Politics and business.
From the Wall Street News.


Some men don't seem to understand the diff
ference between political assertions and business
1acts. Three or four days before election a
Baltimore lawyer made political speech in a
country village. Being red-hot republican he
naturally gave the democratic party the best he
had, and among other things asserted that IN
case of democratic success the country would
have to pay the confederate bonds Two or
three days after election man walked into the
lawyers office, opened valise and took from it
S9so,ooO OF Reb bonds and said: what are they
worth?" -Four cents a pound" ..But the
democratic party has triumphed." "What of
that But won't the country have to paw
these bonds?" Not by a joyful" The bond
holder looked steadfastly at the LAWYER for a
long minute and then slowly said: siWell. by
gum! After ninety-six of us republicans who
listened to your speech went and voted the
democratic ticket in order to realize on our
bonds, you now tell ME that you didn't mean
what you said"

ist. One morning the pair started out for
long ramble over in the Contra Costa hills Be-
ing gone all day, they returned in the evening
completely worn out and fatigued. The young
lady and gentleman were met by a party of their
friends soon after their return, and were asked
as to what kind of time they had Now. the
young lady has very unhandy habit of proving
any assertion she may make byappealing to any
friend that she happens to have with her at the
time So. as usual away she went. and
answered the inquiry as follows: "Oh. we had
a fine time. But climbing over rocks and bushes
has made me black and blue all over. hasn't

ROsaIind's Little Game.

From the Chicago Tribune.
"Pass the cake
These words, spoken in imperious tones by
ROsand Mcclure. fOated diagonally across
the parlor to where Pansy Perkins was seated
on fauteuil conversng with George W. Simp-
son. Pansy was looking even lovelier than
usual, the gas-ght sOttened and made less
garish by the tinted shades through which it
came, bringing out. in all its beauty, the peachy
complexion for which the Perkinses of Perkins
ville had long been noted.
'Were you ever in Marietta. OhiO?" she asked
bending her face as she spoke so close to that of
George that little vagrant tress of her sunny
hair swept across his forehead, making him feel
as if lie had suddenly taken hold of the handles
Of an electrical machine.
NO he replied II never was in Marietta,
but have an aunt who used to live in Cleve-
land"
''HOw strange!" said Pansy. ''My father once
knew man who had been in Cleveland"
And so they chatted on, unmindful of the
fact that just across the room there sat woman
beautiful, but with cold feet whose eyes were
never taken from them, and in whose heart the
fires of jealousy were raging in all their lurid
ferceness. ROsalind Mcclure loved George W.
Simpson with all the passionate fervOr of high
born woman, whose heart attacked In vain by
countless suitors. suddenly pours out unbidden
Il
is terrible in its intensity and only those who
have seen three-base hit made in the ninth in
ming can realize the agony to which woman,
loving thus, is subjected when she sees the OBJ
lect of her passion bending tenderly over another
and whispering words that can never be recalled
The sight of George W. Simpson making love to
girl who didn't have an invisible net to her
name was more than ROsalind could bear and
she went into the supper-room
'put some oysters near that hole i'm the
wall" she said to a waiter, pointing with her
JeWeled hand to the pOrtiere through which
she had just passed. The man did as he was
told.
In moment George and Pansy entered the
room.
Would you like some oysters?" he said
Ion. yes" said Pansy. Il think they are lust
lovely"
George placed before her platter of Sevres
ware on which the mOllusks were heaped and
as the first one disappeared with a dull thud,
ROsallnd smiled cold, Boston smile, and felt
that her hour of triumph was at hand.
when the oysters were gone Pansy looked I'D
with glad smile.
You are very kind. Mr.. Simpson," she said.

But the happy look had faded from the mans
face, and his RANT mouth was Quiyering with
pain. MY heart was broken" he said softly to
himself as he reached for a biscuit, ''but it is
better so than after had told my love- If she
