Both men are amateur, aviators, but

cess during the past year. They have
produced several notable inventions
in various appliances connected with
biplanes and monoplanes.
Formerly the chief obstacle met
with by pilots of the air has been the
problem Of providing room for enough
gasoline to carry q machine a long

will endeavor to solve in his new ma
chine. If his experiments prove sue
cessful he will carry enough gasoline
to enable him to sail a distance of
60 or 20 miles.

DIFFERENT MEN NEED
DIFFERENT METHODS

Every man in charge Of ball team
has his own ideas of how the game
should be played, though all of them
virtually have the same plays. 1t has
been years since any team sprung
anything new on its opponents, and
yet there is great difference in man
ayers. Examine any one of the six
teen men in charge of the major
league clubs and every one of them
would impress you with the fact that
he is thoroughly up on the game, and
yet more prove failures than success
full. OF course. the material on hands
cuts decided figure. but there is
also something more than this. Take
the case of the Detroit team. 1t was
team with strength enough to win
pennants before Jennings took hold.
but he made it win. Jennings is not
a wizard. He used the same plays
that wehe in vogue under his predeces-
sors. He installed nothing new in
that respect, but he put spirit into his
players.
1t is the faculty of knowing the diff
ferent dispositions of the members
of ball team which is most essential
in manager. Where one player
needs to be patted on the back to do
his best the other has to be driven.
1t is. therefore. easily seen what
would happen if the manager decided
between such players,

MOON WAS UNDER A CLOUD.
An Incident of the Theater In the
Earlier Days.

An Incident OF the fheateF In the
Earlier Days.
Early in the season of 1867,
said j. M. Barron, the veteran actor,
we were in Petersburg. Va, at old
Phoenix hall. The business was such
that nightly long rows of nile green
seats could be seen from the stage.
In those good old times the utility
people did not get more than 5000 a
week. The leading people received due
bills on the next good house. We had
in the utility contingent Ute named
Moon, and bright Moon he was, but
he was so lazy his shadow would not
follow him. He was often late. The
star was Charles Couldock. and those
old timers who can yet sit up on an
even keel may remember that G. G.
could do cuss poetry in four colors
when riled, even if 1t were not in
his contract.
We were rehearsing 1.-THE Willow
Copse," and Moons cue came, but no
Moon shone up. The call boy started
with shout, ssMr. Moonr'
The prompter called, Mr.. Moonr'
Three Utes away up stage Joined in,
''Mr. Moon, this is you; stage is wait
ing"
No Moon.
Couldock began to pace from tor.
menter doors to L. e. No Moon.
Finally Couldock bawled out:
'sWhere is that Moon-that utility
idiot? Always late and doesn't know
his cues when he hears them"
No Moon vet. 1t appeared that Mis-
tress Moon had presented the old man
with fine daughter-a new Moon.
The father Moon went out to cele-
brate with the boys and later on was
wheelbarrowed home a full Moon

In the uncertain illumination Of the

in breezy. fluffy gowns and fetching
mantillas. and they knew it pretty
well too, They like to have you look
at them directly and admiringly, and
they win not drop their eyes.

a look of this kind-such look as
would be considered extremely rude
in any American city-the chances are
when you meet her on the next turn
you will be rewarded with smile and
challenge from the black eyes, and
If you have a sufficient stock Of nerve
In reserve you win speak to her and
pay her some mplimentary remark
upon the first opportunity that offers.
This As good breeding and win not be
resented.
Should you then become infatuated
with the lady you will search out her
home. visit her barred window and
nope under it for an hour or two
every morning, and if you impress her
favorably she will make your heart
glad BY talking with you through the
bars or dropping little scented notes
to you.
Should you become real serious you
will hire a stringed band to serenade
her at night now and then. To con-
form with the custom you should start
your baud out at midnight and let it
play as long as your money lasts.-Out-

cosTERMoNGER.

The Word In Former Times Was
Spelled "costard- monger.1
The word costermonger is now used
of an itinerant fruit seller. It was
formerly spelled, costard-monger and
lin this form appears in Drant's 'Hor-
ace" to translate the Latin word
''pomarius."
Literally it means costard seller, cos
tard being kind Of apple. the name
Of which Murray connects with coste,
a rib.
Some etymologists connect it with
custard, assuming that the pulp Of ap-
Piles was used in preparing this deli
cacy, but there is no real reason for
this. since the ''custard apple" men
toned in Dampier's Voyages" Q699),
is quite different fruit from the mid
die English costard.
Some connect it also with s'costard, -
the humorous name for head flake
him over the costard with the hflt Of
thy sword" (Shakespearel But it seems
more probable that the head was
called after the apple than the apple
after the head.
The termination ''monger'' simply
means a dealer or trader. as in fell
monger and ironmonger. and is de-
rived from the Anglo-Saxon word
''mangian,' to traffic or barter, which

ONE OYSTER ENOUGH.
He cwaIIowed 1t Alive and Had to Kill
It After It Was Down.


It After It Was Down.
A farm laborer from the interior on
his first visit to London dropped into
small oyster shop where number
of men were eating raw oysters. The
extreme satisfaction displayed on the
faces of those about him created long
ings of gustatory nature in the new
arrival, who edged his way up to the
counter in anticipation of eating a
real live, juicy oyster.
1t was the first time he had seen an
oyster, and he became at once inter
ested, and when the shellfish had been
finally uncased he proceeded to bal
ance it on the end Of his fork, then,
with look of extreme satisfaction,
gulped it down.
"Great Scott?' shouted man stand
ing near him. You haven't swallowed
the oyster alive, have your"
There was horrible pause.
"That critter will eat right through
your shouted another.
BY this time the poor countryman
was shaking with fear and horror. He
commenced to have terrible pains in
his abdomen and was soon doubled up
in his agony. He begged some one to
go for doctor to get the thing out.
He continued to grow worse, when
some one suggested that he take a
dSse of tabasco sauce, which it was
claimed would kill the object that
was creating such terrible commotion
in his internal arrangement.
He grasped the bottle with avidity
and took draft. His condition, which
before had been alarming to the vic
tim, now assumed serious phase to
the perpetrators of the hoax.
The man gasped and choked. He
became black in the face, and tears
were running down his face, when
some one thrust a bottle of oil into
his mouth, and he was forced to drink
copious drafts.
The effect was magical. The oyster
was evidently dead" He became
more composed, and when he finall,
recovered his breath he said:
