There he was in his library, with a
book in his lap. The Professor had
stuck It out to the end, had diea
without admitting defeat. There was
a hushed and awkward moment.
Some one moved to return the book
to a case. Then it was discoverea
that all of these volumes which stared
to the world and gave to the Profes
sor that setting which he loved, were
painted on the glass of the cases. The
book which was in his lap was his
last. They remembered the suitcases
and the trips to the city.
“He has been selling them off,” some
one spoke the feeling of the group.
“Little by little he has been parting
with them and It broke his heart to
do it.” Now when they speak of the
Professor they picture him copying
on the glass of his bookcases the
backs and titles of those volumes
which he was forced to give up, and
say, “He was a queer man, the Pro-
fessor, but spunky.”

= aged 23, of
wait an hour for the next train.”
In spite of fast driving along crowd-
ed roads Jim and Miss Day talked
gaily all the way in that morning and
ne did not leave her until he had
gained permission to call for her at
five and drive her home. He'd have
to take the car home, anyway. And
that day he took his watch to a first-
rate jeweler’'s and secured the use of
a guaranteed timepiece for the period
required to put his own in condition.
On the way back that evening his
companion complained again about
her difficulty In catching her train
now that her reliable neighbor was
to be married.
“I don't see what a girl nowadays
wants to be married for, anyway,”
sugested Jim.
“Every reason in the world,” was
Miss Day's emphatic rejoinder. “That
ig, if she really cares for the man.”
Jim had a solution to offer for her
difficulty. He told her that he had
a thoroughly reliable watch and that
every day five minutes before it was
time for him to start he would tele-
phone to her.
And so matters rested for a few
months. Meantime Jim called fre-
quently at the house of the Days in
the evening.
Then one day without preamble he
reminded her of what she had said
about getting married. “You said a
girl had every reason in the world to
want to be married if she really cared
for the man. The important thing
then is this—do you really care for
me—or could you possibly bring your-
self to do so?”
And Miss Day, looking very serious
and pretty at the same time, said that
she really believed she cared a greac
weal fo. Jim atready.

Some Figures Lie
a New York statistician. We wish the
professor would provide us with the
figures that prove $36.50 is too much
for a piece of felt with a feather in
it just before Easter. Among
the early Greeks the wearing of
breeches was a mark of slavery. But
now the ladies are starting to wear
the breeches, and
then Nero was a cousin of Uncle Tom.
The amazing revelation
just been announced that an intelll-
gent man has a vocabulary of 5,000
words. Proving that even a smart
man occasionally misses a three-inch
putt. And, perhaps, that certain
large fishes in the tropics climb trees.

Pets Drink Gas and Die
Drinking gas was fatal for pets of
L. Roberts of Marcus Hill. Australia,
recently. Roberts is employed at the
gas works, and took home a small
tank which had been at the works for
some time. On the way home he filled
it with fresh water, which he put into
the troughs for his pet pigs and ducks.
Next morning six pigs and many
ducks were dead and other animals
were ill. The tank contained gas
fumes that the pets consumed as they
imbibed.
Fact Generally Admitted
One of Britain’s popular blond
beauties, a London actress, received in
her dressing room a feminine admirer
who had called to “talk art.” The con
versation had fallen flat. due largely
to the fact that the beautiful blond
would talk of nothing but herself.
Finally the visitor turned in desper
ation to an old standby.
“I suppose,” she said. “that your
great ambition is to play Shakespeare?”
“Well,” said the actress, “he has
written some nice parts.”
