The first thing’ I did het STRONG: ‘ONE ECONOMY. A Younig-Philadelphia Husband’s Attempt at Carpentering. 4 newly-married man who had never ‘had much experience in doing small jobs about the hotischold, says.the Phil adelphia Record, told several of his as: sociates of his first attempt to gain his wife’s approval by doing-a favor for her. “You know I am very fond of dogs,” fox terrier pup, and he was so full of ginger that he chewed up everything nearly worried. my wife's pet cat to} ‘death. ‘Then she that I get a carpentér to build a pén in the yard for him. But I was strong on the econFomy lay, and resolved to build the order 12 feet. of wire. netting. It was ‘the kind with holes in it about two ‘inches square. ‘This. cost me three dollars. “When I got home I found I had to have four posts, each five feet long; 6 pend these cost me two dollars. After I ST oot the posts planted I had no hammer and nails. . These cost me $2.20. “J worked, hard at. the job for several evenings, and finally completed it. 'Then I called my wife to bring out the ‘pup, and I also expected to receive her congratulations. .Triumphantly I placed the dog inside the inclosure and then waited to have my wife bestow her praise. The pup-walked around the inup the coarse netting as easily as if it had been a stepladder and fell over on the outside, and he’s been at Tiberty ever since.” HIS HEART, DISLOCATED. ; Wantea Prof. Stratton to Find It with the X Rays. A good story is going around the campus of the University of Chicago. On ‘a recent Saturday afternoon while Prof. Stratton, of the department of physics, together with an assistant, was 4 busy, working over the anode-cathode-Xray problem, and incidentally wondering whether, Chicago was beating Hlinois—hisalma mater—down at Champaign, a timid knock was heard at the laboratory door. The knocker, was told to enter the sanctum, the floor of which was strewn with the debris of: tubes which had been tested and found wanting. When the professor looked up from his work he beheld a middle-aged man, who appeared.to be of the laboring class. He-was accompanied by a friend. He anxiously inquired whether he had reached the place where the X rays were dispensed free of charge. He was told there was none on tap, but.a new consignment. was looked for every minute from which ‘great results were expected. The questioner then tolda pafrom “dislocation of the heart,” and wished the “new light” turned on to ascertain the exact whereabouts of that body., He was.told that nothing could said he. “Well, I purchased a fine little . © ' closure and then deliberately climbed . thetic tale of. how he was suffering} .
