Conspicuous on the end of the coun- ter in the little cigar shop was brand new. highly ornate cigar lighter made of heavy bronze. It was the type which has a wire rod sheathed in a phial of alcohol, from which the rod is drawn to be dipped in a jet of fire.
 So proud was the cigarmaker of the new fixture that he pointed it out to every customer with special courtesy.
 While thus engaged one evening re- gently he was mortified to discover that the wire rod with it's beautiful bronze handle was missing.
 It was here a moment since" he declared to a man who was waiting for light. Where can it be?'
 Easy question to answer" smiled the customer. That little rod is out there on the pavement just outside the door. have not seen it, but I know it is there"

Needless Interruptions.

A New Yorker writes the Times to protest against . habit he says met. ropolitan women have of knitting at concerts. Recently, he declares, he was obliged to sit near a knitter and the click of her busy needles dis turbed him.
 Here is a serious issue. One has seen a woman, returning from mar ket, shelling her beans on the street car. There could be no objection to her plucking a holiday goose under the same circumstances. provided she didn't scatter feathers on the floor.
 But knitting at a concert is differ ent. A knitting needle obbligato to a harp selection might lack something of the ideal. One might better take a basket of corn to husk, or an arm full of stockings to darn.
 Almost any concert enthusiast will agree with the Times complainant. If the music is not to ones liking it is better to exchange whispered stories with one's neighbor than to disturb the assemblage with clicking needles.
