Johnson was taken to St. Anthony’s hospital, for “repairs” and will probably be “laid up” for a week or ten days, or more. How to Avoid Pneumonia. You can avoid pnetmonia and other serious results from a cold by taking Foley’s Aoney and Tar. It stops the cough and expels the cold from the system as it is mldly laxative. Refuse any but the gen- uine in the yellow ‘package. E. A. Barker. Wasp’s Jaws Make Colony's Nest. ‘Wasps readily succumb before the focreasing cold of autumn. The few that escape the merciless scourge ot mortality are the queens of next sea- -son. They pass the winter in some warm cranny, and when the spring arrives each comes forth from its hid- ing place and seeks a suitable place for the nest that is to be. This found, the queen repairs to a fence or tree trunk and with her jaw rasps off a bundle of wood fiber which when moistened with saliva and kneaded forms the paperlike substance of which the nest is entirely constructed. Just as bees have invented a peculiar nest building material in wax, sc wasps have prepared a special durable paper for the same purpose. The queen mother lays the foundations of the city with her own jaws. She attaches a sort of stalk of wood paper to a chosen support. This may be the branch of a tree, a root in a cavity below ground or a beam in a garden shed. The stalk prepared, the queen builds a few shallow cells, in each ot which she lays an egg. As these ma- ture, hatch and develop into worker wasps the labor of the little colony is turned-over to them, and thus a vast nest with thousands of cells is evolved —Chicago Tribune. The Wrong Nell. Nell is a girl who lives up on Capi-| tol hill. On Mondays a woman comes to Nell's house to wash clothes. The woman's name is Nell too. One Mon- day Nell, the girl, was in the sitting room reading when the telephone rang Nell, the washerwoman, answered the ring. - Nell, the girl, then heard Nell, the washerwoman, say: “Yes, this is Nell.” Silence. “How’s that?” Silence. i “What! Am I mad because you kissed me last night? Look here, man, you're too fresh. Who are you any- way? I never kissed”— Just then the telephone receiver was wildly snatched from her hand. Nell, the girl, blushing furlously, had grab- bed it. She hung it on the hook. “He wanted me,” she said. “He al- ways tries to tease me that way. I—I never kissed him in my life.” As she disappeared up the stairs the washerwoman smiled and said: “That’s a big one.”—Denver Post. A Ghost Under the Sea. The story is told of a diver who saw two ghosts “full fathom five” under the surface. He had gone down to the wreck of a large steamer and was crossing the main saloon when two gray shapes of enormous size came shambling toward him. He did not wait to make notes for the Psychical society, but gave the danger signal and was at once pulled up. Told in the cheerful light of day, it seemed rather a lame story, and another diver went down to see what he could make of it. Toward him also came the shambling gray shapes. ‘ He stood Irresolute for a moment and then, going boldly for- ward, struck his hatchet through—a mirror! The ghosts were only a dim reflection of his own legs, much en- larged, of course, as everything is that a diver sees through the great frontal eye of his helmet. Hooded Snakes. The hoods of snakes were unques- tionably intended by nature to act as weapons of intimidation, for when sud- denly opened, as they are during the excitement -of a contest, these give their owners an apparent and fe i ble enlargement. But the hoods whick have been so useful at some period In snake history have now become so_en- larged as to tend toward the extinction | of their owners, just as the overde- velopment in the tusks of prehistoric animals led straight to their destruc- During a fight the hooded snake from the outstretched and- weighty hood—he overbalances himself and top- ples forward. His assallant, the mon- goose and some birds specially, seizes him when prostrate and, ripping up the back of the neck, .speedily dis- patches him, Badly Joined. Mr. Russell in bis “Collections and Recollections” tells this story of an in- appropriate quotation: The leading cit- izen of a seaside town erected some |- iron benches on the sea front and, with a view to combine the commemoration of his own beneficence with the giving a profitable turn to the thoughts of the public, inscribed on the backs, “Thése seats were presented to the town of Shingleton by Joseph Buggins, Esq., J. P, for this borough—‘The sea is his, and he made it.’ The Secret of Content. If men today actually possessed the acres on which they toll, they would be in no hurry to leave them; they would be effectively chained to the soil by the sense of independence and proprietorship, as is the case among the rural population of France, who da not rent but own the land.—W. J. Dawson. . The Hard Part. “How Is your son getting on In his new position?” “First rate!” answered Farmer Dobbs. “He knows more about the business now than his employer does. All he has to do now s to convince his employer!”—London Express. Revenge. “It took you an awfully long time to pull that fellow’s tooth,” said the as- sistant, “Yes,” answered the dentist grimly. “He married the girl T loved!” The worst whipping a bully ever gets is from some man who doesn’t want to fight.—Chicago News. In a Nitroglycerin “Hill.” In the “danger area” the severest discipline is maintained. All entrances are cdrefully guarded by searchers, who rigorously examine every indi- vidual that desires to enter, relieving him of any metallic objects that may be carried upon his person, together with matches and other suspicious ob- jects which upon coming into contact with the dangerous chemicals used in this zone might provoke serious trou- ble. No matter how often an employee engaged within the hill may pass in and out, every time he enters he must submit to this preliminary and essen- tial operation. There are also some 500 girls employed, and these are un- der the charge of matrons. Hairpins, ordlnary pins, shoe buttons, metal pegs ‘within the soles of the shoes, knitting and other needles are all religiously barred. Their hair is tied with braid or ribbon, and, as with the male em- ployees, every time they enter the “danger area” they are similarly searched by the matrons. — Scientific American, * A Hard Knock. Railroad claim agents have little falth in their fellow creatures. One sald recently: “Every time I settle a claim with one of these hard headed rural residents who wants the railroad to pay twice what he would charge the butcher if he gets a sheep killed, 1 think of this story, illustrative of the ‘way some people want to hold the rafl- road responsible for every accident, of whatever kind, that happens. Two Irishmen were driving home from town one night when their buggy ran into a ditch, overturned, and they were both stunned. When a rescuer came along and revived them the first thing one of them said was, ‘Where's the train? ‘Why, there’s no train around,’ he was told. ‘Then where’s the rail- road? ‘The nearest railroad is three miles away,” he learned. ‘Well, well,’ he commented. ‘I knew it hit us pret- ty hard, but I didn’t suppose it knock- ed us three miles from the track! "— Argonaut. The Page Between. - A New Orleans woman, well known for her work for charity, recently ac- cepted an invitation to speak at an anti-tuberculosis meeting. On the plat- form she found herself seated between a bishop and a rabbi, and the tone of the meeting seemed to be rendered ex- tremely solemn by the combination. In order to lighten the solemnity, she said, turning to the rabbi, “Do you know, I'feel as if I were a leaf be- tween the Old and the New Testa- ments.” The rabbi turned a sad eyed gaze upon her. “Yes, madam,” he said, “and, if you ‘will recall, that page is usually a blank one.” & Week - CHAS.
