Try this some evening when you want to Handy Ways of a Husband “When you have time, George,” said Mrs. Andrews one evening, “I wish you would put up that shelf in the kitchen.” “It is so hard to do anything after dark,” sighed her husband. “If you can wait till Saturday afternoon I'll do it then.” “That's what you said last week,” Mrs. Andrews remonstrated. “I wait- ed till Saturday and then you said you would put up the shelf when you fin- ished reading the paper. By that time you had forgotten it.” “Well, then, I suppose it's up to me to do it now,” he said. “Where's the shelf?” “Out in the kitchen. help?” “You needn't stir,” he said, gener- ously. “I can do it, all right.” Do you need In a few minutes after he disap- peared his wife heard his apologetic tones. “I'm sorry to bother you,” he said, “but where do you want that shelf?” His wife could not count the num- ber of times she had told him she wanted it put up over the sink, but she went patiently and indicated the Place with her finger. “Oh, seems to me you did say some- thing about that,” he acknowledged. “It won't take me a minute, so you needn't bother to wait when you're so tired.” She went back to her sewing and had taken several stitches before he called again, “Say, do you know where the mischief the hammer's gone to?” “It is in the tool drawer,” she an- swered. “That is, unless you've had it since I put it away.” “It isn’t there,” he cried, triumphant- ly. “I've already looked there.” Mrs. Andrews went out to the kitch- en and hunted for the missing ham- mer. “It beats all how things get lost in this hou he said. “That girl is the limit. IUs sheer carelessness.” “That's what I’ve always said,” Mrs. Andrews agreed, sweetly, as she fished the hammer out from under the stove. “Here it is.” The husband had the grace to laugh, “That time I was stung,” he said. “I used the hammer this morning to pound a nail im my shoe and I re- member my foot struck it as I left the Toom, so I must have kicked it under the stove. Where are the nails?” “Aren't screws better?” “Screws!” he exclaimed. “In that wood? Nothing but long nails would hold that shelf. T haven't the slightest idea where there are any.” Mrs. idrews found the nails and went bi to her work. “Alice!” her husband called pres- ently. “Would you mind holding the shelf while I pound?” She went out again and held it while he hammered away for dear life. She wats also properly sympathetic when t ills bent. “There seems to be a confounded beam in the way,” he said. “T'll have to bore holes first. You go and sit down and I'll call you when I need help.” He was as good as his word, for she Was scarcely seated when she was summoned again. “Po you know where the bit is?” he asked. “T've been hunting an age for it.” She opened the tool drawer and took it out. be livened up.

It must have been under that box. It's very hard to find anything with the box of nails in there.” She had sewed a full seam when she looked up and saw him standing in the doorway “You were quiet,” she said. “T didn’t hear you do much hammering.” “I had to give it up.” he told her “Those nails are worthless and | knocked quite a bit of plaster down trying to make them stay in. I'll get better nails and put it up some other time.” When his wife had taken care of the tools and sent for the girl to sweep up the plaster she finished her sewing without so much as a reference to the shelf. Indeed, it was not mentioned again for six weeks. Then Andrews spoke of it himself. “Great Scott!” he cried, aghast. “I'l! put up that shelf at once. I never thought of it till I put my hand into my pocket just now and found the nails I bought.” “Never mind,” she said. “You are pretty tired to-night, and anyhow Bertha and I put up that shelf with screws six weeks ago.” Avoiding Infection of Milk, In order to eliminate all danger of infection from dirty milk bottles, and to place the distribution of whole milk on a strictly sanitary basis, the New York milk committee, in its seven in- fants’ milk depots, is using for the first time in New York city a single service paper milk bottle, which it instructs its patrons to throw away as soon as it is emptied of milk.—Scientific American. % Dess a-cryin’ fer his daddy, till dey isn't any rest, En I hush ‘tm en I soothe "im, but he ack lak he possessed, He's a runnin’ ter de winder en he's look- in' down de street, En he lissen In de ebenin’ fer de trompin 0’ his feet— En dey ain’ no way ter stop ‘im, fer he keep on night en day Dess a-cryin’ fer his daddy—en his daddy gone away, W'en he sittin’ at de table, den he see his daddy's place En de heart-break come en quiver tn de N'l.feller's face, Eu he. ‘low he won't eat nuffin’, en he push away his plate Dess as ef his daddy comin’ ef he on'ly sit en walt, En I try ter tell it ter ‘Im dess de bes way dat I can But he such a li'l feller dat he dess cain unnahstan’, En sometimes he sit en study, dess a- lookin’ at de wall— But he lookin’ way beyon’ it lak {t isn't lah at all, rk at me, cu'ious, wid dem grea big eyes o' his, % En I know he axin’, axin’, all de time whah daddy is!

That Man Again, The man with the incandescent whiskers comes in and as usual ap- proaches the desk of the pale hireling with the patched typewriter, “I've just thought of a dandy,” he says. “What is the difference between a man who is riding a bay horse in his pajamas at noon and a boy who fs cut- ting across lots with a watermelon?” “Does a bay horse wear pajamas?” asks the peevish hireling. “Certainly not.” “But you said the man was riding a bay horse in his pajamas.” “The man’s pajamas is what | mean.” “Why did he put his pajamas on the horse?” “He didn’t.” “You said so.” “I didn't. The question is—” “If a man puts his pajamas on a horse and goes riding at noon it seems to me—" “The man didn’t put his Pajamas on the horse. He—” “What was the man’s name? Was the boy any kin to him?” “Oh, that has nothing to do with the case whatever. The boy is just sup- poséd to—” “You didn’t say it was a Suppositious case. You said—” “Never mind, sir. you the answer.” And he fs gone. And dreamily over the distant hills the sad, sad wind breathes its throb- bing monotone fo the dying day, while the little lights are twinkling in the village far below. —— More Satisfactory. “Yes,” said the man with the incan- descent beard, “I have lost a good deal of money, off and on. | have bought ‘gold bricks and | have monkeyed with Wall street,” “Is there any difference?” asked the man with the aggressive nose. “Sure.
