From the Florida Times-Union.
 A variation of current view, often maintained, was heard on Bay street last Saturday. A boy carrying nice rod and reel was accosted by two friends. to whom he said: Lets go fishing Almost with tears they admitted their mothers had strictly forbidden the pleas- ure. Then the first boy drew himself up proudly and replied: Thank the good Lord, I belong to my aunt, who is an old maid-you fellows can keep your mothers" Of old it was said "Palmam qui meruit ferat''

Join the Army

My sincere advice to every young not, is to join the army or navy. It will give to him a wonderful oppor- tunity for finding out just the stuff that he is made,'' said Corp. P. M. Fitzpatrick, who lived at 1036 South Thirty sixth street before joining the national guard at the outbreak of the hostilities with Germany, and who is at present stationed at Camp Wheeler. Macon, Ga.
 T do not consider myself over- patriotic, but I am glad that I joined the army and intend to put every ounce of energy that I possess into the business until the war is ended" "

A RARE opT1MIsT.

 A gay. light-hearted citizen, His like Is seldom met; To see him pass, you'd never dream That he was deep in debt. That prices charged for coal and food Do cause him grave concern, Demanding for his simple needs Far more than he can earn. What keeps smile upon his face, song upon his lips. Tn spite of life's hard usages And many wayward slips? A spirit strong that scars above The hard, unequal grind; Courageous still, though sorrows come And fortune prove unkind.

PASSING OF PRISON STRIPES

Prisoners were originally dressed in striped garments so that in case they escaped they could be easily identified. It was argued that since no sane per son would wear such an outfit, any person seen wearing it would eXite suspicion This, of course. increased the desperation of escaping prisoners, who as soon as they had left the prison be- hind. began to look about for a change of clothes, and this was often accom- plished by committing a serious crime. But the stripe theory was not easily abandoned, for as the years passed it became tradition that convicts should wear stripes and have their hair clipped. The stripes and hair clipping became a part of prison punishment.
 But in the more progressive states where new ideas in prison management have phoved their worth, the stripe has given way to the gray suit. In New York state there is now not a jail or prison where prisoners are required to wear stripes.
