HE HAD MADE NO PROMISES
Substitute Was Not Asked If He
"couId" Play the Game, but
Only If He "Would."

Although he will net get many op.
portunities of playing in cricket
matches this year, George Robey will
help to keep himself fit by practicing
at the nets at Lords.
The famous comedian has q great
love for the summer game, and he tells
an amusing story of one of those off
days, when everything goes wrong,
which once befell him. He was watch
ing q game when one of the captains
came up to him, explained that he was
"a man short" and asked him If he
would play.
Certainly" agreed Robey.
He went out to field, and chiefly dis.
tinguished himself by missing two
catches, fumbling the ball, and so on.
Not content with that, he made duck
when he went in to bat.
The captain who had got him to play
took things badly.
"Why, you can't play at all r' he said
sneeringly.
"Sir," replied George Robey majes-
tically, when you asked me to play
you asked me if l would, not if /
could. And so that's that. "-Pearson's

TAKING CARE OF FURNITURE
Simple Methods Constantly Employed
Will Keep 1t Looking Its Best
for Many Years.

White furniture and wood work can
be beautifully cleaned with whiting;
wiring a flannel cloth from hot water,
dip in whiting and rub well to remove
all stains. then wash off the whiting
with clean, warm water, dry with
soft cloth; the rubbing strokes should
always be with the grain Of the wood.
Wicker furniture should be cleaned
with a strong solution of salt and
water. Soap should never be used on
wicker, as it produces yellow tinge;
where very shabby-looking, wicker may
be refreshed by being painted. The
paint used should be well mixed and
thinned to the proper consistency. If
too thick it is apt to remain on the
wicker in Jumps.
Furniture upholstered in leather
cloth will last much longer if the COW
ering is occasionally revived with the
following mixture: Take one part best
vinegar, two parts of boiled linseed
oil, shake well together. Apply little
on soft rag and afterward polish
with silk buster or an old chamois
leather.
When cleaning upholstered furniture
1t is often either impossible or incon-
venient to move it out of doors. In
such cases place a wet cloth over the
piece of furniture and then beat it,
changing the cloth several times dur
ing the process. The dust will adhere
to the cloth and will not rise in the
room.
Try rubbing your furniture which
has grown streaked and dull with
flannel dipped in equal parts of tur-
pentine and kerosene oil. 1t polfshes
quickly and much more clearly than
the expensive pOliShes.

From the publishing house conduct.

great number of sheets of foolscap,
covered on both sides of the pages
with fine writing, done in purple ink
and in a feminine hand.
Afterward, following his prompt
resignation from the job Of Judge,
Mr.. Towne forgot the title Of the
story; but the opening sentence ling

RETAIN CONTROL OF SELF
Without That 1t Is Unreasonable to
Think One Has the Ability to
Control Others.

The other day a man who makes his
living by fighting was struck by an
understood man, and instead of return
ing the blow he walled away from his
diminutive assailant.
This man exhibited much more self
control than the majority of people.
Men who class themselves as being
on higher plane than this fighting
man would have mixed Immediately
with the hot-headed individual.
What would you have done?
The chances are that you would have
rushed at the fellow with all your
might; you would have permitted your
savage instincts to rule you.
This proves that you have not as
much power as you should have over
your impulses.
You may boss other people, but you
are not boss of yourself.
Maybe you wonder why others are
forging ahead of you as leaders of
men.
1t is because they have check rein
on themselves. They have schoOled
themselves that they may be able to
guide others. Self-control Is the at
tribute of a leader.-Chicago Ameri-
can.
