DON’T MUMBLE YOUR WORDS.
Or Chew Your Cigar—At Least Not When You Are Dictating. Before you condemn your stenographer be sure she wae not too timid to ask for a repetition of what you said way down in your throat or with a cigar tightly clasped in your mouth. ‘1 once knew a competent young man who lost his position in a railroad office,” says a writer in the Bookkeeper, “because the official who did the dictating, gave more attention to his cigar than he did to hie articulation. “Then some men have a habit of pacing back said forth as they dictate. When they make the turns or stand looking out of the window you can imagine the result, especially if they also smoke. Of course the wise stenographer explains that Bhe failed to hear and understand, but many are too timid or foolishly proud to do this, and they are stigmatized as incompetent”
Makes Elephant Sausage.
Some time ago an enterprising German pork butcher contracted for the carcass of an elephant belonging to the Ghent Zoological Gardens. The elephant had become unruly and it was necessary to have him killed. The butcher at once proceeded to transform the huge carcass into Frankfort sausages. According to report he was able x to manufacture no less than 3,800 pounds, which found a ready sale, owing to their novel origin. The elephant’s heart, which weighed some forty pounds, was also sold in slices. This story is suggestive of the report from Paris that a butcher had used the carcass of a lion for making “Lyons sausages.”
Self-Advertisement
Crankiness and cantankerousness In scientists, according to the British Medical Journal, are due not so much to conceit as to their high appreciar tion of the greatness of science. This makes the inappreaiation of the public —so often the scientist’s only reward —very bitter to bear. “The hardest thing for a scientific man to hear is the attribution of lila discoveries to men who have come Into the vineyard at the eleventh hour and received the reward of his labors. The history of science Is full of examples of such injustice; they all point the moral that it is the inevitable fate of the man who has not the gift of self-advertise-ment to be overlooked.”
Friend More Fortunate.
Gen. George H. Harries, command-er-in-chief of the militia of the District of Columbia, is the busiest centurion in the land. In addition to being a soldier, he runs an electric light company and manages a traction company that is the wonder of those who know what good car service means. Also, he is a member of all committees of civic organizations. "I met Mrs. Harries Just a few minutes ago,” said one of the general’s friends by way of making talk when they met “Fine, I’m very glad to hear it” returned the general. “I met her myself last week.”
Strange Foible.
Some men make a vanity of telling their faults; they are the strangest men in the world; they cannot dissemble ; they own it is a folly; they, have lost their abundance of advantages by it; but if you would give them the world they cannot help it; there it something in their, nature which abhors insincerity and constraint; with many other insufferable topics of the same altitude. —Swift
High and Low Wages In France.
The highest paid workingwomen in France are said to be the cutters of precious stones. They receive about <I.BO a day. The lowest wage is 60 cents a day, and is paid to dressmakers. There are 14,000,000 women in France,- and the majority of then earn their own living.
France Is net Singular.
There are persons in France who respect nothing. They spend their lives in trying to prove that Louis XIV. was a poor maniac, Napoleon a degenerate, and N Joan of Arc a suspicious person. . . . Perhaps we talk too much of our national <ride. —Paris Le Matin.
Advice for Young Ladies.
It is superfluous to decorate women highly for early /youth; youth is ifr self a decoration. We mistakenly adorn moat that part of life which least requires it, and neglect to provide for that which will want it most —Hannah X on.
His Musical Name.
A correspondent reports the finding of a deff*dvd»y curious name in one of the records of York daring the reign of EBsabeth—Marmnduke Clarionett It sounds like a character in a Utter day bmiasque.—Notes and Quartos. Order your Galling Cards at The 1 Republican office. _
MAKING AUTOMOBILE PARTS.
Manufacturer* Abandon Other Lines to Bupply New Demand. The large number of manufacturers who have been planning to produce automobile parts promises to be materially Increased by’ the announcement of the automobile builders that they are unable to secure enough parts to make the output planned for 1910. To-day the movement Is taking In many manufacturers whose previous training has been in other directions, and according to ttye iron Age the departure may- be too radical to be wise. Enthusiasm for the new product may mean the neglect and serious injury to the .old. At the present time the successful automobile parts brings the handsome profit which a specialty usually commands. But as with every other business, the time must come when competition will get down to the normal basis, with profits reduced to the usual level. Thousands of Inventors are working on new means to accomplish the same ends and improvements are coming in quick succession.
Pound Now Eskimo Trlbe.
W. J. Bower, an Arctic explorer, reports the discovery of a tribe of Eskimos who, aocordlng to his statement live on a point of Prince Albert Land. They call themselves Nunacaotics, are tall, and look like North American Indians. The explorer was cordially welcomed by them, and he procored many rich furs. From the town of the Nunacaotics, Bower proceeded farther north, where he discovered Immense copper deposits. On this trip he lost an eye through the bite of a spider. This was not the end of Bowers’s troubles, for after the eyeball was removed by the crude surgery of an Eskimo, the schooner used by the party was wrecked and the advehturers had to walk 180 miles to Point Barrow, where they were taken on board the whaler Jeannette.
Not Cold Weather to Him.
One of the guests at a reception held in Washington some time ago had a poor memory for faces, and In addition was a little nearsighted. During the evening he took the host to one side, after the manner of a man who had some Important secret he was about to disclose, and In a deep whisper inquired: "You see that tall man standing by the door?” "Yes,” answered the host “Well, I was talking to him awhile ago about the terribly cold weather we had In Nebraska last winter, and he yawned in my face.” "Don’t you know who that is?” Inquired the host trying his. best to hide a smile. “No.” “Why, that’s Commander Robert E. Peary."
The Captain’s Repartee.
The captain of a trans-Atlantic liner, having become Irritable as a result of some minor troubles in the ship’s management and the unusually large number of ridiculous inquiries made by tourists, was heading for the “bridge” when a dapper yocng man halted hhn to inquire the cause of the commotion off the starboard side of the ship. Being on the port side, the captain politely replied, wtth some sarcasm, he was not certain, but thought it possible that a cat fish had Just "had kittens. —What-to-Eat

No executions take place in Berlin, the condemned befog taken to the prison at Ploetzensee, in Brandenburg, where they have a standing guillotine.
Didn’t Forget Himself.
A three-year-old waif In a deaconnesses’ home offered up this prayer, says the Delineator: "Oh, God bless all in this home (mentioning each by name), “and all the sallow to the aaa, that the ships won’t run over them, and aH the poor boys and girls that they may get bread mad candy, and bless Alfred Warren Randall”— (himself)—a hesitation, then added, "the one what's got the nightgown on.
