FELL DOWN IN GOTHAM.
Aud the People In New York We're
Much Worried.

Aud the People In New York We're
Much Worried.
One day at 3 O'Clock in the after
noon it began showing. A little snow
makes the streets of New York as
smooth as glass and slippery as II
rubbed with banana-skins. says an ex-
change. l had to go to the postofiice
and in crossing Franklin square my |
heels flew up and the rest of my body |
came down. 1t wasn't much Of fall, |
and certainly no new experience, but |
as my legs were somewhat tangled up, |
l sat around for awhile to figure out |
the best way to get up.
He's broke his laigw yelled news |
boy who came running up.
Busted his spine!' exclaimed fakir
who was selling notebooks for cents.
Don't try to git up!' cautioned
policeman who came running across
the street.
In sixty seconds there was crowd
of fifty people around me, and while the
first policeman was absent to ring up
the ambulance second pushed his
way in and knelt down beside me and
kindly asked:
Which hospital would you rather go
| tor"
II don't want TO go to any"
TOO bad-too bad! When your head
struck the stones the skull must have
been fractured. Which leg Is broken?"
| Neither one"
"Then it is your back?"
MY back was never better. II you'll
give me room I'll get up"
Don't try it! Here, now stand back,
will you? Some one take hold and help
me lift him out of the way
But I'm all right, l tell you. Let
me get my feet under me and ] can
walk away"
Here comes the emergency ambu-
lance" replied the officer. III you fell
lers don't stand back I'll run you in!'
l struggled out Of his grasp and got
up and shook myself and kicked with
my feet to show that my legs were all
right.
And you are not hurt?" demanded
the officer.
II kept telling you l wasn't, but you
wouldn't have it that way"
Hear his chin chatter!'
lies fake!'
Run him in. peeler"
Don't you ever do that again!
shouted the officer at me, az he turned
,, very red in the face. "The idea OF your
falling down and"
81 couldn't help falling. but l TOLD
you when you first"
go on-go on!
"Keep yer eve on de fake!"
"Who says dat anything Is de matter

What to DO with Enra.

This is the moment when furs are
being relegated to summer seclusion.
1t is we'll known that the hot spring
sun is more disastrous to a seal sacque
or cape than a whole winters wear,
and it is the wise woman who does not
expose her handsome fur garment TO its
ardent beams. An excellent plan to
keep furs and woolens from the inva-
sion of those destroying pests, moths,
is to look them over in a strong light
and beat them thoroughly till not an
egg can remain. Then pack them away
in a clean. tight barrel whose interior
has been carefully pasted over with
newspaper. When the barrel is full,
paste over the top a double thickness
Of newspaper, taking care that no sim
gle aperture Il left anywhere for the
entrance OF the insect. A board or
stiff pasteboard may be laid over the
top, merely to protect the paper COW
er. II the barrel can stand where moth
ing will be likely to fall upon it the
extra cover is not needed.

ABOUT THE EAR.

The cavity OF the middle ear Is about
the sifze OF kidney bean.
Thomas Holcroft wrote a famous
comedy called Deaf and Dumb"
Deaf and dumb people receive sys-
tematic instruction at Oxford in Eng
land by DR.. J. Wallis. in 1850.
The tympanum covers the passage
leading to the interior Of the ear. Just
as drumhead covers the drum.
The first systematic Instruction on
scientific principles for the deaf was
begun by Bonet at Madrid, in 1920.
Many deaf persons can hear music
distinctly by placing one end OF a cane
upon the piano and holding the other
to the teeth.
The ears of the crawfish are located a:
the base OF the feelers on his head. the
orifices being covered with stiff bristles
which prevent the entrance OF water oil
foreign objects.
The ear Of the African presents q
curious contrast TO that OF the Malay o.
Monaghan. II is broad, fat and lies Sc
closely to the head as 10 give the i'm
preston OF being bandased.
The ear of the elephant, like his eye
is very small in proportion TO the siz'
OF the animal, although the flap OF ski
which covers il is often OF considerable
size. The :iearing of the elephant. how
ever. is sinFularly acute.

Daniel Huntington, former president
of the National academy. related re-
Gently an odd art experience. The con-
yersation had been on Sir John Millais
and his portrait work and this re-
minded Mr.. Huntington of how at one
time he painted a portrait in three
hours.
Il don't recall all the circumstances
exactly" began the veteran OF the
easel. but I do remember that the
man came very hurriedly to my studio
one morning. He announced that he
had Just come from the west, that he
had heard of me and wanted me to
paint his portrait-it was 20 be pres
ent, as remember. for his wife. But.
he said, taking out his watch. i sail
for Europe this afternoon. All my
business has been finished and l can
give you--let me see-three hours
"Of course, l declared that painting a
portrait under such conditions was alb
solutely impossible. But ne refused to
accept my refusal. He declared that
he had come to New York some hours
ahead of time especially for this; that
he would have nobody else paint him
and that he would not be disappointed
| / could have a week to finish the por.
| trait after he had gone.
Il made the experiment, but declined
to be responsible for the pictures sue
| cess. Never before had l painted 81
rapidly and never since. During thu
latter part of the time my sitter helt
his watch in his hand. Precisely at tn
expiration of the three hours he lef

From memory | fms he'd 1t within
a few days and it pleased the persons

perience. York Herald.

misfortune falls upon them? They suf-

did this and after the first bitterness
had died out of her nature, kindly
and generous one, she even learned to
