The steeplejack leads a merry life,
and sometimes a short one. He like
to play witli death, and sometimes for
the amusement of the spectators hit
low he will stand on his heal or ex
tend himself by his anus at two hun
dred feet from the montul. but he Is
net quite as iareles as he looks.
He never mover a hand er a foot with
out knowing exactly where he is ko
Iiik to put it. l.onu habit has dis
ciplined every muscle. An ordinary
man is subject to involuntary move
ments the iineonsciiius leltectloiis of
external stimuli. When he hears a
noise he starts: if anythlm; drops on
his lingers he jerks theni awav. That
would be fatal In the business of
steeple elimbluu. If the steeple jack
should Jump when he heard a noise, or
snatch away the hand that supported
him if a hammer fell on it, he would
make his next trip In an ambulance.
With him every movement is under
control of his will. He knows the
slretiKtli (if every bolt and every rope
to which he is to trust his weight, and
still with all his precautions he ts
continually in the shadow of death.
While Kome men hunt for danger on
the heights others look for it In the
depths. The naked native who dives
for pearls In the Vermilion i-ea or on
the banks of Ceylon la in peril from
sharks, devil tlsh and the revolt of
outraged nature, that sends the Mood
gushing trcm ears to nose when the
limit of endurance la crowded too far.
Hut his risks are trivial compared
with those taken by the clvilired diver
who penetrates the abysses of the s. a
for day-wages. His life Is absolutely
dependent upon uninterrupted com
munication with his helpers above. Not
only the shark and the devil tlsh, but
the smallest creature that can cut his
air hose may sentence him to a death
that no human power can avert. He
winds through tho tortuous recesses
of sunken hulks, trailing his life line
and air hose behind him, and if one of
them tHiiglcs Itself about a splinter or
a clump of clinging seaweed the diver
may Join the ghastly company of skel
etons, grinning at him In the cabin of
the w reck. There is no chain" for hla
tn save himself by swimming If any
thing goes wrong. Anchored down by
his copper helmet and eighty pounds
of lead In his shoes, he must wait for
the last judgment whore his broken
air pipe leaves him.

Why Professor Advocated Changes In
College Curriculum.
"Orntlcmen," said tho college presi
dent to his confreres at the annual
meeting of the Amalgamated Associa
tion of Advanced Kducators, "gentle
men. I have a novel Idea to suggest to
yon."
'Nothing Chlcagoosquo. I hope?"
raid tho editor from tho roast.
No." said the first speaker. "It It
something, decidedly practical."
I object," cried the chief subscrip
tion gatherer from the city on the
lakes.
"The objection Is turned down."
said th chairman. "Proceed,
biothor."
"My scheme." raid the first speaker.
"Is bi add an extra course to the usual
curriculum. I would er.il it the football
course, and devote the first six weeks
of Hie collcyc year to It."
"Hood." said the president from New
Jersey.
"It would bo an optional course,"
the first speaker continued, "and those
who didn't take it up would have noth
ing to do save to look on while the
others demonstrated their familiarity
with tho study. Then I would have
the regular academic course begin on
I ie. 1."
"And why," inquired the advanced
educator from tho far south, "and
why do yen sur-gest this change?"
"Hecause." replied the first speaker,
"because there's nothing doing In the
old school until the whistle blows on
the last half of the last game of the

Whereupon the educators adjourned
to think it over.
HIS PLEA A FAILURE.
Senator's Efforts to Boom Western

Washington IVst. the young Hmisler

alighted rr. r.i the traiu at Alva. Okla.,
(lining his late southwestern trip, he
was grasped by the hand, and some
one exclaimed;
"Well, Senator, do you know where
I saw you tho last time? In a settler's
wagon over near Ulghton, Kan., bv

"I wrote the first boom cln-ular for

"Flourishing community now?"
asked those who had heard the sena

"No," he replied with a dejected air
that would discourage a triple state

Not a Mere Chat.
Secretary Root Invited two men who
know much about the Philippines to
breakfast with him at the Arlington a
day or two ago. so they might have a
talk about the archipelago. The sec
retary was absent minded when lis
came down stairs and he went to the
dining room and breakfasted alone.
Then he came out into the lobby and
fiund his two friends waiting.
"Why. good morning." said the sec
retary. "Come right aicng to the office
and we can talk matters over."
The two men thought this meant
that the secretary wanted to have a
short talk with them before bronkfan
anu'they went along without protest.
When they reached the office they sat
down and talked until 2 o'clock. Then
the secretary H anked them and bade
them good-hy. Five minutes later two
hungry men dashed madly Into the
nearest res' am ant and ordered nearly
everything in sight. Next day Secre
tar Km t romomliored and spent half
the forenoon hunting up his friends
and apo'.ogixing profusely.
Paddy Found the Third.
A London meohar.ie, with tho Inten
tion of enjoying a practical Joke,

the dead wall opposite to hia work
shop. I'mler these figures ho had
written in large letters: "When shall
we three meet acaln?"
The idea of this, it need hardly b
explained, was to presuppose that
whoever siould stand to read the In
scription waa tho third donkey. Ho
then retired to his shop, fnun which
ho could see how tho bait would lake.
It waa not long until a man com
ing by stopped and stood gazing in
perplexity at tho two donkeys and the
inscription. The mechanic was elated
at tho manner In which hia brilliant
joke had worked. He burst Into a fit
:f loud and hearty laughter, whirh
soon, however, subsided when the
man quietly turned round and scorn
fully exclaimed:

He waa dining at a foreign hotel,
when a detect ivo approached and
said:
"Keg pardon, sir. I am In search of

trouble you for your passport
matter of form."
"Hut do I look like a convict?"
"Possibly not. fir. Still, 1 shall re
Quire to see tho passport."
The Englishman, tn his annoyance,
snatched up tho bill of tare from the
table, thrust it tn the dettctlve's haud,
and exclaimed:

A Ntw Scissors Feat
Take a pair of scissors tnot too
large) and hang thorn on your little
firf.ee. as shown In Fig. 1.
The trick Is to throw t.iom upward
and toward you In such a manner that
when you have brought the backs of
your hands together the blades will be
point !..g upward, as In Fig. S.
This Is another of those seemingly
simple tricks, but a key is required to
unlock If. as you will find by repeated
experiment before it Is given you.
When you have bung the scissors
as explained above, simply throw them
upward and toward you. with the
hands hold open and placed together
In such a way fiat when the scissors
reach them they (the scissors! will

FLAGS OF FRANCE AND RUSSIA.

Above are two of tho flags of 1
France; the first, tho standard of
Charles tie Sixth, being a very old j
flag, while the other la the modern !
French tricolor.
The flag shown hero Is one which 1
was in use in the 14th century. It is j
blue, with yellow tleur-dolj s.
The well known tricolor of France
dates from the French revolution, and
can.e into existence in ITS'.i. It has.
except for a short period, been the flag
of Fiance for ever a century, although
it underwent a few changes before It
settled down to its resent form.

Faithful Dog's Reward.

alarm when fire started In his master's
big stable.
Fifty cows and ton horses were tn
tho stable, and It has been Prince's
duty to guard them. When he swelled

rescued the horses and cows. The
building was destroyed.
Novel Spelling Match.
Line up tho players In a somtel"ele
rd let the person at the head give the
first letter of a word say. "IV think

thinking of "dunce." say "u." The

very quick, finishes the complete word
with another "I." Ho ts then sent

one finishing a word comes below
him.
Tho object ts to keep trom tdrilng
the letter which finishes a word. It
takes some Ingenuity to do this. Su;

may say "c" for "quack," and there Is
no getting out or It for the next one,
a nothing bi t "k" can be added.
Supposing, though, that the fourth
thinks of "Quaker" and says "o," and
Is at once sort to the foot, os he baa

Where the Wind Comes From.
How many boys and girl know how
to find tho direction ot tho wind? Of
course, tr it were blowing a gale any
one could tell, but suppose only a gen
tle breoie were stirring -hardly
enough to make the fickle weather
cock decide which way to point then
what would you do?
In such n ease a woodman or hunter
will thrust one finger Into his month,
wetting It well, and then hold It up
In the air. Tho side whlcn fools cold
est show from which direction the
wind comes. The reason of this la
plain, tho more rapid movement of the
air from one direction causes the
moisture on that side of tho finger to
dry more quickly, thus giving the sen
sation of lCOlllCS8.
