Tom Browne, Celebrated English At
tlst. Meets Suspicious Negro
Glass Chewer.
Torn Browne, the celebrated English
humorous artlBt, may be said to have
had no education whatever in draw
ing. He educated himself, What he
saw he drew, and his genius made it
a picture. He did go to an art school
at Nottingham for a couple of terms,
and it was a good school in its way.
Anyhow, he grew tired of the cut-and-drled
methods obtaining there of
the restraint, as be once put It to me
and so with about a dozen other
would-be artists be took a room over
some stables and there drew and
painted from "life." They took it in
turns to procure models a tramp, a
newspaper boy, a flower seller, any
body who wanted to earn a quarter
served their purpose.
One night Tom, scouring the neigh
borhood for a subject, lighted on a
negro who earned a living by chewing
glass In public houses. This nice gea
tleman was asked if he would come to
the loft to be painted.
He looked at Browne earnestly for
some moments and, evidently laboring
under the impression that the natural
hue of bis body was to be altered, he
demanded: "Will it come off, sab?'

Sand and Germs.
Pretty ideas don't always appeal to
the experts in hygiene. Kissing, for
example, is dangerous, and even that
sand provided for children in the
parks is not so Innocent as it looks.
The sand-hopper, with which children
are so familiar on the real seashore,
is replaced, according to the gloomy
experts, by another kind of hopper
The sand, in a word, when the chil
dren have played architects with it for
a time adds crittlness to grlttiness.
This Is not necessarily a reflection on
the children or the children's parents,
for sand, like loose hay and straw,
seems to produce crlts out of no
where. But, after all, sand can be re
newed at small cost, and if the econo

Good Stories Told of Harry Lauder,
the Popular Little Scotch
Comedian.
Harry Lauder, little Scotch comedl.
an, the greatest exponent of slinon pure
thrift Broadway ever knew, the man
who never let a guilty penny escape,
has been "separated, disentangled," as
it were, and as a result he is out Just
$25,000. A Boston financial Napoleon
Induced the wee Scot to Invest $25,000
in copper stock which is worthless
Getting $25,000 from Lauder brands
him as a youth deserving of the tltla
Napoleon of Finance.
To illustrate Lauder's frugality this
story is told of how Gus Elen, a Brit
ish music hall favorite, once heard that
Harry was saving more money than
he (Elen) was saving. He went to
Lauder's room to ask how he managed
It.
"Wait till I blow out the candle,"
said Lauder, "and I'll tell you."
Another time, when Lauder was in
New York he was in a wine-buying
party at the Astor. Everybody but the
Scot bought wine. When it came his
turn to buy he sighed:
"Well, boys," he said, "ifs my turn
to treat Come along with me. I've
got a fine bottle of old Scotch up in
my room I brought it over with me."
On another occasion he was with a
drinking party, and instead of liquor
he took cigars, for which those who
treated him paid 50 cents apiece.
Harry put all but one in his pocket
He spent two hours smoking that one.
After the drinking was over the little
comedian went to the cigar counter
ana saia to tee man in charge: I say,
man, wud ye mind glvln' me 10-cent
cigars for these 50-cent ones?" The
exchange was made and Harry went
to his room with five times as many
cigars as he had at the start

How McKlnley Got a Job.
Congressman 'Duncan McKlnley. the
silver-tongued lame duck from Califor
nia, who was defeated in his own dis
trict last November while he was dis
pensing Republican oratory in other
parts of the country, was in the east
right after election. He met President
Taft in New York.
"Awfully sorry you were defeated."
said the president.
"Yes, so am I," admitted the con
gressman, with a tone that was as
good as an affidavit. "But I am aot
going out of public life."
"That's good; what are you going to
do?" asked the president.
'Don't know yet, but I'm goipg to
have a position in the public service.
I'm willing to leave that to you."
The president laughed, and so did
the congressman. The story goes that
Mr. McKlnley filed on two or three
good things that were found already

(hat I have received from yoi noted
Swamp-Root, the great kidney and blad
der cure. Last summer I was taken
with severe pain in my back and sides.
I could not breathe without difficulty
and was nearly wild with the desire to
urinate. as compelled to do so every
ten minutes with the passage of pure
blood with the urine. I tried all the
different doctors from far and near, but
they said it was no use to doctor as I
would die anyway. I Mas at the end of
my rope and was so miserable with
pain and the thought that I must die
that words cannot tell how I felt. One
day a friend told me of the wonderful
help she had received from Swamp
Root. She gave me one of your pam
phlets which I read and determined to
try Swamp-Root. After taking half a
bottle 1 felt better. Have now taken
ten bottles and am well as I ever was
thanks to Swamp-Root. I wish to tell
all suffering people that have kidney

Dak Bungalows of India.
The Dak bungalow of India Is a
blessed institution for the weary Dak,
as the natives call the traveler. He
finds these little shelters dotted over
many of the out-of-the-way parts of
the country, generally not more than
one long day's march apart. They
mean warmth when one has been
hilled to the bone by biting winds, or
shelter from the driving rain and hail
storms, the latter so common in north
ern India that planters insure their
crops against them, and so violent
that both men and cattle are often
killed by them. The bungalows usu
ally consist of two bedrooms and a
dining room, with rough outside build
ings providing a kitchen and sheds for
horses and coolies.
