Prefers “Turba Turba.”
The olu stage driver who drives the
stage from the elevated station at
Crescent street down to the Old Mill
is not a college bred man, but he has
an idea of Latin nevertheless. Yester
day he was driving a load of passen
gers to the mill, when the conversa
tion among them turned to Santos
Duinont and his airship. One passen
ger remarked that there was no great
danger in an airship, and prophesied
that airships would be a common ve
hicle of travel before many years.
The old stage driver shifted his quid,
tapped the team with his whip, and,
looking around, exclaimed:
“Well, by golly, you can travel in
’em if you want tu, but, as for me, I’d
rather stay right here on turba turba.’’

Too Many Small Brothers. ”
A girl in Salina, Mo., who was han
dicapped by too many brothers, was
entertaining her favorite caller a few
nights ago. Brother No. 1 took up his
position on the front porch and stayed
there. About 11 o’clock brother No.
2 came home and attempted to join
in the conversation, hut was met with
the question, “Where have you been?”
“Oh, teen to see my girl.” “Well, did
her brothers sit around in the way all
the evening?” There was an immedi
ate disappearance of relatives.

Hugo’s Self-Appreciation.
Victor Hugo had a very exalted
opinion of himself. One of his Inti
mates called on him once and found
him walking in his garden, apparently
thinking deeply. The visitor asked
the great French poet what he was
meditating upon. “I was wondering,”
replied the poet, “what I should say to
the Creator when I met him. Can you
imagine what I would say?” “Yes,"
answered the poet’s friend, "you would
say, ‘My dear confrere.’ ”
Emigration From England.
Emigration from England to the
United States continues to show a
startling increase over the figures of
previous years. We cannot see much
’ in talking about the American ih
. vasion, seeing that the Britishers are
running away from their own island
at the rate of nearly 20,000 a month.

ONE CROWN AT A TIME.
Why King Edward Did Not Take Fly.
Ing Ship Trip.
King Edward VII., as is well known,
Is much interested in all matters re
lating to flying ships, and especially
is he interested in Santos-Dumont and
his efforts.
A few weeks before the coronation
it was exfensiboly rumored that the
king had quite made up his mind to
accompany the clever young Brazilian
in one ot his aerial flights, that ho
had, in fact, made all arrangements
for his travel through the air. A cer
tain well-known scientific peer asked
his majesty one evening after dinner,
whether the rumor concerning the
royal aerial voyage was really true.
“Now, Lord -,” answered King
■Edward, laughingly, “is it likely that
I would take this flying ship trip? The
coronation has not yet taken place,
and I can assure you that I wish to
wear my earthly crown before I put
on the other!”
Hint for Hand Shakers.
The woman who is oxdng a man for
$2,000 because he crushed her hand in
shaking it has presumably a good
ground for action. The strong man
who is always giving his friends a
demonstration of his power of grip
Is an unmitigated nuisance. He is
worse than the ass who pounds his
acquaintances on the hack. A grip of
steel and bad breeding have at times
caused amputation. ;

Oxford College Is Absorbs.!. !
St. Mary’s Hall, at Oxford, popularly
known as Skimmery, has been absorb
ed by Oriel after an existence of near
ly 600 years. The number of students
had dwindled down to four. The,ar
rangements for the transfer were
made years ago, but the change was
made to depend on the life of the prim
cipal of the hall, who has just died
after a tenure of forty-five years. i
Why They Are Paid Little.
A Los Angeles paper says the rea
son men in semi-official positions
there are paid less than in the east
is that thousands of half-invalids
gone to California for their health,
are able to do work which the cli
mate of the east made impossible.
Missed Their Opportunity.
The three Pennsylvania cows that
ate some dynamite that they found in
a field didn’t explode, but simply died
from its poisonous effects. Evidently
they didn’t realize the full possibili
ties of their opportunity for spectacu
lar effect.
Only Chinese Washerwoman.
The only Chinese washerwoman in
New York is Ida Bing Ding, who does'
a flourishing business, having several
men in her employ. When she dresses
up and goes abroad she is the envy of
Mott Btreet, for her clothing is not
only gaudy but rich in texture and be
comingly worn. It is said she aspires
to become the wife of a ‘free-born
American. *

Financial Talent Wasted.
It has been found that a Columbus
(Ohio) man whose salary is $7.50 a
week has been leading a double life.
That man is wasting his time. He
should turn his financial talent to
«me account. A man who can lead a
double life on $7.50 a week ought to
be able io give even Russell Sage
pointers on the handling of money.
New Zealand Bush fires.
Autumn in New Zealand is the time
of the bush fires. As soon as the hot
months of summer have done their
work thousands of acres of forest are
set blazing, until in some districts the
country lies under a pall of smoke and
along the coast navigation is hindered
by the huge clouds that drift out to
sea. Throughout the year the bush
men, who usually undertake the work
by contract with the farmers, have
been busy felting and "under6crub-,
bing.” All the tangled undergrowth
of creeper and sapling and tree-fern,
smothered with moss and lichens and
carpeted with beds of smaller ferns,
delicate as seaweed—all this is ruth
lessly slashed down and the trees
within a certain limit and size are
felled. This done, it remains only to
pray for dry weather. Fires are
lighted and in an hour acres of mag
nificent forest are going up in smoke
and flame to prepare the land for cul
tivation.
A Man with a Mission.
It is not given to all men to inau
gurate a successful movement. The
Rev. Francis Edward Clark is blessed
in the satisfaction of having enrolled
nearly 4,000,000 members in the So
ciety of Christian Endeavor, which he
started twenty-one years ago. And
the enrollment goes on. “The roll
call of nations" shows that more than
a score of countries are represented
in the 60,000 brancnes of the society.
Mr. Clark has been the soul of the so
ciety since the beginning. He is a
Canadian, and was born Francis Ed
ward Symmes. His father dying when
he was 2 years old and his mother
when he was 8, he was adopted by his
uncle, the Rev. E. W. Clark. He is a
strikingly handsome man of 51, with

Founded in 1873, the New York Family Story Paper enters its twenty

interest and thrilling incidents than the average tale published in the
monthly magazines, yet its columns are kept scrupulously free of anything
that might offend the most fastidious.
In typographical appearance and Illustration the New York Family
Story Paper is the model for all similar weekly papers. Get a copy and
compare it yourself with the others. Its staff of authors is the best in the
character of fiction that the mass of people desire to read. Among its
contributors, most of whom write exclusively for its columns, will be

Mrs. Alex McVeigh Miller Mrs. E. Burke Collins
