Bunsen is a lawyer, although, of course, he is known the by Idea, a different though, name. Don’t ever get that this didn’t really happen Just l>e ; cause Bunsen’s real nomination Isn't mentioned. As we were saying. Bunsen used to be pretty much of a kidder. He would even kid his own patient little wife. Those who care to read on down a little farther will learn why he ceased to be a kidder. One evening last week when Bunsen got home his wife had a new hat to show him. It was some hat. Any¬ body could have seen that it was the Anal phrase in female headgear. But Bunsen started in to make fun of it. He said it looked ns if it had been trimmed by a cross eyed milliner on an empty stomach. And he made a lot of other disparaging remarks that were extremely harassing to poor Mrs. Bunsen. "D’Je buy it sight unseen?” he in¬ quired. “Say. how much do they pay the girl that sold you that? She ought to have a raise. Any girl who could put that one over a customer must be something of a smooth saleslady, I’m here to remark.” Mrs. Bunsen was almost in tears. Bunsen had to go into the other room to have a quiet laugh at her expense. Oh, he was the great kidder. all right. The next day, though, he had forgot¬ ten all about the hat The day after that he was reminded of his little Jokefest Mrs. Bunsen handed him a slip of paper when he came home to get his victuals that evening. It was a bill for retrimming that hat; $18.34 it came to. Bunsen paid it without a murmur and said the revised edition of the hat was just exactly right. He isn’t mak¬ ing fun of hats any more.-Cleveland Plain Dealer. NOTED ANAGRAMS. Ingenious Transmutation of Names of Well Known Persons. Anagrams that transmute the names of well known men and women a™ orten startlingly appropriate. could be better in this way than these announcements, evolved from two great statesmen’s names when the reins of power changed hands: Glad¬ stone. “G leads not!” Disraeli, “I lead, sir!” Quite as happy is the comment on the devoted nursing of Florence Nightingale, whose name yields “Flit on, cheering angel.” Among those that are most often quoted we may men¬ tion Horatio Nelson. "Honor est a Nilo:” Charles James Stuart. "Claims Arthur’s seat;” Pilate's question. ••Quid est veritas?” (“What Is truth?”), answered by “Est vlr qui adest” (“It is the man here present”); Swedish nightingale, “Sing’high, sweet Linda;’ - David Livingstone, “D. V., go and visit Nile;” the Marqniss of Uipon (who re signed the grand mastership of Free masons when he became a Komanlst). •R. 1. P., quoth Freemasons;” Charles, prince of Wales, “All France calls. Oh, Help!” Sir Roger Charles Doughty Tichborne. baronet, “Yon horrid butch¬ er Orton, biggest rascal here,” and many shorter specimens, such as tele¬ graph, “great help;” astronomers, “no more stars” and “moon starers:” one hug. “enough;” editors, “so tired;” tournament, “to run at mep;” peniten¬ tiary, “nay, I repent;’’ old England, “golden land;” revolution, “to love ruin;” fashionable, “one-half bias;” lawyers, “sly ware;” midshipman, “mind his map;’’ poorhouse, "Oh, sour hope;” Presbyterian, “best In prayer;” sweetheart, “there we sat;” matrimo¬ ny, “into my arm.”—Chambers’ Jour¬ nal. Air and Water “Cure*.” It Is a remarkable fact that, as with various natural so called “mineral wa ters” so with various "airs” which people find beneficial, no one has yet clearly and decisively shown, in the first place, whether they exert any chemical effect of n special kind on the people who seem to benefit by drinking the one or breathing the oth¬ er. Still less has any one shown what is the particular chemical ingredient of the air or of the water of any given resort which exerts the beneficial ef¬ fect attributed to that air or that wa¬ ter—Sir E. Ray Lankester in LondoD Telegraph. Rrown—What's wrong? You seem worried. Jackson—I am. I wrote two notes—one to my broker asking him if be took me for a fool and the other to Miss Golding asking her if she would be mine. While I was out somebody telephoned “Yes,” and I don’t know which of ’em it was. *
