All It Had Been Represented to Be. “DId you find the play to be as artis. tic as it had been reported to be?” “¥es. It was about the dullest three bours I ever lived through.” OBJECT LESSON WAS ENGUGH After the lllustration Mrs. Jones Was Able to Understand Just How It Happened. 2 Mr. Jones believed that no one need. ever fall down. It was pure careless- ness, he said. Anyone who walked straight, and did not dawdle round, was in no danger of losing his balance. He said so to Mrs. Jones many times, but she only smiled in a provoking way. i One bitter cold January morning he changed his mind. Everything out- doors had a coating of ice. The path leading from the barn to the house | was smooth as glass and = slanted treacherously on either hand. On one side of it was an old cellar, where the house had once stood. Jones was com- ing from the barn, after doing the morning chores, with a pail of milk in each hand. He was just opposite the cellar when—zzzt!—out flew his feet and down he went on his back. The next instant he had slid in a shower of milk over the edge of the cellar hole, and landed on the bottom with a thump that fairly took away his breath. He looked round in a dazed way for a moment, and then crawled to his feet. After making reasonably sure that none of his bones were broken, he climbed out and went limping into the house to tell his wife. “Matilda! Matilda!” he “Come out here!” Obediently she came. “Why, Hiram, what has happened? Are you hurt?” ghe exclaimed, startled. “Yes,” answered Jones. “I fell down that old cellarway. Come here and Tl show you.” Mrs. Jones followed her husband gingerly. “See, Matilda,” he said, as he reach- ed the spot and turned, “I stood right here like this when—" Once more Jones’s feet flew up, and in precisely the same manner as be- fore he landed in the bottom of the cellar. Silence reigned while Mrs, Jones gazed at the spot where hep husband had stood. Then she sawa his head appearing over the top of the bank. “Hiram,” she said, “you needn’t ex- plain any further. I understand ex- actly how it was done.” But Hiram'’s answer was a thorough- ly flltempered grunt—Youth’s Com- panion. called, Her Prayer Answered. ‘The vicar of Brixton, Isle of Wight, paid, in church the other day, that a woman, on his advice, knelt at the altar in his church recently and prayed that her two soms. in Canada, trom whom she had not heard for a long time, might write to her. -Soon after- ward her sons sent her a cablegram, And a letter followed, stating that they had suddenly felt impelled to send @& message home, Tax on Bachelors In Hungary, A curlous tax was recently intro- luced in Nagyper Rata, Hupgary, to e levied on bachelors: over 24.
