Mending a Broken Heart.

An Atchison young thing had 6 heart that ached, her honey boy hay. ing taken his affections elsewhere, and her father recently shut himself up with her to reason with her. That honey boy averaged spending 50 cents week on you," he said. Here's dollar week to take his place. Every time he called he cleaned out the re- trigerator Your mother will see to 1t that your brothers do this in future. He kept you up late nights. Your baby sister is cross, and hereafter you will let the baby do this for you. He took possession of the most comforta- ble rocker on the porch. When you look at that rocker in future it will not be empty, bringing the pang to your heart that your silly novels tell about. It will be occupied by the man who paid for 1t, and that's me. Your mother and 1 stayed by you through collie and teething and are going to get you through this if we have to take turns spanking you. Now take your eyes off the moon and look at the dust around you,'- '--Atchison Globe.

George [. and the Stao..

3eorge I. was a lover of the stage and, as his predecessors had done, caused his servants" to play before him at court. In 171S his majesty or dered the great hall of Hampton Court to be converted for the time into a theater There, under the direction of Steele. "whose political services had been poorly recompensed by granting him some theatrical privileges" seven performances were given Among the plays were Hamlet" "Sir Courtly Nice" "The Constant Couple" Love For Money" "Volpone" and Rule a Wife and Have d Wife" Among the players were Colley Cibber, Pinketh. man, Johnson, Thurmond, Booth. Mills, Mrs. Porter and Mrs. Younger In former times the fee paid by the sovereign to his servants for a play acted at Whitehall had been 92O. For these plays at Hampton Court King George, besides paying the actors their ordinary days wage and travelling ex- penses, gave 1850 and added f2OO for the managers. The players were re- quired to act at any time upon recetv- ing a days notice.

 1t was i'll recognition of some snn. cially daring service of that kind that stuart gave him his promotion The delightful way in which the great boy. lsh southerner did it is best told ii, MT. E2Siestons own words.
 You're about my size. Cooke" Sin. art said, but you're not so broad in the chest
 Yes, am, answered Cooke.

 Cooke donned the coat with it's three stars on the collar and found it a if.
