He KNEW ONLY ONE JAMAICA

Not Imagine the Possibility OF
There Being Another.

A New York artist, who had Just
returned from Jamaica, West Indies
showed in his studio some paintings
Of Jamaica scenery.
One day a man who had been stroll
ing through the studio stopped before
certain picture and said: What Is
this?"
"a scene in jamaica" said the art
list.
jamaica" repeated the visitor.
That's strange l don't remember
ever seeing anything like that In
jamaica"
"You have been there. them" asked
the artist.
81 live there"
Then surely you must be acquaint-
ed with this place. 1t is street
scene in the principal town of the
island"
The man from Jamaica looked at
the artist for a moment as If he
thought he must be daft. Then he
said:
81 live in Jamaica, and there isn't
a street in the town that bears the
slightest resemblance to that pic
ture."
The mention of Jamaica as a town
cleared away the mist.
IT see," said the artist, You live
in Jamaica. L. l."
Sure" said the other. rs there
another Jamaica anywhere?"

The Pildrim.

Alfred Noyes, the exponent Of pay
ing poetry" told good story at
Princeton.
"One morning." he said, my work
was interrupted by a westerner. He
rushed in on me enthusiastically. He
bruised my hand with the power of his
cordial clasp. He made me sit down
and write my name so times on Il
sheet Of foolscap that he drew from his
pocket-he wanted to distribute. he
explained, my autograph among all his
friends. He even urged me to write a
poem for him-to dash a poem of
while he looked on. This failing, he
would not go till I had read him
good half-dozen selections from my
works"
Mr.. Moves sighed.
And all the time" he ended, tho
duffer called me Boyes."
