BREAKING the New.

The matrimonial failure of Pat, a
bartender in the center Of the city, has
been common knowledge for some
time, and it has also been no secret
that Pat really does not blame his
wife for her Impotence with his hab-
Its. Pat is in dead earnest when he
says that his wife really Is too good
for him and deserves a divorce, which
the self abasing Pat would gladly
grant her if it wasn't SO expensive.
The good faith of Pat in this respect
was, however, never more forcibly IL
Illustrated than during the severe at
tack of pneumonia from which he has
just recovered. "Pat, the doctors say
you are very SICK" said his wife dur
ing her visit to the hospital one day,
What do they really say? You can't
hurt me BY telling the truth" answer.
ed Pat. "Well, Pat. they say that you
cannot iive," whispered the wife, final
~ yielding to Pats insistent demand
for the truth. Don't you believe it
Doctors make a habit holding out
hopes to the last" drawled Pat in his
wearisome style. ''They are only
breaking the news to you gently.

"Why, you see. was in the war while

Glen was barely eighteen then and
boyish looking even for his years. He

back him. "Whaty' exclaimed the
president. "You were In the war;

coldly, and delivered his note. The
secretary read it and asked, ado you

Underdoggism does not arise wholly

A LEAP TO FAME.
The Story Of Stuffed Cat In the
Smithsonian Institution.


In the Smithsonian institution at
Washington is case containing a
stuffed cat. A card attached to the
case. setting forth the reasons why
this particular feline is known to fame.
gives official sanction to tale that is
In every respect as remarkable as any
emanating from the nature fakirs
The story of the cat is as follows:
Many years ago, while the Washing
ton monument was still in an unfin-
ished condition. an adventurous and
patriotic cat assembled the interior of
the shaft by means of the ropes and
scaffolding. When the workmen ar
rived at the upper landing the next
morning and began to prepare for the
days work the cat took fright and,
springing to the outer edge, took the
leap Of over 500 feet to the hard earth
below.
In the descent, which was watched
closely by the workmen. the cat spread
herself out like a flying squirrel, fell
slowly and alighted, as cats always do,
on all fours. After turning over on the
soil few times as II dazed she pre-.

being derived from the Bohemian word
"pulka, meaning half, and refers to
the half step which occurs in this
