Some people complain so much i

When a woman is referred to as

she is very popular with the men.

j Consideration \
Coach—Now, ladies and gentlemen.
If you will take your places we will
rehearse the parts in the play. Miss
Drew, please go to the left of right
center.
Miss Drew—What do you call left of
right center? Does it mean when
you're looking at the audience, or
when you're looking at the stage?
Coach—It means right next to the
small table on your left. No, not there.
Your left, 1 said. \rou left hand is the
one that has the diamond ring on.
Miss Drew—Oh, do 1 have to take
that off?
Coach—It Isn't necessary. Now, miss
Phillips.
Miss Phillips—I wanted to ask you,
please, whether you think that I should
wear pink or light blue?
The Coach—1 don’t see—
Miss Drew—-I am going to wear pink
and Maine has decided to have blue.
Miss Phillips—Then I suppose I
shall have to dres in white. That
means that I shall have to have a dress
made for the performance for my old
one positively isn't fit to be seen any
where. Would you have an overskirt
if you were I ?
Maine—I am going to have mine
made with a simulated overskirt and
seven gores. It is going to be lovely.
Miss Drew—1 want a panel down the
front, but really—
Coach—If you are ready, gentlemen.
Mr. Hardy will stand at the other
end of the table, waiting for his cue.
There!
Hardy—Excuse me a minute, but I
talking about dress, am 1 supposed to
wear a frock coat ami higli hat in the
last scene with Miss Drew?
Coach—Certainly.
Hardy—Well, where the dickens
shall I put my hat?
Coach—The maid. Miss Davis, takes
it as you enter. Now, if you—
Miss Davis— Is my costume the reg
ulation French oue ?
Coach—Evidently you have not
locked at your part.
Miss Drew—Y'ou are to furnish the
comedy element, Miss Davis, and wear
calico and a big apron. Y’ou have
sleeves rolled up and flour on your
arms.
Miss Davis—Oh, I don’t believe I’ll
like that a bit. I wuint to dress up
smartly, with bows on my apron.
Miss Harrison—I'll take that part,
then, and you may have the part ol'
the younger sister.
Miss Davis—What does she wear, if
you please?
Miss Harrison—A ball gown. Not a
blue one, because Maine has that
color; not pink, because that’s Miss
Drew’s; and not white, because that is
Miss Phillips'.
Miss Davis—And I can’t wear yellow
or green or lavender. I’ll wear red
Miss Drew—We have to sit on the
davenport together and red will clash
terribly with my pink.
Miss Davis—Then we'll have to sit
somewhere else. 1 know just how I'll
have it made. It'll be a dream! I'm
glad I’m not to be a maid.
Hardy—The maid Is the best part in
the plity and the younger sister isn't
on for more than five minutes.
Coach—Now, if we're ready: Please
begin. Mr. Lawrence, with your open
ing sentence: "We are all here waiting
tor the bride and groom—”
Lawrence—Well, say, look here! i !
didn't know it was supposed to be a
wedding. What do I wear? Evening
suit?
Coach—Certainly.
Lawrence—Well, great Scott! I’ve
got too stout tor mine. Won't a tux
. uo do just as well?
Hardy—I should say not. You're
supposed to be an usher at the wedding
ol a millionaire.
Lawrence—That's easily fixed. Let’s
change the hour of the wedding and
have it in the afternoon. Then we
can all wear frock coats.
Aliss Davis—Then we can't wear
evening gowns. 1 don't think it would
be nice g bit.
Coach—It would upset the whole
plot. You will have to gut a new
dress suit. I’m afraid. Now, il you
please, Aliss Drew.
Aliss Drew—Where do I stand?
Aliss Drew- You don’t stand at all.
You sit on the floor of lott ol right
center.
Aliss Drew*—Sit on the floor! In the
gown!
Coach—You won't hurt your dress
any, 1 assure you.
Lewis—It isn't half as bad as it is
for me to have to come in w ith my best
overcoat covered with flour to look
like snow. I've a great mind to wear
my ol'1 one.
Marne—And I have to throw my hat
down where it may be stepped on
Coach -Now, if you please—
Aliss Phillips—Oh, do we wear
wraps? i ni going to come in wearing
my new red cloak.
Coach—You are on the stage all
the time and don’t wear a coat.
Aliss Phillips—Then let’s change il
so that 1 can. It will be easy to do
that.
Coach—We won’t have the time
It’s 11 now. '1 hat will be all tonight !
1 think. Don’t forget the rehearsal J
Thursday, and. please, look at your
pails before you come.

Snake Bites Man and She Slicks
Out Deadly Venom.
Joseph Eberhardt. of San Francisco
Attacked by Reptile While on
Fishing Trip—Heroic Treat
ment Prevents Death.
Mayfield, Cal.—Cutting deep Into
the fle.sh of the leg of her father, after
he had been bitten by a rattlesnake,
getting down upon her hands and
knees, putting her lips to the wounds
made by her knife and the fangs of
the poisonous reptile, Anita Eberhardt
twelve years old, sucked the venom
from the wound of Joseph Eberhardt
and saved his life. Then, half carry
ing and half dragging him, she got
him to camp a quarter of a mile away,
where, with difficulty, she placed him
on the back of a saddle horse and
' farted him to the nearest farmhouse,
eight miles away.
Arriving at the farmhouse, Eber
hardt fell in a dead faint and was
herr'ed to a hospital In Palo Alto.
Eberhardi is a harness maker of
Ran Francisco, and with his daughter
has been camping at (lie old Hub
hard & Carmichael mill in a remote
section of the Ran Mateo mountains.
Thpy arrived in (bis city and rented
a horse that the girl might ride and
that they might pack their camp out
fit to the old tni’l.
They started on a fishing trip to
Rock creek, three-quarters of a mile
from their tent. Hardly had they
gone a quarter of a mile when Eber
hardt was bitten in the calf of the
log by a big rattler. He killed the
reptile, but soon began to weaken a
‘he poison took effect. The girl mad'
him lie down, and, after handaein
the leg above the fang marks, toot
a large knife and made deep incisions
into the flesh.
After her father was cn his way to
ihe ranch house the girl sot nut on
foot to folloty and reached the ranch
in the afternoon.
Eberhardt Is recovering, but physi
cians say that had it not been for the
presence of mind of his daughter and
her prompt actions he would have
died in the mountain wilderness. They
said all the poison had been taken
from the man's body by the heroic
treatment of the girl.
This is the second rattlesnake er
rprionee in the family. In 1902, whet:
they lived in Bisbee, Ariz., Mrs. Eber
hardt was bitten by a rattlesnake.
Rhe received immediate treatment
and all the poison was drawn from
her system. The fright she experi
enced from her encounter with the
snake, however, affected her so that
she died in a few weeks.
CURE FOR IDIOCY FAILED
Operation of Prof. Payr. Dean of Ger
man Hospital, Not the Success It
Was Reported to B?.
Berlin.—The cure of an Idiot boy
by Professor Payr, the dean of the
surgical faculty of Beipsic university,
was reported In a cable dispatch a
few days ago. Professor Payr, it was
then announced, had transplanted a
portion of the thyroid gland taken
from the child’s healthy mother to the
blood vessels of the patient's kidneys.
The child had been born without a
thyroid gland and had consequently
remained mentally undeveloped.
After the operation, so the report
of the ease said, mental regeneration
at once set in. and after a month’s
observation the patient was sent
home by the surgeon ns thoroughly
sound in mind and body. Unfortu
nately the cure turns out now to
have been on'y partial, for afterward
a reaction set in.
The engrafted mm-<el of thyroid
gland only produced its juices lor a
time ami then rapidly deteriorated,
leaving the patient as lie vas before
Surgical experts have now come to
the conclusion (hat Idiocy can only
be temporarily relieved when the
thyroid gland Is entirely missing.
