Mr. Sparkish, Mr. Novel and their fellows would talk londly while the play was going on to show the superiority of | their wit to the poet’s, but they likely ‘were on hand early to lose none of the fun. In later epochs of English the- atrical history theater going was a se- rious undertaking, not a mere pastime. One can tell from the beginnings of old plays that the authors counted on audiences closely attentive from the first. Lady Randolph is the first speak- er in “Douglas,” Orestes in *The Dis- tressed Mother,” Almeira in ‘“The Mourning Bride.” The custom of “play- ing the audience in” with a short piece 'was of still later origin. Perhaps about that time the #abit of going late to the theater became common. *“Half price” for late comers was a custom of Thack- eray’s time.—Westminster Gazette. Cruikshank at Eighty. “Among the many people whose ac- quaintance I made in Richardson’s rooms was old George Cruikshank. I bappened incidentally to remark that 1 wasn’'t very well, when Cruikshank in his genial manner exclaimed: ‘What? Not well? A powerful young fellow like you ought to be ashamed of your- self to talk of being unwell! Here, let me see you do this.’ “He sprang up, took the tongs and poker from the fireplace, crossed them on the floor ke two swords and then, whistling his own air, danced a high- land sword dance with great agility and accuracy, keeping it up for at least a quarter of an hour. As he threw himself into a chair, somewhat ex- hausted by his efforts, he said, ‘Now. then, when I'm dead you can say you saw old Cruikshank when be was over eighty years of age dance the sword dance in Dr. Richardson’s room.”— From “Pages From an Adventurous Life.” Punished the Selfish One. The Bale-Geneva express, says the London Standard Geneva correspond- ent, was overcrowded the other day and several travelers had to stand in the corridors of the second class coaches. One tourist saw a seat vacant. but covered with luggage, and asked a passenger sitting near whether the seat was “occupied.” *Yes,” replied the stranger, “the man is in the restau- rant car, and will return soon.” There the matter ended wuntil the express reached Lausanne, when the owner of all the luggage prepared to get out. “Pardon me,” said the tourist, “that luggage does not belong to you,” and called the guard. The latter sided with the tourist, and the whole matter was placed before the station master. The selfish traveler had to prove, plece by plece, that the luggage on the seat belonged to him, and he finally was obliged to pay for two second class tickets. . The Charm She Wore. Many are the charms adopted by so- clety women with a graln of supersti- tion In their makeup. and one of the most unique is that worn by a young matron who spends much of her time at Atlantic City. Attention being called to her curious pendant—a polished sub- stance set in pearls and suspended from a slender gold chain—she was asked what manner of stone it might be. *Stone?’ she laughed. *It’s just plain, ordinary wood. You see, I have a most unfortunate tendency to boast. and at such times caution tells me to knock wood. Oftentimes there is no wood at hand. so all T have to do to save myself from my rashness is to tap my little locket. Simple. ain’t it?" —New York Tribune. Beautiful India. India bears the same relation to the orient that Italy does to Europe. It is the home of palaces, temples and monuments; it is the home of beautiful art work in many materials. Most of past that is seen in richly ornament- ed temples and shrines, in the tombs of its illustrious dead and in palaces that surpass in beauty of decoration |anything which Europe can boast.— “The Critic In the Orient ** i Setting Him Right, They were enoying a motor ride and had just entered a county road. “May I kiss your hand*’ he asked, a little confusedly.

A palm tree growing erect on the sea- shore represents the strength of the fort, while at its base an oak tree, torn from the ground and deprived of its branches, recalls the British fleet built of oak timber, overcome by the pal- metto.” Crocodile In a Tree. An African hunter once found a large crocodile hanging in the fork of a tree about ten feet from the ground. As the place was fully half a mile from any water it was difficult to ac- count for the crocodile’s strange posi- tion. - When questioned'about the sub- Ject the natives explained that it was put there by an elephant. It seems that when the elephants wade into the Lake Ngami to. bathe the croco- diles are in the habit of worrying them . and ' biting their .legs. -Some: times when an elephant is:annoyed beyond endurance it picks up its, tor- mentor in its trunk. places it among the branches of a tree and leaves it there.—London Graphic. 8100 Roward, $100.
