skating on a pretty lake three miles

noticed that at every farmer's houso
there was erected. In the middle of the
yard, a Kle, to the top of which wna
bound n large, full slienr or gram. "Yt liy

nttulenta Ilroke Them Up.
Thcro ure very few things that es
capo tho notice of college students
when they appear eu masse. This was
demonstrated at nu uptown theater tho
other cvt'iiliiK when a stirring melo
drama wna being enacted, says tbe
Philadelphia Itecord. A group of ten
Ktudents occupied the front row of tho
balcony. Just below them sat a party
of young women. It was when the
tienutlful heroine was about to be
thrust out on the mercy of n pitiless
world that tragedy wns turned Into
comedy. True to feminine cmotlonnl
nature, the feelings of the group of
women aforctuild were so wrought up
that tear began to flow. There was a
hasty struggle for .handkerchiefs, a
deep dive Into pockets and bags and
then n pause. Only one of the six
girls had had the foresight to provide
herself with n handkerchief.
Willi a sympathetic glance of com
prehension she wiped the tears from
her own eyes and then passed the bit
of linen along. One by one the weep
ing maidens dabbed their eyes with the
handkerchief nnd then It was smug
gled hack to the owner and the game
of progressive handkerchief was begun
again. The students saw all this, and
one of them took a handkerchief from
his uockct to wipe awny Imaginary
tears nnd passed It along the line. Loud
"sobs" drew attention to them. In a
moment the house was convulsed with
laughter, and It was only after mana
gerial Interference that the by-play
was stopped and the six maidens with
the one handkerchief were spared fur
ther mortification.
