Afr. Bowser had hardly got over pant
Ing from his exertions when the svege:
table man alled-.one Of the twenty
vegetable men passing through the'
street daily. He called from his wagon
on the street, from the c6rbstone, from
the gate. from the basement window.
He announced that he had beets, pota.
toes. onions. radishes, cucumbers, as
paragus end beans and that the same
were of his own raising. and he stuck,
toshis text for ten long minutes.
Then the basement door suddenly
opened and he was looking for the
cook to appear and buy out his whole
load when Mr.. Bowser stepped forth
and began performing. He also caused
the vegetable man to perform. Beets,
potatoes, radishes and cucumbers
darkened the air, while asparagus,
onions and beans covered the lawn and
told Of a 'bountifuI harvest.
Tte vegetable man had been left an
orphan at an early age and had learn
ed to depend upon himself, but he was
caught in the food and swept of his
feet and rolled over and over until he
was clear of the yard. When he finally
returned to consciousness he was seat
ed on his wagon and was half mile
away and shouting "coap instead OF
vegetables"

The strain ON the Eve.

There is no reason why a muscle or
muscles of the eye should not be fag-
ged out just as the muscles elsewhere
do. Let one bear weight all day long,
does he not attribute his consequent
headache to the heavy burden he has
borne? 1t seems without elaborate
thinking we could conceive Of the re-
suits following upon prolonged use Of
the eye Nature has done all she could
to protect and prolong the usefulness
If the eye. No earthly architect ever
yet planned structure that would not
yield, crumble and fall. and the. house
human, so exquisitely uplifted in Curl
Gus and mysterious ways, falls and re-
turns to dust more rapidly and surely
than need be, for the reason that we do
not realize how much one part Is sus-
tained or overthroWn by another. One
tiny muscle Is potent enough to disturb
the whole economy, especially if inter-
current diseases exist in addition to
"eye strain"

wild Animals In Captivity.

care wild animals happy in captiv-
ity?" said the keeper Of the geological
gardens, in answer to question asked
by a visitor. "Well, at first thought 1t
may sound strange, but they are hap
py, and some of them are very, very
happy.
"It seems to be the general opinion
that when the liberty of an animal
used to free life in the wild woods Is
taken away the animal will pine away
and die. That's pretty bit Of senti-
ment, but apparently it's all wrong
You would naturally think that wild
animal in captivity would become dan
gerous, but such Is not the case.
"Take the monkeys, fofs instance.
They look yery>unhappy, don't they !!
Why, those little lmps play from morn
ing till night, and they're as cheerful
as larks, excepting when they are ILL.,.
Go In the bird house and listen to the
songs, the chirps and trills, then look
around for an unhappy bird. Watch

NEW SHORT STORIES
how Great Song Was Made.

BOW q Gre0t song "ab Nlaoc.
Bizet, the famous composer Of Gar
men," and Halevy, his librettst, had
warm argument over the original score
Of the toreador song. When Bizet SUBJ
mitted it to Haleyy's judgment the lat
ter remarked that it was good-too
coed, in fact.
Its SO good" he continued, "that 1t
will never be popular. The public
won't comprehend 1t. You ought to
put more snap and swing into It, and
then you will get your eneores."
"Great heavens" retOrted the piqued
Eizet. "Do you want me to write for the
slums" And he went out Of the room
in huff Thinking over his associ-
ate's advice, however, he concluded to
try the effect of revision and 80
changed the score that 1t bore but little
resemblance to Its original estate.
Listen to this" he said later, re-
turning to Halevy's apartment. Here
is my toreader idea written down to
your popular level"
Halevy after listening to 1t warmly
approved of the new score, and the
song was given as we now have It 1t
was the great success of the first night,
while the rest of the opera failed for q
time to command popular favor.-Chi-

-.p.o.ident For n Day.

David r. Atchison Of Missouri had
the unique honor Of being president or
the United States for one day, and that
was Sunday, March 4, 1s4o. The term
of James X. Polk expired on the morn
ing of that day, but, as 1t was Sunday,
the president elect, General Zachary
Taylor, was not inaugurated until next
day, March.5. Ip consequence the pres
ident pro tenn. of the United States
senate, D. R. Atchison, was the acting
president on March 4, 1S49. However,
he had presided at Il night session OF
the senate, which lasted until away
after midnight Of Saturday, and he
slept nearly all day Sunday, without
realizing the fact that he was presi'
dent of the United States.

Arthur Was Timid.

Chester Allan Arthur was probably
the most timid of all the presidents In
the presence of newspaper men
To one newspaper man Mr.. Arthur
once made most particular exhibition
Of what the journalist was always puz-
zled to define, saying that 1t may have
been personal vanity and 1t may have
been real kind heartedness. The CORE
spondent was walking up Pennsylvania
avenue with his son, little shaver not
more than FIVE or six years old. Catch
Ing the child under the arms, the digni-
fed chief magistrate swung him to his
shoulder and held him there for mo.
ment. Before releasing him the presi-
dent kissed the child on the cheek. As
he swung him down to the pavement
Mr.. Arthur said:
when you are an old man you can
say that the president Of the United
States gave you ride ou his shoulder
and kissed you before he set you
down.

insidious and degrading habit. The

Birds have very acute vision-per'
