I'VE treat the business man with

I mean by that is that I wish the
American business men could also be
left to settle their own affairs. We
are passing laws which prevent chill

WEATHER SUPERSTITION.

There used to be tradition in
England that January 25 was a day
which indicated the happenings of
the rest of the year. In the church
calendar it was the day celebrated in
honor Of the conversion of Saint
Paul, but no one seemed to know
just what relation this fact had to
the wcathcr-prcdjcting feature of the
day although old writers think
there must have been some such re-
lation. At all events, if the weather
January 25 was fair the year was
expected to be prosperous. Snow
and rain and fogs and cold indicated
caIamitlcs of one sort or another
war and the death Of much cattle
9mong them.

Little Pauline lived up in the

She enjoyed a reputation Of being
exceedingly sympathetic, and she

Of her erring big brother, who had
a weakness for tying cans on dogs
tails and "sicking" cats around the
corner.
One summer she accompanied her
mother, brother and small mascu-
line friend TO the mountains and
while there adopted tiny black and
white kitten. 1t was her constant
companion, living night and day in
her arms. But one morning the two
boys began TO amusc themselves by
tossing it into a mountain rivulet
that tricklcd before the door. One
boy would give it a pitch, watch it
crawl out on the bank mewing, and
then the other would take a go"
Presently Pauline fled to her
mother bathod in tears. ooh, NAM

Billy are throwing my kitten in the

proceeded to deliver a lecture. But

The Loaded Mule

The mule he is a funny sight.
He's made of ears and dynamite,
His heels are full of brick and springs,
Tornadoes, battering rams and things,
He's fat as any poisoned pup;
It's jest his meaness swells him up,
He's always scheming round to do
The things you most don't want him
to-.
The mule he lives on anything;
He's got lovely voice to sing,
And when he turns it loose at noon,
1t sounds like buzz saws out of tune
He stands around with sleepy eye
And looks as if he'd like to die,
But when there's S any dying done,
1t ain t the mule, I'll bet bun.
Some folks don't treat mules with re-
spect,
They say they amt got intellect;
Tha, may be SO, but if you've got
To go to heaven on the spot,
And want way that doesn't fail,
Just pull the tassel on his tail.
The mule he tends to his own biz:
He don't look loaded, but he is.

QUAKER CITY BEHIND TIMES
Statistics Show That shoes Of PhiIa.

Philadelphia doesn't keep its shoes
well polished. Washington and
Boston do very much better in this
particular.
A merchant who knows whereof
he calculates IS authority for saying
the Hub buys great deal more shoe
polish than does this city of inde-
pendcnce, and Washington surpasses
the home of the baked bean.
Even without these trade statistics
it would be apparent to any observer
that there are more busy bootblacks
IN Washington and Boston than can
be seen in Philadelphia. The great
number Of long, thin boot-shine
