It had been an especially trying day. Mr. Cartaret had been aa disagreeable at only the head of the Arm can make himself, and ahe was so out of aorta that she did not Ten smile upon Jlmmle, the elevator boy. When ahe found Billy Teller wait ing at the door ahe tried to pasa with out speaking. "What's the matter, girlie r he asked aa he caught up with her and fell into step. Do go away," ahe aaid crossly. "I don't want ever to speak to a man again." Not eren mer demanded Billy In affected surprise, "fin not the bead of a firm." I "Don't yon ever b such a horrid thing," ahe aaid, langhlng, aa ahe slipped her arm through his. "It's been an awful day, and I never knew a man could be so hateful" I 'I don't seem to be In line for head of firm," said Billy ruefully. "I asked the boaa this morning if be could raise my pay, and he said I'd be lucky If he didn't find he'd have to cut my wages until after election." "What did you say?" ahe asked.

"It's a little Irregular." declared Bil ly before Disisy could speak, "but at fonuder of the society I am slwayf ready to listen to suggestions." "I would suggest," said Cartaret, pushing away hi soup plate, "that In stead you both make application for reinstatement." "Ever hear of Blnrkton & Stone?" In quired Billy. "1 have often," said Cartaret, bis eyes twinkling. "yell. I worked for 'em," said Billy scutcutlously. "Would you like to make that motion again?" "If the worthy president permits." aa!d Cartaret, "I wonld suggest aa an ameudtueut that Mr. or" "Teller." uld Billy encouragingly. Go ahead." That Mr. Teller make application to Mlsa Dcnnltig'o late employer. 1 bare reason to believe that some advantage may accrue." "Motion carried," said Billy. "What time d'ye want me to come around?" "If your duty to the "society" permits, may I suggest at 10 o'clock Monday r said Cartaret. "I'll be Uiere." Billy assured hlra. "Say, want to go to a show?" "I beg pardon." said Cartaret, with an Imjulriug Inflection. To the theater," explained Billy. "Y'see, we were going to celebrate loa. ing our Jobs. Now we can celebratt getting back at the same time. We're going to see 'Halted at the Altar.' It's a bully show." '1 am afraid." said Cartaret, "that a I business engagement will occupy most of the evenlug. but If you will permit 1 should be glad to have you as guests at uo Goeo of Pneumonia on jjiQoora There is no case on re cordof a cold resulting in Pneumonia, or other seri ous lung trouble, after EMM Order Your Cal endar for 1906 mi Ml fired me for being Impertinent" "Oh, I'm so sorry!" ahe cried. "What did you do it for?" It was bound to come," he said cheerfully. "Ysee, he'a got a nephew be wants to put in my place." I was dismissed, too," she said. "I simply couldn't stand some of Mr. Car taref s language, and when I protested he told me be was going to get a man, so he could say what be wanted to." Bally." said Billy. "Let's celebrate:' "What for?" she demanded. "For our liberty," he retorted. "Come on. Well hare supper downtown ex v J '7 Vi Say, we don't want to rub it In,' postulated Billy.

"We'll buy a scat for you and leava It at the box office." declared Billy. "Try to get In for the last act. where the villain's crazy wife kills him and three choir boys. It's great." "I'll be there," said Cartaret laugh Ingly. "Such Intellectual Joys are not to be despised. And If you will permit"- He ended with a glance at Dal sy and loaned over to whisper some thing to Billy. "Sure!" was the hearty answer, and Cartaret rose to return to his otilee. "What did he whisper?" demanded Daisy as they again turned their atten tlon to dessert.

It will give the employer an excuse for swearing at his typewriter by letting him tell her that it's one of the rules of the organization." "BUly," said the giggling Daisy as she stole a glance at Cartaret. who was apparently busy with the menu. "Don't Interrupt the orator," said Billy severely. "You see, I am going to have a button badge, sulphur color ed, with little blue flames about the edge and a big red D in the middle. It will be very ornamental, and at the same time It will show a decent girl what to expect" "They're not always bad Just be cause they swear," protested Daisy, mindful of Cartarct's many kindnesses when his dyspepsia lay low. "Well, their language Is bad," Insist ed Billy, "or we wouldn't be celebrat ing our Joint dismissal. Maybe we could initiate our former employers as members and get enough to pay our board bills next week." j "ilajll offer b "ngirestlon f bjiolte. In 1 Blpptl Lobatera. The word "lobster" as a slang term of ridicule and opprobrium Is generally regarded as of recent origin. On the contrary, It would seem to go back at least to the seventeenth century. In John Baldwin Buckstoue's play, "The Green Bushes." produced In London about seventy years ago, the scenes are laid at the time of the Irish rebel lion of 170$. One of the characters mentions the English soldiers derisive ly ss "lobsters," referring' no doubt to the uniforms of the "redeonts." Eden Phlllpotts In bis novel, "The Farm of the Dagger," published last year, makes an American prisouer of the war of 1812 speak of the British sol diers as "lobsters." A fanciful etymol oglst might easily And a coniiecUon be tween the prcHeut day slang use of "lobster" and the sixteenth century word "lob," denoting a sluggish and stupid person, which occurs In Shake speare and contemporary plays and poems, usually as a synonym for "lub ber." But the earliest known Instance of the derisive use of the Hlang terra Is the coupling of "lobsters and tatterde malions," meaning soldiers and va grants, by Tom Brown (1673-1701). Brown Is the satirist who mnde the much quoted impromptu adaptation of an epigram by Martial, directing It sgainst bis Instructor and beginning, "I do not like thee, Dr. Fell."-rhlla-delphla Press.

OREGON The Drumming; of Oron.a, Who bas'not beard the drumming of rorrea grouse while In the woods dur ing the spring months? It is the most common sound of wooing, heard from every thicket at every hour of the day. There la still a misconception as to how the drumming Is done. The general be. lief la that the bird produces the sound by working Its wings rapidly, using them to strike Its body or a log. It Is true that the ruffed grouse, like most chickens, flaps Its wings In the excite ment of Its lore song, but that the drumming Is produced In that manner is a myth. I have often watched cock which, standing on a log and drumming for dear life, apparently did not move a feather, though I must state that the drumming was not so loud as if the wings had been flapped Flapping the wings evidently fills with air the lungs and throat of the bird, but Ik not an Indispensable agency In producing the drumming. If the ruffed grouse could work Its wings aa quickly as the closing strophe of the drumming It would be the swiftest motor in ex istenceCountry life In America. Inoredible Brutality. It would have been incredible bru tality if Chas. F. Lemberger of Syra cuse, N. T., had not done the best ne could for tils suffering son.
