MASSENET'S HOBBY.
A Story of the Composer and His Dear
Friend, the Bookbnder.


In the recollections of Massenet a
story is told. says the Hamburger
Nachrichten, illustrating the cOmpos-
er's passionate admiration for beauti-
full bindings. Not week passed with
out a visit from him to his bookbinder
when he brought new book or a new
edition to be bound. In the course of
time he and his bookbinder became the
best of friends. and when Massenet ar
rived the talk was at first of every
thing on earth except the real object
of his visit
Look herer' Masseuet would say
eventually. giving the man the volume
to be bound.
"Spendid"' replied the bookbinder.
and then for his customer and friend
he would devise some fresh wonder in
the art of binding.
One morning Massenet suddenly
learned that his friend was giving up
business. He hurried to his shop.
Heavens. Is it true you are leaving
Paris?" he asked.
why, certainly! I have bought a
charming little country house near
Nantes"
What! A country house, And in
the provinces" And he added sadly,
"Ah, my poor friend. l am partly re-.

Real Mind Reader.

Now He Believes the Policeman Is a
Real Mind Reader.
A certain truckman in the habit of
using the new Manhattan bridge on his
morning trip to Brooklyn has abandon
ed that route because of superstition.
Several days ago while the truckman
was taking a load of chicken crates to
Brooklyn a fine cap Topped down be-
fore him Just as his team had passed
under the Manhattan tower. He look
ed around. and, seeing that none of the
transfers ahead of him or behind him
was bareheaded. he picked up the cap
and put 1t under the cushion OF bis
seat
Now, it CHANGED that the cap had
been blown from the head Of one of
the engineers of the bridge department
who was high up In the tower at the
time. On reaching the tower base he
called up the policeman at the Brook
Ign approach on the telephone. describ-
ed the teamster and his wagon and
told how he had lost his cap.
AS the long file of trucks passed by
the policeman the latter halted the
thieving driver, saying: '1'll trouble
you to hand over that cap you picked
up on the Manhattan side. It's black
and white check. and you've got it
right there under your seat"
Amazed and frightened at the cops
demand, the driver pulled out his hid
den find and tossed it to him. Here
you are" he said. You're a mind
reader or one of them guys what can
see around corners. New York Trib-
une.

A Bargain.

A young society woman met a count
and fell in love with him. Her father
was opposed to a match of this kind
and declared the foreign nobleman was
simply after his money.
Count" said the young woman one

love for you distresses my parents.
My father told me he would give S1O.-

"Ah. darling" said the count. lees

DANGEROUS CA!AHsH
STOPPED BY Hy0NEl

just as long as you have catarrh, your
head will be stopped up, your nose will
itch. your breath will be foul, you will
hawk and shuttle, you will have drop
pings in the throat and that choked up
feeling in the morning. The germs of
catarrh have you in their power; they
are continually irritating the membrane
of your nose and throat.
You must kill these loathsome germs
or their desperate assaults will in time
leave you physical wreck
There is one remedy sold by w. II.
Sheldon that is guaranteed to kill the
germs and stop catarrh, or money back.
1t is Hyomei-you breathe it. The COM
plete outfit costs $100. There is none
just as good or that gives such quick,
sure and effective relief.

Chief Beavers of Atlanta in
New Role

Atlanta, Ca, July 10. - The SUI
preme courts of Georgia, Alabama
and Mississippi, respectively, which
have been considering this spring the
question of when pistol is not pis
toll, can find their answer today at
the Atlanta police headquarters.
The answer is this: A pistol is not
a pistol after it has been hit with a
sledge hammer by Chief of Police J.
r. Beavers.
The police had their old boss sale
yesterday, at which all the jnuk col
lected at headquarters and confscat-
ed from prisoners was sold Formerly
confscated pistols were sold at this
sale. but under new law the pistols
are first destroyed and then sold as
scrap iron.
The problem of how to destroy them
was solved when Chief Beavers got an
anvil and sledge hammer. Each of
the murderous weapons was smashed
to smithereens.
