Needles.

Needles were undoubtedly the in
vention of prehistoric man, as they
have been discovered among the old
est remains of human life. Some
rude specimens made of horses
hone and evidently intended for
sewing S skins were found not long
since in a cave in France, together
with other traces of primitive life;
Needles have also been discovered
in the oldest Egyptian tombs and
among the remains of the lake
dwellings of Switzerland. The date
of the invention of steel needles is
unknown; but, judging from the
rich embroidered garments de-
scribed in ancient record, it would
appear that fine needles of steel
or some other material were in use
at very early period.

THE MODERN ACTOR.
A Stage Hand Compares Him With
the Stars Of the Past.

factors travel on their nerve SO
much nowadays it makes 'em think
they're nervous" said the old car
penter. "Why, | was with a show
that had to delay opening two
weeks because the star discovered a
fancy interior done in blue ard
gold. He said blue got on his
nerves. So we lost time while the
scene was painted over. Same way
with another-a woman star. She
wouldn't work because a parlor set
had panels decorated with peacocks.
Said she was picked one day by a
peacock, and even pictures Of ZEN
scared her.
"But you can bet that's done
mostly for advertising. They do
their acting for the press agents,
and the more hot air is wrote about
'em in the newspapers the better
actors they think they are.
used to be actors had to produce
the goods-and do it on real acting
too. They could act and talk so as
to make the audience think it was
balmy moonlight night, for in
stance, without a lot of electrical
stuff to help 'em out. There's often
more stage hands working realistic
effects nowadays than there are ac'
tors in the whole cast, and some
times what passes for a good show
would be just as interesting if there
was no actors in it"
"What is lacking in the modern
actor compared to the old schoolY
asked the student.
"Most of 'em amt got the back
bone to be good actors" replied the
old man. "Can you figure any Of
these dude society stars pulling of
fierce sword fights and struggles like
Mccullough or Forrest? No, sir
They amt. physically able And
that's what makes us sick when We
have to stand in the wings anC
listen to them fool the audience into
thinking what wonderful heroe:
they are" John S. Lopez in Har

How He Planned to Turn the TabIes
on His unsuspeetino Wife.


He looked at his watch, debated
with himself for a minute and then
said: "Go on with the game. I'll

'Iikely to be somebody sitting

"Sure to be-" was the reply.
Possibility that the party who is
sitting up will be mad clear

site.
'|Not only a possibility, but a GER
tainty," answered the man who had
looked at his watch, "and I don't
mind saying that if it was any other
night l wouldn't dare stay another
minute"
"What is there peculiar about to-
night" asked the dealer.

an envelope from his pocket and
held it up.

'No; bill" he answered. "Mil-

"Why, it's simple enough" re-
turned the man with the bill. Cant
you always find something to kick
about in a milliner's bill?"
They admitted that they usually
could.
"Well," he went on, "there's an
item for a hat here that's all right.
She told me she was going to get it
and what it would cost, but here's
another item of $4.3j for ribbons
and things that would give me a
chance to make my roar. Pll turn

"Well," he answered, chat will
put her on the defensive at the
start, and then I'll keep it up until
curtain lecture or any kind of a
sarcastic reference to the club is
about as far from her thoughts as
we are from the Philippines. Just

Japanese Advertising.

The japanese seem to get much
more out of a trademark than we
do. All Of the larger concerns have
a distinct mark, usually some geo.
metric design, with which every
thing in any way identified with the
COMPANY is plainly marked. nm
mediately upon reaching Japan Eu-
ropean tourists begin to study these
marks and after few days are able
to tell great deal about COM
merce and shipping simply by hay
ing learned the characteristic de-
signs of some OF the larger compa-
MES. Even in the Chinese ports
many japanese goods are known by
these marks by the most lillterate
coolies, who could not pretend to
read an advertisement.

Because Blood Is Red.

"How often we hear the phrase,
Like waving a red rag before
bullr" says a naturalist. "Yet how
many people know what it means?
"Why should a bull or any other
creature be enraged when a piece
of scarlet cloth is Haunted before
it? For bulls are not alone IN
this. Sheep, usually so meek and
gentle, will apparently become trans
ported with rage if they see any
thing of this color. Geese and tur-
keys are similarly affected, the for
mer even having been known to at
tack a scarlet clad child.
"But why? Well, the excitement
animals display in such circum-
stances is similar to that caused by
the smell of blood. Here is my the
