A Witty Retort.
Hear Admiral Stephen B. Luce is
credited with a good joke upon his
own name. As a young man he was
extremely popular with the smart
set at Newport. On the same ship
with him was a stern disciplinarian,
ever on the lookout for some dere
liction of duty. One evening Luce,
after a round of pleasures, met this
martinet, who remarked sharply:
•‘Mr. Luce, you’re tight.”
•‘Pardon me, sir,” was the quick
retort—“if Stephen B. Luce, how
can he be tight?”—New York Trib
une.
Servian Army Drums.
A curious custom connected with
the Servian army is the manner in
which most of the regiments carry
the big drum. It is not, as in most
countries, slung in front of the man
who plays it. but is placed upon a
small two wheeled cart drawn by a
large dog. which has been so trained
that it keeps its place even through
the longest and most 'tediouss
marches. The drummer takes up a
position behind the cart and per
forms on the instrument as it moves
along.—London Answers.
He Admitted It.
“English as She is .lapped,” is the
title of an article in a decent num
ber of the Oriental Review. ...
The oriental Capacity for using
our mother tongue with strange
twists of unconscious humor is well
known, but few examples are equal |
to this delicious sign on a Japanese
baker’s shop:
“A. Karinura, Biggest Loafer In
Tokyo.”

STOPPING A SNEEZE. |
I
Why PrMMir* Upon Either Lip Will
Halt the Noiay Spasm.
When the feeling comes over tia
which always precedes a sneeze all
we have to do is to lay our finger
across the upper lip, directly be
neath the nose, and press firmly
upon the lip for a fevv seconds. The
same result can he obtained by lay
ing the finger across the lower lip,
just above the chin, and pressing
rather firmly for a few moments.
Either of these acts will not at
tract the attention of any person,
and in almost every instance the
person will be saved the annoyance |
of disturbing the entire audience. |
The physiological reason for this j
seemingly curious interference in ;
nature is quite interesting, although j
but few slop to reason why in this j
as in many other things.
The internal surface of the nasal !
passages is covered by a very deli- j
rate and sensitive mucous mem- j
brane. The surface is quite exten- j
sive, following as it does all the i
inequalities produced by tbe curved j
spongy bones of tbe nose. Only in :
the upper portion is tbe seat of j
smell, as that part only receives j
branches from the first pair of
cranial nerves or tbe nerve known i
as the olfactory nerve,.which is the |
one of smell. The distribution of j
this nerve in the form of an in- '
tricate network is upon the two up- i
per spongy bones.
The olfactory nerve itself does j
not issue from the skull, but rests j
upon a thin facial bone which !
separates it from tin* cavity of the j
nose, and tbe many branches which j
proceed from it pass through this |
bone by means of numerous small |
openings. Tbe many nerves which i
ramify over tbe lower portions of j
tbe delicate nasal membranes and ;
which endow it with sensibility to ;
touch and pain are branches of j
what is known as the fifth pair of ;
nerves.
An irritation from several causes (
applied to the parts where this
nerve is distributed occasions snecz- ;
ing, which is a spasmodic eontrac- I
tion of the diaphragm, which re- j
suits in the expulsion of the irritat- j
ing cause. The pressure described
above simply arrests the irritation,
and the sensation dies without the
outburst of air which produces the
unpleasant sound. It is like arrest
ing a current of electricity by cross
ed wires or some outside influence.
There arc times when this meth
od does not work, but they are rare
and generally due to the fact that
the pressure is not applied soon
enough. Nearly every one has a
warning of several moments that
lie is about to sneeze. If the pres
sure is instantly applied the sneeze
is generally suppressed; - otherwise
it may he too late.
This does not mean that every
sneeze should be suppressed. Only
do this when in church or theater or
! some Mich place. To sneeze aside
i from the sneeze caused by a cold is
I natural and all'ords a relief to the
| nasal passages from dust.—Clevo
| land Plain llcaler.
Nature Was Improving.
James A. McNeill Whistler as
tounded many people by the egotism
he frequently displayed in his con
versation, but those who knew the
artist best realized that many of
his conceited remarks were inspired
by a love of mischief rather than
by vanity. Herq is an example:
At a house party an effusive lady
approached the artist.
“Oh," Mr, Whistler,” she said, “I
have just been up the river, and it
reminded me so much of vour pic
tures!”
“Indeed!” W'histler replied calm
ly. “Then nature is looking up.”
Not a Recommendation,
“Have yon any objection to my
marrying your daughter?”
“No,” replied Mr. Cumrox. “To
be candid, I’ve taken quite a liking
to you.”
“Then I may count on you as a
friend ?”
. “I shouldn’t do anything like that
if I were you. If you introduce
yourself as a friend of mine mother
and the girls will take it for granted
that you haven’t any social standing
whatever.”—Washington Star,
Polo.
Polo is of eastern origin and has
been a favorite pastime in Persia,
Tartary and the frontiers of India
from prehistoric times. The name
of the game varies with the district,
and the rules are not the same op
minor points, though they are sub
stantially alike on the main issues.
China and Japan also have a game
closely resembling the Persian
sport.
Make* Him Mark Time.
“His wife is a business woman,
all right.”
“What makes you say that?”
“She’s installed a time clock in
the hall, and he has to punch it
when he goes out nights and when
he gets back.”—T-os Angeles Tiroes.
