on the cover of each box pasted por-
trait Of Mr.. Brewer
A few years ago the justice was IN
Topeka on a business trip. The hotel
clerk recognized him, and the negro
bell boy. although he had no idea who
the newcomer was, knew from the
way he was ordered about that the pa
tron was Of some consequence. Going
no in the elevator, the negro stared
constantly at the tall, dignified man.
Suddenly the black face was wreath
ed in smiles. and the boy said:
"'Scuse me, boss, but amt you dt
gemmen dat invented dem 'Ouah Jes
tice' cigars"
This reminds one of the man who
was recalling famous persons who
"parted their names in the middle"
"And then" he said, there is Il Plu

Don't wear your cap over your ear.
Don't wear your cap tilted down

Don't wear your cap on the back OF

Don't wear your cap askew.
Wear it firm and square on the top OF

Christianity In Japan.

There is nothing very remarkable In
the report from Japan that move
ment is on foot, supported by many
eminent men, to found a church pro-
Christian in character, but independ-
ent in its lines. When Buddhism was
disestablshed and disendOwed in the
early seventies Of last century owing
to the momentary asceDdency OF Shin
to, which is merely vague ancestor ana
nature worship, it was prophesied by
acute foreign observers that Japan
would either adopt Christianity or be-
come frankly materialistic. 1t will not
be owing to any lack of energy on the
part of European and American mis-
sionaries if the former course is dis
carded. Here is one forecast publishes
fourteen years ago: ITO make all "a
pan Christian by edict some fine niorn'
ing is not on the programme Of the
Japanese statesman OF the hour, but
that something of the kind should hap
pen within the next twenty years Is
not nearly so unlikely as many things
that have actually happened In this
land of realized imprObabilities.'

English Music Sellers.

London Truth relates that certain
country music sellers found half hours
of their valuable time wasted by young
women who turned over sheets OF mu-
sic land perhaps tried them over on
piano., only to purchase a single song,
the profit upon which was only ? or 3
pence, and, recognizing that women
Justly desire an opportunity Of trying
over a piece before they buy 1t, they re-
solved to make q small charge for the
accommodation they afforded. one
leading provincial music dealer makes
a charge of shilling an hour for the
use of his piano and music. The wom-
an may in that time try over as many
songs and pianoforte pieces as she
likes, and If her purchases come TO
certain amount the shilling an hour Zee
: Is either reduced or entirely RENTED

PRE-EMPTED BY BIRDS.
The Noodles That own Bird Key In

The Noddfes That own Bird Key, In
the Gulf of Mexico.
Ont in the gulf Of Mexico sixty-hve
miles from Key West toward the set
ting sun rise half dozen barren SAND
bars from the exquisite turquoise blue
waters. One of these, Garden key, Is
government fort and coaling station;
another is the Loggerhead key, our last
OUTPOST toward Cuba and Central
America. Other islets are untenanted
save when the great sea turtles crawl.
One alone, Bird key, is pre-empted Dy
the birds. 1t would be hard to find
a more desolate or isolated region.
Though the climate Is warp, through
out the year, it is not vii May that
the feathered hosts ar11ve from the far
south at this sarIy rendezvous. In the
van come TIN loddies, few about the

DAYS. =. week later the sooty terms

nearly all the birds had eggs and were
devoting themselves to their family
cares.
To reach the buildings from the little
landing place we had to pass through a
tract of bushes, and here 1t was that
saw the first nests of the noodles. Up
on the tops or in the forks of the bush
es each pair had built rather rude yet
fairly substantial platform Of sticks
only slightly followed, and upon eacn
one sat a dark gray bird. There was
something about these graceful little
creatures that instantly took me by
storm, a case Of love at first sight. The
noddy is very much like a dove-ex'
cept for its webbed feet-in size, III
form, In the softness Of Its plumage
the expression Of Its large dark eyes
and it's gentle, confidlng ways. There
is no wild alright as the stranger ap
proaches. Just q shadow OF fear Is EVIL
dent, but the birds sit quietly on theil
nests. hoping and trusting, and do moi
fly unless approached almost within
arms reach. Then they fit gently
away, alighting upon a neighborlne
bush until the intruder has withdrawn
when they return directly to theil
charge. 1t seemed remarkable to fno
birds so perfectly tame.-Outing.
