Cured in the suburbs of Albany. He
was a stalwart young citizen; she a
charming young yoman. They were
under an awning. The rain had
ceased; but the street was muddy. He
did not look like Sir Walter Raleigh;
nor did she look like Queen Elizabeth.
But probably Q. e. never looked pref
tier.
"Wuxtry poipers!" shouted news
boy.
"say, kid" he said, "are you too
busy to earn a na1f-dollar?"
s'Well, bo," replied the boy, "do I

well, boy, take your papers,
spread 'em out from curb to car track.
Cover the mud with 'em. Get busy!"
He paid the astonished boy. The
car came. He bowed in courtly man
ner to the queen. She blushed and
said:
ooh, Billy, you foolish boy!" But
she walked over the papered path as
proudly as @. E. could have done.
Then, like @. E., she sentenced him
Tor life. He is her meal ticket now.

A While for a Time,

A Cleveland school teacher writes
that she asked her class what was
the difference between the express
sions, "a WHILE" and "a time says
the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Nobody
seemed to have any ideas on the sub
ject. Finally the light Of Intelligence
was seen to shine in the eyes OF one
little boy, and the teacher called upon
him to save the intellectual honor of
the class.
Il know, teacher" he cried eager
ly. when papa says he's going out
for a while, mamma says she knows
he's going out for a time!"
That's one way of looking at it.

Absorbed.

A college professor noted for his
concentration of thought, returned
home from a scientific meeting one
night, still bordering deeply upon the
subject that had been discussed. AS
he entered his room he heard noise
that seemed to come from under the
bed.
"Is there someone there?" he asked
absently.
mo, professor" answered the In
truder, who knew his peculiarities.
That's strange" muttered the pro-
lessor. 81 was almost sure I heard
someone under the bed"

Protected Both Ways.

Two conservative ladies or old
fashioned notions were travelling in
the west and, becoming interested in
a young girl on the train, finally asked
why she was making SO long jour-
ney alone. They were greatly shock
ed at her blithe explanation:
We'll, you see. my mother and STEP
father live at one end of the journey,
and my father and stepmother live at
the other. They send me to each
other twice year, so there isn't a
bit of danger with four parents all
on the lookout"

Riahteous Indignation.

Little Ruth was the youngest daugh-
ter in a very strict Presbyterian fam
lily that especially abhorred profanity.
One day little Ruth became exceed
ingly exasperated with one of her dol
lies. In her baby vocabulary she could
find no words to express adequately
her disapproval of dolly's conduct.
Finally, throwing the offending dol
ly across the room. she cried, feel
ingIy:
MY gracious! I wish I belonged
to a family that sweared!"

SIGNAL LIGHTS WILL
AID DEPARTMENT
Supt. Gormon Expects That
Additional Ones Will
Be Installed.

An extended system of red signal
lights for the police department will
be asked of the board of police COM
missioners at the next meeting, July
fifty.
superintendent Gormon will ask for
four additional signals, to be placed at
different points in the city, by which
the police on their districts may be
called to answer emergency calls. A
light at Eighth and North E streets or
near the Union Station is desired; one
at the east end of the Doran bridge;
one in the north end and one in the
East end. Supt. Gormon says the sig
nal lights are very necessary and may
be installed at very small cost.
The lights used are small mean
descent red lights, so connected that
a push button at police headquarters
sets them aglow. Patrolmen who see
the lights are required to report to
headquarters at once, and such as are
needed are dispatched to the scene of
trouble.
But two red lights are now used by
the police one at Fifth and Main and
one at Eighth and Main streets. With
four additional lights, Supt. Gormon
says. the police will be well equipped
to handle emergency calls.

The Banshee.

The banshee is the domestic ghost or
spirit attached to certain Irish or high
land Scottish households and is sup
posed to take an interest in the welfare
of the family generally and especially
to wall at the death OF any one OF its
members. The banshee is pictured in
Irish folklore under the form of a little
old woman with long hair, which she
continually combs. at the same time
keeping up an incessant weeping and
wailing. The incident Of the comb is
exactly similar to the legend of the
German loreIei. a spirit which sings
while the banshee weeps. as an accom-
paniment. The proud distinction Of
possessing q private banshee is allow
ed only to families of pure Milesian
stock. The word is derived from the
