IN A BAD FIX.
The Startling Sight Which Met a
Bon WANTS Gaze Next Morning.

New York Sun.
Here is a story which was a favorite in the
repertory Of Il famous Cincinnatian:
con one OCCASION" he was wont to say, ''a
friend of mine had been on a terrific spree
which had been occupying his nights right
along for two weeks or more. He managed
somehow TO be on deck during business hours,
bur when night came he was down in the hold
and everywhere else. One morning he awoke
heavy headed, half-dressed and lying crosSwise
OF the bed. When he had gone TO sleep or how,
he did not remember. There was the odor of
stale beer and wine and tobacco-smo in the
room, aud bottles and cigar-butts were scat
tered all over.
by great effort he got to his feet, and for
an lnstan. his head felt as If IL would fall of
ana burst into million pieces. lie cast his
eyes around the room. As they fell upon the
foot OF the bed they encountered grim and
grlnDins monkey sitting on tie rail. There
was no known reason why monkey should be
there, but there it sat and grinned. He watched
IL lntently as he slipped over toward a table
where lay 4 loaded revolver. He. was very
very rocky, bu lie had grip enough to hold the
gun, and with a sudden movement lie had il
trained on he simian. He was famous shot
but the monkey never Wavered. 1t simply sat
there winking and grinning. My friend held
tie pistel down on IL Tor second steadily.
Now he said nervousy, If you are real
monkey you are in a IL cf a fix'-then he
hesitated for mOment-'but if you are not he
went on, then am in a h of FIX
'he banged away, and lt was ten days be-
lore he was himself again."

A surprising number of new restau-
rants of the cheaper sort are painted
white. Probably their proprietors
are following fashion set by New
Yorker, whose bill of fare consisted
largely of milk, who intended to i'm
ply as much by the cream-colored
front of his place. The so-called
dairy restaurants aud coffee houses
that are scattered about the land and
that are painted white are numbered
by hundreds.
