Took the order Literally.

A suburban golf club has Japanese
steward named Ocka. He is an ex-
ce1lent cook and his neatness and good
taste are beyond question, but he has
a very, slight knowledge of English,
and this sometimes causes him to
make ludicrous mistakes. A young
woman gave tea at the clubhouse
and sent for Ocka few days ahead of
time, so that all the details of, her
party might be perfected. She ar
ranged for everything and at the end
said: "Now Ocka, at the tea we must
have apple pie order" Yes, madam,
apple pie" Ocka returned. '"No, apple
pie order" said the young girl. 'All
right Me understand. Apple pie"
Ocka repeated with an obstinate smile.
"Apple pie order" the other corrected
again, and .Ocka took his leave. He
served at the tea along with the dainty
little sandwiches and cake twenty huge
pieces of apple : pie. - Philadelphia

The Astute Salesman.

An astute salesman was enjoined by
his employer to be strictly honest. but
to sell goods. Next day the salesman
displayed some new fabrics. saying to
the lady shoppers. Here is some calico
that looks just like silk" But they
turned up their noses scorne.lly. The
following day he said 70 the same
shoppers, Here is sozne silk that is
made to look like CALICO" and they
bought every yard of it, This shows us
that We should use due Judgment as to

The n.me o. rne Kindergarten.

The Japanese have the most perfes1
kindergarten system In the world. In
eact, they originated this method of In.
structing by entertainment instead of
by punishment inflicted. Their play ap
paratus for such purpose is elaborate
but all of it is adapted to the infant
mind WHICH it is designed at once to
aamuse and to inform. The little ones
of Japan even become somewhat inter.
ested in mathematics by seeiig and
feeling what q pretty thing a cone. q
sphere or a cylinder is when cut OUT
of wood with lathe. They make out.
lines Of sclid figures out of straw, with
green peas to hold the joints together,
and for the Instruction OF the blind fat
blocks are provided with the Japanes~

Used when Henry Beresford, that odd
comedian, makes his appearance at
our cosy playhouse In George Ell.
BrOadhurst's frisky farce 1.-THE Wrong
Mr. Wright" This young man comes
80 us with the prestige of success
stamped upon his efforts. He Is said
10 be grotesq1e, amusing, awkwardIy
graceful and his mannerisms and
verve are said to be magnetically
chaming. In this Broadhurst play he
fs said to win laugh with every line
ne speaks, and his role--that of an
old woman-hating bachelor who be-
comes srnitten with sleuth in petit
coats, yet tries to hide his infatuation
from his nearest and deaEest--causes
many ridiculous complications which
produce the most hilarious and mirth-
provoking situations. His manager,

yUung star with q company of players,

The sun MYTHS.

1t was in Bayard Taylor's day that
the sun myth had it's vogue One night
at a party Taylor was greatly oored by
the persistent efforts Of guest to dis
cuss sun myths. No matter what direc-
tion the conversation might take, this
person would ruthlessly drag it back
again to his favorite topic.
At last the distressed poet raised a
very interesting question in regard to
the threadbare subject. did you ever

so common all over the world. is de-

invited to exchange pulpits with a

Arriving early. he peered from behind
the pulpit and watched what he con-

Owls In Asia Minor.

Perhaps Asia Minor is richer in crude
country. When children hear an owl
hooting from the cypress groves, they
cry. Good news for us; good messages
