LAUGHTER AND TEARS.
A Comedy Scene In Which Grief Play­
ed a Leading Part.
“Stage fright la not one of the emo-
tlona which get across the footlights,"
writes Miss Alice Crawford. "Audl-
uces are for the most part as sereue
ly unconscious of It as they are of
other Individual sentiments In the ac-
tors having no relation to the inci­
dents of the play.
“I shall never forget an instance of
this curious insensibility of the crowd.
Once when I was touring one of the
most charming and popular girls of
the company died after only a few
days’ illness. She was one of those
sweet, tranquil natures and had en­
deared herself to us all. Her death
in lodgings In the small provincial
town had an element of real tragedy
in It.
“The news that she was dead reach­
ed the theater In the evening Just as
two of the actors and I were about to
go on for a scene of broad comedy.
We went on the stage with tears lu
„our eyes, and I can still see the face
of onO of those comedians with the
great tears glistening on the paint.
He was dreadfully affected. Try as
be would, be could not control bis
voice, and the tears kept choking him
as be rattled off his lines.
“The audience were convulsed every
time bls voice broke, and It made me
cry more than ever to see the grief
shaking him as be grinned and chaffed
through bls tears. Yet Jhat comedy
scene never went so well before. The
audience never guessed.”— Exchange.
STORY OF A MUD HEN,
And the Man Who Tried to Shoot or
Drown the Bird.
“It is a mighty hard thing to down
a mud hen," said n Portland official.
“Every one knows this homely bird, so
clever that it can dodge the flash of a
gun. making it very hard to kill if
any one ever wanted to kill one.
“A friend of mine who wus a great
hunter, but not acquainted with the
mud hen. was out hunting on the Co­
lumbia sloughs some years ago when
he saw what he thought was some
kind of duck floating on tbe wntcr.
He aimed Ills shotgun and fired, but
tbe bird dived os tbe gun was dis-
charged, and the shot struck the wa-
ter where the bird had been u mo-
ment before. As the smoke cleared
away the hunter snw the bird come to
the surface, and he gave It the other
barrel, with the some result.
“Hie obstinacy was now aroused,
and he determined to kill that bird be­
fore he left the place. He ahot a way
every round of ammunition he had.
but the bird dodged every one and
still floated in the same spot. Iu grout
disgust my friend sat down on the
bank and lit bls pipe. At the flrat puff
of smoke the bird dived again. and
this gave him his Inspiration.
“To make a short story, he smoked
up all his tobacco In an effort to drown
tbe mud hen. but when darkness fell
and he started for home the bird was
still floating In the same old spot”—
Portland Oregonian.

Found a Way ts Hslp.
A worthy old Quaker who lived In a
country town In England was rich
and benevolent, and bls means were
put In frequent requisition for pur­
poses of local charity or usefulness.
Tbe townspeople wanted to rebuild
I i their parish church, and a committee
was appointed to raise funds. It was
agreed that the Quaker could not be
asked to subscribe toward an object
so contrary to bls prlnclplea; but then,
on tbe other band, so true a friend to
the town might take It amiss If be
was not at least consulted on a mat­
ter of such general Interest. So one of
their number went and explained t«
him their project; the old church was
to be removed and such and such steps
taken toward tbe construction of a
new one.
"Thee wast right,” the Quaker said,
“lu supposing that my principles
would not allow me to assist in build
Ing a church. But didst tbee not say
something about pulling down a
church? Thee may’st put my name
down for a hundred pounds.”—Meri-
vale’s “Historical Studies.”
Gautier’s Superstition.
Theophile Gautier, the critic, novelist
and poet, like many another great
man, was superstitious and believed
in the evil eye. Offenbach was hie
aversion, and in this respect a Paris
contemporary tells us that one day the
son and father were walking together
The son. for wickedness’ sake, start
ed a conversation about Offenbach, and
his father gave him to understand that
the subject was disagreeable. Noth­
ing daunted, the lad led Gautier to a
shop window where was exposed a
photograph of the composer.
As they resumed their walk the son
observed, “Well, you see, father, after
all. nothing has happened through
looking nt the photograph.” At that
moment they were turning the corner,
and the son preceded his father. In
full view of the passersby Gautier ad
ministered to his tormentor a paternal
kick, observing, half in anger and half
in humor, "Well, something has bap-
pened.”
Tight Collars.
Writing In the Hospital, London. Dr.
Walford warns everybody against tight
collars.
He considers it remarkable
that uo oue seems to have noticed or.
at any rate, to have laid great stress
on tbe fact that such slight obstacles
to the free circulation of tbe blood
through the vessels of the brain may
adversely Influence tbe health of those
who are in the bnblt of wenrlng tight­
ly fitting neckcloths. “Tbe fact ap­
pears to be well known to veterinary
surgeons, who tell us . that neck con
strlctlon through badly fitting harness
is a causative factor In ‘staggers’ In
horses,” says tbe writer. It seems to
be equally well known that dogs suf­
fer a great deal through having to
wear tightly Atting collars. Is it too
much, then, Dr. Walford asks, to argue
that those of us who wear our own
collars too tightly buttoned may find
In tliut practice some explanation of
symptoms ascribed to other causes?

A Marvel of Insect Mechanism.
The sting of a certain Indian fly of
fers as marked au example of design
in nature us can well be imagined
When seen through a magnifying glass
It Is found to be composed of three
sharp blades folded Into one with
their cutting edges outward cud run­
ning down to oue tine point. When
the fly inserts this up to the hilt in its
victim the three blades fly apart, and
then it is seen that each Inner edge Is
a beautiful saw, worked by six sep­
arate muscles, so that when with­
drawn the instrument rips its way out
with a gush of blood. But now comes
the most curious provision of all. It
would not do to fold up these blades
with the blood adhering to them, so
each blade Is provided at Its base with
a flue brush of hairs growing out of
an oil gland, which provides an anti-
septic secretion to keep the blades
clean.
Our fresh, high grade
drugs will help to make
these remedies more effec-
tive than ever.
Right prices are also
assured.
