TakeIt COOlly.

A good story has been told of q lisp
ing officer having been victimlzed by
brother oficer-wbo was noted for his
cool, deliberate, and strong nerve ) and
of his getting square with him in the
same manner: The cool joker, Captain
Blsckney, was always qulzzing the lisp
ING officer, lieutenant, for his nervous,
ness. and said one day at mess, why,

look at his brother officers, why take it

psrty broke up, and all retired Next
morning a number of soldiers were as
sembled on parade, when along came the
r,pipy lieutenant. Lszlly opening his
ewes he remarked 10 a cluster of officers;
Il want to try an exthperlment thith

this he walked deliberately into the cap

on the hearth, and placed IN its hottest

The Boys Wish.

Detroit Free Press.
The other night, about 10 o'clock, q
policeman passing along Lsrned street
east, came upon boy who was walking
I'D and down IN front OF house, and when
the lad was asked if he lived there, and
why he did not go in, he replied:
dads waiting for me withs whip
Going to dust your jacket is her,
That's the programme" sighed the
boy, "unless l can think up somsthing u

Now cometh the time when the care
full housewife casts her eye oyer the
premises, and calculates the amount of
work her husband will be able to do be-
tween meals.
"John."
1t is low and sweet, bit previous ex-
psriences teach him that there is Won
derful strain of diplomacy underlying

He lays his paper aside, affects an in
difference he does not feel, and waits
for the next move.
1t Is worthy of Nspoleoh's best genius
when II is made,
"Smith has been cleaning out his back
yard all the morning."
HAS he2 Let him clean"
"Yes, but you can't imagine how much
better it looks"
"Does it?'
"Come out and look for yourself 1t
won't take minute"
So John is wheedled into the spring
sunshine, and sees the faithful Smith
tossing empty oyster cans into the back
alleys and laying assorted detunct
telines up IN cords, ready for the noble
being who lie known to local fame as the
"dead. amin al man."
The srttul mistress Of the house casts
significant look into the chaos around
her own back steps, and before he
knows it John has his coat of and is
handling q garden rake with more vigor
than science.
He wheels the ashes into the street
ostensibly to "fill the ruts," but, in reali-
ty, to get rid of them; ha losses ole pans

able.
The next day the neighbors hens
scatter his bed and devour his seeds but
1t does not take away the peace o. the
thought that he at least tried TO do b 8
duty as An American citizen and h lover
OF the beautiful.
At last he finishes and rctires from
his labor in state Of complacenty, to
receive from his better half the encour-
aging salutation. "Yes, that does very
we'll, but then Smith has sodded thslr
