surface water drams into it, is as clear as crystal and

much cooler than sea water and has an abundance of fine, hard-lie I fish, which are highly esteemed by the Filipi os (. the region. They are game fish and some reach a size that makes their capture with light tackle a mater of some difficulty. The clear water of the lake has another marvel that is well worth seeing. Some comparatively modern eruptions of the volcano covered some towns, in two of which only the church roofs are visible. Others are completely submerged, and on days when the surface of the lake is unruffled one can look down into the streets of these submerged towis and see the fish dart through doors and windows of once populus barrios. The water is twenty-five feet deep, but so clear that every detail is vfble. Manila Times. j A DIFFERENCE.

Incident That Made a Man

Queer For Awhile. "One nijjht," said a lawyer,

was preparing some tedious pleadings which had to be submitted to court the following morning, and, knowing that I would need every moment of my time, I locked mv-

self in a small private consultation I room in(l'e rear of mv suit, where

no chanco caller could interrupt me. The rviii is very diminutive, yith only one window, looking into a court, and no furniture except a table and two or three chairs. Well, I worked on steadily hour after hour long after the city had settled

into slräjV and. silence. The build1 hit: wasTso still I could hear even an

"As I did so my eye3 happened to fall on a lighted cijar stump lying on the carpet not four feet away, and I stopped stock still, frozen with amazement. I do not smoko. I had been sitting for houra in thnt little locked room. I could swoar that no one had entered. "The window was tightly closed, yet there

'.right at my feet lay a half con

sumed cigar with a great live coal still glowimj at the end. It seems ridiculous to confess, but a thrill of horror ran through me like a galvanic shock. A hallucination of any kind is an appalling thing; it makes no difference how grotesque or homely the subject. It carries such frightful suggestion of breakdown in one's mental engine room. "Well, I finally summoned up enough nerve to stoop down and examine the stump, and what do you think it was? Why, a tin foil capsule from the top of an ordinary quart bottle of mucilage.

New England. Tradition says that there were certain things about his st&X at the Milford taTern which he did not enjoy. The tupper et before him consisted of boiled meat and potatoes. BGt wa not pleased with the meal tad asked for a" bowl of bread and milk. The landlord brought the new order,and a broken pewter spoon witlTwhieh to eat it. 'IIave you no better spoons than this?"-asked General Washington. "H's the best I have in the houso, sir," replied the host "Send rao the servant," said h excellency. "Here's 2 shillings.

Strong Words. Big word pas3 for sense with some jeplp anf sometimes may bo very successfully used when nothing else will answer, says an English writer. Thus when a man, in great alarm, ran to his minister to tell him he could see spots on the sun and thought the world must bo coming to an end, "Oh, don't be afraid' said the good minister, "it's nothing but a phantasmagoria." "Is that all?" said the frightened man, and then he went away relieved. A vcrv smart lawyer some time since bed the misfortune to lose a case for a client who had every reaEon to expect success. The client, a plain old farmer, was astounded by

the long bill of costs and, hastening to the lawyer's office, said, "1 thought you told me we should certainly gain that suit?" "So I did," answered the lawyer, "but, you see, when I brought it up there before the judges they Eaid it was a quorum non judice." "Well, if they said it was as bad as that," replied the old farmer, "I don't wonder we lost it" And he paid the costs and a big fee besides without another murmur.
