English as She is Wrote.

There has recently been an outburst
of English signboards on the outside
of shops in Japan. These signboards
manifest a audable desire to cater
for the needs of English travellers, but
the method of expression is curious:
Barber to Shave Beard or to Dress
Hairs Away" appears several times,
the hair cutters being apparently in
debted to a public translator for the
rendering.
The Genuinely Bier by the Health
for Drink"
"Of Smokes Our Tobacco Is Pres
sure to Our Tongue and Give the
Healthiness to Hers and Hes. Also
All People by It."
Another sign is an odd blend Of
English and Japanese:
"Cowmeat and Pigmeat and Ramune
SCUBA Sasupre Tin Sinbiya Jinjyael."
The latter, being interpreted. is:
Beef and Pork and Lemon Soda,
Sarsaparilla. Ginger Beer and Ginger
Ale"

Her Mother-in-CaW.

Recently at one of the large hotels
in Liverpool several enthusiastic stu
dents of old coins were conversing on
their favorite subject.
After discussing the value OF certain
coins for some time, an old fellow in
the corner of the room said he had a
coin which bore the image of the
queens mother-in-law.
The company wouldn't believe 1t,
but the old man persisted, and said
he would wager S25 that he could
prove 1t.
"Done!" exclaimed one of them.
and the money was staked.
The old man then handed coin
over for their inspection.
