The Woman

She belonged to a society for the
prevention of cruelty to animals, but
she made the poor dressmaker work
day and night to get her ball dress
ready on time, and then forgot to
pay the dressmaker for weeks and
weeks.
She belonged to the society for the
amelioration of humankind, but she
was keen on hunting bargains that
were made possible by the toll and
Sufferings of her sisters in noisome
sweat shops.
She reprimanded the small boy that
threw stone at a cat, yet she drove
a team of horses with locked tails.
She wrote a beautiful article for
the local paper advocating the organi-
zation of Audubon societies among the
boys and girls, then donned a hat
containing three stuffed birds and
gailX went to the editors sanctum to
submit the article.
She was chairman OF the committee
on social science at the club, and gave
the servant girl a cherries garnet
with broken and marred furniture.
She was prominent in her church
kensington and read paper deploring
the fact that the poor do not attend
church more, and while reading it
she wore silks and satins enough to
defray the living expenses of the
average workingman' family for six
months.
Something about the inconsistency
of the men might be added to this,
but space is too limited to make even
a start on that subject

Crockett and the Mules

When Davy Crockett sat in the ma
tional legislature as a representative
of the state of Texas he had many
clashes with men of more education,
but less wit than himself. 1t is told
of him that one day while standing
in front of his hotel on Pennsylvania
avenue, drove of mules trotted by
under the custody of an overseer
from one of the stock farms in Vir-
ginia. A congressman from Boston,
who was standing near by, attracted
Crockett's attention to the unusual
sight, saying:
.Hello there, Crockett; here's a lot
of your constituents on parade.
Where are they going?"
The celebrated hunter looked at the
animals with a quizz1cal glance, and
then turning to the other said quietly
but with great emphasis. "They are
going to Massachusetts to teach
school. "-Harper's Weekly.

Brain Leaks

When jealousy sneaks in love slips
out.
Some people pray like they ask for
rebates.
Cheerfulness is a flower that must
be cultivated.
Satan is always experimenting with
new bait for wary fish
The fruits of industry must be ir-
rigated with perspiration.
The greatest heroes are those who
have spent their lives for others.
When man does his very best,
God will take care of the final result.
Men who build good characters
need never worry about their reputa-
tions.
The best parts or vacation are
looking forward to it and looking back
wards at it.
The worst failures we have ever
seen have been scored by men whom
the world has called successful.
They may be necessary, but some
how or other we can never have a
friendly feeling for dog catchers.
There are husbands whose ideal
woman is one who can retain her
good nature when the jelly refuses to
jell.
The business man who strives mere
ly to keep just inside the law is not
safe man to trust with your bust
ness.
One trouble with most men is that
they think they could do another mans
work better than they ever do their
own.
The waitless barber shop would de-
prive a lot of men of an excuse for
staying down town late on Saturday
night.
The man who is always looking for
the smooth road has no reason to
complain if other men drive first to
the goal of success.
The workman who makes it prin-
ciple to take an interest in his work
sooner or later has the principal in
terest in the product.
| Sacrifice does not consist in giving
| away something you do not want, nor
in refraining from doing something
you do not want to do.
1t is sad commentary on our boast
ed civilization that the newspapers
think it necessary to print columns
about a public official who is trying
to expose graft.
The fellow who wins is the fellow
who hustles out and gets job. The
fellow who is always hanging on by
his eyebrows is the fellow who "ac-
cepts situation"
The old patriarch declared, Il said
in my haste all men are liars and
we have often wondered what else
he would have said if he had not
been pressed for time.
An English court has decided that
no man is a gentleman who earns his
living. We have gentlemen, then, at
both ends of American society. Those
at one end we call "tramps;" those

DOROTHY

Two little blue little eyes
Laughing and dancing with glee.
And the tresses that fly
AS the breezes go by
Are giving sweet welcome to me.
Neat little sweet little feet
Dancing and prancing with cheer,
And the angelic grace
OF the bright smiling face
Like vision of joy doth appear.
Red little spread little lips
Lisping welcome to me,
And the prints of kiss
From the lips of the miss
Bid worry and sorrow to fee.
Smile all the while, little girl.
Carry your message of light.
And the touch of your hands
Shall sever cares bands
And make all my burdens grow
light.
