The consecrated cross-eyed bear"
Not long after that unfortunate

his picture taken. and OF course he
wore his Sunday eye. 1t matched the

bon he took home for Mrs. Showers
when she was getting ready for the
jenkins girls wedding. but when
man has his picture taken nothing but
Sunday filings will do.

Lift your chin little and don't

man at the camera. who had not no
ticed the Showers assortment of look
ers. Then, while the long haired art
list with the soiled linen was fumbling
about for plate, Andy pushed that
OIL eye of his around so that it peered
into an upper corner of the room.
Now look about here at this card on
the door and hold still for Il second"
and as the picture maker thrust his
shaggy head underneath the dark cover
Andy leaned forward FOR an instant
and slyly dropped the sman-calibre
glass ball into his lap.

depths under the cover. Turn your
face trihe to the right, and then

Andy turned it, and the empty socket
doomed into the artists view like the
opening of a cyclone cellar.

at the machine. It's no time for the
drinks, but I'll make YOU dozen for

Guess that's about right for man

ought to have" said Andy
one week day pas Sunday eye was
missing. He searched the clock again
and again, but it was no use. the prize
was gone. Mrs. Showers hadn't seen
it, and Sallie couldn't imagine where
ia got to-" At the dinner table the
subject was taken up anew. Baby
Showers lisped his innocence. but for
some reason ten-year-old Willie did
not join in the discussion. He made
himself n mighty busy boy and kept
his eyes glued to the country ham on
his plate.

Domcstic Ice Mnohincs.

Periodically the question is asked
why there is nothing available in the
shape of q small ice or refrigerating
machine for domestic use. That such
a machine is in wide demand and
would meet with Il ready sale is gener-
ally admitted, so that to many it
seemed all the more curious, no doubt.
that commercial enterprise did not long
ago undertake TO solve the problem.
The whole question, however. may be
answered by the statement that no
better method of refrigeration has yet
been found than the use OF ammonia
or a similar system, which involves
the use of certain pressures and a GER
tain number of elements in the cycle,
such as compression. expansion and
condensation, regardless of whether
the plant is to turn out a fraction Of q
ton or a hundred tons. The handling
Of the refrigerating cycle and the safe
manipulation of pressure requires
skill-in fact, a skill somewhat above
the average. and which cannot be ex-
pccted from ordinary domestics. 1t,
therefore, seems that the facts as they
stand at present preclude the POSSIBLE
ity OF small domestic ice or refrigerat-
ing plants, and will so continue until
some system may be devised differing
widely from those now in use.-Cas-
sier's Magazine

Various theories are entertained by
people who have no children as to
when children should be spanked. how
they should be spanked. and when they
should not be spanked one authority
says they may be spanked until they
reach the age OF twelve. another de.
clares they should not be spanked at
NIL At last the situation IS cleared
by judicial ruling on spanking Judge
Tuthill, vino presides over the Juvenile
Court, i'm Chicago, places the spanking
age mt ter years. After a child is ten
years old. says the Judge. spanking
has no effect Notwithstanding the
generalization OF the learned Judge.
it is probably fact that the spank
ing age depends upon the child. and
The Judge might have added that i'm
most cases the parents should be
spanked and not the child. states the

FHoUsLE WITH THE CASHIER.

Hard to Balance Up.


one OF the most difficult positions to

where automatic cash registers are in
Use is that of cashier. The question is

20 check receipts with the figures
marked up on the register.
The cashier ut one of the largest
downtown places was recently dis
charged simply because she was often
or in her change; that is. the cash
register and the amount turned in at
night did not tally. 1t mattcred little
to the company when there was a
shortage. for, according to agreement.
the cashier made it up from her salary.
On many occasions there was even
overcash above the amount recorded.
The young woman turned i'm this over.
cash faithfully; the company dis.
charged her for having any overcast
at all.
When the young woman was dis.
charged, it may be noted incidentally.
she had become great favorite with
ne customers, and when t was learned
that they were TO see her no more
behind the cashiers desk. some one
started a petition. which was signed
by over 600 names and turned in to
the management. The management
decided to give the young woman an
other chance if she would come and
apply for the position, which she de.
clined to do
Another cashier was taken on in her
place and lasted exactly four days.
Another girl succeeded. she lasted
two days. Still another came and
lasted four days. In all eight girls
were tried out behind the marble desk.
and then the company was no better
of than at first. Days came when
there were shortages to he taken out
CT the young womens pockets. and
others when they honestly turned in
what was over and above the amount
on the cash register. But the shortage
and the overcash continued, and the
company has decided to give up ex-
reriments and charge the difficulty
not to the incompetence of the cashiers
but the difficulty of filling the position
without mistakes.

A false report that Mrs. Roosevelt
had said she dressed on $500 a year
caused much interest, some applause,
and 4 good deal of pain and anger-the
last sensations arising in the breasts
OF fashionable dressmakers. The White
House was deluged with letters, some
asking how the feat could be accom-
plished and n few, supposes Golfers
Weekly, inquiring as to the ways Of
getting $500 to dress on. The Lady
OF the White House stilled the tumult
by saying she had never made the re-
mark But, incidentally, a great light
was thrown on the cver-present sub
5ect OF dressmakers' bills, and the
main question remains, Can a woman
dress on $500 a year?"
