Handy Man Worked at II Sundays,
but Forgot to Measure the
Stairway.

He is the meat man in a street
grocery. Besides being handy at trim
ming spare ribs with safety razor
he is also an adept with carpenter
tools. About a year ago he decided
to build kitchen cabinet for his wife.
He chose the basement as the place
of construction. ordered lot Of lum-
ber and other accessories and went to
work.
The only time he had to give to the
kitchen cabinet cause was on Sunday.
as he had to work early and late dur,
ing the week. He closed all basement
windows tightly in order to muffle all
the noise he made with saws and ham
mers. He even had a set Of signals
arranged with his wife that she was
to stssSIp os the floor when the min
isfer 81 some pious friend was pass
ing Sunday after Sunday he toiled
away on the kitchen cabinet. picturins
in his mind how pretty and how use
full it would be Ia the kitchen.
Finally the cabinet was finished and
the builder asked two or three OF
the boys at the store to drop over on
Sunday morning and help him carry
1t upstairs. The boys, anxious to see
the product of so many days of toll,
accepted the invitation and went over.

came to thousands of his comrades.
the call of the West came to him, and
at last he yielded. and drifted toward
the frontier The life there fascinar-
ed him, drawing him deeper and deep-
er into its swirling vortex. He be-
came freighter. mail carrier, hunter,
government scout, cowboy, foreman.
Once he had drifted into the noun
tains. and took chance in the mines,
but the wide plains called him back
once more to their desert loneliness.
What an utter waste it all seemed,
now that he looked back upon 1t.
Eight years of fighting. hardship and
rough living. and what had they
brought him? The reputation of
hard rider. a daring player at cards,
q quick shot. a scorner of danger, and
a bad man to fool with-that was the
whole Of record hardly won. The
mans eyes hardened, his lips set firm
ly, as this truth came crushing home.
A pretty life story surely. one to be
proud of. and with probably no better
ending than an Indian bullet. or the
fash Of a revolver in some barroom
fight.
The narrow valley along which he
was travelling suddenly changed its
direction. compelling him to climb the
rise of the ridge. Slightly below the
summit he halted. In front extended
the wide expanse of the Arkansas
valley, a scene of -splendor under the
golden rays of the sun, with vivid
contrast of colors, the gray Of rocks
the yellow of sand, the brown of dis
tant hills, the green of vegetation
and the silver sheen of the stream
half hidden behind the fringe of cot
tonwoods lining it's banks. This was
a sight Keith had often looked upon.
but always with appreciation. and for
the moment his eyes swept across
from bluff to bluff without thought
except for it's wild beauty. Then he

Built a Kitchen Cabinet

1t was Jim Dandy kitchen cabinet.
1t was the best ever-even better than
the store kind.
We'll. boys. let's hike upstairs with
it," said Fritz. the cabinet constructor.
The boys took hold. tilted it and
started for the stairway. Fritz groaned.
The boys smothered a laugh.
1t was nine inches too wide for the
stairway.
The cabinet has departed this life
via the furnace. 1t is unlikely that
Fritz will build another.

japan Made "HamIet" Up to Data


SSa7e strange liberties are taken
with Shakespeare on the japanese
stage. The Kobe Herald recently de-
scribed a performance in that town OF
"HaSnlet." with the scene laid in mod.
era Japan. The prince appears first In
a silk hat and a swallow-tail coat, then
on a bicycls. clad in bright blue
cycling suit and striped stockings, and
then in evening dress again, with
flower in his button-hole. This up-to
date collegian has little more resem.
blance to the Hamlet whom Shake
speare conceived than a Jew of the
modern johannesburg type would bear
to the Shylock of ancient Venice.
Ophelia, for the purpose of the play, is
transformed into fellow student of
Hamlet at the Imperial University of
Tokyo.
