ANATOMY OF THE YAWN.
The Artificial Yawn May BE Produced by
Simple Means.

A yawn Is either natural or artificial
Among the natural are the things called
"paps, " which are not true yawns at all
and must be carefully distinguished from
them The artificial article has number
of purposes Sometimes ii is assumed as
a hint To the visitor who stays too long
or to the man who talks politics in the
presence OF women, or talks shop, or tells
an old story, or makes himself general
nuisance Women have n habit of yawn-
ing in the face OF the male individual who
talks enthusiastically to them about other
women This is one Of the most artificial
of yawns. 1t has not even the pretense of
reality about IT,
The most essential difference between
the real yawn and the assumed one Is that
the former is contagious and the latter is
not. One has only to indulge in this phys
ical act unwittingly in street car TO see
IL pass up one side and down the other.
The majority of those who follow the first
example do it without noticing where the
initiative came from or that they are fol-
lowing il. On the other hand, an artifi-
cial yawn begins and ends with the person
who perpetrates IL. 1t has none of the
subtle initiative of the real article. Next
to being able to understand a yawn, the
most important social accomplishment Is
To be able TO stiile one. This can be done
only after long practice. Where this art
has not been attained to the best thing to
do is not TO apologize Such an explana-
ton is an insult to the intelligence Of the
person spoken to. A real, soul felt yawn
must be lived down. 1t cannot be ex
planned away. Say nothing and your
neighbor may obviate all trouble by imi
tating you. In that case one transgressior
offsets the other. New York sun.

Uses For Old Corks.

Whoever throws away IA cork filings out
a substance which is of great value. Old
corks should never be destroyed. They
have many uses and are worked up In
many ingenious ways. They are among
the principal items in the manufacture OF
insulating covers for steam pipes and boil
ers Icehouses and iceboxes are packed
with them. Fine cork shavings are now
used in the filing of pneumatic tires.
Ground into powder they are used in pad
ding horse collars. Linoleum is made
principally of cork, and bathroom mats OF
this substance are useful and popular.
Homemade or inexpensive life preservers
are filled with old corks cut into scraps.
When corks are SO bad looking that they
are not fit for household purposes they are
still of value and should be put carefully
away for future use-New York Ledger.

night. In the morning the people in the
house were awakened by the loud Growing
OF cock. The clerks and bellboys traced
the noise to the room Of the distinguished
lord, and there they stopped, puzzled. IL

possible that a Scottish nobleman would
allow a rooster In his bedroom. But
finally, when the noise continued. they

came from within, and then the lord APP

look bit like lord then. His hair was
mussed all over his head, his eyes were
only half open, and he was shouting angry
epithets at those who had disturbed him.

Annual Meeting of the Joint Association
 at Manchester.

Manchester, N H., Sept. 24-The third annual convention of the Y. M. c. A. of New Hampshire and Vermont opened in the Hanover street Congre- gational church to-day with abdut 200 delegates in attendance. D. l.. Moody spoke on Prayer at the morning and afternoon sessions. The evening ses- sion was devoted to addresses and re- ports.
 In his annual report, J. J. Estey, chairman of the joint board, says:
 q believe that the report of the sec- retary shows that the work in the two states is in a very satisfactory condi- tion, and it seems to me that we have reason to congratulate ourselves. Re suits have proven that the work has received quite an impetus from the Bellows Falls convention and they have proven also to be of the most happy and permanent kind. Of the past eleven months at least nine months have been given by the state secretary to this work. All the associ- ations have been visited some several times"
 After reviewing the work of the va rious associations, the chairman con- tinues:
 Permit me to make the suggestion that it would be well if the convention would take action upon the need of en- phasizing educational work, systematic Bible study, attention to the extension movement, the advisa bility of starting building funds and securing building lots. The boys work has as yet re- ceived very little attention, yet we must not forget that the boys of to- day are the young men of tomorrow. There should also be more emphasis put upon the fact that this is a work for young men, by young men and not a work for young men by secretaries or paid employees.
 We would also like to call the att tention of the convention to the Spring. field training school for secretaries and physical directors as school which af- fords excellent preparation to young men who want to make this work g. life work. It will be well also to make provision for the continuance of the office and employment of office help"

BRYAN ON YALE STUDENTS.
Their Actions Do Not Bespeak the Senti-

Hartford, Sept. 24.-The conduct of Yale students at the Bryan meetiug in New Haven this afternoon is a subject that MT. Bryan will not discuss for publication beyond the single comment that he does not consider his treatment there as representative of the true feel ings of the community.
 Seemingly no sore spots have been left in the candidate by the jeers and interruptions to which he was subject ed. He laughingly told some of those who apologized for what had happened that he was once a college boy himself and understood how students some times could not be restrained MT. Bry- an was informed this evening that MT. Blaine was treated in the same way at New Haven in 1884, and that the Yale men have made it a custom to act as they did to-day toward political speak CTS, irrespective of party. He had no comments to make on this information. MT. Bryan was naturally annoyed over the way he was prevented from finish ing his speech, but he is keeping his real feelings to himself, preferring to let others express opinions in the mat ter

 Worcester, Sept. 24.-Nordica scored another triumph tonight at the music festival It was artists night with se- lections from "Stabat Mater thrown in. Nordica was gowned in a Worth creation and to the delight of the dam- sels in the chorus wore her diamond tiara. Campanari was in fine voice and in solo from Faust and in the 'Stabat Mater sung himself into thun- ders of applause. H. Evan Williams and Mrs. Alvers were the other vocal ists and remained secure in the affec- tion of Worcester audiences.
 Nordica's solo was 'Erzsebet," an aria from "Erkel's Opera" sung for the first time. Mime. Nordica was forced to answer four recalls and the audience spent ten minutes in cheering her. Her rendering of the "Infiammatus'' was wonderfully fine Chadwicks overture "Melpomene'' and Humperdincks s Dream Music" from "Hansel and Gretel' were the orchestra's contribu- ton.
 Madame Lillian Nordica lost a dia- mond butterfly valued at $5,000 tonight on her way to her hotel from Mechan- ics' hall, where she has been singing in one of the festival concerts. The jewel was found by A. H. Kleinecke and returned to the singer within half an hour of the time it was lost.
