HOW ONE WOMAN PLAYS POKER
A Bit OF an Error That Caused q Party to
Break Up in n Spat.

A BIT OF an Error That Caused q Party to
Break Up in n Spat.
typo OF woman to be dreaded ut the
card table is the tcndcr-hcartcd one,
says the brooklyn Stardard Unlon. Snc
was ct her best the other night when Z
jackpot was to the forc and it had been
opened for twenty-five cents. Every
body was in it and everybody was pre-
pared to bet pretty heavily, when the
tcnder-hcartcd lady said: "Now, chill
drcn, I'r1 not going to let you get cheat
cd; there's no possibility of anybody
Beating my hand, and so there's no use
iii my taking any moro of your money"
Tho natural conclusion was that she
had royal flush. Had she? When that
marvellous hand that was to beat every
body wa3 laid down it was n straight,
jack hight Tho woman opposite her
held four aces, n nan had 4 full hand,
queen high, and another held four trays.
A Eladdcr party than this you never saw
in your life. And the woman who held
four aces gave her friend picco of her
mind. Said she:
"Whcn you don't know how to play n
game don't fool away the time and up
set the tempcr3 of people who do, and
when You arc playing cards don't get
too tendcr-hcartcd. Keep that sort of
feeling for the scclusion of your family
and for your sowing society. don't
care if you do cry; if you don't know
how to play the game you have no bust
ness to make things uncomfortable for
other people, and, if you want to learn,
then you ought to be willing to endure
disappointmcnts until you find out tho
right way. You've broken up the game;
you've made everybody feel miscrable;
feel as if / had been n brute to you,
and yet think you arc q consummntc
IDIOT"
Then they both cried, and the moi,
| said they would go and have u game Of
| billiards. And later in tho evening,
when they came back, they found the
two women us friendly Gs possible, and
/ on her way homo tho one who had
broken up the game said to the men
| who formed her escort:
"Katc is such dear thingI You know
| she has n quick way of speaking, but
| she wouldn't do q mean thing to save
| her soulr'
And one of the men said: "By GeorgcI
that's beautiful for one woman to say
| about another"
And the unluclsy card player m.
swcrcd: "WcI, it's true. She speaks
her mind scmctimcs, but tonight
really think deserved iss'
And every man in the party posi-
lively said: You certainly did"

Various Notes of Interest to All Members
of the Order.
The certificate fees will hereafter be one
dollar, but the per capita tax has been done
away with for all but honorary members.
Engineers or firemen on any railroad
train, conductors or brakemen on railroad
freight trains, or switchmen or yardmen in
the employ of railroads, or persons lgaged
in iron or copper mining, can now be ad
mitted into the K. o. 7. II. by paying in
addition to the regular graded assessment
twenty-five cents on each 81, 900 life benefits
carried.
The order now stretches from ocean to
ocean. There are tents in Washington and
Connecticut. Minnesota is the most north
ern point where Maccabees now flourish,
and Tennessee the most southern.
The tables show that the duration of
membership in the order, of endowment
members deceased since the reorganization
of the supreme tent, has been only one
year, eleven months and fifteen days; their
average age thirty eight years, three months
and seven days, and the average amount
paid by each member into the endowment
fund was S25.S5. The total amount paid in
by deceased members is 6,40S. 49, and their
benefciaries have drawn out $40, T23.
During the two years ending Dec. 81,
1890, $305, 800 was received and paid out by
the supreme tent for death and disability
claims, and S5S O3G. 10 for management ex-
penses.
There is no better field for organizers
than the south.
There have been. since 1888, thirteen total
and permanent disability claims allowed,
and the amount so far paid on such claims
is S., 200.
The annual increase for the biennial term
was within fraction of IS per cent, and
the total average age of the membership is
thirty-three years, eight months and TWEEN
ty days The largest percentage of increase
in states having upward of 500 members
in 1883 has been made by Indiana. The
province of Ontario comes next, Ohio comes
third, New York fourth, with Pennsyl
vauia fifth.

their reading circulation is unlimited. The
reader grabs the directory, turns TO GER
| tain name, closes the book with bang, and
all is over. If the advertiser believes IN
directory advertising | suggest 10 him the
| following test: Let him past five dollar
| bill in any part of a directory among the
| advertisements or among the reading mat
ter to see how long it will take for it to be
brought to light. If it be among the reading
| matter it may be discovered. If it be among
the advertisements it is about as secure as
it would be in the safe. Nothing l have
said should be taken as derogatory to trade
directory advertising, for good trade direct
| cries are really encyclopedias of informa-
| ton; of limited circulation, yet of the right
kind to make trade advertisements pay.
A map or chart or picture may be beauti-
fully executed and the advertisement may
be allowed to occupy the space of the entire
Atlantic ocean. 1t looks well when hung
up. Let the advertiser, before making a
contract, look upon his own Office walls and
see how little OF this sort of trash is there.
He may find some pasted up in the shipping
room, but that locality is not the arena OF
the populace. and about all the people who
will see it consist of his shipper and other
shippers.
Do not make the fatal mistake of consid-
ering that advertising space is not mer-
chandise. 1t is as much so as the carpet on
the floor or the -four in the -four barrel. 1t
is no more luxury than the buttons on the
pantaloons or the lining of the overcoat
The man who considers advertising luxury
and advertiSes should have guardian
placed over his business.
Following is given a dodger circular
somewhat taken from life, much reduced to
save space:
Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1891-05-17

The only value removal circular or ad-
vertisement can have is as a means of in
formation to interested parties, informing
them that changs of business base has been
made. The outside public care absolutely
nothing about it, unless the removal is a
guarantee of better service and better
goods. The word removal seldom at
tracts any attention, and the conventional
removal advertisement or circular is worth
comparatively little. The enterprising
merchant who finds a move necessary
should use it as a legitimate excuse for in
creased advertising, not advertising the re-
moval as speciality in itself, but advertis-
ing the point that increased business de-
mands better quarters, and at the same
time announcing certain leaders and other
information which will assist in bringing
new people to the new store who have
never called at the old one. l would criti-
else the line reading, where he will keep
the best fish in the market" It is as
threadbare as the statement of ''choice gro
ceries and tine teas" Every grocer is sup
posed TO keep choice groceries and fine teas,
or to say that he does if he doesn't There is
absolutely no necessity of asking people
to "give US a call.''
The advertiser should never beg trade;
he should suggest it: he should present be-
fore the public something which the people
want, or something which he can make
them want, not beg them to come into his
store.

J. J. Smith,
100 Main Street.

People do not place implicit confidence in
| advertising statements, but for all that the
permanent character of the paper has the
power to transfer its weight to the goods
advertised in it.
The majority of people are regular read
ers of regular papers. The arrangement OF
the news and advertising columns become
fixed factors in their minds; they depend
upon their fayorite paper, and unconsciously
or not learn to rely upon the advertisements
in it.
The newspaper becomes bureau of in
formation; not only for the news of the
day, but for that which tells what is for
sale and what to buy.
An advertisement in regular paper has
habitation; it is part of the papers life;
it is so recognized by the reader; there is
identity and reliability about it OF fixed
quality.
The circular has no character beyond its
individual appearance. 1t is sort OF
Will-o' the Wisp whose natural fate is the
gutter.
Circulars and hand bills, unless sent out
when asked for. are not considered re-
spectacle method of advertising. Perhaps
that statement is rather strong. Let me
modify it by saying that every man who
circulates circulars may not be a shyster,
but that every shyster circulatcs circulars.
The mail circular, unless sent for, is but
step in advance of the passed-out-fyer.
A bungling, poorly worded advertisement
in good paper may be poor investment,
but it is infinitely better than the most ar
tistically gotten up circular of promiScuouS
circulation.
The newspaper is the natural medium of
advertising, and the only one which is alb
sOlutely necessary to business publicity
Aided by comprehensive catalogues, well
written circulars, first-class goods, and live
statesmen, is worth double its individual
value.
