Tho Key Under tho Door
It Is cuatomnry for the back d i
key to he put halfway under the dour
so that I can reach it when coming
off duty late at night remarked an
artist to a London Tit Hits writer
The other morning at breakfast my
landlady said to me Do yon know I
bad an awful fright last night I put
the key halfway under the door as
usual when to my horror 1 -saw it
drawn slowiy out of sight I of course
thought some one had got the key and
would unlock the door and come in
ho I quickly bolted it and shouted
through the keyhole My word if you
dont bring that key back Not daring
to retire to rest 1 sat quietjy listening
for a time Then 1 got a table knife
and pushed It under the door to see if
the key had really been taken right
away and to my surprise drew the key
back again So very cautiously 1 un
locked and unbolted the door looked
out and found not a burglar but our
own wicked cat who while sitting on
the doorstep and seeing the key pushed
under the door must have drawn the
key out of sight with her paws think
ing I was playing with her
An American Joke From England
The typical American says a con
tributor to the English Illustrated
Magazine although partial to making
jokes lis often quick tempered and un
able to recognize a joke made by an
other with results that are sometimes
unpleasant
Thus a senator was once at a fash
ionable dinner party at Washington
when he was asked what fish he would
take
Waal he said I reckon Ill take
plaice
A wit who chanced to be present re
marked with a twinkle in his eye
Ah senator still a place seeker
Yaas answered the senator at the
same time whipping out a revolver
and shooting the wit dead but whats
that to you you dernd stranger
Afterward when tho joke was ex
plained to him the senator confessed
that ho had acted rather hastily and
to show that he bore no grudge he
weut to the funeral of the inopportune
wit
A Queen Elizabeth Joke
Queen Elizabeth liked her jokes and
although her pleasantries were of a
less sanguinary turn than her fathers
she must have been even more for
midable than usual when disposed to
be frolicsome A tale may be found
in one of Lord Essexs letters with
regard to a new dress belonging to one
of her maids of honor over the pos
session of which the owner had been
rash enough to exhibit some elation
The young lady it seems was several
inches taller than her majesty hardly
perhaps quite a nice or loyal thing to
be Having desired that the dress
should be made over to her custody
the queen first carefully selecting an
extreniQly wet day waspleased to put
it on and trail it for yards behind her
in the mud the owner of the hu
miliated garment having to appear as
delighted with the royal fun and con
descension as the rest of the lookers
on London Tatler
And All With Company There
Now children said the mother as
a whole roomful of company bad comb
in suppose you run off and play by
yourselves
All right mother replied Edith
Can we go up and play Hamlet and
Ophelia
Certainly smiled the mother while
her cuests looked on at the tableau
Goody replied Edith Then turn
ing to her sister she said Now
Maude ycu run up to mammas room
and get all her false hair that you can

Love
Properly there is only one verb for
love It is not amo It is not
aimer It is not the softest Italian
verb Xo printed language of man
knows it But -the violin knows it
and the- wild bird knows it even the
sea knows it The rose is it and the
moon is it and the look of a mans
eyes into a is it and the look
of a womans eyes back again is it
But no man or woman can say it in
any language that endures Love Let
ters of the King
Wanted No Trimmings
Little OIlie was much frightened at
a thunder shower aud her father told
her she shouldnt be as the raiu was
good for the grass and her flowers
Looking up through her tears Ollio
said W well why c cant we have

Played It to the Limit
Many writers have declared that an
Irish gentlemans hospitality is unlim
ited but this is a slight exaggeration
as is shown by a story borrowed from
a book of Irish memories
Jerry Mctartie was often the guest
of friends who on account of his pleas
ant ways extended to him that sort of
old Irish hospitality which enabled a
visitor In my own family who camu
for a fortnight to stay for six years
In McCanles case the visit stretctied
to nearly double that time After
eight or nine years however his kins
man got a little tired of his guest and
let him know of his old mansions pro
posed renovation and that he had sign
ed a contract for having it painted
from garret to cellar
By George said Jerry its for
tunate that I dont object to the smell
of taint and it will be well to have
some one to keep an eye on the paint
ers now that the wall fruit is ripen
ing
Some months passed Then his host
Informed him that he was going to be
married adding I thought Id tell you
in good time so that you could make
leisurely preparations to go as the
lady and you may not hit it off as well
as you and I do
With tearful eyes Jerry grasped his
cousins hand saying
Oh Dan dear you have my hearty
thanks for your consideration but
dear dear boy surely if you can put
up with her I can
Woodhopping as a Sport
In Tasmania is to be found a national
pastime that is special and particular
to that state alone the sport of ood
chopping It says mil i for the grit
and vigor of Tasmanians that this
really serious and arduous work should
be regarded as the finest sport At
Ilobart and Launceston they have
their turf meetings their cricket foot
ball golf cycling and so forth but to
a woodehopping contest people will
flock from far and near men women
and children and watch the ax wield
ers hewing away at huge blocks of
timber as If life and reputation de
pended upon the issue Thud thud
thud go the axes and the splinters ily
in all directions the judges calmly sit
ting near taking notes of the strokes
the spectators cheering the compet
itors from time to time as franticallv
as if they were race horses To be a
woodehopping champion means some
thing to a man in Tasmania Dundee

Look Prosperous or Pay In Advance
While there is a good deal of tho
American spirit prevailing in Sydney
and Melbourne they do things there in
a peculiar way said a traveling man
It is hard to get used to them
They have excellent restaurants
there but they run on a peculiar plan
A man goes in and sits down at a table
and a waiter generally a woman
hands him the bill of fare He makes
out his order on a slip and before In
is waited on the waiter goes to the
cashier and has a little private talk
with him The cashier looks over at
the customer and if he appears to be
good for the bill he is served other
wise he is asked to pay in advance
The meals are good and cheap The
same careful scrutiny is made when a
fellow registers at a hotel Good looks
will go further than any amount of
baggage Omaha Bee
Clear Waste
He has a quick temper you know
was the excuse given by a friend for
a boys rude act
Is lie quick at his lessons V was the
question
No was the reply
Is he quick at sports the ques
tioner went on
Again the answer was No
Is he quick in obedience
No
Well said the questioner witli a
twinkle in his eye if he has so little
quickness hed better use it where it
will do him some good Its clear
waste to put it on his temper
The Town of Bushire
Residents of a miserable seaport on
the Persian gull called their town Bu
shire Boosheer It has narrow dirty
ill paved streets The city Is visited
by earthquakes and simooms and stints
its children of wholesome air and fresh
water It appears however to have
enjoyed high repute among the ancient
Elamites who have left buried about
under moldering heaps bricks with
cuneiform inscriptions In summer the
citizens of Bushire live In a heat that
Is almost unbearable
