Maurice Barrymore'awit is far-
famed , but a neat little witticism at
his expense was Augustus Thomas'
laconic criticism of one of Barrymore's
plays. The playwright had been
mercilessly picking flaws hi the actor's
drama until the " "
good nufured "Barry"
winced. "Oh , come , cttu.he inter
rupted , "don't be quite so hard , if Ire

that 1 wrote it in a week "Did you ,

An Averted { lanrrcl *
Toodles and Toddles were two little
kittens ,
Exactly alike , excepting in name.
Around Toodles' neck was a piece -of
blue ribbon ;
Around Toddles' neck was a piece of
the same.
Said Toodles to Toddles : "Get out of
my basket ! "
Said Toddles to Toodles : "This
basket is mine. "
And then there ensued a great spitting
and snarling ,
Till Toodles espied a small ball of
twine.
So , breaking away from his little white
brother ,
Ho started to run , on a frolio intent ;
But Toddles was cute , and divining his
purpose ,
To reach the ball first , after Toodles
he went.
But , eluding their grasp , the ball rolled
and bounded ,
And after it scampered each kitten
in glee ;
Till , quarrel forgotten , they soon were
enjoying
A boisterous romp , quite good-na
turedly.
Then old Mother Tab , from her seat on
the hassock ,
Said , putting her paw up to hide a
slight cough :
"I really should judge , from all indica
tions ,
The fight that was brewing can be
declared off. "

The Leopard with Horns.
Once there was a little boy namcfi
Jimmy. He had always lived in the
city , and the only animals he had ever
seen were horses , dogs and cats. But
he had heard of leopards , because one
of his boy friends had told him all
about them , and how they' had spots
on them and they could climb trees
and eat people. Well , one day he went
to the country , and in course of time
his cousin , who was older than he ,
helped him into an apple tree , and then
went into the house to get something
maybe it was an apple. Jimmy was
rather alarmed at being left alone in
the tree , but he managed to stay there.
Suddenly he saw a beast come prowling
up the road. It was about the size of
a leopard , as he imagined , and it was
covered with spots even larger than a
leopard would have , so it must be
( thought Jimmy ) a very awful kind
of a leopard. And , to make matters
worse , this leopard had a pair of horns ,
and large , ferocious-looking ears , and
every now and then it roared like this :
"Mco-oo , moo-oo ! " Jimmy was
frightened half to death. But he had
the slim hope that the animal would
go away without seeing him. Oh , horrible
rible ! The animal came right up to
the tree and put its head right up
among the branches and began to sniff.
Then it ate an apple. Jimmy was sure
that in a moment it would climb the
tree after him , so he got up to the top
of the tree , though how he did it he
couldn't tell next day. He was weak
and white with fear when he reached
the top branch. The dreadful beast
now came close to the trunk and began
to rub up and down. Now he would
spring up into the tree , beyond a
doubt ! But just as Jimmy thought he
was crouching for a spring he saw
his uncle come out of the house , and
he screamed to him , "Oh , Uncle Ed ,
save me , save me ! This leopard is go
ing to eat me ! " Now , some uncles
would have thought the matter a huge
joke , but Uncle Ed was not that kind.
He knew that to little Jimmy the
horned beast was as bad as the most
terrible leopard that ever roamed the
jungle , and so he went over to the tree
and said , "My boy , you are safe while
I am here , because , in the first place ,
this kind of leopard can't climb a tree ,
and , in the second place , it isn't a leo
pard at all , but a cow , and , in the third
place , It Is Daisy , our pet cow , and if
you will take my word for it , you can
ride on her back as if she were a
horse. " There was something in Un
cle Ed's voice that had a very calming
effect on Jimmy , and inside of two
minutes the dreadful leopard that had
come to eat him was turned into a
good-natured old cow , and he rode her
all around the place , holding on to
Uncle Ed's hand. Now Jimmy is grown
up and has a Jimmy of his own , but
he will never forget the horror of that
five minutes with a horned leopard.
An Alaskan Home.
An Alaskan hut Is not the worst
place in the world far from It Its
interior consists of a square floor of
earth flanked on all sides by two wide
ledges rising one above the other like
a terrace. On the lower one rest the
cooking , weaving and fishing utensils ,
the knives and needles , pots and pans.
On the upper ledge , with much dis
play of wonderfully woven blankets ,
are the beds. In the center of the
room glows the fire , the smoke grop
ing Its way out of a hole In the roof.
After the day's work Is done , and the
stomachs of both people and dogs are
full , the family gathers around tha fir < 5 ,
Facing the door sits the father , next
him the motherj on ona hand the
sons and on the othef the daughters ,
even to the third and fourth genera
tion , it may be. Bsyond these are thd
servants or slaves. Each has Ills
place , and takes it as a. matter oi
courae. Without , in the darkness , the
dogs clutter around the door and howl.
The mysterious and Implacable sea
keeps up Its thunder. The snow-capped
mountains , with their Illimitable gla
ciers , lie Just beyond. The shafts ot
the northern light dart through the
sky , like the harpoons of a titan , with
incredible celerity. Is it strange that ,
amid sconea so wild and fearful , sup
erstitions also wild and fearful spring
Into existence ? Or can one bo sur
prised that In an unlettered country
the story tellers are of mighty power
and tell tales that affright the children
till they scramble to the safe shelter
of their mother's arms ? When the
family sings In strange broken yet
rhythmical measures , the dogs howl
louder than before and the women
sway their squat bodies back and forth
unceasingly , keeping their hands oc
cupied meanwhile at their tasks of
weaving or braiding. The men carve
their spoons or cut curious figures
from'the black slate. The suitor for
the hand of one of the daughters en
ters slyly and takes a seat with the
sons. No protest Is made..The father
and mother go on with their little
tasks , the young girls giggle after the
fashion of girls the v/orld over. Ant !
the suitor , thus unrepulsed , contents
himself , thinking his case won. The
oldest among them chants some old
folk-Bong , and the father rises. It is
the signal for good-nights. The ashes
are spread over the fire , and by the
light of a few llshea' tails , dried for
the lighting , the family goss to bed ,
forgetful of crashing bergs , of the
mysterious aurora , of the mountains
where the snow lies forever and al-
way. So is the home made anywhere
where the spirit of home exists. Self-
Culture Magazine for November.
Grandma's Cut Ktorf.
From the Philadelphia Call : The
family group were speaking of cats
and their ways , and the peaceful-look
ing grandmother was asked to say
something. The old' lady smiled , for
she is not often slighted when in the
company of younger people , and con
sented to tell a story about a kitten she
had when she was a child. "You
know , " she said , "I had a stepfather ,
and he liked to see me working about
the house instead of playing with a kit
ten , so he ordered me to throw it in
the brook which ran through our
meadow. I was forced to do it , though
I cried a great deal. I threw it in three
times , but the little thing struggled out
each time and finally dragged itself
home after me. Then I pleaded so
much that I was allowed to keep it.
From that time on it was kind of wild ,
not staying in the house , but skulking
around the barn. When it was full
grown it began to kill our chickens , so
my stepfather said it had to go. This
time he caught it and tied a stone
around It and drowned it. After an
hour or two he drew it from the water
and buried it. Now comes the yart
that is stranger than fiction. Two days
after the same old yellow cat dragged
itself up to the barn. We visited the
place where he had buried it and
found it had come to life and rid it
self of the stone , in what way I know
not , and dug itself out. It stayed by
the edge of our woods , getting the
milk I set out every now and then , but
disappeared when winter came. "
A Wonderful l > Iue.
Did it ever strike you , young people ,
to inquire why the cloudless depths of
the sky above us are so decidedly blue ?
It isn't that the gas we call air is in
itself blue. So far as we know it Is
quite transparent and absolutely color
less. No ; the blue comes from the re
flected light. Air is never pure. You
couldn't live in it if it were. Count
less millions of tiny particles , chiefly
of water , are always suspended in it ,
and these arrest the free passage of
light. Each particle has a double re
flection one Internal , the other ex
ternal and so the reflected rays suffer
the usual result of what is called "in
terference , " and show color. . You will
notice that the sky appears much bluer
if you look straight up than if you
look across toward the horizon. The
reason is that , in the first instance ,
you are naturally looking through a
much thinner layer of air than in the
second. If there were no air , and ,
consequently , no watery vapor , and
nothing to interfere with the free pas
sage of light , even at midday , the sky
would look perfectly blank , and all
the stars plainer than they do now at
midnight.
A Fable.
Timour , the famous Asiatic chief ,
having , on one occasion , taken shelter
from his enemies in a lone building ,
saw a little ant trying to carry a grain
of wheat , larger than itself , up a high
wall. Sixty-nine times did Timour see
the grain fall to the ground , but the
next effort the ant carried off the
prize. "I was in despair , " said the
chief , "but the sight of the ant gave
me new courage , and I have never for
gotten the noble effort which it taught
me. " There is an old proverb which
says : "Perseverance conquers all
things. "
Tit for Tat
A bright 3-year-old , living on Can-

get down on the floor with her to "play
blocks. " After the game was fairly

marked solemnly to her astonished and
highly amused parent :
"Now , I'm going to read awhile.
You play alone and see how you Uko
it ! "
