WILL VISIT

NEW YORK, December 15.-William
A. Hazard Gord Tweedmouth), secre.
tary and treasurer of the polo asso.
citation, arrived today on the Lusitan.
ia In discussing the polo situation
abroad, the lord said that he had had a
talk with Major Edgerton Green of the
Burlingame club and that he had vir-
tually assured him that no effort on
the part of an English team would be
made to recapture the international
trophy next year.
The withdrawal of the Duke of
Westminster's challenge ended the
idea of team coming to this coun-
try until 1918.
Lord Tweedmouth Will remain in
New York for three or four days and
then will go to California for the polo
season at Coronado. where he, with
some other English players who are
coming over shortly, will make up a
British team which will enter for the
international trophy and also play in
the other tournaments throughout
Southern California.
Lady Tweedmouth and Lord All
stair Leveson- Cover, son of the Duke
of Sutherland, are in the party.

Easy For Him.

The Assyriologists were puzzled.
They had evolved a complete key to
the cuneiform inscriptions and had
read all of the tablets except one.
This one baff1ed all their efforts.
At this juncture an ordinary looking
man appeared and offered to decipher
the tablet. Glad of any help, they
begged him to try it.
why, it's simple enough" said he.
It's an account of a chariot race and
reads like this. AS they came into
the homestretch, Sardanscrappicus the
Scorcher began to close up the gap
between himself and Asshur- like
sin who was in the lead. In front of
the grand stand Sardanscrappicus
passed his opponent and won the heat
by a neck"
The wise men turned to the deci-
pherer and said: You are the ablest
man among us. Where did you amass
your knowledge Of Assyriology?
oh" said the man, Il don't know
anything about such things, but have
always made a practice of reading the
accounts of the baseball games, so any
thing like this is simply pie for me-

Look Before You Leap.

1t is a we'll known fact that many
otherwise sensible business men leap
be.ore they look when 1t comes to
the matter of buying life insurance.
This should not be the case, as this
one transaction is by far the most i'm
portant from a business standpoint in
the lives Of a majority of men. Some
men are inspired by desire to favor
friend or relative. That class has
been advised by a noted insurance
expert not to help friends in this way
unless entirely convinced that the con-
tracts and companies represented by
them were, to say the least, the equal
of those of other agents, but instead
to buy the best policy in the best COM
pany, and if the buyer still desired to
help the friend or relative to make
him an outright donation ten or twen-
ty dollars, according to amount of in
surance desired. Recently Mr.. ]. H.
Haskins, the Mutual Benefit agent at
Fort Gaines, Ga, along with the rep
resentatives of a number of other good
companies, were competing for the ap-
plication of a prominent citizen who
was determined to look before he
leaped. Among the agents after the
business was a brother of the prospec-
tive insurer. Mr.. Haskins showed
what the Mutual Benefit had to offer
and got the business, as all Mutual
Benefit agents do where there is COM
petition or the insurer takes the trou-
BILE to investigate.

A War SIoean.--It was during the
days when the president was wrestling
with the message. 1t seemed as II
unexpected kinks would occur after
paragraph upon paragraph had been
carefully ''ironed out" and then
something else would appear to open
the forms again-more reports would
be needed and more information from
the different departments. The slogan
seemed to be "Curtail! Curtail!" un-
til it seemed as If things would never
come right"
But during all the trying period
Secretary Knox could not lose his
sense of humor, and as he began his
fourteenth trip across Executive ave-
nue. to be conferred with for the thir-
ty-fourth time some one told him of
an acquaintance who had sold his po-
litical birthright for "a mess of pot
tage."

retary, with a smile playing about the

BUSINESS OF THE FLY.
What the Little Insect Does and

HOW.
Is he a harmless little creature,
beautiful, cleanly, and only a little
troublesome when he sings too per-
sistently or tickles your nose when
you want to take snooZe.
The fly is incubated in filth; the
more filth, the more flies; the vilest
vault is his home; the garbage pile Is
his resort; manure is his pleasant
place; the spittoon is his special de-
light. The fly having filled on de-
cay and reveled in reeking filth goes
out for a spin on the boulevard. Let
us interview him.
Pretty little fly, where did you come
from?
1 came from the offal heap.
Where are you going?
To your kitchen, sir.
Will you clean your feet before you
enter?
Oh, no, l will clean them on your
table and food.
Why do you go there?
To get your food, ostensibly, but to
carry contagion really.
Do you bite like a snake or beast
No, not much. l wing in and out
just carrying germs of death and dis
ease.
What disease do you propagate?
l have fine germs of tuberculosis;
an assortment of feverS and l just
revel in summer complaints.
Where do you carry your pack?
1t isn't heavy; my wings and feet
are loaded with invisible death to the
human.
You do not look dangerous.
Oh, I assure you 1 am harmless;
everybody has to die. 1 just hasten
it bit.
Do you respect wealth, rank or po-
sition?
Not at all. I poison you all.
Where do you succeed in getting in
your worst work?
Where there are the fewest screens
and where filth Is thickest.
What is your worst enemy?
Screens, soap and water, lime and
fly-killers.
Pretty little fly, do you want to kill
me?
| would like to, sir; I'll try.
Nasty, hOrrid fly, you make me
want to kill you, so here is for filth
removal, fine screens, cleanliness and
war on flies.
Let humans get busy. Flies are
busy.-Chattanoo Times.

She Told Him How to Manass.-H

She Told Him How to Manase.-He
met her one night at a reception and
asked her to go to the theatre with
him. She accepted, and as they liked
each other they went again later.
Then it got to be a weekly occur
renee.
Finally he got to thinking that he
was solid enough with her TO go out
between the acts, and so he did. For
several weeks he worked this and met
with no rebuff. But she was thinking
a lot, even though she wasn't saying
anything.
One evening she said, why don't
you go to the smoking room to smoke
instead of going to the lobby?"
Isis there a smoking room in
side?" he asked.
"Of course. You always say that
you are going out to smoke, and 1t
seems so useless to have to take your
hat and coat every time. And if you
thought of it beforehand you could
buy those cigarettes that you seem to
like-the ones that smell like cloves,
you know-before you come"
He is wondering If she is as wise as
it seems, or as innocent as it appears.

head over the wall.

cent of western New York. What
place is this?"
This is the ruins of the Forum"
responded the archaeologist.
And what might that be-" she ask

Amused, but glad of a chance to in
duct a fresh mind into his hobby, the

of history, the successive armies and
races that made that spot memorable.
