I By way of exploining ever—increasing
frequency of dyspepsia our tea party phi-
losophers have had recourse to the
strangest theories. The danger of water
drinking at meals. for instance. has bee)
; absurdly exaggerated. Sipping hot and
; cold drinks by turns has certainly a m»
inous effect on the enamel of our teeth:
but if we would refrain from bolting
our fool smoking hot. a glass of fresh
water between the, first and semnd
courses would promote instead of im—
peding digestion. The stomach very
soon assimilates the temperature of the
various ingesta. and is far less troubled
by cold spring water, or cold mill; than
by pepper sauces, or soups hot encul'rll to

A lawyer‘s Queer “Bison.“
A celebrated lawyer had different “of

promise. where he was counsel for the
plaintiff. he used to wear a very elegant
pair of lavender kid gloves. sewed with
black, typifyiug‘. I used to think. that
although the deceived one‘s sorrow was
undoubted. still it was subdued and
ready to be consoled or comforted. either
by damages or by substitution of another
ond more faithful swain for the misere~
tint who had blighted her youthful af~
fections.
W hen proposing damages. he had a
hnbit of taking 0! his right hand glove

ring he were and twirling it around his
finger, alternately placing the plain side
in front to look like a wedding rin . or
flashing the diomond into the eyes 0 the

blink again. In divorce cases or murders
block gloves were adopted. and in Iner-
m‘tile cases blue spoctncles. Envy

How some Bank nulclalnand (idler-I
Sign Their Names.
“1 think it‘s Simmons.“ said the sig.
nature expert of the United States tress-
ury, to a Washington correspondent of
the New York Sm). as he. laid aside a
magnifying glass and wiped his eyes with
a silk handkerchief. He had for h‘llf an
-hour been examining a curious scroll on
the back of a check. It consisted of a
black stroke of a pen. tapering off to an
irregular line. and was there to represent.
the name of some bank cashier.
“There is not aletter in it.“ he said.
holding it up to the light. “but it means
Srmmons."
“llo you have many of that sort l“
“\Vorse than that. Five or s:x hundred
dill'ercnt signatures pass through here in
a month. maybe. and two thirds of them
are illegible. Bank cashiers seldom make
letters in their signatures. They adopt.
a certain form of scroll generally, and
always use it tor their signature. Some
of them are very curious. This. for in~
stance.":rnd he took from a. drawer a
paper across which was scrawled a chnr~
aeler that looked like at Schoolboy‘s
sketch of a whirlwind. The line had
been spun around and around in one
piece like a spiral spring. then shot
across the paper about half an inch.

peated, and this \\ s followed by

Inspecting Eggs.
One of the curious operations to be
witnessed in Xew York is the inspection
of eggs. In the large markets men may
be seen testing eggs at. olmost any time.
but especially in October and November.
They work in dark rooms, where they
keep a lamp burning in a box on the
table before them. One of them will
take two or three eggs in each hand and
them rapidly between his eyes and
the lamp. If the egg is . that is. if
the albumen is still unaffected. the light
will shine through with o reddish 10".
