Literary Notes.

Books are booming again. One OF
the six best cellars this season Is the
cyclone cellar. We print this joke just
to get II out Of the way.
A popular cereal in Scotland this
year. for which there is even greater
demand than for the works Of Barrie
or Stevenson, is oatmeal. Our reason
for printing this joke is the same as
above.
A story that has attracted much at
tention among visitors to the metrop'
oils Is the top story of the Flatiron
building. 1t is lofty in character and
exceedingly breezy. We don't know
why we have printed this joke. but
here II Is.
II you are looking for book that Is
full of live characters. all of them In
tensely human and thoroughly of to-
day, you will find the telephone book
contains all that yon seek, although
some readers prefer the current edi
tion OF the city directory. This isn't q
joke. but solid fact.--John Kendricl

in the music room when young lady

As she was about to pass the plano

sing. | was some distance away, but
! saw her lay the package on top of
the instrument. After n moment my
lord came in and stood Mt her side a
moment TO compliment her. During
this interval ! saw him pocket the
package. There were eleven other
passengers In the room. but II any one
else saw what did he kept silent for
the same reason.
BY and by the young lady left the
piano. looked for her package and.
finding 1t gone. ran back to her state
room. Within ten minutes there was
au outcry. In the midst of 1t 1t was
suggested that each and every passen-
ger go on deck and remain there until
his baggage was searched. The cap
gage of my lord. TO say nothing OF
others. would cost him his place. There
was Just one more robbery. as mys-
terious as the others. before we
reached Cape Town. There my lord left
us and II was understood that 1t was
because of the robberles. We had no
more of them during the remainder OF
the voyage and believe that most OF
the passengers were prepared to hear
two months later that the Lord Mon
son Of the Bonny Castle was one OF
the sllckest criminals In England and
had played us off for lot OF fools aud

hinted on shlpboard that had seen
him take the package and believed
that he was the thief the captain
would have had me in double irons
within ten minutes. The real Lord
Monson was on visit home at the
time. aud this man had had the nerve
to assume his identity and boldly take
passage. and the trick worked TO per
fection. No doubt some Of the rob.
berries were committed by the two
thieves who passed as his servants.
