Phil's False Face.

"Poor Phil is in bed, and I am afraid
will not be able to come down stairs for
week." said Harlem man to a re-
porter Yesterday. ''He met with an
extraordinary accident on Saturday.
You know Phil works in a printing
Office down town, and he gets his pay
on Saturday night. You can't expect
much discretion in boy not fifteen
years old, but must say that Phil is q
bigger fool than any other of my sons
Still, he is steady, and is great favor
ite in the office where he works, and
there is no doubt that he has more good
nature than all his brothers and sisters
combined.
"On Saturday he promised to bring
home mask, or false face, as he ca led
it, to LITTLE Jack, and when he started
from the Office for Harlem at seven
O'Clock he resolved to spend part of
his weeks pay at a place in Grand
street where he had seen some goats
faces. He walked up the Bowery. On
his way he had 10 pass one of those
places where, in addition to birds, they
sell all the vermin they can lay their
hands on. He stepped in to look
around, and was enchanted by the
beauty of a blinking ferret He in
quired the price, and finding that he
could purchase it for fifty cents. he
made up his mind that it would he a
choicer present for his baby brother
than mask. He bought it and board
ed train on the elevated railroad with
the box containing the ferret in his
hand. AT one hundred and twenty-tifth
street he cautiously opened the box
and sought to kiss the ferret. The af-
fectionate brute kissed him to somo
purpose and then escaped, carrying the
box. Phil says, with it; but this may be
an idea due to Fhir mental disturbance
at the time. Certainly. when Phil rang
the door-bell, he had ne ther box nor
ferret with him, but the children. see-
ing him from the basement window,
shrieked delightedly: Here comes Phil
with the false face on him. It's all red!'
The wounds have not healed. but
the doctor thinks that he will get along
all right. IN Y. Sun.

We are often asked. by anxious pupils of

value of COMPOSERS: WAS Handel as great

Schumann!" etc. In order that we may be
tornlented no more, and that all doubts may be
solved forever. We have compiled the follow
ing tables OF musical values: Sx Milards
make one Abt: ten Abts make one Schubert;
two Schuberts make one Chopin; two Cho-
pins make one Schumann; four Schumanns
max. one Handel; two Hsnlels make one
Bach; three B4chs make one Beethoven. 1t
will be natural, therefore, that in future ex-
