A Most DISTINGUISHED Guest.

During the recent disastrous floods
In the middle west the members Of a
theatrical company were temporarily
food bound midway between the town
where they had eaten breakfast and
the town where they had expected to
eat dinner. The available supply OF
food on board the train was small. and
there was no opportunity to get any
more.
Among the members of the company
was an English actor with an enor-
nous appetite. AS the hours passed
he developed magnificent hunger.
When the belated train finally reach
ed the dinner town he rushed into the
nearest restaurant
Here. serve me firstr' be said to
the manager. Il want a double por-
terhouse steak. some deviled kidneys,
a brace Of English mutton chops. three
baked potatoes. some other vegetables
and fine big mug Of old ale."
The manager Of the restaurant stuck
his head out Of the dining room door
and yelled to somebody in the rear:

HUMOROUS Qu|Ps.
The Sad, Sad World.

The sun has risen. but his rays
Are dull and cold and cherries.
The worlds world of yesterdays
Where men once hoped and women's praiD<
Was guerdon for the fearless.
The stupid only turn to gaze
From eyes that still are fearless.
The breeze blows through hedges where
Nests may be lightly swinging
The joyousness that once was there
Has been supplanted by despair
Where gladness once was ringing
There is a dismal note Of care
In every songsters singing
The rose Is dropping on the vine.
Its petals fall unheeded.
Fond eyes that once looked into mine
Have ceased to let me read the sign
For which | foldly pleaded.

ANOTHER CITIZEN APPROVES
IDEA OF MORE SHADE TREES.

Editor Telegram-In last Satur-
days issue of the Telegram. We mo-
tice an article headed. "A Word
About Shade Trees" We heartily
commend the idea suggested and
hope our City Council will take the
matter into consideration at once as
now is the time to set shade trees
II probably would be good idea
to let the City Council have the work
done and charge il up TO the prop
erty benefited.
In the older parts of our city where
shade trees have been set. they have
grown remarkably well and are an
ornament and a comfort to such por-
tions Of our city.
The setting of shade trees in front
OF lots and residences will cost but
trifle and will be an enduring monu-
ment to the progressive spirit of our
citizens.
All whom | have conversed with
on this subject agree that il will be
a wise move to have shade trees set
all over Lakeland. and we believe the
City Council will approve the idea.
Some have already expressed them
selves. fayorably. and one of our
most prominent members has ex-
pressed a willingness tn allow a re-
bate of the city taxes 10 the owners
for the cost of setting the trees.
Let us set wise to the situation
and get to work at once Yours truly,
