Haw Peter Cooper Taught Ono Man
the Value of Money.
Peter Cooper was one of the most
auccesaful, careful and prudent bus!
nose men of his time. He was strong
ly opposed to the methods of many
merchants 4bo launched out Into ex
travagant enterprises on borrowed
money, for which they paid exorbitant
rates of Interest. The following anec
dote Illustrates thia point very forci
bly:
Once, while talking about a project
with an acquaintance, tbe latter said
he would have to borrow the money
for six months, paying Interest at the
rate of 3 per cent per month.
"■Why do you borrow for So short a
time?” Mr. Cooper asked.
"Because the brokers will not nego
tiate bills for longer.”
“Well. If you wish,” said Mr. Coop
er, “I will discount your note at that
rate for three years.”
“Are you In earnest?" asked the
would be borrower.
“Certainly I am. I will discount
your note for $10,000 for three years
at that rate. Will you do it?’
"Of course I will,” said the mer
chant.
"Very well.” said Mr. Cooper. “Just
sign this note for $10,000. payable In
three years, and give your check for
$800. and the transaction will be com
plete.”
“But where Is tbe money for me?”
asked tbe astonished merchant.
"You don’t get any money.” was the
reply. “Your Interest for thirty-six
months at 3 per cent per month
amounts to 108 per cent, or $10,800.
Therefore your check for $800 just
makes us even.”
Tbe force of this practical illustra
tion of the folly of paying such an ex
orbitant price for the use of money
was such that the merchant determined
never to borrow at such ruinous rates,
and he frequently used to say that
nothing could have so fully convinced

Sentiment In a Pawnshop.
A watch had Just passed from tbe
hands of a seedy young man Into those
of a pawnbroker. Before the .young
man got out of the shop tbe • broker
called him back.
“Here’s a picture—a womtm's pic
ture—In the back of this watch,” he
said. “You'd better take it lout.”
Tbe young man blushed.
"It Isn’t worth while,” he said. “I’ll
redeem tbe thing In a week,or two.”
“Maybe you will and maybe you
won't,” retorted the broker. “Yoisnev-
er can tell about these things. I may
not be strong on sentiment, but one
thing I Insist on Is that no man «ball

Various Ways In Which It Is Made
Useful by Man.
Have you any conception of how use
ful that born is to us? Scientifically It
la known as a combination of phos
phate of lime, gelatin and albumen,
and, like all nature's products, the In
gredients are In tbe right proportion
to make the article useful to man as
well as to the animal that bears It.
The lime makes the born bard, but
there Is Just enough lime to make it
hard without making It brittle, and
there Is just enough gelatin to make
the horn easy to cut and shape. The
core of the horn is bone, and to get
that out the horn Is soaked In water
for several weeks. When the core Is
taken out It is ground up and made
Into crucibles which are used for melt-
Ing gold and silver In.
The outer end of the horn is hard
and solid, and that is used for making
knife bandies and other things. The
hollow part of the horn is soaked for
half an hour or so in boiling water,
when it becomes soft and may easily
be split with a knife.
It Is then spread out flat and put
between iron plates. There was a
time when these horn plates were
made very thin by hard pressure and
used In windows and lanterns as we
now use glass. They may be made
quite translucent.
When the horn is heated It may be
molded into almost any desired form.
That Is thé way knife handles, but
tons and other articles are made.—Chi

ENGLISH STORIES.
Ths Striking Way an Oxford Notable
Won a Nickname.
Dean Stanley once went late to din
ner with his collar flapping. Ills host
ess ventured to ask him If he knew.
“Oh, yes!” answered the dean. “Do
you mind?” “Not at all,” said the
lady. “Then I don't mind, either. The
button dropped off while I was dress
ing.” And the dean continued his con
versation.
Rev. W. H. Tuckwell is responsible
for the history of how an Oxford nota
ble In the thirties got his nickname
“Presence of Mind” Smith. He went
boating with a friend and returned
alone and was asked what had become
of bls companion. He explained that
his friend had fallen Into the Thames,
“and If I had not with great presence
of mind bit him on the head with a
boat hook the both of us would have
been drowned."
The late Joseph Joachim was a great
favorite in London and for more than
sixty years rarely missed a season
there. A certain nobleman told him
that he was going to St. James’ hall to
bear him, and Joachim later asked him
If he had found It tedious. “Not at
all,” serenely answered the titled per
sonage. “I enjoyed myself Immense
ly. I did not recognize you at first
under your disguise as a nigger, but
later I laughed all the more.” Tbe no
bleman had strolled by mistake Into a
minstrel show Instead of the large con
cert hall.
A Nice Calculation.
A Flemish gentleman conceived tbe
Idea that he would only live a certain
time, so he made a nice calculation of
his fortune, which he so apportioned
as to last just the same period as be
guessed his life would extend to.
Strangely enough, his calculations
came correct to the letter, for he died
punctually at the time he bad pre
viously reckoned. He had so far ex
hausted his estate that after his debts
had been discharged a solitary pair of
slippers represented tbe entire prop
erty be left. Ills relatives burled him,
and a representation of tbe slippers
was carved on the tomb. Today In a
churchyard at Amsterdam bls grave
may be seen, the only Inscription on
tbe stone being two Flemish words,
“Effen Nyt” (1. e„ “Exactly”).
