Letter That Really Was Mailed.


Out of the broad window of fifth
story fiat young man and a young
woman thrust half their bodies just as
another young man in a silk hat and a
newmarket coat came out of the en-
trance hall and started to walk across
the street. He was carrying a white
envelope in his right hand.
Hold it up!" shrieked the girl from
the windows hight.
Right before your eyes!" howled
the man beside her, noe Of glee in
his voice.
Without turning his head the man
on the street held the envelope up
before his eyes with firm grip and
a do-or-die expression on his face.
When he reached the letter box on
the corner he dropped the envelope
into it, and, turning toward the house,
made a low bow, with his hat in his
hand.
Hes done it," shrieked the girl.
"Hurrah for Jimmy!" yelled the
man.

LATEST FASHION IN DOGS.
London Women Paying Extravagant
Prices for Little Pets.

The fashion in dogs changes so
quickly nowadays that ii is difficult to
hnow what particular breed is "in. y
aides are the chief movers in the
matter Of canine modes, and the pro-
verbal femirine ficlkleness causes
much trouble to the dog dealers, who
are suddenly called upon to supply an
unexpected demand for some hither-
to neglected breed
A short time ago for instance, Japa-
nese pugs were all the rage; before
then the ugly little Belgian griffons
elbows and schipperkes. Now it has
been rumored that the fashion OF
Charles IFS time of carrying arm
dogs" which has been revived by one
of the leading London actresses, will
create a new demand for miniature
species.
One novelty is the Cuban poodle, a
tiny dog about the size Of small toy
terrier, but with the characteristics of
a poodle and shaved as such.
1t is scarcely likely that. the Cubar
poodle will become fashionable
some time yet, as there are only few

New York-an organization that has
just issued a report showing that II
carries over 100000 passengers a
day, and takes in over $20,Qo0000 a
year-was talking the other afternoon
about the railways Of Europe.
"They are not as good as ours" he
said, "and this is because the Euro
peans are not so ready to visit us and
profit by our ideas as is the case with
us in America.
"A Chicagoan was in here talking
to me yesterday, and he said that
when he was abroad last summer
he found the railroads OF Scotland
atrocious. He said that Oh one OF
those railroads one day the train
stopped in a desolate country and the
guards got out, sat down on a rock
and ate their lunch.
1.-THE Chicagoan put his head out of
the window and shouted:
"'What is the matter? Why have
we stopped in this forsaken spot?'

Orders from No One Knows Where
Obeyed to the Letter.
Things sometimes happen in India
which puzzle even those who have
made lifelong study of Indian mat
tiers. Tree-dau ing and well-poison'
ing are we'll known, and very re.
markable movement, which has lately
been taking place in Behar, must be
added to the list.
A strange order was circulated some
weeks back in the district that for the
space of 21A days sons should not look
on their fathers, nor fathers on their
sons, and that II the order were dis.
obeyed the time would be extended to
21A months.
Only Hindus were affected, and even
they could not, or would not. say
whence the order emanated. Thou

their villages, to the serious detriment
OF local business.
II all seems very funny and childish
but those who know India well seldom
treat such incidents lightly. For these
