Foolish ZIimerickS.

A bsplaning hemale namde Hettled,
II a singing weed patch one day
settled:
His wife tried to cheer him.
With sweet terms ensmear him,
But he said, "Oh, shut up. I'm too
nettled."
In his sleep talked a husband named
Tony,
But his wife thought his jabber was
phony.
Till he spoke of a blonde

Now the wife gets a large alimony.
There was a young fellow named Cy
A book on prohibition did buy.
A COW that he had.

The Limits of Life.

shht1 vi =
Inc sun at V goes down the west
At morn he'll rise again;
The winds that blow must sometimes
rest;
Clouds gather for a rain.
The man that's born some day must
die;
The man who dies was born;
Mirth makes us laugh; Grief makes
us cry;
Each morrow has a morn.
The blind, alas, can never see;
The deaf can never hear;
A slaves a slave till he Is free;
No distance can be near.
The wealthy have no lack of gold;
hungry wish for food:
We seek for warmth when We are
cold;
Deceive when We delude.
They all must wake who are asleep;
All sleep who r awake;
The friends we have we lose or keep;
The things we steal we take.
Yes. Man by Fate is tempest tossed.
And by restrictions bound;
Oft has he found what others lost,
And lost what others found

HerOism OF the TWenty-fourfh.

Few regiments have a better rec
ord for heroism than the Twenty
fourth Infantry, colored, says the
New York Evening Post. During the
war in Cuba the Colonel of this regi-
ment was ordered to detail 60 mel
to replace as many nurses who had
contracted yellow fever in the quar-
antine hospital.
The Colonel, recognizing the pc
culiar work to be performed by his
men who would go to the yellow fe-
yer camps, ordered out his regiment
in line, and said TO them:
Soldiers of the Twenty-fourth,
want sixty volunteers to help nurse
your white comrades who are suffer
ing with yellow fever"
He commanded, Volunteers, three
PAGES to the front, March,"
Every man of that line stepped to
the front.
But wait, Mark well the sequel
to such Christian heroism. 1t was
only a short time before word came
to the Colonel that half of his men
who had volunteered to nurse their
white comrades had been taken down
with yellow fever. A number of
them had died of that terrible dis
ease and 80 more nurses were wanted
TO take their places.
Again the Colonel called out his
black soldiers in line. He told them
what had happened, and again he
commanded
Volunteers, three PAGES to the
front, March,"
And again every man of that line
stepped to the front.

The BeIIhoy's shoes.

When the man in Gil said he
wanted to get his shoes half soled
and heeled in a hurry and wanted a
shoemaker to sew the soles on, the
bellboy theaght he scented an easy

The job will cost $50" an

"Aw, make it s1.25," said the bell
boy.

Later Ia the day the boy, with the

Item of so cents which he had tackled
on for messenger services knocked
at the door of GIT.

of the shoes. What's this-$2.50?
Why. they are not worth ii. Say,

Pretty low answered the bell
boy. 81 was just thinking | would

The bellboy almost dropped a tear
of gratitude. He murmured his
thanks and then. as he turned I o the
door, said: And shall | tell them
at the Office to charge the bill for
repairs to your a%eeount2"
Not on your life replied the
visitor. Il gave you the shoes and
you accepted them. DO you think
am going to pay for repairs ia your
shoes?"
There was something Ia the eyes
of the visitor that told the bellboy
to get out In a hurry. Then he had
to go owe and pay the shoemaker
$50 for a pair of second hand
shoes.
