conspicuous out on that simmering ex-
panse of asphalt and 1 started to the
rescue. l didn't know what was the
matter, but it did seem that when a
lady stopped and did fancy steps in
the hottest spot in Washington it was
plain hurry up call of some sort.
"As l hotfooted it to the rescue
and you can bet it was hotfooting all
right, all right!-I spied the young
woman's shoe sitting up all by itself
and looking like empty is the cradle
baby's gone.
Il thought it was just a case of a
dropped pump, and was going to hike
back to the shade, where the Their
mometer was below hundred at any
rate, when the girl made dab at her
shoe with her stockinged foot and
then began to do more fancy steps.
What do you suppose was the mat
ter? Give it up? Well, the asphalt
was so hot that it was about like
boiled down molasses candy for stick
mess. The high heel of the girls shoe
had gone through the crust and there
it stuck.
Shed slip her foot into the shoe
and try to lift it out that way; but nay,
nay, Pauline, the asphalt just boiled
down little tighter. Finally she took
hold with both hands and gave that
shoe a yank which fetched it: but it
never faxed the grip the asphalt had.
She got her shoe, but the heel stayed
behind, and she went off with three.
inch limp that was heartrending.
That's what mean by losing your
heels over the heat. l was telling a
Washington man about the shoe Incl
dent, and he said pshaw! that was
nothing.
"He said that few years ago folks
Gown there got to talking about the
facilities for enjoying a hot time in
Washington, and just to show what
could be done somebody fried eggs on
one of the iron plates that abound
along the electric car tracks.
Il believe it took half an hour to
finish the frying, but from my expert
ence should say that if that was true
the man wanted his eggs fried on both
sides and very hard.
Il think that man had q well-store0
memory anyway. He was telling how
damp it gets in Washington some
times, and he said that he knew a lady
who once shut up her apartment for
the summer and when she came back
she found mushrooms growing in one
Of the cupboards."
Down cellar, 1 suppose"
Say, you make me think of an old
woman who used to delight in telling
me what an awful poor success her
son was at farming. You know it
strikes me that this supposing bust
ness can't really be your strong point.
When you talk about down cellar, for
instance"
"Oh, we'll; the basement them"
Basement nothing! 1t was on the
sixth floor Mushrooms in the cup
board and long flowing whiskers on
the gas tube for the drop light in the
dining-room. Sure. Whiskers of mold
two or three inches long.
But the mushrooms were What
caught my fancy. Those and the fried
eggs. If was going to try your favor
lite stunt of supposing, would suppose
that climate which would fry eggs in
the sun and would grow whiskers on
the gas tubes and mushrooms in the
cupboards was sure enough wonder.
And guess you'll have to sit up nights
and do a whole lot of overtime sup
posing before you'll beat that for hit
ting the nail on the head"

The Photograph and the Parrot.

The Photograph and the Parrot.
The training Of parrots has been
greatly aided by the introduction of
the photograph, the instrument now
being used to repeat a given phrase
for hours each day to a roomful of
the noisy croakers until they have
mastered it. The various kinds of
birds require various methods of train
ing; the bird experts develop special
ties and win fame in their exclusive
fields for their accomplishments. Fl.
nally, the whole immigration of 40O,.
900 is disposed of and distributed
throughout the country, and the cycle
is begun for another year that will
bring something to the unitarian who
raises practical fowls for the market,
and more to the sportsman who seeks
game to shoot.

Forerunnesr Of Roulette Wheel.

In all probability the roulette wheel
as we moderns know it came from
Japan. Ages ago the Japanese attained
to higher degree of mechanical piety
than Papist or Protestant ever dreamed
of; they had praying wheel which
was marked off in sections, each sec.
ton containing printed prayer. When
penitent spun the wheel a ratchet
brought it to a gradual stop, and
there was ready-made prayer for
him. Every time he turned the wheel
good mark was made for him in
heaven.-N. Y. Press.

.ToIstoi's "simplicity."

Tolstoi's wife, who watches over
him as tenderly as if he had never
declared marriage to be vile, sees to 1t
that he is not deprived of creature
comforts. Under his shaggy outer
clothing he wears the finest linen.
Though his food be simple, it is Of
the best, and is cooked with all the
skill of a Partisan chef. Because of
his old age he does not detect the
kindly imposition that is practiced on
him.
