SOMEWHAT PARSIMoNIoUs.

Reference at a recent dinner was
made 70 the subject OF parsimony
whom this story was fittingiy recalled
by Senator Thomas Taggsrt, Of In
diana
Some time since a country youth
took his girl TO the county fair in
buggy, and as they were passing
through the booth and stands at the
approach to the grounds, the fair
one suddenly placed her hand on
Hezekiah's arm.
My. Hez," she exclaimed pointing
TO a stand where the ssvory odor
OF popping corn was filing the air.
Amt that nice?"
What's nicer" was the stupid re-
joinder Of the rustic one.

awful good"

turned Hez, turning his horse to-
ward the booth. Il will jes' drive

Norris to Run.

Senator Norris of Nebraska, who
asked the governor there to consider
his resignation, will run for re-elec-
ton, 1t is thought in that State. That,
too, in spite of the fact that among
Republicans there he has thoroughly
casugated last spring for his opposi-
ton to the armed neutrality and war
measures.
Reports from Nebraska are that the
Senator's party enemies have thus far
found no Republican anxious to op-
pose him in the primaries. Congress-
man Charles Sloan has been men,
toned IN this connection, and so has
former Senator Elmer J. Burkett, but
thus far neither of these gentlemen
has said that he would attempt the
task Of meeting Norris.
Ex-senator Norris Brown has also
been approached by his friends to
make the race, but he has positively
declined to do so. He opposed Sena-
tor Norris in the primaries six years
ago, while he was then a member Of
the upper house. Because of the Re-
publican split of that year he was
defeated. 1t was an out-and-out fac
tional fight and Norris. the insurgent,
won over Brown. the standpatter.

A LINE O. CHEER
EACH DAY O. THE YEAR.
By John Kendrlck Bangs.
A RECIPE.

A RECIPE.
II you'd have peace pick out some
distant spot
Where hurried mortals with their
woes come not
A place with trees about IT. nigh
some hill:
A home for birds set near some rip
ping rill;
And when the stress OF life runs
heavily,
And on your soul cares press per-
sistently.
THINK Of that spot. and let your
troubled mind
Dwell on its quiet joys. and you will
find
II not the fullness of a perfect
peace
At least some soothing measure of
release.
For half Of life Is bound up in the
way
Our minds review the light and
shade of day.
Who thinketh care will find but care
in sight.
Who thinketh Joy and peace will
find the light.

After-Days.
By ERIC CHILMAN.

By ERIC CHILMAN.
When the last gun has long withheld
Its thunder, and its mouth is sealed,
Strong men shall drive the furrow straight
On some remembered battle field.
Untroubled they shall hear the loud
And gusty driving of the rains,
And birds with immemorial voice
Sing as of old in leafy lanes.
The stricken, tainted soil shall be
Again flowery paradise
Pure with the memory of the dead
And purer for their sacrifice.

God Save the King.
God save our gracious King,
Long live our noble King,

God save our gracious King,
Long live our noble King,
God save the King.
Send him victorious,
Happy and glorious,
Long to reign over us:
God save the King.
Thy choicest gifts in store
On him be pleas'd to pour,
Long may he reign.
May he defend our laws,
And ever give us cause
To sing with heart and voice
God save the King.
To ev'ry future age
Shall story's brightest page
His fame declare:
How he babe discord cease,
knowledge and wealth increase,
And made the arts of Peace
His constant care.
See all his people throng
To form a rampant strong
Round our lov'd King;
And should a foe draw near,
Then all the world shall hear
Rise from our land the cheer
God save the King.

have been put on by Congress for the

New York. Oct 1e.
About ten years ago.
We used to eat
Out OF the same trough
In a boarding house.
In the Middle West.
And at night.
When we couldn't sleep.
For the terrible heat
We'd talk about
The glorious future.
And promise each Other
That whoever it was
Got rich first
Would slip a little
To the other.
And all that kind of bull.
That ballroom nuts.
Get out of cigarettes.
And I haven't seen him.
Since all that time.
Until the other day.
I called at his office.
And sent in my card.
And the fifth.
Assistant secretary.
Came tip-toeing out.
And whispered something.
And 1 said: who's sick?"
And he coughed.
And whispered again.
And got me doing 1t.
And I whispered.
About being sorry.
And walked right out.
And he followed me.
And told me to come on in.
And I did.
And saw my friend.
And asked him.
About the whispering guy.
And he said 1t was a part.
OF the efficiency system.
To talk quietly.
Not to disturb others.
And I said -oh."
And we went to lunch.
And he ordered soup.
And took an inhale.
And a wild gargle.
That sounded like water.
Going over Niagara Falls
And one diner.
Raised an umbrella.
And another.
Put on his ear NUTS.
