The llioidont That Opened John Dal-
ton’a Eyes to His Affliction.
John Dalton, the famous English
chemist and natural philosopher, with
out whose discovery of the laws of
chemical combination chemistry as an
exact science could hardly exist, was
wholly color blind. His knowledge of
the fuvt came about by u bappeuiug of
the sort which we call chance. On his
mother's birthday, when he was a man
of twenty-six. he took her a pair of
stis-klugs which be bad seen In a shop
window, labeled “Bilk, the newest
fashion.”
"Thee has bought me a pair of grand
hose. John." said the mother, “but
what ms de thee fancy such a bright
color? Why. 1 can never show myself
at meeting In them."
John was much disconcerted, but he
told her that he considered tlie stock
ings to be of a very proper go to
meeting <<dor. as they were a dark
biuisb drab.
“Why. they’re as red as a cherry.
John.” was her astonished reply.
Neither lie nor bls brother Jonathan
could Bee anything but drab In the
stockings, and they rested In the belief
that the good wife's eyes were out of
order until she. having consulted vari
ous neighbors, returned with the ver
dict. “Varra fine stuff, but uncommon
ecarlety.”
The consequence was that John Dal
ton became the first to direct the at
tention of the scientific world to the
subject of color blindness.
THE DRINK CALLED COFFEE.
Haro la the Way They Made It In the
Seventeenth Century.
There are in existence iu Great
Britain a few copies of an ancient
cookbook, published in 1662, that gives
what Is perhaps the first English rec-
lpe for coffee. The recipe reads:
"To make the drink that Is now
much used, called coffee.
"The coffee berries are to be bought
at any Druggist, about seven shillings
the pound. Take what quantity you
please, and over a charcoal fire, in an
old frying pan. keep them always stir
ring until they be quite black, and
when you crack one with your teeth
that it is black within as it Is without,
yet If you exceed, then do you waste
the Oyl. and If less, then will It not de
liver Its Oyl, and if you should con
tinue fire till it be white it will then
make no coffee, but only give you its
salt, Beat and force through a lawn
sieve.
“Take clear water and boil one-third
of It away, and it is fit for use. Take
one quart of this prepared water, put
in it one ounce of your prepared cof
fee and boll It gently ODe hour, and it
la fit for your use: drink one-quarter
of a pint as hot as you can sip it. It
doth abate the fury and sharpness •f
the Acrimony, which Is the gender of
the Diseases called Cronical."
Beat ths Bank’s System.
The boy entered the Cleveland bank
and laid a half dollar with his bank
book on the receiving teller’s wludow.
“We don’t receive deposits of less than
a dollar,” said the teller. The boj-
yielded reluctantly to the system and
drew back. But he did not leave the
bank. He crossed the corridor and
seated himself on a settee. The teller
noticed him sitting there and also no
ticed the reflective look on his face.
The boy waited for some time, think
ing it over. Finally he arose and went
to the paying teller's window. A mo
ment later he confronted the receiving
teller. “I want to deposit this dollar
and a half.” he said. The teller
grinned. The boy had just drawn n
dollar from bls littl— balance nn<l was
uxine |r „ a,, entering wedgt- for the
rejected half dollar. And »0 the sys
tem was beaten by the boy. and n con-
filterable accession of bookkeeping la
tor was the price of defeat.—Clevelaud

Farmhousss Ara Built of Turf and
Often Have Earthan Floors.
The guest room in the Iceland farm
house contained n narrow bed. a big
round table and an organ made in
Brattleboro, Vt. Our host produced
the usual box of snuff and with It a
box of good cigars.
The host and hostess then showed
us all over the house. It Is a turf
structure and Is typical of the older
farmhouses, with narrow, dark, win
i dowless corridors winding in laby-
rintbian maze from room to room.
One passageway leads to a large open
mound where a tire Is made to smoke
meat and fish and Incidentally the
whole house and everything in It. An
other passage lends to another kitchen
with a modern stove. The walls are
all of turf., as is the roof, with just
enough driftwood In the roof to make
a framework to hold it iu place. Very
steep stairs lead up to the badstofa,
or sleeping apartment. The badstofa
frequently forms the sitting and com
mon workroom of the family, espe
cially in winter, ns well as the sleeping
room of the entire household.
Bunks hullt into the wall extend
around the room and are often filled
with seaweed or feathers, over which
is thrown ti fold or two of wadmal
and a thick coverlet of eiderdown.
The Coors are sometimes covered with
boards, but more often couslst of damp
earth. From the ceiling are suspended
numerous articles of domestic econ
omy. while large chests contaluiug
clothing and valuables are scattered
throughout the bouse.—Springfield Ke
publican.
STORY OF A LOAN
A Case Where the Statute of Limita
tion» Was Not Considered.
A well known Kansas banker told
a story the other day about the statute
of limitations. There is a simile In It.
plus some good philosophy.
One day an old southerner walked
Into this banker's office. The south
erner was a typical gentleman of the
old school, suave, courteous to the
point of punctiliousness and honorable
to a degree of martyrdom.
"What can I do for you?” asked the
banker.
“Well,"
replied
the
southerner,
“about thirty-five years ago I loaned
a man down south some money—not a
very big sum. I told him that when
ever I should need it I would let him
know and he could pay me the money.
I need some money now. so I shall let
him know, and 1 would like to have
you transact the business for me.”
“My good friend.” replied the bank
er. "you have no claim on that money
You can't hold that man to that loan.
You say it has been thirty-five years
since you loaned It to him?
The
statute of limitations has run against
that loan years and years ago.”
“Sir.” replied the southerner, “the
man to whom I loaned that money is
a gentleman. The statute of limita
tions never runs against a gentleman.”
So the banker sent for the money,
and within a reasonable time there
after the money came. There was a
courtly gentleman at the other end of
the transaction also. — Kansas City
