An old lady applied at a registry of ??ce for a maid. "I want a iittie giri, between eight een and twenty-two years of age, wbo ls fond of mushrooms." "Fond of mushrooms?" inquired the ?gent "That ls something I never Inquire about from my applicants. I don't understand." "Well, I am very fond of mushrooms myself, and there are so many mis takes made. The Idea came to mc sev eral years ago, and it was a dispensa tion of Providence that it did or I should have been killed. I make my maid eat a portion of all mushrooms brought to my house before any are ?erred to me. I always require it," replied the old lady.

The late Anna Louise Cary once figured in an amusing incident at one of the monthly, meetings of the Boston Clef club. The club was ?composed exclusively o? men all in ?teieated. directly or indirectly in muwvand at the meetings tho best Ol entertainment was always pro? vided by the members themselves. 'Among these were the two brothers, Will and John Winch, who at this time were in great demand owing to" their beautiful voices. Will Winch possessed a magnificent bass and John an equally fine tenor. On tho occasion in question their con tribution to the evening's entertain ment vas a novel composition of their own, a supposed duet between an old, world experienced tomcat and his hot headed, impatient son, who had fallen hopelessly in love with a sleek tabby of the neighbor hood. Seating themselves on the edge of the platform on which stood noth ing save an ordinary Japanese screen, the two singers began their amusing performance, which opened with a stern upbraiding of the youthful . back fence prowler by his more prudent and experienced father. The reply was given by the tenor, who, breaking forth into an impassioned love song, poured forth his whole soul in the praise of his mistress and of the divine passion. Having reached the, highest tone of his voice, Winch struck a single falsetto note, and then followed a series of the purest, the most beau tiful, birdlike notes to which the dumfounded hearers had ever lis tened. And still the wonderful voice soared upward. A moment and the final height was reached, and the song abruptly ceased. From behind the screen a woman's laugh ing face appeared-that of Anna Louise Cary-and the mystery was one no longer. It was she who had carried on tho song from the mo ment of the striking of the falsetto note, and so well had the deception been carried out that not one of those present had doubted that he was still listening to the voice of John Winch.-New York Post. The Abbotsbury Swannery. Some interesting particulars are given in the London Magazine of the Abbotsbury swannery, which is stated to be the largest in Great Britain. This is situated on the Fleet, a long stretch of brackish water lying within the Chesil Beach, near Weymouth. Tradition holds that this swannery is over 800 years old, and there is documentary evi dence that it existed in the time of the Tudors. On a stretch of low marshy ground adjoining the Fleet the swans assemble in March and April for nesting, and last spring there were over 400 nests placed closely together, the entire swannery con taining 1,150 birds. The birds nair for life, in that respect resembling the carrion crow, this being the most meritorious point in the natu ral history of that not very popular bird. -Although each of the 400 nests of Abbotsbury contains on an aver age six eggs, of which four or five are hatched/ so great is the waste of life among the young cygnets that only thirty or forty new birds are added to the flock each year. .? Currant Juice. If the stomach is deficient in gas tric juice so that the unused food lies there as a weight and presently sends toward the throat volumes of acrid gas, indicating a disagreeable phase of indigestion and later giv ing its victim* sick headache, then currant juice should be taken. This will Work upon the acids of the food, stimulate the stomach coats and compel the slow gastric juice to-do its work. The evil gas will depart and the headache will go by this natural medicine. Tho strained juice of either red or black currants stewed with but little sugar will answer the purpose well. Information For a Stranger.

Robert Lome Stevenson wi* about as strong a lover of the United States as it would be possible for any man to be. One night he was present at a dinner at the British exchange in Honolulu, an annual affair, to wbioh all the prominent men were invited. He consented to attend upon receiving the express promise of the presiding officer that ho wouldn't be askod to do anything, and therefore ooly the f ow men in his corner of the table had the pleasure of enjoying his talk as the dinner warmed up with all hands and the wine went around. The favors 'were tiny American and British flags of silk, designed to fit into small sil ver holders that were providod. An Englishman present at the dinner, who had only lately arrived in Hono lulu, and who had dined too freely, picked up the tiny American flag at bi.? plate and insolently swashed it around in a big stein of ale before him. while he grinned contemptuous* ly. An athletic young Amerioan naval officer closo by him saw the action, and called the Englishman to account for it. "That's absent-mind edness, of course, on your part?" in quired the naval officer, "No," said the Englishman, continuing to soak the American flag in his ale. Steven son got to his feet-, his eyes very wrathful. "You should be chastised for that," he sa*d to the Englishman. The officer invited the Englishman to stand up, and when he did so, he was knocked flat by the naval officer's fist. The dinner broke up in disorder, and the offending Englishman was barred from the olub from that night.-Tho Pilgrim. .- m m - i Cotton in ? Bad Way.

TURKEY HUNTING AN ART. Wild Fowl Can Dtatinaulah Marks ot j s Human Being. The successful turkey hunter is probably the most scientific sports man in the world. He matches him self against the acutest of all feath ered things. Tho turkey is not only gifted* with (extraordinary sight, hearing, wari ness and. alertness/but it knows the woods better1 than any*mero man can know them,.and it has distinct ly tho faculty/of casualty, or reason. A turkey knows not only that the appearance of a certain part of the ground is not right, but also why it is not right. It will distinguish readily be tween marks of passage made by a wild animal and a human being. Ne groes assert that it can smell pow der, just as they believo that a cow can smell powder, but thero is no ev idence that its sense of smell is spo- ] cially developed. Its power of flight is not great, nor is it enduring on foot. There aro many animals which prey upon it and can outrun it. It has had to depend for preservation upon its intellect, and this intellect has como to be remarkably developed. Tho turkey is not hard to find and kill when it is gobbling from a treetop in tho early spring morn ing, but the person who goes after one later in the day must know his business. It is sometimes taken in traps made of logs and roofed with branches, there being an en trance under the bottom log. Once inside, having been tolled thero by parched corn grains,. it travels around and around looking for an exit higher than its head. It is sometimes slain, too, by be ? ing led to a shallow trench dug in the woods and sprinkled with parched corn, a V shaped blind hav ing been prepared thirty yards away, li shot legitimately, however, at any. time save at daybreak or when flying into its roost at night, it must be called to the hidden gun, and in this tho science of the hunter is made manifest.-Chicago Inter Ocean. Old Piratea' Laws. The customs and regulations most commonly observed on board a buc caneer aro worth noting. Every pi rate captain doubtless had his own set of rules, but there were certain traditional articles that seem to have been generally adopted. The captain had the state cabin, a double vote in elections, a double share of booty. On some vessels it was the captain who decided v/hat direction to sail in, but this and other mat ters of moment were oftener settled by a vote of the company, the cap tain's vote counting for two. The officers had a share and a half or a share and a quarter of all plunder and the sailors one share each. Booty was divided with scrupulous care, and marooning was the penalty of attempting to defraud tue general 'company if only to the amount of a goldpiece or a dollar. Every j man had a full vote in every affair of importance. Arms were always to be clean and fit for service, and desertion of the ship or quarters hi battle was pun ished with death, i ------ Tapped the Trusts.

The trusts are going to I help the Democrats for the reason j mentioned in this correspondence be ' fore, namely, that by making the House D?mocratie with a Republican Senate, nothing can be done to the hurt of the trusts. This is an off year, and capitalists find that two years are long enough to patch up peaoe and bring trouble some poople to terms.
