There is a very welI-known man in
Brooklyn who is particularly proud
OF his grandson. a bright boy Of four
years and a few months. But, like
all fond grandpas, he believed teas

TO himself-and he recently received
the shock he deserved The little lad
was playing industriously with a doll
when the proud grandpa said:

name must be Susie-not Ralph"
No word from the boy. who kept
right on playing with the doll.

ing 10 his fate. do you like dolls?"
The boy moved perceptibly. but

Dear little Susle-you used to be
a boy"
The boy lifted his head indignant
ly and with deep pathos, said: Grand
pa, ! hate TO tell you so. but you're
d. fool"
Great was the CONSERVATION OF the
grandfather and amazement OF the
mother. who tragically ordered the boy
TO his room, while she called atten-
ton 10 the tears that rolled down her
checks at such a fearful offense. FL
nally she told the little fellow that he
might be forgiven II he begged his
grandpa's pardon. But the boy be

said so. His mother sternly read him

How dear to this heart is the phono-

What found recollections my memory
stir!
Sweet Jane does the winding and turns
on the music,
While l sit and tell her the tunes

But oh, how it tears my nerve system
to tatters,
On, how it deranges my comfort and
bliss,
When Jane idly slips on an old broken
record
Which reels off a song that sounds
something like this:

For often when callers appear on

And topics are scarce, it is truly a

To bring out our dear little talking
machine.

happy;
The photograph pleases till Jane, so
remiss,
Forgets about winding the works OF
the treasure,
Which drawls out tune that goes
something like this:
