Under other conditious.

A young medical student came face
TO face with a dear, kind, fatherly-
looking gentleman, with white hair
and Of highly respectable appearance
says an exchange.
They both stood transfixed. The same
idea flashed across both of them.
Your face is familiar-very famil-
lar; but l can't remember where we
have met so often"
However, the friendly impulse was
carried out
They shook hands warmly, partook
of friendly glass and departed, still
ignorant of each others name and &C.
cupation.
But the young man was determined
to solve the problem, and he seized on
a waiter and said to him:
Tell me. waiter, who is that dis
tinguished stranger with the long white
hair?"
And the waiter whispered lowly:
Please, sir, that's the pawnbroker."

Famous Jokes.

A joke which proved a spectacle for
hundreds of people, and which made a
sad hole in the joker's banking account,
says London Answers, was the making
of a bonfire of 400 acres of Bourne
mouth cliffs. where the heather and
pine tree grow. not long ago. Three
young men with humorous tendencies
considered it a joke to set the heather
on fire at the driest season of the year.
This produced blaze that turned night
into day, attracting a mighty crowd
Of sightseers, and was seen across the
English Channel from France. This
was the costliest Joke of the kind for
many years, for the testers were caught
and fined $4,000. which was paid for
them by wealthy relations. They mar
rowly escaped Imprisonment, and the
Joke is a matter of history at Bourne
mouth.
Another costly, but less despicable,
joke was the Great Wusser Jest, which
was played by party of young under
graduates at Boston Fair. On a. piece
of waste ground was a large tent, and
a. huge placard outside it invited all
to come. free of charge, and inspect
the Great Wusser, the marvel of the
age. 1t was supposed that some pay
ment or purchase would be required
inside, but it was not The crowd,
eager for free amusement, was formed
into u long queue, and the people-ad-
mitted onlc one at a time-were es-
corted through a maze of hurdles into
darkened compartment of the tent
before curtain. There they were en-
treated not to irritate or disturb the
animal in any way, and the curtain
went up, disclosing a sorry and spav-
ined looking donkey.
This is the Great Wusseri" exclaim-
ed the Snowman. And when the be-
wildered spectator asked what it meant
he was told that though you may
have seen as bad a donkey, you GER
tainly never saw a wusserl'' Then.
when the victim of the hoax became
indignant he was besought to keep it
quiet, and take his revenge by allow
ing the remainder of the crowd to be
hoaxed. This request showed a deep
knowledge of human nature, for the
victim always complied, and many
went among the crowd and spread the
most astonishing account of the Great
Wusser, and waited to see their COM
rades taken in. Eventually, however.
riot arose, and the testers. being ar
rested for creating disturbance had
to pay over f100 in fines and damages

MIR Taylor, a member of the Aus
tralian Parliament, was a visitor to
the President the other day. He ex-
planned to the President. upon request.
something of the Australian labor laws
and their workings. The laws provide
for compulsory arbitration, and under
them he says there is practically no
chance for. a strike. Employers and
labor organizations would forfeit large
sums of money if they refused to sub
nit the settlement of a strike TO arbi-
tration. The law recognizes the Anal
gamated Trade Union, which is re-
sponsible financially in sustaining its
position. Employers are in precisely
the same situation. All labor men in
Australia are amalgamated into one
immense union.

Oftentimes the boys imprudent and is
driven to admit
That, to put 1T very mildly, he has
erred a little bit;
But the grown-up boys that 1 know
aren't infallible themselves,
And some day the boys they're guiding

Then the name upon the pay roll that
will stay there good and long

Ever into life's fierce maelstrom youth
full vigor must be hurled.

the lads cannot forget

Fear not, when you know it's due him

Mid the host OF noble fellows in the
toiling ranks OF men,
Mid the jewels one discovers with the

Every heart that is unselfish and re-

For Gods own brand OF politeness.
