WRATH CAME IN VERY HANDY
so Mad After Spat With Sweetheart
That He Whipped
Bandit.

Sam Jones was mad clear through.
He had just had a quarrel with his
sweetheart. and although he had con-
cealed his fanger until he left her
home he was now boiling over with
rage. AS usual. Sam had got the
worst OF the little spat, for in spite of
his feet and his great strength
his diminutive lady love had wound
him around her finger like so much
ribbon.
AS Sam alighted from the elevated
train at his home station his cheeks
were still flushed with helpless anger
and he was just "spoiling" for n fight
or almost any kind of n chance TO
even up matters on some one. His
wish was destined to be granted
sooner than he knew. for when he
descended the elevated steps to the
street a figure blocked his path. a re-
volver was held a few inches below
his nose, and a gruff voice command.
ed, Come on Shell out. jack"
Without a seconds hesitation Sam
smashed the wouldbe rObber full in
the face with his brawny fist and sent
him reeling several PAGES backward
and stunned him so that he dropped
his weapon. Both Sam and the thief
were so surprised that they merely
stared at each other FOR few sec
onds, then the latter remembered that
he possessed a good pair of legs and
started to run at express speed.
Here's a good one" Sam laughed
grimly as he set out in hot pursuit
of his assailant. "This fellow intend
ed 10 hold me up and now I'm going
to hold him up just to balance things
a trihe." Sam was soon forced TO
give up the chase, however. for he
was burdened with a heavy ulster.
while the holdup man wore light
sweater.
Gee" chuckled Sam, 'ff / hadn't
been as hot under the collar as I was.
as a result of that little fuss with
Alice, I'll bet I'd have shelled out like
a little lamb when he presented the
invitation. III 90 up there tomorrow
night with a big box of chocolates
and square things up"

EVER SEE A STOUT POSTMAN7
In London, for Instance, Carriers
Walk over Sixteen Miles Garry
ing Forty Pounds.

Has IL ever struck you why a stout
postman is such rarity? The ques-
tion Is worth attention.
A postman who in a busy London
residential district walks from four
teen to sixteen miles a day. starts out
in the morning with mails weighing
something like eighty pounds. As
his letters and packages are distrlb-
uted, the weight of his bag, of course,
grows less. so that the average weight
he carries during his trip is forty
pounds. A pint of water weighs u
pound A 10-quart pail weighs about
twenty pounds. and the average
weight the postman carries is equal
to two of these. If you want to know
why postmen are thin, try 15mile
walk with a 10-quart pail Of water in
each hand.
The driver of a brewery wagon, on
the other hand' Is usually fat. The
reason is that he sits on the seat Of
his dray most of the day. and often
consumes large quantities of liquid
Policemen, too, often grow fat
through standing about on their beats.

Patrolman's Brave Act.

A New York patrolman of the East
126th street station, sent thrills up
and down the spines of several hun
dred persons in Third avenue the 9th
er afternoon when he leaped for the
head OF a runaway horse, missed the
bride. fell sprawling. and then picked
himself up in time to get grab at
the end of the flying wagon. Such
was the speed at which the outfit was
moving that the policeman, to the ad-
miration OF onlookers, was hoisted In
to the wagon. He found It impossi-
BILE to stop the horse, but calmly sat
In the drivers seat and waited until
the animal was halted by string Of
street cars at 13Sth street. The horse

ROMAN ROADS IN ENGLAND
Project Of Putting Old Highways In

Revived.

British motorists are showing soma
interest In project which is being re
viyed OF reopening and putting In
usable condition the old Roman roads
that led out from London 10 the sur.

ways. built by the Roman generals for
military purposes, were well con.

abandoned.
Few except students of the subject
are aware OF the great network OF
highways which were driven across
England, Wales and Scotland by the
Roman generals. The straightness OF
these roads probably is explained by
the fact that the cities and towns
they linked up were founded subse-
quent to the road making The roads

New F,es With Old Faces.

This, too, frightens even the daring
poet from the theater. that the mob.
greater in numbers. though less in
wits, untaught, stolid ready to hoot
down the gentry if they venture to diff
fer, demand between the lyrics either
a dancing bear or boxing match. for
in these the pit finds it's chief pleas

classes have nowadays lost their ear
for good poetry and have turned to
praise vain gauds and the delights of
