audiences he has had. and the critics

Mr.. Downing is we'll to do man, and
therefore far from dependent on the re-
turns from his acting for his welfare, but
1t is pleasant to know that he finds his
vocation very profitable. He is young

many Sportsmen of the Nile Train Puss
to Become an Expert Fisher.
Though it seems somewhat difficult
20 understand how the sportsmen of
che Nile trained their cats not only to
hunt game, but to retrieve it from the
water, the hunting scenes depicted on
The walls of Thebes afford proof of the
Egyptian cats service in this re-
spect.
In one of these representations, says
the Boston Globe, puss is depicted in
the act of setting bird that h.s been
brought down by the marksman in
the boat; while in another scene the
eats are seen in the boat ready for their
work.
Thus, it appears, from these ancient
illustrations of field and other sports,
that the Egyptians were able to train
their domestic cats to act in the same
way as our modern retriever dogs do.
1t is generally supposed that nothing
will induce cat to enter water, but
this is clearly fallacy, like many
other popular notions about the animal
world.
The tiger is an excellent swimmer as
many have found to their cost; and so
the cat, another member of the tiger
family, can swim equally well if it has
any occasion to exert its powers, either
in quest OF prey or to effect its escape
from some enemy.
AS cats are exceedingly fond of fish,
they will often drag them alive out of
their native element whenever they get
the chance.
They have even been known to help
themselves uout of aquaria that have
been left uncovered, and on moon
light nights they may be seen watching
for the unwary occupants of a fish

DANGER in PUNoENT oDOns. oDs
Smelling Salts Injurious to the Olfactory

Smelling Salts Injurious to the Olfactory
Nerves and a Cause of Deafness.
Every one does not know that aro-
matte salts and very strong, pungent
odors are injurious to the nerves of
smell and often produce serious if not
incurable difficulties. 1t is well under
stood, says writer in the Philadel-
phia Times, that certain scents start
the action of the secretory glands of
the nose and throat, and often the eyes
fill up with tears Frequent indul-
gence in the use of such perfumes will
soon overtask the secretory organs
and weaken them. Some day the per-
son observes that the hearing is less
acute than usual and the sense of
smell seems defective. This is of
course accredited to cold or some
similar cause and but little is thought
of it. After time the entire head be-
comes affected, hearing and smell are
almost if not entirely lacking, and
there are throat and lung complica-
tions which are likely to end in chronic,
If not fatal, illness. 1t has taken the
medical world great many years to
discover that loss of hearing is almost
invariably caused by some disease of
the throat or nose, or both. But very
recent researches in these fields have
demonstrated this fact beyond ques,
ton, and it is now admitted by the
most advanced medical men that, aside
from rupture of the ear drum, there is
scarcely symptom of defective hear
ing which is not traceable directly to
the condition of the nose and throat.
In view of the new discoveries ear spe-
eialists are finding their occupations
gone, save as they make their particn-
lar branch an assistant in further in.

TOUGH ON TYPEWRITERs.
All tho Pleasures of Their Vocation to B0.
Swept Away by n Machine.

The typewriter girl has undergone a,
metamorphosis. She no longer looks
lovingly into the eyes of her employer
as she rattles off messages of business
to be indited by her. No longer will
her winning ways stir the heart Of the
big man she works for.
All this, in the opinion of the New
York World, is because of the introduc..
ton of the photograph into most gem
eral use. great many of these i'm
struments are in use, answering he
purposes of an ever-ready and accurate
amanUensis.
The progressive business man, locked
up in the quiet seclusion of his own
room, now says all he has to say in the
receiving horn of phonograph. He
reels off his business letters at a rate
that no shorthand girl could follow.
When he has finished he sends the ma.
chine into the room occupied by her,
and she let's the words escape only as
fast as she can catch them and jot
them in cold print with the aid of her
typewriter.
Il think it's real mean," said dear
little typewriter girl recently. 81 have
worked for Mr.. Blond six months, and
have written every letter that he has
sent out of this Office, and yet have
never had the chance of saying word
to him or of having the pleasure of
hearing his own dear voice falling on
my ears. It's too bad, say, and if
these awful machines are more gen.
orally put into use we girls won't have
half chance"

MAKING Love FOR HIRE.

Break Up Undesirable Attachments.


Break Up Undesirable Attachments.
A new professionalism OF the "cut-
ter-out"-is thus discussed by the Sat-
urday Review; 1.-The world is over-popu-
lated with amiable, good-looking
young men, highly educated, healthy
and wholly incapable of earning their
livelihoods No ingenuity can provide
berths for all of them, but some might
be employed as 'cutters-out.' This is
a new profession, The duties of the
'cutter-out' are few, simple and agree-
able. He or she has merely to make
love and to ride away. Thus, put it
that some ones daughter, niece, or, it
may be, favorite cousin, has become
engaged TO a man who is not liked or
approved by the family. To resist her
choice is futile. Opposition merely
fans the flame of passion. So you send
snote or telegram to the central Office
of the Society for the Utilization of
Johnnies,' and they dispatch a cutter
out. He is young, handsome, agreea-
BILE, perhaps lord or an honorable-a
baronet very likely. His duty may be
explained in word-he is to cut out
the young lady's affianeed lover, to
make her out of conceit with that disa-
greeable person, and then to retire
gracefully to some outlandish part of
the globe. The scheme is peculiarly
valuable to parents, but anyone may
make use of it. OF course there may
also be, and should be, female cutters
out, to be slipped at young men who
have entangled their affections unde-
sirably. Lord Algernon is fond of
the rector's daughter, Of the gardeners
daughter, or whom you will. In
stead of crying, if you are his lady
mother, or swearing, if you are the
duke, you send up to the Central depot
for really first-class cutter-out, mar
ried lady preferred. In a very few
weeks the rector's daughter, or the
gardeners daughter, is as disconsolate
as Calypso, and then the cutter-out
disappears, carrying with her the re-
spectful homage of the family whom
she has rescued"

An Old Superstitton.

Science has disproved the rural be-
tief that thunder sours milk. 1t is now
known that the souring results from a
fungus growth, and that this fungus
is peculiarly fatal to nursing children.
The old-time rural belief was that the
conclusion from thunder acted me-
chanically upon the milk and first
ory is plausible one, easily derived
from observing one set of facts with
out knowing about the existence of
others more important to the situation.
1t happens that milk does sour dur
ing or just after thunder storms, be-
cause the atmospheric conditions then
prevailing are usually of kind favors
able to the rapid development of the
fungus growth that sours milk.

THEY HAD NEVER SEEN ROSES
Pathetic Incident In a Waits School at
Pittsburgh.


Pittsburgh.
Two ladies, managers, came into the
school the other morning shortly after
it had opened. One of them wore a
beautiful jacqueminot rose, on which
the eyes Of the whole school were at
once turned admiringly. Noting this,
says the Pittsburgh Chronicle, the
owner of the flower gave it to one of
the teachers for the children.
''Now, children, how many of you
know what this is?" asked the young
lady, holding up the flower. Nearly
every little one shook his head to indi-
cate ignorance.
One small boy and couple of little
girls piped out with great Importance
'It's posie, please ma'am."
But no one had ever heard of rose.
Most of the children had never seen
one before. The flower was passed
along the line and small noses fingered
longingly over its fragrance, while
dirty little palms patted it's velvet
petals caresslngIy. NO one saw or
thought of anything that morning but
the rose. The teacher put it in glass
of water to preserve it, and when
school was dismissed each child was
rendered supremely blissful by the gift
of tiny petal. AS they fed out OF
the door each little waif clutched his
treasure tightly in his small hand
while he murmured softly to himself
the name: "Pitty wose, pity wose,"
