Font Forget"

Many years ago, writes Thomas Bal
ley Aldrich in 'POngapog Papers,"
nOLeu Boston publisher used to keep
large memorandum book on q table In
las private office The volume always
lay open, and was in no manner a pri-
vate affair, being the receptacle Of
nothing more important than hastily
scrawled reminders to attend to this
thing or the other.
1t CHANGED one day that very
young, unfedged author, passing
through the city, looked in upon the
publisher, who was also the editor Of
famous magazine. The unfledged
had copy of verses secreted about
his person. The publisher was absent,
and young Milton sat down and
waited
Presently his eye fell upon the men,
orandum book, lying there spread out
like morning newspaper, and almost
in spite Of himself he read, Don't for
get to see the binder" Don't forget
to mail r. his contract" s"Don't forget
HIS proofs" and so forth.
An inspiration seized upon the youth.
He took a pencil, and at the tail of
this long list of don't forgets" he
wrote, Don't forget to accept AS
poem"
He left his manuscript on the table
and disappeared. That afternoon,
when the publisher glanced over his
memoranda, he was not little aston
ished at the last item; but his sense Of
humor was so strong that he did ac-
cept the poem-it required a strong
sense of humor to do that-and sent
the lau a check for it, although the
verses remain to this day imprinted.

Almost any clerk will take his hat in

but the native clerk in India Is defer
entail by nature. Tit Bits gives a char
acteristic bit of baboo English written
by one who wanted a holiday:
"Most Exalted Sir-It Is with most
habitually devout expression of my
most sensitive respect that l approach
the clemency of your masterful posi-
ton with the self-dispraising utterance
of my esteem, and the also forgotten
by-myself assurance that in my own
mind | shall be freed from the assump-
ton that | am asking objectionable do

respite from my eXertions-indeed, a
fortnight's holiday, as l am suffering
from three boils, as per margin.

scribing myself your exalted rever-
ence's servitor. X"
Apparently the young man feared
that his humble and touching epistle
would not suffice. In the margin he
had drawn a rough but graphic pic
ture. showing the location of the three
boils upon his own person.

The Good Government Club was
aroused yesterday over the circulation
of a printed letter against Cecil Brown
which purported to have been signed
by P. F. Ryan, VIM. NJ Cunningham,
Frank Turk and thirty-seven others.
The owners of the names mentioned
denied positively having had anything
to do with the circular and denounced
it as a canard. The three gentlemen
swore to an affidavit to this extent.
The circular was sent through the
mails il. what purported to be Good
Government Club envelopes. AS the
club has had no stationery of the kind
yet, this was a fake on the face of it.

follows:
