They Left.

ct does me good to see 'smarty'
get the worst Of it," said the COM
municative tram-conductor to a pas
senger. "There were two Of them on
my car yesterday, and their game was
to scare people into thinking that they
were just recovering from smallpox.
They talked loudly about it for the
benefit of the other passengers, and
the more nervous ones, especially the
women, began to grow apprehensive.
YES said one, my case was a
pretty bad one, the doctors said
$50 was mine replied the other
fellow. 1T seems good to get out of
the hospital, doesn't itY
That's what it does said the first
one.
Sitting next to them was man
who had been taking it all in. At this
point he leaned over and said:
81 say, when did you fellows get
out?'
"tOnly yesterday loudly remarked
one Of them.
lis that so exclaimed~the man.
so did I. What ward were you in?'
"Well, those fellows jumped off the
car as though it had been struck by
lightning, and you couldn't see their
heels for dust"

He Sent All the News.

Knowing the aversion of her hus-
band to letter writing, the wife Of a
Chicagoan thus admoished him in his
departure on a recent eastern trip:
Nov, John, as neither l nor the
children can accompany you, you must
be eyes and ears for us, and drop us
an occasional postal card, telling us
anything Of interest you may see and
hear. Don't forget will you?"
The husband promised and took his
departure. The next morning but one
his wife received a postal card con-
tanning the following message: Dear
wife; I reached Pittsburg all right.
Yours aft"
Though disappointed, she excused
the brevity of the communication on
the ground that her husband was
doubtless pressed for tifTe. TWo days
later, however, another card arrived,
bearing the startling announcement:
Here I am in New York. Yours ever"
Still later came another: II am indeed
in New York. Yours"
The wife swallowed her disappoint-
ment and, being good at retaliation,
seized her pen and wrote: Dear hus-
band, the children and I are in Chi
cago. Yours"
A few days later she wrote again:
1--WE are still in Chicago"
In her next communication she grew
little more enthusiastic. She wrote:
Dear husband: Here we are in Chi
cago. l repeat it, sir. We are in
Chicago.
"P S.-We are, indeed"
In due time John reached home, and
fearing perhaps that his poor wife was
afflicted with some sort of dementia,
fastened to ask the meaning of her
strange messages. For answer she
slipped into his hand his own three
postal cards.-Chicago Tribune.

GERMANS IN SOUTH AMERICA
Percentage Not Large Enough to War
rant Fear of Imperial Conquest.

Percentage Not Large Enough to War
! rant Fear of Imperial Conquest.
| German migration to- South America,
and especially to some of the Southern
States of Brazil, is periodically a cause
of comment and concern to some who
think they see therein q sinister
scheme of imperial conquest. For two
or three strong reasons such fears
seem to us to be not we'll founded.
One such reason is that the number
of Germans in Brazil is not, after all,
ominously large. The total population
of Brazil, according to the census Of
1890, was Il 1913 915. No later census
returns are available but careful esti-
| mates now place the total at more
than 100000 of which number less
than 100000 are Indians and negroes,
leaving certainly more than 100000
whites Of these, in 1901, only 100000
were immigrants, and Of the latter
number only 100000 were Germans.
The latest and highest estimate Of
the number of Germans in Brazil is
only 100000, or little over per cent
of the whole. Really, we cannot re-
gard that as a dangerous percentage.
Nor does it represent the largest for
eign element, by any means. Portu-
guese immigrants into Brazil are twice
as numerous, and Italians three times
as numerous, as the Germans. Nor
vo%
certain States as to form a majority
Of their population, as some have i'm
agined. Germans are most numerous
in Rio Grande do Sui, where there are
100000 of them, but the whole popula-
ton of that State is 100000, so that
the Germans are less than one-fourth.
| In Santa Catharina the Germans are
100000 in q total of 100000 or one
third, the largest proportion in any
State. In Parana they are $4,000 in
$4,000, and in Sac Paulo 10000 in
100000.
It's pointed out as ominous that
these Germans continue to use their
own language, to publish newspapers
in German and to demand the official
use Of that language in courts and
schools. Well, the same may be said
of the Germans in New York, and in
| Milwaukee, and in many other parts
Of the United States.
The conquest which Germany hopes
for in Brazil is not political, but COM
mercial. The profit she looks for in
this migration of her subjects is to be
| found in increased commerce. In that
| Germany reckons shrewdly. Every
shipload Of Germans landed in Brazil
creates q demand for many shiploads
Of German manufactured goods. Ev-
cry so-called German colony in Brazil
means a market for German trade.
Upon this feature of the case too much
stress cannot easily be laid.-NeW
York Tribune.

Strength in Patience.

Patience is really the capacity for
and habit Of enduring or suffering. 1t
is shown by the serenity with which
we submit to the annoyances caused
us by others on the one hand, and is
displayed In wider and deeper sense
by the fortitude which one exhibits in
all the concerns Of life, in good and
bad fortune. It is an unfortunate
characteristic Of many energetic and
really able high-minded men that they
cannot await the issue of things; they
are impatient Of delay, must needs see
events result to their liking at stroke,
as 1t were, and therefore their inn
portant efforts end in disappointment
to- themselves and to others. Like the
squirrel in the cage, they make much
movement but no progress On the
other hand, there is occasionally
brought into high relief patient man
who grasps and l. blds in spite of the
greatest obstacles success so splen-
did that his endurance and the results.
Of 1t are an inspiration to the world.

She does not live on the avenue. She
lives on side street. The house has
only five rooms. 1t is a cosy home, all
in active use. AS the mortgage which
originally covered it grows less the
porches about the cottage grow larger.
1t was built for two and is now occu-
pied by four. There's Himself and
Herself and The Girl and The Boy
"us four and no more" Himself is a
man, every inch. He is hearty, indie
pendent, energetic and steady as a
clock. He has got his big feet firmly
planted on the lower round Of the sue
cess ladder and is climbing slowly,
surely, carefully. He loves Herself and
no other. The Boy and The Girl are
healthy youngsters. The Boy whistles
and The Girl sings and Herself does
not complain of shattered nerves.
But "HoW can q woman who
self?' Perhaps the happy little woman
might be unable to explain that. She
would say perhaps: "We have enough
and little to spare for the very poor.
And really there is satisfaction in deft-
ly darning Himself's Sunday coat And
there is zest in turning little garments
inside out and In puzzling ones brains
to make both ends Of the household
meet. We are getting on We have no
envy Of those who live in big houses.
We love one another and we are con-
tented. Love, you should remember,
is the greatest thing in the world and
contentlnent is the next to the greatest
thing. Here's your law Of compensa-
ton again-the joy Of service. If one
must wrinkle ones brow sometimes
over a household problem, studying
how one may "cut the corners for the
sake of Himself and The Other Two,
Of gravity, certain as the law of chemi-
cal affinity-one shall be paid back ten
fold! All, little woman (and that's the
pathos of it,, you don't know how itch
you are. Enjoy your children while
you may. Who knows? They may
grow up and honor your gray hairs
Or they may grow up and break your
heart. Or sonxe day you may live in a
big house where things are gilded and
life is hollow. The time may come
when there's no longer need for loving
calculation or willing self sacrifice
more's the pity. If that time shall
ever come to you, little woman, how
will you yearn for the days when you
