SHORT STORIES
 OF THE DAY
Enjoys Period of Laziness.

Senator John w. Daniel, the Senator lawyer from Lynchburg, Va, Is known to America as one of the most brilliant ora tors in the United States Senate, and he is known both in Washington and the Southern men, relates the Saturday Even ing Post. To see him, to hear him talk, to remember the amount of work he has done in his day, is to believe him man without lazy bone in his body"
 Although not quite 1s years of age, he entered the Confederate army in May, 1861, as a Second lieutenant in what be- came known as the ''Stonewall Brigade. ' He became major and chief of staff to Gen. Jubal A. Early, and fought steadily throughout the war until forced to re- tire from wounds received at one of the battles of the Wilderness in 1884.
 Afterward he began the study of law and practiced with his father, the late Judge Daniel, until the death of the lat ter in 1873. Senator Daniel has not only been busy as a lawyer in practice, but is the author of two books which are stan dard legal authorities, and has been given the degree of IL. D. by Washington and Lee University and by Michigan Uni versity.
 After serving for some years, first as a member of the Virginia House of Dele gates, and then as member of the State Senate, he was lected to the National House of Representatives. He has been a delegate to several National Dmocratic conventions, has run for Governor of Virginia, and is now serving his third term as United States Senator. For the last two terms he was elected without a single vote in opposition.
 None of the traditional indolence of the South therefore, would be associated with Senator Daniel. Yet when he was asked recently what would now give him the most pleasure he said
 The very thing which I intend to do and which I always do at the end of every term-go back to Lychburg and get myself a nice. clean, comfortable soap box and tilt 1t up against the front door of grocery shop know; then sit out there and bask in the sun like an alligator while I whittled stick with a sharp penknife.
 If you want to know what an absolute delight life Is, come down to Virginia and sit on that soap box with me-

 ''It is simply part of my exercise D explained Ledlow. The doctor prescribed it, and I read half an hour every evening; then I go to work
 What Is the book?' asked Bidwell.

 "Oh, it's all about couple of men. a doctor and business man. who fitted up a ship and went to an island to dig up a lot of gold. They got 1t. too; made big return upon the investment"
 How much did they declare?" asked Bidwell.
 Several hundred thousand. I should judge," answered the banker
 Pooh! a mare trifie,' observed Bidwell.
 ''The original investment wasn't large." explained the banker, apologetically.

ON THE VERGE OF SUCCESS
The Easy Steward and the Auda-
ciOus "Grafter."

A man walked into one of the up
town college clubs one morning and sat
down in the smoking room. His air Of
assurance was hardly in accord with
his tattered clothes. 1t was early, and
none of the members was about. He
rang the bell. and the steward re-
sponded.
ut seems good to get back into the
club again." he remarked.
Eyes, SIR" said the steward.
81 used to be member here, but I've
had hard luck an6 can't afford it any
longer"
Eyes, sir; I'm sorry, sir" said the
steward
"By the way, I'm little short of car
fare this morning" said the nervy
stranger. Gould you let me have ten
cents until call here again?"
The surprised steward reached into
his pocket and handed out dime.
THANK you" said the man. NOW,
I'm also a little hungry, having had no
breakfast. Do you suppose you could
gather me up little lunchcon?'
The steward was stupefied by such
display OF nerve.
"And little whisky with dash of
bitters would not go badly with the
food"
The steward fed as one of the men,
bers entered. The stranger saw the
new arrival and rose hastily.
Il am too early for my friend" he
said as he walked toward the door.
81 will return later" Then he added
m an undertone. which the doorboy
heard: "Too bad. too bad! That stew
ard was easy. He'd given me the club
If I'd asked for it. It's wonder those
members wouldn't Etay away" The
man of nerve walked down the street
with his head bowed in deep thought.
How to get that luncheon without
paying for it" was his theme.-New

What is a Sleeper

Here is definition which is as diff
cult to read rapidly as peter Piper
picked peck of picked peppers, p"
and yet it is more sensible. In fact,
it is an actual statement of facts, as
you will find if you read it slowly.
A sleeper is one who sleeps. A
sleeper is that in which a sleeper
sleeps. A sleeper is that on which
the sleeper runs while the sleeper
sleeps. Therefore, while the sleeper
sleeps in the sleeper, the sleeper car
ries the sleeper over the sleeper under
the sleeper until the sleeper which
carries the sleeper jumps the sleeper
and wakes the sleeper in the sleeper
by striking the sleeper under the
sleeper on the sleeper, and there is no
longer any sleeper sleeping in the
sleeper.

physicians in regard to the preserva-

season of the year. Pneumonia is a
very present danger in this climate

ing these days, so pleasant in SEEM
ing, but so traitorous in their chang
es. There is no doubt whatever that
we are clothed too warmly for indoors,
We wear fully as heavy garments,
probably more of them. than did our
ancestors, who never thought of a
temperature above sixty indoors, in
this latitude in the winter. How
many houses, offices, stores, churches
and public places have temperature
below seventy, now that fires have
been started and the steam turned
on? What house is there. provided
with mooern appliances for heating,
in which at the present time, it is not
necessary to open windows and thus
provide draughts for the discontinue
of the body and especially of suscept-
ible lungs? A few precautions, pos
sible in almost everv instance. may
save you from sickness, possibly from
death.

He is from England, and not long
from there. He was visiting his friend
in Hyde park. and Of course he was
boasting.
"oh. yes. my boy, the United States

said, kindly, "You r great In some re-
spects, but look at us. We have our
navy, that beats the world: our army,
never licked; our great steamship
lines, our bank. Lombard street, the
financial center of the world, our loyal
colonies and all the rest. What car
equal them?"
And we have age, too. Look at our
abbeys. and our ancient towns, and
our papers OF state. Why, man, in
what can you boast Of beating us?"
His Hyde Park friend studied a mo-
ment. Then he replied:
Down in Texas there is an old chap
who was talked to just this way once
by a man from your country who went
there for his health. And after all the
E~nglishman's boasting was done the
man of HI cattle country winked at
me, rolled his tobacco over in his
mouth and spit fourteen feet into the
eye Of a pig standing that far away.
"'Kin any bloody Englishman on

Can he?"
The Englishman suggested brandy
and soda in disgust.
