his air=hip, NJ. Santos said:

"'Then will you take me up in
your balloon?' she asked.

would be the first woman to ride in
Santos Dumont balloon.
"After dinner she said to me,

YOU ARE NOT so MANY.

Say, when you think you own the earth,
And by some right OF royal birth
You think you are Of nobler blood
Than those Of US who're made Of mud,
And by that are the best of any,
Go count yourself--you' re not SO many
Say, when you feel that you are what
The vast majority OF men are not,
And cannot be, because your make
Is far superior to theirs, please take
A little tumble, if there's any,
And count yourself-you re not so many
Say, if You have any idea that
You of all OF us know where you re at
And while mankind remains in doubt
You know just where you're coming OUT
Collect your wits, if you have any,
And count yourself-you're not so many
Say, brother if you have the gall
To think you really know it all;
To feel that you are better than
The ordinary, average man,
And that hereafter you will rise
To higher glory in the skies
Than those who do not have a penny,
Go count yourself-you re not so many.

Miss Annie Russell and Kyrle
Bellew last week gave practical ad-
vice to the students Of dramatic
school in New York which was en-
bellished with anecdotes and expe-
riences OF interest.
After pointing out the necessity
for the element Of personality in the
actors work, Miss Russell dwelt On
the dangers of egotism and personal
boasting.
But it is no longer a remarkable
thing that actors and actresses dress,
talk and behave like ladies and gen.
tlemen on and of the STAGE" she
said. Sometimes they feel them
selves even superior by reason Of
talent added to good manners. A
story of one OF our well.known and
well-liked actors illustrates this:
He was dining at a fashionable
house noted for smartness rather
than intellectually. The hostess,
in a burst of enthusiasm, said to
him:
"Oh, Mr.. So and-so, you don't
seem at all like an actor, but Just
like one Of our own men.
Quickly glsncing around the Ia.
bic he replied:
"'Good Lord. which, f"
Touching on the necessity for dig
nifty in the calling, the actress said !:
"Girls who in private life may be
as innocent madcaps as they ard
their friends delight in, would find
different Interpretation of their ac-
tons If they we're actresses. The
greatest circumspection is necessary
at all times. Beginners in any OF
the artistic professions invariably
adopt extreme mannerisms.
IL had letter from the west the
other day which said: Dear Miss
Russell. / am making collection
OF photographs and autographs Of
notorious actresses. and should like
to have yours said the actress,
illustrating the confusion in some
minds OF the terms "notabilityn and
"notoriety."

A certain small Tom was going out
to luncheon by invitation. His mother
was anxious he should behave we'll.
.but, wisely recalling that simplicity is
the essence OF all true politeness, gave
him but one caution: Act, Tom, as If
you we're at home; take what you want
with a Yes, please and decline any
thing with a polite No, thank you Be
as honest as at our own table" trust
ing that with his confidence estab-
lished the continual home sowing of
precept and example would bear its
fruit.
At night Tom reported results. 81

got a laugh on Inc once"
what was that?" inquired his moth
er.
"Well, we had baked apples, and
VIXEN It came my turn to be served

apple do you wontT"
"You told her of course" i~nterpolat-
ed his mother as the boy hesitated a
little. "YOu know. ! have often ex-

a choice when one is asked"

Mr.. nro,rnIng,. Appearnnee.

Mrs. Browning wore her hair in long
ringlets, which, falling very much over
her face and when seen in profile, sug-
gested the ~unpleasing idea Of blinkers
that harshly cut across the graceful
curves OF brow and cheek. It was this
style Of arranging her dark hair that
made Mrs. Browning look not old
fashioned, for that would have given
a touch Of sentiment, but strangely
out Of the fashion. Her slight, pretty
figure was rather disguised than set
Off by garments that fell Topping
around her. But, thank heaven, she
was entirely and utterly free from the
bad taste Of the self styled clever wo-
men who acknowledge themselves to
be failures as women by aping a mas

Scotch 0cDrin stone.

Years ago a Scotch great-grandpa
brought to America a piece OF sand
rock that some persons thought was
intended for a grindstone. What caused
them to think SO was not because it
was round, but on the upper side it
was followed out like a saucer, and
the other side had a small projection
like a chocolate drop in shape and
size. Soon this was discovered to be
what is termed a drip stone" and
when set in a shady place and the
saucer side filled with water will de-
liver crystal pure and cold drops from
the underside. The water is absolutely
clean and pure as the result Of this
homely process. The idea was original
ly taken from the or~ientals, no doubt.

latiOu, A hasty meeting was called on
the top OF the cars.
"Podeck," as usual. led the men, and,
turning to his ever faithful partner,
Pete. he hurriedly said:
pete, let's run ahead and take the

"'Tain't safe, Red" he said. Didn't

Podeck saw the point and hedged.
"Well, boys, l guess we're in for II.
What'r we do now?'
McCollum spoke up. Lets sue for
peace; I'm willin'."
A rush was made for the caboose,
where Cardigan calmly watched them.
1t VS. n hard dose to swallow, but no
compromise was now possible.
"Caddigan, you've got u.s." was Reds
brief introduction. I'VE want to go
back"
"Oh, you DO, do you? Aren't you hav-
ing a nice ride? It's cheap too. You
are not kicking on the fare, are your"
was Caddigan's rejoiner.
Not a word was said until McCollum
in his squeaky voice walled: "Och,

"Well, / guess not" said Cardigan.
"This is n through train; the first
stop is fifty miles out; the fare back
is only 3 cents a mile. and that will
give you n very cheap one hundred

Mt once, and Cardigan relented when

you owe me fare; you forgot 10 pay it."
A stop signal slowed up the train,
and the men dejectedly dropped along
side the track, a sadder and wiser
party. 1t was an extremely hot day;
they were over fifteen miles from East
Corinth, and a wide stretch of bottom
land lay between them and home. The
road was coal slack ballast and at
tracted the heat. AS old Sol was doing
a little striking on his own account, it
seemed that everything in range would
melt. What was said upon that long.

shade tree to rest under, would hardly
do for sensitive souls to hear. Yet,
under the circumstances, the recording

forgot to chalk up a full run.

made FOntaine's acquaintance in jail,
