He Hit the Bookmaker.

Patrick Murphy had an afternoon
off. so he thought he would go out to
see the horse races.
Pat had heard about the fortunes
made at the race track, so he thought
he would try his luck. He went down
stairs before every race, but didn't
find any odds that suited him until
the last race 1t was a large gray
horse. | don't remember its name,
but 1t suited Pat all right, for 1t had
50-1 after it.
y Pat put up his dollar and went up
stairs to see the race. His horse won
by a neck. Pat hurried downstairs
with a lively step to cash in his
check.
1t was the last race Of the day and
the bookmaker was anxious to get
rid of his silver, therefore Pat was
paid with silver dollars.
Pat stood there a few minutes FUN
bling over his handful of silver dol
lars, when the bookmaker hollered:
Whats the matter, Irish? Don't you
think they are good?"
Pat said: "They look all right, but

full upon his face. His forehead wasI

1t was simply the ordinary in

answered many such, so 1t was with
out any surprise that he opened the
accompanying form to see which Of

$1,000"
Briggs knew how it had happened.
He remembered now signing a pro-
posal for $1,000 in the "Golconda, :"
but he had no idea of taking
policy. The local agent of the
company had asked him to APP
ply, explaining that, though his sig
nature bound him to nothing, his pro-
posal would swell the agency's record
of business for the year. The agent
had bought Briggs drink that day.
and then proposed his signing as a
personal favor-mentioning that 1t
would be better not to give his oc-
cupation as that of postmaster. So
Briggs had signed, and again accepted
the agents courtesy. and the result
was this set of questions.
To Briggs mind there was some
thing grimly humorous in the idea of
writing about himself, and so he de-
cided to answer the questions Pull
ing the sheet toward himself. he
dipped his pen into the muddy ink.
The first question was: Does this
person appear to be in good health?"
Still keeping up the jest. the post
master rose, stepped over to where a
jagged piece of looking glass stood on
a shelf, and examined his appearance
therein critically. When he sat down
again. his face was more sober. and
picking up his pen, he wrote: mo"

asked the sheet. The reader WINGED

plainly, mo"

themselves, but is contained in thou

cover their surface. The vital nicotine

as 1t is impossible to shave OF these
hairs, and would be scarcely COM
