We wonder how peo- ple could assemble in an amphitheatre to see human beings killed, but it's the same sentiment exactly that draws a crowd to witness a leap from a balloon. Have you any idea of the actual peril of such per- formance? Last year I kept scrapbook record of casualties. fatal and otherwise, and this season am doing the same thing. In 1S9S during season of about twenty eight weeks. twenty-siX parachute jumpers were killed outright and forty were serious ly injured.
 "That seems incredible. doesn't it@' But it's absolutely true. I have the particulars of each case. A rough estimate from the hest data I can secure shows that there is an average of one accident to every three asceusions. and tbis years record promises to be fully as bad as the last I employed a press-clipping bureau to compile the facts for me. and of course. I have an ob- feet in doing it. I have a patent self-open- ing parachute that I am going to put on the market next year, and I wanted to show the danger of the old apparatus. At Ieast 20 per cent. of the accidents arc caused by the parachute fafling to spread. If it happens to turn slightly 1t is almost certain to remain closed, and in that case the balloonist goes down like cannon ball. It's terrible business, any way you look at 1t. That's something I'm free to admit. even if do expect to make d few shekels out of It."

LETS PLAY"
The Dolls Funeral and How Ned Didn't
 Fall in the Well

l'Lets play funeral and bury Lizabeth Maudy Ann," said Jack one bright morn- ing soon after pr. Ned so totally failed in his effort to restore to health this greatly afflicted member of Julias family.
 ''All right; but you must wait till Mamie and Bess and Teddie come over, cause they want to tend my poor baby's fu- neral"
 "Well you run to the fence and call them over,' suggested Ned.
 "No, I won't let you play funeral with my doll if l must go. for you know when q folkes child dies she must stay home and be mourner."
 "You go, Jack"
 "Shan't do it; go yourself"
 Jack was not always a very polite little fellow, but was usually very accommodat- ing. so the others were surprised at his rough answer.
 "Oh, I don't want to play, anyway" be- gan Ned but just then on glaneing toward the home of the young people, on whose attendance the funeral seemed to depend he chanced to see one of them in hearing distance and saved further dispute by call ing to them. The little friends responded with their presence almost immediately and arrangements for the funeral begun
 Ned and Jack, however, seemed in mood for their ugliest behavior. They wouldn't "play right" but leased the lit- tie girls, by laughing instead of looking serious and did so many bad things that they could hardly play at all.
 Soon after the funeral procession, which was composed of long row of chairs, started for the cemetery. Ned, who was acting horse for Teddie, began to rare and jump and pranee and became so unruly that he succeeded in breaking up the pro- cession and in giving Ted bad fall The girls finally became provoked al- most to anger and refused to play with the boys, who ran off to leap frog, while the girls went along to bury the poor deceased doll baby. The cemetery was under a beautiful tree in the back yard and the

reached it's highest point, and when some one is about to go down to fish up his dead body, Ned calmly comes in sight as he walks round from the far side of the ser wants house near by and asks: What s the matter with you all? What in the name O goodness Is the matter with the well?'' moments silence follows his unexpect- ed arrival upon the scene.
 f Matter indeed! you wretched boy" be- gan Aunt Nan.
 A disguested humph! and we'll from one and another of the formerly anxious crowd, now rapidly dispensing, is his only answer, till Julia, with her pallid lace and a trem- mulous wall for the first time during the anxious moments giving vent to her tears calls to him between her sobs, "Oh, Neddie. Nedde my Neddie; l drought you was drowned"
 His mother, now fully restored to con- sciousness. clasps him to her and cries over him, while he still wants to know what in the mischief it's all about"
 They all forget to reprove Julia for alarm ing them so terribly. so great is the relief to see dear old naughty Ned perfectly dry and sound and not hurt In fact. her tear full face and her frequent repetition of the words as she pats his cheek, "Neddie, I drought you was drowndedi' almost bring the tears afresh to their eyes each time. and they only wish to rest and relieve her overstrained nerves from the shock they had sustained.
 Ned thinking only to scare the little girls a bit, had thrown the bucket and ran off to a big tree, where the other boys were waiting for him and did not dream of the sensation it was to cause. He did not en- joy the joke as much as he thought, and when Julia, still unable to give up her Ncddie was borne in his arms to the house, again patted him and in a pathetic whisper said, My Neddie, me froughr you was drowned, there as a suspi- cious moisture in his eyes.
 So ended the funeral of Lizabeth Maudy Ann. Her grave was not completed for several days: not till they had had time to play many other things.
