No Fun For !ny-: In some of the cantons of Switzer land they have speclal laws made for boys. Here is a sample of them: “If & boy throws a stone and hits a man he may be fined 8 francs. “If a boy throws a snowball and hits a woman he may be fined 2 francs. “If a boy calls a girl a ‘red head’ he may be fined from 2 to 4 francs. “If a boy throws at frogs In a pond without being ordered to do so by his father or teacher he shall be fined a franc. “If a boy throws a stone and breaks a window belonging to some one else his father may whip him or he may be fined 2 francs. “If a boy makes a face at his teach- er or draws pictures of him on his slate or speaks ill of him he may be fined B francs and have to beg his par- don. P “If a boy stones a dog or chases a cat It is & fine of a franc. “If two boys fight without the con- sent of thelr teacher it is a fine of 8 francs. “If a boy steals apples or other fruit it i= a fine of 2 francs, and he should be beaten by his father.” The American boy who reads the above will wonder what the S8wiss boy has to live for. About all he can do and not be fined is to have the measles or whooping cough.—Exchange. Man’s Unwlisdom. The simplest and plainest laws of health are outraged every hour of the day by the average man, Did Adam smoke? Did Eve wear corsets? Did Solomon chew tobacco? Did Ruth chew gum? Did the children of Israel meke for a beer garden after crossing the Red sea? DId Rebecca eat gum- drops and ice cream and call for soda water? Adam was the first and was made perfect from head to heel. How long would he remaln so after eating a mince ple before going to bed? Sup- pose he had slept in a bedroom five by seven, with the windows down, the door shut and two dogs under the bed? Buppose Eve had laced herself up in a corset, put on tight shoes, sat up all hours of the night eating her fill of trash and sizzled her halr. When you come to look at the way a man misbe- haves himself you can only wonder he ever lived to get there. Verlly, the av- erage man behaves as If he were little better than a fool.—Woodbury (Conn.) Reporter. A Pony Sentinel. During one of General Custer's In- dian campaigns he had a boy bugler with him who was mounted on a cir- cus pony he had picked up somewhere. The animal was not only full of tricks, but he proved himself a better sentinel than any of the soldiers, Three times in four months he saved the camp from a night attack when no other suspected that danger was near. Upon one occasion the pony, who was loose and walking about camp, discevered a sentinel asleep on his post. That was wrong, and the animal knew it was, and he gave the seldler such a bite on the arm as caused him to yell out and arouse the whole camp. Pony and boy both died in Custer’s last battle. The pony had twelve arrows in his body when found.—Clncinnat! Commerclal Tribune. As It Looked to Him. One of the ladies in fancy dress was, though fair enough, a trifle fat, and we will not say that she did not look well out of the thirtles. And there spake to her a reporter: “May I ask what character you rep- resent?”’ “Helen of Troy,” she answered. “What did you think it was?’ “Well,” he murmured, . ungallantly enough, as welghts and measures con- fused his brain and he gazed on her ample proportions, “I thought you might be Helen of Avoirdupots!” One For the Debating Club. A group of half a dozen physicists, all eminent; a sheet of paper; a pencil. ‘With the latter one of the group.draws a pulley, a cord over the pulley, a tree, a bough from which the pulley hangs. To one end of the cord is attached a stone; to the other cord clings a mon- key. The stone balances the monkey. If the monkey proceeds fo climb up the cord, what will happen?’ Will the stone rise or fall? Heated discussion; breakup of the party; no result. Can any reader help to settle this question? An Anecdote of Agassiz. On one occaslon a person entered Professor Agassiz’s room with a picture which he desired to sell, denominated a “Birdseye View of Cambridge.”; The professor contemplated it for a moment, lifted his eyes, looked ‘at the vender of the picture, and said, with his characteristic accent, “Well, [ thank my God zat I am not & bird.”— Boston Transcript.

During the rehearsals of a panto- mime in a Beottish town (Glasgow, I think; Glasgow has always been an eventful place to me!) a child was wanted for the Spirit of the Mustard Pot. ‘'What more natural than that my father should offer'my services? I had a shock of pale yellow hair,'I was small enough to be put into the prop- erty mustard put, and the Glasgow stage manager would easily assume that I had inherited talent. My father bad acted with Macready in the stock seasons both at Edinburgh and Glas- gow and bore a very high reputation with Scottish audiences. But the stage manager and father alike reckoned without thelr actress! When they tried to put me into the mustard pot I yelled lustlly and showed more lung power than aptitude for the stage. “Put your child into the mustard pot, Mr. Terry,” said the stage manager, “Hang you and your mustard pot, sir,” sald my mortifled father. “I won't frighten my child for you or any one else.” But, all the same, he was bitterly dis- appointed at my first dramatic failure, and when we reached home he put me in the corner to chasten me. “You'll never make an actress!” he said, shak- ing a reproachful finger at me.—Ellen Terry in McClure's Magazine, Preferred the Baby's Voice.

One evening his youngest| ¥ was_holding forth in her best style.

What she wants 18|y real music. The fact that I used to sing in the glee club at Yale and sing | § well, too, may make a difference,” Accordingly, the professor took the | child and, striding up and down the |V room, sang in his best manner. He had not finished the second verse of his | W song when a ring was heard. The door was opened, and there stood a girl | M of fourteen, who sald: “I'm. one of the family that's just |\ moved into the flat next to yours. There's a sick person with us, and he says, if it's all the same to you, would you mind letting the baby cry instead of singing to 1t?'—Success. A Conslderate Muslician, Many storles are told of the jealousy and i1l feeling among musicians, so it 1§ refreshing to note that at least one genius did not fail in good natured ap- preciation of a fellow artist. It is re- lated how Rossini, walking one day on the boulevard with the musician Bra- ga, was greeted by Meyerbeer, who anxiously inquired after the health of his dear Rossini. “Bad,” answered the latter. “Fright- ful headaches, legs all wrong.” After a few minutes’ conversation Meyerbeer passed on, and Braga asked the gredt composer how it happened that he had suddenly become so un- well, Smilingly Rossini reassured his friend. “Oh, I couldn’t be. better. I merely. wanted to please Meyerbeer. He would so like to see me go-to smash!”—St. Louls Republic. Why They're Trams Abroad. “Abroad,” said a tourist agent, “you must call street cars trams and street railways you must call tramways. It you speak of trolleys over there, you ‘won’t be understood. The word tram must puzzle the averagé etymologist. It derives from a man’s name—Outram —Thomas Outram. Outram lived in Derbyshire, and in the beginning of the last century he Invented a peculiar sort of track that diminished the frie- tion between wheels and roadbeds. These tracks of Outram’s, though noth- ing like a trolley track, were called first outramways, then tramways, and when street lines and street cars came into existence they were dubbed re- spectively tramways and trams,” A Crocodile In a Tree. An African hunter once found a large crocodile hanging in the. fork of a tree about ten feet from the ground. As the place was fully half a mile from any water, it was difficult to ao- ‘count for the crocodile’s strange posi- tion. When questioned upon the sub- Ject, the natives explained that it was put there by an elephant. It seems that when the elephants wade into the Lake Ngami to bathe the crocodiles are in the habit of worrying them and bit- ing their legs. Sometimes when an elephant {8 annoyed beyond endurance it picks up its tormentor in its trunk, puts it among the branches of a tree and leaves 14 there.—London Graphic.
