congressional district before the last
election, has returned from trip to
England, and is reported to be "a

JOKE ON PROFESSOR

ADVICE. asa
Pupil Faithfully Followed instruet'ens
and the Result Was Broken Rest B
for the Unfortunate Music
Teacher. f ~

The late Prof. Julius Eichberg.
whose violin school was at one time
one of the most fourishing institu
tions of Boston, enjoyed telling the
following Joke which was innocentls
played on him by pupil:
Just before the vacation season be |
once inquired of boy how much ne
intended to practice on his violin dur
ing the summer.
"Oh, not very much," replied the
youngster
Not very much! How is that?'
Because want to play and enjoy
myself There are many other boys
where we go summers"
That's very WE'LL" answered Eich-
berg, but can you not devote one
hour day to your violin?"
mo. SIR" was the prompt reply.
Half an hour?"
NO, not even that have no time"
1T is too bad. for you will forget
everything you have learned"
Eichberg stopped minute to think
and then said: efs,.s .s4
What time do you rise mornings
s ~
when on your vacation?''
Very early, sir--between, five; and
six"
Well. that's the best time. Put in
half an hours practice every morning
before you go down to breakfast
The boy promised faithfully to do
so, and teacher and pupil parted. on
| the best OF terms.
A few weeks later, Eichberg was
peacefully slumbering In one OF the
cool rooms OF fashionable summer
hotel. which he and his family reached
the night before, when he was most
inopportunely awakened by the furi-
| ous screeching of violin just over
| his head.
II wonder who the plaguey catgut-
| scraper is at this hour" grumbled he.
as he looked at his watch. and was
! Mortified to see that 1t was not yet six
o'clock.
Sleeping late as was his continental
habit, was altogether out OF the ques
| tion for Eichberg that morning, for
the outlandish screeching was faith
fully kept up Just half an hour, and
then suddenly ceased.
BY that time. however, he had
dressed himself, and having come
downstairs, was about TO enter the
dining room for breakfast together
with the usual early risers. when he

one Ingenious Device Was Made to
Represent = Huge centiped.

Probably the most wonderful and
ingenious achievement Of Chinese
kitemaker is designed to represent
gigantic centped, says a writer In the
World To-day This Is unquestlonably
the longest and most fantastic amusc-
ment device that has ever been con.
structed for aerial flight From head
to tail II measures nearly 40 feet, and
is made to fold up accordionlike. The
fierce large head Of the creature. with
long protruding horns, huge eyes and
gaping mouth. forms the front of the
kite. This is the gem and marvel of
the whole collection and entirely new
to the eyes Of the western world.
Its construction fs az follows: Ex-
tending from head to tail and consti-
tuting the body portion are series OF
bamboo sticks running crosswise to
the center, to which are fastened 20
or more pasteboard disks foot or
more In diameter. These are painted
in circles Of black, yellow and white,
representing the allseeing eyes of this
NEUROLOGICAL creature. A tail portion
of narrow strips is fastened to the
last piece of bamboo. BY a mechanical
contrivance the curved pieces of paste
board forming the eyes are made to
revolve by the wind while the kite Is
being flown. Seen In the air, the SER
pentinellke motion. its huge glaring
eyes swiftly twirling In their sockets,
the effect is said to be astonishingly
realistic, producing quite an awe-in-
spring scene, to the Chinese mind at
least. While being flown a cord is at
tached to three or more points of its
length, in order to keep II under con.
troll. In a strong wind, several men
are required to hold the reel. un-
doubtedly we have here one Of the
first and most ancient patterns of fly
ing machines. thousands of years old

of python reticulata. about 25 feet In

swan weighing rs pounds and two
days later a roebuck of 67 pounds. An
other swallowed within two days two

the hind quarters of the limbs of the
prey were visible. When flashlight

of half minute. a. Sokolowsky re.

IN BEDTIME HOURS
SHORT DISCOURSE ON PROPER
METHODS OF SLEEP.
Writer Declares the Human Race Does
Not Know How Properly to Woo
Natures Sweet Restorcr"-
Beware the Snorer.


Man is the only animal that sleeps
on its back. says the New York Press
Many animals sleep on their sides,
but most sleep prone that Is, face
down. Dogs never dream when prone.
but invariably do so when sleeping
on their side All of us from the
country have seen Bung, the hound,
chasing rabbits in his sleep. An ami
NAL would be perfectly helpless If 1T
slept on its back. And so Is man help
less in that position.
If some other fellow wants fortune
let him invent pillow that will allow
a man or woman or child to sleep face
down without having to twist the neck
nearly out of joint. We still style 1t
the "bcck.up cure" and introduce 1t in
all homes. There is no excuse for
lying on the back and keeping the
spine hot all night. while the front of
the body-the abdomen. the stomach.
the chest. the throat. etc.--is allowed
to become chilled. A hot spine IS a
disease generator. And, on the other
hand. cold spine Is death.
Snoring is an Internal nuisance to
every one except the snorer. People
who sleep on their fronts never snore.
variably do. The palate as we know
IL is the roof of the mouth and the
floor of the nose. Some style II the
hard palate. Back near the throat is
the soft palate. When you sleep on
your back this gets down about the
breathing apparatus ana you snore.
Some snores are worse than the mid
night howl of hyena. Never marry a
woman that snores Ask her before
you propose If she is addicted to snor
ing, and If she says yea" avoid her.
II Ia much easier to relax when
sleeping on your front than when
sleeping on your back. And what we
all need after touching the bed at
night Is relaxation. 1t is billion
pities that some scientist cannot teach
the art of relaxing. Our strenuous
life, of course, Is not blameless in this
matter. We go to bed in excitement,
and the nerves are strung all night.
L nat is 10 say, we 20 10 Deu Ill Iull
tune, like piano, and cannot possibly
let the strings down. Therefore we
do not rest. Could we relax we could
sleep four or five hours and arise re-
freshed: but as We cannot relax. we
groan and dream and sweat and roll
over and have remorse for eight or
nine hours, and get up with swelled
head
Every man and woman in this coun-
try was brought up with the notion
that If the feet were higher than the
head in sleeping all the blood would
rush to the head and cause strangula-
tion. This is the veriest rot. Ad-
vanced physicians now advocate the
elevated feet for the cure Of insomnia
Hang your legs over the footboard

like an infant. You are on your feet
all day and half the night. Stand on
your head the rest of the night and let
the blood circulate the other way.

A HON. Loving Bird.

Z Direct evidence OF the return Of the
same individual bird of a migrating
species to a particular, spot season
after season Is not easily obtainable,
but N. c. Beers believes that he has
such evidence concerning a chipping
sparrow at Lakewood, n. j., says the
Youths Companion. A few years ago
he heard "a little bird concealed In the
top Of maple uttei1ng a peculiar.
song which he could not recognize.
The next season he heard the same
peculiar song in tree but q few
yards from the original point. This
time he identified the bird, which
seemed to have learned song of It's
own. The third year he did not visit
Lakewood at the proper season TO
meet his little friend. but tho fourth
year he heard and saw It again near
the same spot. It!appeartd always to
make it's summer homo In the trees

extent.

II like all music" he said, except
such native and special sorts as the

hufaa give off.
Speaking of bagpipes. did you ever
notice how piper prances up and
down as he pipes? He never sits. he
never stands still, but up and down,
round and round, to and fro he struts
continually.
"A little boy, listening TO the weird
skirl OF the bagpipes of street per.
former, once said to his father:
Father, why does the piper keep
on the move all the time he plays?'

Sympathy Leans to Legs.

There is one appeal to charity that
is pretty sure to be answered." said a
philanthropist. THAT is a request for
an artificial leg. Legs. somehow, are
warmly appreciated by the general
public. and the fellow who has to
scrape along without one is the object
of sincere commiseration. During my
is years experience in philanthropic
work ! have issued appeals to the
people at large on behalf of persons
who wanted various parts of their an
atomy replaced. Some wanted teeth.
some an eye, others hook like Cap
tain Cuttle's. Physical deficiencies of
that kind aroused but little interest.
but just let man advertise the fact
that he was in need of a leg and
enough money was quickly forthcom-
ing to fit him out with three or four
pairs of legs"
