PAULINE WANTED HER TURN Wasn’t Exactly Sympathy That Caus ed Small Girl to Make Pro test to Mother. Little l’aulinc lived up in the n ighborhood of the Thomson school. She enjoyed a reputation of being exceedingly sympathetic, and she would weep over the delinquencies of her erring big brother, who had a weakness for tying cans on dogs' tails and “sicking” cats around the comer. One summer she accompanied her mother, brother and a small mascu line friend to the mountains and while there adopted a tiny black and white kitten. It was her constant companion, living night and day in h r arms. But one morning the two hoys began to amuse themselves by -sing it into a mountain rivulet that trickled before the door. One hoy would give it a pitch, watch it crawl out on the bank mewing, and then the other would take a “go.” Presently Pauline tied to her mother bathed in tears. “Oh, mam* a!" she exclaimed, ‘brother and Billy are throwing mv kitten in the creek!” The mother went out front and proceeded to deliver a lecture. But just as she got to the most impres sive part her eloquence was quenched by Billy, who piped up: “’Deed, now. Aunt Ada, there ain’t nothing the matter with Paul ine except vve did not give her any urn to throw in the kitten herself.” —Washington Star. FUTURISTS NOT IN FAVOR Italian Audience Gave Unmistakable Evidence of Its Disapproval of the Cult. The Florence correspondent of the Berliner Tageblatt, in describing a meeting of futurists at the Teatro Yirdi, in that city, says: “Long be fore any of the futurists appeared on the stage the large audience in dulged in noisy demonstration of dis approval, using torpedoes. The tu mult became greater when Mari netti, Papini, Carra, Sotfiei and their associates appeared. A shower of eggs, potatoes, apples and paper fell upon the artists and the noise continued for two hours. When the storm was at its height Marinetti, with coat collar upturned, staged close to the footlights and eallecTlhe people before him cowards, while Pa pin i gathered apples from the stage floor and threw them back at the shouting people. Then the police stepped in and endeavored to quell the near-riot. A potato struck Mari netti in the eve, hut, like all the others in use on the occasion, it had been boiled and did no great dam age.” WEATHER SUPERSTITION. There used to be a tradition in England that January 25 was a day which indicated the happenings of the rest of the year. In the church calendar it was the day celebrated in honor of the conversion of Saint Paul, but no one seemed to know just what relation this fact had to the weather-predicting feature of the day—although .old writers think there must have been some such re lation. At all events, if the weather January 25 was fair the year was expected to be prosperous. Snow and rain and fogs and cold indicated calamities of one sort or another— war and the death of much cattle among them. QUITE SO. Mrs. Gaddy—Mrs. Smith has so much savoir fare. Mrs. Comeup —Yes, she has a plentv, but it’s all second-hand. NOT FOR THE LUNGS. Mabel-—Do you ever practice deep breathing, Percy? Percy—Only when inhaling a cig arette. —Punch. NOT GUILTY. Visitor—How does the land lie out this way ? Native—lt ain’t the land; it’s the land agents. NEW IDEA. “Hare you any new get-rich-quick ideas ?” “Sure. I’m going to buy a sub urban farm and raise radium.” DASHED HOPES. “I saw some sweeping bargains down town today, my dear?” “Oh, yon did ? What were they ?” “Broom*.” An Only Daughter Relieved of Consumption When death was hourly expect ed, all remedies having failed, and Dr. H.
