Saw Him One Better on Economy


A good story was recently told of the
discount clerk in one of the Baltimore
banks. He is man somewhat along in
years, is Quaker, and is possessed of
all the characteristics of that peculiar
religious sect. One day patron of the
bank came in and submitted pile of
notes for discount The clerk looked
them over in his deliberate way and re-
marked, "Isaac, if thee will have to
have the money on these notes, indorse
them"
The patron complied, writing his
name in a bold, free hand Across the
back of the promises to pay. When
nearly through the list the good old
Quaker gently expostulated "Isaac,
thee should be more careful of thy ink;
thee makes dreadful waste in thy sig
nature"
In indorsing the next note Isaac, who
was not without the spirit of wag,
wrote his name so small that the old
Quaker was obliged to adjust his glasses
to see that it was correct. Finally,
handing it back to the customer, he
said, Isaac, thee is very careless
man; thee should always dot thy is and
cross thy t's; the j in thy name, Isaac,
is not dotted"
To this good natured rebuke the pa
tron replied, mot so, old friend; if you
will observe, the in question has fly
speck just above it, and thought that
much ink could be saved. Washing
ton Hatchet.

He had trundled weighty triplets when his
wife was wrapped in slumber;
He had got up every morning and had built
the kitchen fire;
He had pounded on her carpets and had sawed
up cords of lumber,
And had stretched with endless patience
several miles of stiff clothes wire.
He had sworn off on his smoking Just to help
her on her missions,
And had matched whole coils Of ribbons
with no thought of the disgrace;
He had eaten several samples at her cooking
exhibitions,
With a moaning in his stomach and smile
upon his face.
He had borne the shirts she made him, and
his courage ne'er forsook him;
He had stood the socks she darned him,
though the agony was keen;
he had worn her colored neckties, though his
dearest friends all shook him,
Ard the clothes that she selected he dis
played with humble mien.
But when one night she showed him some
pajamas she had made him
And informed him she expected that In them
he would abide,
He quailed before this torture and the thought
of 1t dismayed him,
And he gave one look remorseful and he laid
right down and died.

Why 1t Was That John Fled Away in the
Night.

Why 1t Was That John Fled Away in the
Night.
He was plain John Smith.
She was the beautiful and cultivated
Ethelrida Martingale.
But what mattered that to him; he
loved her.
Love is the great leveler.
Not that it had leveled the sweet, pale
Ethelrida exactly, for it had not; but it
had knocked John out fiat.
Happy Ethelrida, for she had the bulge
on him.
1t is ever thus.
In loves sandwiches one piece of bread
will always have more butter on it than
the other will
Yet Ethelrida was not cruel, and she
did not long to let him drop hard enough
to cripple him for life.
On the contrary, she sought to let him
down on silver strands to beds of thorn
less roses.
But John wouldn't have it.
Nor is our hero the only man built
that way
Heloves but little, or not at all,
That was Iohn Sra;tt III o,,nr ,a

Why is it the tenderest feet must tread the
toughest road?
Why is it the weakest back must carry the
heaviest load?
While the feet that are surest and firmest have
the smoothest path to go,
And the back that is straightest and strongest
has never burden to know.
Why is it the brightest eyes are the ones soon
dim with tears2
Why is 1t the lightest heart must ache and
ache for years?
While the eyes that are hardest and coldest
shed never q bitter tear,
And the heart that is smallest and meanest
has never an ache to fear.
why is 1t those who are saddest have always
the gayest laugh?
Why is II those who need not have always the
biggest half?"
While those who have never a sorrow have
seldom a smile to give,
And those who want just little must strive
and struggle to live.
Why is it the noblest thoughts are the ones
that are never expressed2
Why is it the grandest deeds are the ones that
are never confessed?
While the thoughts that are like all others are
the ones we always tell,
And the deeds worth little praise are the ones
that are published well.
Why is 1t the sweetest smile has for its sister
sigh2
Why is it the strongest love is the love we al
ways pass by2
While the smile that Is cold and Indifferent is
the smile for which we pray,
And the love we kneel to and worship is only
common clay.
Why is 1t the things we can have are the things
we always refuse2
Why is it none of us live the lives If we could
we'd choose?
The things that we all can have are the things
we always hate,
And life seems never complete, no matter how
long we wait.
Elizabeth Stewart Martin.

DREAMS

o spirit Of peace.
Soothe my senses to sleep.
Let my soul in sweet reyerie steal back to the
past,
To the castles of youth In that dear land of
dream.
Where the ghosts Of dead loves are so real
that they seem
Like the gold leaves of autumn preserved from
the blastl
Phantom of fancy,
Dream wings lend my soul
10 float softly away to those deep shadow delis,
And blend with the beauty of memory's
bright stream
That silently sings in that dear land of dream
Like the remembered music of long silent bellsl
D land of the past,
Where the soft echoes linger
And the music of memory with sweet rapture
thrills
The heart like the fragrance of the flowers,
or a kiss
That gladdens life with fond thoughts of
its bliss
Oh, the soul is a song burst-the whole world 1t
fills!
All, mel Dear dreams,
You are naught but shadows
Still wrapped in the silence of Times silver
years;
Like the mirth of the May time you cheer
with your smiles
Your gifts, those bright witch fires of fancy,
beguiles
This old world of fact with its roses and
tears.

A Matter of DUTY.

The casual observer would have de-
tected nothing strange in the personality
of the youngish party who sat alone in
the front parlor. Yet a close scrutiny
would have revealed symptoms of men,
tai strain.
Mental strain was something Aloysius
De Gughmp could i'll afford.
Presently a beautiful little boy fitted
into the room.
The youngish party started eagerly
from his seat. There was look of ag-
onizing doubt in his eyes.
"What did she say?' he demanded.
''She said," lisped the child, .'to tell
Mr.. De Gughmp that she'd be right
down"
The youngish party could not repress
an exclamation of joy.
His face shone with satisfaction.
''And is that all she said?" he asked,
striving to be calm.
The child shook his head.
"What was it, Willie? Tell me her
words. Every syllable is treasure to
me-"
The boy approached and looked trust
ingly into his face.
"She said"-
Aloysius de Gughmp held his breath.
"She'd be polite although it did turn
her stomach"
The youngish party at once resolved to
make his call strictly formal.-Detroit

A Fanatic.

A young knight made his battlecry,
III fight the evil till diel"
And forth he rushed with needless might
To do his battle for the right.
And recklessly he laid about,
And ruthlessly, and felt no doubt,
But blindly struck whate'er he saw
That seemed to him to have a flaw.
At length doubt came to his mind;
He paused and turned and looked behind.
Alasl too late he understood
How deftly mingles Ill with good.
With swimming eyes, with reeling brain,
He saw the good that he had slain.
Himself seemed evil to him now,
And then he thought upon his vow.
And, lol the warrior lay at rest,
With his own dagger in his breastl

Courage, brave heart nor in thy purpose falter;
Go on and win the fight at any cost.
Though sick and weary after heavy conflict,
Rejoice to know the battle is not lost.
The field is open still to those brave spirits
Who nobly struggle till the strife is done,
Through sun and storm, with courage all un-
daunted,
Working and waiting till the battles won.
The fairest pearls are found in deepest waters
The brightest jewels in the darkest mine,
And through the very blackest hour of mid.

The star Of hope doth ever brightly shine.
Press on! Press onl The path is steep and
rugged,
And storm clouds almost hide hopes light

But you can pass where other feet have trod-

By patient toll each difficulty past,
You then may see these days of bitter failure
But spurred you on to greater deeds at last.
