A certain well known composer now
In the full vigor of his established rep
utation was at one time when he was
comparatively unknown engaged In
writing the music for a production ia
thered by two managers who knew
exactly what they wanted, in addition
to knowing next to nothing of the mu-
steal classics. After having burned
much midnight oil and worked himself
into a state Of semicollapse in a vain
endeavor to produce a finale which
would please them the composer tore
up page after page Of rejected manu-
script and in despair took to the the.

which he had somehow managed to
at the words assigned to him. He
played it over, and one of the mana
gers said quite unfeelingly, well, Gus

one is the rottenest of them ALL" "SoY

"Hot in Brazilf" said the young man
who had just returned from trip
to South America. "Well, l should
say SO. Do you know, for days at
time we couldn't take our after dinner
siesta on account of the peculiar
noises"
"What noisesT asked the blond ste.

why, the coffee popping on the
trees. You see, the sun was so hot
the grains just roasted before they
were picked"
The old traveller yawned.
Rather warm down there, bub," he
rejoined laconically, "but when was
down there you couldn't sleep OF night.
Every once In awhile there would
sound the most extraordinary crack
ling noise that ever fell upon the hui
man ear"
"What were the sounds, Mr.. Bings"
And Mr.. Bings yawned again and
replied, "The rubber trees stretching
themselves" -Chicago News.

who had been reading about one in the

paying visit to the Rockies, and their
last stopping place had been Cheyenne.
Coming east they had fallen In with
some Americans who made themselves

After they had put their names on

Royal Porquisites.

The king has many privileges which
he never exercises. He enjoys an i'm
memorial right to all gold and silver
mines, not only on his own land, but
upon any Of his subjects lands within
his dominions. So shareholders In
Rand and Westralian mines would
have to forego their dividends If the
king felt avariciously disposed. The
king is also entitled to a yearly tribute
from his tailor, consisting Of a pair Of
white doves, pound Of cummin seed,
a pair of scarlet hose and a silver
needle
All surgeons and whales caught In
British waters are royal perquisites.
The whale has a split liability. Its
tail belongs to the queen, while its
head goes to the king. II is generally
assumed that the partition was decid-
ed upon in order that the queen should
always be supplied with whalebone,
but II so the founder of this act Of
benehcence committed the mistake of
giving the queen the wrong half

Where ons,s Breath Ealls a.


Verkhoiansk, small village in the
northeast of Siberia, is the coolest
place in the world. 1t is a convict
station. No precautions against es-
cape are needed. for Verkhoiansk is
guarded by the wind Though the
average temperature of the three
worst winter months is IS degrees Of
frost, intense cold like this is easy to
bear In calm weather. But n strong
breeze at that temperature or within
20 degrees Of it will kill every living
thing not under shelter. In the icy
cold Of Verkhoiansk an iron ak head
dropped on the ground smashes like
glass. A board Of unseasoned wood,
on the other hand, freezes as hard as
steel. Frozen nicotine blocks the
stem Of tobacco pipes, while ones
breath falls at ones feet in n fine
white powder.
