his breast. She missed
her silken hose , of course , and pestered
Aunt Phoebe with messages about
them.
In Mllltown , as you may Imagine ,
Randall waited for the answer to his
letter. Awhile ho waited patiently ,
then impatiently awhile , and then
dived into his law books with that
"composure of settled distress" which
lovers have known In every ago and
clime. Ho did not dream that the slant
eyed mardarln would bo guilty of'tho
ungentlemanly trick of intercepting a
love /letter. /
But the fun loving mandarin knew
what he was about Ho was not with
out experience in these matters , and
he wanted to punish Clementina a
trifle and bring her to the proper con
dition of seriousness.
And Clementine was feeling the situ
ation with all the sobriety that was de
sirable. She had suspected all sum
mer that Randall had a tender feeling
for her which she felt qualified to re
ciprocate , but she was a proud girl and
could not by a feather's weight Influ
ence the balance of his attentions.
Therefore behind her smiles she had
been not a llttlo wounded that he had
allowed her fo come homo without hav
ing given expression to his sentiments.
Bo she , too , now took on a sober
countenance and banished thought and
regret by Joining several new clubs
and taking membership In two or thrco
more charitable organizations.
Just bcforo Christmas Randall one
day experienced In his breast a sort of
Imperative Intimation perhaps direct
from the slant eyed mandarin , who
knows ? that ho might hear of some
thing to his advantage If ho should go
down to the city and call upon Clemen
tine ; so after Rome futile resistance to
the message ho betook himself thither.
Ho was graciously received by Clem
entine that Is , graciously enough for
a young man who had played the
trlflcr with her Invisible affections
and ho seated himself in n cozy chair
near the pretty table which held his
old friend the blue Jar.
As he talked with Clementine , a llt
tlo constraint being apparent on both
sides , ho toyed with the lid of the Jar ,
and the slant eyed mandarin appeared
to wink at him three Union very know
ingly.
Under some occult but Imperative
pressure Randall removed the lid and
touched with his flngcr the silken tex
ture of some mysterious contents ,
Curiosity further constrained him ,
and he pulled from the bosom of the
now Jubilant mandarin a palo blue ar
ticle of singular description for n parlor
ornament , and , following It , ho extri
cated n palo pink strip of similar shape
and structure.
Turning to Clementine for explana
tion of these unforeseen apparitions , ho
found her speechless with wild eyed as
tonishment , and without a word or
gesture she seized the old blue jar and
hurried from the room.
Randall smiled the first real , soul felt ,
refreshing smllo that ho had Indulged
In for several months and vowed by
the pigtail of the old slant eyed that ho
would stay rooted to the spot until
Clementine returned.
What she said to the genius of the
Jar as she flew up stairs with It only
the mandarin can revdal.
As Randall paced the parlor , pulling
his mustache and wondering If Clemen
tine's keen sense of humor would carry
her safely through the trying hour , she
came shamofncod'y into the room , bear
ing in one hand the blinking old man
darin and In the other the pleading let
ter he had berne so long hid In his
clever old bosom.
Randall met the dear girl moro than
half way , and as she whimpered gently
on his shoulder he promised never ,
never , never to tell.
And when they were married , If you
believe me , that ridiculous old ginger
Jar accompanied them on their wedding
trip , and Randall packed the bosom df
the grotesque mandarin full of Clemen
tine's bridal roses , there to fade and
there forever to remain.
Now , as Randall never told and
Clementine never told , the entire
responsibility of this revelation lies be
tween you and me and the ginger Jar.
The Illw Ships of the Pn * ( .
Gigantic as are the sea monsters de
vised by the modern shipwright , we
have not reached the dimensions of the
Mannlgafunl of Frisian legend , whoso
masts were so high that a boy sent
aloft to "bear n hand" came down a
g ray headed man , whose deck was so
spacious that the captain had to gallop
about on horseback to give his orders
and whoso length was so great thnt
when swinging in the channel her stern
scraped the cliffs of Albion white , while
her bowsprit swept the forts at Calais.
But we have exceeded In some re
spects the dimensions of Ptolemy's
great ship , which was 420 feet long , 57
feet broad and 72 feet In depth of hold
and which carried 4,000 rowers and
3,000 mariners , besides unnumbered
soldiers and passengers. Of the great
ship of Hlcro , king of Syracuse , the di
mensions have not been recorded , but
she was nt least as large as Ptolemy's ,
considering that her freightage was
" 00,000 measures of com , 10,000 Jars of
salt fish , 20,000 talents' weight of wool
and of other cargo 20,000 talents , In ad
dition to the provisions required by the
crew , " and that she was so large no
harbor In Sicily could contain her.
This problem of harbor accommoda
tion Is one that is already troubling
the owners of modern steam monsters
and is placing a limit on their growth.
Monthly Review.
Abont Sueeclng.
We frequently hear the expression ,
"God bless you ! " uttered after some
one has sneezed. The expression , If
we can believe Clodd in his "Childhood
of the World , " dates back to the time
of Jacob. We are told In. Jewish lit
erature that previous to his time men
sneezed but once in a lifetime and that
was the end of them , for the shock
slew them. Jacob prevailed In prayer
and had the fatality set aside on the
condition that among all the nations a
sneeze should be hallowed by the
words , "God bless you ! " In the "Jata-
ka , " ouo of the books of the Buddhist
Scriptures , we read that the expres
sion was , "May the blessed Lord al
low you to live ! "
Buddha on ono occasion while
preaching to his disciples happened to
sneeze. The priests gave vent to the
exclamation , and Buddha lectured them
for interrupting his discourse.
"If when a person sneezes , " ho asked ,
"and you say , 'May ho live ! ' will he
live the longer ? "
"Certainly not ! " cried the priests.
"And if you do not say It will he die
any the sooner ? "
"Certainly not ! " was the reply.
"Then , " said Buddha , "from this time
forth If any ono sneeze and a priest
says , 'May you live ! ' he shall be guilty
of a transgression. "
If Men Only Would.
If the young men who are measuring
tape and laces would surrender their
work to the young girls who are seek
ing employment and turn their atten
tion to the pursuits of agriculture , there
would bo less misery and more con
tentment In the land ; there would bo
more Independence and less servility ;
moro men and fewer creatures ; moro
linppy wives with comfortable homes ,

IN THE CAR KITCHEN
8NUQ MANNI-R IN WHICH EATABLES
ARE STOWED AWAY.

The Cook * it ml Their Work.
The nctunl Htnudlng room In the cnr
kitchen consists of nn nlslo only wldo
enough for tvro men to imss cnch other
nnil about fifteen feet long. On otic
eldo Is nn unbroken row of ranges , Uiu
very best sort Invented , for when men
do women's work they are not content
with makeshift tools. On the other
side la a steam table for keeping thlngo
hot , other tables and some of the re
frigerators , for there are many. Hot
water and cold Is held In cylinders
which llu along the celling and look
like the projectiles used on torpedo
boats.
One refrigerator Is devoted exclusive
ly to flsli , which He shining on blocks
of clear Ice as tempting as In any Hsh
market Until I had actually seen this
refrigerator It had been my practice to
rcfuso Huh In traveling , feeling there
was some mystery about Its preserva
tion , but now Indeed , no such thing. I
had fancied the whole menu cooked at
once In enormous quantities , like a sol
diers' mess at camp , and my fastidious
car appetite had revolted and faded
away during the first course , but now
I cat with relish , knowing the condi
tion of the source of supply.
Another refrigerator Is entirely for
meats and game , another for fruit , and
oven bread and cake are kept In a re
frigerator that they retain their mois
ture. Outside the kitchen there Is a
sacred Icebox under lock and key , and
no man may put his hand therein ex
cept ihe steward or housekeeper of the
dining cnr. There twenty-live kinds of
wine are kept , and there will be shown
to you , with a manner awed but proud ,
the royal family of champagne with
cool , gold crowned heads sitting on an
Icy throne.
But , to go back to the kitchen , that
apartment Is occupied by three men
all In white , with perhaps a blue cor
don for tradition's sake , who servo
deftly and capably the hlvcful of wait
ers that swnrm at the open square at
the inner end of the room. It Is a
wise provision that prevents close con
tacts , for cooks are apt to bo "redhot"
nt the crucial hour of dinner serving ,
and , besides , the car kitchen can con
tain no more men than the three cooks ,
who broil , roast , stew and fry the
numberless fancies of the patrons' pal
ates. These men work hard. The
head cook , whoso salary Is about § 70
per month , stands farthest from the
window where the waiters clamor and
Is a bit more serious. The middle
cook , on $45 salary , Is lively or sub
missive according to the man he ad
dresses , and the end cook llnds time
to chaff the owners of the dark faces
who call orders , and sometimes ho
sings as happily as a conceited boy
who fancies his future on the operatic
stage.
Thcso three men make up the white
capped trio we see peering out of the
windows of the dining cnr as It slips
Into the station. All the other em
ployees of the train come Into contact
with passengers and have Interesting
experiences , but these are confined In
the galley and are eager for scant
glimpses at the station. Sometimes
the car has a little balcony at the end ,
where they can escape the heat of
their quarters , a needed relief In sum
mer time.
The waiters have a pantry adjoining
the kitchen and opening Into It only
by the little square window with a
counter on either sldo. When your or
der Is given and the waiter disappears ,
this Is where he has gone. Here are
kept supplies of dishes and silver , and
hero It Is the waiter makes up the
dishes of cakes , fruit and cheese you
call for with which to tie up the ends
of your appetite.
Before the dining cnr Is drawn away
from the carynrda the special house
keeper who has It In charge must see
that every sort of supply Is on hand
and In sufficient , but not too lavish ,
quantity. Sometimes there are ninety
persons to feed , sometimes one-third
that number , but the probable number
on the various runs Is known. In long
journeys there are commissary sta
tions along the way where the car may
be restocked , but this is seldom neces
sary except with such perishables as
cream and milk. Have you ever heard
a porter agitating that subject w'lth
station employees at Buffalo or else
where ? That means the emergency
has arisen In the dining car. Such
things might easily happen in a larder
where demands are irregular and mar
kets scores of miles away. It Is a won
der they do not happen oftener when
wo reflect that economy in perishable
things is exacted from the steward
housekeeper.
Just before he sends his black com
missary to announce dinner to the hun
gering pasengers every man slips on
jacket and apron of whitest linen and
by this little act of costuming is con
verted nt once from the nondescript
man of the streets Into the most spruce
of servitors. Then , with everything
ready In the. kitchen and with his flock
of assistants about him , the house
keeper of the dining car awaits the
coming of his guests. And In they
come , thoughtless blessing takers , with
never a reflection on the hours of prep
aration by the army of men that It
has taken to give them the degree of
comfort which Is purchasable for a
dollar bill. Alnslcc'fl Magazine.

An Ant Kor * Pel.
One of the queerest little pots ever
rcn In the tame ant belonging to n well
known HclcntlRt. This man keeps trlhrn
of antn In nests which ho has made
himself and feeds them with honey or
sugar through a tube that connectn
with the iicntH. One day ho nnw that
onn of the ants kept coming Into the
tube to cat up the honey In the gln H
bulb at the end. When ho took out the
cork that closed the bulb , the Insect
came to look for the food , and ho offer
ed It Homo honey on the point of a
needle , says the New York Tribune.
The ant shrank back at first , then
drew nearer , feeling about with Its an
tenna1 , until It reached the needle.
Boon it learned to take the honey off
ItH keeper's linger , although antti are
among the most timid of living things ,
and a new odor or the least movement
outside tholr nests usually drives those
little Insects away.
This ant Is now so tame that It quits
the bulb as soon an the cork Is removed
and goes to llnd the honey on the sci
entist's linger. When Its meal Is over ,
it dues not try to hurry away , but
waits till Its Minuter lifts It on u bristle
and carries It buck to Its nest.
A ItntllrNiinkn Hory.
In "Life and Sport on the Pacific
Coast , " Horace A. Vachell relates one
of his narrow escapes from a friend's
bulh't : "My cousin and I had been
camping and hunting for several days
In a sort of paradise valley. One day ,
during a long ride on horseback , wo
had HPOH a great many rnlllemmlu'H
and killed a few , an exceptional ex
perience. That night my cousin woke
up and saw , by the light of the moon , a
big rattler crawling across my chest.
He lay for a moment fascinated , horror
ror struck , watching the sinuous curves
of the reptile.
"Then he quietly reached for his six
shooter , but he could not see the rep-
tllo's head , and he moved nearer , noise
lessly , yet quickly , dreading some
movement on my part that should pre
cipitate the very tiling he dreaded , and
then he saw that It was not a snake at
all only the black and yellow stripe of
my blanket , which gently rose and fell
as 1 breathed. Had he fired well , It
might have been bad for me , for he
confessed that his hand shook. "

Many of the negro superstitions In
Kentucky are quite Interesting. An
old philosopher told me with great
gravity : "If you want peppahs to grow ,
you must git mad. My old 'oinun an
me had a spat , an I went right out
an planted my peppahs , an they come
right up. " Still another saying Is that
peppers to prosper must bo planted
by a redheaded or by a high tempered
person.
The negro also snys that one never
sees a jaybird on Friday , for the bird
visits his Kiitanlc majesty , to "pack kin
dling" on that day. The three signs
In which negroes place Implicit trust
are the well known ones of the ground
hog's appearing above ground on the
2d of February , that a hoc must not be
carried through a house or a death will
follow and that potatoes must be plant
ed In the dark of the moon as well as
all vegetables thnt ripen In the ground
and that corn must be planted In the
light of the moon.
Lord Snndicy' * Gulllotlnr.
The most eccentric action of an eccen
tric man was Lord Southoy's cool ar
rangement for suicide by means of a
guillotine. Ho had a magnificent one
erected In the drawing room of his
house In the Rue du Luxembourg at
Paris. The machine was of ebony In
laid with gold and silver , the frame
work carved with artistic skill , the
knife , sharp as a razor , was of polished
and ornamented steel. Preparing for
death , his lordship had his hair cut
close , and , clothed In a robe of white
silk , he kneeled upon the platform
under the knife before a mirror and
pressed the spring which should release
the knife. Uut the spring failed to
work , and the would bo suicide decided
to give the guillotine to a museum In
stead of making a second attempt to
end his life. It Is said that ho made
an annual pilgrimage to sec the guillo
tine until the end of his life.
Laughter Saved the Ship.
Humor has been credited with the
saving of many things , but perhaps
never before has a ship been saved by
its judicious application. In a great
storm many years ago a ship's crew
were all at prayers , when a boy burst
Into a ( It of violent laughter. Being re
proved for his 111 timed mirth and asked
the reason for It , he said , "Why , I was
laughing to think what a hissing the
boatswain's red nose will make when It
comes In contact with the water. " This
ludicrous remark set the crew laughIng -
Ing , Inspired them with new spirits ,
and by a great exertion they brought
the vessel safely Into port. Liverpool

A Profesnor on Rowing.
A story Is told about a well known
Oxford don who knew more about the
travels of Ulysses than about the boat
ho sailed In. Ho went down to the
river one day to watch the eight prac
ticing. He gazed for awhile In silence.
"Yes , " ho said at last , "they look very
nice very nice indeed , I may say but
how extremely awkward It must be for
them to learn to row backward. "
Crying and Groaning.
According to u French physician ,
crying and groaning In pain arc na
ture's own methods of subduing the
keenness of physical suffering. He
thinks that men should freely relieve
their sufferings In this way and that
crying In children should not bo re
pressed , as In doing so serious consequences
quences may be engendered.
Lycurgus being asked why , In his
laws , ho had ret down no punishment
for ingratitude , answered , "I have left
It to the gods to punish. "
