GOOD LUCK FOR THE GIRLS.

When the subject of bulldogs was
reached. the major" took hand. or
rather. he monopolized the conversa-
ton. The major" was Sam E. Little
Of near Newburg, Ind, and he gained
his sobriquet as an Indian fighter and
frontiersman.
You can talk about your fighters
and your fierce beasts, but l had a
couple OF genuine English bulls that
beat them all. Why, when l came to
figure 1t down those dogs cost me a
fortune in incidentals alone. They
were so mean that they wouldn't let
anybody come in the yard. Every time
l wanted a pound Of coffee, I'd have to
go after 1t or hire somebody on the
place to make the trip. Those dogs
wouldn't allow the grocer to come in
the neighborhood. And as for the ba-
ker and butcher, they avoided my
place as IL it was pesthouse.
But that wasn't a circumstance to
what they did to the young fellows
who came to see my girls, or, rather

five girls They were all pretty and at
tractive, but somehow there weren't
any fellows hanging around my place,
l believe that one fellow did come once,
but one of the dogs got him as he went
over the fence on the return trip and
he did the mantel act three times a
day for two weeks. But to see those
girls at party or dance you would
think from the way the fellows took on
that there wasn't another girl in the
state.
Zone day the two dogs got in fight.
Both of them had these kind Of teeth
that project over their jaws, and when
once they got hold it took thunder
to part them. Well they both got a
hold that day, and as the sky was
clear the hired hand took an ak. We
buried them together. And don't you
know that the next night there were
half a dozen buggies hitched in front
OF the gate. And it kept on that way
until about six months ago. when the

preparations for the entertainment OF
the old soldiers, and as they arrive
they will find the latch-string out and
the glad hand of welcome extended.
More than 300 900 visitors are expect
ed to be in the encampment city dur
ing the week, and it is the aim OF the
citizens of Cleveland to make it red
letter event in the history Of the town.
Free quarters have been provided for
from $4,000 to 10000 veterans in school
houses and halls, similar to the plan
adopted by Chicago, and which worked
SO successfully last year.
The Forest City is place Of ar
mories and monuments, and has many
points of historic interest. Foremost
among these is the tomb of the late
President Garfield, whose home was In
Mentor, only twenty-four miles from
Cleveland. The mausoleum Is located
in Lake View cemetery, on a high
piece of ground, and Is the Mecca Of
many visitors to the city. The statue
of Commodore oliver Hazard Perry,
the hero of the battle of Lake Erie in
the war of 1912, was dedicated Sep
TENDER 10, 1860, the anniversary Of
Perry's great victory. Some years ago
1t was removed from the public square,
where 1t had been originally placed.
and taken to beautiful spot in Wade
park, where it now stands.
In the very heart of the business sec
ton OF the city stands one of the
grandest soldiers monuments in the
United States. Within its walls are
relics of wars and the names Of de-
parted heroes chiseled In the marble
surroundings. This monument will no
doubt be one of the greatest attractions
at the encampment and will doubtless
be visited by every veteran in attend
ance.
Located but two blocks from the
public square is the Central armory, a
large and magnificent building, where
campfres by the veterans will be held.
II will also be a principal headquar-
tiers for the Grand Army.

FORGOT HER PART.

From the London Spare Moments: A
well-known countess was announced
to speak at costers' gathering in the
East End recently, so the little daugh-
ter of one of the costers-a flower SELL
er-was deputed to present the count
ess on her arrival with a beautiful bou-
quet.
The evening arrived, with an enthu-
siastic audience in the hall, and pres
emily the countess was announced.
The little girl, who had been coached
as to what to say, walked along the
platform to where her ladyship stood,
and in her confusion convulsed every
one with laughter by shouting out:
ERE yer are, mum. Only a penny a
bunch-market bunch fer penny"
The countess smiled, accepted the
flowers, and the child got the penny.

BEHAVING LIKE ALADY.

A little girl from an East End slum
was invited with others to a charity
West End of London. In the course of
the meal the little maiden startled her
hostess by propounding the query:
Does your husband drink"
why, no." replied the astonished
lady of the house.
After moments pause the minia-
ture querist proceeded with the equally
bewildering questions:
How much coal do you burn? What
is your husbands salary? Has he any
bad habits?"
BY this time the presiding genius OF
the table felt called upon to ask her
humble guest what made her ask such
strange questions.
We'll" was the innocent reply,
mother told me to behave like a lady.
and when ladies call at our house they
always ask mother those questions

This recipe answers equally well for
currants or any kind OF berries, and
is particularly fine for grapes. Rinse
thoroughly and crush the fruit, strain
and mix with half OF the fruits bulk
of crushed ice. Put two tablespoon
fuls Of crushed Ice in each glass, add
two cubes Of sugar and a crushed mint
leaf. Fill the glasses to within an
inch OF the top with the juice, add a
trife OF lemon Juice to accentuate tho
flavor. and crown the top with seven
or eight whole berries or peeled grapes.
When desiring to serve the julip at a
company luncheon, line tall, delicately
thin glasses with mint stalks, having
the leaves come well above the tops OF
the glasses. The effect is very dainty.
