ENJOYING the Horsehesh.

Beef was very scarce in Ladysmith
during the siege, but General Sir Ian
Hamilton, then a colonel, insisted that
"horse Is not half bad when properly
cooked and when one is used to it. In
fact" he said, concluding a discussion,
IT have a joint cooked tonight which
I hope you will all sample. OF course.
there's beef, too-tonight."
Every one at the table preferred the
beef, with the exception of Colonies
Ward and Ian Hamilton, who ostenta-
tiously carved generous slices from the
"horsefesh."
The dinner was nearly over, when
one of the servants whispered a COM
munication to Ward.
Up he sprang. Pm distressed, gen.
tlemen," he announced to the startled
ompany "a silly mistake has been
made. Those joints were mixed some
how. and you have been eating the
horse! I'm really annoyed. But
hope you'll be convinced now that the
meat is splendid eating. I'm sure you
all seemed to enjoy it."
Chances were exchanged; moustaches
were twirled. Nobody seemed ready
with a response.
Then a voice from the bottom of the
table piped up: oh, don't distress
yourself, Ward, l thought some mis-
take had been made, so l just changed
those dishes as they stood on the side
hoard. 1t was you and Hamilton had
the horsefesh all right!"-Tt-Bits.

Senator La Toilette is a graduate OF

perilously nea not being. Although
a p~ainstaking and earnest student,
and enjoying the respect alike of the
faculty and the student body, he
never stood high In his classes, On
final examination he fell slightly be-
low the mark prescribed for gradua-

won chief honors in an interstate COL
iegiate oratorical contest, thereby
bringing glory and renown to the great
institution at Madison. At that time
the university had as its president

the faculty together and made a fight
for young La Toilette. He pointed
out that while La Follette's examine

not up to the arbitrary standard pre-
scribed, he was still one of the hard
est working students ever at the uni

institution in the big oratorical con

after life. By a narrow margin the
faculty, by vote, reversed Its decision
against La Toilette. and granted him
a diploma. In a sense. therefore, Mr..
