WEAVER OF TALES
Glimpses of the Late o. Henry,
Famous Writer of Short
Stories.
DETAILS OF HIS CAREER
Spent Part of Life on Ranch-Pa'
thetic Plea Made Few Hours
Before His Death.

Put the pillows up higher. I don't
want to go home in the dark"
Only a few hours after this plea, as
pathetically humorous as one of his
own brilliant tales, William Sidney
Porter, known to the reading world as
o. Henry, one of the greatest Amer
lean writers of short stories in this
generation. died recently at New York
city. He did not so home in the
dark" for it was just six minutes past
o'clock in the morning when he died.
o. Henry was d North Carolinian,
having been born in Guilford county,
that state. forty-three years ago. As
a young man he went to Texas for his
health and for awhile lived ON a
friends ranch. 1t was then that he
decided he was better qualified for
literary career than to be a ranchman.
Biographies say that he was a COW
boy, miner, a sheep herder, a drug
gist, a merchant and an extensive trav-
eler before be began to write. He did
travel quite extensively. but he was
never a cowboy, he was not a miner,
and he never made a pill in all his
life. These yarns always brought
smile to his face.
Never Cattle Thief.
Just year ago o. Henry in an inter
view told this story of his life:
"A lot of yarns have been printed
about me, and none of them is true
It has been said that 1 was once a cat
tie thief. The nearest L ever got to
that distinction was going down to
friends ranch to learn the cattle rails
ing business. Another story is that
have been a miner. l never saw a
mine in my life. Then there is the
yarn that 1 was once a tintype artist.
So far as this is concerned, must ad-
NIT that once had a tintype taken
with my arm draped gracefully over a
lady's shoulder.
''Then there is that newspaper in
Pittsburg that printed the story that
when first began to write blew into
It's office. looking like a tramp, offered
manuscripts for sale and borrowed a

Pledge Cards For Anti kissing League.
Pledge cards are being circulated IN
Huntington, Ind. and at Hammond,
Ind, for joiners to the Worlds Health

on the mouth be discouraged The
motto is kiss not" A bulletin con-

IT'S who faint the sweetest JOY
And IN the shape of love destroy.
Lean shanks, sunk eyes and noseless face
Prove my pretension to the place.
The motto button is to be worn at
the throat, and the ardent youth may
soon expect to see the lovelight in his
nearing face put out by the pulling
