"Why," he asked himself, holding
up the tack, Should 1 permit a little
thing like this to make me unhappy?
II were to give way to anger now

When a man becomes angry he pois-

And, after ALL how foolish it is to give
way to anger. The angry man is al

That's pretty fair. 1 never would have
thought of that word apostrophize If

cry. Other words would have crowd

utterance to phrases that possessed
no submility, no beauty, no rhythmic
cadences that might have soothed or

THE CHAMP, BITES DUST
King of Bronx Zoo Monkey House
Knocked Out.

Samson turned his face to the wall
in the monkey house at the Bronx
zoo the other night and would not be
comforted, says the New York World.
Samson is heavyweight mandril
and his black fist had put down for the
count every male occupant of the cage.
There came to the cage three days
ago meek-faced monkey from China.
The other simians sized up his three
feet of stature, his well-muscled arms
and clearly knit legs and agreed that
he looked good to them, though he
was plainly in the lightweight class.
He said in answer to questions that
he was of the Rhosus family and that
his name was Lii Hung Chang. Samp-
son overheard Lii and remarked super
ciliously:
when l was in the circus and took
boxing lessons, l know several
Rhosuses. They never went back to
China. They were nothing more than
mixed-ale fighters. I'm Samp, the
champ, and this is what l did to the
Rhosuses, Bing-o."
Samp's right shot out, but instead of
landing on Lis jaw it found only
space. Lii had sie-stepped with amaz-
ing ease. The chimpanzee could not
restrain an ill-timed guffaw, which d.
verified Samp's attention from Ii.
There was nothing more doing in the
pugilistic line until the other day.
Eight rounds had been fought furious
ly when Ii tented with his left and
shot his right to Champs jaw. When
Champ woke up he was alone in a
corner whittier he had been dragged.

Among the many gifts. beautiful or
useful, that this bridal couple received
was complete set Of cooking uten-
sis OF aluminium
DO you remember. Clarence" said
an older woman who had seen these
attractive pots and kettles in the
kitchen of the new brides home and
VINO was now describing them to her
husband, do you remember how black
the potatoes were the first dinner 1
cooked?"
And Clarence did remember It, for
that extraordinary incident of the
black potatoes in that first dinner they
ate together in their new home after
escape his memory
well, that" Mrs. Clarence went on,
was because they were cooked In a
new iron pot. OF course 1 knew that
new iron pots ought to be secured and
cleaned before they were used, and I
had scrubbed and secured that pot till
l was tired and got it just as clean as
could be, but still the potatoes were
black.
Next day asked our washerwoman
about that and she said that If 1 would
rub lard on the inside Of it and then
scour it it would be all right, and I
did that, and do you remember that
the next night the potatoes were not
half so black?"
And Clarence remembered that too,
and then Mrs. Clarence went on to
tell about the many other beautiful
things that this young married couple
had received besides those aluminium
pots and kettles, the sight of which had
called forth this recollection Of her
own married life.

he believed that the better trade
could be supplied, that is to those
growers who want good healthy
trees that will bear the right kind
of fruit and are willing to pay fair
price for them.
Most of our growers are inclined
to plant too many varieties of fruit,
especially apples" states Mr.. Wright.
