Altar a South African Storm


With the breaking Of the day ! went
outside. The country was unrecogniza-
bic. The land and the scenery which ]
had known FOR years were entirely al
tered. The very hills. piled high with
white hails.ones, were n different
shape, and torrents OF muddy water
poured down from all sides. And when
the red sun rose into clear bright
sky the scene Of ruin and desolation
was awful to look at. Buildings had
been hurled to the ground and were
nothing more than hills Of hailstones.
A large dam I had spent two years In
making had heen completely swept
away. In another dam which had re-
mained unbroken the hailstones had
accumulated and piled themselves u2
over twenty feet in height. There was
not a sign OF water IN this huge dam,
Just a huge pile of frozen hallstones.-

PRAISE FOR HIS NERVE.
congressman Congratulated Wallace
on His Record Speeches.

The staid old Congressional Record
has never been looked upon as a par
ticularly humorous publication, but the
issue which came out the other day
contains an excellent illustration of
the jokes that sometimes creep in I'M
der the "leave to print" rule, says q
Washington special dispatch to the
New York Times.
Dec 10 one minute of time was al.
lotted to Representative Wallace OF
Arkansas, and he managed to get three
long speeches in the Record which the
house never heard.
At the end of the first speech, as II
appears in the Record. is the observa
ton prolonged applause" at the end
of the second speech the note is Loud
applause" and at the end of the third
speech the modest announcement is
made that there was Sustained ap
plause."
AS a matter of fact, there was no ap
plause whatever when Mr. Wallace
completed his one minute talk. L
cannot be denied. however, that the
Arkansan member has been warmly
congratulated on his nerve.

A Burbanker.

A farmer who was up to date
In tones of glee once said:
81 shall not bank my celery.
I'll Burbank 1t instead"
You should have seen the crop he raised.
Most celery just stalks.
But his could run and leap and jump
About the garden walks.
Nor with 1t could a person find
The slightest bit of fault.
Among its well blanched leaves there grew
Salt cellars full of salt.
The farmer who was up to date
In tones of glee then said:
~ shall not bank my money now.
III Burbank it instead
You should have seen what happened then
With interest 1t grew.
You have to draw most money. but
His painted, sketched and drew.
He never had to raise 1t. for
1t raised itself, you see.
1t sprouted one fine pension and
A large annuity. -
And so the farmer up to date -
In tones of glee then said. -
'When you desire to bank thing.
Just Burbank 1t instead.
