S I drove along the Jericho Turnpike this afternoon I came to A @ place where the two cars ahead of me attracted my atten- tion. One of them was trying to catch-the other and finally succeeded in doing so. Then they travelled along side by side for a spell, as If a conversation was being carried on from one car to the other. I was about to toot a request for room enough to pass when I saw a glass objoct (it looked to me like a flask, Mister) sail through the air from Car No, 1 to Car No. 2. There was no error to charge up against any one; perfect throw and elegant catch. © * * I came back the same way about tei: minutes Inter. The drivers were about to get going again.

KING IN NEED of a little oilcloth, and having deferred and postponed purchase until it could be delayed no longer, I went to-night to a 8-9-19-cent store on Jamaica Avenue, where the oileloth counter is far at the rear. As I approached the department I saw two clerks swinging a wash-basket between them. I thought this pecullar, and when I saw in the basket what appeared to be a big doll I was sure the two clerks had gone looney. But the doll proved to be a baby, which was just falling to sleep on a pillow made of new floor-mops. On my approach the “cradle” was tenderly lowered into a crate and a clerk was ready for me.
