Scenes Of Human Nature Exist
 in This City

While sauntering nonchalantly through the streets and byways, the wanderer who keeps his eyes open, sees many trivial but odd and of- times unusual sights and incidents during the busy rush of a city's life. Little scenes of humor, tales of the funny as we'll as the serious side of human life are creeping up on all aides of us, but the philosopher, the optimist or the truly, natural born wsnderer likes them.

Where did you Set thenfc" was asked one young American with a blouseful of fruit. "M-m-m down the m-m road" he gulped with mouthfulN of apple.

 Some Catch.
 An automobile was going up Church street at about 12 miles an hour. On the front seat was a man driving and {. small child leaning far out over the door. In the rear sat a woman, pre- sumably the mother of the child. The Car swung around the traffic police man at the corner of Main and came to a sudden stop as another car sud- denly lodged in front. The jolt of the stop caused the baby, who had been leaning almost half way out to lose it's balance and over the door it went But, as is being stated by a local evangelist, the day of miracles does not seem to be over. The mother watching with growing uneasiness the child, screamed and grabbed for her youngster as said child plunged head over heels over the door. Traffic Po- liceman Wagner gasped in wonder as the woman caught the child by one hand, literally picking it out of the air. None the worse for ith adven- tnre the youngster was placed on a rear seat with the watchful mother and the car proceeded.
 The Vanishing Bike.
 A messenger boy rode his wheel up to the post office, where he left it standing balanced against the curb as he went inside. A large moving van drove up alongside the bicycle and stopped. The van was first to leave, it brushed against the wheel so close that spectators could imagine the air caused by the moving truck disturbed the balance of the bicycle, but the rear end swung by and never touched it. Just as those who were watching to see a smashe bicycle turned away, assured that ii would not be struck, there was 2 shout and the wheel was seen van.
