Telephone 373, Directing Folks In Boston. The stranger hail been searching nearly half an hour among the mys: terious cur ways of the park for Fenway street. At last the trim figure of a hurrying student attracted her eye, and she vesolved to ask for the necessary information, y “Can you tell me, please, where I'en- way street 4s?” she asked. “Yes, indeed,” answered the student. “Why, we're In it now.” : “Yes?’ The stranger looked rather helplessly around at the wealth of shrubbery, the smooth roads that seemed to lead only to Mrs. Gardner’s green roofed palace. “But I wanted to find a certain number on Fenway street.”” “Oh!” said the student, a helpless ex- pression for a moment clouding_her face. *“Do you know, there's a street down there.” She pointed a daintily gloved hand straight into a clump of elms. “[ don’t know the name of it. I never did know that it had a name. Why don’t you try that one?’—Boston Her- ald. Pretty Strong Lungs. In “Through Luzon on Highways and Byways” the author, a naval offi- cer, tells this expansive story. We vouch for the story only, not for the facts: ‘While traversing this attractive coun- | try, which offers so much to tempt tha, husbandman, we met with no sign of life until nearing a village, where could be seen native hunters after deer and carabao. The carabao furnishes a fine quality of meat and has a peculiar, instinctive trait in being the only deni- zen of the forest that can protect it- self against the boa constrictors, which are somewhat numerous in these parts ‘When the carabao is pounced upon-by the boa and the reptile has wrapped itself round the body for the squeezing process of killing the animal, the cara- bao slowly draws in its sides until the boa has his grip fixed securely and begins to tighten up, when suddenly the carabao inflates his lungs to thei fullest and spreads his sides, tearing the vertebrae of the reptile into a thou- sand pieces. How Tea Lead Is Made. Tea lead for lining tea chests Is su- perior at least from the standpoint ot cheapness to any other metal. Accoréd- Ing to an article In the Brass World, the method practiced by the Chinese in the manufacture of tea lead is to press molten lead between two flat stones. The excess of lead is melted in an iron kettle by a direct fire underneath. Rice paper is carefully smoothed down over the surface of the stones to supply a nonconductor of heat and thus pre- vent the chilling of the lead. The stones are now placed flat upon the ground and the upper one raised a short distance, with one edge resting upon the lower stone. In other words, the stones are opened like a book. A ladle full of melted lead is now poured In between the stones, and the top one Is quickly dropped. The lead is squeez- ed out until only a thin layer is left. Tea lead usually runs from .005 to .10 inch in thickness. An Untamed Marquis. The father of the Marquis of Bute had an amusing experience in the! neighborhood of Rothesay. He met a cockney traveler who asked to be di- rected to a certaln place. Deceived by the marquis’ accent, the visitor took him for a southron and took occasion to make supercilious remarks about the barbarous islanders of Bute. - He said, “Blime me, I suppose you're like me, an Englishman?” “No,” responded the marquis; “I”m a native of Bute, this island.” “Good gracious!” exclaimed the Lon- doner, in amazement. “Then who in the dooce tamed yer?” Lord Bute assumed a flerce expres- slon and, raising a ponderous cudgel he was carrying, said angrily, “Who says I'm tame?” The alarmed cock- ney turned and fled.—Pall Mall Gazette. Two Cures For the Blues. “What do you do when you have the blues?” asked the first woman. “I walk up Fifth avenue and look in all the jewelers’ windows and at the orchids and high priced hats. What do you do?’ “I go way down to Rivington street and look at the wretched poor women with seventeen children struggling in the dirt: TLit malkes me thnfilf!hfinifi affairs are no worse” — New York} Press. Its Worth.\ The actress, having boeen arrested for running her automoblle seventy miles an hour, was describing the superb car to a reporter, { The young man Inqufred; &5 “How much. did you say it was worth ?” “At least two columns on the front page,” she answeied absently.—Kan- sas City Independent. Shut ‘Her Off. First Deaf Mute (making signs)—. Did your wife complain because you stayed out till after midnight? Second Deaf Mute (chuckling)—Did she? You should bhave seen her! But when it began to get monotonous I just turned out the light. Two Questions. i “Why don’t we see men like the'nov- elists describe?” “I give it up. Why don’t we see girls like the illustrators draw?’'— Louisville Courier-Journal. Mountains Had Not Moved. The story is told that when Judge William Rogers was chairman of the school committee in a New England town one examination day he went around questioning pupils of the mid- dle grade. He asked a boy named Rock where the Rocky mountains were. The boy answered correctly, but failed to be promoted that term. The following year the judge asked the same question. Rock replied, “The same place they were last year.” The Misplaced Comma. “Some ‘lawsuits of the highest im- portance have hinged upon the right placing of a comma,” said a judge. “When I first started to practice law a Missourl editor came to me in a peck of trouble to defend him sgainst a threatened libel suit growing out of faulty punctuation. He had not meant to give some innocent young women the slightest offense when he wrote a story about ‘two young men who went with their girls to attend a lecture and after. they left, the girls got drunk.’ Putting that miserable little comma out of its right place did the work, as it made the girls the ones who became Inebriated instead of their escorts. I managed by proper diplomacy and the publication of a neat apology to stave off the damage suits, and afterward my editorial friend became an expert on punctuation.”—Baltimore American. Taunting. - Old Noah hunted up a barrel stave and started off for the stern of the ark. “Where are you going?” asked Mrs. Noah. “I am going to whale that boy Ham,” replied Noah, with a frown. “But, my dear, the lad is only play- ing on his banjo.” “Yes, but it is the tune he is play- Ing.” “And what is the tune?” ““Wait Till the Sun Shines, Lizzle.” —Chicago News. 4 Angry Adjectives. It was not a young woman novelist, but Charles Sumner, of whom the late B. L. Godkin, the New York editor, said: 7 He works his adjectives so hard that if they ever catch him alone they will murder him. Very Steady. Farmer Haye -That Jones boy that used to work for you wants me to give him a job. . Is he steady? Farmer Seede—Well, If he was any steadier he’d be motionless.—London Express. Poor Jack. Clara--Jack intends to have all his own way when we are married. Clara’s Mamma—Then why do you want to marry him? Clara—To relleve his mind of a false impression. Gave Him Up.
