The Girl That Laughs
(From The Kansas City World. }

kEEOm he huuSdS ClUy WOTlu
Girls spend considerable time trying
to find out how to be popular. 1t is
natural that girl should seek ap.
proval and admiration. Her popu-
larity means a good time, boxes of
candy, theatres, dances, flowers
everything that the hearts of the
young delight in.
The girl that is popular is the girl
who laughs. Not the girl that sim.
pers and Fuckers or giggles, but1the
girl that laughs and means it. The
girl that laughs can have candy and
flowers and theatres every day in the
week.
Men flock about her. They adore
her. She laughs herself straight into
the hearts of beaux and admirers and
straight into all the good times that
a girl can dream of.
She laughs, but she is careful when
she laughs. She laughs with her
beaux, but never at them. She laughs
at what they say when they say it,
but never afterward. She laughs at
their jokes, but never about them.
She never laughs at any ones blund-
ers or misfortunes.
Women forget to worry when they
hear the cheerful girls laugh. Old
men are warmed at the sound of it.
Young men listen and follow it, pay
court to it, marry it. For it is the
laugh that keeps the heart young,
the laugh that keeps the face bright.

BRITISH DRINKING,
Scotch Take the Most Spirits, Eng
Iish the Most Beer


A contradiction OF the assertion that
drunkenness is on the increase in Great
Britain has been entered by the Rev.
Dawson Burns, d. D., in a contribution
to the London Times, says United States
Consul Mahin, at Nottingham, England,
in a recent report. A table submitted
by DR.. Burns shows a decline in the
production of intoxicating liquors of
about $25,0O0,000 in 1903, as compared
with 1902.
He suggests no reason for this de-
cline, but adds that as business in near
ly all lines was very dull during the
year, as the number of people out of
work was greater than in 1902, and as
the drink habit is most prevalent
among wage earners, it is not unfair to
surmise that the decreased consump-
ton of liquors may have been involun-
tary.
DR.. Burns says that an analysis of
the returns for the United Kingdom
shows that Ireland consumed per head
slightly more spirits than England, and
Scotland nearly twice as much. OF
beer England consumed 70 per cent
more per capita than Ireland and over
300 per cent more than Scotland.

mrncin 0leWezrk Arrived

Mrncin Olewezrk arrived in town
last Friday from Warsaw, Russia,
and has taken up his abode in the
Polish settlement down near Pulpit
Rocks. An incident connected with
his journey here is interesting, al
though probably a common one with
the army of immigrants who yearly
adopt this country for their home.
On arriavlng in America immigrants
are required to have in their posses
sion small sum of money and
ticket to their destination, if they
wish to remain and growup with the
country. On reaching New York pas
sengers of the above description are
compelled to mbark at Ellis Is
land, short distance down the bay
and here they remain until they have
undergone rigid examination. Here
