SAITH THE OWL.


In the comic opera of life the chorus

One good thing about rainbow gold
is that we can't squander it on bar
gains.
Many fond young writer's hopes
come home cofiined in long white en-
velopes.
The only jewels that man should not
be ashamed to wear are the bcads OF
honest toll.
Go abroad and Godspeed you. my
friends. But forget the sights you see
before you see me again.
A modern financier is youth OF to-

ther-in-law take care of them both.
Consider the ways OF the popular

DOG KEEPS SMILING NOW.

Wilkesbarre. Pa. DR.. Fred s.
Birchard, of Scranton, has a dog with
a solid gold tooth. The dog is proud
of it. The animal is valuable Eng

ing that one of its front teeth was
very much decayed, DR.. Birchard took
the dog to a dentist friend. The
dentist suggested that the best thing
to do was to insert gold tooth.
III do it now" said the dentist
who is great lover of animals The
operation took little more than half
an hour. All that time the intelligent
animal laid back in his masters arms,
submitting with an occasional whine
of pain.
Now it sports about with its fine
gold tooth, curiosity for all the

There are a great many armies"
in China, but the only one that counts
is Yuan Shi Kais northern army"
The Chinese are raising big horses
somewhere in Mongolia for the ulti-
mate use of the army, and hope to
remount their cavalry in about four
years. OF the other arms the men
are smart and the recent spring ma
neuvers were most creditable.
There are serious flaws in the army.
The Chinese soldiers will blaze aw2y
blank cartridges in fine style, but they
are not trained to shoot. Target prac-
tice is rare. 1t is doubtful If the men
would follow their officers except to
the rear, and it is doubtful if the OH.
GERS would go anywhere else.

Uses Sea Water: Face. Ein..

Boulogne.-A woman who took two
buckets of water from the sea to
bathe her child, in accordance with
the doctors orders, was astonished
to receive an official warning from the
customs officers threatening to fine
her for breach Of the law. There has
been discovered an unrepealed law of
Louis XIV. forbidding the taking Of
sea water lest those taking it extract
the salt, and thus defraud the govern
ment of the salt tax. The woman has
written a declaration of the purpose
for which the water was obtained in

Being elbowed by a vulgar mob isn't

Overdressing, overeating and too
