PECULIAR TYPE OF ORATOR
Small Wonder That in This Bombastic
Age He Created Something of
a Sensation.

The speaker of the occasion was of
such unusual appearance that the au-
dience gasped or giggled, according to
the preference of its members, when
he came upon the rostrum.
Ladies and gentlemen" he harshly
began, poverty would be abolished in
this country If we could only save and
devote to some useful purpose the time
we waste in listening to Hons, Chau-
tauqua lecturers, pointers with pride
and viewers with alarm, singers who
cannot sing, babbling bards, parents
of bright children, bearers of mes
sages to the waiting world, and sun
dry other bores whom it is not neces-
sary to mention at this time"
And peculiar as was his personal
appearance, his procedure was more
unique, for, having said his say, he
bowed grimly and retired from the
rostrum-Kansas City Star.

FINDS HER IDEAL AT TO
Baltimore Woman Declares He Was
Worth Waiting for, and She
Marries Him.

Baltimore.-Miss Ida e. s. Young
20 years old, finally has met her ideal
and became his wife. Her first love
George Bell, mysteriously disappeared
four months ago, just after she bought
the marriage license.
Few women ever find their ideal
mates" said the 70-year-old bride, but
they certainly are worth waiting for,
even if the period extends over seventy
years" Her objections to Mr.. Bell,
her first choice, were founded on his
utter disregard for the golden rule. HE
never considered me-" she complained ;
but that's just like man." "Mr.
Russell, here" and she pointed proudly
TO her white-haired husband, lis my
ideal of a man. He is fair and honest,
and you can depend on him every time,
and that's what counts"
Mr.. Russell is equally pleased with
his wife, and remarked that he thor
oughly appreciated the fact that she
can cook. He was busily absorbed In
his wedding breakfast of coffee and
rolls, prepared by the brides own
hands. 81 like a woman who's not too
young" he said, while munching
"They always turn out more dependa-

TREE HAS "CANDY" FLOWERS
Indian Product That Rivals the "Gin-
aerbread House" of the Remen1-
bered Fairy Tales.

We have all read the story of the
gingerbread house" in the fairy tales.
Well, there is a family of trees in
India that have candy flowers, or
the next thing to it. These trees are
known as the "Bassia" trees, and of
the three important kinds, two have
sugary flowers and the third is called
the Indian butter tree" The petals
of the flowers are rich in sugar and
drop from the tree in the early morn
ing. They are picked up by the wom-
en- and children and are spread out
on mats to dry in the sun. A single
tree will furnish 300 pounds of flow
ers in a year. When fresh, the flowers
are very sweet and taste much like
figs. They are eaten fresh or cooked
with rice, shredded coconut, or -four.
The seeds of the butter tree are full
OF oil. and this oil is used to make a
kind of butter, and also for soap and
candles.-Popular Mechanics Maya

WANTED TO HUG MARSHAL
Mans Action Resulted in Adding An
other Regulation to Morality Code
of National Park, N. J.

Philadelphia.-An regulation Is
added to the morality code of Ma
tional Park, N. J. Hereafter it is
against the law for male visitors to
hug the borough marshal while the
latter is on duty.
In consequence of this ruling by
Recorder Jacob Bentz, Philadel-
phian, who gave his name as Michael
Mccall. but who refused to say where
he got the stuff that made him act
that way. was fined $3.50
Thomas McCrossen, another Phila-
delphian, who tried to interfere with
the arrest of Mccall, said he was
sorry and promised never to do it
again. AS he didn't do any hugging he
was discharged.
The marshal is Henry Weldon. He
was standing near the trolley terminal
when Mccall lurched up and tried to
hug him. Weldon coyly sidestepped,
and then Mccall became exasperated,
and took a swing at the marshals jaw,
whereas he was arrested. In the en-
suing scuffle the marshals shirt was
torn.
