THE WRONG KIND OF LOVE.

Bent of Thought.

Bent of Thought.
William H. Maxwell, the superin-
tendent of the public schools Of New
York, believes that free meals should
be provided for such school children
as get insufficient nourishment at
home, on the ground that child suf-
fering from hunger cannot learn its
lessons.
Mr.. Maxwell was describing the 9TH
day the free-meal system of the Paris
schools. Suddenly he paused and
smiled.
when this system was introduced
in Paris" he said, "a teacher at an
English Sunday school explained it to
her pupils, ana told them that love
had caused the systems adoption, and
without love the world would be a
poor place for children and for all
helpless and infirm persons.
Next Sunday she said, I want
each of you to come prepared to re-
cite a scriptural verse about love-
"The next Sunday duly arrived and
the children had all prepared their
verses. One had Love your enemies;
another Little children. love one an
other and so ON.
Finally small boy with red hair
arose. He began in a loud, shrill
voice:

Ladies' Costume.

A very stylish suit for fall and
early winter is here shown. The skirt
is made with double flounce so fash
ionable just now, with panel front and
yoke. Both panel front and yoke can
be omitted, however, as the skirt will
still be very smart without them.
Trim with stitched bands Of taffeta,
or If made of broadcloth, trim with
bands of the cloth. The waist is one
of the prettiest of the new models,
and has the long-shouldered effect
given by the cape bertha. The sleeve
is close fitting at the top and is loose
at the lower part, which is the pre-.
vailing style. The waist also gives

PERT PARAGRAPHS.


Summer vacation is at hand for most
Of us. ana we spend the time worry
ing about where we shall go and what
we shall do when we get there.
Summer resort weather has been on
hand for some time In the past, and
wise ones will salt down supply and
put IT on ice for use when the ether
kind comes along.
IL always puzzles a man TO know
whether the girl who says she does not
like ice cream is only leading him on.
The fool who rocks the boat Is about
ready TO receive his yearly average OF
drowning.
II is not hard to invent a new Ian
guage. Every woman with baby
originates one.
IL Is but a step from the sublime TO
the ridiculous when a dignl6ed mans
foot finds banana peel
Perhaps a cyclone is unpopular be-
cause IL never stays long enough in a
place TO make friends.
II is lucky for woman that man can't
understand her. otherwise she would
cease 10 be interesting.
Perhaps the reason why hot weather
is 80 bad for the temper is because It
Is also so bad for the poeketbook.

MEXICAN CHARACTERISTICS
Useless Employees Are Kept on Rail-
road Pay Roll as a Matter
Of Habit.

A. little story from Tehuantepec Is
just finding its way into railroad cir
cles here It casts no reflection ON the
ability of a certain Tehuantepec rail-
road man.. but 1t does emphasize the
fact that the oil burner is a new thing
in Mexico. states the Mexican Herald.
Wood had been the common fuel on
the locomotives Of that road before the
oil burners were placed In service.
The firemen on that road we're assist
ed by mem known as wood passers.
The Tehuantepec is not the only road
in Mexico where wood passers are on
the pay roll. II naturally follows that
when the oil burners were placed In
commission, the roads wood passers
would have to go. They have gone.
but they were late in going. The wood
passer wasn't going to suggest that
he be let ont, and calmly waited to be
notified that his services were no
longer required.
The oil burners had been running
some time when one day visitor,
standing beside the man whose duty
1t was to look after those things,
asked the man why he didn't take the
wood passers OF the oil burners He
added that he didn't see what good
they could do ON an engine burning
oil. Apparently 1t was the first time
the man had thought about the fact.
The next day every oil burner went
out without a wood passer.

Sure! That's all right"
II don't know whether It is or not I
didn't get fresh with your bald spot

You don't need to get mad about It,"
said the tobacconist..
IF l want to wear flower I guess
it's my privilege" continued the young
man. Il may wear a flower every day
in the week and two on Sunday. You
don't know. You never saw me before,
as know Of. You've probably got me
mixed up with somebody you went to
school with, the way you talk"
'Ill take 1t all back" said the tobac-
conist
YOU'D better not bring 1t out the
next time" said the young man with
threatening shake of the head. you
can't make monkey of me-, want to
tell you. You're josher, you are. You
must think that line O. talk is trade

Der introducing her to you. How would
1t be II you tended to your cigar busi-
ness? Say, IL you've got any friends

Nov, see here" began the tobacco
mist.
IF you've got anything to say about
my necktie you might as we'll get 1t
off your mind" said the young man.
Maybe you'd like to know about the
girl, too"
"No. sir. L don't" said the tobacco
mist wrathfuily. II don't care hang
about her or you. You can go and see
her or you can stay away from her,
just as you dern please, just so long as
you get out Of this store. A man may
have crouch, but he can't rub 1t into
me, more than about so much.
The young man turned TO the cigar
lighter and lit his cigar with ostenta-
tious elaboration. At the door he
turned.
Talking about that bald spot of
yours" said he, "it looks as II you'd
been having trouble with your WIFE"
The tobacconist glared at the spot
where the young man had stood for
nearly minute. Then his features re-
Taxed. Maybe I amt the first that's
told him that this afternoon" he said.

A DIFFERENCE.


From them who come to grumtle when
They think the world has used them Ill
We long to flee nor see again,
We wish they might, at least. keep still
The luckless ones who come with means
We long to set upon with stones.
From them who come to boast how much
They have or are about to win,
We long to flee; we wish that such
Fools might find holes and there craw
in.
With empty pride they rouse our hate,
Their very smiles exasperate.
All, but they please us who appear
With hopeful cheering words to say,
And, as they say them, let us hear
How great they think care, who lay
Sweet stress upon our excellence
We love them for their glad good sense.
