Vesperman, Auctioneer. L. A. Clark. Clerk. II I Patriarchal Turtle. A mud tu tle, said to be 180 years ©ld, has been in an Albany (N. Y.) family 65 years. Wrinkled skin, broken shell and twisted claws indi cate its old age. It is very friendly with the house cat and night finds them under the stove with the turtle’s ’ head on the cat’s paws. ' ©mw ©Sis T A Better Test. The man is lying in a seemingly lifeless condition. “I can find no jpulse whatever,” says the physician who has been summoned. “Bring a looking-glass. We will place it against his lips and see if his breath, is still in him.” “Pardon me, doctor,” suggests a bosom friend of the unfortunate man; “perhaps a wineglass would work bet ter with him.”—Judge’s Library. Her Probable Future. “He drinks heavily.” “I know it.” “He gambles.” “I am going to marry him to reform him.” “My girl, listen to me. Try one ex periment before you do that.” “What experiment?” “Take in a week’s washing to do, and see how you like it.” How He Got It. “How did you get that fine spring overcoat?” “I had a sure tip on a horse race.” “I never knew one of those sure tips to pan cut.” “Neither did I. So I didn’t play it. Put the money into an overcoat in stead.” The Critic. “Look at those flowers: Aren’t they beautiful? They are so round and regular that one might almost think they were artificial.” “They are artificial.” “Are they? You don’t say so! Why, one might think they were natural.”— Lippincott’s. PROOF. Joax —When my boy gets older I’m sure he’ll write a successful historical novel. Hoax —Why? Joax —He thinks George Washing ton discovered the tlnited States. A Statesman’s Prudence. He paused amid the talk he heard. Quoth he, “I shall refrain, Since he who never says a word Has nothing to explain.” Ungentiemaniy. He —The great trouble with Gab leigh is that he talks too much. She —That’s strange. When he’s been with me he’s scarcely said a word. He —Oh, he’s too r»uch of a gentle man to interrupt.—Tit-Bits. Mere Spacious. Madame —This flat would suit us very well but for this room, vhich is so small. Concierge—lt would do for one child, madame. Madame —It isn’t a question of a child, but of my hat boxes. —Pele Mele. Polite Assurance. “Mr. Conductor, do you think this tunnel is perfectly safe for our travel?” “Don’t be afraid, madam. Our con> pany got you in this hole, and we’re bound to see you through.” The Worst Variation. Marks —It seems to me your new house doesn’t look much like the ar chitect’s design. Parks —No, but it looks more like it than the actual cost looks like the original estimate. Her Recommendation. Eben —Say, Cyrus, is it true ye’re a-goin’ to marry Sam Jones’ widow? Cyrus—Why shouldn’t I, Eben? Sam always seemed to find her pretty sat isfactory.—Harper’s Bazar. Hotel for Cats. A cat-lover, Walter Scott, has started a free hotel for cats at Che shire, Connecticut. Himself an inn keeper, he has fitted up a large room in the basement of his hostelry, and there homeless cats can take refuge and get three square meals a day. There are now over 100 cats in the free hotel. Mr. Scott is so satisfied | with his experiment that he is taking I steps to establish a chain of hotels for cats. Outdoor Game. A splendid way to get children out of doors is to get them interested in playing “architect.” A stony vacant lot or an open field is the playground, and the children vie with one another in gathering large pebbles, with them making “life-size” bungalow’ plans up- i on the ground. This dor_e, the peb- ! tie plans become make-believe houses for the little folks to play in. Children seem to keep up interest in this sim ple game for months.
