"A Little Man Who Allowed the News
boys to Bother Him.
This is about Louisville man whom
little things bother until he is not
sure OF his name, age or politics. If
the fret and worry over trifles were
taken out of his life, he would be very
happy, for a real misfortune does not
disturb him at all. One of the small
things which throws completely out
of joint his peace of mind, is the way
newsboys nag after him. He has the
papers left at his home, but state
ments to this effect to the newsboys
have been treated with deris;on. The
other day in order not to be yelled at
any more, he waited until great
number of newsboys had gathered on
the Green street side of the journal
building. Then he walked solemnly
over to where they were standing and
said:
Young gentlemen, will you please
be SO kind as to examine my features
very closely. No, l am not pretty,
but ] am very earnest In this request
Don't ever try to sell me q paper
never buy q newspaper on the streets.
Now, will you please be 80 kind as to
remember this, for l might do some
thing violent Good day, young gentle
men," As the man walked away one
Of the newsboys said:
Hes got rooms to rent in his upper
story"
Now" said the hero of this in
cident TO friend yesterday, what in
the world could that boy have meant
by that? lam not real estate owner

Conflicting Emotions.

She looked upon the pale, slender
youth kneeling before her and was

sympathy in her bearing as she told
him she could never be his wife. He
heard her answer with a bowed head.

had spoken, PROFOUND to you one

Poor Joke Played by Pitts5urg Man
and its sequel.

ana fts sequel
Some people have poor apprecia-
ton of humcr. This must be an aw-
full load TO carry through life. On a
crisp, cold day Bohemiau and his
friend stood in front .of a Pittsburg
hotel holding down the sidewalk
while they thought about what they
should do next. One of the two was
smoking The other held an un-
lighted cigar between his teeth A
cable car came along, then horse
car with front platform crowded with
smokers. The sight of il revived in
the mind of the Bohemian faint
shadow of an ancient joke. He smiled
and suddenly beckoned erergetically
to a man on the front platform. As
soon as the man saw that he was the
one wanted he jumped off and came
back to where the Bohemian was
standing.
"Give me light, please said the
latter gravely. Thanks.
"Why, confound your impudence,
you didn't call me off that car to have
me give you light?"
Now, don't get red-headed about
it., replied the joker calmly; there's
cable car right behind"
But the jolSee was one of those
curious fellows who have no apprecia-
ton of humor. He hauled off with
his right and big oath and down fell
the joker-either hit by the oath OF
the fist, he did not know which.
Nov, don't get red hot about it,
said the other fellow. "You can catch
an ambulance around the corner"
And he broke for the cars again.
That joke looked very funny whe n
! read it in the newspapers" said the
bohemian, as his friend busted him
off, but the thing doesn't seem tc
work right, does it?'

Those little patent affairs which

to create great deal of excitement
along crowded city thoroughfares.
One day last week, for instance,
there was a group of male pedestrians

necks about fakir on Chicago

A fresh-faced, pretty girl in big
hat and stylish wrap sailed jauntily
down the street, the embodiment of
brave and independent womanhood.
This dauntlcss young woman ell
bowed her way ahead through the
crowd and glanced casually at the
fakir with little supercilious smile,
which included the group OF curious

Suddenly the group was agitated
and swayed in from the curb, and a
small dark object scurried across the
pavement.

DANGER JUST AHEAD.

A Prominent Professor Speaks About
the Threatening Things Abroad at
This Time of the Year
at is surprising how many people are suit
fering to-day from so-called coughs colds and
influenza"
The remark was made by very prominent
Professor, connected with one OF the leading
/ New York hospitals. Continuing, he said:
1T is not these things that are troubling
people, but it is an advanced form of our old
enemy, the grip. People feel out OF sorts,
sneeZe, have pains in the muscles ana bones,
have no appetite lose all interest in the world
and wonder what is the matter. III IS the
grip nothing else.
''Now all such symptoms need to have
prompt treatment. The attack must be met
and repelled at once, or 1t is certain TO run
into something serious. | know OF but one
way TO certainly avoid these troubles which
are now so common, ana that is, to immedl-
ateiy counteract them by using good, pure,
strong Stimulant. Nothing OF the ordinary
kind, but something pure and scientific. FOr
Pure Malt Whisky, which is acknowledged
today by physicians and scientific people 10
be the only pure medicinal malt whisky upon
the market
The words of the Professor are true and they
carry wonderful meaning to many men and
women who are suffering with the first Symp-
toms of grip, or else grip ia its advanced
stages. For all such people we offer WORD OF
advice which is to take the best means 10
overcome these troubles and do not permit
any dealer to swerve you from your purpose
to have that which has proven itself by years
of use TO be the best and purest stimulant IN
the world.

THE GARDENERS BURIAL.

This is the grave prepared; set down the bier;
Mother, a faithful son We bring thee here
In loving ease to lie beneath thy breast,
w Which many year with loving toll he drest
His was the eldest craft, The simple skill
That Adam piled, ere good was known by ILL.,
The Uhrosties song at dawn mis- spirit tuned;
He set his seeds in hope, he grated, pruned,
W We6ded and NOW q, and with Il true son S care
Wrought thee mantle of embroidery rare.
The snOWdrOp and the winter aconite
Came at his call ere frOStS had ceased to bite;
He pade the crocus flame as with "a charm;
The nesting violetS blOolnd, and fear'd no
harm,
Knowing that for their sakes champion
meek
Did bIoodless battle with the weather bleak;
But when the Weather months with largess
came
His blazon'd beds put heraldry TO shame.
And on the summer air such perfume cast
AS Saba or the Spice Isles ne'er surpast.
The birds all lov'd him, for he would not
shoot
Even the winged thieves that stole his fruit;
And he 1ovd them-the little fearless wren,
The red-breast, curious in the ways of men,
The pilgrim swallow and the dearer guest
That sets beneath our caves her piaster'd nest;
The merry white-throat bursting with his
song,
FIutterd within his reach and fear'd no
wrong,
And the mute fiy-catcher forgot her dread,
And took her prey beside his STOPPING head.
Receive them, Mother Earth; his work is
done;
Blameless he lived, and did of1ense TO none;
Blameless he died, torbidding us to throw
Flowers in his grave, because he loV'd them so
He would not have them stifie underground,
But bloom among the grasses on his mound.
We, that have loved, must leave him; Mother
keep
A faithful watch about him in his sleep.

chapters upon the warfare of science. In
his remarks about the change from the
creational to the revolutionary view of
the visible universe he asserts that the
accounts in Genesis represent the Creator
as working literally with his own hands.
Such is not the fact. If Mr.. White were
acquainted with the Hebrew word mean
ing to create, he would know that it
means the bringing of something into be-
ing from out of nothing. 1t is, literally,
making world-stutf. Throughout the
whole narrative there is not sign OF
handwork. The whole drift and tenor of
the account reveal lofty intellectual and
spiritual conception OF God as creating by
outflow OF his will. With God, to will
and TO do are one. His volition was
therefore the act OF creation. He SAID,
Light be!' and light was. Even when
the making of man is in hand the Ian
guage describing it does not IMPLY that
this was the work of Gods fingers. SO 1t
is not until we reach the wisdom Etera-
ture Of the Hebrews, and find their ethics
and theology crystallizing in such books
as Job or Proverbs, that we come upon
the idea of the Creator being magnifl-
cent manual laborer. Even here the the
illogical thought is purposely used more
as an illustration or metaphor in expla-
nation of a Hebrew thinkers philosophy
of the universe than as being itself the
scientific statement of the divine method"
