"Once upon a time" said daddy, there val a fox which was very
fond of grapes. He would eat them whenever he had a chance. One day a
he al running along a country road he noticed some grapes growing o. q
high wall just above his head. They looked fine and Mr. Fox thought they
would taste as we'll as they looked; but. try al hard as he could, he could not
jump up high enough to reach the grapes They were just beyond his reach.
"After trying several times without success to reach the fruit he sat down
and said: Well. l don't care. They are grapes anyway So now when
SOM n tries hard to get a thing and cannot have it and then says that the
thing is not worth having anyway people always mention sol grapes IL
has become one OF the best known sayings in the world, both in English and
in the languages of other countries.
There was a mar n the south nee who caught a fine fat rabbit In a
trap. He took him out alive and held him in his arms while he thought
what a fine supper the rabbit would make.
"Tet me see' he said to hmsef-how shall I have this nice, fine fat
rabbit cooked? Shall have him broned OF fried or made into a stwF All
the time, Of course, he was holding the little animal very tightly N his arms,
so that the poor bunny va almost smothered and could not get away.

will not do. He's SO fat that he will lose all his grease. / think, after all,
the best way is to have him made into a stew
"And when he thought how flint. the stew would taste with potatoes and
herbs and other things he quite forgot that he had o hold the bunny fast and
spread out his arm as he said: 'Oh, N.Y. yes! Rabbit stew will be just the
thing for supper @
but the rabbit did not think 80. AS 500 as the maj spread his arms
he gave a jump, landed on the ground and "a many feet away before the
man knew what he vas about Then the rabbit sat down IN the ground and
looked at the man as though he wanted to say, We'll, I guess you won't have
rabbit stew for supper! ~HE
But the mn made believe he did not care. He looked a. the rabbit shook
his fist at him and said: You long cared, white whskered rascal! You aren't

A Harmless Ghost.


A stonecutter in the days when
men wore knee breeches and wigs one
evening wished to add a few letters to
an epitaph ON a g%ravestone recently
set up. He obtained permission and
went with his tools and lantern to
complete his task. The churchyard
was cold and gloomy, and very soon
he lighted an extra candle to give more
light.
Suddenly, as he stopped over the
work, he heard a curious rustling hiss
He lifted his head and
looked around, but saw nothing. He
fell to his work again, but no sooner
was his head bowed over the stone
than the same faint, mysterious
"Hushw was heard again. He could
stand 1t no more, but got up and fed
for his life and was not consoled till
he was In bed and fast asleep.
The next morning he was sitting
with his wife at breakfast when his
wife said suddenly: peter, what is
the matter with your wig? 1t is all
burnt on n side!'
He gave a cry of joy, to his wife's
surprise. The mystery was explained.
The strange "Hush!" was nothing
more than the sound of his hair friz-
ling as he bent over the candler'-St.

Little Thinus.


In a small building which was once
Peter the Greats workshop in Hol-
land Is the inscription, Nothing Is Too
Little For the Attention of a Great
Man"
1t Is curious to note that many
things which have turned out most
useful for man owe their beginnings to
some slight accident. For instance,
the telescope we owe to some children
of a spectacle maker placing two or
more pairs Of spectacles before each
other and looking through them at the
distant sky. Their idea was followed
up by older heads. Pendulum clocks
were invented after Galilei stood OBJ
serving the lamp In a church swing
ing to and fro. Gunpowder was dis
covered from the falling Of a spark
on some materials mixed in a mortar.
The great results of a steam engine
may all be traced to the boy who sat
watching the steam which came from
the nose of q teakettle. Electricity
was discovered by a person observing
that a piece of rubbed glass attracted
bits of paper.
The art of printing took Its origin
from some rude impressions taken for
the amusement of children from let
tiers carved on the bark of a beech
tree.
The laws of gravitation were discov-
cred by the falling of an apple to the
ground.

Princess Victoria Alexandra Alice
Mary is the full name of the little lady
whose picture is shown above. She is
the only daughter of King George v.
Of England and has just passed her
thirteenth birthday. Princess Mary, as
she is commonly called, is just a little
girl, despite her high sounding title,
and is being educated according to the
simple rules that prevail in the Eng
lish royal household. Her great-grand-
mother, Queen Victoria, believed that
her children should be reared In strict
simplicity, and this system has been
followed in succeeding generations.
Princess Mary has been taught, among
other things, the value Of thrift and Is
sometimes seen at the postofice near
the palace depositing savings on her
own account.

DORY'S DELEGATES,

Have you noticed it? Practically
every man who has filed a petition
for delegate to the state convention,
or been selected as county commit
teeman is affiliated In one way or
another with Dory Strong's machine.
We predicted such would be the case
some time ago. Dory doubtless sees
defeat for the republicans this fall,
SO he is not so particular as to who
are nominated for the offices, but he
takes good are to keep control of
the party machinery.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1910.
REPUBLICANS AND THE ISSUE.

President Taft has issued the
keynote for the republican cam
paign. All good republicans are
supposed to be guided thereby. 1t
must be admitted that 1t is a pretty
good document, only he might have
given the so-called insurgents credit
for bring about the results he now
boasts of. But that's a different
matter. Our point is this: There
wasn't anything in President Taft's
letter. about how a school board
should conduct itself, was there?
No, the President does not concern
himself about such purely local
affairs. 1t Is plain that such mat
ters are not vital to the republican
party. a mar can be a good repub-
lican by following the Presidents
advice as given in his letter, and
still vote to keep the public schools
of Perth aAmboy out of politics, if
he wants to. President Taft has
told us what the issue is for the re-
publican party. We can all govern
ourselves accordingly. But the issue
LE.
for Perth Amboy is to keep the
schools out of politics. If Mr.. Taft
were here he would probably en-
dorse such an idea as the very best
thing that could happen.

MIR. STBLEY'S RESIGNATION.

The Board of Health has lost an
efficient presiding officer in the
resignation OF G. c. Sib1ey as presi-
dent. Doubtless owing to the recent
shahe-up in the board Mr.. Sibley
feelsthatahe should permit the new
members to have a say as to who
should be the president of the body.
It Is gratifying to know that Mr..
Siblsy will remain as a member of
thesboard and that the new mem
bers will haveothe advantage of his
experience.
It%4s to be hoped that the work of
the~healths department will not be
allowed to suffer as a result of the
recent changes. The new members
have~not been overly enthusiastic in
attending meetings of late. Perhaps
they-are waiting for the regular
meeting when the reorganization
willtake places~.+Granting that this
is the case, we trust that all will get
together and keep up the good work
for the best interest of the city.
There is need of an active health
department here. Political quarrels
and factional strife should not be
allowed to interfere with efficient
