A show of force Is often the best kind of dlplomncy. A writer In the Paris Temp teils a story of the French admiral Dupetlt-'J'hounrs, who bad hiiTi Intrusted v(lth the mission of enacting reparation from nn African bey who bad Insulted a French consul. As Dupellt-Tlioiiars' demands wore iiportcd by the forcible argument of ioudeil cannon, the bey acknowledged that be bad Ijccii (im hsHty and prof fered profuse npologles. He even In vited the admiral to hi tnblu and bad a sumptuous repast prepared for his guest. -' The consul warned the nil inlrisl to I on his guard. k "The bey to Incllucd to be malicious." said be, "and when he strokes bla beard and smiles you may I sum that he bi concocting some mischief." "We shall see," wa Dupetll-Thounr' reply. He reached the bey's palace In good time. Profuse compliments and salu tations were ex-changed. All nt once thu admiral's foot met some soft, bulry substance lying on the carpet un der the table. He bent down nnd saw a huge lion showing hi formidable teeth. The bey smiled and stroked hi beard. Diipetlt-Thounrs did not wince, but csllpl his dragoman. "My pistols." was all be said. - The servant saluted, retired and brought back a pi.ir of pistols on a liver tray. The admiral took them and placed them ou the table before him. But the bey, still smiling, contin ued to stroke his patriarchal bearJ. "Tell the commander." be said to the dragoman, "that If those pistols are for the purpose of blowing out my lion's brains they are quite Insufficient and perfectly useless." Then, like a skilled fencer counter ing bis opponent's thrust, after the bey's Ironical advice had -been trans lated Dupetlt-Tbounrs replied: "Tell bis blghnr-ss that my pistols are not there to kill his Hon, but to blow bis own bruins out at the first move ment of this objectionable carpet." Gravely, but a little pale, the man Interpreted. The smile died away on the bey's Hps, and be no longer stroked his beard. "My lion," said he, "Is too well train ed even to scratch one of my guests, but since be Is not wanted be shall be sent away." At a word from the bey the Hon slowly and heavily left the room, like an obedient dog. Oalton ExptrimmL The English themlst Dalton was a Khoolteacner. He worked without a laboratory and wltb crude apparatus, uostly made by himself from simple material. Here Is nn example describ ed in his own words: "Took an ale glass of a conical fig ure, two and a half luche in diameter and three inches deep; filled It .with water that bad been standing lu the room and consequently of the tempera ture of the air nearly; put the bulb of the thermometer to the bottom of the glass, the scale being out of the water. Then, having marked the temperature, I put the rod hot tip of the poker half an inch deep In the water, holding It there steadily for half a minute, and as soon as It was withdrawn I dipped the bulb of a sensible thermometer Into the water, when It rose in a few seconds to ISO decrees." He then determined the temperature of the water at the bottom after five minutes, after twenty minutes and aft er an hour and found that it rose grad ually from 47 to 02 decrees. This Blmple experiment proved that water has the power to conduct heat, which had been denied by no less an author ity than Rumford. Youth's Compan ion. The Mistake Ha Mads. He sauntered luto tbe central police station and approached the desk ser geant. There was a careworn look on his face. He stood there a moment as if lu reverie. Finally as tears coursed down his cheeks he timidly, said: "I want to give myself up." "What have you done that you should seek a felon's cell?" the sergeant asked. 'I have loug been a fugitive from Justice. The welfare of society de mands that I should be punished." - Hut what Is It? What heinous of fense have you committed?" 'I am a bigamist yea, a polygamlst and I don't dare think what worse. No longer must 1 keep It from the world. Lock me up. 1 am ready to do penance." But will you not explain?" 'Yes, If you Insist. 1 thought 1 mar rled only the daughter, but I have found, to my sorrow, that the whole family was lucluded." Kausas City ludepeudont. Tax on Hats. Not only have hats nt various times been subject to taxation, but have even been made tbe subject of special laws. Thus in Henrv YII.'s reign none was allowed to sell hats at a larger price thag 20 pence or caps for more than 2s. 8d. Some compensation, however, for this interference with free trade could be found In the fact that in 1571 on Sundays and holidays every one above seven years of age was required to wear a cap of wool of English make under penalty of 3 farthings fine for every day's neglect London Chronicle.

Tyrant Rule of th Autocrat of ths Parisian Flat House. The "concierge" Is considered to be the bane of tbe Parisian lint dweller's existence. His functions are supposed to be tbe following: Tbe first nnd most Important Is to collect tbe rent on qunrter day; after that he must see that tbe tenants do not surreptitiously remove. The latter precaution seems to be somewhat un necessary, as rents In Paris sre always paid In advance. He should also bring np your letters at least twice a day, but as tbe con cierge is generally a stout, middle aged woman who has a decided objection to climbing stairs tbe bitter regulation re mains somewhat of a dead letter. In Paris the front door of most bouses Is generally closed at 10 o'clock. After that time admittance can only be obtained by ringing a belL The con cierge Is obliged to open tbe door, and she does this, as soon as she la awake, by palling a rope which bangs by ber bedside. If she bi a sound sleeper and you are accustomed to come borne late at night the best thing to do is to look for an other fiat, as the concierge will put you down as a "bad tenant" and make things as unpleasant for yon as possi ble. If you never stop out late at nlghL receive very few friends and fee ber heavily, at Christmas, the concierge will consider you ns a "good tenant" until you give notice to leave, when her Interest in yon suddenly vanishes. As there Is nothing more to be ex pected fmin you and the Incoming ten ant Is obliged to give a substantial tip. called a "denier a Dleu." she Is anx ious to "sHed tbe parting guest" as much ns possible. The conclerire does sometimes make a final effort to extract something more from you by attempting to make you pay a franc for every nail knocked in the walls of your fiat, but this has been decided to be Illegal and may be safely resisted. But the Parisian concierge Is really unpopular because she represents a landlord. London Mall.
