A Simple Trick Which May or May
Not Be Humorous.
This Is n simple trick, and every mar
rlcd woman can perform 1t. but it re
quires the assistance of confederate
with big bag of shining tinware on
his bnck.
First get husband with an extra
pair of slightly worn trousers in his
wardrobe: then have the confederate.
the man with the bag of tinwarc. come
to the back door and knock gently.
The wife must then peep out III a
frightened way, and Immediately the
man with the tinwarc tells n tale that
resembles an advertisement. The wifs
stops to think n few minutes. Sudden
~ she must rush to the wardrobe. but
only after the man rattlcs the brilliant
tlnware To arouse her. The wife must
walk back 10 the man again with tho
trousers. The man must take them
and hand the Wife few tin pans. All
the while the man with the tinwaro
must smile happily. AZ last the trans
action is completed. and, presto
change. the husbands trousers have
dlsappcarcd' and in their place appears
some tlnwnre on the Kitchen table
This trick is very novel and will
amuse the husband greatly. The trlcl,
should not be performed while the
husband is In bed unless he has an
extra pair OF trousers.-F. Z. Pltzer IN

TRAVELLING IN EUROPE.
What It mcana 20 Ride Second Glass en-
the Railroads.

\ dcluslon OF the guidcbooks Is tho
advice to ride second class OH the rail
roads Of Europe. 1t is often pointed
pnt that first class and second class are
frequently but divisions OF the Same
car, and this makes great Impression
on tho inexperienced traveller, particu.
larly If his pursr is limited Landing
ut Plymouth, Southampton. Iayre,
Clcrbourg. Liverpool, you are ut once
conveyed TO London or Paris on steam
or trnlua," under the same excellent
conditions that have prevailed OH your
trip, but thereafter YOU are at your
own resources. and if YOU ARE wise you
will not only travel first class, but you
Will see TO 1t that your seat Is always
engaged we'll ahead If you travel sec

ample, Is about like boarding Il train
for Concy Island ut Brooklyn bridge on

YOU do get II scat somebody else sand

Another point 10 be remembered is
that In Europe YOU cannot engage Il
