Incident Overlooked.

A New England farmer. noted for
his uncontrolled temper, became con
yerted. according to the st. Louis
Republic.
A month later he was holding forth
to a number of fiends and relatives
gathered at the Thanksgiving dinner
table on the subject of his religious
principles. his entire change of
character and his kind and ~forbear-
ing disposition.
Finally growing enthusiastic in
his description, he called on his wife
to uphold his assertions.
Jane" he shouted. you haven't
had an unkind word or deed from me
since / got eonverted-now have
you?"
There WAS a dead silence; then
came in meek, yet reminding tones
from the other end of the table:

Only Three Loads.

Senator Cummins at a dinner in
Des Moines. says the Los Angeles
Times, was talking about a govern
ment contract that he deemed un-
fair.
This contract, if accepted" he
said. would work out like the farm
er's crop.
"A farmer, you know, leased a
field to a farm laborer and the rental
was to be o%ne-fourth of the crop
raised.
We'll, harvest time came in due
course, but the farmer was amazed
to find that he got nothing. The ten

to his own barn, but there was moth

To the #Pessimist.

To the Pessimist.
What's that? You've got the
blues. old scout?
And Trouble has you on the hip?
You tell me you are down and out?
Come, straighten up that puckered
lip!
You re pretty full of ginger yet,
And have some brains left in your
head;
So just cheer up and don't you fret
You're not a dead one till you're
dead,
Oh, yes, you've had discouragements;
You've seen your plans go all to
smash.
Just as you thought that you'd com
menced
To be some one and cut a dash.
But chuck away hat dropping frown,
And all your pessimism shed
You are not licked because you're
down;
You're not a dead one till you're
dead,
You'd plan great things for future
days;
Built castles in the air, you say.
The whole wide world vol would
When things began to come your
way.
And then misfortune had to come
And wreck your castled dreams, in
stead;
But don't you go to getting glum-
You're not a dead one till you're
dead,
You say there is no place for you
In all this big wide world, my friend.
oh. what's the use of getting blue?
Come, smile a little, and pretend
There's not a happier mortal now
Than just yourself, though luck has
fled;
Just smooth those wrinkles from
your brow
You're not a dead one till you're
dead
You are a lively corpse all right!
You'll need no coffin for awhile;
Why, you could make a bully fight
Right now in Knockout style,
So, roll your sleeves clear up, old
man,
Spit on your hands and sail ahead.
If anyone a win, you can,
You're not a dead one till you're
dead

while trotting to school along a Mas

THE old gentleman was nearly

Leaning far out of the carriage, the

were children, threw out a handful
of pennies. graciously exclaiming''

AS Togo stood there, looking out
upon the great bay, and dimly dis
corning the great range of skyscrap-
ers beyond, says the New York World
one of his countrymen related in half
awed whisper to men of the reception
committee the %anecdote of Togo's
naval battle of Port Arthur.
Admiral Togo called his officers
one by one to his cabin. Each found
him sitting at a wooden table, on
which, on a custom, lay a naked knife,
such as is used by the japanese to do
harikari-when they seek death as
the last alternative to honor.
I'VE meet the enemy tomorrow
Togo said quietly. There may be
no return
He kept his eyes on the dagger,
without saying another word. Each
officer saluted and withdrew.
