The Building of a Witticism.

The October Bohemian has an article entitled. How a Joke is Made" In 1t Marshall P. Wilder the well known hu- morist, cites this story as an illustration of one method:
 Here is a story with joke Tn It about Labouchere, the genial editor of London Truth. When he was standing for the borough of Northampton for the English parliament a little girl came up to her father and said: Papa. who made Mir Labouchere? Why, Providence, my dear answered the somewhat astonished parent And what for?' inquiries the child Now that ism a bad joke. It was natural. anyway. But listen to one of mine which really has exactly the same point, though 1t is brought out in a diff ferent way. A child and her mother are on the cars Opposite them sits young man dressed in the height of fash ion. Says the child: Mamma, what is that?' and, as she asks the question she points to the young man opposite. Hush, my dear answers the mother. But mother, I want to know TO qulet the child the mother whispers in her ear: He Is what we call dude, dear. The child persists usual Tn gaining some more information. And who made him. mamma?' Why, Providence, dear. of course replies the mother sotto voce, whereat the child exclaims: oh. mother. doesn't Providence like to have fun sometimes?' You see, the stories are really alike. At all events the point is the same.

AID FOR NEGRO COLLEGES.
Presbyterian Committee Will Visit the
 South Soon.

Pttsburg, October 2S.-Rev. Dr. E. P. Cowan, secretary of the F'reedmen's board of the Presbyterian Church of America now in session here. and the Rev. Henry D. Linsay, president of the Pittsburg Col lege for Women. will go south next Mon day in the interest of schools and col leges for negroes supported by the Pres byterians.
 Special attention is to be devoted to Harbison college at Abbeville. S. C., which was endowed by the late S. P. Harbison of Allegheny The institution has encountered many difficulties due to race prejudces. The white popula- tion of the community protested against it's establishment and finally drove it's president away. The college closed for a time and it reopened on a smaller scale. It has always been hadicapped by this race prejudice, according to re- ports made to the church boards They will also visit Palatka, Fla, and other towns where schools for negroes are maintained.

The proeue1- ings, which were conducted on behalf of North Carolina by former Representative P. A. Woodward and Judge R. w. Win ston. consisted merely of an examination of the indexes of vouchers on which eX- penditures were made by the Southern Railway company from July 1, 1905. to July 1, 1907, the period causing such an examination as Master Montgomery fas ruled has admissible Heretofore the vouchers themselves have been examined and the work now being done is to de- termine whether the vouchers are the in dexes correspond.

One of the advantages of Grape-Nuts food is that it is pre-digested in the process of manufacture.
 The starch contained in the wheat and barley is transformed into grape sugar by exactly the same method as this process is carried on in the human body, that is, by the use of moisture and long exposure to moderate warmth, which grows the diastase in the grains, then long baking completes the re- markable change from starch to grape sugar.
 Therefore, the most delicate stomach can handle Grape-Nuts and the food is quickly absorbed into the blood and tissue-certain parts of i. going di- recty to build and nouris1 the brain and nerve centres. "There's a Rea- son.' cN

Let Us Be Thankful.

From the New Broadway Magazine
 Let's see,' said the Idiot Thanks giving day comes this month doesn't it?"
 Docs it?' said the Pessimist
 'Of course-November." said the Idiot You're required by law to be thankful on the last Thursday of November in every year"
 They'll have hard time enforcing that law this year. growled the Pessi- mist.
 "Cheer up," said the Idiot. There's lots of things to be thankful for"
 "Name a few" said the Pessimist
 "Well, the supreme court hasn't been abolished yet" said the Idiot. Nobody lynched any judges this year. We haven't seen any mobs walking up Fifth avenue and making fireworks of the houses of the rich. Bill Devery Is still dead. Je- rome still expects to do something some time or other. If Standard oil pays that fine and the administration declares dividend with it we'll all come in for about 37 cents apiece. Andrew Carnegie hasn't given New York any more libraries this month. George Conan hasn't made one-act musical vaudeville turn out or Hamlet and Anthony Comstock mas succeeded in reforming so materially that he can't see anything indecent in the Dodge statue on Herald Square. Nothing to be thankful for By Jove-if those aren't blessings what are?"
 'I notice Platt and Depew are still in the Senate" said the Pessimist.
 .'Yes-that's another thing to be thank ful for.' said the Idiot If they'll only keep still in the Senate our. cup of hap piness will be overfiowng. and I shall be able to eat my pumpkin pie and welsh. rabbit with cranberry sauce with relish.

REFUSE INVITATIONS

thought in the same church in Amer ica than here in England" said Dr. Ingram. "It was like going into an 'tmosph ere where they are unknown.
 Tt was a great lesson to be present It the general convention of the churches in the United States; highly instructive to see millionaire from Wall street sitting side by side with a workingman, both representing New York. It was true democracy. There are no parlor cars in the American church. And then what services we had out there. Talk of lively services; talk of chanical ritual. Why, have heard the rafters shake with praise and there was no sneaking home aft erward, dispirited and discourag ged."

A Million Years From Now.

From the Bohemian for October.
 They were digging down into old New Jersey, but they didn't know it. They had never even heard the name, and neither fossil mosquito nor the skleton of a prehistoric trust had so far been unearthed.
 They were digging, digging. digging, What for? Chiefly. no doubt. for the sake of digging, but in q sort of sec ondary way they were looking for relics They hoped to find something that would prove the somewhat doubtful existence of animals in that region before tho Great Catastrophe. If they could only prove the existence of man at that remote period, the professors claim to immortality would be secure. Up 10 this time his enthusiasm far ahead of his scientific attainments. but he had managed to impart something of his own spirit to every man of the expedi- ton. so that. in spite of any and all discouragements, they cheerfully kept on digging.
 Then the learned professor in charge made critical examination and jotted down the framework Of a somewhat la bored report:
 Nothing like it has ever been known to science. Man never looked upon the like before. The conditions necessary to sup port anything so dissimilar as man. Tho skeleton is no more wonderful because of it's great size than because of it's pe- culiar composition and structure. It Is much to be regretted that the Trailer parts have crumbled away. but enough remains to show some striking pecularities-none more striking than the curious jointing. Nothing like it is known to anatomists in our day. Some joints seem actual ly to have been pinned together. This arrangement. taken in connection with the immense tendons with which the crea- ture was evidently supplied must have given it strength beyond our conception"
 But the twentieth century small boy would have summed up the situa ton thus: "Gee Can't tell rotten locomotive from bunch O bonesr'
