(Jood Stag? Jokes.
In the May American Magasine
Wajter Prichard Eaton, dramatic ..Tit
le of that publication, writes an inter
esting article. In the courne of which
he tells the following stories:
"There -ls a form of stage humor
which has always been popular, in
America, and perhaps Is an expres
sion of a national trait. It consists
of the joke which is made by thc ac
tor on the stage half as a part of the
play, half out of the play as a sort of
I side remark to the audience, os lt
I were burlesquing the play. It ls a
[favorite form of humor with certain
vaudeville comedias, . who usually
[abuse it. It was a favorite forte.!
with the old Weber and Fields com
pany, who could use it to perfection.
[Once the late Peter Dalley, in a Web
? er and Fields play, came nut on the
stage from the wings, port,ned by
I the applause supposedly off a group
i of diners td whom he had been mak
ing a speech. He jerked his thumb
toward . the . Invisible applauders,
smiled at the audience, and remark
ed, 'Jolly dogs, those stage hands.'
I "Again DeWolf Hopper started to
make a curtain speech after thc fir*!,
?performance of 'Fiddle-dec-dec,' and
hesitate for a word.
"'What's the matter?' asked War
field. 'You did it all right this after
noon.'
"An audience which had howled
with laughter all the evening br.d?
nnt anew at this personal sally, stau.'
jokes of this kind, which refuse to
take the play seriously and which in
clude the whole audience In the fun, [
certainly mak? for a kind of family j
[intimacy lu thc playhouse-; and If]
[the players are comic and skillful, iff
the public ls keen witted, and if thc
j play Itself baa merits, a brand of en
tertainment results which is peculiar
ly palatable to us Americans. Of
I course, the trouble ls that so few I
players can do this sort of jcBting; i
? can become thus intimate with an
audience, without becoming obnox
ious. Therefore, since the little,
smoke-filled, much-beloved Weberfield
j Music Hall closed its doors we have
had no company in New York, nor
lin America anywhere, to take the
place of that institution which for
so many years was the delight of UR
all."
Your Children Won't Have Good Man.
?era If Yon, Your self. Haven't,
In the course of a very interesting
little article entitled, "Your Chil
dren's Manners.'' In the May Wo
man's Home Companion appears, the
following wise comment:
''Good company manners depend
upon good home manners. Aa for
table manners, the active child -who
from hla earliest years has been ac
customed to regular meals of simple
food with sufficient variety for hts
health and pleasure wil< be hungry
enough at mealtime to eat anything
that ls put before him. If from thc
beginning he haj been encouraged by
examvBe, thun . good table mannera
will be as natural as breathing.'They
will bo a part of him, and he will
make use of them wherever tte la.
, "The place for a parent to begin
training the mannera of her child la
with her own mannera. Whenever a
mother complains to me of tba bad
manners ot her child she Is uncon
sciously lodging a complaint against
herself as a mother. Of course a cerf
tain amount of boisterousness and
willfulness is to be expected, ?md
hoped for. tn the-*h!ld; but bad man
ners spring almost invariably from,
the caretessnealsv-tlack of considera
tion, artificial Ideals, lack of time
many busy mothera, it is-true ,can not
give the time they wish to their chil
dren-of those who are responsible
for the child's training.
"The old ideal of training in be
havior was based largely upon ' tbs
principle of tba child's consideration
for ita elders; tba modern principle
demands also tba aidera' ' considera

In the interesting people depart

ippears un article about Sol A. Ht op
ilan, who is doing a splendid work at ?
the Cincinnati zoological-gaden.- He
knows how to perform a surgical op
eration on a tiger, cure a hippopota
mus and take care of all kinds of j
wild animals. His work requires
rare kind of wisdom and ability. Fol
lowing is an extract from the article
ibout him:
"For 35 years -Sol Stephan has pro
vided over the Cincinnati zoological
garden, and hat) boen, therefore, fos

"Stand beside the cage of a fierre

safe and effective utethod of operat
ing? Sol builds a false back for thc

ropes, lt constricts the lion until he

"Could you extend, tho life of the I

Appalling Pire Risks ea Farms.
A contributor to the current Issue
if Farm and Fireside shows how ap
niling fire risks are on farms. He
ells how to reduce some of thea fire
-iaks and writea in parts as follows:
"The inveterate smoker is about as
langerous aa a walking stick of dyn
unite. It makes me shudder to see
i man smoking around the farm
mllding. One man I know never will
ergot the wajr he was run off the
arm when I caught him smoking
i cigarette white stacking bay. An
>ther dangerous practice of '.filch the
ivorage man la guilty Is that of
:arrylng ordinary matches loose in
tia pockets. He should carry either
lafety matches or keep the ordinary
lind tn a metal box.'
"On most farms the lantern ls still

o take ont the . burners and clean

"String a wire along behind the
torses ?vd cow? high enough so that

"Put a few short slid log hooks on

Do You Carry Fire Insurance ?
The business man protects himself ;ag?inst the loss of1 his
factory by means of lire insurance. For reasons much mow
imperative he should insure his family, against the ?oss of his
producing power by life insurance. The factory may never
burn, but the man will die. Though the factory, should bum
uninsured, the owner might live to accumulate property ,worth
many times, its value. But if the man dies' uninsured *fls
family suffers an absolute and irreparable loss. Only through
life insurance can this consequence be avoided. Life insur
ance does not insure life, but it does insure the productive
value of a life, and it affords the only means possible for the
vast majority of men to continue an adequate provision for
their families after they themselves are dead. This is not
only possible, but it. is a duty. Thc law requires a man to
provide Ipr his wife and children, and the highest sentiments
of noble manhood demand that he should also make provision
for his widow and orphans.
