Submarine Bad DO.

As a crown is the badge of kings, as
three balls are the badge Of pawnbro-
kers, so the badge of a submarine off,
Ger Is a handful Of cotton waste. When
the half dozen officers of a modern sub
marine, clad in their black leather wa
terproof suits, come aboard a sailor
stands on the tiny gangway to receive
them, and to each he hands his waste
rolled in a neat ball. The reason is
that the steel doors and steel walls of
a submarine sweat oil eternally. The
Dteel seats sweat oil. The submarine
officer before opening door or before
sitting down wipes the oil from the
knob or from the seat with an uncon-
scious gesture like that of pulling up
the trousers to keep them from bag
ging. Jovial young submarine lieuten-
ants say that even the dishes sweat oil
on submarine trip. They say that
before filing their plates with meat
they mechanically wipe the oil from
them with their balls Of oily waste

HiohIand Mary,

Small as is the number of statues of
women in Britain, there are two of
one woman. concerning whom very
little is actually known save that she
was Of humble origin and was asso-
ciated with the life Of Scotland's great
est poet. Passengers by the Clyde
steamboats, are familiar with the statue
Of Mary Campbell, whom Burns i'm
mortalized as Highland Mary, which
overl0Oks the pier at Dunoon. There
was good deal of controversy about
the memorial at the time Of its erec-
tion, and the late Mr.. Henley referred
to 1t in his famous ESSAY on Burns
as fantasy in bronze" Liverpool,
with which Mary Campbell had no as
sociation whatsoever, has also chosen
to commemorate her, and a marble
statue stands in the palm house at Sef-
ton park, encircled with choicest blooms
all the year round.-London Mail. :

A Sharp Distinction.

A merlted ,retort is not always re-

administered to party Of intruding

set to guard the ruins Of College hall

fire conveyed keen but subtle re-
proach. -..- --

Nothing to Wear.

There are women who live to dress,
and the more frequent and radical the
changes are the better they like it. II
their pocketbooks can stand it, no great
harm is done. But the great majority
of women can't afford to keep up with
this pace. The result is that some
stay at home because their clothes are
not in the latest style, many are made
unhappy, and others keep up with the
procession, it matters not what may be
the cost.
If a man can wear the same dress
suit for eight or ten years and not look
like a freak, why is 1t not possible to
design an evening gown for women
that will be in good style as long as 1t
may be worn? It is absurd to hear a
woman say, II haven't a thing to
wear" when she may have half
dozen gowns all in good condition.

BRICKBATS AND POSIES
By Uncle Goshdingit 1868

Quality is the substance you give to work
into which you put your whole heart.
A ''goat" it what you usually get from
a person whom you have given kid. y
Some folks love their neighbors just SC
long as they can borrow their lawn-mower.
Some folks idea of "good time is an
introduction to the mysteries of a finger
bowl.
A 25-cent meal to hungry man is far
more effective than $3.50 sermon on
charity.
The Pharisee has his uses if only to show
the ugliness of the bigotry and hypocrisy
In human nature.
''Beauty is only skin Deep say those
that fail to consider the depth of drug
store complexion.
Some folks do not practice what they
preach because their tongue is in better
practice than is their spirit.
Why is it virtue to be bald headed and
toothless as an infant and an inhiction
after reaching years of maturity
There is hardly a finer trait than that of de
pendableness. 1t is the essence of loyalty
and magnet which attracts friends worth
while.
''The proof of the pudding is in the eat
ing of it, so it must follow that if you
survive indigestion, you are pudding proof
to it,
If some folks would eliminate the Grasp
ing" out of "grasping," it would obviate
that jarring sound that irritates the posses
sors of thin pocketbooks.
Make all the teasing fun you like of the
new BRIDES first batch of biscuits, they,
however, are as lucious angle cake compared
to the new-fangled breakfast foods that
look and taste like hay, sawdust, marbles
and sponges!

A WINNER

We received two short poems relative to
the Mirror; one appears on the first page
and is written by Sparrow the other is
written by "Walt Mason. the second''
Both of them we think are excellent. The
following acts as an index to this week S
edition.
The Mirror is paper that is published
in Pen, it is edited and printed by a
bunch of naughty men; it has poets, it has
sages, it has every kind of scribe, who can
write of all the ages and most any metre
ride. When looking at the first page it's a
cinch that you will see, the stuff that S
written by the sage who calls himself
HIS. Med; and at times you'll find
there're others writing for that first page,
too, who tell tales of home and mothers,
and the stuff that's good for you. Then
there comes the second page, where the
Editor holds sway and Pendennis is all the
rage with topics of the day; then across the
center margin the local columns shine, and
Sherlock goes chargin' while the others
fall in line. Then there comes the back
page-where the typos do it clean-No-
body and Beau each have their gage, with
Gosh Ding in between; and there are many
others, tho for space, l cannot name, but
they really all are brothers when it comes
to writing fame; and while each scribe s
sinner in the average public mind, yet
The Mirror is A WINNER among papers,

take it for a less interesting game
than it is. One thinks it is a game
of "gobany, where the point is to add as
many ciphers to the sum of his personal
fortune as he can. Another thinks it is a
game of roulette, where results depend en-
tirely upon chance. Another thinks it is a
game of cards, where skill counts for some
thing and chance, perhaps, for great deal
more. Another thinks it is a tug of-war
all that counts is pull, either in the literal
or metamorphical sense, but where brains
count for very little. All of us have met
just such men who are conducting their
lives upon just such theories. But in real
ity life is far mole interesting game than
any of these players imagine; for they are
not playing it for what it is worth. They
have not uncovered its possibilities. This
life game-game business compares favor
ably with game of ball, wherein good
play chance has but small influence; but
where skill and brain count for good deal,
and where, in the end, the ultimate success
of the game depends most of all on the
ability to play square and hard and keep
ones temper.
Any game would be an eighteen carat"
failure if you took no interest in it. The
best game is one in which you lose yourself
most completely, and say it sympathetic
ally and tenderly but assuredly, that no
matter what your fate or lot has been, you
are not playing your best in the game of
life unless its problems and dark mysteries
have aroused in you intense interest and
determination to play your part, in spite
of all your past difficulties, in true sports
man-like manner. Therefore, let US all,
each one, 60 at this thing sufficiently earnest
enough to become interested. Buck it
hard and venture we II all come up sue
cessfully with smile.
