How Could the Poor Frenchman Tell
What It Conld Do f
While in Chicago M. tie Monvel, the
French artist, heard one story that pnz
zled him. It was told at a dinner party,
and he smiled jnst as if he' nnderstood
it. That night he thonght it over, bnt
the more he thonght the less he com
prehended it Finally a fellow artist
who had heard the story repeated it,
drew pictures of it, and then a light
broke on M. de Monvel, and he langhed.
"Ah, we Frenchmen are stupid when
compared with the Americans!" he ex
claimed. "I shall tell that story, and it
will mate Paris langb. "
The little tale was about a French
carpenter who bought a saw from a
Chicago manufacturer who made a .
specialty of advertising. Engraved on
the tool was the assurance that "day in
and day out thie saw will wear longer
than any other on the market." The
Frenchman read the advertisement,
and the day he bought the saw he put
it carefully away. The next day he
used it and left it out of doers in the
pouring rain. A neighbor remonstrated
with him for his carelessness, and he
picked up the saw, pointed to its in
scription and exclaimed :
"Does not le ecie-no, I mean ze saw
say un jour in et un jour out-ne
day in and one day out and zis will
wear longer than all ze saws? I have

WASHINGTON LETTER.
PraUe For Minister Bryan Washington
experts and Milk-The New Oua
todian at -Count Vernon.
Special- Correspondence. 1
In the Qazeta de Petronolia. vhinh
haa reached here, is a characteristically
Brazilian comment on the American
minister, Colonel Charles Page Bryan of
Chicago. After commenting on typqs
of society the paper says : "From among
such I take pleasure in selecting the
representative of the great American
nation, tiia great stature, his sym
pathetic countenance, his gestures,
which are those of a highborn gentle
man, the kindness of his speech, the
naturalness with which he is alwavs a
perfect gentleman, make the illustrious
diplomat one of the most beloved per
sonages of this country. In his salon,
where are to be found beautiful objects
or art, rare bibelots, splendid nictures.
the elite of our world meets eminent art
ists, learned professors, litterateurs.
bankers, by the side of young men who
nave as their only recommendation
some talent and cherish in their souls
the blessed light of hope.
"Colonel Bryan symbolizes perfectly
his great country, on whose flag the
stars shine. Knowing how to maintain
the dignity of his high position, he
seems always to have in mind the fact
that in his powerful nation labor and
talent are the forces that distinguish
and-elevate the man. It is because of
this that he has always a kind speech.
an affectionate smile for all, without
looking to see whether they have al
ready reached the social heights or
whether they are struggling still in the
shadowy valley of conflict."
Washington Experts and Milk.
The Washington Medical society has
recently been making some valuable
bacteriological studies on milk, with a
view of seeing how far the milk sold in
this city is a proper food and to what
extent it is likely to be dangerous in
transmitting disease. The special com
mittee which has been conducting these
investigations is made up of Drs.
Adams, Kober and De Schweinitz. In
a recent report made to the society-by
Dr. De Schweinitz he aid:
"In April and May, 1898, I obtained
through the health officer, Dr. Wood
ward, and in January, 1899, through
one of the health office inspectors,. Dr.
Turner, samples of milk taken from
different dairy wagons in the city.
Thirty-one different samples of milk
were examined. Of these one showed
only about 4,000 bacteria per cubic cen
timeter; one, 2,500 per cubic centi
meter; five others, between 10,000 and
15,000; six between 30,000 and 50,000
per cubic centimeter, and the remainder
more than 50,000 per cubic centimeter,
in several instances running over 150,
000 per cubic centimeter."
The New Custodian at Mount Vernon.
Edmund Parker, the gray haired oc
togenarian who had been in charge of
Washington's tomb from his fourteenth
year and was formerly a servant in the
Washington family, died early in the
winter, and bis place has been taken
by another of his race, Thomas Bush
rod, who was brought up in the fami
lies of the Lees and Fitz-Hughs. He is a
"reg'lar ole plantation darky" and
might have stepped out of the pages of
Uncle Remus or Thomas Nelson Page.
His politeness is greater than Chester
field's. It is the politeness of the old
uncle of slavery days, and even to the
bustling crowd of the end of the cen
tury is extremely gratifying. The old
man, in a word, is typical of the sec
tion from which he comes, and no bet
ter custodian of the sacred relics at
Mount Vernon could have been selected.
"Why Not by Kail ?n
Hinton Rowan Helper, who created
a good deal of excitement in this coun
try many years ago by writing a book
about "An Impending Conflict," is liv
ing in Washington, and he has written
to one of the newspapers to dispute the
right of John A. Lyz.ch to be credited
with having first proposed an intercon
tinental railway. Lynch asserts that he
framed the proposition for a railway to
connect North and South America
somewhere along in the eighties. Mr.
Helper answers that he conceived of
the idea in 1866, while suffering from
seasickness on a long passage from
Buenos Ayres to New York. It was
about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, he
says, when he was "taxing his mind"
to contrive a pleasanter way for him
self to make the journey, that the idea
flashed across him, "Why not by rail?"
Since then, he says, the accomplish
ment of that object has been the chief
aim of his life, and he hopes to live to
have "the very great pleasure and sat
isfaction of journeying all the way by
rail from Alaska to Patagonia."
Women's Whist Congress.
The women's whist congress con
cluded its business sessions by electing
officers for the coming year. Mrs. Clar
ence Brown of Toledo was advanced
from first vice president to be president
and Mrs. Waldo Adams of Boston from
second to first vice president. Mrs.
Charles Williams of Philadelphia' was
elected second vice president. Mrs. O.
D. Thompson cf Pittsburg, secretary,
and Mrs. Silas W. Pettit of Philadel
phia, treasurer, were re-elected. The
four retiring members of the board of
governors, the Vicomtesse de Sibour of
Washington, Miss Kate Wheelock of
Milwaukee, Mrs. Lucian Swift of Min
neapolis and Miss Susan D. Biddle of
Philadelphia, were re-elected for three
years, and Mrs. Benjamin Gillam was
chosen to fill an existing vacancy. De
troit was selected as the place for hold
ing the third annual congress next
spring.
Preparations are being made by tne
