Why Bill Was Umpire.
From Tit-Bifs.


A cricket match was being played in a
meadow adjacent to Farmer Cowstick's
orchard and the worthy agriculturist was
at the wicket.
There had been great difficulty about an
umpire for this match and when boy from
the local school for young gentlemen vol
unteered to act he was gladly accepted.
Presently, to all appearances, the farmer
was run out, but the umpire said no; and in
the next over he was obviously stumped, but
still the decision was in his favor, much to
the wicket keepers disgust Then, when
the farmer had compiled over fifty runs, he
was palpably "leg before"
lows that?" called the bowler.
The youthful umpire hesitated over his
decision, and looked uncomfortable. with q
nervous glance over his shoulder in the
direction Of the orchard.
Then juvenile voice hurtled across the
meadow from the direction of the lane:
''You can give the old cock out now,
Billy-weve got all the plums We want"
The farmer didn't wait for the official de-
cision. nor did the umpire stay to give 1t.

High Wages in Africa.
From Appleton,s Margarine.


I had never got an African elephant or a
hippopotamus or a rhinoceros, and I
wanted to try. There is the whole story.
This brought me about the middle of last
October by ship to Zanzibar. and thence by
another vessel some six hours to the north
ward on the east coast of Africa to a town
called Mombasa, the southernmost seaport
of British East Africa and the beginning
of the Uganda railway 1t seemed neces-
sary to gather together for the outfit about
thirty men. native blacks of all grades
various colors and marvellous types-por-
tiers who carried daily on their heads sixty
pounds of my own luggage and whatever
each needed for himself besides and
dressed in the most remarkable costumes
it has been my fortune to They will
walk from fifteen to twenty miles a day,
up hill and down, through jungle and over
open flats, with as little trouble as I would
walk down 5th avenue. And In recon-
men get II cents per day and one and
half pounds of rice for the comfort of their
insides.
There were porters a personal servant,
a cook, gun bearers and a headman. The
latter held the whole motley crew in the
hollow of his hand, and ran them and me,
and cheated us both with q frlnkness and
that was too genial to be ir-
ritating. He stole and sold m5 aluminium
cooking outfit that was the apple Of my
eye, and never SO much gave me a COM
mission.

From the Outing Magazine.
There is a good deal of simplicity about
the game OF racquets. but it is so fast that
one has to move into position rapidly. hit
rapidly and recover rapidly. The move
ments of player must be almost instinc-
tive. This is the reason why those who
learn the game very young have better
prospects. The greatest mistake OF men
who take up racquets in this country IS
that they often learn bad form at the start
which only the most careful practice will
enable them to ever overcome. AS O matter
OF fact, good many OF our players do
not care to take the time for such prac-
tice Bad foot work and a poor wrist are
the cause of the downfall OF nearly all OF
our second and third-class players. Plenty
of men. physically well-equipped for the
most strenuous racquets, Will peg along FOR
years, and never learn the game properly
simply because they began badly, and
either have never taken the trouble. or do
not know how to correct their faults.

London's Perils.

Lady Violet Greville. in London Graphic.
To elderly timid people London is no
longer a pleasant place of residence. The
streets have become a labyrinth Of horror
and difficulty. a region OF hideous sounds
and foul smells. With motor buses top
ping over on the sidewalk. and private
motors knocking down lampposts and inn
pinging on the shelters, the unfortunate
citizen knows not whittier to wend his
trembling steps.
