a good hearty laugh that lasted two
and a half hours. Mr.. Taylor as Cap1
Racket, created a lot of racket as the

of Timothy Tolman, was slow ii
speech but fast in producing laugh !.
Mr.. Bertram as Uncle Obadiah was
exceptionally clever. Mr. Bayless
made lots out of a thankless part.
Miss Daniels as Clarice was very
charming. She gave an excellent
portrayal of young, mischievous
wife. Miss Royal, the henpecked and
better half of poor Tim,' was as
finished and perfect in this role as
she is in all of her parts. Miss
Beal made very sweet and charm

A lion comes at it's enemy at full
speed, galloping low, and dashes a
man standing upright to the ground by
the full impact Of it's body. Major In
verar1ty states that 1.-The claws and
teeth entering the flesh, do not hurt as
much as you would think" but that
the squeeze given by the jaws on the
bone is really painful. When knocked
over he was still keenly conscious and
felt none Of the dreamy sensations ex-
perienced by Livingstone.
Major Swaine, struck down by a
lioness going full gallop. was uncon-
sc1ous for some minutes and did not
know what had happened till he found
himself standing up after the accident.
II felt no PAIN" he writes, mot, 1 be-
lieve, owing to any special interposi-
ton Of Providence, but simply that the
shock and loss Of blood made me in
capable of feeling it. There was no
pain for few days till it was brought
on by the swelling Of my arm on the
twelve days ride to the coast."-Lon-

Something Hotel Clerks Reno>n,her

something Hotel Clerks Remember.
There's lots less danger of the
night clerk forgetting an early call
left by some guest than most travellers
imagine" remarked hotel manager
the other day. The fact u.s." be de-
clared, 1.-The average night clerk could
not forget one of those early calls If he
wanted to. You know. it's a mighty
lonesome job the night clerk has
There is little for him to do. few ar
rivals to take care OF and little to
break the monotony of his long vigil.
About the only fun the night clerk
has is those early morning calls. When
l was night clerk | used to count
the hours until could start in on
those early calls. There was nothing
else to do or think about, and it would
keep going through my mind what fun
1t would be to make some guest share
my forlorn state by getting him out of
his warm bed all sleepy eyed. l could
not any more have overlooked one of
those early calls than l could have
overlooked my breakfast when the
time came. "-Cleveland Plain Dealer.
