His Threat. "Man overboard!" shouted an excited paisenger on an Atlantic liner, as he hastily left his place at the dinner table and scrambled up thecompanion Way. An affrighted crowd of ladies and gentlemen followed him. He was wildly expostulating with the captain on deck when they surrounded him with eager inquiries. "Where Is he? Who is he?" they manded, and the originator of the scare laid his hand on his breast and laid, with melodramatic air: "Here he is! I am the man overbored. I have been compelled to sit four days at the same table with three men who can't talk about anything but golf. I want my place changed, or I'll get out and walk."

WROTE FAMOUS POEM THERE!

Milton's Cottage at Chalfont St. Giles the Shrine to Which Numberless Pilgrims Go. London. Milton's cottage at Chalfont St Giles, the shrine of numberless pilgrims, the pretty spot to which travelers journey from the other side of the world, is particularly attractive just now, with its climbing vines in all their fresh young beauty, its latticed windows open to the May sunshine, its garden sweet with oldfashioned flowers, its orchard white with cherry blossoms. It has been altered but little since Milton lived there, being still the "pretty box" that his friend Ellwood, the Quaker, took Once Home of Great Writer. for the blind poet when he wished to le&ve London to escape the plague. The room in which he sat and wrote is now a small museum, containing letters, pictures and various editions of his works. We can easily imagine it as it must have been on that day when the two friends were talking to gether, and Milton produced the poem he had lately written, asking Ellwood to read it at his leisure. It was as Ellwood says, "that excellent poem, entitled 'Paradise Lost'," and then he continued: "After I had, with my best atten tion, read it through, I made him an other visit and returned him his book with due acknowledgement of the favor he had done me in communicating it to me. He asked me how 1 liked it and what f thought of it, which I modestly but freely told him; and after some further discourse about it, I pleasantly said to him: 'Thou hast said much here of Paradise Lost, but what hast thou to say of Paradise Found?'" Milton's cottage is at the end of the picturesque irregular village street. Its windows look out on fields and hedgerows and on the fragrant garden which seems to be but a part of them. The back of the house joins on to other houses, in appearance hardly less interesting than itself. In one of them Breakspeare, Milton's publisher, once lived. It is still a charming place in spite of the fact that one of its rooms has become a butcher's shop; that joints of meat hang in one of its windows. Another house calls itself "The Old Cottage," and claims to be the oldest in the village. This is a shop, too, but of far more artistic quality, a curiosity shop, with all sorts of quaint things, peculiar to the county or connected with its worthies. The hack windows look out on the cherry orchard which stretched from Milton's cottage to Breakspeare's farm. It is said that Milton used to find his way thither through the orchard, guilding himself by the tree trunks. In fancy one could see the blind poet stepping slowly through the rich grass, holding out his hands to touch the familiar trees. WOMEN IN CLIMBING FEAT Scale Mt.

TO MAKE STUDY OF MONKEYS

Important Experiments, in the Interests of Science, Shortly to Be Undertaken. Monkey politicians and ,orators and "simian" prima donnas may be a common thing in the course of a few years if an experiment to be made by scientists proves successful. According to the Journal of the American Medical association scientists who have struggled for years to prove or disprove the Darwinian theory, and incidentally have worked out medical problems and cures with the aid of monkeys, are now planning to establish a monkey farm on the Canary islands, where the simians may be more closely studied. Fear that in a few years the monkeys will be almoet extinct has caused the movement for the experimental station. Scince and medicine would sustain a severe loss if such a state of affairs should exist, says the Journal. Tne "primates' are to be transported from Africa and allowed to live in their natural state. A study will be made of their language and their ability to learn to talk, gesture and sing. They will be taught color perception, and the influence of certain colors upon the nerves of the

A little village has long existed on the Cape of Shima in Japan the name of which means the "Settlement of Nymphs." In this village woman is the predominant partner. The chief industry is pearl fishing and the women are the fishers. The men stay at home and do the housework. Some of the men became discontented recently and began to practice diving, with the idea of becoming pearl fishers themselves. The women, dreading their competition, ordered them to discontinue their diving, and when they refused, declared a boycott against them. They were chased from their homes, and had to take up their abode in a camp outside the village. The men have petitioned parliament for their rights, and in the meantime the local police are doing their best to bring peace between the contending sexes. Youth's CompanIon. And She Couldn't Slap Him. A teacher in a tenement district hurried from the school to find the mother of a pupil who had been taken ill. "Can 3'ou show me where Mrs. An gelo Scandale lives?" she inquired of a cherub transplanted from the sunny south to a dark sunless alley. Yes, teach", I show you," and a willing, sticky hand dragged -her on with such speed as to make her stumble over an Italian dame seated on the threshold. After the teacher's breathless flight toward the clouds the little hand stopped tugging. "There where Mees Scandale live," indicated the horizontal arm and finger, "but she downstair sitting on the step," finished the smiling lips. Making Fun for Fechter.

LOOKING AT THE OTHER SIDE

Granting That Rolling Stone Gathers No Moss, There Are Other Things to Acquire. A bright young man, twitted with being a rolling stone, and with having suffered the ill-success of gathering no moss replied to his tormentor with the remark: "A rolling stone may gather no moss but it acquires a mighty fine - polish." Perhaps the youth was right. There are better things than money and the right sort of polish is one of them. For one kind of polish we would gladly advise our friends to exchange any hopes of getting moss. That kind of polish it is that makes the world go round. Nor is it necessary that one be a rolling stone in the accepted sense of the words. A pebble, but little agitated by the crystal clear water above it, will gain as fine a polish ao the stone' which is ground beneath the relentless moving glacier or the rending avalanche. 'To this class of people who gain polish but no moss the pebbles who fulfill quiet destinies in the bed of the slow-moving stream some words of comfort should be addressed. They hear the birds tell of the great boulder bedded win the banks of the wnile, they know not that they are gathering the signs of duty well done; that, as long as they stand firm at their posts and guide the gentle river to its appointed place they are serving as high and as honorable a purpose as those which gather moss or which acquire polish by speedy motion. Aggressiveness is not the only virtue. Columbia State. Long Fagpoe at Vancouver. T1P prpPHon of a fir flacnole in front Qf the provincial courthouse at Vancouver, B.

In September, 1913, it was moved on rollers to its final location. The flagpole is 208 feet in length, 36 inches in diamGtGr at the base and ten inches at the top, and when ready for erection weighed about ten tons. Surmounting the pole is a four-foot globe and a 20-foot weathervane in the shape of an urrow. Engineering Record. Billy Manning. They tell many stories relating to the ready wit of the late Billy. Mannine:, but probably hone better execsplified it than the following: Manning and Dan Bryant, eaoii heading his own traveling company, met at a junction, and in the course of conversation it developed that each was to play the same town at an early future date, and Bryant r5quested that Manning "announce" his (Bryant's) forthcoming appearanc. which Billy promised he would do. A couple of weeks later the famous Ethiopian entertainers again met, and Manning said that he had played the town already mentioned on the previous evening. "Did you 'announce' me?" said Bryant. "I was just going to," said Manning, "when the fellow got up and went out." Chicago Journal. Tom's Two Worries.
