MIR. AND MRS. BOwSER.
The Head of the House Says Things
TO Mrs Bowser, But lie Gets the
Worst of 1t as Usual


Worst of 1t as Usual.
Nothing in particular allied Mr. Bowser
the other evening when he started home
from the office, but if the average hus-
band doesn't make n kick ever so often
ne is not on good terms with himself. The
time had come for Mr.. Bowser to kick-and
he lost no time after getting nto the hall
Mrs. BowSer was there TO welcome him,
but he hung up his hat and turned on her
with:
Woman, why don't you gather up all
the sheets and blankets and coats and hats
in the house and hang them on this hall
tree, and make regular Maypole of it?''
There was only one extra hat on the
tree, and that belonged TO Nj BowseT, and
he had hung it there; but Mrs. Bowser was
too polite to dispute him. She led the
way to the dining-room, and he scuffed
along after her, every footstep showing
that he was out Of sorts, and meant to
raise a row. Before sitting down to the
table he looked around, and his eye hap
pened to notice crack in the glass over
one Of the pictures, and he exclaimed:

at the head OF the table with a growl, and
as Mrs. Bowser had planned an extra good
dinner she hoped the worst had passed. It
hadn't even begun, however.
What have you got here-an old
BOOT he demanded, as he started to
carve the chicken and stopped with knife
and fork held aloft.

One morning the colonel rolled out of

dentist there, and it was finally decided
to appeal to one of the cowboys on his

THE SCHUBERT QUARTET.

Last night The Schubert Quar-
tett gave a nice entertainment
here, under the auspices of the
Knights of Pythias, for Sweet
Charity's Sake" and right here we
wish to state, that the house was a
very, very small one, and instead of
the charity fund of the Knights
being swelled to any degree, they
will have to go down into the treas
ury box of the lodge and fish up a
good nice, big, fat sum to pay the
guarantee. There were not over
twenty or thirty people in the audi
ence, although the Knights in the
city number very near two hundred
strong within themselves, and had
they been true and patronized their
own entertainment they could have
furnished an audience within them
selves.
These star course lectures and
quartet companies have never been
popular here, and why our people
play them has long since ceased to
be mystery to us.
The Schubert Quartet last night
had a well arranged programme,
and the lady members, Misses Mabel
Delaney, May Davis, Wini(red Pifer,
LOWE Zenett Purcell, sang well and
performed on mandolin and guitar
in a bewitching manner,
Mr. Louis McPike gave some good
readings and Master Tommy Pur-
cell, the child WONDER astonished
all by his wonderful whistling and
singing, The concert was a good
one and deserved a good audience,

Ryan has Tor some time been making an
