TALKED TOO MUCH
Loquacity Cost Him His Membership
In the Philosophers Club
I was visiting at my old home In
Munich Bavaria said Henry Meyer
tho artist when my father one even
ing proposed to take me with him to
tho Philosophers club If I would like
to go I had heard a great deal about
this club and jumped at the chance to
visit it knowing that I should meet
there some of the most famous think
ers of all Germauy
As we neared the club my father
cautioned me not to talk too much
since it might be objectionable to some
of the eminent thinkers
In the one large room which consti
tuted the clubs quarters we found a
score or more of learned looked men
sitting silently pufllng their long stem
med pipes For lifteen or twenty min
utes not a sound was heard louder than
the sizzling of tobacco in the pipes
then one of the men who seemed lo
be in the most profound state of med
itation removed his pipe from between
his lips nodded his head in a reflective
way and said
Yah
He seemed to have solved the deep
problem on which he had been think
ing and I expected him to launch
upon the tide of time some grand eter
nal truth fresh from the drydock of his
mind But he only returned his pipe
to his mouth and subsided into that
dense silence from which he had
emerged only for the moment
Ilalf an hour passed before another
word was spoken then a great philos
opher at the other side of the room re
moved his pipe from his lips nodded
his massive head slowly and In that
same tone of abstraction said
Yah
He too I presumed had solved
some great problem and I listened for
an exposition of it but he merely
placed his pipe back between his teeth
and settled down again to that silence
which was almost dinful
It was nearly an hour before any
body spoke again This time it was a
hoary headed old philosopher who took
his pipe from his mouth wagged his
head and remarked as had his prede
cessors
Yah
The next day my father delighted
me by telling mo that I had been ad
mitted as a member of the Philoso
phers club and was freo to attend its
meetings So I was present at the
next one a few evenings later
With my pipe In my mouth I ob
served the silence that seemed to be so
popular there until four or five of the
leading thinkers had in as many half
hours removed their pipes and uttered
the customary Yah Then I thought
It was up to me to prove that I was n
worthy member who also had things
on his mind So I removed my pipe
nodded my head and said
Yah yah
The next day I learned that I had
been expelled for talking too much
Willis Brooks In Brooklyn Eagle
An Extraordinary Bombardment
One of the most extraordinary hoaxes
on record is said to have been played
upon the Dewan Lalla Moolraj a na
tive potentate of the Punjab during
the second Sikh war In the winter of
1848 49 The British army command
ed by Sir Hugh Gough had shut up
the dewan and his forces in the forti
fied city of Mooltan One day the be
siegers were amazed by the thunder
ous sound of a most extraordinary
cannonade followed not by shot or
shell but by an assortment of miscel
laneous provisions In a very fragmen
tary condition raining into the British
lines The Sikh chieftain it was after
ward discovered had found in the city
a large store of canned meats of the
nature of which he was completely
Ignorant A native spy in British pay
gravely Informed him that they were
powerful explosives and hence for
some days the British camp was greet
ed with showers of Strassburg pates
and other more or less mangled but
perfectly eatable tinned food Scrap

Faking a Living Picture
Probably the most notable faked liv
ing picture ever produced was that
which purported to give a representa
tion of the actual scene inside West
minster abbey at the kings corona
tion The production was the work
of an inventive Frenchman who had
special scenery of the abbey painted
and reproductions of the historical cos
tumes made Then a number of
French actors were made up to repre
sent the king the aged primate and
other central figures and remarkably
lifelike they were The mock corona
tion ceremony took place at a quiet
little village in Brittany and the films
were sent to London for reproduction
in one of the leading houses of enter
tainment The managers however
made no attempt to impose on the pub
lic and openly confessed that the
scene was a fake London Mail
Tho Queer Parson Bird
A queer bird is the poo honey eater
of Xew Zealand Its throat is adorned
with small white feathers which from
their resemblance to clerical bands
have gained for it the name parson
bird Its metallic green plumage
with bronze and purplish reflections is
very beautiful Its long and rather
slender beak Is curved It has rather
large feet and the length of its tail is
considerable This bird is plentiful on
both the north and south islands of
New Zealand It is a good songster
and mimic and Its lively temperament
renders it a most interesting cage bird
Its food consists of berries- insects and
honey It has an extensile tongue the
tip of which Is forked and being cov
ered with fibers forms a kind of brush
most useful to the parson bird in gath
ering Its food
