sUNFLowER PHILOSOPHY.

A four-year-old inquisitive boy
hasu't much the best Of a lawyer when
it comes to asking fool questions
After the average man is financially
able to take a vacation he is too busy
at home.
Occasionally a woman will allow her
husband to choose the clothes he
wears, but when it ocmes to choosing
the church to attend or the family doc
tor he takes hers or goes without.
Perhaps a memory that grows poorer
as the years pile up is a merciful thing,
seeing that all that most of us have to
remember is what fools we made of
ourselves.
When a natural born housekeeper
passes a yard where Their are clothes
on the line, she takes one look and can
tell afterward how many sheets, pillow
cases, tea towels, ETC., her neighbor
has in the wash every week.

JEFFERSON AS YOUNG MAN
Was an Athlete, But Was
Gentle,

Thomas Jefferson, when he left CO.
leee was one of the best Latin, Greek
and French scholars in his native state
of Virginia. At his majority he came
into an income OF $4,000 a year. which
in those days, 1851, was as good as
$4,000 year in these. Jefferson was
six feet two in his stockings (they
didn't wear socks in those days., and
an all-round athlete, dandy dancer
and an expert yiolinist.
AS Washington's secretary OF state
he advocated state sovereignty and de-
Capitalization Alexander Hamilton,
Washington's secretary OF the treas
ury, was just as stiff for Capitalization.
Washington took the middle course
between the two great rivals.
Jefferson, as president, eschewed all
pomp and ceremony. On his two in
auguration days, instead OF driving 10
the capitol in coach and six as mad
been the practice, ne rode there on
horseback, without guard or even
servant in his train, dismounted with
out assistance, and hitched the bride
OF his horse to fence. He could be
gentle as lambkln ANA as hard as
nails.

FUNNY STORIES.
eorns Merely TriHe Less Sad Than
Others, That Is All.

Seriously speaking, funny story
is no laughing matter. Humor is
one of the worlds great institutions,
a thing to be approached with rev.
erence akin to awe, as something
cold as the pole, impoFishable as the
pyramids and often a great deal
more ancient. If we abase ourselves
before ancient and holy things, can
we afford to laugh at the capers Of
the convict chimpanzee, who in
point of ancestry antedates the Pc
ter Lelys end Joshua Reynoldses Of
our baronial halls?
Funny stories, furthermore, are
usually based on something which
is not funny at all. Their points,
in fact, often depend solely upon
an unsympathetic view Of some
great human misfortune. What is
more pathetic to a sane mind than
a funeral or a harelip or a divorce
or a mother-in-law? Yet, shades of
Rameses, how useful they have be-
come in vaudeville!
i don't think that there are any
really side splitting stories in tho
world. Some are merely trltle less
sad than others; that is all. How
admirable is the calm philosophy of
the man who refused to ride with
his mother-ln-law at hls wires tn-
neral because as he explained, ut
would spoil the days pleasures for

received a letter the other day
that put me over the ropes
I'll paste it up here just to show
you that it's on the level:
philadelphia, This Week.
Dear John: have never met you
personally, but I've heard my brother,
Teddy. speak of you so often that you
really seem to be one of the family.
(Teddy talks slang something
fierce.)
Dear John, will you please pardon
the liberty take in grabbing a two
cent stamp and jumping so uncere-
moniousy at one who is, after all, a
perfect stranger?
Dear John, if you look around you
can see on every hand that the glad
season of the year is here, and If you
listen attentively you may hear the
hoarse cry of the summer resort
becloning us to that bourn from which
no traveller returns without getting his
pocketbook dislocated.
Dear John, could you please tell me
how to play bridge whist, so that when
| go to the seashore I will be armed
for defraying expenses.
Dear John, | am sure that If
could play bridge whist loud enough
to win four dollars every once in
awhile l could spend a large bunch
of the summer at the seashore.
Dear John, would you tell a low.
ing but perfect stranger how to play
the game without having to wear
mask?
"Dear John, played a couple of
games recently with wide-faced young
man who grew very playful and threw
the parlor furniture at me because /

did wrong. The fifth time | trumped
his ace the young man arose, put on
his gum shoes, and skeedaddled out of
the house. Is it not considered breach
of etiquette to put on gum shoes in the
presence of lady?
'If you please, dear John, tell me how
to play bridge whist.
yours fondly,
"GLADYS JONES.
"P. S.-The furniture which he threw
was not his property to dispose of.
&C. j."
When my wife got flash of this let
ter she made kick to the effect that
it was some kind of a cypher, possibly
the beginning of a secret correspond
ence.
1t was up to me to hand Gladys the
frosty get-back. so this is what said:
Respected Madam: I'm a slob on
that bridge whist thing, plain poker be-
ing the only game with cards that ever
coaxes my dough from the stocking, but
I'll do the advice gag if it chokes me;
Bridge whist is played with cards,
Just like pinochle, with the exception
OF the beer.
Not enough cards is a misdeal; too
many cards is mistake; and cards up
the sleeve is slap on the front piazza
If they catch you at It,
you shouldn't get up and dance the
snakentine dance every time you take
a trick. 1t looks more genteel and
picturesque to do the two-step.
"Whcn your opponent has not fol-
lowed suit it is not wise to pick out a
loud tone of voice and tell him about
it, Reach under The table and kick him
on the shins. If il hurts him he is
