AN IMPOSSlBILITY

Mr.. Alexander Horner was married
to a wife-who kept him. Mr. Hor-
ner was convinced that there should
be only one breadwinner in the fam
lily, so he had no qualms of con-
science over the fact that his wife
shaved in the double part of char
woman and washerwoman.
One evening Mrs. Horner returned
home after a more than ordinarily
hard day, and found her lord and pro-
tector in his usual easy chair before
the fire, at which he was staring
blankly.
What are you doing there, you
great lout?" asked the exasperated
wife.
"Just sittin' and thinkin,," came
the stolid reply.
This was too much for the tired
woman. ...

HER LUCKY FLUTrER

Mrs. Mufftup was a good old sort,
a comfortable soul. And, as she sat
in her cosy drawingroom, preparing
for forty winks after her substantial
lunch, the sight of miserable, shah
by-looking individual furtively gazing
up and down the road arrested her
attention.
Poor wretchw she said, and in the
goodness of her heart extracted half
sovereign from her purse, wrapped
it in a piece of paper on which she
had written Never say die" and sent
her maid to hand it to the seedy in
dividual.
What did he say, ANN" she in
quired, on the girls return.
"He only said 'Right-hop ma-am.
Strange" muttered Mrs. M, as
she sought oblivion.
That same night the seedy-looking
one rang the bell.
Here you are, missus," he said,
pressing $40 on the astonished old
dame. Never Say Die won at 10
to 1, and you were the only one as
backed it. Happy to oblige any time,

rived. Word Of their appearance spread
randy. however. and soon ell the setas
and available standing room were occu-

The Rev William Heggnson was not
perturbed by the incident. His sermon
contained no reference, implied or other

WILSON'S MEXICAN
PLANS KEPT QUIET
State Department Officials Do Not
Know What the President
Has in Mind.
From The Tribune Bureau

Washington. Jan. 4.-Oficials IF the
government would not freely discuss to-
day the report published in this morn
ings Tribune that another division Of
battleships will soon be sent 10 the MeXi-
can coast. thus increasing the main naval
force there TO eleven battleships 1t is
declared that no drastic action is con-
templated in Mexico in the near future.
Ohcials Of the State Department stated
plainly that they did not know what was
passing in the Presidents mind.
Despite yelled denials. however, there
is reliable information to justify the
statement that in the near future four
more American battleships VIII proceed
10 the Mexican coast. The information
which the correspondent Of The Tribune
has is that these ships. now scheduled to
20 10 Guantanamo, will proceed 10 Mex
leo instead.
one rear admiral stated tonight that
the ships would all go TO Guantanamo
and take part in the regular winter ma
nPuvres. After that, he said. some of
them would proceed TO Mexican waters
10 relieve the other ships already there.
This would be next month. When he was
asked yesterday whether there were any
plans for relieving vessels in Mexican
waters, on either coast. the Secretary Of
the Navy said there was none.
Inquiry to-day brought nothing TO con-
firm the reports that the marines who
are going 10 Culebra for advance base
work would be diverted 10 Mexico. The
reeiment which was TO have sailed yes
terday from Philadelphia was held up on
account Of the storm.
