HOW THE RAIN CAME.
A Tarrlfrta Eimt traaa;r la

For a real lively matinee perform
ance the coming of tlie rainy season In
Cb Philippine has no end of right to
M consider
Alt if the experience of one wom
an to supposedly arrived during the
dry season:
Seated at ber window she could bear
a roaring tattoo In the grove of abaca
valma to the south. The noise neared,
roae, thundered.
Long, lithe cocoanuts began an lnex
pltcabie bending to and fro, their tops
circling In trembling descent almost to
the earth, then twinging back to the
prlng of the bow tense trunks In
movement exaggerated and violent, like
that of some stage tern pout
Ont In the grove, beaten, trampled
down, there advanced Into the open a
blade wall of rain, perpendicular from
earth to sky. Ahead of it dust, twigs,
rnbblsh, suddenly ascended to heaven
In rotary spirals. Trees were flayed of
their leaves. Roofa flew up like gigan
tic bats.
Then her own bouse, strongly built,
shook ag with earthquake. The thatch
of the roof sprang vertical, like that
stiffens with fear, and between the In
terstlces she saw the muddy sky
stream by.
powder of debris, of dry rot, snow
d. Down upon the table, the books,
the chairs, little lizards, nnperched,
struck the floor with a squeak like that
of a mechanical doll, remained as dead
for a long minute, then scampered
rrnm the room and up the walls
again. Great black spiders, centipeds,
scorpions, fell; sometimes a large rat
Then the nlpa clicked back to posl
tlon as a box Is shut Breathless si
" lence, a heavy Immobility, petrified the
T. world. There came three or four de-
tached. resounding raps upon the roof,
" and suddenly a furious roaring beating
? as of atones coming down, great stones
' , chuted In thousands, In millions, and
? f the church, the plaza, the mountain,
i : the whole land, disappeared In a yel
f low awlrl of water. McClure's Maga-

GOUDEAU'S SHEEP.
It Matched Hla Dog and laUaa.d thm
Tax Collector.
Emile Ooudeau, a celebrated charac
ter of Paris, was one of the most con
firmed bohemlans that ever lived.
There Is a story of him and a cer
tain black spaniel which followed him
with the faithfulness with which the
historic little lamb attached Itself to
' the historic little Mary. Goudeau and
' the dog. In fact were never separated
It dawned upon the tax gatherer of
the neighborhood that Goudeau had
not paid bis dues for the "Inferior
brother."
; He approached him, therefore, In as
j friendly a apirit as possible, being, lu
' deed,' an old acquaintance, and said,
t ! M, Ooudeau, I must ask you to pay
- your tax for the spaniel."
The bohemlan was Immensely sur
prised, or affected to be. "But don't
' ' you know, my dear sir," be said In a
' ' tone of remonstrance, "this Is a sheep
' dog, useful to me In my work and con-
- sequently exempt from the tax?"
, "But yon are no shepherd," returned
I the tax gatherer; "you are a poet."
"No shepherd!" replied Goudeau.
4 "Every poet Is a shepherd, ilnve you
not beard of Virgil aud Theocritus"
The poet would have recited twenty
J other names if the tax gatherer, alarm
. ed at such a display of learning, bad
not stopped him. "But at least you
. " have no sheep," be snld.
"No; I admit Unit," said Goudeau.
U "It la because I am too poor. But I
will rectify that."
And be did. Next day he was ob
served promenading the streets of
; Montmartre with the same old black
spaniel, but with a newcomer In the
'shape of a real, live, weolly sheep.
London Sketch.
The Word "Cutler."
"Cutler," according to Its preseut use,
should mean a man who makes things
that cut, but really it has no more to
do with "cut" than "cutlass" and "cut
let" have, which 18 just nothing at all.
"Out" has some Teutonic origin, but
"cutler" comes through French from
the late Latin "cultellarlus," which
meant either a soldier armed with a
knife or a knlfemaker, and "cultellus,"
a little knife, was the diminutive of
"culter," which, among other things,
meant a plowshare or "coulter." "Cut-
lass" comes from the same source, and
"cutlet'! Is "cotelette," a little rib.
One Thins Lacking1'
Hi "I hear," Bald HI Tragedy, "that
f while" you were playing In one of the
'country towns a fire broke out In the
"theater."
'7 "Yes," said Low Comedy, "aud there
'' might have been a horrible panic but
for one thing."
" "What wus that?"
, "There weren't enough people In the
audience to create one," Moonshine,
The Regular Chare.
, "I've come to pay my bill," said the
patient" "120, I believe?"
! "Yes," replied Dr. Soakem, "making
a total of $122."
; "Er I don't quite understand."
; "That brings It up to date, including
today. I charge 2 for office visits, yon
" know."-I'hlludelphla Ledger.
A Loophole.
"When In doutt," said tho weather

disagreeable."

. Approval?
"Do you think they approved of my
I sermon?" asked the newly appointed
?, rector, hopeful that he bad made a
good Impression on his parishioners.
"Yea, I think so," replied his wife;
"they were all nodding."
When Schumann was In love he
wrote, "I wish I were a smile, that I
might play about your cheeks."

I strictest economy must be exercised la

WHEN REST IS NEEDED.
PmIIbs ( lacrrtalaty la Perfarm-

wondering whether they have dons

to consider the advisability of a rest"

sign, to my mind, that the system is
becoming overtaxed than this reeling
of uncertainty.
"I was staying with a friend toe
other night-spending the night with
him. In fact He's a man whom I
know pretty well, and I thought at
dinner and through the evening, from
little nervousness in his conversation
and manner, that things weren t all
right with him, but I wasn't abso
lutely convinced till edt!uie approach
ed. We were sitting upstairs In his
study, his family having retired, and
be asked me to excuse him while he
saw that the house was locked up.
It was a still night, nnd I could follow
bis progress around the various rooms
on the first floor. He seemed to me
to be unnecessarily long, and, without
being Inquisitive. 1 really became In
terested to know whether he wasn't
making the rounds twice. Finally I
heard him go Into the parlor, a room
I was sure he had visited at least once
before. When he came upstairs I
asked laughingly how many times be
had seen that each window was fas-
ened. But be wasn't lu a laughing
mood at all.
"It's a funny thing, old man,' he
said, 'but I've been fool enough to look
at each window two or three times
Do you know, It would strike me after
I bad left a room that perhaps I hadn't
put the catch properly on oue of the
windows there, aud back I'd have to
go to make sure. Being in there, I'd
examine the other windows again. It'
been that way for half a dozen nights.
Somehow doing these things doesu
seem to make the Impression on me
that one would expect. This lack of
sureness Isn't confined to locking win
dows either. I find myself at the
office wondering whether I hava given
auch and such instructions Instruc
tions that are so much a part of my
dally work that I suppose I give them
mechanically and then forget them
Nine times out of ten I And everything
Is all right but I'm not quite happy
till I do. I guess I must be getting
old maldlsb In my old age.'
"It was my turn to be serious then.
I explained to him that his forgetful

"I got htm away from cares for
bit, and the next time I saw him he
laughed as heartily over the Incident
of the much locked windows as I pre
tended to. Ho doenu't kuow It, but he

story that It may serve as a warning

Although WhlstlT did not care for

knowledge for themes. "Symphony In

was to pnlnt n grand concerto-like pic

How lie Remembered.
Professor Huxley had a fuuny way
of remembering certain anatomical de
tails of the human heart. On the left
aide of the heart there Is a valve with
two flaps resembling a bishop's miter
and known as the mitral valve. The
corresponding valve on the right side
has three flaps. The only means by
which be could remember their re
spective positions, said Huxley, with
his skeptic's humor, was by the re
flection that a bishop could never be
In the right.

"Life la full of contrariness and non

the days were long and deadly, but
now Unit I um free and life might be
one endless dream of gayety I hare to

Safe.
"Now, dear," snld the hew of the

"safe from starvation. Here's a check
