Refused His Own Medicine.

A noted surgeon of this city was
recently attacked by appendicitis
This surgeon performed last year
500 operations and lost but two, but
when he was told that he had to be
operated upon he objected, although
the operators were also noted sur
geons and intimate friends.
"Not on your life," said the pa
tient. Urging was of no avail, and
finally remedies unaccompanied by
the knife were used.
The surgeon was sick some weeks.

A LITTLE NONSENSE.
The SpscuIator's eupposition Was Toe
Much For the Listener.

The speouIator's supposition Was Too
Much For the Listener.
Suppose, !" said the mental specu-
lator, putting down his book and
lighting a fresh cigar, suppose
child's father dies and its mother
marries the second time. Then the
child has a stepfather and perhaps
stepgrandfather. Let us suppose,
further, that the stepgrandfather
dies or is divorced and the STEP
grandmother marries again. This
gives the child a step-stepgrandfa-
Their, doesn't it? Then we'll say
that the child's mother dies and the
stepfather weds again. Now the
child has step-stepmother. By fol
lowing this process of reasoning
along a few feet farther we can
equip that child with step-step-
grand-stepmother and step-grand-
step-step-stepmother, and a step
step-stepfather and a step-step-step-
father and a step-step-step-grand-
stepfather and"-
It was at this point that the lis
tener stepped away with stealthy
step, step, step, leaving the mental
Spectator still figuring out the
problem of what relation the STEP
uncle of the child's step-step-grand-
stepfather would be to the adopted
child of the stepsister of the step
step grand stepmother. = Chicago

Why He DisIikes Tramps.

Governor Bachelor of New
Hampshire dislikes tramps. zone
of my first experiences with
tramps," he said the other day,
happened in my early youth. On
a fine summer morning l was taking
a walk through the country. The
road was white and firm. In the
green fields the farmers worked in
their brown overalls. The birds
sang in the woods, and the air was
sweet with the scent of pine tree,
grass and flowers. In lonely place
a tramp lay under a tree. He rose
on my approach and in a melan-
choly tone he told me hard luck
story and asked for aims. I gave
him some small change, and then !
said encouragingly, Down there on
the left, my friend, there is farm
er who wants men to help him

Bees and Beer.

We have always looked on the bee
as a monstrously overrated insect,
says the London Globe. At the back
of our mind there has always lurked
a suspicion that his ostentatious
goodness was simply for purposes of
advertisement. This view is sup
ported by the behavior of swarm
at Enfield, which for two solid days
sat drinking stout by the barrel at
the Nag's Head. On the morning
of the third day they staggered
away. Perhaps somebody will re-
wise that poem of DR.. Watts:
How doth the little busy bee
Pursue his daily task!
He flies about till he finds stout
And drinks 1t by the cask.

in England sixty years ago. One
style. known as the guarded razor,
had q loose frame or guard of brass
added to the blade, it's purpose be-
ing to prevent the edge from pene-

the instrument was used by infirm
or nervous persons. Today we have
! dozen or more different kinds OF
safeties, and even boys are using
them for the youthful encourage
ment of whiskers.

Cheerfulness at Meals

Many people must have been struck
by the utter absence of interesting
conversation that is so marked a
feature of modern meals. In the old
en- days all the wit and brightness of
the day seemed to be focused into the
breakfast and dinner hours, and near
~ all the celebrated stories of bril-
liant repartee that have come down
to use were delivered during a meal.
But nowadays people talk over their
worries and bothers at the table.
look out trains and read papers dur
ing breakfast, and if they have got
anything disagreable to say to an
other member of the family, very
often choose a mealtime in which to
say it, says the Commercial Tribune.
Somebody once suggested that
children should be trained TO he
bright and cheerful during meals.
just as much as they are trained to
eat properly, for the one habit, like
the other, would cling to them when
they grow up and make them much
sought-after companions.
worry is very bad for the digestion,
and so is another fashion of seeing
how fast you can get through your
breakfast or lunch; certainly both
things react upon ones neighbors'
enjoyment of the hours that should
bring relaxation and good humor.

The MESQUITE In Hawaii.

It is said that q single mesquite
seed was taken from Angora to the
Hawaiian Islands in 1878 and plant
ed there. The seed took root and
grew. spreading as only the mesquite
bush can, and now there are said to
be 10000 acres Of it in the islands.
But it has adapted itself to its new
surroundings and is quite different
from the parent plant.

complete, the cost being fSe,977. 1t
will always be interesting II only for
the fact that 1t was erected by Robert
Louis Stevenson's uncle, Alan, who fol-
lowed the method adopted by his faith
err. Robert, in the Bell lighthouse. The
Skerryvore lighthouse Is 1881 feet
high; it is AZ feet in diameter at the
base and 16 feet at the top. The light,
which Is revolving one, can be seen
at distance of 1914 nautical miles
The tower is built on a rock which IL
about Is feet above high-water mark.
This Is the largest rock above water
Of the whole chain and Is about GO
yards long by 40 yards broad, but IL
so intersected by channels cut through
1t by the action Of the sea and Is so
uneven that walking Is difficult.
