CRUSHED THE SNEERER.
An American Teacher Who IV as Very
Patriotic.
An Italian gentleman whom I met
while traveling disclosed a most de
praved inapprcciation of the wonderful
vastness of tho United States, says a
writer in Seribner's. -
lie spoke English very well, for he
had been many years in London, and,
as we were enioyinff the sea-coast view
between Pisa and Via Reggio, ho asked
politely whether I was not an Ameri
can from "tho states." On learning
that 1 was he begged me to toll him
something of our government.
"You have a president of the country.
the whole states, is it not?" he inquired
earnestly.
I nodded assent.
"Va benel If a man kills murders,
you understand who tries him, the
federal or state courts?"
"Tho state courts," I replied, "unless
it is a case of treason."
"If he is convicted, who can pardon
him the president, of course?" he
asked, with calm assurance, and a slight
emphasis on the "of course."
"No, indeed; tho murderer is tried in
the state courts; he can be pardoned
only by the state board of pardons, if
there is one, or by the state's chief
ofilcer the governor. The president
lias nothing to do with it."
"Well!" flushed my companion, sar
castically, "in Italy the governor 1 1 a
little petty province has not the par
doning power."
"Sir!" I thundered, now thoroughly
angry, "Italy will go twice Into the
petty province of Texas."
It was very naughty to get angry,
and especially with such a politely bar
castle little Ituliun. I know it. liut
who could sit still and hear tho sheer,
unapproachable nny, glorious Im
mensity of ourcountry assailed without
getting angry? No one except the
audacious fop, who every now and then
annoys us with a brazen assertion that
bigness Is, after all, not such a virtuo.
A CLOSE TRADE.
Aa Instance of Nearness" That la Dare)
to Ileal.
The close-fUtr-d and the absent-minded
serve a similar use they amuse
their nolghlxn-s. The New York Sun
quotes a man from tho rural districts
as telling a story of a Mr. I'utterby, an
old-time townsman of his, whose repu
tation for "nearness" was evidently
well deserved. Locally he waa thought
to be almost a prodigy in this respect,
but no story of this kind Is so food but
that another can bo found to brat It.
Ono of the coins current la those
days was the old Spanish sllrcr-piece,
which passed for twelve and a half
venta, and woa variously called "nine
pence," "York shilling" and "bit" It
waa the ealatrneo of this coin that en
abled Mr. I'uttorby to achieve hla
crowning triumph la the way of a close
trade.
A farm-boy camo along- one day with
a load of purapUiaa. which ha waa ped

concluded to buy, but wanted only
half a pumpkin.
"Hut a whole ono la only a ent,"
aald the boy. "How are you going to
pay toe fur half a oner"
"EaaleU thing In the world," aald
Mr. Puttorl.y.
The pumpkin waa eat. be took one
half andrr hla arm, and handed the boy
a aMUIng.
"Now give me the twelve ernta

twelve eopiMvre from the aatonlahed

PHILOSOPHY FOR SMOKERS.
A Man Known by Bis Clears and the Waj
He Smokes Them. .
As a test of character tobacco is useful.-
A man may be known by the
cigars he keeps as well as by the way
ho smokes them. ,No man of refined
tasto will smoke a bad cigar. The
philosophic smoker takes his comfort in
a leisurely way, amid proper surround
ings, and is able to shut himself out
from the world and all its petty annoy
ances as he follows tho curling wreath
into : the dreamland of reverie. Tho
man who allows his cigar to go out a
great many times and relights it in
successive spasms of fidgetiness may
usually be set down as an incoherent
character, quit prone to get off his
trolley, so to speak, and certainly lack
ing in tenacity of purpose. T s man
who fumbles his cigar a good deal and
manages to get the wrapper unraveled
and tho fire all on ono sido may be dis
missed as aliervous person, with a pro
clivity for uncomfortablcness, says the
Baltimore Sun. Men who chew their
cigars, leaving their teeth prints on
:l!hem, and do this for a long time before
litfhting them, aro quite likely to bo
titcrn, determined men, full of grit and
resolution. Gen. Grant used to handle
a cigar in that way, and Bismarck is
said to do likewise. .
As an index of generosity or mean
ness of- soul, the" cigar is quite, trust
worthy. Tho generous man, if ho
smokes at all, is sure to indulge himself
and his friends, when they call on him,
with a good cigar. The man who, with
abundant means to smoko the best, de
liberately buys the worst cigars, and
pretends to enjoy them, is capable of
almost any conceivable meanness. Per
contra, tho man who can find solaeo
and refreshment from a cigar of good
quality, or a pipo filled with choice to
bacco, and who is always ready to open
his heart wide and let his tongue wag
the most merrily when he takes his
friend into the hospitalities of a mvtual
smoke talk, is pretty sure to be ono
whose instincts and impulses are in the
main honest, genial and right.
WILD GOOSE' AND GOSLINGS.
The Mother Bird Carries Her Young In
Her Bill.
I had to make a trip from our claim
on the Columbia to Spokane falls. It
was much nearer to go through tho
mountains on a cayu.se than around by
Davenport on the stage, says a writer
in Forest and Stream. I started quite
early one morning and was along up
the Spokane river when, as I came over
a small rocky point, I noticed a very
large bird soar down from a tree anil
carry soim'thing la lU mouth. At first
I thought it was io -1141.'. but as soon
as I climbed a little hilur 1 could Sep
it was an old gray goiKjt and thnti!
had deposited its burden in the water,
where I cmld son several small onei
siviinming around.
I stopped, got o.T from my cnyuse
and watched tho performance. I hod
tvaited but a few liniments when one of
the geese rose out of the water and lluw
straight to a cottonwood tree, nli'jliled
on a liiuh war a big nest, tlp-n took a
few step toward the nest, and result
ing over into the nest too'.t a youn go;t
llng out and sailed down to Iht com-
pnnlons. W ben she let the youngster
touch the water it cut all kind of
capers.
She again returned to tho nest and
got another, which, was the lust, AfU-r
tvaU-hlng them for quite awhilu I
mounted my cayusennd r.alii on. Whi-n
I came Into plain view of the family 'the
old ones tltillrred away and the young,
sters disappeared. Tliire were seven
little ones, as nenr as I inld fount. I
have watched the woimI ilu. U curry her
young from a treo, but this was the
only time I ever saw a rouao umke the

WIDOWS TAKE
TO PARROTS.
Polly Is a Great Favorite
with the Lone
Women. ;
Parrots have never been suspected
of having a mission in life but one has
been discovered for them in Brooklyn.
An attendant in a shop where animals
and birds are the stock in trade waa
asked if all the parrots that talked were
trained by sailors, says the New York
World.
"Not at all," he said. " "If you should
come in here during the week follow
ing tho arrival of a cargo of parrots
you would .soon flod out that there are
a lot of women in New York who make
it almost a profession to train parrots.
The best customers wef have, however,
ure Ilrooklyn widows. ' There is one
woman who comes in after almost
every cargo we receive and buys at
least one or 'two carrots, sometimes
more, which she intends to teach to
talk. The women who do that ore
mostly widows. Ilowdolknow. Why,
they tell us so. And why do you sup
pose they want the parrots? It's for
company, they say. They say they are
lonely and the parrots are compuny,
because after they talk to them enough
the parrot talks back.
'That is why widows like parrots
better than' Canaries, they say. One in
Ilrooklyn keeps a little notion store
and sella candies. The children see the
parrot there and the parrot is speedily
sold and taken away aa soon as it can
nay two or three things. Then the
widow's lonclinesscomesoverheragain
and she comes In search of another
pupil in feathers. ' She gets three times
as much as she paid for the bird and If
it learns rapidly and has quite a num
ber of words or sings a song she gets
even more." So after all even Polly has
s mission. '
TOLD BY THE THUMBS.
ab Aiieg-eu indication of Nervous De
rangement That Is Oheerved Commonly,
"When I went to a nerve sneclallHt
first," aald a man who was once an in
alid, "he told me that one way to judge
of the condition of a person's nerves
wos to watch bis thumbs. Ever since
that time I have found the greatest
fascination In looking at people's
thumbs. The doctor said that If they
moved Involuntarily outward it was a
sign that the nerves of that man or
woman were not In tho best condition.
1 find myself now sweeping the line
that site opposite me In a car, and If
Unit doctor's test Is a good one there is
a surprising number of people in his
low 11 whose nerves nerd looking nfu-r.
There ore few omong the women wlio do
not Involuntarily move the thumbs out
ward ot Intervals of every few minutes,
and when your attenl Ion has once been
attracted to It the process of watehlug

WATER THAT EXPLODED.
A Bartender's Experience Under Fire of a
Fusillade of Seltzer.
; "Do you know," said Billy Clark, of
the Grand hotel, to a Cincinnati Times
Star reporter, as a big seltzer bottle
fizzed and two or three men on the out
side elevated a foot each on the railing
and looked on, "that these seltzer
water bottles will explode easily?"
And the three men each put a foot down
on tho floor and moved slightly away.
"Sometimes just the temperature of tho
hand will do it, the warm hand, placed
against it while bringing it from a cold
room, or sometimes while lifting it ono
will strike it ugainst tho counter and it
will explode and the metal top will bo
driven with great force by tho gas.
One time, while at the Gibson, I refused
to give a man a drink. lie took it very
much to heart and went away vowirjjj
ho would get even with me. I had
turned about as ho went out and had
my back to him. Suddenly there camo
a Bound like a pistol shot. I tried to
turn around and couldn't, and I was
sure tho n:nn had carried his threat
into effect and had shot me. Directly
following tlint explosion camo another
and another, and there wns a rapid cut.
cesslon of explosions. Then I knew
the man had opened a regular fusillade
on me, and yet I was riveted to the spot.
I could not stir. I thought I had been
paralyzed by a bullet. Come to find out.
one of these seltzer water bottles in the
far end of tho counter had exploded
and the concussion had started the
other.., until all bed exploded thntwero
on that shelf. And the man had gone
away and I never saw him again. But
I never will forget my experience of
that night, when I was sure I had been
shot."
