I am go ing to poor oof thtOvOll of peppermint. When the odor reaches you, raise your hands, so that I may see bow rapidly It travels.” He emptied the vial, and almost In stantly several hands on the front benchee went up; then farther back the hands began to go up by the dosens, until at last the people In the last seats caught the odor, and raised their hands. The lecturer thanked his auditors, and went on with his address. When he had almost finished, and was speak ing of the effect of the imagination on our senses, he paused, and said with a smile that It was only clear water he had poured out of his vlaL The audience had been caught so neatly that even those who had held up their hands Joined In the laugh. But one illiterate fellow, whose hand had gone up more promptly and em phatically than any other, did not quite understand. “What they laughin' at?” he asked, audibly, of the man sitting beside him. "Why,” explained the man. "you did not smell peppermint at all; It was only Imagination.” "Well." maid the other. “I knowed It was somethin' that smelled mighty strong.”—Youth's Companion.

Signor Lancaul, a single gentle- nan living In apartments, was the vic tim. and since he was well off and food of display he had considerable jewelry —for a man—which was taken. The po lice learned of the missing articles so far as they could be determined and gave a description of them to Gluseppl Varllll, a member of the carabinieri, or national police, who was given the case to make out of it what he could. There was missing one gold chronom eter watch, two gold chains, a number of shirt studs and other articles of similar character. The assassin and robber In making his exit had dropped a link sleeve button on the floor. They make in Italy of pink coral exquisite adornments, and this single sleeve but ton was twin roses of the most deli cate carving, set in gold. Varllll looked at It admiringly. "Who ever has the mate to It," he said, ‘‘will scarcely be able to refrain from wear ing It, so beautiful Is it. If he had it as well as Us mate, he will surely be tray himself on account of It." How ever. the officer put it In his veet pocket with the vague expectation that it might lead to a clew.

A New York dramatic writer tells of an actress of great popularity who is Just beginning to he obsessed with the notion that the public holds her to be older than she really it. The writer was assigned to Inter view this player. He wished to ob tain her views with reference to the state of the drama, a topic whereon the actress did not seem particularly anxious to decant “It does not seem to me,” gently suggested the Interviewer, with a smile, "that I am really ascertaining your opinion. You ought to he frank, since your eyes are gray and—" "Prematurely so, my dear boy, pre maturely so,” the actress hastened to assure him.—Judge. Walking at Billiards. "I figure out," said one of the bil liard experts playing in the champion ship games, “that I walk three miles when I play 400 points. Of course, sometimes I do less than that, pro vided my average runs by nursing are t0 larger. When I can keep the balls closely together for a good run, that lessens the distance I have to walk.” This cue artist said he once made 100 points and did not circle the table half a dozen times. More amaxlng still wap the assertion that he had seen the late Jacob Schaefer run ISO points without going even once entire ly around the table. i* e» with it. *i*4 if th« **»«*■!■ • ear* It La Wtli <V- • l* * ruWp 4 * of •am a(«>k* II* will wear a am ktis a ixl aot a warf \m^mmmm tba ►‘arf I-.kW It My I ba- •< J raa** on IN* hla* (Sat .M* vanity will Ik* '•<t#r •f bta rastiwi * < raa lax \ aiilll • < klaf — 4 In I »Na<-» rva»• Nad l«*c fa , • xl I Na ( a ,-aatalu bandit, ■ N- Nad irm-dara*! • lra*a af on • Na r-^d i t*«*n N.^r*t>lt' a ml \ rna fl »N.> -- utd I r> ■« ,rt a.Miid n-•< f .n.iab a r*t>»>Oi <••• ll*lag ap;*ra«i'!; lo ■ wait to do •■•o d'tl-*» i »« hi* arrlTai In laitiOnti \* Mil » ugh I tlx- Italian quarter.

"I think I have seen you In Berlin. Are you not Herr Berhoff, a brewer?" "1 have ueva been In Berlin in ma life,” snld the other, showing by his speech that he was an Italian, “and I am not a brewer." "Then I have been mistaken," said Varllll, who had desired to get closer to the man and hear him speak. "Now that I see those beautiful coral studs you wear I take it you are from Italy. I have never seen such carving as that except In Naples." At this the man changed counte nance, Involuntarily drawing his coat over his shirt front.

There Is a shop In Naples facing the bay where they are «old. I have a pair of roses composing a link sleeve button”— The man glared and, rising, stood at bay.
