A Reassuring Truth. A 1ady on one of the ocean liners who seemed very much afrald of.ice- bergs asked the captain what would happen in case-of a collision. The captain replied, “The iceberg would move right along, madam, just as If nothing had happened.” And the old lady seemed greatly relleved.—Suc- cess. 8o Bad as That! A young medical student who was calling upon a girl volunteered to sing and help entertain the company which arrived unexpectedly. At the end of his second solo he turned to the young lady and remarked: “I am thinking of taking vocal lessons. Do you know of a good teacher?” “Yes, indeed,” was the quick reply, “I know the very one for you. Here Is his address,” and she scribbled the name on a card, giving it to the stu- dent. Next @ay he called up the teacher by telephone: “Is this Instructor of ‘vocal music?” “The what?” was the answer. “The vocal teacher?” was repeated. “Naw,” came the reply, “I don’t teach nothing. I file saws"—Ladles’ Home Journal, Most Northern Canada. Of the possibilities of extreme north- ern Canada a traveler writes: “The country that one passes through from Athabasca Landing down to the Arctie Red river s full of vegetation and will, in my opinion, one day be settled. In all the mission gardens at the different posts that I passed I saw wheat and barley growing, potatoes, lettuces, tur- nips, carrots and every kind of vegeta- ble that one grows in one’s own garden at home. The country is thickly tim- bered near the banks of the river, and there are few places in which you do not find large patches of prairle. You pass by a great outrush of natural gas, and ofl 18 oozing out for miles along the river bank.” A Sense of Propriety. ¥So you stole this man's ax?’ said the judge. “Yessah. I reckons dar aln' no use tryin’ ter spute de facts.” “What did you do that for? He sald he would have been perfectly willing to lend you the ax.” “Yes; but you see, jedge, dat man’s on'y jes’ moved in de neighborhood. 1 doesn’ know him wel enough ter go ‘roun’ ter his house borryin’."—Wash- ington Star. Hard to Say. “If your mother bought four baskets of grapes, the dealer’s price belng a quarter a basket, how much money ‘would the purchase cost her?’ asked the new teacher. “You never can tell,” answered Tom- my, who was at the head of his class. “Ma’s great at bargaining!”—Ladles’ Home Journal. 4 Accepted. s “Quills has had a story accepted at Iast,” remarked a journalist to a col- league. “Surely not,” was the rejoinder, “Yes. He went home at 2 o'clock this morning with an awful yarn, and his wife believed it.” A Blg Door. The following is a copy of a bil posted on the wall of a country vil- lage In England: “A lecture on total Misjudged. A Scotsman was traveling in a third :class smoking carriage on a mnorth 'of Bngland line when at a small station 8 fishwife with a creél opened the door. Not relishing the prospect of such company, the Scotsman sald fn his smoothest tones, “Ah, this is s smoking carriage, my good womanf* The fishwife took no notice, but pushed in. “My good woman, this is a smok ing carrlage,” repeated the male pas senger in louder tones. The fishwife put her creel in the corner and sat down opposite to him, and the traln started. Then the woman put her hand in a pocket of her blue petticoat; took out a large black pipe, lit it, and, blowing a cloud of rank smoke thaf nearly suffocated her companion, re- marked, “And so, my mannie, ye thocht naebody could tak' a draw bui yersel'™ The Bite of a Dog. “I want to say a few words about hydrophobia,” said a physician. “When an animal bites through clothing there 1s little or no danger of infection. The virus is on the teeth of the animal and when the person bitten has received the wound through a layer of clothing there is little danger. “The virus on the teeth is left in the clothing and is not commanicated to the person bitten. Rabid dogs or other animals are not llke reptiles. They have no hollow teeth through which poison may be communicated. It must be introduced directly into the system of the vietim. “Therefore, when a supposedly rabid dog bites a person, if the bite 1s not on an exposed part of the body he should have no fear.”—Washington Post. Bees and Their Baskets. Every bee carries his market basket around his hind legs. Any ome ex- amining the body of a bee through a microscope will observe that on the hind legs of the creature there is a fringe of stiff hairs on the surface, the hairs approaching each other at the tips, so as to form a sort of cage. This 1s the bee's basket, and into it, after a successful journey, he will cram enough pollen to last him for two or three days. Gray and the Elegy. Thomas Gray kept the elegy by him for nine years before he gave it to the ‘world. He polished away at it all those years as a lapidary polishes a gem, and the result was he made it a gem. In his whole life he wrote comparatively little, and when asked why he had written so little he replied, ‘“Becatse of the exertion it costs in the labor of composition.” As Others See Us. “Mem-sahib,” asked a young Hast In- @lan girl of her English mistress, “why do you wear those sad colors? I don't liké them.” “I am In mourning, Lattoo. It is the custom of English ladles.” “But black i8 the color of night, mem- sahib, and yet you belleve that when you die you go to heaven at once. Then why not be glad for your friends who dle and wear colors such as we see in birds and flowers and falling water when the sun shines? God doesn’t make your colors.
