N. A. B., in Harper's Magazine: She
had returned with an NJ. D. from a

ties of her place. I'm addition to your

with apologetic hesitation, "I should
like you to take the junior and senior
classes in elocution, and also assume
charge of the physical culture"

catalogue that those two departments

"And l was elected to the chair ol

YES" the president answered
gloomily.
But he was treasured by her winning
smile. II will take the work and dc
what I can with it, DR.. Smith," she
said, brightly; "but why didn't you
write me at first that the chair was

EXPERIMENT WAS A SUCCESS.

my wife has a new fad" announced
the fat man with the red face, as he
cheerfully stirred the cooling mixture
before him with long straw. "She is
going in for hypnotism now, and it has
my sincere and emphatic Endorsement.
She has taken twelve lessons from a
noted professor of the art, and is now
a full-fedged hypnotist, or thinks she
is, which amounts to the same thing
as far as she is concerned. l was her
first subject, and her success with me
not only pleased her but astonished
her as WELL At first I rebelled at be-
ing experimental with, thinking it all
tommyrot; but 1 am now prepared to
indorse the art to it's full extent. She
got me in chair and then, standing
in front of me, went through lot of
monkeyshines before my face with her
hands.
NOW she said, sternly, you can
not leave your chair
"Just to see what her game was l
gave her the CLASSY eye and made no
move. Her eyes cleaned with tri-
umph, and then she said:
"'Listen to me! You must no longer
drink intoxicating liquor! If you do
1t will make you sick. You will find 1t
is impossible to lift glass of the vile
stuff to your lips. You cannot even
enter place where it is sold!'
"Then she brought me out Of the
trance by swapping her fingers, and an
nounced that her experiment was a
complete success.

MIR. ROOTS LUGGAGE"

From the Philadelphia POST Secre-
tary Root has a gift, not unlike Lin
coins, of infusing humor into the la
borious details of official duties. The
war secretary's Office has been
throughout the administration an ex-
tremely busy one. Now the hurrying
demands of war have been supplanted
by the exacting responsibilities of pre-
pairing military government for the
colonies, not to speak Of the multiply
ing affairs of regular army business.
But Secretary Root, although pos
sessed of unusual capacity for hard and
prolonged work, seems never to be
hurried, and will occasionally pause In
the midst of revolving routine to en-
terrain his associates or visitors with
some pleasant remark.
A few days ago he was superintend-
ing the work of revising the Cuban
tariff. Item after item was drearily
gone over, and to the assembled clerks
it seemed that the secretary was not,
on this occasion, to enliven the pro-
ceedings with his customary wit. Sud-
denly his face lightened up. He had
come across the word luggage" writ
ten into the tariff, evidently by some
Britisher among the clerks.
"Luggager exclaimed the secretary.
"here at last is unmistakable evidence
that our country is drifting into i'm
perialism."

The other day Richard Harding
Davis was asked by vivacious hostess
to tell some story about the Spanish
American war that was funny and not
gloomy, for" said she, there must
have been amusing incidents also"
WELL" said the young author re-
flectively, "of course no great tragedy
is complete without its element OF
comedy. l remember particularly one
little incident in the crudely fixed up
hospital tent in Siboney, which, de-
spite its pathos, was so droll as to
bring smile to even the faces of the
boys on the stretchers. There was one
young fellow who had been laid up
with a bad case of fever. He was a
big, raw-boned, overgrown fellow,
came from 'Cincy,' he said, and as he
tossed about from side to side he kept
telling me that he was restless as a
wildcat, tired of being chained to a
blank cot sick of being coddled like a
baby, the smell of disinfectants made
him iller; he was aching not from fever
but from longing to get out into the
air with the boys and be in the fight.
"'Can't you get the doctor to let me
out, Mr.. Davis?' he begged pathetically.
"Ill do what l cam said, and as
the doctor happened to be passing l
called him over and put the matter be-
fore him.
'Nonsense!' he exclaimed. Just
look at him. Is he fit-now, is he?
Look at that face, will you-red and
blotched with fever. He's in no con-
dition to get out
THE boy had gradually raised him
SET eagerly on to his elbow, but as the
doctor finished speaking his head fell
back hopelessly.

ly; 4 paint, doctor! It's just paint,

ALL WANTED Jim FIsKs."

A certain we'll known politician dur
ing the state convention met a lot OF
his old-time friends from southern
Maryland at Ford's Opera House, and
after the convention was over so glad
was he to see them that he took the
whole crowd around to nearby res
taurant, lined them all up against the
bar and requested them to nominate
their drink"
Everybody took whisky except the
city man, who had the bartender manu-
facture him a gin fizz. When the drink
had been placed before him one old
fellow asked:
"Say, what's. that you're drinking?"
"That," said the city man, lis gin
fizz"
"Say, bartender" said the county
politician, take back your whisky and
give me "Jim Fisk. too"
rhe rest Of the crowd liked the
name, and in few minutes every man
had repudiated whisky and was drink

Easy Come, Easy Go.

The man who creeps along bent
over, with his spinal column feeling In
q condition to snap like pipestem at
any minute, would readily give great
deal to get out of his dilemma, and yet
this is only the commonest form by
which lumbago seizes on and twists
out Of shape the muscles Of the back.
This is commonly known as backache'
q crick in the back, but by whatever
name It may be known, and however
bad it may be. 10 minutes vigorous
rubbing with st. Jacobs Oil on the at
flicted part will drive out the trouble
and completely restore. 1t is thing
30 easily caught, 1t may be wondered
at why there is not more OF 1t, but
because 1t is so easily cured by st. ia
cobs Oil may be the very reason that
we hear so little of it.

SYMPATHY FOR THE HORSE.

The wife of clergyman, who has
assumed for several months as mat
ter of accommodation to the parishion-
ers the care of the church at the fash
ionable country place in which he has
his summer home, occasionally tries to
interest himself in the affairs of the
few country people who, with the New
York millionaires, make up the con-
gregation; so she stops at the houses
of those she knows when she is driv-
ing. The other day she halted at the
house of an old woman who devoted
herself to the customary account OF
her troubles. The minister's wife was
duly sympathetic. AS matter of fact
sac had long been an active sympa-
thizer in the s. P. c. A., and her char
ity went more in that direction than in
any other.

The expression on the visitors face

ployed," she said, land l will do what
can to stop such dreadful thing. 1t
is intolerable cruelty to drive any
horse that long at stretch. I'll see

1t seemed to the old woman that
there was something wrong about the
visitors expression of regret over her
son, but it sounded friendly, at all
events, and she did not analyze it toe
deeply.-New York Sun.
