-------------------------- HOW NOT TO SMILE.
Troubles Which Actors Endure 1n
 Keeping Their Faces Straight.


 Keeping Their Faces Straight.
 From the Baltimore Herald.l
 "'Isn't it marvellous" <" said one man to an- other at the Academy one night not long ago, "how that fellow on the stage can say such ridiculously funny things without allowing ripple of smile to creep across his counte- nancef
 "No, not marvellous exactly" replied the other, who was an actor, languidly lowering his opera-glasses and curling his mustache sententiously, but it requires an immense amount of practics. It is one of those arts which the public never appreciate until brought into contact with some chattering idiot who always laughs first at his own jokes. Then the offense becomes appalling. To keep from laughing before an audience is difficult thing to do and often baff1es the most desperate efforts of lecturers and ac- tors To save their soul they cannot choke off the miserable smile that will come sneak ing over the face at the wrong time. Some of the funny men have spent months of prac- tice over this one thing. Mark Twain ex- plains that he doesn't smile when cracking jokes because saying funny things always makes him feel sad.
 ''The most successful humorist on the stage is he who has an expressive face which he can settle into a position of calm and mournful despair the moment the joke leaves his lips. The more solemn the humorist the greater the effect of his words. Nothing pains or dampens the enthusiasm ot an dience so much to discover that the funny man knows that he is funny. When he laughs it makes them feel as if he is simply inviting them to do likewise in cold-blood- ed fashion, and that makes them mad They pay their money to the show, and they love to delude themselves with the idea that they are actually discovering the humor themselves, and that they are laughing spon- taneously.
 Many devices have been put in use by &C., tors and lecturers to keep from smiling, but the simplest and most effective is to put small wooden button in the mouth and bite down on it every time the impulse to laugh makes itself manifest. Some grit their teeth or cringe their toes and Hughey Deugherty, the famous minstrel for long time resorted to the scheme of sticking a pin in his thigh. People who have not been on the stage cannot imagine what ag- ony it is to attempt to keep from laugh ing. For this reason they cannot sympa- thize with that graceful fellow up there as he glides about with sinuous motion alive with suggestive gestures, and drops one ex- cruciating funny thing after another. Per haps he is hardened and can hold his akin | taut, but ten chances to one at this very ! moment he is nervously clutching his fin gers, his leg muscles are contracted, his scalp is itching with suspense, and he | would give one thousand dollars could he ! hold a board up in front of him and in- \ dulge in good square snicker."

Smut in wheat is a matter ofperennlal
interest. OF an instructive nature IS the
report of test made by d. L. Wellman,
the pioneer in the Saskatchewan fife line
in Minnesota. This gentleman smother
ed lot of his wheat in smut and sowed
it in many soils and under varying con-
ditions, but the crop, when garnered,
was as clean and healthy as though the
seed had never touched smut. We pre-
sumo that Mr.. Wellman knew fife wheat
would not smut. This has been known
and stated frequently by farmers and
grain dealers of the nortAwest for years,
although Mr. Wellman's test is the most
thorough one yet reported. Farmers
who want to Danish smut have but to
nse pure fife seed, change it every few
years, and they win not only raise clean,
healthy wheat, but viii get a good and
very regular yield for an indefinite
period. There are varieties of soft
wheat which will yield q little
better for few years, bqtthey are
always liable to smut, or contract other
diseases, and never sell as high as pure
fife in any market.

Although great many mean things
have been said about poor old Missouri,
no one outside of the state has ever mad
the temerity to insinuate that her daugh-
tiers are not all that could be desired in
point of lovliness of person, character
and disposition. The Kansas City man
who has just been assessed $4,000 for
refusing to marry one of them because,
as he remarked, "she had a temper like
a wild cat" probably spends most of his
tiuae now in bitterly regretting his sur
prisingly recklessness.

were the largest yet recorded on this
