A PERSIAN SERVANT.
Ho Was Pocticrl Even if Useless and '
Diphonect.
In one way Persia reminds one dim
ly of England, for there are such things ;
as difficulties with servants even In I
Teheran. Tho ntithor dismissed one j
of bis servants, who. as be bad been 11 1
tailor, was incompetent to do anything
but sew on buttons. The man pro?
tested, "What will become of me nov
that I have l>eon eating your salt for
such a long time and am drlvou out
Into the streets?" Ho was reminded i
that he bad only been employed for n
fortnight, lie answered that he felt It i
bad been for yours. He was told that
bo was no good, but bis volubility on?
ly Increased. "How enn 1 be no good
after having stayed with you? Con j
you forget what Sa'dl said: 'A piece of
clay having fallen Into the Hnmmara
from my lveloved's bnnd Into mine, I
Bald to it, Art thou musk or nmbergrlB
thnt I am drunk with thy perfume,

swered: "I was but a worthless piece
of elny, but I was In company with a
rose for a moment. This companion- ;
ship transformed me or else I should
sflll 1k> the sumo piece of clay that I
was.*"
One can pity the state of an English
mistress confronted with such an at-- i
gutuent. The author kept bis servant j

When o state correspondent touch?
ed the bell fur admittance to David
Warn.'Id';: apartment a few days ago
he fancied h<- might he shown Into
a low celliugcd room with creahlug
centre tuhle mid loudly ticking clock
with an old fashioned decorated luce:
and he Imagined (he room doors i
would lend to a rumbling dlnlnr room,
with low windows hung with painted
shades, LrJtn carefully drawn to the
same level. In short, he believed thai
he was entering tho homey of Wes'
Dlgelow.
He was; but the home of Wes" lllge
low on the stag- of Ho- Stuyvcstint
Wat Mehl are different place? after all
So when tie- Iron door swung open
a Japanoso servant stood in waiting
And then the dream vanished, In
stead of mahogany chairs with era
oheted "tidl -s" glaring from tholi
backs, the eye rested on u carve'
marble bench and a stone fountain
centerpiece. Heavy green Velour poi
tleroa draped the entrance to a music
room, which held an art piano. It did
not lock a) all the sort of place In
which Wes' Itlgclow could strip off
Ids coat ami tilt back in his chair
telling the famous but short story of
how lie met the general.
And yet there stood Wes' Higr.low
In the Mesh, his big. honest eyes
beaming In a characteristic manner.
He led the way into a lounging room
with a marble mantel and Umpire Or?
naments, and (hen he curled up In a
billowy couch and blew a frame of
smoke about the whole picture.
"1 am curious- to know what you
want to Interview me about,'-1 began
Mr. Wnrlleld when the haae grev.
thick enough to invite confidences.
"About the civil war." frankly re
plied the reporter, and then the ac?
tor's face began to fold Itself Into
smiles ami lie gurgled nnil chuckled
?Just us he has done across the foot?
lights when the situation In the play
il imanded it of him. Hut this was no
play acting. He laughed honestly at
lib- own predicament and then be
freely admitted:
"I don't know anything at'iut the
civil war. I believe I've read some?
thing about it somewhere, but if you
came to talk about that you'll have
to do it all."
"Hut it has been suggested to me -
and that's why I'm here, on a Jour
nllstlc detail as you see?thnt yon. the
'Grand Army Man.' and Mr. Fran .
Kcciian, the General Warren in 'The
Warrens of Virginia, might forgather
and discuss the civil war. You repre
seilt the Yankee and lie the flobol?
On the stage?and the dehnte, which
l would jot down as I listened, would
he Important."
"No. It wouldn't." interrupted Mr.
Warllcld, "for there would not be any
debnte, Hansons? Plenty. Here are
two as a starter: 1 don't know any?
thing about the civil war um) I am
not a member of the (!. A. It. Yet
I don't mind admitting to you," and
here the nctor attain chuckled, "that
1 have hud Invitations to attend the
meetings of several posts since I be?
gan my season at the Stuyyesant
Theatre. And there are some U. A.
It. men about the theatre wlio acci?
dentally but continually call me 'Com?
mander.' I suppose I'll have to turn
up in the next Decoration Day parade
If Mr. Helasco doesn't call a matinee
on me."
"Seriously, though, have you not
made a special study of war veterans
in some small Indiana village and
watched their 'post' meetings?" ask?
ed Hie reporter.
"Certainly not. I don't copy peo?
ple, for I do not believe It possible
to portray a character Buccocafull)
that way. I read the lines of a play
and then think them out: 1 steep
myself In them; al-sorb them, and
then my lending of the part must
come from within, not from without,
isn't that right A character pro?
duced by the copying process of some
actors remains a copy always, while
the other method calls the actor's real
feeling!- Into play. I have been (oh1
that I have a sob in my voice which
touches Hie audience. Mnvbe I have
mnvlie I haven't; but I cannot so'
at will?I must feel Ihe emotions'
occasion for It. For Instance. I coup'
not sob for you now at this very mfn
nte, unless." and here Mr. Warfteld't
eye gleamed mischievously, "unles
you asked me that question about th<
civil war again."
The reporter promised not to do s<
and Mr. Warfleid continued:
"You'd doubtless have seen sonv
great actors, who in certain parts am'
certain limes did not hold their and1
ences. Now, when you put thnt It
the paper people will say: 'Nov

"Hut If you get on sttoh Intimate

John \v. Daltott, of dloucester,
known to mariners all along the Mas'
Hnchusetts coast, Is the Inventor of
the llOVlCo which Is known ns "Dal
ton's auto-slgna) safety breeches
buoy."
The Improvement, suvr the "8blentl>
tic American," comprises, speaking in
general terms, n small oase mounted
on an lutlaated rubber cushion and
surrounded by four small hollow posts
which are affixed to the rubber cush?
ion buoy and on lop to a Bipiaro steel
spr- a-.ler.
In the case Is a storage battery that
operates a set of lamps. One light, u
green one. shows toward the ship?
wreck when the device la started out i
to the vessel; the other light, n white!
one. shows down through tho rubber
cushion Into tho breeches, enabling
the shipwrecked people to see how to
get Into the apparatus. Another white]
light shows toward the shore until I
the breeches buoy Is occupied, when It
automatically turns to a bricht rod,
going hack to white again when the
passenger la landed.
Under the old system, when tho
breeches buoy was ><ent out to a
wreck, It wan often hauled back to
tl.hove tiy the lite -avers !?(. :o i;
had reached Its destination. Now tlv
position of tho breeches buoy will al?
ways bo known to those on Hbore and
on the wreck. The green light mov?
ing toward the vessel mutely lelltt
the shipwrecked passengers that help
is nt hand and encouraged thorn to
hold on until the buoy reaches them.
As soon as one of the Imperiled mar-)
Innrs gets Into tho breeches, the rad
light signals to those on land to haul
the passenger ashore. Hlgnnltng la
further provided for by a rocket dls
dlscbarged by tho same method,
which shifts (In- lights In the buoy
signal box.
The cartridge signal rocket, men?
tioned above, Is placed In the chain
b< r In the overhead cushion and Is
discharged In the air by the same- ac?
tion which shows the red light. This
la hardly heeded, however, as tho
