COMING WRITER OF FICTION
Little Jimmie Shows Promise Of Rising
to Er1inencs in the Realm Of
Imagination.

Jimmie, four years old, is going to
write fiction, if his maturity bears out
the promise of his youth.
James has not since learned the
value of sticking close to facts.
He and his small sister were visit
ing friend the other day. The young
woman had some fine roses in vase
and was very proud of them.
"See my big roses" she exclaimed.
1--WE have nicer roses than that"
said little sister, by way Of prellmi-
nary.
II don't think they are so big" said
Jimmie. 1--WE have some at home as
big as a house."
Just then the young woman's father
came in.
"How much do you weigh, Jimmie?"
he asked.
"A hundred pounds" replied Jimmie,
instantly.
"That's pretty good weight for
such a young fellow" the man said,
with d smile. "You see, l weigh 500
pounds, myself"
II weigh 1000 pounds"
"Well, l weigh million trilliOn
pounds"
Jimmie smiled.
II weigh all the words and numbers
in the wOrld,' he said.-WashingtOn

others to be read to the class by the
child.

ering the location, the presence of
