Strange how sad the close of the fly
season makes one said Henry E.
Dixey in MARY James Pa" It's be-
cause I once knew a f1y-I'll tell you
about him.
THE fly / speak of was drowning in
a pitcher of milk. I was in a inerciful
mood that morning. so I fished him out
and set him free. He gratefully walked
over the front of my shirt, leaving a
milky way, as it were. Even then did
not smite him, but let him go on his way
rejoicing. I was glad it was not ink.
That night it so CHANGED, dined at
well, never mind the name of the
place-but at any rate they charged all
that the law allowed. Did I tell you
that this fly never left me? Well, he
had been with me all day, more or less
bothering me, too, but 1 argued with
myself, the poor thing is grateful, and ]
should not be annoyed.
When 1 entered a cab the fly and
one lone dollar bill was all had. 1 did
not know what would happen to me, for
I had at least ten blocks to ride, and ]
knew that the pirate in charge Of my
cab would never be contented with a
little thing like a dollar. I had about
decided that 1 would have to run for it.
So, when the cab stopped, I handed the
chap my lone bill, but before I could
make good my escape he demanded tC

what I meant by giving him that bill.

How Public Is Made to Laugh

don't miss 1t at all. What need have
for talent when 1 can get a bigger laugh
by pulling out my dummy horses tail
at the right moment than most come
dams ever hear when they split them
selves into funny attitudes? Isn't it cas-
Ter and just as effective for me to pull
out a rainstorm of shirt bosoms than go
study under the masters how to get my
face into funny angles?
What is the use of my being funny
when / can have my tailor do the work
makeup counts more than an express
sion. A clever fail always gets the peO-
pie harder than a funny line. Fun can
be drawn out of doing things funny in
themselves as we'll as doing things in
funny way. Funny whiskers are easier
to wear than a funny smile, and they
never go back on you, are cheaper to
acquire and serve the same end.
THAT philosophy goes off the stage,
too. You see people all about you get
ting ahead without genius or talent, while
the highbrows and the learned stand still.
Why? They have solved the vague ele-
ment known as effects. They make
their clothes, and their situations and
their properties of whatever branch they
are in do the work for them. They get
the results just the same.
THE reason is that they have brains.

This speech was greeted with hearty

InsuIted the Clan.
The Scotch pride of ancestry is of the
most intensely clannish, overweening
character. Almost every Scotchman,
particularly of the Highland clans. is
positive that his special family ante
dates anything on earth, and you can
get a fight out of a S4otchman in a
hurry by insinuating that some other
Scots clan was alive and famous be-
fore his tribe was ever heard of.
They used to tell a story in Dunoon
of an unregenerate old sinner named
Mcpherson, who never went to church,
and whose dislike of religion was
equaled only by his pride of ancestry.
One Sunday a new minister by indus
triOus persuasion managed to get Nc
Pherson into church. The good parson
preached concerning Noah and the flood
that day, and after services were over
met Mcpherson outside the church.
