A certain physician sat in a box at
the theater the other night. 1t hap

take his seat in that particular box.

to the theater.
"Am / intruding?" he inquired ever
so politely of the doctor. "Have you
this section engaged all for yourself?"

The Crow That wears . = GERS Cap
The following clever way Of keeping
crows away from a graIndeid Is used
by the farmer Of Holland: He makes
some small caps Of stout paper and
smears around the inner sids OF the
mouth Of each some birdlime or other
sticky stuff. In these he puts some
grains of corn and stands them about
bis fields by pressing their points into
soft earth. When the crow finds one
of these paper caps he thinks himself
in great luck until he attempts to peck
at the tempting grain. when. to bis
establishment. he finds the cap attach
ed to his head-a regular fools cap
which will not even allow him to see
what course to take IL he flies up.
However. he succeeds In reaching
some coarse grass or bushes and after
much bewildered scrambling and flop
ping about gets his head out OF this
undesirable cap and ever afterward
avoids the field where there are more

Wagner a Living Paradox.

AS an artist Wagner had unequaled

temperate and virtuous to an unusual
degree, he also had extraordinary
faults. He was egotistical and proud.
prone to fierce enmities; he went to
extremes In everything. A living par
adox; impatient. irritable and nervous:
noble and petty; never made a man
more friends and more enemies. He
was worshiped and hated Taken all

afternoon says the Pope passed a
bad night and that his condition to-
day is anything but reassuring.

attendance DR. Marchiafava calls

Attention is being drawn to a
remarkable fact in connection with
the Pope's life. About nineteen
years ago, while he was Bishop of
Mantau. he remarked to a friend:
