Those inscriptions on the sides Of the curb
kitchens represented the greatest discomfort
OF the hour and they were literally covered
with TESTING,

somebody chalked on the side OF his cook

All the famous restaurants Of San Fran
cisco had located on the curbs--if you be-

called the Fairmont, and another across the
street advertised itself as the Unfairmont.
The Wayside inn and the Inside Out were
neighbors, and the House Of Mirth looked a
little like one OF those New England barn
yard structures that are put up at Thanks
giving for the smoking Of hams and bacon.
Over the tables In one Of the more preten'
tious restaurants was the printed advice:

him: but for Gods sake don't shoot the cook,
for we can't get another Hes doing the

humorist's idea OF what the board Of health

walls advice not to drink uncooked water.

displayed at the foot Of Market street.
At the top Of fight of marble steps that no
longer led anywhere was a marble slab taken
from the ruins and doing duty as directory
Of the tenants who had been forced to move
on account Of alterations on April 49,"

Something About Eels.

dispatch from Bellows Falls says that
for several days there has been such a rush
Of cells down stream there that waterways
have actually been obstructed. This may
be an exaggeration, but it has at least the
foundation that under some singular au'
tumnal impulse cells do rush down to salt
water before ice forms. 1t is an old trick
in the back country to catch them by put.
ting nets and baskets at falls in brooks that
make out OF ponds. 1t is even asserted,
but it is questioned. that no cells are found
in ponds that do not have some outlet that
will give them a chance to quit in the fall.
Another queer thing about cells is that no.
body in dressing them ever found one with
spawn in it, Nobody knows how they
breed, but it is admitted that they do mul,
tiply abundantly; and this at least is def
nitely known that. cut in sections after be.
ing killed and skinned. they fry into most
palatable article, whose sweetness is mitigat.
ed only by the inevitable and unwecome
fact that they will persist in frying crooked

NOT A TUG OF WAR.
But One Elephant Extracting the Tooth o.
Another.

To the uninitiated it may have looked
like a tug-of.war between two elephants,
when each end Of taut rope was in the
mouth of the elephants, but, in fact, 1t was
a plan devised by Peter Barlow, the elephant
trainer to extract an aching molar from the
lower jaw Of one of his elephants.
Tom, the clever elephant that does a
cake.walk, shayes an elephant, beats the
snare drum and is leader Of the elephant
band at Luna Park. has been suffering from
an aggravated form of liberated tooth for
several days. In order to reduce the swell
ing and relieve the pain Tom has been wear
ing in off hours a poultice on the side of his
face weighing 25 pounds. The poultice did
not suffice and therefore the only thing lett
to do was to pull the tooth.
But who could accomplish this and where
could a pair of forceps be obtained large
enough for the operation were the problems
that puzzled the animal man. Barlow
solved them yesterday by making one OF the
working elephants do the trick.
Tom sat on his launches and opened his
mouth, when Barlow used n drill to bore
hole through the side OF the offending tooth,
which was in the lower jaw. After this
piece of piano wire was passed through the
hole and tied in loop; stout piece OF
rope was tied to the wire and the loose end
given TO Judy.
Judy took the rope between her teeth and
at the word of command pulled with all her
strength, and Tom leaned back to aid her.
fully understanding what was being done.
The tension was so great that Tom was
pulled to standing position but the tooth
came out and he settled back with a sigh of
relief.
Judy is one of the working elephants that
were used in the construction of Luna Park.
She has pulled with her teeth two tons with
ease. Judy can lift bale of hay and carry
it as easily as q boy can lift an apple.--New
York World.

TESTS on Quaint Signs.

On the side of one of the curbstone kitch-
ems on Sacramento street some uncrowned
Nero wrote.
Eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow
there may be another earthquake.
1t wasn't meant to be taken too seriously.
Any one could see that it was a joke. And as
joke it was more helpful than another wall
sign, which read:
"Unless you repent, We shall all likewise
perish.
And, by the way, the context from which
that sentence was taken admonishes us not to
imagine that those who persisted were sin
ners.
A church in the western addition had a
sign painted over its door. One word was in
big, flaming letters, and that one word was
Hell

gave the added information: AT 7:45
p. m. Sunday

Scarless surgery is one of the lat-

The London surgeon who conceived
the idea and successfully put it in
practice is unable to meet the de-
mands for his services. The idea is
a simple one. In making the first in.
cision the scalpel does not cut the
skin at right angles with the surface.
but passes through it at a slant After
the operation is over the skin is Joined

the process devotes himself entirely
