The Jealous Youth.

The Office Boy-Yes, sir, I'll say il
every time she calls up.
The Employer-You mustn't dc

The Employer - What do you

new boy. An I said, eyes, ma'am."
And she said it was no place for a

NO CHANCE TO WIN GLORY
Youthful Recruit Found He Was Not
Adapted by Nature for
Drummer Boy.

The irreverent man had been
aroused by talk of the war to tell an
anecdote, and those about him really
thought that the gravity of the sub
ject would make him reverent this
time. He said:
AT the time of the Spanish-Ameri-
can war was a boy at school. 1 was
fired with tremendous patriotic ZEAL

to my parents and enlist as a drum
mer boy. You see, I was old enough
for that, and 1 was a robust young
ster, so l expected no trouble at all
with the military authorities.
so, instead of going to school one
morning, hurled to a recruiting sta
ton and told the officer in charge that
! wanted to be drummer boy.
"Ah, me! Though years have
passed, it is still an awful memory"
He sighed. Those listening were
much impressed.
Didn't they take you on as q
drummer boy?" they inquired.
No." he groaned.
"Wny?"
Because because l had no ear for
music?"

the Grand Trunk Railway, between
Jasper and Prince Rupert, run of
719 miles. This gives the Grand
Trunk Pacific nearly 1900 miles of
rail and water route on which oil

change, besides freeing the passenger

fuel, is the more important in that
it marks the first use of oil burners

up to the average. In some places
a good potato crop is predicted while
in other places the crop will not be
up to the average, and unless there
is much hot weather the farmers
state that sweet corn will be fail
