will always find four feet, and their
owners, unless one of them happens to
have wooden leg
Under ordinary circumstances four
into two won't go, but the Squeezer
cars defy the laws of gravitation.
A Squeezer conductor can put TWEEN
ty-six into nine, and still have four
to carry.
For a man with small dining room
the Squeezer car has it's advantage,
but when a stout man rides in them
he finds himself supporting a lot of
strangers he never met before.
One morning l jumped on one of
those Squeezers feeling just like a
two year old, full of health and hap
piness.
During the first seven blocks three
men, fresh from a distillery, grew up
in front of me and removed the
scenery.
One of them had to get out in
hurry. so he kicked me on the shins
to show how sorry he was to leave
me.
One of the other two must have
been in the distillery long time, be-
cause pretty soon he neglected to use
his memory and sat down in my lap
When l demonstrated with him, he
replied that this is free country, and
if he wished to sit down l had no
business to stop him.
Then his friend pulled US apart, and
I resumed the use of my lap.
During the next twenty blocks
had one Of the worst daylight night
mares l ever rode behind.
The party who had been studying
the exhibits of the distillery became
obsessed with the idea that my foot
was the loud pedal on piano and he
started to play the Blue Danube
Waltzes.'
That man was such hard drinker
that he gave me the govt just from
standing On my feet.
Then l jumped off and swore off
and swore at and walked home.
If the man who invented the idea
of standing up between seats in a
Squeezer is alive he should have a
monument.
My idea would be to catch him alive
and place a monument on him, and
have the conductor come around
every ten minutes for his fare.

Secret of LAUGHTER,

turn to nature. Civilization and cul-
ture are late additions and we are
living to a great extent in artificial
conditions. Psychology makes plain
the fact that our present mental equip
ment has been slowly and painfully
tanning that high altitude is inevitable.
This tension is relieved by nonsense
and by the portrayal in humorous
anecdotes and on the stage of eva
sions of convention and attractions of
the prevailing code of morals and
manners.

OF US may not be Hogs, but there IL
a moment in the life of every man
when he gets near enough to it to be
called Ham Sandwich
Just then the Disinfecti brothers,
Microbeini and Germicide, walked
over me and I had short but excit-
ing visit to the slums.
Since that eventful day / have
moved over thirty-six times, and out
of the thirty-six people gave the end
seat to all but three of them belonged
to the Mucilage family, and stayed
there.
Therefore l made myself a severe
promise not to worry any more about
my Hog qualifications when movable
or immovable on an openface car
l will do as my conscience dictates,
and walk downtown as much as pos
sible
And, speaking of street cars, I was
in one Of those cities recently where
some of the cars stop on the near side
of some Of the streets and some stop
on the far side of some of the streets.
Honestly. they had me in the air.
/ left the hotel to attend to some
business downtown and went over to
the near side of the street to wait for
a car.
When the car came along l held
my thumb up in the atmosphere warn.
ingly, but the motorman kept on to
the far side and stopped.
By the time l ran over to the far
side he was gone again, and another
car had stopped at the near side.
When 1 rushed back to the near side
the car passed me going to the far

LIFE IN SERBIAN MACEDONIA
Result Of BlIshtlns Rule Of the Turks
10 Shown by Miserable State Of
the Country.

There is a great difference between
Serbia proper and the Macedonian
provinces which she has recently ac-
quired down south, George Macaulay
Trevelyan writes in the North Amer
lean Review.
Serbian Macedonia contains many
races. European and Asiatic, and is
still rotten with all the vices of a
country but just released from Turk
ish rule. The inhabitants dwell in
gigantic villages Of 5000 or 10000
people each, whence they ride out
every morning to till the distant
fields. In this their custom re-
sembles that Of many of the Sicilians
and South Italians. Indeed, the bare
limestone mountains and backward
civilization of Macedonia are Curl
ously like some parts of South Italy
or Sicily.
But the change from South Italy
to North Italy is not greater than
the change from Serbian Macedonia
to northern Serbia. In northern Ser
bia, which has been free of the Turks
for hundred years and where the
entire population is Serbian, you
have landscape of gentle, undulat-
ing, fertile hills, cut up into fields by
hedges after the English pattern. 1t
is much more like the typical scenery
of the Balkans or Mediterranean.
The white-walled, red-roofed farm
houses are scattered widely about
this pleasant countryside, for there
is no need for the inhabitants to
draw together for safety at nightfall.
1t is this country, the richest in Ser
bia. that the Austrian troops sacked
so ruthlessly during their invasion.

SIGHTS AIRsHIPs FROM AFFAIR.

The familiar story of the geese
which once saved a beleaguered city
is rivaled by the services of a very
sagacious parrot in the present war.
A. scientist, writing for the Frank
furter Zeitung, says: eve reside in
Freiburg, Braisgau, on the western
part of the Loretto mountains. We
had parrot named Lora, who had
her stand on a western terrace of our
house and made known the approach
of every aviator with special cry
long before he was observable to the
human eye. The parrot restlessly
moved about, spread her wings, fix
eddy looked above and uttered cries
such as we had never heard before.
The children then excitedly came to
us and said, Lora sees an AVIATOR
We brought spyglass and, follow
