No Wonder He is Insane.

detentlon:
Il met a young widow with a grown
step-daughter and the widow married
me. Then my father, who was a widow

her. That made my wife the mother
tn-law Of her father-in-law, and made
my step-daughter my mother and my
father my step-son. Then my step
mother, the step-daughter of my wife,
a son. That boy was, of course,
brother, because he was my faith

Gun Pointers Are Doing Good WORE

Washington, April 2.-The North At
lantic squadron is making more good
gun practice from reports to the navy
department. Today's report from Lieu
tenant Commander Simms, the inspec-
tor Of rifle practice with this squadron
who is now at Pensacola, Fla, is to the
effect that. three out of the four gun
pointers in the thirteen inch turretss of
the Indiana made a percentage of 100 in
hits. On the Illinois, all foul Of the
gun pointers Of the thirteen inch guns
made an average Of seventy-ive per
cent. in hits. This was not s~ub-calibre
practice, but was made at a distance
of sixteen hundred yards, each shot
striking a target seventeen by twenty
one feet.

them up today I find only twenty-three

with that other clothespin? Did you

out in front Of a horse block?"

Mr.. Bowser to himself as he rubbed
his eyes and looked around to see if be
was in the wrong house.
There is the garbage pail" contin-
ued Mrs. Bowser as she walked up and
down the room with her hands behind
her after his usual custom. at has
been in use less than six years, and yet
there is a hole in it's side into which
you could thrust a darning needle. Are
you going to lay it to the cats or the
cook? Are you going to make me be-
lieve that you didn't take a brad awl
and stand off and deliberately jab that
pail? These things may surprise you,
but let me say that l have had my eye
on you for some time. What have you
got to say for yourself"
IL am Bowser," he faltered, "and
IL don't understand. l started out to
have a talk with you, and"-
"And it ended in my having a talk
with you. Yes, you are Bowser, but
what is that to me? 1 notice that the
milk bill is 3 cents higher this month
than last. How comes it so? Have you
been selling the milk to get money to
play poker with? Have you been ask
ing all the tramps in town to come here
apd drink it up? If not, then you must
have willfully and maliciously poured
it out on the ground to make all the
expense possible"
Mr.. Bowser was in a daze, He sat
looking at the cat, but he couldn't have
told whether she had four legs or six
teen.
"And there's the butcher bill,' she
went on after q long look at him. Its
for 7 cents, the balance on q steak
bought two weeks ago. l give you mon
ey to run the house, and yet you go and
pile up debts on me and squander the
cash in gimcracks and gewgaws. How
do | know how much money you owe
the grocer and baker and milkman? If
you were to die tonight and each one Of
them sent in a bill for $500 tomorrow,
how could l dispute them? Nice sort of
a husband you are. Nice way to run q
house,
Mr.. Bowser realized that his words
and expressions were coming home to
roOst and that he was in danger of los
ing his grip. He therefore made 4
great effort to rally and suddenly
turned on Mrs. Bowser with:
woman, l command you to stop, |

And, man, command you" she re-
piled. and | want you to understand
that ! won't stand it. 1t has been evil
