COULD DO WITHOUT JOHNNY
Daddy's Sober Reflection Resulted In
Restoration OF Cherub to His
Mothers Arms.

A Washington lawyer had call re-
Gently from a woman in distress. The
hubby, 1t seems, was given to the low-
ing bowl and spending more on his
good times than In the upkeep of his
home, 30 the wife sought the attorney
with view of relief in this unhappy
state of affairs.

she moaned. II left Mr.. Jones (which
wasn't his name) three months ago
and took Johnny with me, but / am

pious weeps by distressed woman.)
Now the attorney was man who
knew a mans nature. II think the
best thing In the world would be to
let him have Johnny" he remarked
with a smile. "Just let the child 20

Jones gets gay trying to brighten you,
and / bet dollar he is home at day

So after much talk the lawyer per
suaded Mrs. Jones to call her nubby's
blum the next time he came around
making Rome howl In a few days
Jones, half full, called and though the
mother pretended to put up a weeping
protest, she let the boy go with his
father. That night she did not sleep
a wink.
BY nine the next morning the bell
rang, the door opened and Johnny
came bouncing into his mothers arms.
The trick had worked. Just as the law
yer knew it would.
Jones boarded at a place where he
had to meet about fifteen men and
women every evening at dinner and
when he brought Johnny in to the
table the boy began to cry for mann
ma" The sterner Jones was, the
more Niagara-like the flow of tears.
Then men at table glowered at Jones,
the women expressed in loud whispers
their opinion of brute of a man who
would be cruel enough to steal baby
boy from his loving mothers arms and
tho landlady told him in plain terms
that she would not stand for such
scenes at table or such inconsistencies
around her house.
Nobody spoke to Jones after dinner
In the parlor and when he bore the
crying boy to bed he heard sundry hot
and uncomplimentary remarks follow
ing his embarrassed footsteps up the
stairs. 1t took a pound OF chocolate
candy, five funny papers" and two
Ice cream sodas to quiet his sorrow.
Day did not break soon enough for
Jones. He managed to pull through a
frosty reception at breakfast, then
,tarted for his wife's rooms.

Mr.. Richard Davey married, but new

the estate remained invested at inter

amounted to about 100000. Various
attempts we're made by Capt. John
Davey's six sisters to break the will
and at the end of 21 years the court
allowed the next-of-kin to benefit to
some extent from the income of the
estate.

Wally was hopelessly outdistanced,

they came, the college man desper-

turned for second time; he seemed
about to fall once more. Then he
righted himself, but he came on hob

The last thirty yards contained the
