Do you want a good, smart Spring
Overcoat, one that will be ornamental
as we'll as useful?
A light weight overcoat is almost
indispensable to-day and yet it was
only few years ago that they were
unknown. 1t is surprising how soon
luxuries become necessities, and it is
also surprising how much of a luxury
a little money will buy in the way of a
Spring Overcoat. $500 buys an all
wool light weight overcoat that we are
not ashamed sew our label on, and
your friends ould hardly believe you
if you told lem how little you paid
for it. $12.oo buys one that is all

1t is well known that the japanese
are remarkably skillful in wood, ivory
and other carving, but a well-authenti-
Gated story which has just come from
Japan would indicate that the willy jap
does not confne himself to the beaten
paths in the exercise of his ingenuity.
1t appears that a gentleman who was
travelling in the interior of the country
broke the handspring of his watch,
which he took to the nearest ieweler, a
native who lived in an obscure VILLAGE.
Somewhat to his surprise the watch
was returned to him apparently in as
good running order as ever, and it ran
Ill right until the rainy season set in,
when it stopped. Being in the city of
Toxic at the time, the traveller took the
watch to an English workman, who on
making an examination was astonished
to find that the cunning Jap had put in a
spring made of bamboo, which, so lonr
as it wsss kept dry, remained elastic,
but during the wet weather had gath
cred dampness and lost its power.

The Coolies End,,rance

The power of endurance of the Chi

from China tells of an instance that
came under his own observation of men
voluntarily travelling forty-six miles be-
fore breakfast, bearing heavy load
most OF the time. In another case he
met with some men who, after having
gone twenty hours without food
and having carried heavy burden in
the meantime, yet had still strength
enough left to carry man fifteen miles
farther.''

1niddle-aged ladies of sour and rniscriv

Iniddle-aged ladies of sour and misery
aspect had engaged a cab to take them
to the Royal academy. In dischargine
the driver, in the presence of thronq
of people, they handed him his fare in
sixpences and three-penny pieces. lie
counted them carefully, and ia reply to
a tartly uttered question by oAe OF the
ladies, answered:
''Well, no marin, it amt right. But
as We must ave been long time saving
up for this yere hannual troat, won't
be hard on ye;;" at which the two ladies'
hurried off, amid the ill-suppressed
laughter of the sightseers.
Ga another occasion, s.hansom'
drew up ct the entrance of a we'll
known place of entertainment in the
Strand. A gorgeoEsly apparcled nasher
aligllted, and, having assisted out a lady
who accompanied him, handed the
driver the exact legal fare. Cabby
looked at it for a few seconds, turned it
over in his hand, and then in loud but
benevolent tones exclaimed: s''Adn't
you an the lady better get in again, sir,
an''ave yer moneys worth? l could
ave done yer another twenty yards for
this he added, and giving anotherlook
at the coin, expressive of the utmost
contempt, he slowly arranged his-knee-
cloth and drove away.
In the way of satirieal humor, the
following viii require adeal of beating.
A hanson" was being driven along
leading thoroughfare at a pretty smart
pace, when another cab coming from
the opposite direction ran into it with
just sufficient force to lodge the collid-
ing horses head on the back of the 9TH
or horse.
The expected outburst of strong adj
jectival language did not take place:
but instead the driver of the hanson
that had been run into sat still, and,
with whitening politeness, observed to
the other driver: ''When your Joss ave
seen all e wants TO see across my 'oss's
back, p'r'aps ell get down. But, bless
yer art, there's no hurry"
1t is always amusing to listen to the
exchange of compliments
between cabby and 'busman, who is
often sufficiently clever at rcpartee to
;ause cabby's attempts at ridicule to re-
;oil on his own head. Here is a case in
point: One afternoon acknowledging
bus picked up a lady and gentleman
light out of the very hands OF cabby in
oiccadilly-
In pulling up, the bus very nearly /
anne to grief against a heavy van. This t
vas the Jehu's chance. You're nice {
ort of party to ave charge of the eds s
# families, you are!" he shouted to the !
bus driver. 'Why didn't you bring t
er mother out to 'elp ye odd the 'osses q
n their feet?n
Like q lightning flash came the retort: I
Bring my mother ont, indeed, while Il
here's such faces as yours knock O
1 about the streets! Not me! don't
ant to ave the old CONAN frightened p
, death. She's been too good mother
