An Artists Mustache.

The mustache was not viewed with
favor In England in the middle of the
last century. An anecdote is told of
the late Thomas Cooper, the English
artist, to illustrate. He was brought
before a magistrate In 1916 on some
minor charge and was described in
the police report as being fashion
ably dressed. with large mustaches. "
The Art Journal of the date, comment
ing on it, said that mo member of the
Royal academy perpetrates the atroc-
ity Of mustaches, a most un-English
affectation.' Mr.. Cooper became a
member of the academy a few years
later.

full George Bailey of the Huston Post
would have us believe Read this
from the Athens (Texas) Review.
Recently a member of the legisla-
ture-a new wrote TO lead
ing hotel at Austin asking for rates
during the session for himself and
wife. The answer was that $l95 per
month was the best rate that could
be quoted, and he wrote back, stating
that he did not see how it would be
possible for him to pay that rate,
when his salary would amount to only
$3.50. To this the answer was pompt.
His letter was returned, and across
the bottom was written in pencil and
without signature: 1T can be done -
Allentown (Pa.) Call.
The problem is, where does that ex-
ira $40 come from. Some will say
from the whiskey ring, some from the
railroads and some from the trusts.

When the annexation of Texas was
being discussed Aaron V. Brown said
in a political speech that he would IN
dertake to drink all the blood that
would be shed in the war with Mexico.
which his opponent predicted would
result from the annexation. Mir.
Brown served two ,e.ms as governor
of Tennessee and was a member Of
President Buchanan's cabinet at the
time of his death, This incident is
related to show that political prophe-
cies even of men recognized as states
public men don't always perform what
they promise.
