Brainy Tramp.

When Wilkinson went to his office
one day last week he felt calm and
contented. He hadn't any need to
worry about his wife's loneliness any
more, for he had bought capital
watchdog for her.
But, alas! when he arrived home
his wife met him with the deplorable
news that the dog had gone. a
'Eh!" said Wilkinson, did he break
the chain, then?"
"No.' she replied; "but a great.
ugly-'noking tramp came here and
acted SO impudently that l let the dog
loose But instead Of tearing the tramp
to pieces the nasty dog went off with
him"
Great Scott" said Wilkinson, that
must have been the tramp I bought
him from! /"

this morning on two big trucks. Al

to spoil the face of each plate with a

Treasury Department rode on each
truck. A Treasury committee rode in

The procession went to the Navy

unceremoniously dumped into one Of

and to be used for ballast for war
ships. There were twenty tons Of

for many years Americas foremost

this portrait has been rehung to suit
some modern Interpretation Of the

by George Washington. In doing this
the paint has been scratched and
scraped and in some important spaces
has been knocked off entirely. Worse
than this, hole about three inches

A Chinese Innovation.

Some foreign clothing has been tax
en- into the palace at Pekin for the
emperor and empress dowager to try
on, so that they may come to some
decision regarding its introduction in
official circles. Should the emperor
and empress dowager sanction the
wearing of foreign costumes by the
court an unprecedented departure viii
have been taken. In no way is the
conservatism of the Chinese shown
more strongly than by their adherence
to their national dress, even whe.
