My wants indeed are very few
A nice string orchestra or two
To play at even when dine;
A stable and q limousine;
A house IN town, and In the hills
A bungalow devoid OF frilis;
A house. boat down In Floridee,
A cottage somewhere by the sea;
A library In which TO ind
The wisdom OF all human kind;
Well stocked with poets, and with tales
In which tho action mover fails;
A navy smnll--stoam, sail and gas;
A farm replete with garden sass;
A game preserve well stocked with

And pastures filled with lowing herds
An ice box crammcd from base TO chin
With canvasback and terrapin;
A man to rhoo away tho fiies
When lazy summer round me lies;
Another one in winter cold
To keep the furnace bltthe and bold;
An opera-box three nights week;
A club or two in which to seek
Relief from sudden loneliness,
Which on the best Of us will press;
Some high official sinecure
With salary that's safe and sufb;
And then million cash allow
For things cannot think OF now
Give me but these, and you will see
You'll hear but few complaints from

MORE THAN NATIVES COULD

A native.born American member OF
a party Of four business men who
often lunched together, took great
delight In joking the others on their
foreign birth, says Everybody's.
"tts all very we'll for you fellows

come t0 think OF u, you're really only
intruders. Not one of you was born
here. You're welcome to this coun.

to forget what you owe us natives

party, thoughtfully. Maybe. But

JOsIAR's HORSE TRADE

"Josiah," said Aunt Susan, after
she had heard the particulars Of the
horse trade in which l,er husband
had apparently nnisllcd a poor second,
you're the worst f0ol ever seen.
Laws.a-mercy, Amt you old enough
to know yet that when person
wants to git up trade with you for
something you amt anxious to git rid
OF us because they want To cheat
you? declare 10 gO0dness | think
sometimes you git 70 you know less
and less the older you grow. You
want never any too smart, a. far ~
that's concerned, and often wonder
how I've managed to put up with you
as long as ! have; but this caps the
climax. The idea OF trsdIn' on
horse with nothin' worse than the
heaves and mebby SPAWN or two for
that critter you've brought home.
It's that humiliatIn' l don't know
what I'll ever bc able TO say whom the
neiRhbors git TO askin' about IT,"
"l'Il tell you what 10 do,n replied
her husband as he laid his knife aside
and began sc0oping up the 4 pork
gravy with spoon, ~ the neIghbors
git to askin' questions that's embar-
rissln' you just turn the subject on
BY tellin' 'em about seudin' on SO
cents for twenty useful articles and
gittin' that number Of pins"
Then Aunt Susan wiped her eyes
with her checked apron and said
between her s0bs: M
"You always was such heud u
harp, Josiah! Aud, anyway, l want
you to understand IL was money l gol
for eggs my old hens laid. / hop,

A POINT WE'LL MADE.

Philadelphia Record.
Senator Money, OF Mississippi, sci.
dom rises to discuss public question
without throwing new light upon II
from the stores OF his information.
The other day, In the debate on Pres.
ldent Roosevelt's instructions to
Attorney General Bonaparte not to
answer the Senate's enquiry, he very
plainly drew the distinction between
''cabinet advisers" and the heads Of
departments. While the law creates
the heads Of departments, the Presi.
dent, Mr.. Money said, can make the
assistant attorney general, the assist
ant postmaster general or any other
assistant secretary cabinet officer II
he choose to call him into council.
The Senator rather surprised some of
his fellow. members by telling them
that there is no law on the statute
book that makes the postmaster gen.
eral member OF the cabinet Of the
President OF the United States. II
was a note OF three lines from Presi.
dent Jackson TO Postmaster General
| Barry requiring or inviting him III
attend cabinet meetings that made
him a cabinet officer. That was all
The conclusion OF the Mississippi
| Senator Is that when the President
assumes TO direct the head OF a de
partment not TO respond to tn,
demand of either house for inforEa
ti0u IL can be construed "only as
Misunderstanding Of the constitution
and the law, or as a piece Of officia
