A chorus-gitl came into the Casino the other night with a nickel between her teeth. “Take the germy thing out of your mouth !" cried another girl. | «I will as soon as I can get rid of these bundles,” said the first. The conductor gave me iy change after I'd got my skirt all picked up.” + Do you mean to say you pay your, fare ?” exclaimed the second girl. “1 never do.” What, chorus. “Well, hardly ever,” she answered ; “ not more than once out of four times.” To the **How-do-you-do-its” of her mates she explained tat if you sat quite still and looked as it you had paid your fare when the conductor came by, usually he would pass on. “Never give up unless he asks you point blank, personally,” she cautioned. * But how can you manage on the sub- way ?" asked one of the girls. “1 can't.” she said.

A French cabby or trucker is as proud of his whip- crackin’ ability as a young man is of his drinkin’ powers. “There ain't no driver livin’ what can crack a whip like a Frenchman. Walkin’ along the streets of Paris is like walkin’ through a battle—on every side, bang, crack, biff! go the whips. The thing makes you mad. It scares you.

It has four mouthpieces, in each of which a cigar is inserted, For ten seconds the smoke is drawn in, and is then puffed out, the process being repeated every half-minute, While the “inhaling” is going on, the| way in which the filling and the wrapper burn is carefully noted, the ash is ex- amined and the odor of the burning to. bacco observed. The plant from which each of the cigars is made is known, and the one that makes the best showing in |the competition is selected for planting. The test is proving an aid to the Ameri- can tobacco industry by teaching the farmers what kinds of tobacco to plant in order to receive the highest financial re- turns,—Exchange, | HER HOPELESS CASE. | «Her husband is wealthy ?" | oo Yes." | “And yet she is dissatisfied.” “That's just it.
