A Smart Frock Of RIue Linen


Colored linen with collar and cuffs

novel in the extreme and that can be
worn either with or without a guimpe.
The yoke and the short sleeves are cut

THE BOSS.

Imperious baby foot. so small,
When you have stamped, we haste
indeed;
Imperious baby voice, your call.
Shall send us questing, with all
speed;
Your ball has disappeared-the loss,
Shall be repaired-you are the Boss
Imperious hand, so warm and plump
From candy somewhat sticky, too
You point. and instantly We jump;
Your bidding we must quickly do,
Nor linger, lest our king grow cross
You are the Boss, you are the Boss.
Imperious eyes Of deepest blue,
Who, then, could daily and be child
When you command? We haste for
you
Each task is done ere you have
bid;
With hearts you play at pitch and

You are the Boss. you are the Boss.

THE PENITENTS.

A typical old-time "circuit-rider"
died recently in Alabama man
whose godly. unselfsh life will long
be remembered. Many were the &C.
ccntricities of this rugged old man,
and many anecdotes are current
among the Methodist ministers of the
State concerning him. He was noted
for two things-his denuncIations Of
sin in no uncertain tones and the
familiarity with which he addressed
the Lord in prayer.
On one occasion he had been
preaching in log Westinghouse in
the pine woods Of north Alabama.
There were several young fellows on
hand who had been celebrating by
patronizing a still hard by. After a
long. fiery sermon, the preacher made
a call for mourners, and soon tho
rude altar was filled mostly by the
aforementioned young fellows. The
ment and with keen intuition felt that
it was perhaps a lark" on the boys
part but he knelt to pray.
ooh, Lord" he began, heres a
crowd Of young fellows lmellin'
round your altar. They've been
cussin' and swearin' and drinkin' their
time in riotous livin'; but they've
come up here seemingly penftent.
They look like penitents, Lord, and I
hope they are. They weep like peni-
tents, Lord. and I hope you'll forgive
'em If they are; but oh. Lord, de-
clare they don't smell like penitentsl "
