A Ghost In a Clock.

Basingstoke provides remarkable
story Of ghost in the form Of clock.
At the approach Of midnight each
night the otherwise peaceful grand
father" becomes inhabited by a spook.
The ticking changes into deep and
peculiar humping, the clock increases
in stature. while pair Of gray feet
protrude from beneath it's base. Pass
ing through transitional stages the
humping is replaced by a spasmodic
breathing, and upon the stroke OF y
the pendulum door opens, revealing an
enormous ashy gray hand with mal-
shaped fingers. The clock face dis
appears, displaying a frightful gray
head, large and round, with abnormal
" long, pale blue eyes. Beyond a
quiet stroll, which causes weird tap
pings along the landings during the
night, the apparition is inoffensive and
is said to prove of great service in
sending every one early to bed.-Lon-
don Tit-Bits.

Eishinc Snakes.

While fishing in the Fort st. George
moat. at Madras. correspondent Of
Country Life saw snake fifteen
inches long come out Of the water
with fish in its mouth. On catching
sight Of the writer it dropped the fish
and bolted. leaving the fish on the
bank alive. On another occasion.
while fishing in reservoir near Cha
Ziahad. he again saw snake emerg-
inc frcn the water with fish in its
mcuth. This snake was about twenty
four inches long, and on killing it he
was able TO Identify the fish as COM
mon speciss Of Indian fresh water fish.
Later on be saw viper, nearly four
feet long. lying in shallow water. The
writer hooked it ashore with his
tackle. upon which the snake attacked
him, leaving large yellow fang In
his fishing rod.

Natures Armor.

Lobsters and crabs are familiar ex-
amples Of armor bearing creatures.
The Holsters have wonderful coats Of
mali suggestive Of those devised by
human warriors in the age of chiv-
airy. They combine perfect security
with ease of movement, owing to their
jointed structure. The manner in
which crabs when at rest tuck their
legs beneath them so as to bring them
under the shelter of the hard carapace
is. interesting. The crab is dOubly pro-
tected, for it resembles water worn
pebble, and thus looks to large. fishes
which like to eat the crustacean-so
long as it keeps still-very similar to
the objects with which it is sur
rounded.

They Were Started by 3. r. keIrn IN

II was in the month of January, 1888,
that MIR. B. F. Keith, who had been
studying the show business with far-
seeing eyes for many years, presented,
in a store that he had leased In Bos-
ton. the first continuous show ever
seen on any stage. he paid his per-
formers $50 week for g single turn
and $40 for double and required them
to give eight or nine turns a day. His
'stop liner" or chief attraction was
pound and q half baby. The doors OF
his playhouse we're thrown open at
noon. and from that time until half
past 10 at night the performance went
on without interruption.
Patrons were allowed to spend the
entire day in the theater. and at first
so many availed themselves OF this op-
portunity to get substantial filling OF
amusement at small cost that Mr.
Keith realized that he must either
abandon the idea Of continuous en-
tertainment or else invent some meth
cd by which the audience coatd DC
driven out of the building and place
made for those outside who were wait
inc for admittance. Necessity is the
mother of invention. especially when
it is mated with sharp Yankee Wit. and

A Signal That Brought the Busy
Walters In Body.
To get waiter quickly in big cafe
is at times very difficult, but a Ger
mantoWn man recently~learned meth
cd from a New York friend which Is
guaranteed instantly to bring not one
but several walters. This Germantown
man was giving d dinner In one or
Philadelphia's swellest cafes, with the
New Yorker and two women as his
guests. After a long delay a waiter
came and took the order. Then one OF
the women decided that she must make
a change in her order. The host Sig
nailed one waiter after another without
avail. After about ten minutes Of Vio--
lent gesticulating on his part the New
Yorker said:
"You don't know how to attract their
attention. I'll bet you SIS lean bring
a waiter to this table within thirty
seconds"
."Ill take the bet," said the Philadel-
phian, drawing out his watch. The
New Yorker reached over into the
middle Of the table, picked up thin,
delicate glass and deliberately dashed
it to the floor. Instantly every waiter
in the room came rushing up to see
what was the trouble.
"Charge one tumbler up on the bill"
said the New Yorker laconically, "and
change one Of those oyster orders to

Cuttinq the Finger Nails.

Cutting the finger nails appears to
have been the most indispensable serv-
ice the ancient Roman barber rendered
to his patrons. Martial, chatting a
fop who had tried to dodge the barber
by using plasters to remove his beard
asks triumphantly, How are you 60
ing to manage about your nails? And
the miser in Plautus collects the par
ings Of his nails from the barber to
make something out of them, appar-
emily never dreaming that he could
save money by cutting them himself.

DO HEARTS BREAK?
Human Nature the Same Despite Mod
ern improvements.

Human Nature the Same Despite Mod
ern Improvements.
Broken hearts, so the Br tish Jour-
nal of Nursing tells US, are quite out
Of fashion. The disease has become
obsolete, and two reasons are assigned
for this In the first place, we are told
that women do not fall in love as once
they did. Mere children are not en-
couraged to think on love and matri-
mony, and then women. having come
to ripper years and scunder Judgment
before they decide to marry, do not
let themselves fall into that state
which was supposed to produce cardiac
rupture.
One ventures to express The opinion
that the statement is not altogether
accurate.
Human nature does not alter from
one generation to another. People
"fell in love- thousand years ago; Il
thousand years hence they will be do
ing the same But they wore their
rue with a difference; so will those
who are to succeed US. The fact is
we do not now wear our hearts on our
sleeves, and we have learned that if
lovers prove untrue or unworthy there
are better and more dignifed ways Of
lamenting them than souring our tenn
pers, wasting away and allowing or
friends and relations to treat us as
derelicts.
