THE HORSELESS CARRIAGE.
1t doesn't shy at papers

1t doesn't shy at papers
AS they blow along the street !;
1t cuts no silly capers
On the dashboard with it's feet;
1t doesn't paw the sod up all around
the hitching post,
1t doesn't scare at shadows as a man
would at a ghost;
1t doesn't gnaw the manger,
1t doesn't waste the hay,
Nor put you into danger
When the brass bantls play
1t makes no wild endeavOr
To switch away the flies;
1t sheds no hair that ever
Gets in your mouth and eyes;
1t speeds along the highway and never
looks around
For things that it may scare at and
spill you on the ground!
1t doesn't mind the circus,
It's not at all afraid
And it doesn't overwork us
When the elephants parade.
1t doesn't rear and culver
When the train goes rushing
by;
1t doesn't stand and shiver
Wnen the llIClo SnOWHakeS ny,
1t doesn't mind the thunder nor the
lightning's binding flash;
1t doesn't keep you chirping and con-
Meeting with the lash;
1t never minds the banners
They display on holidays,
It's thing of proper manners,
Which it shows in many ways.
When you chance to pass it's
stable
You do not have to care,
Or cluck for all you're able
To keep from stopping there!
1t will work all through the daytime
and still be fresh at night;
There is no one to arrest you if you do
not treat it right!
It's wheezings ne'er distress you
AS it moves along the way
Farewell, old Dobbin, bless you!
You were all right in your way.

A Sudden Introduction.


A Philadelphia paper tells a funny
story Of the blizzard days Of last win.
ter in that city. A certain Mr.. K. had
over his dining room a skylight which
was burdened with q great weight of
snow, and early one evening he took a
snow shovel and went up to remove it.
He shoveled it off, and then it occurred
to him that he would perform the same
service for his next door neighbor,
whose dining room lay side by side
with his own, the construction of the
two houses being alike.
The inmate of the next house was q
worthy widow, whom MI. X. had new
er met, but with whom his wife was
on calling terms.
Mr.. K. proceeded to a position from
which he could, as he supposed, safely
shovel off the snow, but in doing so he
made a false step and got Oh the sky
light. Crash! went the glass, and down
through the aperture went Mr.. X.
It CHANGED that his next door neigh
Dor a just at this time eating her
dinner. Mr.. K. landed in a sitting pos
ture in the middle of her table, sur
rounded by snow, broken glass and
china, capsized dishes Of food, and still
manfully brandishing his snow shovel.
The shovel told the story to the wild
ow. Although somewhat disconcerted,
she quickly regained her composure,
recognized the neighbor whom she had
seen pass her door, and exclaimed. po-
litely:
"Oh, Mr.. K, I am very glad you
have called! I've often heard Mrs. K.
speak Of you'll"

How They Saved Gable Tolls,

Every American travelling abroad
knows that he is able to notify his
friends in America of his sAfe arrival
in Paris by registering his name at one
Of the newspaper Offices. The names
are cabled over every day and appear
on the following morning in the New
York editions.
This custom struck two smart bust
ness men as being open to large posi-
bilities. One Of them goes to Paris
every spring upon business, and, in Or
der that the M who remains in New
York should be kept posted al to what
his partner is doing, a large amount of
cabling is necessary
In order to economic in this matter,
it is said that the two partners ar
ranged q, cipher, made up of family
and Christian names. Every day that
the partner in Paris transacted some
business he walked into the newspaper
Office and registered there under some
name and address that conveyed to his
colleague in New York an exact idea Of
the progress he was making.
The name, initial and place Of resi-
dence registered represented some item
Of information which the partner In
New York learned next day upon read
ing the newspapers list of arrivals in
Paris.-Stray Stories.

CAMEL,S HAIR BRUSHES.
III. Term . Mi.noner now, Flo,

The Term . MisnOmer Now, For
Squirrels Furnish the Hair.
The camels hair brush used by art
lists has nothing of bactria in 1t. There
was a time when real camel's hair was
used for this purpose. The ship Of
the desert, however, has long been su-
perseded by the comely squirrel. Not
only is squirrels hair very much less
costly, but 1t is better, softer,
pliable and more durable. At the pres
ent day 1t is doubtful If you could find
a bushel Of camel's hair in oil the
brush factories in the land. However,
there is no cause for. fear that the
graceful little squirrel will be extermi-
mated. 1t is the European squirrel that
furnishes the hair for the brushes, the
covering Of the American squirrel be-
ing too furry and soft for the purpose.
1t is somewhat the same way With
the Oarser brushes. The bristles most
priced come from Russia and India,
and the wild hogs Of Germany furnish
their quota. The great American hog
runs to fat and puts forth practically
no bristles. In the countries above
mentioned the collecting Of bristles is
quite IN important industry among the
peasantry Of certain districts. In COM
paratively few cases are they strip
ped from the dead body Of the hog.
The usual method is to discover the
haunts Of the animals and to gather
the bristles from the trees against
which they rub themselves.-New
York Sun.

Queer al hicks HRttand.

Good stories OF William Morris are
told by j. w. Mackail in his Life"
Morris went to Jones' on Sunday
night" runs q note in Miss Pierce's
diary, while they were here, and his
hair was SO long and he looked SO wild
that the servant who opened the door
would not let him in, thinking he was
a burglar"
Morris had a temper, also sound
teeth. Once, in q fury, he bit a silver
table fork all out Of shape. On anoth-
er occasion he hurled a fifteenth cen
fury folio at a workman. The book
went through the workshop door. In
his fits Of anger Morris would drive his
head against a wall or bite deep into
the window frame.
Morris was honestly a socialist. When
his workshops and their contents were
worth $4,000, he surrendered all prof
its and took foreman's wages, thus en-.
abling the business to pay $1.5O per
week better wages to each man.
Morris began designing wall papers
and decorations by accident. because
he couldn't find any fit to buy. Nor
lid he use in designing, except at first,
sad colors. Once he showed a rich
customer some bright Hammersmith
carpets.
"Are these all?" asked the buyer.
"But I thought your colors were sub
dued?"
IF you want dirt" saidkMorris. you
can find that in the street."
And to the street the customer went.

How the Professors Desk Came
Back at His Own Expense.

Back at His Own Expense.
The young lawyer has good taste in
antiques and has done much browsing
about in search of them. He knows
the places in Worcester and the neigh
boring towns where those who like old
furniture and have the money to pay
for 1t may find what will delight their
souls. So it vas no more than nat

saw just what you want the other
day." he said, "but I'm afraid it's gone
now. I'll keep my eye out for the next
few days."
"Well, If you see anything really
good" said the professor, buy 1t and
hold it for me. 1t is not safe to let a
bargain go too long. Only let ME
know as soon as you can, SO that l
won't be buying one too. 1t would be
a great favor"
"Not at ALL" said the lawyer. Its a
pleasure to buy a good thing, even IL
you are not to keep it yourself"
In a day or two the professor receiv-
ed a joyful note. The young lawyers
mother had found just what the pro-
fessor wanted-a beauty, n Of those
rare old bits that they cannot counter

professor was charmed. He imme-
diately sent his check to the young
lawyer with an enthusiastic note of
thanks and a request to send up the
desk. He was in the hall when it ar
rived. He tore off the sacking and in

The COMPANY stood 1t.

On one Of the trolley lines leading to
q well known amusement park they
have a system whereby the ars are
stopped at certain points to allow uni
formed inspectors to count the pas
sengers, presumably as a check on the
conductors. Among the passengers on
the car was a well dressed young fel-
low with a penchant for cracking
jokes at other peoples expense. When
the a stopped for the count up. he
had a lot Of fun thrusting jibes at tho
inspector, the conductor and the troll
ley company people in general. Final.
~, just as the car vas about to re-
sumo its journey, he called out:
"Say, Mister Inspector. you missed
me-"
The inspector turned and looked the
young fellow yer very carefully.
"Humph" he retorted. II guess the
company can stand 1t. I didn't miss
much"
Then everybody laughed, the young
fellow got red in the face, the motor
man turned on the current, and the

A Town Of Consumptives.

Forty years ago the Inhabitants Of
Mentone, France, and neighborhood
were q healthy, happy race Of splendid
physique, to whom consumption was
absolutely unknown.
Then Mentone became the Mecca Of
the consumptive. The peasants left
their farms and their healthy lives to
wait on the wealthy invalids. Farm.
ers' wives and daughters became wash
erwomen, constantly handling clothing
impregnated with the germs Of con-
sumption. Thousands Of consumptives
died there, impregnating the soil and
the water with the germs of their dis
ease.
AS q result, the earth, air and water
Of Mentone are infested with the tuber-
Gle bacillus, and the once healthy peas
antry are consumptives almost to a
man and q woman. No more complete
or startling proof Of the truth Of the
once derided germ theory Of disease
could wall hsimastpee than this.

The 1,.ueb wo.n,t on the Boz.

1t is said that Professor Blackie Of
ten told this anecdote ION himself"
This genial old professor used to form
q very picturesque feature in the Edin-
burgh streets. He was a wiry old pa
triarch, with handsome features and
hair falling in ringlets about his Shout
ders. No one who had seen him could
possibly forget him. One day he was
accosted by a very dirty little bootblack
with his "Shine your boots, sirf" The
professor was impressed by the filth
ness Of the boys face.
II don't want a shine, my lad" said
he. "But If you'll go and wash your
face I'll give you %sixpence."
"a RIGHT, SIR" was the lads reply.
Then he went over to a neighboring
fountain and made bis ablutions. Re-
turning, he held out his hand for the
money.
"Well, my lad" said the professor,
"yau have earned your sixpence. Here
it is"
II dinna want It," returned the boy,
with a lordly air. "Ye q keep it and
get yer hair cut" &

The woman and the Car.

It's q strange thing about women and
cable cars when the time comes for
them to part. A man or q boy will just
naturally drop off the car and start
along the street as if nothing had hap
pened, but let a woman attempt to
emulate his example and sad work
does she make Of IT.. Even a rainy
day costume doesn't help her out much,
for skirts have little to do with her
bungling method Of leaving the car.
It is a matter that cannot be explained
so easily as can her inability to throw
n ball, for In the latter case anatomy
is at fault.
Sometimes she puzzles over it her
self, but in the majority of cases she
gives the matter no thought, but sim
ply rises, grasps the railing, and,
whether the car is at a standstill or
in motion, steps off backward. Some
n should be able to offer a reason
able explanation Of the very apparent
fact that her impulse in that case is to
do the incorrect thing. Even when she
carefully studies the subject and trains
herself to face in the same direction In
which the car is moving it never
''seems natural" to her.-New York

1.-THE second sight trick as perform

memory" said a former theatrical
manager. "Some years ago attend
ed one Of Henry Kellar's entertain
ments with Mrs. Scott Siddons. His
lady assistant sat b%lindfolded on the
stage and described different articles
which he picked up at random through
the audience. When he came near. !
simply pointed to a curious little green
charm which Mrs. Siddons had loaned
to me and I was then wearing on my
watch chain.
"It was a green intaglio,' said the
assistant in reply to Kellar's ques.
tons; "a very peculiar little medallion.
which was presented to Mrs. Scott Sid
dons by the sailors of q vessel bound
for San Francisco from Australia
"We were SO astonished that we al
most fell out Of our seats. After the
show we went behind the scenes with
Nellie McHenry and some other the
atrlcal folk who happened to be pres
ent, and Mrs. Siddons proceeded to
corner the magician, who was an old
friend. Now, Harry she said, 4 want
you to tell me honestly how you knew
about that locket.'
