The -man who comes to New York only once in ten years said he could not understand why the bears in Oen- tral park seemed so much more stud; lip than the rest of the animals, but after he had traveled about town fot several days he saw through it. It was because 99 per cent of the furriers in town have 'chosen a big black bear tot an advertising sign. Why the other an- imals in the zoo should be so discrimi- nated against puzzled the man not a tittle. One day he asked a furriet about it '"It is because the bears last longer than anything else," said the furrier. "Of. all the animals in New York I don't know of any that have a hardet time than those that stand outside fur- riers' stores winter and summer and try to drum up trade for their employ- ers. It doesn't make any difference what kind of weather comes along, whether it blows hot or cold, these fel- lows have to stand at their post .and ff welter or freeze, as the ease may be. Naturally all those changes are pretty hard on their hide, and none but bears can stand the strain. Some furriers have tried the fox, the lynx and other animals Dew and then at a venture, but they have mostly come back to the bear as the most satisfactory of the lot. They cost more too. A good stuffed bear comes as high as $75, but if he is treated well he will last for twenty- five years, so that brings him down to a comparatively low price aft& all." Charles A. Dana's Logic. They tell a good story of Charles A. Dana- how Dana once summoned a boy reporter and said, "Tomorrow you write up the yacht race." "But," Said the lad, "I don't know how; I'm a Nebraskan. I only came here last night, sir, and I haven't so much as seen New York -harbor yet. As for yachts -why, I never saw a yacht in my life!" "Just the reason I sent for you, my boy! You'll write a story that people can read; you'll picture the thing; you'll write with enthusiasm because it's all new to you." Sane logic! The poetry of the sea has 'always been written by landsmen; it tdways will be. The barrack room bal- lads are best sung by a gentle civilian. The inside of anything is clearest seen by an erstwhile- outsider. Mr. Bryce, not Mr. Lodge, writes "The American Commonwealth." Emerson, not Car- lyle, writes "English Traits." -Rollin Lynde Hartt in Atlantic. Why He Should Learn Spanish. One of the most brilliant series of the Gobelin tapestries represents the surprising adventures of Don Quixote. Louis XV.. had a great affection for the doughty chevalier. One day he said to a great gentleman of his court:. "Do you know Spanish?" "No, sire," said the other. "All, it is a great pity." The seigneur, thinking, at the least, the king was going to offer him the ambassadorship at Madrid, put him- self with extraordinary zeal to the mastery of Spanish. In a few weeks lie came back to his royal master and, with a conquerbr's air, said: "Your 'majesty, I have learned Span- ish." "My compjiments," said Louis. "Read 'Don Quixote' in Spanish. It is much tier than in French." Not the 'Usual Result. "How can you afford to give away these salt pickles with your meals?" asked the man who dined cheaply at the little German restaurant around the corner. "Alt, but you forget they make the awful thirst," said the proprietor. "The awful thirst makes trade for the bar. Is it not the clever idea?" "They certainly do make one thirsty," said the man at the table. "I feel those I've eaten already. Bring me" - Tho proprietor's face was a study in expectancy. "Bring me another glass of water!" . Stated- a Pact. A clergyman highly esteemed for his many excellent qualities, of which ora- tory is not one, has recently had placed in his church by his loving congrega- tion a new pulpit. It is a fine piece of work, ornate with carving and artistic embellishment. But the text inscribed on it, considering the effect of the good rector's sermons, might have been more happily chosen. giveth his beloved sleep," it runs. Proved His Case.

The Way It Enables the Animal to ' Eat Hickory 1Vutio. "P ople often wonder how it Is that a hog can get all the kernel out cf a hickary nut, or any other kind of nut for that matter, without swallo ing any �f the shell," said a man from tire country, "but aS a matter of fact tl4ero is nothing mysterious about the p oc- ess. hiind you, bogs don't swallow iny of these harde substances. They get rid of them, ani then it ha just as easy for there to get rid of the shell of a nut as it is for a of an or a squirrel. You might think oecause a hog cru hes the nut into snail fragments that he would necessar ly swallow a good or - tion of the hull But he doesn't do tny such thing. "Iki is a con eded fact among 4ien who know any hing about the sub ect that he horse the moat perfectly on- structed anima in the world, consit er- ing the purpose for which the horse is used and its m thod and habits in fe.

The Japanese divide the twenty-four hours into twelN e periods, of which six belong to the ni lit and six to the day, their day begim hag ateunrise and end- ing at sunset Whether :the day or night be Ion or short, there ard alwaye six periods in each. To attal this the characteror numerals on th scale 'are adjustable. Two of them are set, one to agree i.with the sunris the other with suni3et, and the four c aracters between them :divide the space into equal portions. Thus, when t e period of dayligh is :longer than th night, the day hcarrs , will he propo tionately longer than -those at uight. Another pecu iarity in their scale is that they use orly, six characters, those from four to nine, and these read back- ward. -London 4ilxpress Didn't ildove on Time.

Popular Fete Day la Belgium Whose Origin Is • a .1tlYstery. The first Monday after Epiphany is a ete day throughout Belgium. 7Lost londay" it is called; exactly why no ne seems able to explain. The Origin f the fete is lost in- the- legends or the niddle ages, 'but the modern accepta- ion of the- day is certainly lost to no ne there. Like Mardi Gras,' Lost.Mon-• lay. is a day of general :merrymaking. very cafe and restaurant in BrnsseIs :ceps ."open house," and free di•inks are on hand for all patrons of tbe es- tablishment, and -as a matter_ of fact for many others as well who ar not regular patrons. .. On Black Monday, then, as it is iron- ically called by some of the naltives not overenchanted with the day l the streets .of Brussels are given over to the people, and the adventurousifor- igner, who, ignorant of the conntry's eistoms, ventures Out, is apt to find Um . the Belgian populace iseDO respect - r of persons'. On this day the shopkeep- rs, sighing behind their counters, find hems,elves compelled to hand OV r to heir ,customers' servants a forced con- ribution, amounting to a certain per - tentage of the year's purchases, while he !bakers, too, haVe a contribution to • offer in the shape of cakes specially i .ade for the occasion and offered, as ifts, to their clientele. In this manner the unique fete is per- etuated, though the calendar does not ote in any particular manner the first onday after Epiphany. :Where the Other.

The next day a parcel containing, sev7 ral brand new shirts was left at his ouse by one of his hearers, a kind earted old lady. Meeting the donor a ew days afterward, he thanked her ex- eedingly, but expressed much surprise t receiving such an unexpected gift. "Oh," said the lady, "you mentiOned in your sermon on Sunday thatl you ad only half a shirt on your -back" "Quite true," added his reverence, but you seem to forget the other !half vas -in front." -London I Vindicated Their Victim.

Mankind has always exhibited the greatest feeeness for sweets, and from the earliest times the demand was Supplied by honey. - The royal psall iat sets up honey and the honeycomb a4 the highest standard of material swee uess. A laud tlowing with milk and h ney was the picture drawn by the mo t ancient poets to de- scribe an earthly paradise.. Romans of the last days of he republic, and sub- sequently of the time of the empire, who were at the same time the most luxurious epicures and the grossest feeders the world ever knew and spared neither nioney nor exertion to secure every delieacy possible for their tables, had no kne-wiedge of sugar, but robbed the bees to obtain sweets for their famous hoaey cakes and other confectionery. Sugar was made in India and Arabia in the earliest times, but it was not brought into Eqiipe until the inva- sions of the mdliaramedans into the countries around the Mediterranean sea, in the sevteenth century. The Moors cultivated the cane in the. coun- tries of north Africa, and they intro- duced it into Spain. The Spaniards, about 1510, planted sugar canes in their West Indian posseasions, whence it spread through par:h America and into the 'French Elroy, ce of. Louisiana. S The caner Was the !original source of sugar, and so renaained up to the time of the Napoleonic; wars in Europe. The. ports of France Were so closely block- aded by the British fleets that it was impossible -to seeure sugar from any tropical countrieS, and Napoleon as- sembled the cheinists in France and commissioned them to discover some means of making i sugar out of material found in the countryat the same time offering a large reward. This proceed- ing resulted in the production of sugar from the beet. 1 DAVID GARRICK. The Great Actor's Art and His Wifers Rutile Feelings. Mrs. Garrick's admiration of her hus- band's dramatic talents was intense, and on his great over her box, n turous delight. ights she would hang xt the stage, in rap - 'he one flaw in her idol she c1aimed4 was a taste for low life, for which she blamed him greatly, insisting that he loved better to play Scrub to a low lived audience than one of his superior characters before an. audience of taste. On one particular occasion ^ she was in her box in the theater when Gar- rick's impersona#on of Richard "III. was applauded to the echo. In that day a farce followed the tragedy of the evening, aad as Mrs. Garrick rose to leave before it her husband came to the box to say he had some business in, the greenroom which would detain him, so most unwillingly the lady was obliged to acqpieace and remain through the clasing entertainment. This proved to he a. comical series of blundering adventures 'which had be- fallen a countryinan who had left his farm to see London and on tis return gave his neighbors an account of the wonders he had met.
