THE FELLOW THAT MAKES
us LAUGH

We crown the great artists with laure
And sing to them 'paeans of praise;
We banquet the makers of cities
And lift them TO fame in our lays.
But want TO pay one little tribute
Less gaudy than earnest by half
And i want to send my wreath of roses
To the fellow that makes us Taught
You know how it is who have labored,
And worried and fretted, all day,
To meet with, in person or paper,
The fellow who laughs it away;
Who takes us when least we expect it
And turns us from sorrow to cheer,
With twist of thought that's so funny
Our troubles at once disappear.
i tell you, he's worth all the ages
Can give him of praise and of love,
Who has helped us to look out trouble
To the peace of the blue skies above
And to feel that no matter what happens
Wen do all we can to go on
With our hope and faith on the promise
OF better day surely to dawn.
He may not put pence in our purses,
Nor help us grow wealthy and grand,
But he teaches us all our reverses
Are lessons that help us to stand
In the face of the blight and the battle
And 60 forth again to the fray
With spirit of sunshine and laughter
That viii chase every trouble away.
Oh, here's to the king and the captain,
And here's to the soldiers in line;
And here's to the man in the paper
! think ! can see his eyes shine
The actor, the artist the genius,
Whoever he is, with his ehaff--
j want to send my wreath of roses
To the fellow that makes AS taught

TOO MUCH LAND.

There seems TO be an almost
irresistible inclination on the
part of many persons to cult
yate too much land. Land well
cultivated will produce better
crops with less work than a large
area poorly cultivated The small
farm with the use Of brains will
do better work than will the
large one where only muscle Is
used.

til an early period in the last century,
It was the custom to keep the national
accounts. .5s@- 4
The tallies were notched sticks Of
seasoned willow or hazel, the notch on
the edge representing the particular
amount-the smallest for pence, q
larger notch for shillings and the larg-
est for pounds. '.-.- -5-
The system, which was first intro
duced by the Normans in the year 1868,
was not finally abolished until the
reign Of William w., and then only
with disastrous results. An order was
promulgated that the accumulated tai
lies, amounting to many thousands,
were to be destroyed, and they were
accordingly burned in one of the stoves
in The house Of lords. BY some means
or other the stove became choked, the
paneling caught fire, and in the end
the whole of the palace of Westmin-
ster, with the exception Of Westmin-
ster hall, was destroyed:
Some years ago a number of these
old tally sticks were discovered in
Martins bank, in Lombard street.

Do you know the time Of the dog.
When the fore6nger Of twilight be-
gins to smudge the clear drawn, lines
Of the big city there is inaugurated an
hour devoted to one of the most melan-
choly sights Of urban life.
Out from the towering fat crags and
apartment peaks Of the cliff dwellers
of New York steals an army Of beings
that were once men. Even yet they

human form and speech, but you will
observe that they are behind animals

lows dog, to which he Is fastened by
IN artificial ligament ',|->'
These men are all victims to Circe.
Not willingly do they become flunkeys
to Fido, bellboys to bull terriers and
toddlers after Tower. Modern Circe,
instead of turning them into animals,
has kindly left the difference of a six
foot leash between them. Every one
Of those dogmen has been cajoled, brib.
ed or commanded by his own particu-
lar Circe to take the dear household
pet out for an airing. '.->.''-'
By their faces and manner you can
tell that the dogmen are bound in q
hopeless enchantment. Never will
there come even dog catcher Ulysses
to remove the spell.
The faces Of some are stonily set.
They are past the commiseration, the
curiosity or the jeers of their fellow

ly advancing increment of number why
not 10000, or any other number? Or.
again, If the loss Of a single hair does
not make a man bald, why should the

inferentially the loss Of all?
If, then, no addition or subtraction
of unit can transform small num-
ber Of wheat grains into a heap or a
full head of hair into bald head, how
is it possible that either transition
should ever be accomplished?

and let it fall on the ground, and it
makes no noise. Take every grain in
succession Of 10000, let the same hap.

Il 10 Becoming to Women Who Can't

1t looks very much as though the
straight line of the skirt from waist to

months ago in the vernacular of fash

For two years it has been quite con

6etrothale In Holland.

In certain parts of Holland when
young man thinks he loves a girl he
asks for match to light his cigar
at the door Of the beloved ones home.
This is done to let the parents know
that something is intended, and If the
visit Is repeated and the same thing
occurs no doubt is left In the minds of
the girls parents, and they immediate
" proceed to investigate the young
mans character and antecedents
When he calls third time they are
prepared to give him an answer. II his
suit is looked upon favorably he is
given match. If refused he produces
his own match, lights his cigar and
walks away. If favorable answer
is given he steps forward and joins
hands with the girl. While the engage
ment is by no means settled fact
even at this important stage, it is stat
ed as truth that IL, on the occasion
Of the young mans third visit, his in
amorata offers him second cigar and
he smokes it in the house the engage

WHERE THE WEST BEGINS.

~ UT where the handclasps little
stronger,
Out where a smile dwells a little
~ longer,
That's where the west begins.
Out where the sun Is a little brighter,
whittier,
Where the bonds of home are a wee bit
tighter
That's where the west begins.
Out where the skies are trif1e bluer,
Out where friendships little truer,
That's where the west begins.
Out where fresher breeze Is blowing,
Where there's laughter in every stream
let flowing,
Where there's more of reaping and less of
sowing.
That's where the west begins.
Out where the world is in the making,
Where fewer hearts with despair are ach-
ing.
That's where the west begins.
Where there's more Of singing and less
of signing,
Where there's more of giving and less of
buying
And man makes friends without half
trying
That's where the west begins.
