Worlds Worst Penman.

Most remarkable among execrable
writers have been John Bell, the bar
rister of whom Lord Eldon said 10
the prince regent that he was the
ablest equity lawyer of his time,
though he could neither read, write,
walk nor talk" Bell was a cripple,
and his Westmoreland accent COM
bined with his stammer to make his
speech unintelligible. The character
of his writings appears from his own
statement that he had three styles,
one of which he could read but his
clerk could not, while the second was
ineligible to his clerk but not to
himself, and the third baffled both
of them. Something similar is told
of Henry Ward Beecher, whose
daughter, acting as his copyist. had
three chief rules-that no dotted let
ter of his was meant for an i, that
no crossed letter stood for O. t, and
that no capital letter ever began a
sentence.

WHEN TWILIGHT COMES

When twilight comes across the quiet
land,
l crave your presence, you who under
stand
The comradeship of word and look and
smile;
The gentle talk and laughter, after
while,
And homeward walk across the wave
worn sand.
How will it be, wonder, when the
grand
Full midday glow of life has vanished
and
The suns last rays fall coldly on the
dial,
When twilight comes?
oh, that we two together still may
stand;
Undone, perchance, the deeds we hoped
and planned,
Tired and very old, yet missing naught
of tenderness or olden word or thought
God grant that life may leave us hand
in hand,
When twilight comes.

The Man and the Monument
Fred T. Frelinghuysen

The monument of Frederick It.
Frelinghuysen, a life-size bronze upon
a base of granite, was erected in al
most the centre of Military Park in
August, 1904. by the citizens of New
ark, through the mayor, the Board
of Trade and the Common Council of
Newark.
Frederick T. Frelinghuysen was
one Of Newark's most famous law
yers and statesmen. In 1861 he was
sent to Washington as delegate to the
peace conference being held there.
The same year he was made attor-
ney-general of the State of New Jer-
sey. He later served as United States
Senator from this State. In 1881
Frelinghuysen was appointed to sue
ceed James G. Blaine as secretary of
state in the cabinet of President Ar
thur. This is one of the highest offices
ever held by a citizen of this city.
The family of Frelinghuysen is one of
the oldest in the State.
Senator Frelinghuysen was born
August 4, 1917, and died May 20, 1885.
At an early age the statesmanto-be
obtained position in law Office in
Newark. He soon made name for
himself among the members OF the
profession.
The sculptor. Karl Gerhart. por-
trayed Frelinghuysen in the attitude
of statesman standing before his
hearers, composed and forcefuI, ready
to address them.
Karl Gerhart is also the sculptor
of the Seth Boyden monument, in
Washington Park, and it was his ex-
ecution OF that monument that caused
him to be selected for the Freling-
huysen statue.

THE PENDULUM OF TIME.

remember back in eighties when
Hank Frisby went to school,
Everybody in the village had him
doped out fer fool.
For he was so gol durn homely, all
the critics in the place
Said there wasn't no intelligence or
larnin' in his face.
He was tall, raw-boned and knock
kneed and as awkward as
COW,
And the gals they always passed him
by and never smiled nohow.
He was bashful and was awkward and
he seemed to have no vim,
And the fellows round the school
house always poked their fun
at him.
Nuthin' much was said about it when
he left our town one day,
Hardly anybody knowed the fact that
- he had gone away.
Once in awhile they'd mention Hank
and wonder where he went,
But nobody ever found out, fer they
didn't care a cent.
Nigh dozen years passed by and
then one day a thing occurred
And it caused more lively gossip than
the town had ever heard.
GTtdJ Ul6 duIO Cdlllt d-Lcdilh oOHO
the main street with a yank.
And the feller in the back seat givin'
orders-he was Hank.
Hank had been out West and struck
vein of ore both wide and
deep,
And he picked up half million while
our town folks was asleep.
When he jumped out of his auto full
of vigor and of vim,
You should have seen the town folks
all a-toadyin' to him.
He put up splendid mansion and he
wed the village belle,
And he has his dinner evenin's-or al
least that's what they tell.
He's mayor now and owns mill, 6
railroad and bank,
And there's no one in the village who
amt mighty proud of Hank.

ACCORDING TO UNCLE ABNER.

Luke Purdy has written song and
sold it to publisher. He says there
Is going to be lot of money in 1t,
and maybe there will be-for the pub
Usher.
Every man thinks his wife is goin'
to a lot of unnecessary trouble when
she cleans house.
Mrs. William Tibbitts has got a
black silk dress that she has worn
twenty-seven years on all social oc-
casions. The kind they buy now last
about twenty-seven days.
A statesman is a politician who
gets into the cabinet.
There is only one thing more un-
interesting than cold pancake and
that is a love letter written on a
typewriter
This world is full of wise guys who
can't make good.
1t is getting so the drug stores
keep everything excepting automo-
biles.
Some fellers are so fond of travel
that they get jobs as street-car con-
ductors.
There is only one automobile III the
world, and that is owned by the feller
you happen to be talking to.
A feller who spends his money for
fenceboard advertising is the same
kind of feller who hires 81 man
to fill $40 job and wonders why he
doesn't get results.
The boss has gone out Of style and
SO has the boss sense.
Everything goes In vaudeville and
sometimes even the audience does.
There amt a feller in this world
who hasn't at some time in his career
longed to be the snare drummer IN
an opry house orchestra.
