SweeDinr Bnck the River,

Some time ago two hulking hoboes
who had just dismounted from q Cen
traI freight train asked q Yonkers man
for loan Of 10 cents to secure some
food. He took them to 4 restaurant
and promised to provide them with
work as soon as they had finished eat
ing. When they report u for work, he
said: Boys, my cellars full OF water,
and I want you to pump it out. I've
fixed these hand pumps right here on
the sidewalk. Never mind the people.
When they come along and ask Qucs-
tons, just you say nothing, but pump
till the waters out Of the cellar. Keep
cool. Don't hurry, but pump, and l
will pay you WELL
Now, q tributary to the Neppcrhan
river ran through this mans store cell
lar and out under the sidewalk, and the
pumps reached down into the river.
The water pumped out by the hoboes
ran into the sewer and back into the
NcDperhar, hut as the sidewalk was
tightly tagged the bumpers didn't
know the size Of their job.
The street became jammed with spec
tators, who roarcd with merriment as
they watched the hoboes. All but the
men at the pumps knew what was up.
When the sun went down, it descended
on the wrath of two Weary Willies,
armed with coupling pins. They hunt
ed all night for their kind employer,
but he was in New York telling his
friends.

GolS In the Old Days.

Centuries back golf was a pastime Of
the royal family, though then usually
played in Scotland. The Stuart family
was very fond Of the game, and the
first English club was established at
Blackheath in 1908 by James I. his
eldest son, Henry, frequently played
and on one occasion nearly struck by
accident his tutor with club, where
upon he coolly remarked, fHad done
so had but paid my debts" Charles
was playing golf when he received
the news of the Irish rebellion. James,
duke Of York, afterward James II, was
another ardent player. Golf is fre-
quently mentioned in ancient Scottish
records and in the fifteenth century
was prohibited because it interfered
with the practice Of archery. Strut
considered it the most ancient game at
ball requiring bat-London Chron-

An Undesirable Boarder.

Some time ago the keeper Of a board
ing house retired from business after
having acquired a comfortable COM
potency in the course Of about 20 years.
During that period her house became
we'll known in the city and among the
women in her own business. She neT-
er realized how well known 1t was IN
til she set out to find q place to live in
herself.
She applied first at the house kept by
a woman nearly as we'll known as her
self only to learn that there was no
room for her. It was not until she had
been through the same experience sew
eral tirles that she came to understand
that she was not wanted in the estao-
lishments of her former rivals. Her
reputation for keeping q fine house was
too much for the other women, who
did not want to submit to the scrutiny
Of former boarding house keeper who
had made a reputation and fortune in
the business.
She learned, after going to a hotel
where her record could not be used
against her, that she was not the only
woman who had found it difficult to
get into q boarding house after having
kept one Of her own. When they are
well known, it is practically impossible
for such women to find quarters, for
whatever her reasons may be the land
lady does not like to shelter her kind

TALK OF MARRIAGE.
It Is Proper For the Man, but Not
For the Girl, Apparently.

It Is Proper For the Man, but Not
For the Girl, Apparently.
\ man may remark on his intention
to marry at some indefinite future time,
when prudence or other considerations
may make it possible or advisable,
without having, as q rule, to run the
cantlet Of a chorus Of impertinent and
stupid would be witty remarks. But
should a girl be bold enough, or, rather
natural and simple enough, to say the
same thing what would be the result?
Why, every one knows that she would
be promptly sneered out Of counte-
nance.
And why? Is it irnmodest for wom-
an to express 4 determination to enter
into a state which we are being contin-
uaIly reminded is q natural and honor
able state, while it is modest and prop
er for man to do so? Such distinc-
ton would never be drawn except for
the "cheapness'' to which reference has
been made.
If man wants to marry, he can mar
~. If the first woman he asks refuses
him, he has only to ask second or per-
haps third or fourth. 1t would be
safe to guarantee that within a month
any man Of fairly respectable life and
position and appearance who cared tc
make the experiment could marry in
his own class, could marry probably O
woman much Jerior to himself.
But what about the girl who intends
to marry ':some day." Is she not in q
very different position from the man?
Here is girl Of good character-much
better than the mans, probably-aver-
age intelligence, average good looks.
Theoretically she is free to marry
whom she viii, but is she? If she re-
ceives one distinct offer Of marriage,
she has had more than her share, ac-
cording to the probable average.
The fact that by an unwritten law
woman must not take, and, indeed, does
not want to take, the initiative has very
little to do with the extremely limited
choice which modern conditions impose
upon English Tomen.-Nineteenth Gen.

| The Queer Mistakes That Are Some
times Made by Authors.
We smile as we read and pass swiftly
by the stories Of maidens that wander
in lonely woods" at unearthly hours
Of night, always clad in 20 soft, white
clinging gown" Now, every girl knows
that the average maiden is too much
afraid Of tramps and snakes to wander
in 'lonely woods" The weather, too,
appears to perplex our novelists, for
not infrequently they begin q chap
ter at dawn, there are a few mo-
ments' conversation, and then the "sun
sets in lurid banks behind the distant
empurpled mountains"
am reminded at the outset OF an
English story written by an author Of
repute where the heroine in one scene
! was made on one page to stoop down
and tie her shoestring, while three
pages farther on, directly following, 1t
was said of the same girl that she had
remained barefooted the entire day. In
another story q blind woman is made
to view the hero through spectacles be-
fore the tale is ended.
In a French novel-and we generally
consider French such literary masters
-, heroine is clearly made to go direct
from her bed to the breakfast table,
out shopping, to an afternoon tea and
to dinner in her robe de multi Cousins

merous in this detectives library. Thus
one is amused to find the most mar
yelous mistakes in books which we
think we have carefully read.-Modern

PlTH AND POINT.

Very few people want to know the
truth unless it fits their prejudice.
Every one who doesn't like you is
looking for a chance to laugh at you.
A great deal Of nerve is sometimes
necessary to keep from being cranky:
You know a whole lot if you know
enough to know you don't know any
thing.
When boy is not invited to party,
he hangs around the outside to see how
things are going.
When dressmaker makes quilt
out Of silk scraps, the women begin to
look at her with suspicion.
Every one is some kind Of q sinner.
The employee too honest to take post
age stamp will steal his employer
time.
Be sensible with your children. When
you want them to do thing, tell them
why. Don't tell them they must do 1t
or take beating, or that they must do
it because you say so.-Atchison Globe.

Artificial Stone.

Quarrymen and stone dressers will.
probably be gradually crowded out Of
their occupation by the use Of artificial
stone. In the manufacture Of this stone
the sand is heated and the cement add
ed to the amount Of u per cent Of the
mixture. The steel molds are filed
with the dry material and moved into
an immense cylinder, which is closed
and bolted. Boiling water is then
turned in under pressure sufficient 10
force it all through the sand in the
molds. The cement slacks, but the
steel molds do not permit any expan-
sion to occur, and the stone is formed
and dried under an immense pressure.
The result is a very hard stone, which
can be supplied in shapes desired anl
much cheaper than the natural stone.

Swallowed Two Pounds of Stone.

Stones do not form part Of the rec
ognized diet Of the cormorant, but one
Of these birds in the National Zoolog-
ical park in Washington had craving
which could be satisfied only by eat
ing two pounds Of stones. The keep
er's attention was attracted to the bird
because after having once sat down
it couldn't get up. he was picked up,
and then the stones were heard rattling
inside of him. An official connected
with the park decided that something
must be done, and he promptly cut the
cormorant open and relieved him Of his
burden. One Of the stones, of irregular
shape, was 37A inches long. The in
cision was sewed up, and for five days
the bird got along all right, the wound
healing finely, but at the end Of that
time the coEmorant grew restive and
pulled out the stitches with his hooked
bill. AS consequence Of opening uI
the wound he died.

Old Militia Elections and New

From the American Revolution to the
year 1923 the officers Of the militia OF
the state Of New York had been ap-
pointed by the council Of appointment
upon the recommendation Of command
ing officers Of divisions, brigades and
regiments, and the promotions were
generally made according to rank and
seniority. Under the new constitution
and the militia law Of 1928, and In &C
cordaace with the democratic spirit Of
the period, the election Of military OIL
GERS became the established usage and
has continued until the present day.
The election Of officers in 1928 and fol-
lowing year was attended with consid-
erabic ceremony-otncers attending
them in full uniform, and ncncomm1s-
stoned officers and privates in undress
uniform.-Clark's History.

THE HONEYBEE.
its Curious Jaws and Its Wonderful
Little Tongue.

With the closest scrutiny it becomes
e"idcnt that the bee does not, like
other creatures, house its tongue in its
routh, but neatly folds it back beneath
its head. Bumblebecs, when disturb
81, have way Of threatening with
their jaws, while the honeybee has
the more direct method of settling in
tIuders with her sting.
The jaws Of the bee are very credit
able organs and can give quite q for
nlidable nip. Catch q bee in ret and
see how viciously it will bite at the
nleshes, working it's Jaws sideways il
stead Of up and down.
We call this wonderful implement Of
the bee q tongue, but in reality it IS
more than this, for the whole arrange
rlent consists Of two slender filaments
called maxillee, the under lip and the
actual tongue. II q drop Of honey lies
lear the surface Of a flower, the slen-
Ger, active tongue, darting out from
the case formed by the maIillae, hcks
it up with the same ease that q dog
licks q plate. Should the tube Of the
flower be elongated the bee has at
command another length Of tongue,
which is shot out from within and
shuts up like telescope when 10
longer wanted.
To appreciate fully this delicate
organ you should watch the bee sepa-
::ate it into it's component parts and
clean it out. The lengthening process
Of the proboscis, as the tongue and its
allied parts are sometimes called, is
accomplished by series Of springs and
hinges. In addition to this telescoping
power, the tongue is a hairy member,
the hairs arranged in rings, the longest
ones toward the center. They assist in
lifting in the nectar and in pumping it
into the mouth. Thence it goes to the
honey sack.-Chautauquan.

Noncooking Restaurants.

Odd as it may appear to dwellers in
small cities, some Of the down town
restaurants Of New York are in build
ings in which no cooking is allowed.
Some Of the busiest Of the midday res
taurants purchase all their meats and
stews already cooked and merely heat
them through again before serving
them to patrons. This branch Of the
restaurant business has reached such
proportions that the mere operation Of
cooking for such places has become On
established business, and owners Of
ovens thrive at it.-New York Sun.
