Used to Kissing,

They approached each other from

Presently they met, and. careless of
the fact that dozens of eyes were
watching them, they kissed each other.
The meeting seemed to bring them
perfect peace; but, alas, alack, they
had scarcely been side by side twenty
seconds when a man approached with
fire of battle in his eye With cool in
science he raised the stick he carried,
and then-oh, horror-he struck a

HljnOR OF The DAY
Poker,

A California judge has ruled that
poker is not an American game.
To any man who has ever furnished
the lights and the lunch, the table and
the chairs. liquids and cigars for a
gang Of friends. and right on top Of all
that hospitality has been forced to
provide all the money also, poker
ceases to be game and becomes a
slaughter.
When guests will eat your sand
wiches and raise you out of hands
that you have won, isn't the California
judge right? Poker isn't game; it's
misdemeanor. When men will smoke
your good cigars and remind you that
you were 10 cents shy in pot twenty
minutes ago. poker isn't game; it's
grand larceny.
And on top Of all this, when your
guests depart, their pockets bulging
with your money, instead of thanking
you for your hospitality. they chuckle
among themselves and remark:
Let us know when you're going to
do this again, will you? It's the softest
thing we know Of"
Then you quietly put out the cat for
fear she'll sutfocate in the tobacco
smoke downstairs if she's left indoors,
turn out the lights and crawl into bed,
wondering what fool ways men had Of
getting rid of their money before poker
was invented.-DetroitF Free Press.

city Bows and Country BOYS.


They measured 1,723 young men at
Cornell university to find out how
country and city bred youths compare.
Here is the score: Country boys taller
by half an inch, heavier by three and
one-half pounds, with slightly greater
chest expansion. City boys have bet
ter powers of mental concentration.
At the piano they found that the coun-
try boy plays more poetry into his
music because he is thinking of the
woods, the birds, the streams and the
fields, but the city boy plays more
human feeling and sentiment into his"
The net result is that both are all
