A Bernard Shaw Criticism.
Before fame came to him Bernard
Shaw wrote dramatic criticisms for
the London Saturday Review. The
following sample is characteristic of
the man:
“] am in a somewhat foolish posi-
tion concerning a play at the Opera
Comique, whither 1 was bidden this
day week. For some reason 1 was
supplied with a program, so that
never learned the name
At the end of the second
bad advanced about as far as an or-
dinary dramatist would have brought
it five minutes after the
of the curtain or, say, as far as
would have brought it ten
fore that event, Taking advan
the second interval to stroll
the Strand for a little exercise, I un-
fortunately forgot all about my busi-
ness and actually reached home before
it occurred to me that 1 had not seen
~g
dogmatize on the merits of the work or
its performance. I can only offer the
management my apologies.” ~ Every-
body's.
An Obliging Father.
A man who grew rich had a sonof
whom he disapproved, and when the
son was married against the father’s
wishes the father made him an allow-
ance of $20 a week and said that was
all he could have,
Awhile later he was discussing the
watter with a friend of his pioneer
days. “Do you think $20 a week is
enough for the boy?" he asked.
“Well,” replied the friend judicially,
“1 don't know about that.”
“It's a darn sight more than we had
when we started in” argued the fa-
ther.
“Perhaps it is,” said the friend, “but
yon must remember that times have
changed. We used to dig clams for
our dinner.”
“By George,” said the father, “1
guess 1 have been too severe with
kim! I'll be kinder in the future. I'll
buy him a spade and show him where
the clams are.” -Exchange.
His Conciliatory Way.
Mr. and Mrs. Pickaway, although
really fond of each other, had frequent
quarrels owing no doubt to infirmities
of temper on the part of both. Mr.
Pickaway was telling his troubles to
his elderly maiden aunt.
“] try to be as good a husband to
Bertha as 1 know how to be,” he said,
“but we don't seem to get along. It
takes so little to irritate her, and when
she starts to scolding she never knows
when to stop. She takes offense, too,
at such little things.”
“Then don’t say those little things,
Joshua,” said his aunt. “When she
is cross you must try to be concilia-
tory.”
*1 am conciliatory, Aunt Betty,” he
answered. *1 often say to her. ‘Ber-
tha, 1 know the utter useclessness of
trying to reason with you, but will
you listen to me just a minute?” and
she gets mad even at that”’—Youth's
Companion.
They Like Fat Girls In Tunis.
A Tunisian girl has no chance of
marriage unless she tips the scale at
200 pounds, and to that end she com-
mences to fatten when she is fifteen
years old. She takes aperients and
eats a great deal of sweet stuff and
leads a sedentary life to hasten the
process. Up to fifteen she is very
handsome. hut at 1weuty what an im-
mense, unwieldy mass of fat she be-
comes! She waddles, or, rather, undu-
lates, along the street. ber costuiue is

Evoluticn of the Apple.
Appies are pew in the economy of
the world’s use and taste. At the be-
ginning of the last century few varie
ties were known, and we can go back
in history to a time when ail apples
were little, sour and puckery-<crab ap-
oles and nothing else. The crab apple
wus and is in its wildness nothing but
2 rosebush. Away back in time the
wild rose, with its pretty blossoms
that turn to little red balls, apple fla-
vored, and the thorny crab had the
same grandmother.
A Curious Error.
The Rev. Dr. Edward Everett Hale
told how a curious error crept into tie
trauslation of the Lord's Prayer into
the Delaware Indian tongue. The Eng-
lish translator had as an assistant au
Indian who knew English. “What is
‘hallow’ in Delaware?" asked the trans-
lator. The indian thought he said “hal-
loo” and gave him the equivalent.
Therefore the Delaware version of the
Lord's Prayer reads, “Our Father, who
art in heaven, hallooed be thy name.”
As Corrected.

bright grammar class pupil, “correct

Phrenoclogy.
They were newly married and were
calling upon one of the friends of the
bride who had been particularly pleas-
gut upon the occasion of their wed-
ding. The bridegroom, apropos of
ue thing, began to taik about phrenolo-
32 and told how his wife had discov-
cad two very prominent bumps on the
buick of his head. He was proud of
them. So was she, and she passed him
nround that the host and hostess might
feel the bumps and know of their ex-
fstence. Then she explained:
ity."
It was evident that she was proud
of the facts, and so was he. But the
1ind, wished to satisfy himself, so he
got down a phrenological work from
one of his library shelves and after
much labor found the bumps on
chart. Turning to the notes, he read,

“Read it out loud. Please do!”
the host read:
“These bumps are most frequently
found on cats and monkeys.”

der of the visit, which was brief.—

: They Were “Over.”
He was a regular patron of the res-
taurant. Perhaps that is why he felt
justified in making clever remarks to
the walitre.<es, remarks which they
were puzzle! to know how to answer.
One day, however, the smallest and
timidest girl happened to be serving
this irritating customer, and it fell to
her to answer him in kind.
“I'll have some steak,” he said, com-
ing in late for dinner, “and some
squash, and some— Got some baked
potatoes, fine, brown baked potatoes?
“Baked potatoes are all over,” said
the girl.
He leaned back in his chair and
gazed at her quizzically.
“Baked potatoes all over, are they?”
he replied. “All over what?"
“With,” she replied simply.—Youth's
