XaecinatinQ Tomhstones.

Probably the latest thing in the
medical line is the vaccination Of di-
rcctories, tombstones and doorplatos.
Such an achievement is sid to have
taken place, recently. in Brooklyn. and
is the first recorded case Of the kind
in history. This astonishing feat was
brought to light as the result of an
investigation by the health depart
mcnt.
This inquiry did not show that the
tombstones. the doorrlates or the d.
rcctories were suffering from, or IN
danger of, small pox. but it does re-
veal the most amazing vaccination
fraud. It is declared to have come
out of orders issued by high officials
who desired to make a record to show
in figures. Twenty physicians are
said TO have been sent forth with or
ders to report at least 100 persons
yaccinated daily. In some districts
this was an absolute physical impos-
sibility, since the 100 persons were not
there, but the doorplates and the d.
rectories and tombstones were there
and all sorts OF imaginary vaccina-
tions, marriages, resultant families
(Which were also vaccinated) were
brought about, making glorious rec
ord. and was only discovt' I'd by acct
dent.
About the only satisfaction the
Brooklynites got out of it is that they
hope now to visit gravcyards. read the
directories, and ring doorbells with no
risk Of smallpox. We might add shat
Brooklynites, however. object to tho
addition to the high cost Of living
growing out of taxation for the vac
Of unborn families.

But 'mongst thn lowly sheep and, kline,
And Graded in the straw.
He came, and low tho path he trod
Away s,-the greatest Gift from God
An erring world e'er saw.
As in the dawning eastern skies
The Wise Mfn watched the Star arise
That heralded His birth.
Thus we await Gods Kingdom come,
When man and all Gods creatures dumb
Shall dwell upon this earth
In brotherhood; when war shall cease
And Love and Universal Peace
Their banners white unfurled-
With tenderness and gentle sway.
Their watchwOrd Mercy" shall for aye
Prevail throughout the world.
Fling out your message, O Xe bells'
Your cadence silvery foretellS
The gracious times to be
When sweet Compassion, angel falr,
Onr this our land and everywhere
Shall brood perpetually.

A Wax Courtship.

The happy eXpadient of an ardent
through the carelessness of his sweet
heart, but. nevertheless, has laid the
foundation for new method of ac-
complishment by little Dan Cupid 1t
is. in substance, Photographic court
ship. 1t is the up-to-date. and like
ly to be approved invention in the in
eXplicable ways of a man with a maid
when everything else fails.
While winning a wife by the imper-
sonal means of wax or rubber records
may seem to lack the first essentials
of courtship, the possibilities are OBJ
vious!y great. 1t bids fair to s,,pplant
present and widely advertised meth
DDS. Certain advantages are readily
apparent: for instance. the cautious
woocr, could be certain of undeniable
evidence as to the extent to which his
courtship had progressed. should 4
breach of promise suit come out of it.
Likewise, the suitor anxious to wed
without delay could easily make love
to dozen girls at the same time, since
he would not have to be present with
either Of them to press his suit.
The origin of this new. machinery
was given the God of Love by the
fertile brain of young man who had
been ordered by 4 stern parent against
further appearance at the home of the
fair enc. The young man hit upon the
plan OF pouring his ardent sentences
into a monograph and then mailing
tho record to the object of his affec-
tions. A similar method on her part
simpified matters until. by a fatal
mistake she reproduced before her
father. believing it to be n popular
song. the record containing her would
be future husbands plans for their
olopemcnt. That settled the hash OF
that particular record, but little Dan
had had his tip, and is engaged at the
present time in widely advertising the
merits Of the photograph in extreme
cases.

Not Crocodile Tears.

A prolific New York writer, failing
in his efforts to conjuro n good story
on crocodile tears" has invented one
regarding elephant tears" leach as
large as q water glass; which lie is
circulating for the reading public. 1t
is told at the expense Of an elephant
known as "Gunda" at the ZOO. This
pachyderm is said to have formed q
strong attachment for n widow who
lived near. Tho friendship had grown
out of sundry and frequent baskets Of
sweets, and the elephant became the
slave of his fair visitor. He loved her
better than any OF his keepers. and
once when nc escaped and trundicd
down tho street, trumpcting noisily
with several frightened youngsters on
his back and as many badly scared
keepers in his wake. he met the Wild
ov; and was lead docilely back to his
quarters. In demonstrating his affec-
ticn, on two or three occasions, he
squeezed the charming widow so
tightly that She tainted. but became
quickly alarmed upon discovering that
his muscle was in proportion to his
affection. Then the widow died, and
ever since that day "Gunda' has been
the picture of misery. standing In his
cage with no interest in life. refusing
his food, and shedding. as we have
said. salty tears. the size Of which any
one of them would drown n wood
