Made Up In Quantity.

An old colored woman, who had
grown gray and bent in the service
of tho family who had raised her from
childhood, was not gifted with an
overabundarce OF gray matter, and
her mistakes and queer ideas fur.
nished much amusement to those
about her.
One day Yorkshire pudding that
she had made for dinner did not seem
quite as it should be. and the mis-.
tress called Eunice and said: What
is the matter with the pudding,
Eunice; did you make it in the usual
way?"
"Yesm'm," said Eunice.
How many eggs did you put in
"six."
"sixn exclaimed the mistress;
"why, the recipe only calls for tour!"
"yesm'm, know" said Eunice;
"but they weren't very good, SO ]

From time almost immemorial 1t
base been the custom to celebrate
Hallow eve. and the date Oct. 81 in
olden times was the day the Druid
priests set aside for a great religious
feast or festival. 1t was called "All
Hallowp because it preceded "All
Saints Day."
Most Of the old customs, especially
hose of religious origin, when hand.

only their real significance, but are
often entirely misconstrued.

REICH IS ELIMINATED

Al Reich, a contender for the crown
of Jess willard, recently took on Jim
Savage in a ten.rOund bout at New
York, and when the scrap was over
Reich s stock went down to nil. AL
though lettering on the verge of d
knockout half a dozen times, Savage
out-generaled his opponent and went
through to the end.
Indeed, there were many who be
lieved that the New Jersey man won
and certain it is the crowd was with
him. The match was bitter disap
pOintment to the admirers of Reich. II
was regarded AS a 'set.up for him, but
1t almost proved his undoiHg. He
could scarcely have lost more prestige
by being knocked out.
There was no real reason why Saw
age should have lasted the limit. Reich
had every advantage, and in the first
couple of rounds landed smashing
punches. Savage rocked and reeled
about, but, like the crafty veteran he
is, held Al off, with his left until the
chance presented itself to clinch.

BOOST NATIONAL
GUARD AS RESERVE
Movement Grows To Place Militia
Under Supervision OF
Government

Throughout the United States the
national guard situation seems to be
causing an unusual amount OF discus
sion. Many advocate, in view OF an
oversupply of militia politics in many
states, that the national government
take over the militia and call 1t a
United States Army Reserve, having
a regular officer detailed as command
ing officer of each regiment, the balance
of the officers being commissioned In
the reserves and much in the same man
ner the states commission their OH
GERS now. This is not, OF course, any
new idea whatever, but 1t Is an idea
that seems gradually to be coming to
a head.
1T would be more cxpensiv" matter
for. the federal government than the
militia is now. But tnut it would
create far more effective reseTIe
force seems to be the general opinion
of those who have been studying the
thing over. There would be no rea-
son why all competent militia officers
now in state service should not be re

exist now would not be lost at all
