LITTLE DIFFERENCE IN POETS
Mir. J. Fuller Gloom Comments on Strain That Seems to Be Con-
 mon to All of Them.

'It is related of Tennyson-not Ten nyson J. Draft, but that other and equally asphyxiating poet, Alfred Lord Tennyson-" stated J. Fuller Gloom, ''that at one time he took certain visitors up onto the roof of his house to show them view, which in all prob ability he wished to give the impress sion he had made. Presently woman
 and child were observed in the dis tance, running in their direction, and TennysOn would have it that they were hurrying to catch glimpse of him. A moment later bull was seen charging out from behind clump of bushes, palpably in pursuit of the two. There upon Tennyson, true to form, declared that the gentleman COW was also try ing to get a good look at the worlds greatest poet. From this we should learn that the bards of the good old times were fully as silly and conceited as they are day."-Kansas City Star.

LOCALITY MADE DIFFERENCE
According to Uncle siIas, Horses Evil dently Do Not Lead Fast Life
 in Boontown.

People in Boontown were used to Uncle Silas' way of talking and en- joyed it; but at last there came, as member of the summer colony, a man who had desire to set everything and everybody straight, according to his ideas.
 Whats the sense of your referring to that animal of yours as a 'colt'?" demanded this person one day. "HOw old is he?"
 "Well, he is going on eleven years" said Uncle Silas, mildly.
 'Eleven years!" sneered the man. ''Well, we should call that pretty an- cient for a colt-in New York"
 q think likely you would" said Un- cle Silas, without rancor, but with con- siderable firmness in his tone; "but perhaps 'twould be we'll to consider, sir, that this colt O mine resides in Boontown, where eleven years is pretty young for a horse" e."5Philadelp Ledger.

AT LEAST SHE MADE ATTEMPT
But Probably Girl Is More Than Ever Convinced Public Speaking Is
 Not Her Forte.

My cousin had always been a most timid girl, finding 1t difficult to say much even before home folks, let alone strangers.
 She was a member of a church so- ciety. One of the rules was that each member must take some part in the meetings. She had tried and tried, but could never get her courage up at tho last minute.
 Finally, the leader, to help her out, gave her some Scripture verses to read. They read as follows: And bring hither the fatted calf and kill it."
 Magic started the verse, and to her utter dismay, found herself saying: "And bring hither the catted half and i'll it."
 She could read no further and sat down amid giggles.-Chicago Tribune.
