CAPTAIN KNEW HIS VISITOR
Also Realized That Even Superdread-
neugh Would Be lmperiled by
Presence Of Idiot.

The b~rand-new battleship OF the su-
peterborough type had been thrown
open to visitors. Her captain stood
at the gangway receiving his guests,
pride and delight in his magnificent
vessel shining In every lineament.
Suddenly his gaze concentrated upon
an approaching figure. His face grew
pale to the lips; he shook in every
fiber. Controlling his terror by q
mighty effort. he turned hastily to his
executive officer.
"Clear for action, Mr.. Bloodlet," he
cried. BEAT to quarters. Load with
grape. Order the marines to concen-
trate behind me, prepared to repel
b%oarders."
AYE, aye, sir" responded the Off
GER promptly, although thoroughly be.
wildered.
The blood returned to the captains
face and he regained his composure
as he remarked how quickly his or
der were carried out, and how they
were prepared to meet their formida'
BILE foe successfully. Then his eyes
again sought the object Of his fears
He was close aboard. Hello. cap'n!'
he cried, a smile playing
about his weak mouth.
Back" shouted the captain stern
ly. Back, or I'll blow you up!"
Say, cap'n, that's what you seen
to be doin'," responded the enemy
giggling.
Don't you try to set foot on board
my ship" continued the captain vehe'
mently. I'm not going to jeopardize
boat, crew and visitors for your pleas
ure."
"Oh, say. cap'n," demonstrated the
enemy with another silly grin, don't
you know me?"
"You bet l do. You're the idiot that
rocks the boat, and you shall not come
on board mine"

Astonishing coiffures.

Coiffures are to be high again, but
not so high as in the past. Formerly
doorways had to be heightened to &C.

"cHAPEL OF REST" FOR POOR
HaIborn Council Provides Place for
Dead Pending Burial-k valu-
able Reform.

London.-A valuable reform which
should be of much use to the poor has
been made in Holborn, where the Dor
ough council has opened what is call
ed a chapel Of rest" The object Of
the chapel is to provide a place to
which the poor al take their dead
pending burial. No charge will be
made, The need Of this innovation is
clear and pressing. Thousands Of
Londoners live In one-roomed tene-
ments. and when death occurs are
forced for the time to live with their
dead. There are also still about a
thousand underground rooms occu.
pied by the poor. 1t is hoped that
other borough councils will follow the
example OF Holborn.
