WOULDN'T STAND FOR IT. '
In Cleveland they tell a story of a
boy who left school to work for a
small manufacturer. The boy was
dull and his stupidity annoyed his em
ployer greatly. So, after a week’s
trial, he waa discharged.
“Get your pay," said the manufac
turer to him on Saturday, “and let
that be the last of you. You’re dis
charged.”
It was, therefore, a great surprise
that the manufacturer saw the boy
at work In his former place on Mon
day morning. '
“What are ybu doing in this shopt’’
demanded the manufacturer angrily.
“I discharged you Saturday!”
“Yes,” said the boy, “and don’t you
do It again. When I told my mother,
she licked me.”—New York Times.

NEWSPRINT PRICES

SENATE COMMITTEE, AFTER IN
VESTIGATION, gECOMMENDS,
THAT MANUFACTURERS
BE PROSECUTED.
Washington. June 8.—Holding that
scarcity of newsprint paper, which has
handicapped American newspapers,
to be “more the result of artificial ob
structlons than of natural laws,’’ the
senate committee which Investigated
the paper situation today recommend
ed that the department of Justice, in
stitute proceedings under the Sber
man and Clayton acts against prip}
paper manufacturers.
Manufacturers were charged by the
committee with “unjust, illegal and
discriminatory’’ practices. Present
prices for newsprint paper were held
by the committee to be “excessive
and unwarranted.”

Form of Playfulnaaa.
One should never tickle a cello play
er In the fibs, especially If he. is a fa

Detroit Symphony orchestra, remarks
the Detroit News in a recent Issue.
Graham Harris, second violinist, did,
and It almost cost him a lot of trou
ble, to say nothing of a new violin
bow.
The story came out when Harris
filed a suit for $100 In justice cour|
against Abbas. It was a story of tem
perament and temper and the trouble
arose at rehgafsaj. Ossip Gabrilo-

minutes, and the temperamental ones

Flowers.
To dream of picking flowers slgnl-
flea future fortune., Of holding, seeing
or smelling them In season means
pleasure, hut if out of season, ob
stacles and lack of success. If the
flowers are - wldte the obstacles will
be less; If yellow, they will be pain
ful, and-lf red, they foretell the dream
er's serious illness. If you dream ot
being bedecked with flowers it means
a short happiness Is coming to you.
If you dream of buying them you will
hear some good news.—Chicago Amer

No Imitations for Her. •
A young physician took his best girl
to a local picture house. Advertise-
menrs were being thrown on the
screen, among,them this one: “Make
them happy with a photograph of your
self at Christinas. Our shop, etc.”
The young man turned to his girl
with the facetious remark, “Would a.
photo of me make you happy?”
She dtook her head. “I don’t like
Imitations,” site pouted. ‘Tin ised tfl
receiving real things.”
Prepare for “Lsiaure Years.*
Long life Is not worth while unless it
Is active. Merely to exist in dull and
passive contemplation of the Imme
diate environment Invites the verdict,
“Better dead.” Men and women who
hope to live long and retain their fac
ulties should, If o Bnltlmore physician
Is to he bejleved, take a little Ihnught
In advance for the work of the "lei-
sure" years.

The committee also recommended
that 'consideration be given by the
government to the establishment of a
newsprint paper mill to supply the
government’s needs with any surplus
paper to be sold to small consumers.
Cats and Diphtheria.
“It is a widely accepted belief that
cats may suffer from diphtheria and
convey the infection to human beings,”
says the Journal of the American
Medical association in recounting the
experiments by which Doctor Savage
proved that tMs Is entirely without
foundation.
Doctor Savage planted vast numbers
of diphtheria bacilli in the noses and
throats of kittens, but In no instance
did these take the disease, gnd within
24 hours the bacilli were d£ad. Doc
tor Savage reviewed all the evidence in
connection with epidemics of diph
theria rjt j bn me to the conclusion that
so far as it implicates catq, it is quit*
valueless.
He got the men together, scoL'ed,
fumed, argued, coaxed and at last
won They shook hsitfl*. The flam-
age was-settled. And harmony of
both sorts reigned.

"Tour narrative is too highly col

the bulky manuscript. “In what way?”
Inquired the disappointed author.
"Why,” replied the. editor, “in the very

Rai.:ins.
The word raisin Is generally used
to refer to the dried grape. Raisin
grapes are usually the product of
warm climates and contain from 20
to .‘10 per cent of sugar. The
clpal and most valuable class of |
raisin grapes is ihe muscatel. The •
seedless raisins of commerce are ‘
largely Sultana graphs. The smallest
ones come from the currant grape.
Glimpses of present fashions and
views of some shop windows lead to
the Impression that the world Is, after
all ns some commentators say, revert
ing to the savage, remarks the New
York Evening Sun.
Women are wearing more and more,
feathers in their hair and more and
more large and ornate Jewelry upon
their hands and In their ears. Men are
showing a decided Inclination to orna
ment themselves to the limit of their
purses in these days of the high cost of
clothes, and altogether anthropologists
tell ns It Is not such a very far cry
from the adornments of present-day
civilization to that of the Nearanthaler
man or the Garden of Eden Itself.
The fashions of last winter showed a
predilection Joward furs such as the
worljl has never seen since the days
when they were worn raw. Both men
i and women wore them.
| In milder climates women seem to
be wearing less and less. The stage is
noteworthy In respect to the unclothed
-feminine back and certain sections of
society seem to follow the stage. Fash-

Oil Produces Kite’s Necessaries.
It has been said that every possible
necessity of a man's life, save the
water he drinks and the air he
breathes, may be supplied, either di
rectly or Indirectly, through the use
of petroleum products, and even wa
ter may. be pumped by a gaaoime en

Rouge Withers Greek Girls.
Although most Greek girls are nat
urally very pretty, they begin fo paint
and powder from a very early age—
the cheeks bright red, the eyebrows
and lashes deepest black, and veins
delicately blue. ' The result Is that
they are withered old women at forty,
and thus nowhere are uglier females
.to be found than beneath the blue
skies of this classic land.
