Fresh from the lecture on polite-

street be put his resolution Into ef­

heavy-laden, he smiled serenely under
unmerited abuse and he hurried no
one unduly. At 96th street he no­
ticed that a woman In the middle seat
was preparing to leave the car at the
next corner. The child beside her
was too big to cause her any particu­
lar trouble in alighting, but the con­

the woman smiled upon the child, so
he hurried forward to help.
The woman stepped down first and
the conductor, with one sweep of his
arm, set the child down beside her.
His signal to go on was followed by a
scream, then another and another.
"Boo hoc," howled the boy. and “ My

“ He Isn’t mine," gasped the woman
when she and thé boy had caught up

Dumas's Melon Contract.
Alexandre Dumas, pere, was ex­
tremely fond of melons, and an auto­
graph letter of his has Just come Into
the possession of the library of the
town of Carpentras by legacy which
proves the fact. It Is perhaps one of
the strangest contracts ever made by
man of letters. The letter is ad­
dressed to M. Seguin, the deputy-
maire of Cavalllon In the Caucluse In
August, 186], by the author of “ Les
Trols Mousquetalres,” who was then
living at St. Gratien, near Fngheln.
He says: “ On receipt of your letter I
have Immediately arranged with my
publisher, M. Michael Levy, for him to
send you the two or three hundred
volumes which hare already appeared
of my works, and that in the future
as they appear be will send you the
others, and I am very pleased to be
able to reply to the great honor which
you do me. But please hare the good­
ness to tell your honorable maire, M.
Tourel, that I Impose one condition.
If the town and the authorities of Ca-
ralllon like my books, I like their
melons, and I desire that In exchange
of my three or four hundred rolumes
there shall be constituted for me, by
‘municipal decree,' a yearly Income of
twelre melons per year. The cost of
carriage will naturally be at my ex­
pense.” Need one add that the con­
tract was faithfully kept on both
sides?

The Tamworth hog Is not as popu­
lar In the United States as it de­
serves. A few pigs of this breed
were brought over from England
about 30 years ago, but until the last
three or four years It was not regard­
ed favorably.
The appearance of the Tamworth
is somewhat against It. Its rather
long head does not Impress farmers
favorably, and there Is a general be­
lief that it costa more to bring a Tam­
worth to maturity than almost any
other type. Experiments show, how­
ever, that this claim is based mainly
on prejudice, for the Tamworth In
Canada has proven Itself to be an
excellent and economical feeder.
This breed Is especially well adapt­
ed to bacon, because o f Its light
shoulder, Its length of side and a ten­
dency to produce a greater portion of
lean meat than many other breeds.
When the Tamworth Is crossed on
breeds of more fattening tendencies,
and with finer bone, say the Berk­
shire, It makes an excellent bacon
hog. It Is claimed by some breeders
that the Tamworth Is the best bacon
hog In existence, but this may be tab
en with a grain of salt.
