Ttotrt A* Thrtt Kindt Trick? to
O^Jfl Ttat Whilt Fighting.
' Duels are common enough in I
, France nowadays, but they are robbed
of their picturesque side, says
Fouscv.oid Brigade Magazine,
'iney may be divided into three
< caiegories, which I place in the orI;
dcr of their frequency of occurrence journalists'
duels, duels that
are the outcome of a tongue too
veil hung or lubricated by an over$
do-eof alcohol, and, thirdly, those
where the opponents are out to kill
if tl.rr can. The above order also
represents the degree of publicity
accompanying each.
Of those due to an ill considered
or ill bred remark comparatively
few come to an interchange of shots
or thrusts, but fizzle out after an
interchange* of cards. Morning
brings a more reasonable frame of
mind, and things are quieted down
by; those unfortunate individuals
who have been selected as seconds.,
When such enco^p^* do take pface
at least one of the principals is only
too desirous for privacy to be main/tained,"
the safest possible conditions
are arranged, and one only
hears about the affair, after it is all
over.
The materials-ior. disagreement
are usually a night restaurant tad
the cme ..extra bottle which^ might
have been dispensed with. Only
recently a respectable married man
f^und himself confronted in com.
bat by an unknown Argentine with
ufcom he had apparently had a disagreement
the night before at a
well known second rate coemopolC:.
imn cafe much frequented betweenabout
2 a.m. and breakfast time.'*
$ Neither of the gentlemen knew
qaite ,what H was all about, but
Weir seconds said it was All right,
ao they had to go through with it,
toad no harm was done. The third
t|pe of duel is serious and rery
rare. It usually takes the form of
*row about a lady.'
There are a good many tricks to
tain time in dueling. Dropping the Word
is one, resting the point, on
tbe ground or me king a wide parry
go aa to scrape the ground is another
la either of these eases tire
point has to be sandpapered and
treated with.an antiseptic or hold

risk of a wound being poisoned.
With piatoH the conditions 1 are
arranged according to the serifusr
neaa of the quarrek As a rule, dueling
pistols at twenty-five paces are
* used. The dueling pistol is mn&le
loaded and rifled. . pull oft
regulated bj the circnn?tancer,
also the powder charge. Seconds
often arrange to pat in only suffi-i
cient powder to drive, the bullet out
of the bore. Sometimes they drop
the bullet into the leffhand when
loading and hammer an imaginary
one down the barrel.
Sermon In a Few Werde.
We are very much impressed by
something we saw and heard while
passing along the street a few eveningB
since. A young girl was standing
in front of a store, and nea^ her,
with 'a mihgdog Expression on his
face, was a young stripling of a,
youth. As we passed the two the
girl said to the boy, "Any on* who
speaks of my fathdr as the old man'
is not worthy of ay yespech" From
the tone of her roice we knew that
the girl spoke from the impulse of
a moment, but there eras a fhole
sermon in her utterance. I We don't
know the girl, but if she lires she
>?rill develop into s noble woman^
hood, and the world will be better,
for her haying lived in it And the
boy, if he has any redeeming qualities
in him, will profit by the lesson
given him in that one sentence.

The fines? eoffee substitute ever
made, has recently been produced bj
Dr Shoop of Racine, Wis. Ton
don't bare to boil it twenty or thirty
minutes. "Made in a minute" says
the doctor, "f^ealtb Coffee" is realty
the closest ooffee imitation ever
yet prodnped. Not p gain of real
coffee in it either. Health coffee
imitation is made from port toasted
cereals, or grains,,-with malt, nuts,
ett. Really it would fool an expert -were
he to unknowingly drink
it for coffee.
