PEDDLER KEPT HIS; CUSTOMER.
Farmer Evidently Was One of Those
Born to Be Gulled.
Congrasmnan Nicholas ~ongworth
was dlseuxsing an industrial stock
that had proved worthless.
"I have, l confess." he said, "no
patience with people who invest their
money in such transparent frauds.
They are as gullible as the Transvaal
farmer.
"This farmer had bought his stock
and his household necessities from a
certain peddler for ten years. At the
cud of the time he came to the con-
clusion that the peddler had been
cheating hlm~that the various addi-
tions and multiplications involved in
their bueiness transactions had been
wrongly done.
"So the farmer on his next visit
to Pretorla bought a ready reckoner.
He studied the volume carefully an,l
was now convinced that his fears
were true. Neither in addition, sub.
t-action nor multiplication had the
peddler used him justly. Beyond
doubt he was short a good deal of
money.
"The next time the peddler called
the farmer said:
"'I will deal with you no more.'
*" 'VThy not?' the peddler asked.
"Because you have been cheatinz
me. I have bought a ready reokoner
and It is plain you have used me in a
dshonorahle way."
"'Let's see your ready reckoner,'
the peddler said. suspiciously.
'~he book was brought to him. he
glanced at it then handed it back
with a sneer of contempt.
" q'his is last year's ready reckon.

~ 'Why, you're right,' said the farm-

American Student Life,
Professor Wilhelm Ostwald of the

turned to Leipsio from his course
lectures at Harvard. Giving his im-
presndons of American student life, he
"The personal interest of the stud-
ents, next to their studies, is concen-
trated alone on sport, which draws
their attention altogether from intel-
lectual or aesthetic pursuits. Foot ball,
above all, is loved uncommonly, and it
is practiced in such a fashlon ~.~at ac~-~

forbidding i't altogether. In the term
of a single semester nineteen students
fell victims to enraged, brutal hand-

many thousanus of spectators view the

WONDERS OF COAL TAR.
Vanilla Extract One of the Many Arti-
cles Made From It.
"Do you know that a majority of the
vanilla flavoring used in the world is
no~ made from the vanilla bean, but is
tt~e product of tar? Do you also know
~hat there are now between 500 and
1.000 articles of commerce sold in the
markets that are the product of that
same tar ?
The questions were asked by Gardi-
ner C. Crawford, an American, who
has long been engaged in business in
Tahiti, who is stopping at the Savoy
hotel while en route east. Mr. Craw-
ford was in the business of growing
and extracting yanllla in the island,
whlch was the principal product of the
natives, but modern science put him,
as well as the native growers, out of it.
The German chemists discovered that
a product commercially called "vans-
line" could be p~duced from tar at
onetenth the cost of t~e natural va-
nlll~ flavor. It is as gOod .as'the nat-
ural product ~d there was#no compet-
ing with that.
Mr, Crawford says that tar Is prov-
ing a productive field for the chemical
with the various coal tar products that
have hee~ made for the cure of head-
ache, but it will be surprising to know
that the experiments have been so ex-
tens!ve"as to now Inc|ude over 500
articles. At the same time not one-
fourth of the tar product of the world
is consumed annually.~Denver Repub-
