The funniest interview I ever had or heard of, relates Julian Ralph in his reminiscences, was when | Was on the staff of the New York Sun. I had been sent to look up some one in a suburb of the city. The address was a number on Fourth street, but, to my amaze- ment, I found three such streets in the place. The house I sought was not in any of them. Tired and almost dis- couraged I turned into a cobbler’s shop, and seeing a bearded German bending over a last in the glare of a swinging lamp. I cleared my throat and said:

“{ beg your pardon, but I am a re- porter of The Sun”—

“Well, well,” he said soothingly, be- fore I could finish the sentence, “you cannot belp dot.”

1 could not continue for a full min- ute, so struck was I by the unexpected philosophy and wisdom of his reply. 1 could not help being a reporter, and I knew it. When 1 explained that lI wanted an address on Fourth street, and bad already been to three Fourth streets, and would like to know if there were any more, he lifted his haromer and poised it in the air for half a minute,

“You vant to know if dere is some more of dose Fourt’ streets?” he asked. “Vell, I vill tell you. I haf lived here dwenty years, trying to find somedings owt. and | didn’t find anydings owt yet.”

Mr. Kimberley'’s Nimble Wit.

James G. Blaine was nonplused

once while he was secretary of state. One of the applicants for a consulate in Japan was the late Samuel Kimber- ley of Baltimore, who died in the serv- ice in Central America. After he had presented his credentials Mr. Blaine said:

“Il should like to appoint you, Mr Kimberley, but 1 bave made it a rule to recommend no one who does not speak the language of the country to Which be is sent. Do you speak Jap- anese?”’

“Cert-t-tainly, Mr. B-Blaine,” stam- mered Mr. Kimberley. “A-a-ask me S-s-solInething in J-J-Japanese and I'll answer you.”

Mr. Bi@ue hadn't a word to say, but the Japanese post went to another man, all the same, and Kimberley

went to Central America.

Another story is told of Kimberley equally creditable to his nimbie wit. One day he met a young woman who threw her arms impulsively around his neck and kissed him. Seeing her mis- take, she drew back and angrily ask- ed:

“Aren’t you Mr. Jones?”

“N-n-no, madam,” replied Kimber- ley, bowing; “I'm n-n-not, but 1 w-w-wish to thunder | w-w-was.”’— Saturday Evening Post.

The Pronunciation ExptIained.

“There is a family in Virginia,” says Collier’s Weekly, “the name of which is spelled ‘Enroughty,’ but it is pro- nounced ‘Darby.’ This fact, familiar to many Americans, happened to be told by Miss Hayward at a dinner in London at which Mr. Kipling was present, when he broke in: ‘You have saved my reputation by telling that. You are the first man, woman or child who could back me up in it.’

“The explanation of the peculiarity is that the Derbys were an English fami- ly who settled in Virginia in the colo- nial days.: One of the sons, the tradi- tional black sheep of the family, was left a share in his father’s will on con- dition that he changed his name. He

changed his written name to En- roughty, but continued to call himself Derby.

“On hearing this explanation Mr.

Kipling said, ‘I think 1 wil) change my name to Smith.’ ‘You can spell it Smith if you like,’ was the reply, ‘but it will always be pronounced Kipling,’ a remark which caused him to look ‘as unfeignedly pleased as a boy.’”

A Queer Payment.

A Yorkshire clergyman married a cow ple in his church recently, and after he had pronounced them man and wife the groom took him to one side and asked what the damage was.

The parson told him that there was no fixed amount. He might give what- ever he chose.

“Parson,” said he, “I’ve got five gray- hound pups at home, for which I am asking a sovereigy apiece, and I'll let you have one for half a soy.”

Of course the clergyman declined so ridiculous a fee, as he had no use for a grayhound pup.

When he got home he must have found his wife better than expected, for he sent the parson one of the pups, accom- panied with a letter saying that he was so happy with Maria that he would give him a dog for nothing.—London Spare Moments.

To Cure Warts.

The remedy for warts is to take epsom salts. Why sulphate of magnesia should cure warts I cannot tell, but it is enoug!: for me to know that it does do so. I be- lieve the discovery was made by a French doctor, and whoever made it deserves the thanks of thousands. The dose of salts yaries according to age, etc. One physi- cian promptly cured several children of warts by giving them three grain doses of salts morning and evening. Another medical man cured a Woman whose face was disfigured with warts in a month. She took a dram and a half of magnesia every day. In another case a person suf- fering from large warts was cured by taking tem grains of the salts daily for a fortuight.— Home Notes.

Heefy Beauties.

“In Turkey the most beautiful and desirable woman is the one who weighs the most,”’ writes an American who has been sojourning in the sul- tan’s domain. “A thin and willowy creature would have no social standing in Turkey and would be a total failure on the stage ‘n Constantinople. _Up- less a woman is fat she cannot secure an engagement in a musical hall, and the fatter she is the more enthusiasm she arouses and the larger is ber sal- ary.

“On the evening after my arrival fn Constantinople I went to the Concordia Music hall, and there | saw more fem- inine breadth, depth, thickness, peft and circumference than I had ever be- fore seen under one roof. The first woman who sang was fat; the second was fatter; the third was—no, not fat- test, although she was much heavier than No 2. She was merely the prom- ise of what was yet to come. They were holding back the really big art- ists for the finale.

“At last these two came on. They were ‘sisters’ and they made a large family by themselves. The house arose infjoy as the two vast, egg shaped ob- jects appeared on the stage. The Turks, who had been sitting stolidly in the boxes looking with dull uncon- cern at the frail vocalists who weighed * less than 300, now straightened up and clapped their hands.”

CUSTOMS IN SIAN

The favorite delicacy in Siam consists of putrid prawns saturated strong red Pepper,

with very Siamese babies, dogs and cats are all dyed yellow by rubbing in a paste con- taining turmeric powder,

Until recently seashells and cocoanut shells were current coin of the realm in Siam, S880 of the former being chenge for one of the latter. When a member of the royal family dies. honey and quicksilver are poured into the body, which is placed inside ¢ copper urn and that inside a golden one. _ Siamese school children are probably the best bebaved in the world. Not mere- ly corporal punishment, but even the

“i of hard words toward them, is un- ,nuown.,.

They have never taken kindly to kiss- ing. When a sovereign dies, the whole people must shave their heads, wtile some go even further and shave their eye: brows also, :

_ #very man, woman and chitd in Siam is a reckless gambler. One consequence is that pawnshops there are numerous. Some of the streets in Bangkok contain nothing else.

No Siamese will sleep with his head toward the west, except on a Monday. To do so would be, in his opinion, cer- tain death, for dead bodies are always laid out in that position.

The Siamese have so strong a super- stition against even numbers that they will have none of them. The number of the rooms in a house, of windows or doors in a room, even of rungs on a lad- der, must always be odd.

A Mistake,

An old gentleman of SO having taken to tne altar a young damsel of 15, the clergyman said to him:

“The fent is at the other end of the ebureh.”

“What do I want with the font?” said the old gentleman.

“Oh, I beg your pardon,” said the clerical wit. “I thought you had brought this child to be christened.”— London Tit-Bits.

Nervous and : Debilitated.

Aimost a Victim of Nervous Prostration —Was Restored to Hea!th and Strength by Dr. Chase's Nerve Food.

Mrs. D. W. Cronsberry, 168 Richmond street west, Toronto, Ont., states:—

“My daughter, who sews in a white goods manufactory, got completely | run down by the steady confinement and close «ttention required at her work. Her nerves were so exhausted, and she was so weak and debilitated, that she had to give up work entirely, and was almost a victim of nervous prostration.

** Hearing of Dr. Chase's Nerve Food, she began to''se it, and was benefitted from the ver /‘rst. It proved an ex- cellent remedy in restoring her to health and strength. After having used four boxes she is now at work again, healthy and happy, and attri- butes her recovery to the use of Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food.”

As a blood builder and. nerve restora- tive, Dr. Chase’s Nerve Food fs of-in-. estimable value. It makes the blood red, the nerves strong, and the whole system hea‘thy and vigorous, 50c a box —at all dealers, or Edmanson, Bates & Co., Toronto.
