Tell me not in mournful numbers that the old towns on the bum; rouse up from your peaceful slumbers and come help us make things hum. If we go to work in earnest we can make things hit high, "dust thou art, to dust returneth," is song of by and by. All the past has gone forever you can't call one moment back-and the future may come never, this is true, so help me Mack.

AN ODD KNIGHTS OF
 A FELLOW COLUMBUS?

LYNN, MASS.--The prize mix-up of the year has just come to light here, being the story of how George Witham got the third degree in the wrong hall.
 Mir. Witham had already taken two degrees of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. He was very nervous as he came to present himself for the third. He had forgotten the password, but mumbled something and was ad- mitted.
 The degree team got busy and, al- though the faces were all strange to Witham, he dared not ask questions. Then came the critical interrogation. At the answer the questioner, a high ranking official of the Knights of Co.,

 Say, where do you think you are anyway" for Witham had repeated the password of the LOOP Ex- plantations followed. The two lodge rooms are close together and one hall looks like the other. Witham had his dates twisted and was just week of schedule.

WILLIE'S PENNY AND
 THE MINISTER

Willie and swallowed a penny, and his mother was in a state of alarm.
 "Helen," she called to her sister in the next room, "send for a doctor; Willie has swallowed penny"
 The terrified and frightened boy looked up imploringly.
 "No, mamma" he interposed, "send for the minister"
 "The minister?" asked the mother incredulously. "Why the minister?" Because papa says he can get money out of anybody"

 The magistrate told him $2. Shak- ing his head, he mumbled: "kain't efford to pay that much these hard times" Nobody will marry you any cheap er."
 Wall, then, Susan, you'd better go back to the wagon-yard, while I go roun' an see if can sell the license to some other feller. I hate to give you up, Sue, but reckon, you'd better marry Bill.

 Our wife says that the reason it doesn't take us long to make up our mind about anything is because we have so little material. There's d lot of wild discussion As to what will be the issue in the national election, When the voters nit the polls; And diversity ot viewpoint Is the thing that makes us stagger-- Everyone mas something different, Till 1t aggravates our souls. Wife, she says the greatest issue Is the cost of storage hen-fruit, But my own insistent trouble Is the cost of gasoline; If we must, we can endure the Low grade food at high grade prices, But the cost of tires is fearful, When you're running a machine.

They met little old tourist from Kansas, who had had even worse luck than they. Gentlemen" he said, as they came up, "did you all hook that trout to once?"
 "To once,' they replied, in chorus.
 "All pull to once?"
 "To once."
