ENGLAND'S BIG EVENT.
Oxford and Cambridge Have Decided
Upon Rowing Earlier Than Usual.
The rowing authorities at Oxford
and Cambridge universities have prac
tically decided upon rowing the annual
Oxford Cnmbrldge boat race, easily
England's biggest aquntlc event of the
season, considerably earlier than usual
next sprliuf. In fact, the two univer
sities are ihiout agreed upou March 12
for the race, this being fully a month
in advance of lust year's contest. The
reason why an earlier date Is con
sidered desirable this year is owing
'to tho fact that Easter comes unusual
ly earlier. On Saturday, March 12, it
will be high water at Putney at 3:20.
which would give the crews their race
about 2:30 o'clock. Both the Oxford
and Cambridge candidates have, of
course, been lu training for the race,
for several weeks already.
Separating Them.
Mr. Grubb. an elderly bachelor, ba
in? been troubled for a week or two
with a pnln In his back, went to his
doctor. The physician prescribed two
large porous plasters and told him to
cnll again in about a fortnight and re
port. Mr. Grubb complied with directions.
He went to a drug store and bought
tho plasters and after a prolonged
struggle with them in his own room
succeeded in getting them properly la
place. Being n very small man, how
ever, the two nearly covered his whole
buck. At tho end of two weeks lie
called at the physician's otllce again.
"Well, how is your back?" asked the
medical man.
"Sound as a dollar; hasn't pained
me any for ten days or more."
"Glad to hear it. You may take the
plasters oft whenever you please."
"Not much!" exclaimed Mr. Grubb,
removing his coat i iid vest, taking c!T
his collar and locking the door of the
doctor's office. "I won't touch 'em.
They're bigger than I am. What I
want you to do now, doctor, is to pull
me off the plasters."

Whatever the woe of the world may be

How to Grow Short.
If you climb a mountain your
height decreases by three-quarters
of an inch, and it may even diminis-li
exceptionally by a full inch. This
is a fact known to all experienced
mountain and Alpine climocrs. On
reaching the summit of the heights
that form tho pleasure ascents of
holiday makers in tho Alpinedis
tricts the stature of the climber is
found to have become less to the
extent already mentioned. When
the Alpinist has descended to the
ordinary level his height begins to
increase, but the normal length of
the body is not attained until sev
eral hours after reaching the regu
lar surfocs of tbt earth.
HAD HIS SUSPICIONS.
That Wae the Reason the Rabbits Did
Not Surprise Him.
Si Perkins had uever been surprised
in all his life. When it snowed in the
latter part of April he allowed he'd
sorter felt it in the air for some time,
when Jedge Abbott's barn burned Si
thought it was about time, and when
the town hall was struck by lightning
he merely shrugged his shoulders und
said he'd told 'em that them llghtulu'
rods wasn't any accouut when they
were first talkln' of puttln' 'cm up.
Mrs. Perkins had Just about given up
all hope of ever exciting her husband's
wonder when a friend told her of a
marvelous conjurer who was showing
at a variety theuter in Boston. She
took SI.
When the conjurer called for a
volunteer from the audience Mrs. Per
kins urged her husband to go up on
the stage. He did. She watched ex
pectantly as the "professor" extract
ed a five dollar gold piece from Si's
ear, passed a watch through his back
and extracted yards aud yards of
ticker tape from his shoes. SI looked
bored. Finally tho conjurer began to
coax at Si's beard, and, to the amaze
ment of the spectators, out hopped
three little white rabbits.
"Waal," said Mrs. Terklns trium
phantly when SI resumed his sent, "I
guess that surprised ye some, didn't
it?"
Si seemed almost surprised that she
should think so. "Why, no," ho finally
drawled. "I didn't like to say noth
in' about it, but I've been sorter sus
pectlu' that them rabbits wus thar for
Borne time." Everybody's Magazine.

was lauded. On the day of the mar

wandering about his new front yard
In a restless manner, and with a very
dejected expression. "Why, what's the

tihould be the happiest man ulive, for
today at least, and you look like a

The bridegroom .started. "Er of

"Then why these glooms?"
"Well, to tell you the truth, Bill."

Not Brought Up.
A prominent Boston pastor who
spent a racatlon in Maine relates tm
experience with a youngster of the
Pine Tree State:
"While walking one pleasant morn
ing I was startled by a sudden out
burst of profanity from a bidden part
of the country road. Thinking that
mild reproof would not come amiss, I
rounded the curve and came upon a
very small boy driving a big cow.
" 'See here, boy, who brought you
up?" I asked.
" 'They didn't nobody bring me up.
I walked up nil the way from Scar-boro-tfrlvlng
tbis cow.' "

MONARCH
IF typewriters were machines run mechanical means in
stead of human hands, you would find that, with a given, amount
of power, a Monarch could bo run at a higher maintained speed
than other typewriters.
Run by "girl power," you find that the Monarches run at
a higher all-day average speed than other typewriters, and
without a "tapering off," from fatigue toward the day's end
jSoth these truths are due to the fact that
LTGrHT
TOUCH
lightens the draft, uses rjower more economically. Eliminates
the waste of energy that typifies the heavy-touch machines
This in turn means increased production per machine and de
creased cost of typewriter work rjer folio.
The Monarch Light Touch and the
Monarch Rigid Carriage are exclusive
Monarch features, every other import
ant feature of the modern typewriting
machine, such as Back Space Key, Two
