Occasion- ally, when excited, he uses a word that is seldum heard in this city, but gen- erally his speech is correct in syntax and orthoepy. “I was made homesick today,” he said, “when I saw a word I often heard in my youth, but which is seldom used | {n the North, It was the word ‘tote.’ | Some man who does busin on the cash and carry plan has ned his store the ‘U-tote Service.

We carry a horse to water, carry a girl to church or home therefrom.

Horse Rode on Cowcatcher. A tall story was brought into New Westminster, B. C., by the crew of an @lectric railw train, Fraser Valley branch. They said tnat as they wait ed_at the “Y” for a westbound C. N, R. freight to get on to the bridge they saw a horse jump off the coweatcher of the c. N. R. locomotive. It ran down the B.C. elec railway track toward their train, halted until the C. N.

The story goes @ to say that the freight had run through a band of horses at Hope and this one had been riding on the cow- catcher for several miles. Red-Beaked Sparrows Pets.

Ob- scure youths with a flair for popular ditties are suddenly showered with gold. Broadway welcomes them with open arms. In the dazzling new world the gleaners of the White Way are soon on the trail, O. O. McIntyre writes in the New York Mail. Four composers whose tunes were whistled in every city and hamlet have in the last few days fallen upon evil days. Still another—the compos- er of 50 successful songs—died friend- less in the charity ward of the bleak Blackwell island charity hospital. It is possible to count on the fingers of one hand song writers who have made fortunes and kept them. The two most noted examples are Irving Berlin and Gene Buck. The Society of Authors, Composers and Publish- ers has voted donations amounting to $1,500 to indigent composers during the last month, The money comes suddenly and Broadway has its hail fellows who are ever ready to aid in the spending, There are quite a few composers and lyricists who have dashed off a song in a publishing house in a single after- noon and received royalties of more than $50,000. Because of this miracle they believe that they can do the same thing al- most any afternoon they gather around the plano. The truth ts that no composer has more than four dis- tinct song hits. A hit, incidentally, is not a mere successful song. It means that the sales must amount to more than 100,006 copies. BLOW AFFECTS THE NERVES Sudden Shock to Brain Causes Sensa- tion Known to Many of Us as “Seeing Stars.” Each of the five senses has its spe clul set of nerves through which sen- sutions are recorded in the brain. With the exception of the nerves of touch, which extend to all parts of the body, these perforin special functions for certain individual organs, the nerves of sight being connected with the eyes, those of smell with the nose, those of taste with the mouth, and those of hearing with the ears. Whenever the brain receives a sud- den shock, such as would follow a blow on the head, the vision nerves are disturbed in such a way as to pro- duce the effect of seeing flashes of light, or “stars.” The sensitive eye-nerves cannot be Jarred without producing this effect of light, while a severe blow will often react in a similar manner on the nerves of h ing, thus leading the person who is struck to Imagine that he ts listening to unusual noises, Fresh Water tn the Sea. A spring of fresh water, which wells up through the sea off Elbury cove, Churston Ferrers, in Torbay, off the British coast, is attracting a large num- ber of visitors. This is the best time of the year to locate the spring, and yachts are being anchored at the spot, so that visitors may taste the water. The real source has never been found. It is surmised that the waters from the rainfall near Elbury and the northern hills finds a course in the same valley, and then forces Itself up through the sea at a distance of 90 to 100 yards off the beach. The circular space of the fresh wa- ter is plainly visible from the rocks, and the white pebbly beach at all Stages of the tide. Preparedness. In one of the Southern states the ne- groes are great patrons of a matri- monial agency. One darky, anxious to find a wife for his son, went to this agent, who handed him a list of lady clients, Running through this the man came upon his own wife’s name, en- tered us desirous of obtaining a hus- band between the ages of twenty-eight and thirty. Forgetting about his son the darky hurried home to announce his discov- ery to his wife. She was not at all disturbed. “Yes,” she said. “I done give him my name. I puts it down when you was so sick In de winter and de doctor he says we must prepare for de worst,”—Saturday Evening Post. Cumulative Effect. Some years ago there sat as a mem- ber of the state legislature in Colorado 4 quaint character known as Uncle Boggs. In a speech delivered by one of the members a gentleman of the other party was hotly assailed, the lat- | ter, however, disdaining to reply to the castigation. The speaker concluded his remarks by pointing to the object | of his attack: “There he sits, Mr. Speaker—there he sits, mute, silent and dumb!” “Yes Mr. Speaker,” interrupted Um cle Boggs, “and he isn't suying a word.”—Pittsburg Leader. | Some Shot.
