The habits of the Turkish women of Constantinople are wonderfully fastidi ous. For instance, when they wush their bauds at a tap from which water runs Into a marble basin the fair ones will let the water run until u servant shuts It off, Inasmuch as to do this themselves would render them "un clean." They cannot open or shut n door, as the handle would bo unclean. One of these fastidious women was not long ago talking to a small niece who had Just received n present of a doll from Paris. Hy and by the child laid tho doll In the lady's lap. She wiw horrified and ordered tho child to take It away. As tho little girl would not move It and no servant was near nud tho lady would be defiled by touch ing a doll that had been brought from abroad, tho only resource loft her was to Jump up and let the doll fall. It broko In pieces. Another Turkish woman would not open a letter coming by post, but re quired a servnrt to break the seal and hold the mlssUe near her that It might be read: nlso should her handkerchief fall to the ground It was Immediately destroyed or given nwny. so that sho might net again use It. Exchange. Defco and Savings Banks. Though Duncan of Duthwoll was the founder of our llrst savings hank, the first suggoitlon ciimo from Daniel De foe. When he found hliinolf compelled to hide fioin the bailiffs In a small Bristol Inn he turned his enforced leisure nnd Ilnntielal failure to account by writing the "Essay nn Projects." It dcnli with savings banks, friendly so cieties. Insurance, academics and bank rupts. On all these subjects Defoo of fers from his fertile brnln suggetlnim that startle the reader by their u ring. On bankrupts and savings ..a Defoo naturally wrote with leellng. During his stay In Hrlstol he wu known as "the Sunday gentleman," owing to his natural unwillingness to take tho nlr except on that day of the week which deprived bailiffs of their sting. London Chronicle. A Cup of Sugar. , A largo china cup with a hnndlo 'was shoved across tho counter and a child's voice sold, "Ma wants a cupful of sugar." The grocer filled tho cup, weighed the sugar, poured It back Into tho cup mid said, "Two cents." To a customer who expressed sur prise at his wllllnguess to sell grocer ies in such small quantities ho said: "Hnvo to In this neighborhood. Most of these people live from meal to meal, which means that they buy things by measure lustead of weight. Ileckoued by the cupful, the spoonful or the pail ful, they know Just how much of any thing they need.

Virginians of unto helium Iii,h showed gicnt indllToieneo in mouej mutters. Money lu the form of eulu was rarely H't-ii. The planters were lu (lie lintilt of writing checks ou u ullp of foolscap. Instructing the bank lo "plenty" pay the amount specified. Egglenlun s.iyo: "This custom of paying by check to strongly commended Itself tu u certain unworldly parson of my time that he resorted to It on one occasion lu en tlro Iguorntico and Innocence of the necessity of having n bunk deposit as a preliminary to Hie drawing of cheeks. He went to Richmond and bought a year's bupplles fur his little place It was too small to be called u plantation and for each purchase lie drew a particularly polite check. "When the banks threw those out on the ground thut their author had no account the poor old parson found the Hltuatlou a dllllcult one to understand. Ue had thought chat the very purpose of a bauk's being was to cash checks for persons who happened to bu short of money. 'Why, If I'd had the money In the bunk,' he explained, 'I shouldn't have written the checks at all: I Hhould have got tho money and paid the bills.' "Fortunately the mntter came to Jhe knowledge of n well to do and gen erous planter who knew Parson J- and who happened to bo In Richmond nt the time, nis Indorsement made the checkB good and saved the unworldly old parson a deal of trouble." Chicago Nov THE BUCK HAND. Origin of the Name of Thlt Group of Daring Criminals. According to tho United States se cret service, tho Ulnck Hand Is a title common to Innumerable groups of criminals operatlug under the direction of some secret central government. These men nro blackmailers, using murder, arson, kidnaping and bomb throwing ns punishments for those who will not submit to their iniquitous demands. Hlnck Hand is, In short, a handy tintne for a brand of crime pe culiar to Italian criminals who nro suc cessful lu it because of the tempera ment of the foreign Immigrants and their Inborn dread of the extortionist Whether the central government which guides tho Hlnck Hand society Is lo cated In tho United States or In Italy Is something which neither the Italian nor American authorities can discover United States ollleors say the tiumo of tho American Ulnck Hand emanated from Chicago nbout ten years ago, when one of the llrst of ninny myste rious murders lu the Italian quarter remained unsolved. The victim of tho murder had received a warning that death would follow his failure to con tribute n specllled sum of money. The letter was embellished with a crude drawing representing u list clutching n dagger. The (1st und dagger gnvo the name Hlnck Hand -Inter to become un pleasantly familiar to every citizen of tho country nnd the sinister sketch was soon n source of terror to nil Inw abiding Italians. Wide World Maga zine. A SAMPAN FISHING BEE. Trapping the Game With a Leaf Chain Halt a Mile Long. A Snmonn llshlug bee Is a unique sight to witness. Cocoanut leaves are gathered lu abundance nud secured, doubled nud tripled, end to end, to form a long prickly chain, round lu appearance and about three feet In di ameter. These leaf chains nro often woven to a length of half n mile. When the chain Is complete all the men of that particular village turn out en iniiHso with their "paopaos," or Samoa n ennoes. When the tldo Is high tho chain Is stretched across some convenient place, supported by natives In their paopaos or simply wndlug where the shallowness will permit. Tho co coanut seine Is then submerged nnd slowly forced shorownrd, the prickly points driving the fish beforo them, When tho point is readied where the chain can rest upon the bottom nnd still protrude slightly from tho wnter the natives nfter securing tho ends to the bench retire and wait for tho tide to recede, leaving tho fish high nnd dry. It Is often found that largo fish are driven and caught In this manner, but since they are capable of Jumping tho barrier they are dispatched with spears nt onco. Tho catches of llsh thus made uro sometimes enormous nnd often number thousands. Los An geles Times. The Flag of Denmark. In the year 1211) King Wnldemar of Denmark, when lending his troops to battle against the Llvoulaus, saw, or thought he saw, a bright light In the form of a cross In the sky. He held this appearance to ho n promlso of divine aid nnd pressed forward to vic tory. From tills time he bad the cross pluced on the Hug of bis country nnd culled It the Dauuebrog that is, ,' tho strength of Denmark. Aside from legend there Is no doubt that this ting with the cross was ndopted hy Deiir mark lu the thirteenth century and that nt ubout the same dnto an order, knowu ns the order of Dauuebrog, waa Instituted, to which only soldiers and t sailors who were distinguished for courago were allowed to belong. Tho . flag of Den mar It, n plain red banner . bearing ou It u white cross, ts the old i est flag now lu existence. For 5J00 years both Norway aud Sweden were uulted with Denmark under this flag. Housekeeper. Handel as a Child. Gcorgo Frederick Hnudel, tho son of a Saxou barber nud valet, was only live years old when his "Ougcrs wooed divine melodies" from the spinet, which n good n attired aunt I Jul smug- gled for him Into an attle, so that no sound of It might reach the ears of his father. At eight his playing so aston ished the elector of Saxony that his father was compelled to withdraw hl opposition and allow the genius of the boy to have fair play. Aud beforo he had reached his twelfth birthday young Hnudel was known throughout Germany as a brilliant composer and virtuoso nt tho court of tho emperor. A Pleasant Outlook. "I wonder why tho brldo is crying," remarked one of tho guests at the wedding, "Con It bo because sho Is leaving home?" "No, It ain't that," answered the bride's small brother.
