The chaperon is not so much Of an
institution in the breezy west as she
IS in the east, and in some quarters
there are rather hazy ideas as to her
duties and responsibilities. One west
ern girl, the freedom of whose life
had made her exceptionally independ-
ent and s~elf-reliant, gave an excellent
illustration Of this at an eastern sum-
mer resort. She was under the pro-
tecting wing of an eastern patron
with very strict ideas Of propriety.
The matron found her charge one day
sitting on the hotel veranda with a
strange man, and naturally she was
perturbed. She took a chair reason
ably near them, to give the girl a
chance to present the young man, but
the girl ignored her. Finally, in des-
peration, the matron tried to instruct
the girl by signals what to do. but
the latter only smiled and shook her
head.
When the young man left the ma
iron asked who he was.
"Oh, he's from Denver" answered
the girl.
1T is a c%haperon's duty to decide
who are proper acquaintance for a
young girl" explained the matron.
you should have presented him to
me-"
Il suppose So" answered the girl,
nonchalantly. but, you see, he hasn't
q very good reputation, and so
thought 1t better you should not meet
him"

Got Rid Of Sharks.

THE waters around Martinique are
usually swarming with sharks" said
old skipper" Perry. a retired sea
captain. They have the reputation
of being ~man-eaters, which makes
bathing dangerous as well as an ex-
citing sport. / shall never forget
how, on one Of my visits to the is
land, the engineer enectually got rid
OF the monsters. He took a lot Of
bricks, heated them to a white heat,
took them down in the fire room, and
then poured oil over them. Then he
quickly got them on deck, and, with
the aid Of a pair of tongs, he threw
them overheard one by one. The
first one had scarcely struck the top
of the water before a hungry shark
swallowed It whole. The s%corching
brick inside naturally made him feel
as though there was a volcano in
his stomach, and he started to do all
sorts Of crazy stunts before disap-
pearing In deep water. Each a of
the hot bricks was swallowed by a
shark. and In a few minutes there
wasn't n to be een."-Philadelphia

ostrich Eqgs az Food.

Ostrich eggs are only a twelfth the
cost OF hen eggs. that is, so far as
South Africa is concerned. Hen eggs
cost rs cents a dozen, but ostrich eggs,
each of which is equivalent to 20 or
"a hen eggs. cost 10 cents. When re-
Quired for use the housewife makes a
small hole in the top Of the egg. The
quantity required is shaken out, and
the shell containing the remainder is
eorked up. as though it were a bottle.
So treated, the contents of the egg
keep quite a long time when care is
taken to place the corked shell IN a
cool place.
The authorities have strictly prohib-
tied the expectation Of ostrich eggs,
but the birds have been acclimatised
to South Africa. An American has
also founded an ostrich colony in the
south Of France, at Nice. The results
are that South Africa has dangerous
rivals in the field, and that ostrich
eggs may soon figure on breakfast
tables.

Giving the Game Away.

A sad story is told Of a sportsman
who rented a big shoot near London
on which the head Of game did not
coincide with the advertisement. It
was felt that something desperate
must be done, for royalty Itself
though Of a minor sort-was going
to attend.
A wire was dispatched to London,
and on the morning Of the shoot a
large number of baskets, containing
aggrieved and somewhat compressed
~pheasants, arrived at the mansion.
These were subtly conveyed to a
small cover on a rising ground, it be-
ing intended that just before luncheon
the noble sportsmen should be daz-
zled by the cloud of birds let loose
upon them.
The day wore on, with Indifferent
sport; but at length, placing his guns
round the little cover, the host smil-
ingly promised them something above
the common. The heaters entered,
led by the head keeper who wore a
knowing look.
