Amusing itury of Late Phil Inm-
An amusing story is told of the
into Phil May, tho famous English
etrtoonist, und 0. conjurnr at the fair
lt Stratford-on-Avon. Phil Was in
the erowd which had gathered to
watch the vary clever gentleman who
wal wrapping up aoverclgna and h-glf
crowns in pieces of paper and Bcll-
ing them for 2 shillings. The
"sharp" had a, beautiful face-such
a face as Phil May loved to draw.
50 he sketched him furtively. But
the gentleman saw him, and made o.
apcechjorthwith: "If that there cele-
britsd portrit painter with the tight
breaches on will 'and up the picter,
the equally oelebrlted benefactor to
'oomanity wot is givin’ away quids
for coppcrs will reward him aceordf
inglyl" he shouted.
Phil. with a twinkle in his eye,
handed up the drawing. The conjur-
er was delighted with he sketch, and
pinned it to the tallboard ef his
cart. With another ,preliminary speech
he threw three sovorelgns and several
half crowns into a piece of paper,
screwed it up and handed it to the
artist. "You’ll be president of tho
bloomln’ R’yal Academy some dye,
young mari," said he "Here,
catch!"
“A bargalri's a bargain," said Phil,
walking ofi with the packet of gold
and silver. _
He confessed afterward, when ha
opened the packet. and found two
pennies :ind n halfpenriy In it, that
it was tho most entertaining com-
mission lic had over been paid for.

Chicago still holds the champion-
ship as the 1li\'nr1~_c city of the Unit-
ed Status. lt is the liomn of /1,3ii
persons who have dissolved the bonds
of mari-iugo by the Process of 1a'.v
and who urn still single. New York
ranks next to the Windy City, but
although its population is greater
than that of the western metropolis
it can boast of only 2,146 residents
who have passed through the divoice
mill and have riot. married again.
Thi; (‘li\ie'n;.w Record-Herald has com-
piled iiitc-iw-stiiig statistics in r<"gni'(l
to the iiunibz-r of divorced pcoplo in
tho priiicipiil cities of the United
States. Ilultiiriore, according to the
Record-llnralrl's tabulated stair-nicnt,
luis 988 divorced persons among its
rusirlrmts, about hall' ns mniiy as San
l-‘i-iiiirisco, St. Louis, Indianapolis,
Boston, Knnsns City, Cleveland and
Louisville nll lend Baltimore, while
Washington and New Orleans arc not
fur behind tlic Diaryland city. It ll
estimated by the Rcvord-Herald that
there arc now 51,538 divorced per-
sons in the United States, of which
82,205 are women and 19,333 are
men. The excess of divorced women
over divorced men is explained on tho
theory that men who have been scpaf
rated from their wlvea by the courts
are more npt. to rc-marry than wo-
man who have passed through the
divorce mill. It is probable that
thorn arn more people in the United
Statue who have resorted to the di-
vorce courts than Tho Record-Her
ald’s estimate would indicate. The
divorce mills in the Far Wcstem
States have been working overtime
for sovcriil years and must have Hepa,-
rntod many couples that are not ln-
cluded ln the Cliicngo papcr'l table.

The spacious rooms furnished by the Charlottetown Buslne ss Col
ege for Shorthand and Typewriting under the Piincipalship of J. O
Trainor, are models in themselves for the study of theseimportant sub-
ects. While Mr. Trainor is a new teacher to a Charlottetown class
yet, he has already proven what the Phonographic Institute recom-
mended him to be "a competent teacher of Phonography." For
further reroiiiziiendation or introduction ask ANY member of his class.
Here, the htiiii Pitman system is taught from the Pitman-Howard
textbooks, consequently the students,find no didiculty in reading thei
notes.
NOW is a good time to join the classes,
For full particulars and rates apply to the
