then be used for its weather bureau.
An employe in French tobacco fac
tory has invented a machine which
makes the head on cigars after they
are rolled and does the work of about
a dozen hands.
Generally speaking, Frenchmen are
not chewers of the Indian weed; but in
the manufacturing districts, where
men work II hours day and cannot
smoke during that time, they chew.
Paris has a municipal department
that not ONLY moves large trees from
place to place, but takes such as are

are restored to vigor and then set out

Partisan thieves have discovered a

The porter grinned, but said moth

''Sit down, please, and try to look

crowd, and then began a shower of
rice. Every man in the party had rice
in each one of his pockets. Every girl
had bag of it concealed beneath her
wrap.
"Damnl" said the masculine trav.

"Thank you," said the girl. "Please
say il again for me-"
Finally the train started and their
tormentors were compelled to leave.
Afterward the ribbons were torn down
and the roses thrown out of the win
dow.
But the troubles of that very much
unmarried couple were not yet at an
end. They went in to dinner together,

friends had preceded them. For they
were shown to table decorated as
had been the sleeping car section, with

ever, is anticipating the story.
The young lady In question went
down to Chicago some months ago to
visit relatives. While there she met
number of young persons, and, as
she is something of a practical Joker,

Finally their opportunity came. A
day was set for the visitors depart

was also ON his way to Minneapolis.
