The betting mania is increasing in
violence; it is wrong to bet; it is bad
to risk money-and lose it; but, some
how, when fellow human is strutting
high and making political prophecies
and telling you all about it, and that
you are dead wrong, it is a kind OF
satisfaction now and then to the aver
age man to tell the blusterer that you
have six bits, or maybe a dollar, that
says he is mistaken.

EIGHTY cooks employed at the i'm
perial palace, Constantinople, recently
struck because the wages due them
were not forthcoming, whereupon the
whole crew was sent into exile for
revolt. Now here is where a mon
archial form of government comes in.
In this ''land of the free and the home
of the brave" a summer resort cook,
single-handed and alone, will strike
about dinner time, and the proprietor,
SO far from attempting to exile him,
falls PROSTATE before the mighty
chef, pleads and entreats him to ac-
cept an increase of wages if he will
only stay, and perhaps closes the
scene by he himself going into the
kitchen and standing guard over the
sizzling steak. If any man has a
right to feel that he is a free man in
this country, that man is a hotel or
restaurant cook, but over there-well,
they just keep back wages dne and
then Danish the poor cook in exile,
probably to Siberia or elsewhere.
American cooks cannot imagine how
much they owe to the founders of this
republic. This is country wherein
the world stands in awe of the cook,
and In which the carving knife is
mightier than the sword.

A TRUE HUMORLST.

EVERY one has read a little of r. |
]. Burdette's humor in the newspa-
pers. 1t is true, genuine "humor,"
no cheap wit, or singing sarcasm, or
pointless punning, but that kind of
hearty humor which brings tears to
the eyes as well as laughter to the
mind: Just now there is paragraph
going the rounds of the press to the
effect that he has turned preacher"
Why, bless you brethren! he has been
preaching for the last fifteen years;
preaching the gospel Of patience,
sobriety, good intention, fulfllment of
duty, good-natured fun, and his ser
mons have had most extensive circu-
lation.
Should Bob Burdette go into the
pulpit tomorrow and "preach," doubt
less he would deliver good sermons
chuck full Of the religion of every day
life, but we doubt if he would do as
much good as he has done as ''hu-
morist" with his hearty, CHEEKY talk
on paper, that has braced up many a
poor devil and made him feel at least
temporarily better.
Here is little extract clipped from
one of his articles in the current num-
ber of an eastern paper:
Chow much does the fretful, restless,
hurrying old world owe to the patient
man who finds his strength in quietness
and confidence; who can be patient with
our faults, our fancies, our wickedness;
who can be quiet when the softest word
would have sting; who can wait
for storms to blow over and fol
wrongs to right themselves; who
can patiently and silently endure slight
until he has forgotten it; and who can
even be patient with himself. That's
the fellow, my boy, who tries my pa.
thence and strength more than any mar
else with whom have to deal. could
get along with the rest of the world well
enough if he were only out of it. / can
meet all my other cares and enemies
bravely and cheerfully enough. But
when myself comes to me, with his heart
aches and blunders and stumbling, with
his own follies and troubles and sins,
somehow he takes all the tuck out OF
me. My strength is weakness and MY
patience is folly when l come to dea
with him. He tires me. He is such /;
fool. He makes the same stupid blum
ders in the same stupid way so many
times. Sometimes when think l mus
put up with him and his ways all my life
l want to give up. And then the mex
time he comes to me with his cares anG
the same old troubles, he seems so help
less and penitent that 1 feel sorry fo
him and try to be patient with, anl
promise to help him all can once more
All, my dear boy, as you grow older tina
is the fellow that will try and tormen
you, and draw on your sympathy, anC
tax your patience and strength. Be pa
tient with him, poor old fellow, becaus,
think he does love you, and yet, as ,
rlle, You are harder on him than on AM
one else"
Now, to our way of thinking there
is about as much sense, pathos, philos
ophy, preaching" and keen insight
into human nature in the above ex-
cerpt, as is usually found in so many
lines, and few can read the extract
quoted without agreeing with its gen
ial author, as to our need of charity
and patience for our own dear selves

FORT WORTH. TEX. FeD. 10. lsss.
Retailers have been busy to-day.
Job5ers in some lines have had SO
many orders to attend to that they have
been pretty hard pushed.
Large quantities Of eggs are coming in
now, but from where, it would be hard 20
tell. They are not worth more than 20
cents per dozen.
The American Banker has the following
TO say Of the DIngley bill to authorize the
Secretary Of the Treasury to invest the
money deposited by national banks for
the retirement OF their circulation, in
United States bonds at current rates, and
to hold. such bonds e trust fund for the
redemption of such circulation, which
has been reported favorably by the bapk-
ing committee CT the House: Il will not
tnlsrge the total volume OF the circuls-
ton, since the treasury puts this redemp-
ton fund into its general balance, and
does not treat 1t IS hoard. But
1t Will make an interest bearing
fund cut Of a Notwithstanding de-
pjsit, and this is worth doing. The
money deposited By the banks in this way
belongs absolutely to the government,
and is an Offset and quid pro QUO for the
governments legal liability to redeem the
outstanding bank notes when presented.
The banks which deposited the money
have no interest in the fund either near
or remote, all their liabilities have been
cancelled when they made the deposit.
The people in whose pockets the retired
bsnk notes are still held are the benefl-
Charles and creditors Of the fund, but they
do not depend upon it, since the law
makes the treasury absolutely responsible
for the redemption thereof.
