SHORT
SHAVINCS

Sol Salberg took home a package
of a new tangled mustard plaster
that looks like cheese, the other
day, and thoughtlessly left it on the
kitchen table. An hour or two later
there was very sick domestic in
the Salberg household. A doctor
was summoned, but the case both
cred him a little.
Been eating anything unusual ?"
he asked the girl.
Nothing but spoonful of that
new kind of cheese Mr.. Salberg
brought home" she said.
The cheese" was examined, and
the mystery solved. An antidote
was not difficult to find.
Watches that will not run are
often spoken to unldndly.
But something worse than that
happened to balky timepiece on
Riverside avenue the other day. A
man halted in front of the Palsen
building, pulled out a fine looking
watch, opened it, said naughty
word and then flung the watch ON
the sidewalk with great force.
Springs, wheels, jewels and other
things flew in every direction.
The clatter attracted a crowd of
men and boys, and there was a
scramble for the broken pieces. But
the man who had taken revenge on
the watch that refused to run
moved on unconcerned.
Grocers report an astonishing in
crease in the demand for honey
since the price of butter has fol-
lowed the COW that jumped over the
moon.
I'VE have big demand for honey
now" said one retail dealer. I'VE
never sold so much before. It's the
high price of butter that is respon-
sible.
You see, you can buy pure honey
for Is cents a pound. and the best
grades are only quarter. With
butter soaring so high, many house
wives find it good domestic econ
omy to seek something in it's place.
Nearly all children like honey. and
doctors recommend it as a healthful
addition to their diet"
A woman guest at local hotel
raised an awful fuss the other day
and declared she not only would not
pay her bill, but would sue the
house if glove was not returned
to her. Some waiter. chambermaid
or bell boy had stolen it, she de-
clared, and she wanted the culprit
dragged before her at once.
Sure you lost it," asked the man.
ager
Sure lost it," shrieked the
woman. ."Of course I'm sure lost
It. See"-holding up a loose glove
there's only one glove"
What's that on your right
hand?"
"Why-why that's the other one,
of course. 7 didn't notice it. Isn't
that funny?'-and she laughed
merrily.

been issued thus far for the vio-
Eaters of the Sunday law, all but
two or three pleading guilty to
the charge and paying the small

asked be imposed on the law
breakers.
1t is understood that the Retail
Grocers' association is back of the
fight to compel the observance of
the state law, with the concerns
in the association or combine de-
termined to put an end to the sale
of goods on Sunday by their small
err competitors.
Four more grocers pleaded guilty
to the charge of selling merchan-
disc on Sunday and were fined 81
each and $500 costs by Justice
Samuel Hyde yesterday. The
men fined were F. z. Robinson of
&c Third avenue, Peter Domick of
1922 Front avenue, Reisa Dimick of
416 Front avenue and Joe Ressa of
226 Stevens street.
M. NJ. Lawler secured the evil
dence against these men, purchas-
ing canned goods of various kinds
from the small storekeepers.
