CHOOSING PRESENTS.

"Its an awful tax on ones ingenu-
ity to pick out presents for ones
friends, but when it comes to picking
out gifts for ones relations a man
finds himself up against a fearful
proposition" remarked Mr. E. H.
Sothern the other day. "Now, there's
my brother Sam, for instance. He
is the most finicky, captious, epicurean
sort of chap, when 1t comes to re-
ceiving presents, of any one l know.
In my capacity of elder brother l used
to make point of giving a present to
| Sam on his birthday, but l have stop
ped it now since a certain little ex-
perience | had with him some years
ago. He had put aside so many of
MY birthday gifts that this year | de.
,ded to employ ruse. So went to
Sam the day before his birthday and
said, Look here, Sam. ] want you to
come down to the jewelers. with me
and pick out as handsome a present
as you can find for me to give Rich
ard Harding Davis. Dicks been
awfully kind and nice to me lately
He let me buy one of his plays which
wasn't any good, and-well, l don't
know; l just want to show him I ap-
preciate all his little kindnesses' So
Sam and l went to the jewelers., and
after half an hours work Sam finally
picked out a very gorgeous and elab-
crate scarfpin.
Are you sure that Dick will like
that?" I asked him.
"Why, of course he'll like it; he is
fool If he doesn't" said Sam, "it's
magnificent PIN"
The next morning at breakfast, after
few elderly brotherly remarks
handed the pin to Sam. Instantly the
air became blue with the oaths that
issued from him in an unholy torrent.
Stung and shocked by the way he
received the gift, cried out with
equal indignation:
"Well, - it, you told me it was
magnificent pin, you picked it out
yourself; you said it was all right"
"Yes," Sam shouted back, II said it
was all right for Dick Davis: I
wouldn't be seen dead with it on"

is in command of the Department
OF Luzon in the Philippines 1t is like
ly that he will be succeeded by Brig
adier-General Frank D. Baldwin. who
will serve until next June, then be re-
tired. Gen. Randall's retirement will
give President Roosevelt an opportun-
ity to appoint other officers to ad-
vanced rank and retire them. 1t will
afford also tie occasion for advancing
Gen. John F. Weston to be made
Major-General. AS has been repeated
before. however. this promotion, which
is unusual because of the strong op-
position to placing staff officers in
posts of high command, has been de-
.termined upon as reward for years
of splendid service rendered to Gen
eral Weston, who became we'll known

in Cuba and who is frequently men
