A Booth Tarkinqton Joke.

Booth Harrington, whose stories Of
people and politics, I'm the Arena"
have just been brought out by Nc
Clure-Phillips, had many amusing ex-
periences during the campaign which
preceded his election about two years
ago to the lower house of the Indiana
state legislature. His campaign man
ayers were a little afraid that he would
prove too much of an exquisite. They
We're much disturbed lest his incina-
coat, daintily colored waistcoat and
patent leather shoes, should antage-
nize the "workingman's vote" They
harped on this point so much that
their candidate became somewhat an
noyed by it. One day, when attired in
his best, he was out walking thru the
poor section of the town with num-
Der of his campaign managers. They
CHANGED to pass a paint factory.
We might go in here said Candi-
date Harrington, land see the men,"
The sight of the paint splashing
about made Tarkingtons followers
hesitate, but he was already thru the
door, and as they entered they saw
him shaking the paint-smirched paw
of the nearest Nottingham
Let me introduce my friend. Mr.
Jones'" said Harrington, passing the
man on to the nearest politician.
The professional politicians had no
choice and each had to go thru the
process Of shaking every paint-cover-
ed hand in that factory. Thereafter
Mr.. Harrington was allowed to wear
his good clothes in peace.
