aZine.
Needed q Sea Turn.

Captain Lane had retired from active
pursuit Of his beloved calling and had
turned his attention to town affairs.
Having succeeded in rousing the citi-
zens to the leed Of a drinking fountain
and also to the need Of two coats Of
paint on the town hall, Captain Lane
felt himself a valued and important
person.
One day he was asked by a sojourn-
er in the town to give his opinion Of
the present administration.
Its pretty fair" said the captain
slowly. "Of course there's things that
could be different and would be better
80, but on the whole it's pretty fair.
But now I'll tell ye-I'm speaking from
experience, you understand-things at

they could be run till the people o

A Correction.

In q town Of such size that every
one knows every one else it is often
customary to speak Of people by their
first names. even when one would not
do so to their faces. The butcher is
known as Joe Smith. the grocer as
Frank Parsons. the lawyer as Will An
drews. and no onfense is meant or
taken. One day friend was helping
4 teacher Of the industrial school to
put hats and coats on forty little men,
bers of the kindergarten class. Two
little tow headed girls attracted her
attention, and as she tied their hoods
she asked:
Are you Charlie Porter's little
girls?" Two serious little blue eyes
looked up as the elder replied:
His name was Charlie when he was
4 little boy. He's Mr.. Porter now"
