Learning Fathers

Learning Fathers Business
"What?" exclaimed the wealthy Cleve-
land papa, who had put his son to
work in order to teach him few
things. WHAT" Fired after working
one week?"
Yes, dad. I was discharged"
What was the trouble?"
"They said l was too green for
them"
What was your mistaken"
Il paid bill the first time the COL
lector called"
AHA! And now you see how foolish
you were?"
Yes, dad. I'll never do 1t again."
my son, you have served your ap-
premiership and learned your lesson.
You may now come into the Office with
me."-Ceveland Plain Dealer.

Bertha Krupp and her sister were

Bertha Krupp and her sister were
educated at home by tutors and were
attached to country life and exercise
although they looked forward expec-
| tantly to the yearly tour which their
mother gave them to some centre of
| art or culture. In turn they became
familiar with Rome and Paris, Vienna
and London, as well as the social life
Of Berlin.
BY the time she had reached woman
hood Fraulein Krupp had acquired an
aversion for fortune hunters. She had
met them everywhere. Mobiles and bill
ridden gentlemen whose only business
seemed to be search for matrimony
became almost unbearable to her. Al
though she was beautiful she was in
clined to look askance at every atten-
tion and to suspect 1t as counterfeit.
And then she fell in love. When not
all the opposition Of the court and Ger
man society could phase her the mar
riage to an ineligible" young man took
place.
DR.. Won Bohlen, however, was in no
sense Of the hoi polloi. He was the SON
Of minister of the grand duchy of
Baden. There was an American strain
in his ancestry, too, for his grandfath-
er served in the Civil War under
Grant BY the time he was 36 years
old he had been third secretary Of the
imperial embassy at Washington in
1899, secretary at Pekin in 1901 and
first secretary of the Prussian legation
at the Vatican in 1903-a career which
would have been considered no mean
offering to any but countess or q
daughter of the house Of Krupp.
Yet the heiress having made her
choice was married and the later ru-
mors of domestic discomfort may be
regarded as only a part Of natures
policy in keeping back something on
everyone.

Thouoht Fireworks Out of Place.

The storm OF sea was increasing
and some of the deck fittings had al
ready been swept overheard. when
the captain decided to send up dis
tress signal. The rocket was already
lit and about to ascend, when a solemn
faced passenger stepped up.
-Cap'n." said he.' I'D be the last
man on earth to cast damper on
any mans patriotism, but seems to
me this here's no time for celebratin'

1t is very, very sad to think of the
lives lost, but here as elsewhere. there
is only amazement and admiration for
the heroism and the gallant bearing of
the "Johnnies" as they call them, and
their great leaders.

are affeetionate before other people, aren't you? I don't think they can be anybody much, because their wedding presents don't make any great show.
 Her trOusseau-no, l haven't been there, but she hung her tailor suit out one day and know exactly where she got it last winter-Sellem's markdown sale, S21.5O. l happened to go shop ping with a cousin from the country, that's how I know. My cousin would nit buy one of the suits because they looked so dreadfully cheap
 "The Smiths table linen is just or dinary, too, and she hasn't any em- broidered or lace trimmed sheets and has an embroidered dresser scarf to her name-at least none ever is hung out to dry on her washday.
 T think that flat over there is a sort of bachelor apartment. There never is any one around daytime except a ser want. and at night-may'be they don't whoop is up! You can't tell me they don't play poker when the lights are going at o'clock in the morning And you can hear the things clink clear across where we are. Oh, I had to get drink of water one night-that is how 1 happened to know what was go- ing on in that apartment at that time.
 You can't tell me there won't be q divorce in the James family before long. No, that's their house over tehre, the one with the cheap window cur tains in the back and all the display in the front. He is perfectly brutal to her, scolds and fusses, and she weeps all over the place all the time.
 No, you can't exactly see in from here. but I had the opera glasses one day, looking to see if there were any wild geese or ducks flying north-sisn of spring, you lnow-and I accidental ly happened to sweep their windows. My dear, he picked up the hair bru Il and for moment l thought he was going te throw it at her! Think of liv- ing in the same house with a man like thatl
