to him to provide the Hannibal orni

them. The discussion was long and I

A paragraph about an economical
merchant In Broadway sating the
backs of old envelopes for scratch pa
per reminds an old friend of this story:
A New York dealer, who left about
$2,000,000, for a long time kept up the
practice of tearing off the fly sheets
of the numerous foolscap letters he
received and sticking them on a spindle
for scribbling purposes. Envelopes
were not yet In use. A lawsuit nrose,
and the merchant thought he had won
his case when defendant's letter, duly
signed, was produced. Counsel for
defendant examined tho letter and,
turning It over to look for the super
scription, found thnt it was missing.
He immediately saw his advantage
and said: "This letter Is Incomplete,
your honor. A sheet Is missing. I
claim that there might have been a
postscript on the other sheet which
would entirely change the character
of the order." The court so ruled, and
defendant won the suit. The practice
of utilizing fly sheets in that mer
chant's otllce was at once discontinued.

llait flnnnna Tre« Grow.
It Is a peculiar fact that but one
bunch of bananas grows on a tree.
After the fruit has been cut the tree la
then cut down to the ground, and from
the stump another tree sprouts which
bears another bunch the following
year. The greatest trouble of farmer*
Is to keep tbe farms clear of sprouts.
They sboot up from tbe roots of tbe
tree for a radius of ten feet and grow
like weeds.
As the fruit Is cut from the trees It
Is placed on the backs of little pack
donkeys and transported In this way
to the coast. One donkey can carry
from three to six bunches, according to
the size of tbe bunches and tbe dis
tance from the coast. In the season at
Baracoa there are more than 3.C»00 don
keys that stretch along In a line for
miles, plodding toward the coast witb
their loads cf bananas.
How many people dine alone? The
restaurants all number solitary diners
among their regular clientage. How
many thousands of people, men or wo
men, will eat a lone dinner or supper
tonight In the cities and towns and
Ua mlits of Christendom? The evil of
eating alone Is the subject of nn ear
nest although cheerful warning from
the Loudon Lancet. The byglonlc val
ue of gregarious dlulug Is insisted up
on. The necessity of taking food in
social fashion Is an Inherent racial sort
of thing, and those who go agnln.u It
for years usually have to pay for It
with some of the Ills of indigestion.
Hreakfastlng alone Is not bad for a
busy generation, but dining nlone Is
not a habit to be long continued. Id civ

results.
After tips have been collected they
are dipped In boiling brine and theu
