A TIMELY "REMINISCENCES
It was at the Republican convention in
1892 that certain delegate felt aggrieved
because of the machine which was alleged
TO exist at that time.
He wanted to attend the Minneapolis
convention as a delegate, and he let his
wants be known to one of the party
bosses
a little while after his friend came to
him and said:
We'll. John. the slate is all fixed up for
the delegation"
Now. that is what is defeating the
Republican party in Kansas" he said.
"A lot of self-seeking politicians get to-
Sether and fix up a slate and the great
common people have nothing to say about
affairs l tell you few more such acts
will forever knock out the party and
But hold on, john said his friend.
Your name is on the slate"

Brevity is the sole of wit. No one wants
to wait long on a laugh.
The memory of a good joke will keep one
smiling through a whole day of hard
work.
Laughter makes work light
Women are said TO be devoid Of humor.
And yet any man will tell you that his
wife always sees something funny in
every time he gets hurt.
A smile is d greater remover of youth
than any sort of cosmetic, and far more
becoming. MRS. "DODSON-

A magazine says "A mother should
spend portion of every day playing with
her baby's toes" This sounds ROOse-
veltian, if a woman is to be expected u
keep one baby small enough all the time
to play with its toes. There is a limit,
even to babies toes.

", being engaged in writing in
his study. a hawk drove bird
against the window. It proved
to be a goldhnch, and as the mar
rator subsequently, learned, his
friend had died on the afternoon
OF the same day. The. bird. as
he put It, came back TO ne and
strictly fulfilled lis mission, i
announced to me her death, and
its spirit returned to sing a requi-
en- over the grave Of lis beloved
mistress. "
