One Cure for Sarcasm.

Bunsen always was sarcastic.
One evening last week when he got
home his wife had a new hat to show
him. 1t was some hat. Anybody
could have seen that it was the final
phrase In female headgear.
But Bunsen started to make re-
marks. He said 1t looked as if 1t had
been trimmed by a cross-eyed milliner
on an empty stomach. An he made
lot Of other disparaging remarks.
Mrs. Bunsen was almost in tears.
Bunsen had to go into the other room
to have quiet laugh at her expense.
The next day he had forgotten all
about the hat.
The day after that he was reminded
Of it. Mrs. Bensen handed him bill
for retrimming that hat-$1834 it
came to.
Bunsen paid it without a murmur
and said the revised edition of the hat
was just exactly right. He is not
criticizing hats any more.

Artificial Rubber.

A patent has recently been issued
by the imperial German patent office
for a process converting the oil of the
soya bean into thick and tough
liquid product, says the Frankfurter
Zeitung, which is mixed with attenu.
ated alkalis and then heated to $50
degrees. The result is the production
of a rubberlike, tough ana elastic mass
capable of being vulcanized like nat.
ural rubber. The soya bean is indi.
genous to Klautschou, and as it may
be brought into Germany free of duty
it may give rise to a new and impor
tant industry.

FREE SWIMMING LESSONS.
Boys Will Be Instructed in the Y. II
C. A. Pool.

AS part Of the national campaign on
the part OF the Young Mems Christian
Association to teach every man in Amer
lea how to swim, the boys department
of the local association has arranged to
give free lessons during the Easter va
cation to any boy in Washington who
wishes to learn.
The big pool will be given up to the
boys from April IL to April %. Any
boy in the city, whether a member OF
the association or not, between the ages
Of twelve and eighteen years, may, if
he wishes. use the pool once each day
during that time under coaching of a
skilled swimming teacher.
The only things necessary are parents
permission and a heart and lungs strong
enough to go into the water. One Of the
physicians on the Y. NJ. c.. A. staff will
examine each boy to determine his physf-
to make the arrangements convenient
and safe for the hundreds Of boys who
will probably take advantage Of the offer.
The pool will be only half full of water,
1t will be emptied and cleaned every day,
and the instructor and one other atten-
dant will always be on hand so that
there can be no possible accident in the
pool
at the head Of the department of physi-
cal work Of the boys department, and
Nils G. Hensen, assistant physical direc-
tor, will be the instructors. They will
be assisted by the following members
of the volunteer lfe-saving class:
Meany, Hanna, Eaton, Rutherford, Wood.
Hayes. Gates, Hortung, Burch, Cults and
DeI.ashmutt.
Any boy desiring to learn is required
to go to the boys department Office at
1882 G. street northwest and get card
certificate of permission. which is TO be
taken to parent to sign Then when this
is returned the boy Is examined by a
physician and IL the boy passes inspec-
ton he will be given a ticket for the
pool and lessons.
When it is horne in mind that more
than 1900 men and boys drown each
year in America and Canada by accident,
the advantage OF learning to swim be-
comes apparent. Director Long be-
lieves that any boy can learn the A B
