Trials Of Postrnan,

Strange demands, that are for the
most part unknown to the general pub
lie, are quite commonly made upon
postmen, this being especially the case
In rural districts.
However widely education may have
spread there are hundreds Of postmen
who, every working day Of their lives,
r asked to read out aloud for the re-
cipients the letters that these same
postmen have delivered. A postman
in the North Riding Of Yorkshire as
sured the present writer that one really
extensive and prosperous farmer on
his round regularly paid him a penny
each for reading out aloud the letters
delivered. And in hundreds OF cases
the woman recipient will appeal to the
postman to do the reading, alleging
that her eyesight is defective and that
her spectacles are mislaid or broken.
The postman referred to above had,
too, many records Of strange questions
put to him. One Of the cOmmonest Of
there is: Are there any mourning
stamps to 60 with black-edged paper
and envelopes?" Another question of
the same kind deals with wedding
stamps" It is quite common, In the
case OF country gentlemen writing to
old servants. for the envelope to bear
the direction: "Will Mr.. $500, the post.
man, kindly read the enclosed to the
addressee, who is unable to read or
writer" The writer has spoken to post
men who, during long periods, have
regularly earned tips by following such
directions.
One of the commonest happenings as
regards all postmen is for some mar
or woman, generally a ledger, to inter.
cept them and say, do not deliver any
letters addressed to me except into my
W hand; my landlady regularly
steams open my letters, OF course
all that the postman can do is to ad,
wise the person to get a reliable address
or landlady. And the opinion is con
stantly being asked Of the Londor
postman as to whether envelopes, pro
duced for his inspection, have not beer
tempered with.-Tit-Bit

Clarence was Hungry.

Passers-by the Reading Terminal the
other afternoon were amused by q
richly dressed small boy, who, despite
the protests Of his fashionably gowned
mamma, insisted upon eating a hot
frankfurter sandwich and several
wafles served from the wagon Of an
old man who supplies the craving OF
newsbcys and other street urchins
But the little man Of wealth was hun.
CRY, and as he descended the steps of
the station his eye fell upon the wagon
Mamma, I'm going to have one OF
those cakes" he said, pointing to the
waffles.
mo, Clarence, dear, come on wei to
the hotel; you won't eat here on the
street; you can't have anything from
that wagon, dear"
But Clarence proved that he could
and would, for he stepped right up and
ordered ONE of the "cakes," which the
man supplied smoking hot. The frank
furter sandwich the lad downed with
equal relish, although his preference
for the waf1es was evidenced by his
taking a second order of them. The
mother stood by expostulating with
the boy, her handsome cloak floating
loosely in the wind, but Clarence was
boss and had his own way.-Philadel-

Surgeon Captain K. Tamura Of the
imperial Japanese army, addressed a
recent meeting Of the military surgeons
Of this country, and in the course of
his remarks DR.. Tamura called atten-
ton to the use Of paper for windows in
Japan in place Of glass. It is shown
that where no ventilltion can take
place through glass, the air passes
through the paper quite freely. More
over, the texture of the paper is such
that while admitting air, it prevents in
some degree the passage of germs
through it. This point was determined
by counting the number Of colonies Of
bacteria developed on media inside and
outside the house. 1t was thus found
that ninety-seven per cent. of the bac-
terra of the air were removed. The
speaker summed up in the adroit ORR
entail way: 1T is well known that a
citizen Of Paris inhales 1900 bacteria
germs in a day; one in Berlin, 5000 Of
them. We Japanese, who live in air
containing three times as many as
Berlin and twice as many as Paris,
inhale only 1000 bacteria germs in a
day, simply because we use paper for
the windows Of our homes."-Phila-
delphia Ledger.

Would Have His Hair Long.

Apropos of Richard LIE Gallienne's
new book, which Harper & Brothers
have just published, several stories Of
the author are going the rounds, among
them the following, which Mr.. lie Gal
lienne has good humoredly told him
self. When he was a young account
ant in Liverpool, long before he be-
came famous as a writer Of exquisite
prose and verse, he wore his hair sew
eral inches longer than the other lads
among his acquaintance. One day he
was summoned to the private Office of
the firm which engaged his youthful
services. The firm was composed of
four men, u of them a ~Scotchman,
and all were seated around a table i'll
digniied state when Lk Gallienne ap-
peared, wondering what he was in for.
"Mr. LIE Gallienne," said the Scotch
member. solemnly, and with a falling
infection, "the firm has decided that if
you haven't the necessary funds to
have your hair cut it will advance you
the sum of ~threepence for that pur-
pose" The young clerk, too indignant
to answer, turned in furious silence
and left the room. Strange to say no
further reference was made by his en-
ployers to the incident, and he has
worn his hair long to this day.

sIs your husband a strong-willeo
MANI? asked Mrs. Sampson Of her
neighbor, Mrs. Towne. After a mo-
ment's reflection Mrs. Towne replied:
Il don't know" she said, obviously.
Il always thought he was, but the other
day he went into a department store to
get a new rug for the sitting room be-
cause, he said, he wouldn't go another
day with III old shabby one.
HE happened to get off on the wrong
floor, and he came home with four
~Hew-fangled fiat irons and a porcelain
kettle, and no sign of a rug. So you
see I don't quite know what to say
about him since then.

you saw it right before you."-Youth's

It is q dreadful thing to be lovesick,
says the Philadelphia Press. That is
what an authority on the subject says:
Il know l used to think that such a
thing was only the result Of an over
worked imagination on the part Of our
fiction and love story writer's, but l
saw one last summer.
The fellow was handsome and sen
Sible, but it went hard with him. He
was madly infatuated with a young
girl, and she was equally daffy over
him. Parental consent could not be
secured, but all the arrangements were
made for an elopement.
.'The hour came, but the bride-to-be
came not. Soon a note came from the
girl. She loved the fellow, and all
that, would surely marry him, but
could not elope. She could not SO dis
obey and abuse her parents, who had
always been good to her.
ssWell, the fellow grew pale, stag
gered across the room and fell. A doc
tor was called in, and the diagnosis
vas slovesickness' in it's most malign-
ant form.
s'The man had a fine position, but
for two weeks he could not go to the
office. He had dizzy spells; he was
unable to sleep; he ate nothing; just
sat around and moped, and looked
well, he looked fierce. He had a doc
tor regularly, and may still have one,
for all I know, as it got SO bad I de-
cided to get out of the town for fear
it might become contagious.
GA mighty weak fellow; no force
Of character or will power you say.
The doctor doesn't agree with you.
He says such cases happen frequently
"a susceptible constitution or some
thing Of that sort. But, at any rate,
don't get lovesick."
