court upon the policeman's statement that
the prisoner had given him no trouble
and had been punished enough. IL came

SITS the simplest thing in the world
wa the reply. in most cases the reason
that Q man is behind in his rent Is because
he has met with o streak Of hard LUCK and

After the other countries have bad 1t all
their own way for a long time the United
States Is going TO retaiiate. A New York
impresario has organised a stock company
which Is to take a troupe Of American
opera singers TO Italy next winter. The
organization will be made up in New York,
but will sing opera in Italian, and the MEM
bers will be Americans. After 1t has travelled
through Italy the company will visit other
European cities that have in the past con-
tributed to our operatio performances.

plan OF revenge to come into existence.

he said. 1T doesn't go with modern ten

and hidden drawers. Nobody nowadays
is supposed to deal very extensively in
death warrants and treacherous intrigues.
Nevertheless there Is really a brisk de-
mand for those secret reoesses. 1t is

style Of writing desk architecture; but the
men by no means despise 1t, and we fire.
