he Drummer COLLAPSED.

The smoking car was filed with an
air of contentment and the odor of
10-cent cigars-that is, until the Irish
man came in. After that all was
changed.
This son of Erin, who had a stubby
beard on his chin and a much battered
silk hat on his head. dropped into j.
seat and began to fill an old clay pspe
which he drew from a coat pocket.
No one paid him the least of atten-
ton; not even when, with n long
sweep, he scratched a match on his
trousers and held it blazing over the
bowl Of his pipe. But before he had
taken a dozen puffs every man in the
coach was sitting straight up in his
seat staring fiercely in his direction.
Say. that's villainous" growled a
choleric old man with a bald head as
an odor much like that Of burning
rags surrounded him.
"Abomnablew agreed the drummer
at his side, glaring at the lrishman.
Suddenly something approaching a
smile came on his face, which gave
way TO a crafty look.
I'll stop that" he said, with re-
assuring nod TO his companion. Then
he got up and lounged easily over to
where the Irishman sat.
Nice day" he said. affably, drop
ping on the arm OF the seat.
Its that" returned the Irishman.
taking his pipe out of his mouth and
looking up good naturally.
Il see you smoke" went on the oily
drummer. Try one of these"
He held out his cigar case. The
man from the Emerald isle accepted
his invitation with broad smile.
Sure tits a gintleman We are an
that's TRUE wurrd."
Better take couple more" sug
gested the travelling man. thinking
that three cigars would probably last
until his station was reached 40
miles ahead.
THANK ye. Thank We" efusively
exclaimed the Irishman. as he ac-
cepted the second invitation.
But I'm afraid thim's too foine a
shmoke fr iv'ry day f'r a man loike
me- ne went on. critically and proud
ly eyeing the three well-mad cigars
in his horny hand. "Yis. that's TRUE.
SO thankin' We. | behave I'll just save
thin fr a Sunday shmOke"
So saying. he carefully slipped the
three cigars into a vest pocket and
took up his pipe.

FISHES NEED AIR TO LIVE.
Ponds in which They May BE Sealed Up

Ponds in Which They May BE Sealed Up
BY Ice and Die for Want of 1t.
FISHES need air.
1t is a familiar fact that fishes can
not live without air, OF which all sweet
water contains more or less, and in
cold climates fishes sometimes die for
want Of air In ponds that are frozen
over in winter; they exhaust the air
contained in the water and not en-
ough more can get In to sustain life.
The frozen-over waters In which fish
don't get air enough TO support life are
likely to be smaller ponds with gravel
border all around, where the Ice can
form unbroken clear TO the edge, max
ing complete covering over the water
and practically sealing it up. II there
is vegetation around the pond at the
edge of 1t. shrubbery or trees or
branches dipping in the water. such
vegetation is likely TO supply some air.
for as the ice settles it cracks and
breaks about the stalks of this vegeta-
ton and thus leaves places where air
can get in.
Sometimes in small sluggish bodies
OF water such as park ponds, holes are
cut in the ice TO give the fishes be-
meath air.
