ND you ever write a joke, and have some

DID you ever write joke, and have some
IL kind friend inform you that he read it
wears ago in such and such a paper! -
Or insinuate, mildly, that YOU made it over from
something he said to you the day betore!-or
point with derision to the very issue OF the
magazine from which you purloined it?
Know, then, that there is no such thing in
this gay world as a new joke. Your witty
friend who effervesces merriment on summer
night when the lights of the city act like cham
payne upon his brain-scintirating as his
repartee may be-has never yet, and never
will, give utterance to new joke. In support
of this statement are hereby appended few
examples OF condolences that have come under
my personal observation.

presumption that after a year the joke is a
new one again.

An Embarrassing Experience
T NOW come to my most interesting, as well
1 as most embarrassing, experience in this
line The following appeared over my sigma

Chapter Ill.
Acrimony.
Chapter Nv:

l hereby take oath, depose and state;
wrote that thing myself, all alone, with pen
Gil and riming dictionary, and the idea of the
similarity of the two words "Matrimony" and
"Alimony."
And the following appeared in the exchange

and on the stands the same week with Puck :

Men have been hung on less evidence than
this. l don't know when this squib was first
printed, nor where Mr.. Chaparral resides; or,
if he is a magazine, where his publication

way back last summer, and submitted it to

of embarrassment, however. especially because
the two magazines were issued practically the
same day.

tense. Here is the point: a man who is writ
ing humor can be original only in the form of
his expression; never in the elemental idea.
And the who is quick to suspect plagiar-

exposes his own inexperience. Why, l once
printed yarn that Mark Twain had used long
years before l was born. Shall l accuse our
great American humorist of stealing my thun-

GONE years ago the King of AMMAN was
y somewhat Perplexed to devise means to
defend a considerable amount of recently
acquired treasure, seeing that in AMMAN iron
safes of good resisting power are unknown,
and in view of the further fact that unfortu-
nately among His Majesty's loyal subjects there
were no inconsiderable number of adroit
thieves. So, therefore, the King had to resort
to some means in harmony with the natural
circumstances of his country.
Armed human guards he could not fully
trust. Animals do not steal money, and nature
had supplied His Majesty with an animal that
could not be wheedled or killed except with a
great deal of danger and trouble. The croco-
die is such an animal. Happy thought The
King would have the crocodile guard his
specie reserve.
Yet to avail himself of the services of the
crocodile, he must keep his money in place
where crocodiles are at home. Nothing was

SAN FRANCISCO, October 31.-Isa-
las w. Hellman, president of the Ne
vadan National Bank of San Brancis-
co, and Homer S. King, manager of
the Wells-Fargo Bank have issued
statements to the effect that the banks
of San Francisco are solvent, but are
unable at the present time to obtain
the balances of millions due them from
Eastern banks on account of the ex-
listing scarcity of coin due to the finan-
cial panic. The Hibernian Bank, with
thirteen million dollars worth of gov
eminent bonds in its vaults is unable
to get few hundred thousand dollars
from the sub-treasury for its imme-
date use.

A Long Look Into the Future.

The Atlanta Constitution suggests
the following as forecast of what
may be expected the last Of the pres
ent century:
Atlanta, Ga, July 80, 1999.-In
some excavations here to-day there
was found, in what appeared to be an
old cellar of once stately mansion,
number of jugs containing a queer
liquid, pleasant to the taste and
smell, and found upon imbibing to
produce a peculiar and seductive ex-
hilaration, followed by a period OF
depression, accompanied by desire
for renewed potations. 1t Is said to
have been a liquor used by the inhab-
itants in the early part of the present
century, and the people are eagerly
almost madly-searching the records
in the effort to recover the lost secret
of it's manufacture. so far it has
only been learned that it was, upon
occasion, mixed with a sort of grass
and slipped through straws. A big
reward has been offered for the dis
covery of the recipe for making It,"

The Patch as 6 Guide.

morning two applicants appeared
one a decidedly decent looking man,
and the other of much less prepo-
sessins appearance and manner.
After very little hesitation, the man
Of the house chose the latter appli-
cant.
A friend who was present evinced
surprise at the selection, asking:
HAS that man ever worked for
you before?" . ..
mo-" replied the other; lin fact
I never saw either of them before
to-day"
"Then why did you choose the
shorter man? The other had much
the better face" .#...s
"Face!" exclaimed the proprietor
of the place in disgust. "Let me tell
you that when you pick out gard
ener you want to go by his overalls.
If they're patched on the knees you
want him. If the patch is on the seat
of the trousers you don't"

WE LOSE PHILIPPINE TRADE
Our Exports to the Islands Fell OFF
20 Per Cent Last Year.

The foreign trade of the Philippines
underwent considerable shrinkage
last year. The most unsatisfactory
feature Of the annual review given by
the Journal of the American Asiatic
Association is that American goods in
1906 suffered the first serious check to
the progressively growing demand
that has been shown in previous
years Of American occupation.
The decline in imports from the
United States, amounting to more
than a million dollars as compared
with those Of 1905, is out Of all pro-
portion to the reduction in the gene
raj import trade Of the islands, and
indicates that the United States has
borne the whole brunt of the import
decline for the whole year exclusive
Of the items of rice and opium.
This decline from S5,589,946 to $4,-
|477,886 places the United States in
the second rank Of the countries ex-
porting to the Philippines, and leaves
the United Kingdom the largest ex-
porter TO the islands for the year.

Harvesting by Moonlight.

Several thousand acres Of Lehigh
county wheat were cut last week by
moonlight. The harvest, already three
weeks late on account of cold wea-
ther in the spring, was much delayed
by the rains of the last fortnight.
Farmers accordingly took advantage
of the full moon to cut their grain,
which was dead ripe. Self binders
were brought into play and relays Of
horses used. The moon was SO
bright that it was easy to reap the
grain by night as by day. Some far
mers kept their binders running with
out stopping for sixty hours.
The farmers paid their neighboring
boys and girls twenty cents an hour
to shock the grain as fast as the
reapers cut 1t. besides giving them
three meals, breakfast, dinner and
supper, and three luncheons, at 8 a.
m, $50 p. m. and midnight. Some
of the boys and girls worked full
twenty-four hours for a day, making
$3.50, bsides getting their boardt
This is believed to be the record paid
for farm labor in the United States.
Even at that the farmers regard the
work done for them more as an ac-
commodation than cold-blooded labor
done for ire.-Philadelphia Public

they have not occupied the building
for four or five months, officials of
the Standard Oil Company have been,
for the past week, cleaning out their
former Offices in this city, and have
kept the furnace hot with old docu-

and there consigned to furnace.
