• He was particularly well-groomed

through the lobby of one of our most
fashionable hotels, says the New York

an old-time friend of mlne-'supper'
they calved it-and his wife put some
raised dougrhnuts on the table that.
When I bit into one, put me right
back in the old kitchen at home when
I was a boy."
"That's so---that's so!" declared a
white-haired man who wore a stock
-not because the hunting set have
made them fashionable again, but be
cause he had always worn one. "My
daughter-in-law has good help and I
she's a fine cook herself; but the
other day I was rummaging around
in the basement of our warehouse and
I came across the porter's dinner pail. i
I opened it to see what the boy's wife
gave him for luncheon, and there was
a big slab of apple pie right on top. It
looked Just like what my aunt used to
make years ago. I couldn't resist the
temptation, and I left half a dollar
on deposit for the pie and eat up s
every lst crumb of it. Why, I could
reemember getting licked for hooking c
a piece that tasted just like that out e
of the pantry-for my aunt was a
strict disciplinarian.
"But then,"; added the old man re
fectively, "that couldn't have been E
Just like my aunt's pies, if it die taste
so, for I couldn t sleep a wink that B
night for the trouble it gave me."
"Reminds me of what the steward
of the Palmer House in Chicago told u
me once," said a third member of the a
group. "When Gen. Grant stopped ti
there on his return from his. tour of tl
the world one noon the steward was It
all but stupefied at seeing the ex-Presi- si
Gent slide in. at the kitchen door, as b
'though escapitfg from some one. h
"'I am sorry to trouble you,' he said, g
as though asking a great favor, 'but 1
may I have a little corned beef and n
cabbage?" o0
S"'Why, certainly,' the steward re- w
plied, 'but slia'n't I send it .out to you m
in the dining room?' di
" 'No,' he aniswered, 'I'll eat it right tl
here it you'll let me sit down.' al
"So a place on the rough board' ta re
ble, where the cook had bet1i fixing' fe
the meat, was cleared and Grant drew , w
up a stool and set to. And the way pi
he got away with that corned beef la
and cabbage was a caution. When W
he had finished he laid down his knife o0
and fork with a funny sigh of satis- re
faction, put one hand on the steward's ar
shoulder, and said: m
"'Young man, I don't. suppose you fe
care for that at all, but if you had w
had to eat what I have for the past ar
few' montas it would taste like a din- w'
net' for the gods. It tastes homey!' Ju
"The ex-President had, dined with
everybody from the Queen. down, but
that cabbage and corned bee: doubt
less reminded him of the time when
he was not so well known, but prob- mi
ably far happier-when people in St. pr
Louis called him 'Captain' when they Hl
spoke to him atnd bought the wood he
carted into town to sell."

Frog farming as an industry is a
asming large proportions in many
parts of Canada. Not only are large
shipments of frogs' legs made from
this country to the United States, but
there is a growing demand for the lux
ury in many of the, large centers of
the Domiinion, says the New York
Sun.
One of the most successful frog
farms is in Ontario. Last year it pro
duced 5.000 pounds of dressed frogs'
legs, and 7,000 living frogs for scienti
fic purposes and for stocking other
waters.
The deputy commissioner of fisher
les for Ontario reports that in the
past year a number of applications
were made to the governmenti for
leases of lands suitable for this indus
try. No licenses were, however.
granted, as it was found that the ter
ritory concerned was already being
farmed by a number of people.
It is safe to assume that in the very
near future much land now idle will
be stocked with frogs. All that is
necessary for this purpose is to place
a few paired breeders in the water.
Natural food is almost always present
in sufficient amount for successful
growth.

most profitable, on account of its size.

EXPERIENCE OF A YOUNG AUTHOR
Georgli Writer Who Pictured Himself
with the Laurel Wresth.
Dickens has interpreted for all of
us the feelings of the young writer
when he forwarded his first contribu
tion to the editor. The following lit
tle story of experience in that line is
ild by a Georgia' writer: "My first
sketch and poem I dropped in a little
box, then hung around.the box for twb
hours, until the postman came and
gathered its contents. The articles
were sent to a daily paper in uay
native town, and for a whole week the
office where, that paper was printed
was the supreme object of interest to
me. 1 was up and dressed long before
daylight every morniLg-, watching for
the carrier. Then, when he made his
appearance, I met him at the door and
received the paper, which I almost
feared to open lest the absence of my
work would bring another 'flashing
pang' of bitter disappointment. At
last my sketch-my poem-appeared
with 'Written specially for The Times
over both of them! The boy had
reached the gate but I called him back
and gave him a dollar. Then I lockea
myself in my room and sat down and
felt good, and looked out upon the
world and saw that it was beautiful,
and wondered when the messenger
would call around with the laurel and
just how it would look on my head."
Doing ris Best Friend.
In his office down town this young
man is looked upon as a person of
probity and fine moral sensibilities.
He does not have to be all that to
keep his place, for he is rich, and
though he is the junior partner he
supplies the main part of the capital
and most of the commercial clever
ness, says the New York Post. Every
year or two he goes west to pick up
some branded ponies for his polo
string, selling off those which cannot
be easily taught the game. or that
have "gone wrong" in wind. limb or
yesight. His elderly partner who
was his guardian during minority, and
Rho believes in him utterly as one
whom he himself has molded by pre
oept and example, caught this part of
what the young man was telephoning
:he other day:
"Now be careful, James; Mr. Fres
ing may come to-day to see that blue
'oan mare. You'd better give her a
tint of whisky, stuff a sponge up her
rose, and inject a little cocaine into
er hind leg."
"Dless, my soul!" exclaimed the old
nan: "what are you doing?"
"Only selling a horse to my best
rend." the young man answered.

f" DEAR MRS. PINKHAM :-I suffered four y(ars ago with a tumor
in my womb, and the doctors declared I must go to the hospital pnd un.
dergo an operation, which I dreaded very much and hesitated to bubmit;.
,' My husband consulted an old friend who had studied medicine,
although he was not a practising physician, and he said he believed
that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound would cure-: ,z
me. That same day I took my first dose, and I kept it up faithfully
until twelve bottles had been used, and not only did the tumor dis- .
appear, but my general health was very mush improved and I had
not felt so well since I was a young woman.
"As I have suffered nro relapse since, and as I took no other aime&d
icine, I am sure that your Compound restored my health and I ,believe
saved my life."-MRs. D. ARNOLD.
