WANTED ALL HE COULD GET
Elderly Passenger in Airplane Was
Looking for Some Thrills for
His Good Money.
Last summer Kokomo, Ind., had the
usual airplane pilot who took passengers
up for $1 a minute. The
pilot was approached one day by a
man who was easily within earshot
of eighty years. The pilot took him
aboard and soared around in "straight
flying," in order not to give the efderly
passenger any thrills that would
be dangerous to his heart action.
After the customary fifteen minutes
he slid gracefully to the ground and
motioned his passenger to alights
The old man complied, and then
walked up to the aviator.
"Say," he exclaimed, "are you a real
flyer? What about Immelman turns,
barrel rolls, loop-the-loops, nose
dive, tail spin, falling leaf, pancake,
and so on? Can you do any of those
things?"
"Sure," replied the aviator, "but I
did not think you cared about any of
those things. They are a trifle risky,
you know, and might upsei your
stomach.'*"
"Well, I paid for a good ridfc and I
expected some of those things," the
passenger countered, "and I would
like to get them. Give me all you
got Tumble around in the air like
a porpoise in the ocean."
The aviator told him to climb
aboard and he would accommodate
him. He gave the passenger "all he
had."
"That's fine!" exclaimed the passenger,
as he climbed out of the
cockpit the second time. 'That's the
way I like to ride I"?Indianapolis

Who Can Find One, Though Many
Are Known to Exist.
We are all familiar with Sir Rider
Haggard's "King Solomon's Mines"
nor was he by any means the first to
put forward the theory, though in a
romance, that many old and but halfworked
mines might yet await the
patient toil of the searcher. Except
in cases where there had been longcontinued
use, it is not at all improbable
that there are ancient mines
ready to reward the intelligent
methods of today. But now in Idaho,
we are told, "the 'lost' gold mine of
the Upper Salmon river district" has
been rediscovered. A rich ledge had
been found by two prospectors and
worked by them a little; then they fell
out and a Spokane policeman, who had
the secret from one of them, sought
the mine for 20 years; then he fell
out. and now it has been found anew,
to enrich the finders, for the ledge
proper is said to be from four to six

Physician and Lovesick Youth Wer?
Alike Too Quick to Jump to

There's a certain physician in Los
Angeles who admits the joke's on him.
Incidentally, he will shortly lose his
daughter. He tells it this way:
"I was in my study when the door
was flung open and in came Jack. I
know him well, and just a glance told
me that he was far from being his
usual self. Indeed, he looked positively
ill.

"'Sure,' he admitted; 'but you
might have let me ask you first!'
" 'Ask me what?' I demanded in astonishment.
"'I want to marry your daughter/

had made the wrong diagnosis and
that he had misconstrued my reference

HISTORIANS HAVE NOT SAID
Of Course There Is Just a Possibility
That Mrs. Patrick Henry
Was Unsympathetic.
They were having one of the usual
family quarrels over his having been
it a meeting at the Commercial club
while she was "at home all alone and
30 lonesome."
"Xou don't wisn me to nave auy uitj
ir country spirit, either," he finally
told her hotly. "I wonder where our
country would be today if all the men
svho have lived in it had stayed as
home and petted their wives all their
iff hours as you are wanting me to do
for you?"
"Well, the women always suffer,"
she retorted. "Public men never have
time to appreciate their wives and
sympathize with?"
Then he interrupted her. "Oh, that
?ry for sympathy" (he was angry
low). "I suppose that it's a nationild
cry. I imagine that while Patrick
3enry was at the Virginia legislature
naking his famed speech, 'Give me
dberty or give me death,' that Mrs.
Patrick H. was at home wailing, 'Give
ue sympathy or give me death.'"?
