Old Trouble in the Royal Palace. Prom Success Magazine. The Shakespeare club, of New Or leans, used to give amateur theatrical performances that were distinguished for the local prominence of the actors. Once a social celebrity, with a gorgeous costume, as one of the lords in wait ing, had only.four words to say: "The ?;ueen has swooned.” As he stepped orward, his friends applauded vocifer ously. Bowing his thanks, he faced the king and said, in a very high-pitched Voice, "The swoon has queened." There was a road of laughter; but he waited patiently, and made another attempt: “The sween has cooned.” Again the walls trembled and the etage manager said, in a voice which could be heard all over the house, “Come off, you doggoned fool.” But the ambitious amateur refused Surrender, and in a rasping falsetto, as e was assisted off the stage, he •creamed: “The coon has swooned.” No Rescue. fihe sank four times, but no one came To rescue her And that was certainly a shame. We must aver. A rescue would have easy been. A casual peep Disclosed tne water she was in Was not waist deep. No youth arrived, although she sank Some six times more. And so she left the ocean dank And went ashore. —Kansas City Journal. Money talks, but it doesn’t always make * satisfactory financial statement. PILES CURED AT HOME BY HEW JBSORPTIOH METHOD.

The man who is disappointed in love generally lives to be glad of it. Some women are partial to men, and others are quite Impartial. The average woman is not satis fied to do as she pleases unless she can make other people do as she pleases. The fellow who agrees with every body is really a very disagreeable person. Heredity doesn’t always work out. You surely wouldn’t lay the blame of a bad egg on the hen. Experience will do a man lots of good if it doesn’t worry him to death. An ounce of prevention is not al ways worth a pound of cure, but it costs less. Contentment is merely the ability to forget for a while the things that are beyond our reach. When a man aims high and fails to hit the mark, he is apt to com plain that the mark was too low. A man who has tried it tells mo the only advantage in living in the su burbs is that they are so near the city. TIIE FINEST FAREIC Is coarse compared with the 1 lain* of the bowels.

A colored woman of generous pro portions was on the witness stand in the superior court before Judge Weir the other day and she made such a good witness for the plaintiff that the attorney for the defense planned to throw’ "cold water" on what she said by finding fault with her character. "Let me see, you have been arrest ed, haven’t you?” the attorney asked on cross-examination. “Don’t care to ’scuss thawt mattah," she replied shortly. "But you must answer the ques tion," the attorney told her. "The law requires you to answer whether you care to or not.” "Weil, 1 ain't been ’rested but once,” she said reluctantly. "Tell us what that was for.” "Now, look a heah," said the witness, getting angry, “do you think I’m gotn’ to tell you all my private business? I guess not-" "I have the right to know, and you must tell me.” the lawyer persisted, and Judge Weir instructed the witness that she would have to answer. *Ts ’rested for lickin’ my husband," she said, her eyes flashing. "That so?’ said the attorney with great satisfaction. "What is your hus band’s name?” And she told him. "And what is his business?” "He's a prize' figtah," she said, and the cross-eXamination abruptly ended amid gotferal merriment. . The Aspen Tree. The little aspen tree stands high Upon the hill that guards the lane; Her leaves are green as emeralds. Her prattle is like dancing rain; She gossips to the wind, the sky, And we are comrades, she and I. I climb the hill at evenfall; She stands so high she may look down, And whisper me if you have turned The winding highway from the town, And in the wind's arm bend to see And murmur that you haste to me. And with her hundred voices tell Each step you take to reach my side, And laugh in merry mockery Pretend to scold, and weep and chide, And stand a moment mute In grief Then laugh with every rustling leaf. And when at last you take my hands And call my name In mimicry. She chatters it a dozen times, And then, in gay and elfish glee, Attunes her happy leaves to this— The lisping cadence of a kiss. —Theodosia Garrison. Don’t dope yourself for every little pain.

"Do you like Oscar Kharyyam?" thoughtlessly asked a gentleman who was entertaining two brothers whose acumen in commercial matters was considerably in advance of their liter ary knowledge. "Pretty well,” replied the elder of the two guests, "but I pre fer Chianti." Nothing more was said till the brothers were on their way home. "James,” said the younger bit terly, "why can't you leave things you don’t understand to me? Omar Kahyyam ain’t a wine, it’s a cheese.” From the Boston Transcript.

Do you think others envy you because of your shrewdness? More spinsters might marry If other women didn’t marry so often. From a woman’s viewpoint a court of last resort is a divorce court. You can make an enemy of a friend by convincing him that he’s a fool. It’s harder for a man to raise bees than it is for bees to raise a man. You may have observed that satisfied people as a rule, keep quiet about It. When people get a divorce the real reason doesn’t always show on the sur face. Old-fashioned honesty should never be allowed to drift into the has-been class. The bark of the average dog Is worse than his bite; the bark is usually kept up all night.

Whole Body a Maas of Raw, Bleed* lo«r, Torturing Humor—Hair All Fell Out—Hoped Death Would Bud Fearful Suffering— In Despair Cured by Cutlcura, “Words cannot describe the terrible eczema 1 suffered with. It broke out on my head and kept spreading until It covered by whole body. I was al most a solid mass of sores from head to foot. I looked more like a piece of raw beef than a human being. The pain and agony I endured seemed more than I could bear. Blood and pus oozed from the great sore on my scalp, from under my finger nails, and near ly all over my body. My ears were so crusted and swollen I was afraid they would break off. Every hair in my head fell out. I could not sit down, for my clothes would stick to the raw and bleeding flesh, making me cry out from the pain. My family doctor did all he could, but I got worse and worse. My condition was awful. I did not think I could live, and wanted death to come and end my frightful sufferings. “In this condition my mother-in-law begged me to try the Cutlcura Rem edies. I said I would, but had no hope of recovery. But oh, what blessed re lief I experienced after applying Cutl cura Ointment. It cooled the bleeding and itching flesh and brougtft me the first real sleep I had had In weeks. It was as grateful as Ice to a burning tongue. I would bathe with warm water and Cutlcura Soap, then apply the Ointment freely. I also took Cutl cura Resolvent for the blood. In a short time the sores stopped running, the flesh began to heal, and I knew I was to get well again. Then the hair on my head began to grow, and In a short time I was completely cured. I wish I could toll everybody who has eczema to use Cutlcura. Mrs. Wm. Hunt. 135 Thomas St., Newark, N. J., Sept. 28, 1908.” Potter Drug & Chem. Corp., Sola Props, of Cutlcura Remedies. Boston. Song.

Alberto Frederlcco, the head of New York’s roast chestnut trust, an organiza tion not to be despised, was praising Italy In a cafe. “The only bad thing about Italy la Us train service,” he said. ”1 shall never for get a winter experience of mine on the rail road that runs along the Mediterranean from Ventimllle to Genoa. "I boarded this train at Ventimllle one morning bound for San Remo. Off we started, snow covered mountains to our left, orange groves and rose farms about us, the blue sea on our right, and after some minutes we stopped. " ‘Is this Bordlghero?” I asked a guard. “ ‘No, It's a cow,’ he answered. ‘There’s a cow on the track.’ “Well, after a while the cow was driven off. and we got under way again. Some few miles were traversed In a leisurely way, and then—we stopped again. ” ’Another cow?’ I said to the guard bit* terly. * ’No,’ he replied. ‘The same one.’ ’ Betty Wins. Betty, the Incorrigible, banged into the house as she came from school and, fling ing herself down at the luncheon-table, ex claimed breezily: "Pass the jell!” “Betty,” said her mother severely, “you cannot have the Jelly until you ask for it correctly.” “Passs—theee—Jelll!” urged Betty with elaborate enunciation. “Elizabeth, you ask politely for the Jelly at once,” commanded her mother, sternly. “Pass-gery-the-gery-jell-gery!” grinned Betty impishly. “Betty Brown, obey me at once, and ask for that Je-” “Pagadass thegeree jeggedelly,” sug gested Betty amiably. Her mother fixed her with a piercing eye. “You may ask for that jelly correctly or leave the table instantly." Betty compromised. She smiled a smile of surpassing sweetness and said deli cately: . “Will you pul-lease pass the jlllee?” It was reluctantly given to her, and she ate unctuously of It. When she had fin ished she pushed her plate away and looked up innocently. “Darn good jell!” she announced wltli conviction. Then she fled. Abroad with Bryan. From the Portland Telegram. Colonel William J. Bryan was discussing the war in Manchuria with General Oyama. "Were you ever under fire, colonel?" asked the warrior. "No, general, answered the Nebraskan, "but I’ve been over one many times." But Oyama didn’t know how W. Jen nings had been roasted. They were talking of national institu tions. "We have an order here," said the mi ! kado, "called the Samurai, who fight and never give'up. No one has ever succeeded In getting the best of them. Is there any thing like it in your country?" "Yes," answered Mr. Bryan, "but we call them life Insurance companies." With such badinage, they whiled th# 1 hours away. Perilous Speed. Governor Folk, of Misourl, praised in Philadelphia the deliberate way in which Mayor Weaver had set about reforming i the city. j "All reform," he said, "must be deliber ate and gradual to be lasting. If your I mayor had set in to reform your city a year ago, he would have failed. Corruption is a dangerous thing, and its dangers must be escaped from cautiously, as a ship es capes from the dangers of a fog. "Your mayor," said Governor Folk, "ha* not been like the foolish sea captain. "To this man, in veritable pea soup I weather, when you could not see your hand I before your face, a passenger came and 1 said anxiously: I v “ ‘Captain, why are you stealing through this thick fog at such a dreadful rate 01 j speed?* " ‘Fogs, sir,’ said the captain, ‘are dan ' gerous, and I am always in a hurry to gef out of them.* " Like and Unlike. The literary work of a wealthy amateur Waa being lauded In a Philadelphia club. I John Luther Long laughed and said: I “I always compare our friend’s produc tions with Tolstoi's. This comparison edi fies and lluminates, for both the resem blances and differences between the twc men are marked and striking.” A friend of the rich amateur’s smiled | eagerly: I “What are these resemblance and diff erences, Mr. Long?” he said. “Both men,” the novelist answered, Softer their works to publishers free, buf ! Tolstoi'* are accepted.” Rebuking a Boaster. 1 Tho late former Congressman Jerry Blmpson was a plain man, to whom osten tation of every kind seemed vulgar. A rich senator was once boasting to Mr. Simpson in a Washington restaurant about his luxurious way of living. Among other things he said: “I was obliged to discharge my second coachman last week. Though he was in many ways an invaluable fellow, he was continually hanging around one of the prettier under housemaids.” Mr. Simpson considered such talk pure, vulgar boasting, and proceeded to rebuke It as such. “I,” he said gravely, "have been obliged to discharge my third groom. He was al ways loafing in the servants' billiard room.” —♦— Not on Sale. A company which manufacture* band Instruments receives a large number of letters from green players, asking advice as to their difficulties. Several months ago this company sold a comet to a man in Canada. As might have been expected, after he had played it for some time with out removing the valves the action became stiff. He wrote to the manufacturer, ex plaining the trouble, and asking whether he should grease the valves. In answer he was told that was the usual custom of cornet players, when this difficulty oc curred, to remove the valves and put a little saliva upon them. To their aston ishment the next week’s mail brought the following letter: “Gentlemen: Kindly send me 26 cents worth of saliva. 1 can’t get it in the stores here. Enclosed find stamps In payment." Black Hair Is Strongest. Black hair Is stronger than golden tresses and will sustain almost double the weight. Recently a German scientist has been experimenting and has found that it is possible to suspend a weight if four ounces by a single hair, provided the hair be black. Blond hair will give way at varying weights dependent upon the ex act tint. A yellow hair will scarce sup port two ounces, a brown hair will hold up three without breaking, while a very dark brown will sustain an additional half ounce. The great vitality of the black hair la declared to be the reason for the prepon derance of blond bald heads, and accord ing to this experiment a person with Jet black hair will still enjoy a full growth, while the blond will have been bald for seven and a half v*»r. BILLY GOAT KILLS ENORMOUS PYTHON Snake Bursts Blood Vessel in Swallowing Animal With Horns; Later Embalmed. Logansport, Ind., Aug. 11.—A goat, k common, tln-can-e,atlng "Billy" goat, caused the death of Royal Rajah, a python, which Gus Lamb rigger was exhibiting here. The python, which Is said to have been more than 100 years old. was 27 feet long and weighed 300 pounds. The snake yesterday aroused from Its dormant state and showed signs of hunger. Although John Hllde brandt, officer of the local humane society, had served notice on Lamb rigger ordering him to kill all ani mals before giving them to the snake, a live gout was forced Into the snake’s feeding pen. Covers With Saliva. The huge python sprang forward and wrapped Its body about the ter rified goat. The bones were crushed like egg shells and the snake then began to cover the crushed body with saliva. When this was done It start ed to swallow the body whole. In swallowing the goat one of Its horns became fastened and the Snake In at tempting to dislodge It burst an ar tery and bled to death. The snake was embalmed, seven gallons of fluid being necessary for the job. DISCOURAGED WOMEN. A Word of Hope for Despairing One*. Kidney trouble make* weak, weary, worn women.

Fos ter-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Reward of Honesty. From the Cleveland Press. One day last week a teacher In Bolton school picked up In the street a chamois bag, and, peering inside, saw some dia monds. Advertisements telling of the loss of $2,000 worth of dlamon .s led the school teacher to the residence of the owner, the wife of a downtown merchant. Incident ally a reward was offered, but the woman who found them is of character too high to make a reward a thing to be considered In such a case. She carried the diamonds to the woman who had lost them and the ■ latter seized them with all the Joy that a woman could possibly show on the re covery of her Jewels. "And now," said the woman, "you shall have a reward of $10 If you take It out In trade In my husband's shop." | The school teacher's sense of humor prevented her from showing any disgust, , and she told the owner that she could not think of taking a reward for common honesty, and was only too glad to find the owner. During the conversation the | woman was counting the diamonds, and she suddenly broke out with: "One of them is missing! One of them i Is missing! What are you going to do i about that?" "The best I can do about that," replied ■.he school teacher, "Is to wish that more were missing. Good day.” His Mistake. From the Denver Republican.

Special: The scien tific bonanza of the archaelogical re search workers of the University ol California—the asphalt beds on the Ranclto La Lrea, near Los Angeles— has just produced another wonder to the scientific world In the shape of a peacock, the first to be found fossilized on this continent. The announcement of the finding of the peacock, evidently one of a rare species, has created as much Interest at the University as when Professor J. C. Marrlam announced the finding ol the asphalt beds and the discovery of the sabre-toothed tiger—the antedilu vian predecessor of the cat family. These asphalt beds, according to Professor Merrlam. who Is an authority on primitive forms, were once the stamping grounds of hundreds of ani mals now unknown to science. They were caught In a death trap when they strayed too closely to the oil deposits of the earth, and by the processes of ago were fossilized. In many respects the discovery of the peacock eclipses the finding of the sabre-toothed tiger. The peacock was found by Loye H. Miller, of the class of 1899, of the university, and is believed by the finder, who has given the bird the name of Pava California, to be the only specimen of Its family found In fossilized form In the western hemi sphere, although It has been unearthed in Europe and India.
