How He ommenced.

Old John Robinson, the great cncus man,
once remarked TO q gentleman In Athens,
Georgia, that he owed his success In life as
n circus man TO his experience in Georgia.
He said that he was billed TO show in Gaines
willie the same day Of big political speak
Ing. He knew that 1t would be foolish to
open his show while the speaking was going
on, as some Of the best political speakers in
Georgia would be there, and would attract
the crowd more than his show. he then
went to the speakers and invited them to
speak under bis canvas, as he had plenty of
seats and would fix up stand for the ora
tors, and the only thing be would ask In re-
turn was that the last man who spoke should
ask The crowd to stay and patroRize the cir.
Gus, as Mr.. Robinson had been very kind In
letting them have his canvas. He says that
several of the speakers took $50 worth of
tickets apiece, and the crowd 10 . man stay
ed To The show. He came next to Jefferson,
and the news had already reached there OF
what be had done In Gainesville, aud he
coined the money. When be reached Athens
il was the same way. Nearly the whole
town turned out to see him. Mr.. Robinson
said 1t Was ihe best advertising dodge he
ever made, and from that tins on he has
continued to make money In the circus bust
ness, and is now one Of the richest men IN
Cincinnati.

Bismarck's Unconquerable Foe.

Bismarck has one foe to whom he has tc
give way. 1t is chronic catarrh. This enc.
my has at last compelled the "Iron Chan.
cellsr" to surrender his beloved cigar and
glass of wine. His royal master, Kaiser
William, holds out better. He still enjoy.
his wine and tobacco. 1t is remarkable
that, although he has long been famous as
one of the most vigorous men of his time
William /. was an exceedingly feeble child
1t was not, indeed, until he gave himself up
to military exercises that he became robust
The Kaiser has always been very moderate
man, and to this day his dinner rarely con-
sists OF more than five dishes, from which he
makes choice. Although the cellars of the
imperial palace at Berlin are full Of the
finest wines of all countries, including the
Rhine vintage Of the famous years 1920 and
1850, "of which the bouqust alone Is a
poem," the Emperor rarely touches them,
and usually contents himself with glass or
two Of somewhat ordinary Moselle.

SOMEBODY'S MOTHER.

The woman was old, and ragged and gray,
And bent with the chill of n winters day;
The streets were white with a recent snow,
And the woman's feet with age were slow.
At the crowded crossing she waited long,
Jostled aside by the careless throng
OF human beings who passed her by,
Unheeding the glance of her anxious eye.
Down the street with laughter and shout,
Glad in the freedom of "school let out"
Come happy boys, like flock of sheep,
Hailing the snow piled white and deep.
Past the woman so old and gray,
fastened the children on their way.
None offered helping hand to her,
So weak and timid afraid to stir,
Lest the carriage wheels or the horses feet
Should trample her down in the slippery
street.
AT last came out of the merry troop
The gayest boy of all the group;
He paused beside her and whispered low:
"I'll help you across if you wish to GO"
I1eI dseu MANU- on HIS sbfouB yOuhs hiin
She placed, and so, without hurt or harm,
He guided the trembling feet along,
Proud that his own were young and strong
Then back again to kis friends he went,
His young heart happy and well content.
"Shes somebody's mother, boys, you know,
For all she's aged, and poor and slow;
And some one, sometime, may lend hand
TO help my mother, you understand?
If ever she's poor, and old and gray,
And her own dear boy so far away"
"Somebody's mother" bowed low her head
At her home that night, and the prayer she
said
Was God be kind to that noble boy,
Who is somebody's son and pride and joy"
Faint was the voice, and worn and weak,
But Heaven lists when its chosen speak
Angels caught the faltering word,
And somebody's mothers" prayer was
heard.
