A Kindly Act,

A leaky spigot, big dog and a
tramp taught the passing throng on
F street the other morning little les
son in humanity. The big dog had on
no collar. He, like the tramp, was
battling for simple existence. He
had come to the spigot for a drink.
Just enough water leaked from it into
the catch basin beneath to whet his
appetite without gratifying it. His
eye. would folloW a drop with light
ming rapidity down through the graf
ed basin. He would then look up at
the spigot most wistfully. Of the
passing crowds there was none who
noticed him until knight of the
road" with tightly rolled blanket
flung over his shoulder, slouched past
the corner of Thirteenth and F
streets. Before he had crossed the
street he saw the dog and interpreted
at once his silent appeal. He went
straight to the spigot and turned the
water on full force, holding it until
the dogs thirst had been quenched.
The two tramps then sauntered off in
different directions. - WASHINGTON

Our Wooden Are.

They have saying in England that
when an American builds a house he
begins by cutting down the trees. The
picturesque lichen-covered, worm
eaten rail fences that used to zig-zag
across our western landscape were
source Of wonder and pain to foreign
ers who came from old countries where
the collecting of a bundle of twigs in
a forest preserve was punishable and
where royal princes planted trees in
public places to mark solemn events.
A hundred years ago it would have
been impossible to convince settlers in
any part of our enormous country that
the forests would ever be exhausted.
Then wooded land was land to be re-
claimed like swamps; the axe of the
pioneer hewed the path of civilization.
We had q wooden age. We slew trees
to make log houses, rail fences, bridg-
les. We burned trees in freplaces, cut
them up into telegraph poles, railroad
ties, fence posts. We made corduroy.

The juniors will appreciate this
glance of President Roosevelt as he
appears in the midst of his pressing
duties:
president Roosevelt appears to be-
growing larger and stronger every
day in the White House. His posi-
tiveness-sincere and earnest-is re-
f1ected in the poses which he assumes
while talking over matters with visit
ors in the big room from 10 a. m. to
noon. Now he sits sidewise in his
chair. Later he draws up three chairs
and places one squarely in front OF
the Two gentlemen to go at the beet
sugar proposition. An open letter In
his hand is folded and crumpled-he
listens as intensely as he speaks. He
may be sitting across one foot, tap,
ping the floor with the other, in per-
feet martial rhythm, to the tune of "A

CURI0sITlEs FROM THE TALMUD

Even Baron Munchausen Could Not
Equal These Stories.
Under the title, "A Dive Into the
Sea Of the Talmud," Henry Iliowizi
writes in the May Era:
Yam-Hatalmud, "The Sea of the Tai
mud" as some of the thousand and
one authors of that most bewildering
of Oriental literatures call it, is an
ocean wherein the whale that enter
tanned Jonah in it's stomach for few
days is considered one of it's smaller
creatures. A larger fish is the one
which Talmudic voyager CHANGED
to pass in ship, Gin the heart of the
mighty waters" Flying with the
velocity of discharged arrow, the
vessel consumed three days and
nights in it's passage between the
upper and the lower fins of that mon
strous prodigy. "And we were sail
ing with the wind,,' adds the narrator.
Another specimen of that kind. hav-
ing been killed by one of those small
marine creatures of whom the big
ones are in dread, was thrown ashore
with appalling results. For it's carcass
destroyed 60 cities; so other cities
lived for three months on the mon
ster's meat, while the, populations OF
60 more settlements looked out for
their future wants by putting a good
ly quantity of that fish in salt; from
the fat of one of it's eyeballs 300 watts
were filled with oil, and from it's
bones were, year later, the 60 ruined
cities restored. Dangerous as this ap-
pears, things would look much more
serious had not Providence in the be-
ginning emasculated the Leviathan
and killed his mate, lest an increase
of that prodigious species should undo

SHE TIED THE WRONG sHOEsTRING
Very Embarrassing Predicament Caused
by Carelessness.


Very Embarrassing P1edicament Caused
by Carelessness.
A handsomely dressed lady, riding
recently in crowded Amsterdam ave-
nue. car, was fortunate enough to have
a seat, but when nearing her destina-
ton noticed that the lacing of her OK
ford tie was unfastened. 1t was the
work of moment, but very warm and
trying moment, to stoop down and
knot it securely. When this was &C.
complished, her hat and veil readjust-
ed, and her gloves once more carefully
put on, it was time to signal the con-
ductor. This she did, AMI after two
vain attempts to rise looked around
Indignantly to find the cause OF her
retarded movements. She came face
to face with very irate gentleman
who had been sitting next to her.
"Madame-madameISwhere are you
trying to take me?" he demanded.
"I-you!" she stammered.
"Yes-lool1 there!" He pointed to
the floor, and in an instant she had
grasped the situation. BY mistake in
cropping she had found the lacing of
his shoe, which she had mistaken for
the other end of her own, and had
fastened them so carefully together
that it took the gentleman quite five
minutes to effect release, under the
amused glances of the other occupants
of the car, which had travelled twice
that number of blocks before the lady
was ready to give another signal

the picture. To make it take a piece
of barrel hoop, eighteen inches long,
shaved to one-half it's width, and bend
it into the form of an ellipse. Place
the cross bars as shown. in the illus
tration, and cover it with two thick
nesses of tissue paper.
The last, or upper part, of the kite
is made with heavier piece of barrel
hoop bent into the form of a bow,
with round stick tied across, where
the string comes on bow
Now you are ready to make the mu-
steal part Of the contrivance.
After having completed the kite, as
in the picture, take piece of bamboo
or fish pole, cutting it at the joints,
leaving the joints at the extremities.
Make one hole in the middle of the
front joint, to face the wind, and two
other holes of the same dimensions at
the other joint.
Then tie the piece Of bamboo firmly
to the top frame of the kite, as in the
illustration. You will find that the
wind will produce a whistle, on rum
bling sound, in the bamboo loud enough
to be heard quite distance. If you tie
the kite above the roof Of the house
the sound is like that of harp.

Locked in Cage by Jealous Wife,

Three days and three nights locked
IN cage simply because his wife
loved him all too fondly have proved
too much for M. Ravelote, a citizen
OF Paris, and he has appealed to the
courts for an absolute divorce.
According to M. Ravelote's story,
the jealous rage of his wife caused
her to have built in a distant room of
the house steel cage strong enough
to hold desert lion. He knew moth
ing of this until one day the wife, the
coachman and powerful maid SER
want bounced upon him and dragged
him to this distant cell. He was
thrust into it, the door slammed and
locked, and he was held a prisoner
there until the woman who so inno-
Gently had excited Madam Ravelote's
jealousy had left Paris.>
Even then Ravelote says that he
would. not have been released had
his brother not CHANGED to call and in
sist upon seeing him. In the long
days and nights in which he was
locked up the complainant says that
he was left to sleep without covering,
on the bare floors of the cage, while
food was passed him through the
steel bars.
In his bill of complaint Ravelote ad-
mits the sincerity of his wife's affec-
ton. He insists only that it's accom-
panying unreasonable jealousies are
intolerable to him. The storm which
led to the building of the steel cage,
he says, burst three months ago. One
morning. he remarked at breakfast in
the most casual way that a young
woman whom he had known as a boy
was coming to Paris. In an instant,
he says. crockery began to- fly ali
about the room, doing great damage
and seriously endangering his life.
Peace was made only after he had
promised not to see the young woman
while she was in the capital The
bull ing Of the cage and his imprisoa
ment followed. .S5s, 4; I s.sS| Il q G5 1#>
