A Jehu's Courtesy.

A noted American singer is fond of
telling Of little experience she had in
Boston once upon a time. She was to
sing at an evening concert, and car
riage was to be sent for her. She was
staying at the time with friend, who
had suit of rooms in large apart
ment house, in which the tube system
of communication with the outer world
prevailed. 1t was past the time when
the carriage should have appeared, and
the lady was growing little nervous.
She was sitting with her wraps on when
the bell rang furiously. Hurrying to the
tube herself, the pri1na donna said:
"Well?'
The reply came in a voice heavily
charged with irritation.
''I'm a hackman," said the voice,
can was sent here to git some cussed
lady, an I don't know what in time her
name is! I've rung ev'ry bell in this
house! Are you her?''
When informed that the "cussed
LADY, herself was speaking to him, he
coolly replied:
"Well, come on. Well have to lope
it ell the way to the hall to get there on

Bryant at Williams College.

The great name which we associate
with Berkshire is that of Bryant. At
Williams college his only college days
were passed. Though he cannot be called
with exactness a Berkshire man, he was
born in sight Of the Berkshire hills,
across the Hampshire border, at Cum.
mington. There was spent most OF his
life up to his twentieth year. He enter
ed Williams as sophomore in 1910,
but remained only seven months. The
beauty Of his person, his reputation for
genius and the dignity and grace of his
manner made him a marked figure
among his fellows, and had he chosen
he might have won their affection as
comrade and made his mark as a scholar.
But he was not content, and in May,
1911, he retired.
Something in the atmosphere Of the
place and of his surroundings he found
uncongenial, and he betook himself once
more to the retirement of his fathers s
house at Cummington, with Parthian
shot behind him as he left in the shape of
satiric poem upon the town and college,
which his friends, out of regard for the
fame both of his college and himself,
did not for half a century permit to see
the light or know the touch of printers
ink He lived in West college, the old
est of the colleges, and room No. II on
the third floor is reputed to be the one
which he occupied.
Years later the college gave him de-
grees and enrolled him among her grad
yates. His desire was to enter Yale, and
it is pathetic to know that it was the
narrowness of his fathers means-him-
self a scholar and cultivated gentle
man-which prevented him from carry
ing out his earnest desire. Arthur Law.

Oueer Cure For Toothache.

In Staffordshire and Shropshire, Eng
land, they have most extraordinary
cure for toothache The sufferer watches
mole's runway with spade and traps,
and as soon as he succeeds in capturing
one Of these reputed eyeless little ami
mails cuts off its paw and quickly ap-
plies it to the aching molar. In order
to make the cure sure and effective, the
paw must be amputated while the mole
is yet alive Furthermore, if the aching
tooth is on the right side of the jaw, a
left hand mole paw must be used, and
vice versa. A similar toothache super
stition exists in the Cape Verde islands
and also on the Canaries. Louis

TO INVENTORS,

If you have made an invention you want
patent. And you want a good one. There are
various kinds of patents. Some of them are
not worth keeping around the house. They
don't protect. 1t is as unsafe to trust to them
as to a lightning rod without a ground con-
nection. That is the kind an inventor is like
ly to get when he draws up his own Specifica-
tions, or trusts the work to an irresponsible
attorney. 1t is not the kind dealt in by the
Press Claims Company.
DO you want to know what the Press Claims
Company is? 1t is a syndicate of hundreds of
the leading papers of the United States, or
ganiZed to protect those of the subscribers
who have dealings with Government against
the impoSitiOnS of Inscriptions claim agents.

Strange Use OF the Teeth.

Mrs. Peary has told what a hard days
work it was for the Eskimo women in
her service when they prepared skins for
clothing. The women cleaned the skins,
and after a certain number of hours
spent in masticatings hard hides their
jaws were quite tired. Polynesian wom-
en- chewing a particular root so as to
prepare fermented liquor must have
an equally hard time of it. Primitive
man had to use his teeth much more
than we do, for he did not eat with
them alone.
Every PSYCHOLOGIST has noticed"
writes Professor Mason, chow the teeth
in the crania of certain savages are
worn to the socket, and we are frequent
ly told that this arises from the large
quantity of sand in the food. " But it is
probable that primitive man used his
teeth not alone for the trituration of his
food. The teeth set on some small OBJ
ject made wise, and teeth were used
for cutting implements. In basket max
ing the teeth were the ready nippers,
and the small branches of osiers must
have been peeled by the same means.
"Whoever has seen," writes Professor
Mason, can Eskimo boot neatly pucker-
ed all around the edge of the sole will
not be surprised at the brevity of the
good woman's teeth when he comes
across her skull in a museum New
