E, A. Barker. ; ‘| & failure. So when at a certain point | " Some Theatrical Jjokes. In a performance of ‘‘Ihe Lady of the Lake' the actor who took the part of Roderick Dhu was known. to be in pecuniary difficulties. When Roderick gave the line, “I am Roderick Dhu,” Fitzjames responded, “Yes, and your reat’s due too.” On the production of a plece called “The Spy” the early acts showed that it was going to prove a character had to rush on and shout, “Five hundred pounds for the spy!’ the author-actor, who was concealed behind a rock, arose and cried, “It's! yours — copyright, manuscript and| parts!” That was the end of the per: formance. ‘When eating takes place on the stage, the temptations to play tricks with the food are naturally great. In “Henry V.” the leek which that inimi- table braggart Pistol has to eat Is usually made from an apple. But on one occasion at Sadler's Wells the Fluellen of the evening gave him a real onion, and he had no choice but to struggle through it, though the tears' coursed down his fat cheeks.— Cornhill Magazine. Saved His Goldfish. ‘When a Bavarian peasant treats him- self to a new hat, he does not throw the old hat away. He just puts the new hat on top of the old one. The other day an amusing scene was wit- nessed at the Munich railway station. A peasant who had bought a new hat and a bowl containing several goldfish found himself hustled by the crowd surging at the entrance to one of the platforms. In the crush the bowl was broken, and the fish fell out. .For a moment the peasant knew not what to do. Suddenly he made up his mind. He snatched his two hats from his head, and, picking up the lively fish, he put them inside the old hat, which he then filled with water at the near- est water tap. “Carrying the improvised aquarium, the ingenious peasant en- tered his train smilingly, but very care- fully.—Munich Cor. London Globe. Facing a Waterspout. ‘What it means to encounter a water- spout in the south seas is described by Beatrice Grimshaw: “First of all, a black trunk, like an elephant’s, began to feel blindly about in midair, hang- ing from a cloud. It came nearer and nearer with uncanny speed, drawing up to itself as it came a colossal cone of turbulent sea until the two joined together in an enormous black pillar some quarter of a mile broad at the base and probably a good thousand feet high, uniting as it did the clouds and the sea below. Across the darken- ing sea, against the threatening copper crimson sunset, came-this gigantic hor- | ror, waltzing over troughs of torn up water in a veritable dance of death, like something blind, but.mad and cruel, trying to find and shatter our fragile little ship.” A Gladstone Bull. Mr. Gladstone dearly loved a joke, even at his own expense, and he pos- sessed considerable mimetic powers. He was once guilty of an amusing bull in a debate on the question of dis- establishment. Dilating on the hold held on the affections of the people by the Church of England, he said: “When an Englishman wants to get married, to whom does he go? To the parish priest. When he wants- his child baptized, to whom does he go? To the parish priest. When he wants to get buried, to whom does he go?” The house answered with a roar of laughter, in which M¥. Gladstone him- self joined, adding, “As I was con- trasting the English church with the Irish, a bull is perhaps excusable:” His Punishment. It was beginning to rain, and a man who was on the point of starting for church discovered that there wasn’t an umbrella in the house fit for use. “You can borrow one from the T—s next door,” suggested his better half. “They never go to church.” “No, Laura,” he answered with firm- ness. “It is wrong to borrow umbrel- las on Sunday. I shall punish myself for my carelessness by not going to church this morning.” Man and a Carpet. Clara—I'll give you a conundrum. Why is a man like a carpet? Tom—I glve it up. Clara—Well, he’s no sooner down than people walk all over him. Tom—Oh, pshaw! Man is totally un- like a carpet, for the more dust he has the less likely he is to get the shake.— Nlustrated Bits. A Very Mad Dog. A little girl came running to tell about a mad dog she had seen. “We saw a mad dog!” she gasped, but the ‘words seemed too tame to do justice to the situation. “Oh, he was mad, mad!” she added, frowning and pumping her fists. “He was furious!"—Harper’s Weekly. * A Thinking Part. The Old One—In adopting a theat- rical career you are entering a touchy and jealous profession. Keep guard over your tongue. The New One—Oh, T've found out that I'll have ample op- portunity to think before I speak!— Puck. Were Nagged by Their Wives.

Robuked. “Yaas,” sald Chelly Silley, “she was out when T called, but I hope for bet- tah luck next time”” = “How ungallant of you!” exclaimed Miss Knox. “You should wish her the |° good luck.”—Exchange. His Rising Day, “He never did rise in the world till he stumbled over a lot o' dynamite,” the village gossip sald, “an’ even then, "like so many men In the risin’ busl- ness, he never did know what he riz fer!”—Atlanta Constitution. = Health Recipe, One time a man asked the poet Long- fellow how to be healthy, and this is the answer he received: i £ " They Wero Good Eaters. One dny Di. Normnan McLeod, who was a large and healthy man, and one of his burly elders went.to pay a visit to a certain Mvs, MacLaren of the congregation who lived over the Scotch hills. She was a frugal ‘woman, but since she knew that a call from these two meant that they would stay to supper, too, she determined that they phould have the best In the house. 8o she piled the table with jellies and jam and preserves and shortbread and all the delicacies of the season, and, the journey having been long, they partook unsparingly, and after the meal the elder said to her: “Mrs. MacLaren, kirk Sunday?” “Oh, aye,” she said, “I was.” “And what did you think of the treatment of the miracle?” The ser- mon had been on the loaves and fishes. “I thought it was good,” said Mrs. MacLaren. “And what is your idea on the sub- Jject, Mrs. MacLaren?” persisted the minister. “Losh,” said their hostess suddenly, “Im thinkin’ that if you and the elder had bin in the congregation there wadna bin twelve baskets of frag- ments for the disciples to gnthi?r up!” were you at the Maintaining His Argument. One night at Brooks’ when Coke was present Fox, in allusion to something that had been said, made a very dis- paraging remark about government powder. Adam, attorney general to the Prince of Wales, who heard it, con- sidered it a “personal reflection and sent Fox a challenge. At the time ap- pointed Fox went out and took his sta- tion, standing full face to his adver- sary. Fitzgerald pointed out to him that he ought,to stand sideways. *“What does it matter?” protested Fox, “I am as thick one way as the other!” The signal to fire was given. Adam fired, but Fox did not. His seconds, greatly excited, told him that he must fire. “I'll be — if I do!” said Fox. *“1 have no quarrel.” Whereupon the two adversaries advanced to shake hands. “Adam,” said Fox complacent- ly, “you’d have killed me if it hadn’t been for the badness of government powder.”—London Bellman. The Sausage. The sausage dates back to the year 897. It Has been asserted that the Greeks in the days of Homer manufac- tured sausages, but this - prehistoric mixture had nothing in common with our modern product. The ancient so called sausage was composed of the same materials which enter into the makeup of the boudin of the French market and the blood pudding of the French Canadian. The ancient sausage was enveloped “in the stomachs of goats. It was not until the tenth cen- tury that sausage made of hashed pork became known. It was in or near the year 1500 that, thanks to the introduc- tion into Germany of cinnamon and saffron, the sausages of Fraukfort and Strassburg acquired a universal repu- tation. Insect Contrivance. As Dr. Darwin was walking one day in his garden he perceived a wasp upon the gravel walk with a large fly nearly as big as itself which it had caught. Kneeling down, he distinetly saw it cut off the head and abdomen and then, taking up with its feet the trunk or middle portion of the body, to which the wings remained attached, fly away. But a breeze of wind, acting on the wings of the fly, turned round the wasp with its burden and impeded its progress. Upon this 1t alighted again on the gravel walk, deliberately sawed off first one wing and then the other and, having thus removed the cause of Its embarrassment, flew off with its booty. Gambetta’s Lost Eye. Gambetta, the French patriot, had but one eye. How he came to lose the other in childhood is told by a writer: “It appears that Gambetta had such a dislike to going to school that he said to his father that unless he were taken from school he would poke one of his eyes out. His father insisted on his re- maining on at school, whereupon Gam- betta did as he had threatened to do, and on his father remonstrating with him he said that if his father sent him back again to school he would poke the other eye out. Such a determined character was he that his father had finally to give way to him.” He Deserved the Watch. A little boy who had been promised a watch in a too indefinite future thowed a tendency to revert to the subject with a frequency which finally overcame the patience of his irate fa- ther. “If you say ‘watch’ again in my presence I'll thrash you!” was the ulti- matum. Next morning at prayers, when each member of the family offered a Bible verse, the boy demurely gave his as he fixed his parent with his eye and repeated, “What I say unto you I say unto all, Watch!” 5 A Woman’s Face. " No words can express the almost - pine love and tenderness and the per- fect trust and happiness of that girl wife’s face as she looked into the eyes of her husband—and smiled. Other holiday impressions may grow dim and fade away, but that sweet woman’s face remains stamped on my memory Corever.—Wynne in London Reader. Ungrammatical Justice. “Prisoner at the bar,” said the mag- istrate, “for the crime of overspeeding you will pay afine of $10 or be-took to jail for ten days.” “That’s fiot a correct sentence,” mur- mured the prisoner. — Philadelphta Ledger.
