Lofty Buildings.

In the future history of Los Angeles
the year 1908 will mark the beginning
OF the era of lofty buildings. Prior TO the
present year business structures of i've
or six stories were the maximum in
height. Building permits already issued
for 1903, however, provide for ''skyscrap-
ers" of eight, nine and even twelve,
stories. What the future will have to
offer, in adaptation of the motto .'excel-
sior' to Los Angeles buildings, is merely
a matter of conjecture. 1t would not be
a wild guess to say that the lefty build
ings now in course of construction will
look squatty only a few years hence.
Such has been the experience of the big
eastern cities, and Los Angeles is fol-
lowing closely in. their track. Only a
few years ago a ten-story building was
a curiosity in New York and Chicago.
but now structures Of twenty-five stories
or more are not uncommon.-Los Angeles

Snake Killing Cats of Cairo.

A native woman living in Old Cairo
was entering her house when, to her
great terror, she perceived snake of
formidable dimensions, which had taken
possession of the hearth during the own
er's absence. The woman fed, leaving
the door open. Her cat then appeared
on the scene, entered, saw the cobra,
put up its back and tail, spat and other
wise manifested its hostility, and in turn
went out. A few minutes afterward it
returned in company with a second cat.
After similar exhibition both went ont
and returned with a third, and similarly
went away, returning finally with a
fourth Considering that sufficient force
had been recruited to kill the snake, the
four at once fell on the reptile, and after
a short but fierce struggle the latter was
literally torn to pieces.-Egyptian GA

There was nickel or two and many
pennies. The storekeeper counted

them out carefully. He was about to

Once more the beans were measured
out This time they were tied up, the
soap in second package, and the
ltorekeeper pushed them with beam
ing smile over the counter to the lit
lie girl He was about to sweep the
money into the sill when she spoke
again:

The Greek chorus about the stove
looked on sympathetically as the bag
of beans was opened, and its contents
once more reduced Then with the
three packages in her chubby arms,
the child started for the door. Half
way there she stopped, turned, reached
up to put the bundles back on the eoun-
ter. then delivered herself once more:
MY sister wants n stick o candy
for the baby
The Greek chorus snorted. The
storekeeper looked helplessly at the
beans, then at the child. But she
silently stretched out moist, fat hand.
A penny stuck to the palm. The man
picked it off and did up the stick of
candy.-Youths Companion.
