The veterinarian was bandaging the leg of a French poodle when the tele | phone rang, so he asked the visitor to take the message. "IMease tell the doctor," said a wo man at the other end of the wire. "thai- King Cliarles is dead and we would like a death certificate right away." The visitor transmitted the news of royalty demise, then added something about the "tomfoolery of getting a death certificate for a dog." "It may be tomfoolery," said the , veterinarian, "but a lot of people with pet cats and dogs are guilty of it. If n real King Charles was dead and I was making out a certificate to file with the board of health I sli »uld take no mure pains than I shall for that family that has lost a dog. llis age and tl>' .ate of death will be recorded, ji•- iLie disease that carried him off will be described in detail.

"I've encountered many an excuse for 'sidestepping' the collection basket in church," remarked a Jersey com muter, "but the prize excuse came to me last Sunday out iu our town. Next to me in church sat an acquaintance who hud taken out a dollar bill, but when lie saw the collector was a sub stitute for the regular brother he put the money back in his pocket. I taxed him with it good naturally on the way out, and he was very frank. " 'You needn't publish it,' said lie. 'but 1 know that man pretty well. Now, I happen to < we him s<">. and he's dunning me unnece sarily for it. I know him so well that I know if I put that dollar bill In the basket he'd fun I a way to abstract it and pocket it as part of what I owe him. And he'd the way h-Vs built, don't y- u see.'"— New York Globe. Rebuking a Greenhorn. A whist expert discussed at a dinner tin: e overconfident and foolish per sons who think they can learn whist in a year or two. "Such per*--- us should be called to order." the expert said sternly. "I for one am always glad to see them called to order. A young greenhorn stood behind my partner during a game one night. At the end of the hand the greenhorn said: " 'Why didn't you lead hearts? That's what I'd have done.' "My partner smiled and answered: " 'All, but y my young friend, have the world before you and none but yourself to consider. You have no wife and family dependent on you for i bread, ami if you lose heavily no one suffers but yourself. With me it is different; hence I led spades.' " Necessity of Air Baths. The conditions and conventions of our civilization demand frequent bath ing. Any one suspected of avoiding a dally bath would quickly find himself persona non grata in decent society. It is popularly supposed that frequent bathing is essential to health. This is quite untrue. Much of the benefit at tributed to the water is in reality due to the complete exposure of the skin lo the air. The respiratory function I of the skin is of high importance, and, although water may be dispensed j with, closing the pores to air would result in speedy asphyxiation.—New York Medical Journal. A Dreaded Contingency. A young girl of fourteen was taking a trip on Lake Michigan in a small steamer. The lake was somewhat rough, and many were seasick. The girl sat in the bow and was unusually - quiet for her. "Are you feeling sick, ' daughter?" inquired her father. "No; » I don't think I am sick, but I should t hate to yawn."—Life. \ Blocking Him. { "Say, old man," began Borroughs, { "lend me your ear for awhile, will 112 you ?"

Kel ly chose the latter. Now, the prison was ten miles away, and (he oul.\ possible means of gelling tt prisoner there was by driving. As Kelly himself had the only car iu tin place, there was nothing to do but t«> hire it. For some time the constable anil Ills prisoner haggled over lite terms. Kelly stuck out firmly for 30 shil I lings, to be paid in advance, and at 1 last the constable had to consent to j the extortion. Accordingly lltey drove oil and without any misadventures ar rived at the prison. When Uiey had alighted Kelly sudden' ' formed his '. oinpanion that he had changed his tniiul, as the prison wasn't a decent 1 looking place, and v.onld pay the line. | lie thereupon ur-w out the no shil-| lings he had received, counted out the j •JO shillings and paid them over to the inspector. Then, jumping on his car, he drove away, leaving the constable to walk back. A House In Pompeii. In the exhumation of l'ompeii one house was discovered which was evi dently being repaired when the vol canic storm that overwhelmed the city hurled it to the ground.

Vet lie strangely anticipated sou modern unromantic views on the sub ject of marriage. In 1740 he applied to the parents of a young lady for the hand of their daughter, adding, "If 1 know anything of my own heart 1 am free from that foolish passion which the world calls love." Wl 1 at this prosaic proposal was de clined the undaunted Whitelield . ir ricd an elderly Welsh widow "neither rich nor beautiful." This "merry wid ow" did i t make a congenial help mat", a::!

Ringtailii' monkeys, which rank! among the most valuable, commercial- j ly speaking, of the small animals, aro caught iu an interesting way. A co eoanut is split in two and a banana with a piece <>f wood running through it placed lengthwise through the nut, the two halves of which are drawn together by wires. Then a hole is cut just large enough for the monkey's paw to enter. The monkey spies t v tempting nut from his tree. lie hops down, looks it over, sees the hole and smells the banana inside. He is fond of bananas. Putting his paw iu. lie grasps it, but the wood prevents it from coming out. Then the catchers appear, and the monkey runs for a tree. But he cannot climb because of the cocoanut on his paw, and he will not let goof that, so he is captured, pawing wildly at the tree trunk. The Experiment Failed. When a small boy mentioned in Short Stories grows up the scientific curiosity ho displayed may be a valu able possession. Meanwhile his moth er objects to it. "Ma," remarked the boy, "isn't it funny that everybody calls little broth er a bouncing baby?" "Why do you think it's funny, Wil liam?" asked his mother. "Because when 1 dropped him off the porch this morning he didn't bounce a bit; he just hollered." How Toucans Roost. Nothing could be more eccentric to our eyes than the way in which tou cans goto roost. The bird does not "tuck its head under its wing, poor tiling!" and so settle down, but packs itself up in most orderly fashion. The tail is turned forward over the back, in the soft feathers of which the gi gantic bill is hidden. Then the tail shuts down, till semblance of a bird is lost, and one can see nothing but a ball of feathers.—London Standard. Brother Mistake. "Brother Good sole," asked the Rev. IC.
