DO you know what the Americans do with
their tomatoes?" There being no 1bsen
present to solve the deep mystery. he con-
tinued. "They eat what they. can, and what
they can't they tin"
Talking of good deeds. says the Matinee
Girl in the New York Dramatic Mirror,
Marie Dressler is down at Sheepshead Bay
fighting the mosquitoes there
She says that record of the slain she
has to her credit would amaze people who
are only accustomed to mosquitoes as they
are known at ordinary Jersey resorts.
Shepshead Bay is their paradise.
why do they always allude to mosqu1-
toes as being n1asculine?' she asked indig-
rantly.
TIL male mosquito is an absolutely quiz
ct. respectable insect who spends his even
irgs quietly at home. It's the lady mos
quito that does all the damage.
And yet whenever you kill a mosquito
you say: There. | killed him"
Perhaps she is right; who knows: But
who has time to question the sex of mos
quito when he begins to sing his song
beside ones couch just as slumber is creep
irg nearer?
It's a question of biff!-and if there's a
corpse to show for it the angels flap their
wings and smile!
Miss Alice Burbage, who is spending the
summer at Bar Harbor has recently play
cd at two interesting concerts. the second
one having been given as piano and song
recital and among the ladies interested in
it were Mrs. Barney of Washington and
Mrs. Pulitzer. wife of the proprietor of the
New York World. The vocal numbers were
sung by Mr.. Pigott, baritone.
The Sunday Night Music Club met at
Miss Grace c. Story's. on Maryland avenue

First Piano Concerto, with string quintet
accompaniment. Mr. Fritz Iseman played
the Nilhemj arrangement of the The Preis-
