They All saw 1t Move.

Mrs. Burton. with her husband, Sir
Richard Burton the famous traveller,
and two ladies, had driven out Of
Triest to village dance and were sit
ting in the carriage listening to the
band. In telling Of it she said:
Suddenly, at the top Of roof, I
caught sight Of rat, which appeared
to me to be speilbound by the music. +
I "Look!s ]. said. Don't move, but
watch that rat fascinated by the mu-
sic" .
4 So. we all sat. and watched 1t. and
thought. it, most interesting that rats
should be susceptible to music like liz
ards and snakes.
We all saw: it move We all saw it's
head turn and Its tail move, and we
kept still, not to brighten 1t away. The
next day. feeling SO much interested In
the affair. we sent to inquire about it.
The rat, it turned out, was made of
painted tin and fixed to the top Of the
house. So much for Imagination.

The Sham Sailor.

It happened at the Mansion House
police court. A man who claimed to
be sailor and who said that he had
been badly injured through an acci-
dent at sea was charged with begging
In the city. The chief magistrate
caught sight Of bluejacket in court
and, addressing him. said. 'sYou might
please ask this man some questions to
find out If he is sailor or. whether he
Is an impostor." The naval man stood
up, and, looking at the prisoner, asked,
"Can you tell me how many yards Of
canvas there are on the mainsheet p
After some consideration the sham
nautical man replied, 81 think about
sixty yards" 1t only remained for the
real tar to explain to the magistrate
that the mainsheet was rope and not
a sail for the beggar to be convicted

An ola Hunterso Advice,

Here fis the advice an old hunter
gives to those who may come IN un-
expected contact with bad animals:
IF you are cornered by a snake
stand motonless and he will never
bite. 4@
IF vicious dog attacks you show
him knife or some similar instru-
ment, and he will keep out of reach.
A dog can never learn the deadliness
Of revolver or a gun, but unless he
has the rabies he knows how to re.
spect a knife. d.
If a swarm Of wild bees attacks you
stand motonless and let out all your
breath. Then only few Of the swarm
will sting"
This advice should be reversed al
sea. A man who is swimming in shark
infested waters is safe as long as be
kicks about and makes a great deal Of
noise. The shark Is too tmid to ap.
proach anything that looks as If II
meant to fight.
"What would you do in case you
were cornered by cinnamon bear?
some one asked the old hunter
"say my prayers" he answered la.
conically.

insula. The other brother was the
cook In a cheap restaurant on South
Clark street. -5s-,.
The merchant sent to the cook a
draft for sufficient money to pay his
expenses out to Asia, and the cook
gave up his job and has started for
his brothers home. The interesting
thing about the whole incident is the
letter written by the wealthy mer-
chant which accompanied the draft. =
In the first place, the draft was made
payable In New York.
Il send you the money in a draft

brother from faroff Asia. "You can

studios That Are worIxroo 3,

All of the artists studios in New
York have not the magnificent interiors
that romance suggests. On the con-
trary, q great many Of the most ef-
fectve pictures are turned out from
rooms that are absolutely destitute OF
furniture, except for the working tools
Of the artist himself. Costly draperles,
beautiful objects Of art often take the
attention Of the painter from his work,
and there are quite a number Of the
most successful artists in the city
whose studios are bare and comforuess
as far as decorations are concerned.
They are regarded by the painter as
workrooms pure and simple, and ns-
theticism is confined to the Imagination
Of the painter himself. - New York
