Many stories are told of how the com poser Brahms treated pianists and 6ingers who were eager to get his criti cism. If one of these aspirants for Ills favor was fortunate enough to find him at home and be received, Brahms' first concern was to seat himself ou the lid of his piano, a position from which he rightly deemed few would have the te merity to oust him. If this failed, he had recourse to the statement that the instrument was out of tune. “Oh. that does not matter,” remarked one cour ageous individual. “Perhaps not to you, but it does to me,” replied the master. On one occasion he was Just leaving his house when a long haired youth, with a bundle of music under his arm, hailed him with, “Cau you tell me where Dr. Brahms lives?” “Certainly,” answered the master in the most amia ble manner, ‘‘In this house, up three flights." And, so saying, lie hurried away. The Treacherous Lioness. , “Lionesses are far more dangerous than lions," said an animal trainer. A First-Class Hearse “Their tempers are more uncertain. They are more treacherous. They are at a Moderate Charge more wily. If a lion Is In a bad hu Burial Robe», Shoe», Glove* and Hosiery mor, he shows it.

Perhaps the most desolate spot on earth Is a tiny storm swept Islet In Bering sea nearly midway between Alaska and Siberia. Nearly fifty miles from the nearest land. King's Island Is a barren rock, so steep thnt no beach landing can be found. Here on the southern side, pet.thed like nests above the roaring surf and secured to the rocks by walrus thongs, are the skin dwellings of the walrus hunters. Here tin; sun Is never shining, the sea never smooth. Cold, chilly fogs enshroud the place In summer, while the frequent and furious gales that sweep through Bering strait at all seasons render tho narrow summit uninhabitable. Ice looked during nine months of the year, tho natives depend entirely upon the seal, walrus and whale as a means of existence. During the brief summer a stray whaler may visit the Island for a cowple of hours, but this Is the sole communication with the outer world. The King's islanders are closely allied to the Alaskan Eskimos. They are a fine, hardy rare, inured to dally dan gers and privations, and art; reckoned the best anti bravest sailors in Bering sen. Their I stats of walrus hide will carry from twenty to thirty persons in a mountainous sea. Hit Second Book. What Ailed the fipeeeh.
