TOO MUCH or a GOOD THING.
4 Hotel Clerks Say About the "shirt
sleeves Brigade

That there are two sides to every ques-
ton is proven occasionally in the most
unexpected manner. That never a thing
could be said against the Shirt Sleeves
Brigade" its adherents and advocates
have heretofore steadfastly believed. but
a recent occurrence seems to indicate
that even a good thing can easily be
carried TOO far.
WHO the blank is that blankety-b blank
idiot who has been writing all this cot about
the Shirt Sleeves Brigade for your pa
per?" queried clerk in one of the we'll
known hotels of Morning News reporter

the newspaper man in his turn, rapidly

men. and anxious, therefore, to conceal

well. !" said the clerk, I'VE used to have
fairly well behaved lot of people about
this hotel. The masculine portion Of our
guests had never heard that they had any
rights and they would sit through their
meals, CARRIED in Ghe customary attire of
civilization. without regard TO the state
of the weather or the hight of the mer-
curry in the thermometer. They never
made any kicks against the womanly
privilege of wearing shirtwaists. without
coats or Jackets, that was denied to
them, and always seemed TO be a rea-
sonably contented and satisfied lot of
mortals."
Here lately, however. since this talk
about the Shirt Sleeves Brigade has been
going the rounds, they have foregathered
and discussed their wrongs. They have
evidently come to the conclusion that it
is a bowling shame that they should be
compelled to wear coats at any time when
they don't want to wear them. and
considerable number of them have drop
ped into the habit of dropping into meals

the paper and not encourage the ordinary

an ass by the grace of nature, to try to

TYBEE'S NEW POSTMASTER.
Mr. James w. Noble Now in Charge
of the Office.

Mr.. james w. Noble Now in Charge
of the Office.
The residents and visitors at Tybee will
continue 10 get their mail on the island.
The government, or rather the gentleman
who runs the fourth assistant postmaster
department at Washington has kindly ac-
cepted of Congressman LISTERS recon-
mendation that the order abolishing the
Tybee postoffice be revoked and that Mr.
James w Noble be appointed postmaster.
Mr.. Noble, as announced in the Morning
News, has receiced his commission last
week and is now in Charge of the office.
The order abolishing the office was Is
sued on the recommendation of Postoffice
Inspector O. Brien, who was dissa usfied
with the manner in which the Office was
being run by the then incumbent As eff
forts had been made TO secure more sat
isfactory incumbent without success In
spector O'Brens recommendation was
adopted. When Congressman Lester filed
a protest with the department in behalf
of the people Of Tybee he was Informed
that If a suitable person could be named
before the time named for the order to
20 into effect that the Office would be con-
tinued. Mr. Mobiles name was at once
sent forward and he was accepted BY the
department. Mr.. Noble Is superintendent
of the Tybee walerworks and doubtless
has plenty of time to attend to the post
office also.

M0THERED AN ORPHAN PUP
Strange FOndness Displayed by an
Old and ChickenIess Hen.

A story is going the rounds illustrative
of the maternal instinct implanted in the
female breast and that sometimes exhib-
its itself strangely and amid queer sur
roundings. This time the heoriue of the
story is benevolenty inclined old hen,
and the object of her attention a callow
and very little puppy.
The puppy was given to a Savanna h
man few days ago. before, in the course
of nature, it should have been separated
from its mother. The man carried it to
his home and stored it away. with as
much thought and care for its comfort a $
1t was possible 10 bestow, in a box In the
back yard.
1t CHANGED that the old hen also made
her residence in the back yard, and that
pesti!ence and the neighborhood cats had
recently served to deprive her of fuzzy
brood of her offspring The maternal in
stinct had been aroused, The natural re-
cipients of it's attentions had been de-
stroyed, and the old hen was in much
trouble and tribula ton of spirit She
needed something, to love as much as the
puppy needed some one 10 love it, and I'M
der these circumstances of mutual need
the two seemed to be ORA wn irresistibly
together.
The hen made tentative approaches at
hrst to the puppy, which, when she SAL
received in good spirit, she followed with
attentions more demonstratiVe and affec-
tionate. Soon the two were the closest and
best of friends
The hen would cuddle the puppy under
her wings and fly into a passion of jeal-
ouSe Rage did anyone seek to disturb eth
er her sharge or herself She watched
over the little object OF her devotion with
the tenderest care, scratching valiantly in
the earth for those articles of food she
thought would suit the palate of the pup
py. When she desired to move to other
hunting grounds she clucked as she would
TO some of her own offspring, and the
puppy would follow at her heels-of hens
have them.
AS yet no rift In the friendship that ex-
lists has appeared. 1t is proba ble>that the
hen and the puppy will continue their
companionship until the latter has reach
ed an age where he can look after him
self, and then it is likely to cease. At
present ii is at once interesting and anus
ing.
