He didn't like to be disturbed, and he ' didn't like to enter into lengthy ex- 1 planation. When a man came in, took i a w.u ue.M.ie his desk and asked if he could settle that little account it wearied him to say: '-Really, I'm sorry, but I haven't got the money to-day." And when the man suggested that it had been running a long- time it wearied him still more to have to say: ii now n, nut 1 have been very ! short 1 11 try to have something for ween. 1 nere was too much c!,ance for a man to get pressing and . y on nexi ween.

Then he hit upon a brilliant scheme. He put in a day puttering around hia dei k arranging thing;;, and the follow ing morning was ready when the first creditor arrived. lie never looked up from his work as the creditor began: "Could you" He simply pulled a string and a placard appeared which read: "No!" The creditor walked sad ly away without finishing the sentence. He even forgot to ask when he should call again. For three weeks now no creditor has received a verbal answer and the young man says it is a great relief. He can answer their questions without stopping his work, and the placard has a discouraging effect that makes them leave the sooner. His only mistake lias been when a man entered hurriedly and began: "Would you lilcc " lie pulled the placard into view aim rue- man replied: "Oh, very well; I am in no hurry, if you are not."

An Interesting Collection Gathered fron All Parts of the Globe br the Afrt cnltnrml Department of the Exposition. Queer seeds will be an interesting feature of the exhibit of the depart ment of agriculture at the Atlanta ex position. Among those shown will be various kinds employed for food by the Indians of North America. The latter eat the seeds of certain cacti, which are parched, pulverized and made into a palatable gruel. Their fondoess for the seeds of some pines is well known, these "niiiions" beinc to them what. sugar plums are to white people. Sun- cower seen., too, tney parcn, grind and. make into cakes, which are said to be equal to corn bread. From the same seeds they get oil for anointing their lr l : - - oouies. Seeds of many kinds, according to the tv asnintrron T.n.r. nave nipn tniinn m the ruins of the ancient nli-ff ' d wolloca of Utah, the evidence being satisfac tory that thev were used for fooH Amnncr tbeste. mnv bo tneotinTipfl tin common garden bean, which is also dis covered in mounds m Arizona. Though of European origin, this veg etable was cultivated by the aborigines oi tnis country at a very early date. The cliff dwellers used to eat the seeds of the ordinary "pigweed." Indians generally to this day consume the seeds of mnnv sneeiea of fraswii. mnlr- ing bread and mush from them. Along ii , i i . Liie rivers in coioraao ana Arizona grass seeds are collected in great quantities for grinding Into flour. trrape seeds, gourd seeds and acorns are likewise employed. The exhibit described will include a collection of poisonous seeds, such as the famous Calabar bean, which is said to be worse than strychnine. The bean is used by the natives for an ordeal. If a person is suspected of a crime he is compelled to eat one, being judged to be guilty in case of death, which is al most inevitable. Another interesting seed, employed for a like purpose, is that of the "ordeal tree" of Madagas car. It is said to be the most deadly of all vegetable products. One of the seeds, about the size of an almond, will kill twenty men. The local name of the plant is "tanghinia." Yet another seed, alleged to be poison ous, is that of the common cockle, which, finding its way into wheat fields, poisons the bread made from the wheat. It is the bane of millers in the northwest. Another kind of seed, known to science as the "hyaenanche globosa," Is powdered and sprinkled on meat in the ncighlxirhood cf Cape Colony for the purpose of poisaming hyenas. It is popularly supposed that horse chest nuts are very unwholesome. Neverthe less, In Turkey they are roasted for coffee, fermented for liquor and utilized for horse medicine. In India there is a kinil of seed that varies so little in respect to sie as to be vs d for a weight standard. It is culled the 'Tet ti," and weighs one grain. From its name i derived the word "carat," which has come into occidental use.

A city-bred, tenement-bred young ster took his first exeursion into the country with a "fresh-air'' party, says the New York Tribune. It happened to be at the time of the full moon. .Night after night the little fellow went out after supper and sat upon a stone behind the farmhouse, and watched the won drous orb as it rose behind the trees. Then his week expired, and he went back to his tenement district A year passed, and as it happened the fresh air fund sent the same susceptible boy to the same farmhouse. Supper was eaten, and he slipped out behind the house and made straight for the stone in the back yard. Hut where was the moon? He looked and looked, till finally, not in the east, but in the west, he discovered a slim silver crescent. The disappointment was too much for him, and he returned to the house, weeping. "Oh, it isn't the same fel ler!" he said. "It isn't the same feller we had last year!" The Early Man. Speculations as to the early condi tion of the first men and women are by no means pleasant ones.

In Ashantee no man is ever allowed to see one of the king's wives, and should he happen, through accident, to get a glimpse of one of the "sacred creatures" he is forthwith put to death. The law of that country allows the king to have three thousand three hun dred and thirty-three "helpmeets" and no more. , These wives all live on two long streets in the city of Cooinasie, the Ashantee capital, the quarters occupied by them being locally known by a word signifying "heaven."
