wupen For a Settlement.

An old Swede farmer who lives on the Baltimore and Obio road, a few miles veut of town, had the misfortune to lose a val- unable eclt the ether day. The animal jumped out of a pasture, ran down upon the railway and was caught in a cut by an express train. The claim agent went out to effect an amicable settlement if possibte with the old man.

‘We are very sorry, of course, that this affair bappened,’’ said the railway man, ‘and I hope it will met be necessary for us to go into court.”’

The old farmer looked at him suspicious- Jy and shifted about uneasily, but said nothing.

‘*You must remember,’ eontinucd the claim agent, ‘‘that your colt was a tres- passer on our property when the accident occurred. VWedon’t want apy litigation, however, if we can help it, and we'd like to arrange a settlement with you on a friendly basis.’’

‘*Vell,”’ slowly said the Swede, ‘‘Ay tal you. Ay bin sorry das fool calt runned on de railread track, bus Ay bin poor man. Ay skal give you two tollar!’’—Chicago Times-Herald.

The Weli Groomed Envelope.

What a high bred, well groomed look there is about an envelope tbat is properly prepared for the mails! A little thing, of course, but one ef the little things which tells. The handwriting? No, the hand- writing doesn’t stand for much because each individual has his own especial chi- rography, and it is more characteristic that she should, but the writing en a weil looking envelope is begun far epough to the left to be well balanced. The las: word is net squeesed and crammed. The address, with name of state and city, is written in full. The stamps are evenly placed ip the upper right hand corner, with a slight margin left between the top of the envelope and the edge of the stamp. The Gap, toe, of the well bred envelope is mucilaged down ima clean, orderly man- ner. It is often rendered modish with sealing wax and the sender‘s monogram. —Exchangs.

Seemed Uke It.

“Come up te my house tomorrow night,"’ said Henpecque. ‘‘I’m going to celebrate my golden wedding.’’

“Golden wedding! Why, maa, you've only been married three years!’

BUSINESS SKYSCRAPERS.

The Brains That Go to Make a Modern Ciant Building.

The brain that is engaged in this busi- ness directly is divided into more than 100 trades, each one of which has been devel- oping its particular branch with the same strenuousness, boldness and ingenuity that have characterized the architectural en- gineering. The architect himself has been laboring with a thousand considerations not even hinted at in this article He has been studying out such other general prob- lems as ventilation, light, economy of space, convenience, prepertion, besides at- tending to special applications of aj! his prinoiples and those of all the otber trades that enter the building with his and add to the ever varying problem. The en- gineers have been pendering such essen- tials as jolnings and strains and founda- tions.

In Chicago, where there 4s no bard pan within rencb, they devised a floating *‘ruft’’ of steel and copcrete to le flat on the shifting sands below the lake level, and on that they can build with such per- fectly even distribution of weight that when the whole strueture of 20 or mare stories settles it sinks plumb The ele- vator builder bas achieved such precision that the number of cars put into a build-

tng is determined by the cubical contents |

of the structure.

‘Tbe plumber bas applied to his art the principles of sanitary science. The ma- chinist has fitted his enormous plant to the dimensions of the cellar and has plot- ted with the elevator man te use for the improved heating system the exhaust steam from the power engines to warm the tenant after it hase lifted him to his floopy and lighted his room. The heater wan bas arranged so that all the tenant has te do is to set a gauge opposite the de-

ree Fabrenbeit at which he would like to te the temperature of his room kept, and the machinery sutamatically keeps it there. —J. Lincoln Steffens in.Scribner’s.

Origin of Table Utensils.

A writer astem pte to trace table utensils —mort of tiem of recent introduction— to their erigin. The Romans, he declares, took their meals lying upon very low couches, and it was not until about the time of Charlemagne that a stand was used around which guests were scated on cushions, while the table made its appear- ance jin the middle ages, and with it came benches with backs. The Greeks dnd Ro- mans ate from a kind of porringer, yet during a portion of the middle ages slices of bread cut round took the place of plates. The spoon is very ancient, and many fine specimens are in existence that were used by the Egyptians in the seventeenth cen- tury B. C. The knife, though very old, had not come inte cognmon use aga table utensil in the tenth century. The fork was absolutely unknown to the Greeks and Romans, appeared only a curiosity in the middle = and was first used upon the table by Henry III. Drinking cups— in the middle ages made from metal more or less precious—naturally dated from the remotest antiquity. The use of glasses from Venice began to be general in the fif- teenth century. Saltcellars appeared at a very early date and occupied the place of honor at the banquets of the Greeks and Romans, many of them being made of gold and silver and richly chased.—Jewel- ers’ Ulreuins
