Got a Lover Easily.

An amusing story is told Of the
browning Of the rose queen of a coun-
try district near Paris. The selected
queen, as one of the formalities Of
awarding their dover, was asked by
the mayor for the name of her fiance.

that a sweetheart was Indispensable,
the young lacy added timjdly: Il
thought the municipality provided
everything necessary" Straightway

Wanted Him to Work Hard.

Thomas A. Edison, the famous in
ventor, says Success has a keen sense
of humor, and never fails to use it
when an occasion presents itself.

mar 2ger to his room and said:

well when you, work hard"
The manager looked up, wondering
what Mr.. Edison would say next.

Elastic Paper.

EN-State Senator Arkell Of New
York has invented a kind of paper
which will stretch to a certain. extent
without tearing. There is a consider
able demand for such a paper-for in
stance, for lining sugar barrels, etc. A
great drawback about ordinary papers
is that they will not give a particle,
and therefore tear easily. The Japan
csc crepe paper probably. suggested
the new elastic paper.
