The Shakespeare club, of New Or

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.”

I-f generally spells regret.
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

A colored woman of generous pro

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

. 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.

IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA.
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.,

In a cafe.
“The only bad thing about Italy la Us

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.’ ’

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

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

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

following letter:
“Gentlemen: Kindly send me 26 cents

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

Snake Bursts Blood Vessel in

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.

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.”

FOSSILIZED PEACOCK
NEWEST ON THE MENU
No, This Is Not Bill of Fare,
Just Another Scientific
Discovery.
San Francisco. 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.
