An Anecdote of MIR. ChiIds.

This incident has been related of Mr.
Childs, and | believe it has never been
printed. Stopping one of his head en-
ployees one day, Mr.. Childs said: You
are not looking we'll. l think you must
be working too hard"
Il am not feeling very well. Mr..
Childs, that is fact, was the answer,
but l guess l will be all right in IA
short time
How would you like to take a trip
to Europe?" said Mr.. Childs, smiling
pleasantly.
We'll enough, sir" was the response,
"but l cannot afford it. "
You can afford it, - said Mr.. Childs,
taking him by the arm, IF l pay Your
expenses and pay your salary to your
family while you are gone, cant YOU"
The result was the man spent Two
months in Europe and returned COM
pletely restored to health.
That was one of the best invest
ments l ever made Chucklcd Mr..
Childs when the matter was called to
his attention. "Why, Mr.. - re-
turned SO much improved in health that
he could do twice as much work as he
could before he left. You see, was
the real gamer by the transaction.
One of Mr.. Childs' characteristics
was that he never seemed to take any
credit to himself for doing kind act.

If il we'll could be dug to depth of 46
miles, the air at the bottom would be us

Halmholtz has shown that a wave of
thought would require about Il minute to
traverse a mile of nerve.
The earth, travelling at the rate of 1000
miles a minute, passes through $50, 100000
miles of space in the course of a year.
Taking the earth rs the center of the uni
verse and the polar star rs the limit of our
vision, the visible universe embraces an
aerial space with Il diameter of 42O, O,O,00O

According to the latest available astro-
nomical data, 10, 600 double stars have been
recorded by the observers of this country

ACTORS are curious folks, observed
tho calcium light manipulation of one OF
the up town theaters to a reporter the
other night. He was breathing upon
the re 1ector and then polishing it care
fully with a wooden rag.
Curious in what respect?" asked the
reporter.
"Oh, they're queer creatures in CIV
cry way" returned the other. Ought
not l to know? I've been everything
connected with theater from usher to
scene shifter, but Lord preserve me from
being an actor! They get more money
than most folks, but they never have a
cent Off the stage they're the biggest
cranks in the world, and on the stage
they're cranky enough, Lord knows.
Now, look at me and my profession, for
instance. Any one would think that
I'd be in solid with the actGrs, seeing
that 1 light 'em up in pretty poses and
bring out the effective parts Of the
scenes. But, would you believe it, if
these stage folks had their way I'd be
bounced 90 times IA eek by the man
agement. Everybody that hoots it be-
fore the footlights kicks ut me from the
chorus to the star and from the second
comedian to the Supe.
There's 600 gray hairs in my head,
for which these serpcntine dancers are
responsible. They're kickers with
vengeance, on ard off the boards. Now,
l guess l know more about the effects
of lighting than they do, but whenever
they come hopping on the stage l never
catch 'em soon enough to their notions.
When they swing around in the butter
fly dance, they start off different every
time, and if the light Slanccs off 'em
for the eighth of a second they lie wild
with rage. 1t their conceit, you know.
They want to look sweet 100 seconds to
the minute. Then they complain that
| catch 'em in the eyes and blind EN-,
whereas it's the continual changing of
their regulation poses that rattles me.
Then, when it comes to the chorus,
oh, my! If they had things their way,
the leading lady wouidn' t he illumi-
mated at all. There ism one of 'em that
doesn't want me to show EN- up for
full minute for the benefit of their gen
tlemCn friends in the audience. They
besiege me every night for tavors in
this way, and | promise-oh. yes, |
promise Ill light EN-. But do do it?"
The calcium man rubbed his forcfin-
ger and thumb in suggestive way.
