JOKE ON THE CONGRESSMAN.
Waiter Drew Wrong Inference from
Guests Attitude.

A Georgia congressman gleefully
tells of an experience during his last
visit to New York.
The representative had put up at an
American-plan hotel. When. upon sit
ting down at dinner the first evening
of his stay, the waiter obsequiously
handed him bill of fare, the con-
gresham tossed It aside, slipped the
waiter a dollar bill, and said, Bring
me good dinner"
The dinner proving satisfactory, the
southern member pursued this plan
during his entire stay in New York.
AS the last tip was given, he men
toned that he was about to return to
Washington.
Whereupon, the waiter, with an ex-
preston of great earnestness, said:
We'll, sir, when you or any of your
friends that can't read come to New
York, just ask for Dick. "-Harper's

WHY HE WANTED LAW.
Man Had to BE Forced Into Paths of
Righteousness.

Congressman James e. Watson of
the Sixth Indiana district told a story
While in town recently, anent the OPP
GRAFTON of the pure food law, and in
tended to illustrate his expressed
theory that more people would be
good If they had to be.
1T was while we were wrestling
with the pure food bill at Washing
tom he said, that l got a letter from
home, written by man from whom /
bought big quantity of maple strip
each year. He urged me to fight for
the pure food bill. Now, / couldn't
help remembering, to save my life,
that this man bought five barrels of
brown sugar at the opening of the
maple molasses season. So l wrote
him note suggesting that advocacy
of pure food measure seemed odd
from man who bought five barrels
of brown sugar before beginning the
manufacture of his pure maple strip.
Never feazed him. He turned my
letter over and wrote on the back: L
know it, but | want the law to make

"eoNe TO THE DEVIL
London Inn Responsible for origin Of
Common Saying.

The old inns of England have been
responsible for the origin of many
common sayings. An instance of this
is the proverbial phrase "He has
gone to the devil" On Fleet street,
London, near Temple Bar, was once a
tavern which was known by the strict
ly old-fashioned name, THE Devil and
Saint Dunstan." 1t was famous for its
good dinners and excellent wines. and
received a large patronage from the
lawyers of Temple Bar
1t was Familiarity known as "The
Devil" and when lawyer left his
Office to go there he usually left a no
tice on his door, Gone to the Devil"
There were some who patronized the
tavern to the neglect of their business,
and the notice was so regularly exhib-
tied on their doors that 1t finally came
to be used to characterize the man
who was losing his grip and going to
destruction.-The Sunday Magazine.

of Manchester was being teased by
some young women of his acquaint.

and used great caution in preparing
her ballot and disguised her handwrit-

The result was that there were nine
votes cast, each receiving zone. The
man remains bachelor, the friend

mortal enemies, united in the one de-
termination that they will not speak to
the man again.-The Taller.
