Old Time Feat Of q Trasedian.

The running Of coaches between
New York City and Philadelphia re-
calls the feat OF Cooper, the tragedi-
an, in the old staging days. He
made heavy wager to play in New
York and Philadelphia on alternate
nights for a whole week in 1924. He
travelled 100 miles between the per-
formances, going almost without
sleep, and won his bet. The state Of
the roads was then so bad that the
fatigue OF the week must have been n
terrible strain upon him. Stage
coaches then ran to New Brunswick,
wherh a boat was met. With the
best OF luck the journey might be ac-
complished in twelve hours, but
when the Presidents message was
whirled through by means OF many
relays at the magical rate OF ten miles
an hour the very climax Of fast travel
was thought. indeed, to have been
attained. = Philadelphia Record.

The Natal Autograph.

There is born with every one OF us
and continues unchanged during our
lives an unfailing and ineradicable
mark or marks, which absolutely dis
tinguish each one Of us from every
other fellow-being. These physical
marks never change from the cradle
10 the grave. This born autograph
Is impossible 10 counterfeit, and
there is no duplicate of il among the
teeming billions in the world. Look
at the insides of your hands and the
soles of your feet, closely examine
the ends of your fingers you see cir
cles and curves and arches and
whorls, some prominent with deep
corrugations, Others minute and del
icate, but all a we'll defined and
clearly traced pattern. There
is your physiological signature. Run
your hands through your hair and
press your finger balls on piece of
clear glass. You see all the delicate
tracing transferred-no two fingers
alike, even 1.-The left hand knoweth
not what the right hand doeth;"
they are distintly different. Even
twins may be so similar in face, fea-
lures and general physical conditions
as TO be scarcely distinguishable, yet
their finger autographs are radically
different. In fact, in all humanity
every being carries Wits him his baby
fingers and his wrinkled hands Of de-
crepid old age, the identical curves,
arches and circles that were born
with him. Nothing except dismember-
ment can obliterate or disguise them.
Criminals may burn and scar their
hands, but nature, when she restores
the cuticle, invariably brings back the
natal autograph. = Atlanta Consti-

crackers began TO stir and slip out of
his arms and the torpedoes got out
OF their papers, saying, Stupid little
things. are we?" and fell TO popping
him on the face and hands, each ex-
ploding with a great noise. As the
tirecrackers got down they undid
themselves from their wrappingS,
but all those in each pack remained
together, joining hands. Here We
goW they cried, while Bert said,
pleadingly, "Oh, stop. I've had
enough noise, and there will not be
anything left for tomorrow "
Don't care, " they shouted
wickedly. Here goes.
Bang! bang! bang!
Some packs went of in series of
explosions, each cracker sounding by
itself Some went of all together
like roar of thunder. And again
Bert thought his head would burst.
While all this was going on, for il
took some time for the fifteen packs
to discharge, the various fireworks
arranged them selves-the pinwheels
on the door and window-casings, the
mines in oorners, the rockets and
roman candles on various pieces of
furniture. They soon added their
glare of fire and soft putting and
popping TO the noise OF the crackers.
The rockets made black, smoking
holes in the ceiling, and the pin
wheels seemed to disfigure all the
woodwork.
Rattle rattle rattle Bang bang
bang!
With that Bert rolled off the lounge
on the floor with such thump that
ii woke him, and his sister came
running in, crying:
"Oh, you naughty boy! You
wouldn't go to bed at :, when |
wanted you TO, and | fell asleep and
forgot. Here it is almost II, and
papa and mamma will he home right
away. Come, let's hurry to bed. "
"Oh. dear, the firecrackers and
things all went off, and / haven't got
anything for the Fourth Of July, "
moaned Bert, rubbing his head, which
had hit the floor little too hard for
comfort.
mo, stupid. Here they are don't
you see? right here on the lounge. T"
And the big sister half dragged, half
carried Bert to his room and put him
to bed.
In the early morning as he
gathered up his treasures to go out
and begin to fire, he remembered his
dream, and half expected the big
frecrackers to reply when he said
Hello" to them, just to try them.
They did not, though. Hello" he
repeated saucily. You didn't go
off SO fast, after all, last night, did
you? But here you go now" and he
touched the shining end Of piece OF
punk to the first.

in which they all seemed very much
interested. The teacher called their
attention to it's small tail, saying
The bird has no tail to speak of. -

adage, It's better to be born lucky
than with silver spoon" Some
six years ago boy from the Cana
dian side of the lake came TO Roches-
ter TO reside. He secured position
in a dry goods store and work ed faith
fully for two years. The boy had
ambition. and so he left the city and
located in New York. He continued
TO work as n dry goods clerk, but
while so doing made n large number
of friends, some OF them who knew
the drift Of the Stock Exchange. He
got tip one day, and by little
transaction cleared $4,000. He
speculated again and won S36, 600
He pursued the market and in the
course of the year had made in ac-
tual profit something over 1920, 600.
He then branched out and invested
in various enterprises, and it seemed
that everything he touched. turned
into gold. In the four years that he
has operated he has been able to net
something like $3.50 600. He has

Secret Writing Fluids.

Writing with rice water, TO be rem
dered visible by the application OF
iodine, was practised successfully in
the correspondence with .Jelalabad
in the first Afghan war. The letter
was concealed in IA quill. On opening
il. n small paper was unfolded, on
which appeared the single word
Iodine" The magic liquid was APP
piled and Herewith appeared an inn
portant despatch from Sir Robert
Sale. In the course OF trial in
France last year Il letter was read
from Turpin, under sentence Of five
years imprisonment rs n spy, giving
directions to friend with view to
establishing IA secret correspondence
with him while in prison. This led
to an official inquiry on the subject
by the French authorities, and some
strange revelations were obtained
from some OF the convicts. II came
out that when information was to be
conveyed TO u prisoner, "a formal let
ter, containing apparently nothing
but few trivial facts OF a personal
nature, was forwarded to the prison.
This was read by the governor who
stamped it, and allowed it to be
handed on TO the man TO whom it was
addressed. The latter, however, was
aware that there was another letter
to be read between the lines, written
in milk, and easily decipherable on
being rubbed over with dirty finger.

Bert's big sister went out with a
sigh. She couldn't make him obey,
and she knew it. So did he. Bert
lay down on the lounge where his
treasures were piled. There wasn't
much room left, but he was "A little
fellow, only nine years old, and didn't
need much. He began to handle his
fireworks fondly. Fifteen packs OF
firecrackers, he said, five Of tor

English Royal Cooks.

A queer custom whic9 prevails Mt
no other court than that OF Great
Britain, Is the announcement Mt the
beginning OF each course at II dinner
OF the name OF the cook who has pre-
pared the dishes served. The an
nouncemcnt is made by one OF the
clerks OF the kitchen. The origin OF
this custom dates back to the reign
Of King George H., who made great
favorite OF one OF his marmitons, pro-
noting him TO the rank OF chief cook
over the heads OF all his seniors.
This, Of course, created great jeal-
ousy, and every effort was made to
oust him from royal favor by render
ing him responsible for the failures
which were laid upon the kings table.
Greatly incensed thereby, and fear
ing TO lose his post, he complained
TO the king in person, who immcdi-
atcly gave orders that henceforth,
whenever dish was placed before
him, the name Of the cook response
Bile for its success or failure should
be announced in an audible tone OF
voice.

sLY-BOOTS.

Tommy was very happy when he
came home from school with "A tame
crow perched on his shoulder; but to
tell the truth, he was not so proud of
his pet after Il closer acquaintance.
Sly-boots-that was Master Crow :
name-soon learned great many
tricks besides those that Tommy
taught him.
Biddy Topknot was bringing up n
large family of fluffy white chickens,
and Sly-boots did covet them so! He
knew that Biddy was stronger than
he but he set his wits to work, till
his sly little brain contrived plan
for getting chicken dinner.
So lie flew down to the grass where
Biddy children were playing Hunt
the cricket" and opened his mouth
as if he meant to devour them all.
OF course Biddy drove him away,
but he soon came back, taking care
to keep out of reach of her bill and
claws. Over and over again he tried
this manGuvre, till poor Biddy' :
patience was quite exhausted.
At last she bristled up her feathers,
and chas&d him clear across the
garden into the meadow When she
had left her brood far behind, Sly
boots suddenly took to his wings,
and reaching the poultry-yard first,
carried of the fattest little chicken.
Biddy saw her mistake too late,
but the very next! day she lost her
temper again, and so lost another of
her children.
"Oh dear" sighed Tommy; "if
she could only remember not to get
mad But | can't always remember
that myself, when the boys tease me 4;
and / pose | mustn't t expect hen
to know more than -
Poor Biddy could never learn TO
keep her temper, and so Sly-boots
had to be banished to his native
woods. i Youths Companion.
