A lawyer friend of mine returned
from the Republican state convention
with one of the Herbert Parker COM
paign buttons pinned to the lapel Of
his coat. He wore it home and it was
there when he went to bed Friday
night. Early yesterday morning he
was awakened by his three-year-o
hopeful entering the room with his pet
doll decorated with the campaign en-
blem and the remark ''see papa, here's
another delegate for Parker" The lit
tie one had heard his pater telling ma
ter all the Parker delegates wore the
buttons.

Il wish your hats were as pretty and

hubby to wife recently. Now wife was
wise woman, so she said nothing but
watched Mrs. J. for a few weeks. She
discovered that the woman whom hub
by admired seldom bought new bon
net but by changing the flower pinned
upon the hat, form a red rose one day
to a yellow pansy the next or to a
cluster of black feathers the next, Mrs.
]. seemingly possessed hats to match
every gown. Now wife has bought a
black hat which she can transform by
changing the trimming.
The new plan may work very well in
hubby's eyes continue as dull as they
are at present but any woman can de-
tect at a glance that wife owns but
one hat.

A friend Of mine was recently given
handsome meerschaum pipe by some of
his society friends as a mark of their
esteem and a reward for what he has
done the organization. He brought it
home with his breast swelling with
pride and showed it to his wife. Now
it was really a handsome pipe and she
could hardly be blamed for saying
nov, you are not going to spoil that
beautiful pipe by putting nasty tobac-
co in it are you?" And he said ooh, no,
dear. Well use it for a soup ladle."
Then he proceeded to fill and enjoy his
first smoke of nice fragrant tobacco.
When a crowd of politicians branches
off the usual discussion, something is
bound to go wrong. During a gather
ing of the faithful at Republican head
quarters last night, the argument took
all sort of turns From a half-hearted
review of the senatorial fight in the
second district the conversation
switched around to fishing and hunting
and the crowd smoked up right lively
for few minutes, but it was all over
when some one wanted to know who
it was that divided the waters of the
Red Sea and walked through dry-shod?
One fellow ventured an opinion that it
was Jonah, still another thought
Daniel might have had a hand in the
matter. The Testament at headquar-
tiers was locked up in the innermost
recesses of the big safe and the man
with the combination had gone home,
or they might be hunting for the Bible
story now.

the giving of special privileges in con-
gress. He is now mayor of Cleveland
on a platform which provides for
three-cent fares and demands com.
pensation for street car franchises.
People have called him inconsistent
for denouncing now the things which
were responsible for the fortune he
has made. But the people of CIeve-
land have not deemed his incon-
sistency of Importance. They saw
that he is no hypocrite and never
was, but is man who can be depend
ed upon to do as he promises.
Johnson's ancestors were amonp
the pioneers of Kentucky. He is the
son of the late Col. Albert w. John
son, who was a wealthy planter in
Arkansas before the war. His father
threw his fortunes on the side of the
south when the war came and sent
his wife and three sons to Millevile
Ga.
Tom was but ten years old, but at
once began to help his mother. He
became newsboy and, as the people
were hungry for news, he made
money. When the war closed and his
father did not have enough money to
take his family back to his planta-
ton In Arkansas, Tom came to his
rescue with his savings of SIS.
The boy left home at the age of IA
as there was nothing on the planta.
ton to attract him. He became an
Office boy in an iron foundry at
Louisville at two dollars a week.
Soon he was getting seven dollars.
Then he got into the street railway
business. At IL he was superintend.
ent of a street railway in Louisville.
Three years later he, with his uncle
and man named Shepherd, bought
the Indianapolis street railway. They
paid $4,000 for it, and they sold il
for more than 100000. Johnson
took his share of the money and
went to Cleveland in search of a new
street car investment.
He bought mule line on the West
side of the city which never made a
cent. He took advantage of a for.
gotten law which permitted him to
use the tracks of another company.
He introduced improvements, organ
lied stock company and became a
millionaire. He went to congress and
became a single taxer. He has al
ways been honest, although his opin-
ions confiicted with his own inter.
ests. The people who know him have
absolute confidence in him, and the
politicians who oppose him are afraid
of him.
