The success-though we say it that
shouldn't-of "Dulcy" in Chicago is
not All unalloyed Joy. Mr.. Marc Con-
nelly, one of the authors, crazed with
success, has bought and is wearing
pair of spats.
Tho Diary Of Our Own Samuel Pepys
March 12-To H. Ross's, and found
seven others there playing at cards. so
played, too, but with no success, albeit
used great skill and H. Ross, full of
vainglory and vaunting, used none; yet
doth he always prevail over me.
13-Up, and with my wife to Engle-
wood, and played three games of cro-
quet, I and E. Davis against J. Bush,
and Neysa, and they beat US two of
them, and by great prowcss and skill,
too. To the city, and to party, where
was Miss E. Barrymore the playactress,
so pleasant to talk to I was greved to
leave, albeit it was near three in the
morning; and Mistress Julia there, too,
in as fair a red dress as ever | saw;
and Mistress Alice Miller whom made
so highsounding speech to, to the
effect | was sorry she was going to
California. She gave no credence to it,
or pretended she gave none; yet was
it true. Played the game of acting
adverbs, and all went we'll till that H.
Harrison the tayle writer was called
on to act "laconically," which put too
great strain upon him, and he was
highly disgruntlcd
14-Lay late, and so to the office,
where all the day at my scrivening and
my income tax schedule, and home to
dinner, and with my wife to Mistress
Leola's, and home early and to-bed.
15-To the dentists, and so to the
office, at my stint and other tasks all
day. Saw this morning two men plow-
ing tennis-court, which sight made it
hard to work all day.

Addition-C. W.'s-to the Dictionary

The Psychology Of lnterestinxncss
Sir: You PROFOUND an ingenious query:
why will list of slackers be more In.
teresting reading than list Of recipients
| of the d. S. c." 1 offer the following
solution:
The average small boy. simply because he
Is mschievous. finds peculiar delight in
tying tin-can to cats tail. A mans
instinct is to rescue the cat unless--and
this is important-he was disturbed the
night before by serenade on the back
fence. Then he, too. would experience the
aforesaid peculiar delight, but would call it
justfabe satisfaction.
Bravery we take for granted In every
worthwhile man who serves his country
Refusing to serve comes close to being the
objectionable ain.
Publishing that list of slackers will be
like tying can to the tail Of every feline
serenadcr. N b T.
A mad March wag is agnes. Have

something about occupying a promi-

"Ah,' she said, Conspicuous by your
abstinence"

The Economic FltvveYite
Last year my hlvver--I was green rs srass-
Every fifteen miles used gallon OF gas
But "Hayned" carbure,or saved forty
per cent
OF gas no matter how far va went.

That "Carbonosir" saved another nrtsen
BY keeping the motor neat and el.an
And I attained the hna Ave

So now run with an empty tank
And put my money In tho savings bank.
