A Kail road Depot Agent's xperlenea JVith th General Manager. L A dozen of us were waiting at a rail road station in Georgia. . -As nobody knew how long we mist wait it -was only natmal ' that one after - another ehould go to the ticket window and in-' qnire. -' ;--'.' .; J-.:. "Dunno," was the gruff response to each inquirer. , ' That was about what was expected, and yet it didn't please. We got togeth er on the platform and discussed the matter, and while we were talking a man drove up to the depot from the town. Seeing the crowd, he came over and asked what was up. When he had been informed, he replied : " i "1 will try my luck with him and see how I come out" He made the same inquiry, and the agent looked up and replied : " How many more times am I going to tell you I dunno?" "Not more than once," said the gen tleman as he reached for a telegraph blank. ' , Five minutes later he showed us the dispatch. It was to a station agent SO miles away, and it read, "Leave assist ant in charge and come down and take full possession here. " The name at the end of the dispatch was that of the gen eral manager of the road. - "How much:" he asked as he handed it in to the agent, who was also operator. "This goes d. h.," replied tie man after reading it over. He began ticking it off as cool as you please, and when he had finished he rose up, put on his hat and overcoat and came into the waiting room- "Have you any idea when that train will be here?" quietly asked the man who sent the dispatch. " "She's just coming around the curve now. All aboard I replied the agent And as the train drew up he was the first one to board it, leaving the office to run itself till the other man could come down. "Did we come out much ahead on that deal?" I asked of the manager as we got seated os the train. "Well, n-o-o, I don't think we did," he drawled. "I guess I'll send the cheeky cuss back on the next train and raise his salary $5 a month." St. Louis Republic i . '. Northern Colony. In Georgia. Emigrants from the northwest con tinue td arrive in Americus in small parties, bound for Wilcox county, where 60,000 people from that region will set tle this winter On land purchased for the" Fitzgerald colony. Ex-Governor Northen is. now in Wilcox, where he has options on 50,000 acres of land in addi tion to that already purchased through him for the colony. Many of the colonists are Union sol diers. As soon as the chartex is granted the land will be surveyed into lots to suit purchasers, and 12,000 acres will be laid off into town lots. The streets will be wide, and doubtless it will be one of the best laid oS towns in the south. The site for the township has not been selected, nor has the name been suggested, but it is thought that one'of the most appropriate names that could be given is Northen City., The colonists will begin to arrive in full force about Oct. 1. It is claimed that many of the colonists are worth from $5,000 to $50,000. The company has a capital of $500,000. They will expend $350,000 in buying tne lanos, ana f iou.uuu in improvements. Sawmills and other in-; dustries will be established ; schools and churches will be established also. Those! who have come have met with a warm reception from the good people of that section, and a genuine old Georgia wel- come awaits those yet to come. Amer icus (Ga. ) Times-Recorder. - A New Restriction on Marriage. - A most ridiculous discussion arose ttie other evening at a cosmopolitan dinner party. Conversation flagged slightly, and a wicked Yankee launched an ap ple of discord in the shape of the state ment, now well known in London, that a bill was being framed in the house of lords forbidding a man to marry nls widow's cousin. A French lady made cuttins remarks about the established church of England and its restrictions. A French colonel ponderously declared that the depopulation of France would prevent the French eovernment from putting any such limitation on mar riage, which was already difficult enough in this fair land. Sundry Amer icans rejoiced in a Phariseelike manner over the absolute freedom of our own beloved country, as this rats evidently not a case of the prohiBited degrees, and finally the discussion bid fair to de generate into a serious dispute, when the author of this turmoil mildly sug gested that as yet no man had after his death taken any interest in any of his widow's female relatives, which put a sudden end to the political theological debate then raging. Philadelphia Tel egraph. . -. - ' Careful of Souvenirs. The Belgians are careful of their his toric souvenirs. In the front of a house situated in the Faubourg de Shaerbuch, in Brussels, there is to be seen half bur ied in the plaster a cannon ball which was fired from a Dutch cannon' at the period of the revolution of 1830 and has ever since been permitted to remain. Recently it was determined to restore, and refront the house, and it was de cided to make the repairs without dis turbing the cannon ball .r. - DELrcAtESSEN SMACKS. hrewd Students - of Cuisine Ara . Who Know How to Sell Goods. Were the'men .'who keep delicates sen stores- born with 'their .lips smacking? If not, they must have acquired the habit' soon after birth," or they would not be able to throw so much nnction into the smack as they da when they are pointing out the . savory qualities of the various articles in the stores. The delicates sen man has a watery eye, a rubi cund cheek and a mouth that seems to taste everything he has for saleJ He takes a long carving knife in his Jiand and delicately touohes with its point a piece of boiled ham. -: 'Very-:. good, " he -says confiden tially as he looks .' from you to the ham. "The best ham I ever tasted. (Smack.) Try a piece of this." A He cuts off a thin slice some two inohes square, and as you put it into your mouth he . smacks his lips to give it a flavor and looks at you ex pectantly with - his liquid ? eyes. Should you say you don't care much about the ham he looks mildly hurt and digs up a piece of cheese from a silvery covering, letting off a volley of smaoks as he does so. 'There, " he says, "that is a piece of honeysuckle from age, made among the mountains of Afghanis tan, with a dash of the bouquet that was so muoh m demand in Turkey in the days of the great Ali Bey." (Smack.) He says all this with: solemnity, though' you know he is inventing the whole story, and gives you a piece of cheese that curls up the edge of the cheese knife with its strength as he smacks his'; lips' and seems to think you should be carried away by the delioaoy. ' You arg almost, for it is strong enough to carry away any thing, and he sees that ; it is not a success! -! ; : H-lS't:.r---' But he is not beaten, for he brings out pickles from half a dozen wood-: en bowls, with an average of three smacks for each bowl, and hands the samples to you in a saticer, request ing you to' just' taste; that pickle, and I'm sure you will say it is-de-lioious.! (Smack.) - 1 The delicatessen man has a way of saying 'Delicious !" that - is almost as satisfying as a Delmonico feast, and you know, when you taste the pickle while he smacks his sympa thy, that it cannot be as good as his 'Delicious!" " The pickle is really very pleasant, and you buy a dime s worth-of it, while he smacks his way to the pile of paper in which to wrap the wood en dish and smacks as he gives you 40 cents in change out of your half dollar. You take up your pickle, but the delicatessen man has not done with you yet j He smacks over a highly 6piced jar of funny shaped fish and then cunningly leads your attention to some preserves, and some salad dressing, and some aromatic vine gar, and some fresh tomatoes, and some particularly good coffee that he has just bought that morning, as he tells you, and, what with the whiffs of different things and his smacks and his seductive talk, by the time you leave the store your' arms are full of odd packages and he haks that first half dollar and an other one as well. I He smaoks y ou " Good afternoon, ' and as you go out you say to your self, "That delicatessen man is too much for me. " Of course he is. He is too-much for anybody when he knows his business and can put in the smacks at the right moments. New York Press, A Very Thirsty Dog. A young Wissahickon man, so the tale goes, owned a dog of mongrel breed whioh had added to its one great , undesirable quality of low birth the more offensive one of the mange. The young man determined to sever his connections with the animal, and with that end in view he secured a large wash tub and put staples in the inside of it, with ropes attached to them, to securely hold the dog and keep its head under wa ter. He caught the dog just as it came in after a long tramp in the dusty roads. The doomed animal was preparing to slake its thirst at tiie hydrant -when its master grab bed it and tied it down m the tub. Then he turned on the water and let it run until the dog's head was totally submerged. He couldn't bear to see the poor brute suiter, so he went away for a quarter of an hour. He came back,' expecting to find the dog dead. Strange to say, however, the doe was very much alivo. There was no water in the tub. Neither was there any leak in it. The dog had simulv auenched his thirst. Philadelphia Record. i- The Orator. The Rev. Dr. A. D. Mayo, in a re cent interesting address, quoted James Walker, a former president of Harvard, as saying, "Tne oration win aie witn Mr. RobertC. Winthrop." But the ora tion in no sense died with Mr. Win throp. What is more, the oration, we may be sure, will never die until hu man nature is fundamentally different from what it is at present. It is the fashion n6wadays to sneer at eloquence. One might as weir sneer at musio or poetry. Walker's reference to Winthrop was fine, considered as a compliment. Taken literally,: it will not hold water. It recalls an assertion made by Mr. Howells a few years ago that the stories had all been told. In fact, hasty gen eralizers are always with us. People are more critical than they used to be, they are more easily bored, they have less time for anything than they ever had before. Nevertheless the man with a genius for oratory, the man who has something to say and who knows how to say it who can say it with a silver tongue is a perennial He will always command an audience. Boston Com monwealth. f - ' ' Mozart. : Mozart bad a memory for musio and for nothing else. On attending the papal mass at the Sistine chapel he was great ly Impressed with the musical service and asked for a copy, but was told none could be given him, as the musio was not allowed to go oat. He went to the next service, listened attentively, went away and wrote down the whole from memory. When "Don Giovanni" was first performed, there' was not time to copy a part for the harpsichord, so Mozart conducted the , entire opera, about ; three hours long, and played a narpslcnord accompaniment to tne songs and choruses without a note . of musio to assist his memory. This country imports from Greece an nnallvmanv thousand pounds of bo call ed dried currants, which are really small raisins. f ' WHAT 3"6 EAT AND WHEN. fcho Boles to Regulate Diet to Age and. s - L ' " Occupation. v An adult in average health 're quires; as a 'rule, about three meals a day and - these may bo arranged as follows: Breakfast at 8:30, lunch at I ;30, dinner at ?. . : ' - ' In country places, where dinner is taken in the middle of the day, a light tea is taken at 5 and supper at 8,Jand when there , is late dinner a cup of ' tea may, as a rule, bo taken. without eating at 6 o.'olook. ! i The. tendency in adults is very touch toward overeating, for food is not required in the adult body in or der to supply growth, but only to support waste of tissue. It is there fore evident that those who lead a comparatively . idle . life r without muoh exertion, either mental ' or physical, require 'very much - less food than those who are engaged in active occupations. .-" : x j ; I Business men.whohave to be mov ing about much in the middle of the day should not take heavy lunch eons, but should make their chief meal in the evening. The practice of taking soup at the beginning of dinner is based on a sufficiently scientific principle, ; as when a small ouantitv - of strong. good soup is taken the liquid that is rapidly absorbed into the blood re freshes and stimulates and prepares the way for more solid meals. : ' Sufferers from indigestion, how ever, of ten find that they cannot take soup, and these should also avoid taking strong tea or coffee after dinner, as they retard ' the process of digestion. ' Some persons who have slow di gestions do best with very long in-" tervals between their meals," others: need food mora frequently, and if they do not have it at -frequent in tervals the appetite passes off and they are unable to eat, and grow weak. " . . - As a rule, women require less food than men, as their bodies are small er and tney do not generally lead such active lives, but they very often injure their healtbyery much by living principally on tea and toast, cakes and other innutritious articles of1 diet when they have no male relatives present to stimulate them by the force of example into taking more nourishing articles of food. . Elderly persons of either sex are, as a rule, unable to digest or assimi late food in tho same way as in their ounger days, owing to the pro gressing degenerative changes in the glands and lessened absorbent power in the alimentary canal. The amount of food taken at a timo should be small, and the inter vals between meals rather short. When, as in many cases, it is the habit to awaken about 4 o'clock in the morning, a little food, such as a Cup of cocoa or warm" milk or beef tea, will often insure sleep after ward. All farinaceous foods should be submitted to high temperatures for some time, so as to render the gran ules of starch easy to digest, for owing to the lessened activity of the ;lands and lessened power of masti- ation the food in old people is, like that of young children, not sufficient- y subjected to the action of ptyalin in the mouth. Stewed celery and cooked Spanish onions are very nice for old people, and old gentlemen have been known to take Spanish onions cooked in milk habitually for supper, saying tbat this induces sleep. Lady's Pictorial. . It Worked Both Ways. Little Jacky had two apples, which he had saved from dessert. There was company in the room, and one of the gentlemen thought it would be a good opportunity to give Jacky a lesson in manners. So he called the boy and said: - . "I see you have two apples, Jacky. Won't you give me one?" Jacky hesitated, looked rather rue fully at his prizes and finally offered the smaller one. This was what the gentleman had expected, and he pro ceeded to expatiate upon it, ending with: " , "Now, Jacky, whenever you have anything to give away you should always keep the poorest for your self." ' ; - This might be good manners, but it didn't harmonize with Jacky 's desires. So he ruminated over it awhile, and then stuok out the oth er fist. "Take t'other one, too, " he said generously. The gentleman was congratulating himself on his success, when Jacky tunned him by saying : "Now, won't you please give me tne?" Boston Standard. j EGYPTIAN CIVILIZATION. Its Origin Remain One of the Unsolved Enigmaa of the World. - The origin of Egyptian civilization has been the enigma of the 'world for the past 85 centuries. Presenting no historio or even mythic infancy, it appears before the world at once as a highly civilized and or-. ganio community centuries before Moses was a boy. Upon this subject Kenan snys, "Egypt has no archaic epoch, bnt sudden ly takes its place in the world in all its matchless magnificence, without father ; and without mother and as clean apart ! from all evolution as- if lt had dropped from the unknown heavens." Would not an explanation at least feasible be found in the h vDothesis ihat it received its civi lization from some source no longer exist ing?
