An Imprinted Mark Twain Joke.
Philadelphia Record. }

VI NI'HiluucIplla ftccOru.J
a reader OF the Nosegay column
rises to remark that there is one
Mark Twain anecdolc which the hu-
morist used 70 love to tell on HIM
self although it has not, to the
readers knowledge, ever been in
print. Mark Twain told the story at
a banquet OF the Lambs Club, in
New York, year or two ago.
1t appears that he had been sit
ting in his Connecticut home one af-
ternoon, when Il neighbor rushed in
brcathlcss.
"Mr. Clemens," he said eXcitedly,
"your old friend, D., who used to
work with you out in Frisco, is ly-
ing at the point of death. He has
been calling for you for hours. If
you come with me you will save, or
at least prolong, his life"
"My good man." said the great
humorst, cannot possibly go, much
as | would like to. am too busy a
man. | have tremendous pile Of
proof here, which has to be read by
tomorrow morning."
81 know" said the ncighbor, "but
| can drive YOU over in the machine
in very few minutes. It's only a
mile, and -
did you say it was just exactly
a mile?" asked Mr.. Clemens, sitting
up with interest.
Eyes, an exact linear mile"
''Then III CO." said Twain, rising
and drawing on his coat. "The Holy
Bible says | should go under such
circumstances"
The neighbor was greatly pleased,
but he could not refrain from ask
ing just where and how the Bible
had anything to do with II.
What Don't YOU remember the
verse in the Bible which says, IF any
man ask thee to go with him a mile,
go with him, Twain.'"

FOR B

Result Of Inflexible Rules Against Drunkenness.
1t Is safe to say that no other union, club or organization Of a
ny sort applies quite such heroic treatment to undesirable citizens
as the brotherhood OF locomotive engineers. One thing that the
brotherhood most strenousy insiss upon is that its members shall
not drink. Thirty five members were expelled for getting drunk
in 1909, and their shame was pubicaly proclaimed in the journal
The reatmen does not stop here by any means. The brother
hood will not risk the lives of its members or the general public BY
permitting a drunken man to run an engine. When a man has
been duly convicted OF drinking, and punished according to the
laws of the order the facts are laid before the proper legal anthori
ties on the road that employs him, and his discharge demanded
In one notabel instance the engineer of a fast train cot drunk dnr-
ing a lay over and disgraced himself. He wass tried convicted
and expelled the management was informed and the offenders dis
charge requested in regular form. But as the engineer had been a
good man the railroad company demur"ed, saying that he had not
Lecn drunk while on duty.
But, said tie brotherhood. there is no telling when q man
WHO gets drunk off duty may get drunk ON duty; and we do not
intend to take any chances on having a drunken man tearing
thru the country at sixty miles an hour, endangering the lives of o.
theirs. 1t is unfair to both the employees in your service and
to your patrons
The culprit was discharged. He can never be employed omI

Practice in Public Speaking.

BDy StlNoII itdIlAt ilON Ndit
able is the art of public speaking.
Hence, they neglect the cultiva-
ton of an art which would be
useful to them, not only in pub
lie life, but in the professional
and in business. Too late their
contact with business men shows
them to be lacking in fluency of
speech, in ability to express their
ideas intelligently and forcibly,
and to talk promptly and decis-
lively when confronted with ques-
tions demanding immediate ans
wer.
The best way to get this prac-
tice is to join some debating club.
The old-fashioned debating club
Is to some extent a benefit to
the young men beginning to take
an interest in public life; but a
better organization is one model
ed on our la%wmaking bodies.
Here the beginner gains conf
dence in himself; learns to think
on the spur of the moment; to
size an idea and elaborate it in
a logical and interesting way and
- acquit himself creditably when
assailed by the questions of an
opponent. The system of the old
fashioned debating club of pre-
pairing an article and later com
hitting 1t to memory and deliver
ing 1t, has not half the value in
making ready speakers.
An admirable example to fol.
low IS the Young Men S Congress
Of Boston. Its sessions are mod
eled upon those of the state leg
islature. and its officers are sim
liar. The questions of the day
are discussed in%telligently in a
businesslike spirit, and the train
ing received has proved of in
estimable value to many a man
now well known.
In many large cities there
are similar organizations. but in
rural communities they are rare.
There is no reason why this shout
be so. 1t is possible for any en-

Flags are Scarce

Little Rock, July Large national flags are scarce in ...vole Rock and the state is no5 the possessor of one, eve Il though it has a large standing militia. When Gov. Donaghey reached the new State Capitol Friday morning GO raise the flag on the smaller domes on which the staffs had been erected, he found no flags there. The matter was taken up with the Arkansas Ma. tional Guard, but no lag could be secured and city and county
 were next appealed to without re- suit. The government was then called on and from the custodian of the court house two flags were borrowed, one large and one small. These were placed at the top of the flag staffs until the state can secure couple of large flags of its own. Gov. Donaghey pulled the flag over the House of Representatives up to it's place.

lars worth of brick, stone and steel

represented by the structures that
would stand out prominently in the
view that would be spread out before
a man in an airship who would look
northward and downward from an an
chorage,' say, 1000 feet above Bryant
Park
The section above referred TO is con-
siderably less than one-quarter OF the
area of the Island of Manhattan. but it
is the part into which the more impor-
tant of New York's great buildings are
now being located that are devoted TO
public and social purposes. In almost
the centre of this district-at Fifth
Avenue and F.fty-hfth Streets locat-
ed the Hotel st. Regis. which has won
for itself the deserved title of Amer
fca's Finest Hotel" Perfect in every
detail of it's equipment and service. it
has a quiet. refined homelikeness that
conmends 1t TO the cultured and dis

of the very highest grade in every
particular and at standard rates.
