THE FAMILY ALBUM

THAT'S Aunt Dot; Seems funny name for woman
i who weighed $50 pounds, but Aunt Dot had two Of
the most perfect figures that Heaven gave one
woman.
She used to diet any kind of food she could lay
her hands But it did good. She just naturally
grew ater and fatter until her husband threatened
to leave her. She didn't notice that she was getting
fat until one day she observed she was much taller
sitting down than she used to be.
Her husband a sort of lazy fellow and never
got home until early in the morning and sometimes not
then. So Aunt Dot told him if he going to leave
her any more than usual he ID have to start quick.
His name was Winsor, and he great fellow for
the ladies. He had been married fifteen years and he
used to say that he hadn't got the habit yet.
Uncle was awful mean. Auntie used to claim that
he was stngy that when he went to the town pho
tographer to have his picture TAKEN he asked for
profile picture he would only have to get side
Of his face shaved He and the barber had quite a
scrap to the charge, which Is cents for full
face and back of the neck Uncle always his coat
collar up, summer and winter SO he didn't have to
shave his neck.

By the time they got there the quarrel was all patch
ed up except the piano, and the minister accepted
other invitation for dinner when Uncle was q little
sicker and hoped it would not be long before he was
breaking family bread instead Of windows
So you it wasn't all bed Of roses being
married. Finally Uncle got job and made enough
money to support himself and left Aunt Dot, who
grieved herself into another fifty pounds which don't
show in the picture because it is only from the waist
up.
That on the next page is Aunt Dots former
friend who claimed to be sailor. But Uncle Winsor
used to say that he was fine sailor, that any
time q swan boat was wrecked on the park pond you
would read Of Aunt Dots sailor friend crawling ashore
That's how they got along, and it used to make
Winsor sore when he saw strangers pictures in the
family album between his own and Aunt Dots
No, it does seem funny that Aunt Dot and her hus-
band never got their pictures taken together but Uncle
used to explain that maybe that because Auntie
fat that nobody could stand close enough to her
to be together.

DINNER STORIES

Representative Frear of Wiscon- sin said at a dinner in Milwaukee,:
 There has been a, lot of talk to the contrary, but nevertheless the cost of all kinds of wearing apparel keeps unreasonab1y high.
 "A rich Milwaukee banker sat at lunchean the other day when a ser- want entered and said:
 There's a secondhand clothes man at the back door. sir
 "Good" said the rich banker Ask him if he can let me have a. second hand pair of shoes at a reasonable price,"
 The family were out of town, and the house was left in charge of a young housenaaid. On opening the door the first morning she found the charwomen standing there, obvtosss1-~ angry.

Billy Whiskers
By Francis Trego Montgomery

There had been a great many da- lays, as there always are at a raoa or any kind, and the boys were get 1ins Ided and nervous from waiting. when 8 whistle blew, the signal for hem to start
 from the numerous sheds emerged these queer objects, which looked more like crabs and Holsters corn,,,g out of their holes than anything az hght an dairy as an airship
 All eyes were strained to their ut most 10 see how these new aeropIanes were going to lift themselves off the ground
 It was just as Billy, Stubby and Sutton had thought and planned. Ev- erSohe was too busy to watch them CT pay any attention, so before any one could dream what they were up 0, they had Jumped in the seats be- 1de the boys they had selected to f1y Nlth,and were fast leaving the ground.
 But soon a shout of surprise went ID and every one seemed to call at once.
 Look beside you! See what you lave as a passenger!''
 Gordon and Florence cried and wrung their hands in despair to see their pets being taken away from them higher and higher up into the air, knowing that at each turn of the pfopeIiers, the aerop1anes were carry -ng them away further and further. and they both had a feeling that they would never see their pals again which was only too true. Billy had selected Dick as his companion as he mad the largest and strongest areo- plane. Besides, he was Gordon's brother, and would on that account probably take better care of him. and be less likely to descend and send him back.
 The truth was that Dicks mechanician had intended going with him, and had just stepped out of the 9eroplane to get something, and Dick, not knowing that there had been a ,hange of passengers. started up. He foticed some fur, but as his mechani- ian had worn a fur coat he thought illy's long hair was the fur of the nechanician's coat. When the tnechanlcian came running back, he called and shouted at the top of his lungs for Dick to come back and get him. But he might as well have saved his strength, for the hum and buzz of the propelIers drowned all sound of his voice, ,as well as the voices of the crowd who were cheering. And on Billy went, laughing at the discom- fort he knew he was making.

 Ffllingin, who turned in 5 victor les and 10 defeats for the Beaneaters Last season, was away off form for several weeks until he got back Into his stride and now Is helping the Braves pull what may grow into an- other Miracle Man drive.
 Dana's baseball life has been a hec- tic one When he broke into base- ball with the Albany, Ga, team in the South Atlantic league back in 1912 he was full of hope. How he clung to 1t during the next six years is g. mystery. His second year out found him with CordeIe in the EIn- pfre circuit. He served time with that outfit until August 20, 1914, when the Atlanta Southern. League team bought him only to send him back to Charleston in the Sally League.
 Tn August of the following year he was sold to the Athletics for the stag gering sum of s650 but the following spring he got return trip ticket after a brief tryout.
 Then the Cleveland club became interested in him and took a chance on him for $500. They closed the deal for him on June 15, 1916, and on July 1 notified him that he had been loaned to Columbus for @ couple of weeks. On July 25 he was given an- other ticket to Charleston.
 The next fall the Indianapolis Hoosiers got him via the draft route and gave him his first real chance. He proceeded to win 20 games while losing but nine for the Indiana team and as a result the Braves grabbed him the following spring, sending Crun, Covington and a. roll of green backs to Indianapolis for him.
 Consid ering the poor showing of the Braves in recent cam paigns FiI1fn- glib did fair work. Last season was his best one as far as winning games was concerned.
