 The big~~rnan grinned with savage sarcasm. displaying two rows of sharp uneven yellow teeth.
 "No, you don't do nothin' of the kind," he announced in tones that car ried conviction. 'I looked inter the little old tank, and there's enough to carry. us to Manhattan, all right; an the spark plugs is all o. k., and there's plenty of cylinder oil. When do we start?"
 Abandoning for the present all at- tempts to evade the issue. Grimes switched on the spark, procured the crank and spun the motor. It started on the second trial, spluttering ex- postulation until the cylinders re- sponded to the friction warmth and the gas began steady flow.

Living Wage in Paris ss7s a Year.

As the absolute minimum for main taining a man and wife in Paris under the present cost of living, $975 a year is the estimate made after a detailed investigation by the socialist newspa- per L'Oeuvre. This allows for the smallest quantity of food capable of keeping them in health and permits of no extra expenses, such as use of tubes, omnibuses, the purchase of newspapers, pleasures, or even the re- placement of worn-out household ar ticles. The possibility of obtaining supplies at figures so low as those taken is, however, disputed.
 A young man seldom discovers he is in love until the girl in the case puts him next.

Walking for Pleasure.

The old-fashioned person who used to walk mile after mile on pleasant Sunday afternoons through the coun- tryside, has practically disappeared. This is the inevitable conclusion drawn by anyone who still pursues this ancient pastime and who has spent Sunday after Sunday drilling by foot over macadam md dirt roads fre- quented by automObilists and an oc- casional farm hand travelling to a neighbOr's.
 Walking for the sake of the walk has nearly passed out, along with the one-horse rig, the glass-incased artifi- cial flowers in the parlor and hair-cov cred furniture. It had its day before the bicycle and the automobile and with the advent of these quicker, cas- fer means of transportation it dropped from the human scheme of things with a dull thud.-Omaha News.
