T’was Mike’s hee-hawing asa! What was it next came on the scene, Made the hammer, spade, jack a sham. With a sound that cut the air so keen? ’Twas Mike's Angora Nan! Why then tind fault with the feeble call Of our mild-toned early booster? He’s still by far the most muscial of all —Mike’s Chinese Rooster! MAT. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. F.

By its use it is frequently possible to reduce the number of characters in the cast. \In moving picture scenes the tele phone is utmxea probably a great deal more than it is on the stage for introduc ing characters that ooold not be introduc ed in any other way,\ says the New York Telephone Review. \A story is told of Inrw the telephone assisted in saving much time and incon venience in the production of a certain film. The scene was set for the period of Louis IV.,, and the performers were ready to take their proper places before the camera when the director’s eye chanced to observe a pair of twentieth century slippers upon the feet of the principal actor.
