I have not seen the cha-apion ao any,box- ing yet but from what I hear he should havé cut down on his work a week ago.

IY BE “THAT ALL MY TALK ABOUT PUNCTUALTN S HAVING SOME BFFECT? THE CUCKOO CLOCK. Back In the clock the cuckoo was talking to the Tick-Tock twins, whose names are Tick and Tock. “I was greatly pleased,” said -the cuckoo bird, - “be-' cause a little girl came to lunch with the family today, and she asked if she couldn't see me when I came out. But she happened not to have her head turned this way when I did come out, 'so after lunch was all over she'was promised that she would surely see me. “So she sat and waited for some lit- tle time until I should come out. And everyone waited with her. I was much pleased and much flattered. “You see, the little ‘girl wanted so much to see me that she was willing to wait that long for me, and yet there were many other things she was to see, for the family with whom I live have many interesting ‘things to show. “So I'consider it was-a great compl- ment when they all sat and waited to see me come out of my little house and cuckoo-cuckoo for them. I came out Just a little bit after the half hour, as I always do. “That is, I come ont a little- after the half-hour striles and ‘a Httle after the hour strikes. Not very much ntter. but just a little. “I really wished T could have stayed out longer, -so the Jittle girlcould have secen me better, but I couldn’t have done that, “They say that some of the real cuckoos aren’t very popular with other birds. But, then, there are plenty of creatures not go well liked as others, “There ' are - snakes, ‘for example, which aren’t liked. I've heard folks who-came here tallk about snnkes. You see, as I'm In the dining-room I hear a great deal of conversation, for the people talk during their meals. ““Then I've heard that skunks weren't popular, because they had a very queer odor about them, but that they can't send forth that odor unless they throw their tails over their backs. “That sounds funny, but I suppose It is part of the informa- tion I pick up. You see, I don't get much, as I'm ‘out but a few scconds at a time. But, then, I'm out twice during the hour, and so I hear people talk twice during the morning, twice at noon and twice at night. “That makes six times all together. And though I have something to say every time I come out, I listen to what the others say, too. “I've heard that bees aren’t so dan- ‘Waited. gerous if: people aren’t afraid of them, | - and attack them boldly, but then I've been told that they do sting pretty badly, and it Is well to.leave them alane. “I belleve, they can sting, though, from what P've heard. “And I've heard the people say that though they-often think a day-is hor- rid‘and niuggy and warm and rainy that the plants like it as they sit out- side the’window aud have a beautiful time feeling the cool water falling on them. “I've heard that two dogs of the young lady who was married from here not long ago’were closed up-in the room when. the wedding party wag golng on, but that before = she left got out of the room. | “And. what do you suppose they aia? “When all the guests were wait- ing downstairs for the lady and her hustand to come along so they could throw rice over them, there were the two lit- tle dogs, sitting and watching her’ go. “They had wanted to wish her good luick and happiness, for she had al- ways meant good luck and happiness Watching Her. to_them, WE'LL HAVE TO A “Pock. ,lisfons. NOUL SEE, |\ COULONY SLEED \ “Yes,” saild the cuckoo from the cuckoo clock, “I get a lot of news. And I enjoy it all.! . “I'm glad I'm the cuckoo of the cuckoo' clock.” “Tick,” sald the twin named Tick. And “tock,” said the twin pamed “We are glad we belong to the clock, “Tick-Tock. “We're glad we belong to lt, too.” Their Ambition. The Hennessy twins were the trial of the kindergarten. One day, when the teacher was asking the other children what they wanted to be wheh they grew up, her eye caught the twins up to mischief, as usual, and paying no at- tention to the subject under discus- sion. ' She turned quickly and said: “Micky Hennessy, what are you boys. going to be when you grow up?” “Irishmen,” was the prompt reply.— American Boy. ODD DEVICES FOR PATENTS Curlosities That Have Been Accorded Place in the Archives of Great London Office. Some recent curiosities patented in England aré described by the Ulus- trated London News. There are two head-washing caps, one of which is an Inverted metal bowl with a rubber ring that fits it tightly to the head and a spigot by which it may be attached to 'a rubber tube; the other is a belmet-like device with an inlet for water gt the top and an outlet back on the neck. Others are an automobile for use on 1and or water. It has a propeller and a detacable hull, while - the fore wheels are encased 'ind act as a rud- der. & Then there 4s a rnnwny train “fitted with a copduit passing from the smokestack-over the roofs of the cars to the rear of the train, through which smoke, vapor and cinders are conveyed. Eor bathing the face there is a basin with a recessed end for supporting the ueck, and a detachable tube through which the bather may breathe while soaking her complexion in the water./| A protective garment for ‘motorists and- others is made of a double fabric contafning shock absorbers, in the form of hollow rubber balls. Another’ ingenious person patents a' buffer to be placed on the bows of ships so as to lessen the shock of col- Bent plates fitting the con- verging sides of the ship support heavy spiral springs projecting for~ ward to a steel plate that extends across the bows, Waterproofing Concrete. For the first coat dissoive three- quarters of a pound of castile soap in each gallon of water used as a wash for the concrete. Apply this soup- wash boiling hot with a brush. After 24 hours of drying weather apply the second coat, consisting of alum water, one-eighth pound of alum to each gal- lon of water. Apply the alum water lukewarm. The soap fills the pores and the alum hardens the soap. # Make Odd Collections. The eccentricities of collectors make amusing reading. Kate Vaughan, the famous English’ dancer, used to collect penny ‘toys. Small cannon had an at- traction for -Lord Powerscourt, while Miss Rothschild had a partiality for pipes. Dolls, women's stockings,-hang- man's ropes, and instruments of tor- ture fascinate some - collectors, while others spend time and money in ac- quiring royal relics—the handketchief on which Charles I blew his nose, the table napkin on ‘which William III wiped his hands, the téacup from which George III drank tea.—London Mall, [ Light Rallways in New.
